Princess Vanessa had made arrangements in advance.
If the plan failed, she would send a message to the maids outside to save her.
She believed she could use public opinion to squeeze Xu Gu and force him to compromise.
In her calculations,
even if Xu Gu held a superior identity and possessed the Heart of the Ocean, if he attempted to assault a royal princess and it became public knowledge, he would inevitably be ruined.
He would be forcefully eradicated by those ancestors in seclusion.
After all, Xu Gu had already killed the fourth prince, Shege, and the high-ranking officials were already harboring resentment and fear; it's just that it had been Shege who took the initiative to kill Xu Gu, and Xu Gu, in self-defense, was unscathed.
But it would be completely different if he caused a scandal with the third princess.
In just a few days, to have killed the fourth prince and assaulted the third princess, wasn't that seeking death?
No matter your reasons, they are unforgivable!
