Chapter 178, The Importance of Power

"When I woke up, brother Xu Si was already beside me. He said he saved me." After Xu Xingzhi finished speaking, Xie Ruizhi, who had been silent for a long time, spoke.

She glanced at Xu Xingzhi with complicated eyes, and then her eyes fell on Xu Zian and Xu Fengxia.

Although Xie Ruizhi is a bit naive, he is not stupid.

Xu Xingzhi can tell all the details, but Xu Zian can only evade it. It is clear at a glance which one is true and which one is false.

Therefore, it was really brother Xu Si who deceived her.

The person who rescued her was not Brother Xu Si, but Xu Xingzhi, the concubine whom she and Brother Xu had despised in the past?

However, when she woke up that day, the first person she saw was brother Xu Si!

After waking up, she was eager to report to the police to catch the bandits.

But Brother Xu Si said that for the sake of her reputation, it was better not to report her to the official, and said that he would handle the matter.

At that time, she was still in shock, so she responded.

She originally wanted to arrest those bandits and ask why they kidnapped her, but Brother Xu Si killed them all in the name of fear of ruining her reputation.

At that time, Xie Ruizhi didn't think much about it and was even very grateful to Xu Si.

But now that I think about it, it all seems too coincidental.

The most important thing is that she also met Qiu Shiyiniang in the inn that day.

She didn't think much about it at that time, she just listened to Xu Si's words and avoided Qiu Shiyiniang, for fear that Qiu Shiyiniang would say something unpleasant if she saw her.

But now that I think about it, Qiu Shiyi’s mother’s family is near that inn, how could she stay in the inn for no reason? Moreover, how could Xu Si happen to know that Qiu Shiyi’s mother was also in that inn, and deliberately took her to avoid it?

?

Xie Ruizhi felt mixed emotions in his heart.

For a moment, a terrible and absurd thought came to my mind.

Guilt, anger, resentment, grief and indignation were all flowing at the same time.

She stared at Xu Zian who was cowering on the ground in panic and seemed to be trying to quibble. Her eyes suddenly turned red and she said coldly, "Brother Xu Si, what is going on? You didn't save me? Why did you do that that day?

Will it appear in the inn? Also, why is your eldest brother's jade pendant in your hand?"

Her lips trembled slightly, and her expression was sharper than ever before.

Xie Ruizhi was born with a heroic spirit, and her facial features were a bit cold, but she was always innocent and lively. Especially towards Xu Zian and the Xu family, she was infinitely tolerant and humble. So humble that Xu Zian forgot

Although she was originally a high-ranking princess, even though her mother was a South Vietnamese barbarian, she was still the Holy One's favorite and the only legitimate princess. It would have been easy for her to take the life of a down-and-out prince of the prince's family.

The reason why she indulged him in every possible way was partly because of her love for him, and partly because of the grace of saving her life.

But now, the so-called life-saving grace is false.

Admiration, since he suddenly ran away and cried out just now, it seems that the way she looks at him is not the same as before.

Xu Zian didn't understand why Xie Ruizhi became so fast, but at this moment, Xie Ruizhi's eyes frightened him.

He raised his eyes tremblingly, looking at each other with fear.

"Sixth Princess, you... don't listen to his nonsense. It was clearly me... I saved you. Have you forgotten? When you wake up, the first person you see will talk about me."

"Think about it, he is the son of a concubine, a lowly peasant woman, what kind of good thing can he be? Don't trust what he says!"

Xu Zian looked panicked and seemed to have no other evidence to refute, so he could only repeat those pale and weak words over and over again.

If in the past, if he had argued a few words, Xie Ruizhi would have easily believed him.

But at this moment, her eyes showed no fluctuation.

The face that used to be gentle and flattering to him was expressionless. He repeated what he had just said coldly and said sternly, "Xu Zian, let me ask you again, why were you at the inn that day? Why did you take away your elder brother?

Jade pendant? Why is it such a coincidence?"

This time, there was no trace of admiration in her eyes, but more murderous intent. Suddenly, she grabbed Xu Zian's neck and asked again sternly, "Xu Zian, I want to ask you, why did you do that that day?"

You just showed up in the inn? The so-called bandits were basically arranged by you and that bitch Okra!"

What kind of performance is this?

Xie Ruizhi's sudden question frightened Xu Zian, and also shocked the rest of the people in the hall, which made people even more angry.

Looking at Xie Ruizhi's expression, listening to what she said, and looking at Xu Zian's frightened face, the answer was ready to come out.

Everyone in the hall, you look at me, I look at you, their eyes are full of anger.

The prince sitting in the seat had a sullen face, staring at him with a pair of phoenix eyes, and coldly snorted, "He is clearly the murderer, but he pretends to be his savior."

"Xu Zian, you are so brave."

There was a loud bang! Xie Jinyan grabbed the inkstone on the case and threw it at Xu Zian.

His face was already covered in blisters just after being burned, but at this moment the inkstone was smashed down, and Xu Zian's forehead was bleeding.

He covered his head and fell to the ground with a cry.

Xu Fengxia was completely dumbfounded when she saw things develop like this.

After being stunned for a moment, she immediately wanted to fool him, "Ah! It's killing people! It's terrible! It's killing people!"

Xu Fengxia wailed loudly, as if she wanted to attract someone.

But it's a pity that this is the East Palace.

The palace people outside heard her shouting but turned a deaf ear.

On the other hand, Yu Qi, who was outside, became a little impatient after hearing this, so he entered the door, cupped his hands to Xie Jinyan and said, "Your Highness, I will leave the rest of the matter to you."

Seeing that the matter was over, Xie Jinyan said nothing more and nodded slightly towards Yu Qi.

After receiving the agreement, Yu Qi immediately glanced at the two chamberlains who came with him.

When the two came up, they gagged Xu Fengxia's mouth and dragged her out like a dog to death.

Soon, Xu Fengxia and Xu Zian were dragged out.

After a while, Xie Qiyun and Qiu Kui, who were in the imperial garden, were also called away.

Kidnapping the princess, framing the crown princess, and defiling the harem, these crimes together were enough to make her die ten times.

As for Xu Zian, even if he doesn't die, he is afraid that he will have to spend the rest of his life in prison. This is still light. If it were more serious, I am afraid that the entire Xu family will be implicated by him.

As for the Qiu family, I am afraid that Qiu Kui will also be involved, so Xie Qiyun cannot protect her this time.

For a moment, Yu Qingwu had mixed feelings.

I also feel even more the importance of power status.

If she was the one who was kidnapped, I am afraid that the royal family would still deal with Qiu Kui and the Xu family for the sake of family relations, but it would be different when it comes to the princess Xie Ruizhi.

Thinking of this, Yu Qingwu couldn't help but feel a little ridiculed.

"What are you thinking about, senior sister?" It was half an hour later when we returned to the banquet.

As soon as Yu Qingwu sat down, Xie Jinyan sat next to her, looked at the corners of her mouth that slightly raised, and slowly put his big hands on her shoulders, as if he had read through her thoughts, and asked, "Sister, do you think that what happened today?

If Xu Zian and Qiu Kui had not been involved in kidnapping Ruizhi, would they not have been dealt with more severely?"
