Du Yuwei looked at Du Yunsheng with resentment and said, "How could you be so vicious and kill my uncle? If it weren't for you, my uncle wouldn't have died!"

Du Yunsheng's expression changed slightly when she heard that. She slowly turned her head and looked at Du Yuwei with cold eyes, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.

"Yuwei, do you really think that I was responsible for your uncle's death?" Du Yunsheng's voice was calm and firm, like the calm surface of a lake.

Du Yuwei's eyes widened, glaring at Du Yunsheng, and she said sharply, "Isn't it? If it weren't for you framing him, how could my uncle be exiled to the frontier and die there?"

Du Yunsheng sighed softly, her eyes revealing endless fatigue. She walked to the window, looked out at the Prince Jing's Mansion, and said calmly: "I know you always thought that I killed your uncle, but that's not the case."

Du Yuwei sneered and said sarcastically: "The truth? The truth is that you manipulated everything behind the scenes, causing my uncle to be ruined and die tragically on the border!"

Du Yunsheng turned around and looked at Du Yuwei firmly: "Yuwei, you are wrong. Your uncle's death was not caused by me. In fact, he was exiled to the frontier because he broke the law. I am just acting according to the law."

Du Yuwei was so angry that she was shaking all over. She glared at Du Yunsheng, with hatred flashing in her eyes: "Don't try to argue here! Even if my uncle was wrong, you shouldn't have been so cruel to him!"

Du Yunsheng shook her head slightly, her tone becoming serious: "Yuwei, don't you understand? In the court, there is only right and wrong, not closeness or distance. As the Princess of Jing, I must sacrifice my relatives for the greater good and uphold the law."

Du Yuwei gritted her teeth, tears welling up in her eyes. She clenched her fists tightly and glared at Du Yunsheng: "You only attacked my uncle to protect your status and power! You are not worthy of being my sister!"

Du Yunsheng's eyes suddenly became sharp. She stared at Du Yuwei and said coldly, "Yuwei, you are wrong. I did this for the entire Western Wei Dynasty and for the people of the world. As for you, you are blinded by personal emotions and cannot see the truth."

Du Yuwei's eyes widened, tears welling up in her eyes. She pointed at Du Yunsheng and said tremblingly, "You...you cruel woman! My uncle is so good to you, but you treat him like this!"

The coldness in Du Yunsheng's eyes gradually disappeared, replaced by endless sadness. She sighed softly, and her tone became softer: "Yuwei, I know it's hard for you to accept this fact. But please believe me, I have never forgotten my uncle's kindness to me. However, as the Princess of Jing, I must put the Western Wei first and the people of the world first."

Du Yuwei's eyes were blurred with tears, and she looked at Du Yunsheng, with a conflicted heart. She wanted to believe her sister, but she was unwilling to let her uncle die like this.

Du Yunsheng saw Du Yuwei's contradiction. She sighed softly, walked to Du Yuwei, and patted her shoulder gently: "Yuwei, I know you are in pain now. But please believe that I will do my best to find out the truth and seek justice for my uncle."

Du Yuwei raised her head, with hope in her eyes: "Sister, will you really seek justice for my uncle?"

Du Yunsheng nodded gently, his eyes firm: "I will, for your uncle and for you."

Du Yuwei burst into tears again. She hugged Du Yunsheng tightly and cried, "Sister, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you before."

Du Yunsheng gently stroked Du Yuwei's hair, feeling deeply moved.

The warm yellow candlelight sprinkled on the two of them, reflecting a faint warmth. Du Yunsheng sighed softly, with a complex emotion in his eyes.

"Yuwei, you don't have to blame yourself." Du Yunsheng said slowly, with a hint of warmth in his voice, "In this complicated palace, misunderstandings are inevitable."

Du Yuwei raised her head, tears still in her eyes, but she tried to smile: "Sister, I will believe in you and support you more."

At this moment, the door was gently pushed open and a figure walked in. It was Prince Jing Jiang Shaohan. He saw Du Yuwei with tears in her eyes and immediately asked nervously: "Yuwei, what's wrong? What happened?"

Du Yuwei quickly wiped away her tears and said with a forced smile: "Prince Jing, it's okay, I'm just a little moved."

Jiang Shaohan nodded slightly, his eyes showing concern. He turned to Du Yunsheng and said sincerely, "Princess, I heard that you are willing to take the lead for Uncle Yuwei's matter. Although I can't intervene directly, if necessary, I will definitely help you with all my strength."

Du Yunsheng smiled slightly, with a hint of gratitude in his eyes: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will remember your kindness."

Du Yunsheng was admiring the flowers in the garden when a figure suddenly appeared in front of her. It was Du Yuwei's half-sister, Du Ruoxin. A hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes, and a sneer hung on the corner of her mouth.

"Sister, you are really good at this." Du Ruoxin said sarcastically, "First you won over Yu Wei, and now you are planning to use this opportunity to improve your status?"

Du Yunsheng looked at her calmly, and said in a calm tone: "Ruoxin, I know what you are thinking, but everything I do is for justice and fairness."

Du Ruoxin's eyes widened, as if she couldn't believe her ears: "Justice? Fairness? You are just pursuing your own selfish interests."

"Really?" Du Yunsheng smiled lightly, his eyes firm, "Then you wait and see whether I can seek justice for my uncle."

Du Ruoxin snorted and turned away.

At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded outside the window. Then, a figure rushed in. It was Jiang Shaohan.

"Not good!" Jiang Shaohan said anxiously, "Someone is secretly obstructing us. They want to ruin your uncle's case."

Du Yunsheng stood up immediately, a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Who is it? They dare!"

Jiang Shaohan clenched his fists, his eyes firm: "No matter who they are, we will not let them succeed."

In the study room of Prince Jing's mansion, Du Yunsheng and Jiang Shaohan sat opposite each other. Du Yunsheng's eyes flashed with determination: "Shaohan, I have found out the truth. The mastermind behind this is actually Prince Jing's confidant."

Jiang Shaohan's face changed, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes: "How is this possible? He is a close confidant of Prince Jing, why would he do this?"

Du Yunsheng shook his head gently, his tone calm: "The reason is not important, what is important is that we must stop him and seek justice for our uncle."

Jiang Shaohan took a deep breath, his eyes firm: "I will fully support you, no matter what the cost."

In the hall, Du Yuwei stepped forward and faced Prince Jing's confidant. She said firmly, "Your so-called evidence is all false. You are the real mastermind behind this!"

Prince Jing's confidant sneered, with a cunning light flashing in his eyes: "Evidence? Do you have evidence?"

Du Yuwei took a deep breath and took out a letter from her sleeve: "This is the correspondence between you and your accomplice. It clearly states your conspiracy."

Prince Jing's confidant's face changed drastically. He didn't expect that his conspiracy would be exposed. He stared at Du Yuwei angrily, with a fierce light in his eyes: "How dare you expose me!"
