Help The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama (by Lotus Seeds) novel Chapter 170

Chapter 170: Chapter 164: Offering the Loyalty of a Follower

The highly anticipated coronation ceremony, which Shen Tang meticulously prepared for, was disrupted by this small incident.

Such an event has never occurred in the history of the Empire!

Shen Tang is currently in the limelight, with various media carrying long guns and cameras, broadcasting the entire event live.

The citizens of the Empire all witnessed this unexpected turn of events.

Some took the opportunity to fan the flames online.

[Could this be the will of the heavens, that Shen Tang is not worthy of her position and should not be re-crowned...]

[I agree with the one above, when Shen Tang was previously a princess, she brought so many disasters to the Empire. It was only during her exile that the people enjoyed a rare period of peace. Now she is to assume her position again, yet the ceremony was interrupted. Perhaps this is a warning from the heavens to us!]

[I recall a divination blogger once saying that Shen Tang symbolizes disaster and that if she becomes princess, she will once again bring disaster to the entire Empire!]

[Ha, serves her right! I never regarded this fake princess; she got what she deserved!]

[The one above is wrong; the coronation ceremony isn’t over yet, so she’s not considered a princess!]

[I propose canceling Shen Tang’s coronation eligibility.]

[Yes, cancel it. The Empire only has one princess!]

[The heavens have opened their eyes, Shen Tang is unworthy!]

Public opinion on the internet fermented rapidly.

In just this short time, many Beastmen present saw the occurrences, feeling conflicted and uncertain about what to do.

Jia Lan angrily cursed in a cold voice, "A bunch of ignorant people! Is their brain filled with mush? If they don’t want their eyes, they can dig them out and feed them to the dogs. Can’t they see you’ve been kidnapped? It’s obvious someone has tampered, aiming to destroy the ceremony site!"

Shen Tang also saw the online comments, furrowing her brows as she spoke lightly, "People are not interested in the truth; they only want to believe what they see."

In such an important coronation ceremony, there must be people Shen Qingli arranged on-site, even if they couldn’t kill her this time, it was a good opportunity for rumor-mongering. How could they let it slip?

"Ignore them, let’s go." Xiao Jin protected Shen Tang’s shoulder, pushing through the crowd.

With the coronation ceremony in such chaos, and with her being frightened and accompanied by an injured person, the ceremony couldn’t continue.

To avoid further unexpected incidents amidst the chaos, leaving the site promptly was the best course of action.

However, they were unexpectedly surrounded by troops at the hall’s entrance, unable to leave.

Jia Lan looked ahead with a grim face, "What does the Empire mean by this?"

Lu Family Head, Lu Shen, slowly stepped out from the troops, a tall and imposing figure. Having reached middle age, his presence was even more cold and domineering.

He scanned the area with a cold gaze, disappointment in his eyes when looking at his son, before finally settling on Shen Tang.

His authoritative face carried a look of disdain as he spoke indifferently, "I kindly ask Your Grace to cooperate with the investigation."

Shen Tang said sternly, "It doesn’t seem like the Family Head is here to investigate, rather to abuse authority and settle scores."

Lu Shen sneered, "Your Grace, you misunderstand. I am considering Your Grace’s safety; the site needs sealing. I kindly ask for Your Grace’s understanding."

His refusal to mention the "Your Highness" likely indicated ill intentions.

Lu Shen glanced at Lu Xiao, suppressing his anger, speaking coldly, "However, I indeed have a request this time."

Before Shen Tang could ask, he directly presented a divorce agreement.

"I kindly ask Your Grace to divorce my son."

"As long as you sign this divorce agreement today, I will let you leave and will certainly strive to uncover the truth and clear Your Grace’s name!"

Lu Shen, having held a high position for many years, was no ignorant citizen, thinking this was divine wrath. He considered deeper interests.

In such a pivotal coronation site, the Emperor and Empress both declined to attend, indicating the weight of this princess in the eyes of Your Majesty.
