Unfortunately, rumors about Isabella had been circulating for two years…it was hard to change their impression of the kid, even now.
But at least, the commoners started to realize that maybe...maybe Isabella was innocent.
Mariella captured these people' looks and immediately took the chance to improve her image.
"This queen...this queen doesn't care if all of you think that this queen is a tyrant." Mariella's voice was loud and clear.
The baby had a solemn and arrogant look on her face, befitting of a queen.
But her eyes reddened, and her body couldn't help but tremble.
One could hear a sense of helplessness and grievance in her voice.
"I...I don't care. This queen just doesn't want you, idiots, to accuse me for things I never do!"
Mariella's words were sharp and unkind, but the commoners saw the tough look of a five-year-old child….and couldn't blame her.
They saw her being unyielding and stubborn, even so disgustingly arrogant–
Yet behind all of those things, she's only a five-year-old toddler.
Her real self was even weaker than Lizeth. Her heart wasn't made of iron.
When these people accused her, threw rocks at her, and even wished her to die…
She stubbornly looked at them and revealed the injustice she suffered, but didn't even punish them.
It should be a grave sin to insult the monarch, even throwing rocks at the monarch, but the baby…
She didn't kill them on the spot. She only cursed them, shouted at them, and...and threw a tantrum.
In that instant, the commoners' eyes reddened, especially the women.
They looked at the queen who was even younger than their children, yet was forced to act tough…
She's just like a hedgehog full of thorns but has the softest and weakest belly.
The commoners lowered their heads and didn't speak. Even the rebels suddenly questioned their plans and missions.
Is it alright to rebel against such a child? Is it alright to hate her and even want to...kill her?
The rebel leader was among the commoners, and he also felt deeply ashamed of his blindness.
Why didn't he investigate more carefully? Why did he believe that Isabella was the mastermind of their suffering?
Why couldn't they think that she was ignorant and other people used her ignorance to frame her?
No one could harden their hearts for a child who was wronged by almost the whole kingdom, seen as the devil's daughter, and was hated by everybody.
In fact, the people inside and outside the execution field, including the reporters, suddenly felt stuffy.
Just what did they do? They bullied a child...and even almost made her carry a massive sin that she didn't even do!
While the commoners were silent, Mariella looked at Duke Fez and nodded solemnly.
"Start the execution and go on with the rest of the death row inmates."
"Alright." Duke Fez immediately signalled the executioner to put the first inmate on the guillotine as he stood next to Mariella.
The duke was ready to cover the kid's eyes to prevent her from seeing such a bloody scene.
Fortunately, the inmates all had been gagged, and no matter how loud they shouted, only faint whimpers and murmurs could be heard.
And amidst just a large field, it was impossible for those at the high platform to hear the inmates' muffled shouts and screams.
However, whether it was a coincidence or not, Princess Lizeth was still standing not too far from the execution stage.
When the executioner put the inmate on the guillotine, the princess didn't even have a chance to run out of the execution ground….
And the guillotine's sharp knife already fell right onto the inmate's neck.
In that instant, blood spurted and splashed the wooden guillotine, and the inmate's head quietly rolled down to the reddish-black stage.
The smell of blood immediately filled everyone's nose, and the gruesome death of the official was apparent to the eye.
Witnessing such a bloody scene right in front of her eyes, the weak-hearted Lizeth couldn't even scream and directly fainted on the spot.
"Princess!" The people from the slums screamed in shock, and the field became lively once more.
The soldiers came to carry Lizeth away while Lizeth's mother watched all of this from the high platform.
When she saw her daughter witness such a cruel execution and then fainted, the concubine screamed, and she also lost consciousness.
!
"Someone, help! Concubine Anne fainted!"
The mother and daughter fainted one after another. It was quite a scene, but not a good one. It was an embarrassing sight.
For the royal family members to faint one after another at the execution ground…
Who told them to come? Only the one who applied for the live execution had to attend in person. The other royal members didn't need to do that.
But many royal family members wanted to create a good impression on the commoners, and they usually came.
Not to mention that this time, the queen personally attended the execution!
Unfortunately, the mother-daughter fainted and caused a ruckus.
Even the commoners didn't faint and only looked uncomfortable…
So embarrassing.
The weak-hearted commoners knew to close their eyes and hid among the crowds as not to see the execution.
How could this mother-daughter pair couldn't do that?
The commoners' impression of Lizeth and Anne hit another low score.
When they recalled Lizeth's simple appearance and dress, they suddenly didn't think that it was because she was frugal or humble.
Maybe it was because she didn't have the royal family aura?
Even if she wanted to be humble and simple, on such an occasion where many royal family members were here, how could she wear such a simple dress?
She's a princess, right? Then act like one!
