Chapter 175: White to red petals.

It should have been a great tea party, one that would be talked about for years to come as a tea party worthy of gods. As live television was new to Eldoria, reporters had been invited, The news should have been reporting on the glamour of the party and the extraordinary quality of the guests.

The host should have come away from the party, celebrated for her grace and beauty. The day should have ended with a young noble lord from one of the greatest and wealthiest families asking for her hand in marriage.

As a matter of fact, the day should have ended with no less than five women from the Ye family being engaged.

The tea party should not have ended with white petals of blossom trees being dyed red with the blood of what should have been the next crown prince. It should not have ended with guests screaming and escaping the castle as if they were running from a mountain of beasts.

It should not have ended with all the members of the Ye family being arrested by white and red knights. And also not with the host screaming ’I am innocent’ to all the cameras in sight.

What should have been the best tea party ever, turned into the worst tea party ever. If Lady Blythe Ye had known that things would end like this, perhaps she should have willingly chosen an ordinary scandal of a couple caught canoodling under a blossom tree to a scandal of murdering the crown princess and a royal heir.
