Just then, a group of people walked over.
Long Yang was at the forefront, followed by the Crown Prince and several court officials.
When the little palace maid spotted the Crown Prince, her eyes flashed, and she suddenly broke free of Cai Yu's grip to turn back.
Lu Liangwei had also seen Long Yang and Long Chi behind him.
In an instant, she came to a realization.
So this was what was going on.
The little palace maid had known in advance that the Emperor, the Crown Prince, several court officials, and even the Pure Consort would pass by here at this time. The girl deliberately led her down this path and pretended to push her into the water by accident.
After that, Lu Liangwei would be rescued by the palace guards in a soaking-wet state. Long Yang and Long Chi's group would happen to pass by and witness this. In the following day, gossip about Second Miss Lu of the Grand Duke Family being defiled would be spread everywhere.
