Cinderella Chef (萌妻食神)

See what your son has done!

He even met the Ximin ambassador privately.

He called him boss.Who is his boss?

What does she want to do? Is the enemy treason?

How can this be?

The box stored our marriage agreement. How could it be such a thing?

I don't care about you handing over this letter by accident...

or pretending to look innocent to clear yourself.

Xia Chunyu have a ambitions and endanger the country.

The evidence is now solid. Come on!

My loyal lady, this is a bit suspicious. Please don't make any conclusions so early.

Shut up! I did not blame on you sheltering crime and already worthy of you.

Loyal Aunt, do not be angry. Do not be angry.

Loyal Aunt, Brother Chunyu is not that kind of person.

There is something wrong.

Liu Li, you are very familiar with Xia Chunyu's handwriting.

You check it for yourself.

Loyal Aunt, handwriting can be imitated.

Long time ago, Prince Yu was being framed.

How dare you! Do you want to reverse the case for Prince Yu?

I am not.

My Loyal Lady, I can't guarantee anything else.

I knew Stupid Donkey so long,

he has no any interest in policy of emperor.

Not even to mention the enemy treason.

Someone wants to kill him through my hand.

But who can expect that...

you handed over the letter to Master Hou today.

Who can expect that I am coming to visit Princess Liuli at this moment.

It is too coincidence.

Madam!

Chunyu doesn't care about fame and fortunes and won't ask about matters of the world. He values friendship since young.

I think he must have been lured by promise of gains by an evil person and was momentarily confused.

Your Highness, please investigate this wisely.

As to who was the one who lured him, from what I know,

when Prince Minyu was banished because of his ambition and creation of chaos,

- Chunyu got along with him very well. - Shut up.

The letter can't be proven as true.

I made an indiscreet remark.

Your Highness, I found the problem.

The appointment with the envoy from Ximin was the day after at 7 pm

but the day after, at 5 pm, our family had a banquet.

It's impossible for stupid donkey to have rushed to Wuliu slope on time after he has done eating.

That's right. If Chunyu missed the family banquet,

it would have aroused everyone's suspicions.

This may not necessarily be so.

What are you trying to say again?

I'm here. Madam Xia, please speak if you have anything to say.

Your Highness, I don't dare to hide this. When we leave our residence,

towards the west direction, there is a river.

Wuliu slope is on the opposite end. If we travel by boat,

we should be able to reach by half an hour.

How could you frame stupid donkey in this way?

Didn't you say that you regarded him as your own son?

Yes, but I don't dare to hide this.

I have been to Wuliu slope by boat too

but no matter how fast the boatman rows or flies, it's impossible to reach there by 7 pm.

Your Highness, you must believe me. This letter is a fake.

Is there any point for us to fight about the time here?

He couldn't arrive by 7 pm? Does this mean he can't arrive by 7:45 pm too?

7:45 pm?

You can't even get your facts right and you still want to protect Xia Chunyu?

But I distinctly saw the time on the letter as 7:30 pm.

Royal Aunt, it was distinctly stated as 7:30 pm on the letter.

Then, perhaps...perhaps, I read it wrongly.

Did Madam made a mistake or was it stated as 7:45 pm on the letter?

What do you mean?

The meaning is very simple.

I have waited a long time for this day to expose your crime in front of Her Highness.

Ever since stupid donkey told me about the day of the assassination of Su Xin,

I trusted him instead of you.

You are in such a hurry. Where are you rushing to?

Do you think that once everything is already in progress, it will end if you slip away?

Of course not. The game has only just started.

I will never go back with you.

You are not allowed to do this.

But I don't understand what you are up to.

What's your benefits in getting rid of me and stupid donkey?

Thus, I could only beat you at your own game

and pretend to be slowly trapped by you.

Madam, it was really a great performance.

Whatever you always wanted me to do, it was the reverse.

It's because you wanted me to personally hand this contract to the Lord.

On this day, you also coincidentally invited Her Highness here because you knew that

I personally placed the secret letter in the contract. There wouldn't be any suspicions and naturally, I won't open it.

It's stated as 7,45 pm in the letter

but I deliberately changed it to 7,30 pm.

Because only the originator of the letter would know the original time.

Royal Aunt. It's stated as 7,30 pm in the letter. It has definitely been amended by someone.

Brilliant. It was definitely brilliant.

I only knew about your great culinary skills. I have never known that

your ability to change the story is that great too.

Everyone knows that I'm Chunyu's stepmother.

Thus, you resented me.

But I have never thought that you would use this fraud to frame me.

The handwriting in the letter belongs to Xia Chunyu. You amended it and delivered it too.

Who gives you the right to say that it's related to me?

Is it just because I spoke the wrong thing?

I think you created this situation for me to die.

Your Highness, please investigate this wisely.

- Your Highness, don't listen to her quibbles. - Where is Xia Chunyu now?

Why is he afraid to show up to face this?

It can't be that he escaped because of this crime?

Enough. How could you say this about your own son?

I'm merely telling the truth.

This clearly means that you have already planned this.

Enough. Stop fighting.

Please order to wanted Xia Chunyu in the whole city. Let's talk about that when we catch him.

Royal Aunt.

I can prove that this has nothing to do with Chunyu.

Mingyu?

Greetings, Your Highness.

- Get up. - Thank you, Your Highness.

How can you prove that Xia Chunyu has nothing to do with this?

Your Highness, in this bottle,

This is medicine that extracted from Kubu.

This medicine can help to disinfect wounds

but subsequently, I found out that it can be effective in another way.

Although handwriting can be imitated but the fingerprints are unique to everyone.

That is to say, if Chunyu really wrote this letter,

Chunyu's fingerprints must be on the letter.

Although his fingerprints are not solely on this letter

but at least, we can prove that this has nothing to do with Xia Chunyu.

Fingerprints test? That advanced?

Miss Ye, you encouraged me previously.

I could now create this solution which can test a person's sincere heart.

Then I'm afraid that I will have to trouble

everyone who has encountered this letter.

You must print your fingerprints on the paper, like this.

- Go then. - I'll go first.

Princess, the letter, please.

Your Highness, this letter contains the matches of your fingerprint,

and also that of the princess and the Lord here.

As for the fingerprints on the bottom row,

I found them on some books that Xia Chunyu frequently reads.

But this letter does not have those fingerprints.

This means that Chunyu has nothing to do with this letter.

This is a customary trick. Who would believe in it?

This is scientific evidence!

- Mingyu. - Chunyu. - Test her now.

Chunyu?

She didn't die?

Are you wondering why she didn't die?

It's a pity. I already stole her poison.

If you do not speak the truth, you'll wish you were dead.

The results are out! The fingerprints match completely.

This letter was exchanged by her.

What a daring servant. You dare to harm the Crown Prince?

Guards! Drag her out and beat her to death!

Wait. Duke, this is an important matter.

We must investigate thoroughly.

Such a lowly servant girl devised such a good plan...

Your Highness has spoken well. Suxi is just a pawn.

The chess-player must be someone else.

Suxi, who is the mastermind behind you?

I... I don't dare to say.

I am here. What is there to be afraid of?

- The person is in a high position. - Nonsense!

No matter how high his or position is, can it be higher than mine?

As Heir Xia said, if you don't speak,

there are many ways to make your life worse than death.

Your Highness, calm down. I'll speak.

The person...

The person...

The person is... Princess Liuli.

What are you saying?! It's not me. How could I harm brother Chunyu?

How dare you?! You wronged the Heir, and now you're slandering the Princess?

It's not like that, Your Highness. I have proof.

Wife of the Prince, do you still remember when you fought with him,

and on the way out, you knocked into the princess?

I stole your contract at that moment.

Madam, are you okay?

If you still don't believe me, you can search the princess' room now.

The contract should still be there.

Your Highness, I have always been under the instructions of the princess.

She realized that

I resemble the heir's maid, Qing Liu.

She deliberately send me there

in order for me to sabotage the love between the prince and his wife.

And frame the heir for colluding with enemies to betray the country.

You are spouting nonsense. There was no such thing.

Liuli, is that contract in your room?

Royal Aunt. It must be her who placed it there to frame me.

I didn't say that the contract is definitely in your room and you are already that sure?

No, Royal Aunt...Madam...

Royal Aunt, it's not like this. It's...

Your Highness, I didn't govern my family properly.

That's how this ugly scene happened. Please mete out punishment.

Royal Aunt.

Liuli, tell me the truth. What's going on?

I...I...

It was me. I forced her to do that.

Chunfeng.

Your Highness. Father, Mother, it was all my fault.

Don't do anything foolish.

Since I was young, I have always been jealous of and hated Eldest Brother.

When he came back, he took everything away which belonged to me, including the position of the heir. I was jealous

and forced my newly wedded wife to do the wrong thing.

Your Highness, just punish only me.

Chunfeng, what nonsense are you spouting?
