This woman was none other than Xie Qiyun's nanny, Mrs. Lu, and she was also the personal maid Liu Guifei had grown up with since childhood.
Although she was just a slave by title, Concubine Liu and Xie Qiyun never really treated her as a servant.
Mrs. Lu often took advantage of the influence of Concubine Liu and Xie Qiyun to exert power, and she could enter and leave the palace freely on weekdays. Therefore, it was not impossible for her to deliberately frame Xie Jinyan.
But...if the Lu family was responsible, why were Xie Qiyun and Qiu Shiniang the ones who made a fool of themselves?
Not only Yu Qingwu had doubts in his mind, but everyone in the palace was also confused.
Especially Concubine Liu, when she heard that Lu had taken the blame, she first breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked her sternly, "Hongying, was it really you who administered the tiger-wolf medicine? Why did you do this?"
At this time, Xie Qiyun also spoke and asked Lu in confusion, "Nanny, why do you want to harm me?"
"First Prince, I have no intention of harming you."
Mrs. Lu wiped her tears and said with a bitter face, "Originally I wanted to make His Highness the Crown Prince look embarrassed, but for some reason, the drugged wine ended up in the stomachs of you and the Qiu family girl."
Lu's face was full of remorse, and she paused. She glanced at the sullen Emperor Wei Jing who was sitting in the seat, and then stammered and added, "Later, when the old slave saw that something had happened, he had an idea and... killed the tiger and wolf.
The medicine was stuffed into His Highness the Prince's carriage."
After hearing this, Concubine Liu's tense nerves suddenly relaxed a lot.
She took a deep look at Lu, with tears in her eyes, and said, "Hongying, you...how could you do such a thing!"
"Look, what a big misunderstanding this has caused?"
"Empress, you see, this matter is just a misunderstanding. I and Qiyun were also deceived and wronged His Highness the Crown Prince." Concubine Liu said as she pretended to be relaxed and apologized to Empress Zhou, intending to use
Misunderstanding confuses the matter.
However……
The next moment, Xie Jinyan snorted coldly. Before Queen Zhou could speak, she interrupted Liu Guifei in a deep voice and said with a smile, "My dear concubine, since this matter is a misunderstanding, I won't care about it and drag this cheap maid away."
Just go down and beat him to death."
"It's just that this matter has cleared up the misunderstanding, but how should we deal with the affair between the eldest emperor brother and the girl from the Qiu family?"
Xie Jinyan asked a few questions in succession, which made Concubine Liu who had just calmed down suddenly become stunned again, and Xie Qiyun's back felt even colder.
In comparison, You Wanwan seemed much calmer.
She stepped forward, glanced at Xie Jinyan with some displeasure, and said, "Your Highness, please don't accuse anyone unjustly. It is true that this girl from the Qiu family caused a scandal with the eldest prince today, but you can't just rely on two
With just one word from this maidservant, your royal brother has been condemned."
"Besides, how can you prove that what these two maids said is true? Perhaps, as the mother-in-law said, they are agents from another country, deliberately trying to sow discord between you and the eldest prince."
"Your Highness, please don't be confused."
You Wanwan's eyes darkened, and there was a hint of threat in her tone.
Are you trying to persuade him to give up when things get better?
Only You Wanwan, the legitimate daughter of a general-jun, dared to threaten the current crown prince like this.
Unfortunately, Xie Jinyan was never one to be threatened, and neither was Queen Zhou.
"Qiu Xue, Qiu Shuang, you keep saying that the eldest prince ordered you to meet the prince, do you have any evidence?"
As soon as You Wanwan finished speaking, Queen Zhou, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke.
She frowned, but her face was still gentle and kind. She gave Concubine Liu a comforting look, and called Concubine Liu very intimately, "Sister, don't be anxious, there must be a misunderstanding about this matter. You are from a noble family, and Qiyun is the eldest son."
, I have been taught by Uncle Liu Guo personally since I was a child, so I don’t believe that you and Qiyun would really do such disobedient things.”
These words sounded like comfort, even favoring Concubine Liu and her son, but invisibly, they emphasized it again, reminding Emperor Wei Jing that Concubine Liu was also involved in the affair and surveillance, and also alluded to Uncle Liu Guo
He taught Xie Qiyun wrongly.
Sure enough, Emperor Wei Jing's expression suddenly improved, but his expression suddenly darkened again, and he looked questioningly at Concubine Liu and her son.
You Wanwan wanted to say something else, but Emperor Wei Jing didn't even give her face.
He only looked at the two sisters Qiu Shuang and Qiu Xue who were still kneeling on the ground and asked, "Qiu Shuang, Qiu Xue, you are so sure that you said that Concubine Liu and the eldest prince were instigating you, and that the eldest prince had an affair with Qiu Kui earlier. All of this
Is there any evidence?"
"Of course there are." Qiu Xue immediately responded, then looked up at Concubine Liu, her eyes became more and more angry, her eyes immediately turned red, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Your Majesty, the two slave sisters were originally unwilling to join in the conspiracy. After all, surveillance
Crown Prince, confusing the royal bloodline is a serious crime of beheading."
"But... Concubine Liu Guifei threatened us sisters, saying that if we don't obey, we will kill the slave and her whole family."
"This slave really has no choice, so I have no choice but to agree."
"Yes, yes, the slaves' families are still being held hostage by Concubine Liu."
At this time, my sister Qiu Shuang also spoke.
She wiped her tears, knelt forward, glared at Xie Qiyun fiercely, and said angrily, "The small courtyard where the slaves and servants are detained is in the name of the eldest prince. If your majesty doesn't believe it, you can send someone to investigate.
Check it out."
"As for the illicit affair between the eldest prince and the girl from the Qiu family, His Majesty will find out by sending people there to inquire. The eldest prince and the girl from the Qiu family always have an affair next door to the courtyard, and sometimes the servant's family will be asked to go there.
Serve."
"In addition, the eldest prince also gave many properties to the Qiu family girls, which were originally brought by the prince's concubine as dowry..."
What I said before is nothing...
This last sentence shocked everyone in the hall.
Especially You Wanwan, her body shook violently and she subconsciously glanced at Xie Qiyun. Xie Qiyun's face turned pale and he was too guilty to look at her.
Qiu Shiyiniang on the side even lowered her head and her body began to tremble.
Seeing the two people's expressions like this, what else doesn't You Wanwan understand?
She was so angry that she was shaking all over, and her eyes looking at Qiu Shiniang became more and more fierce.
"Bitch! You bitch!"
She screamed and cursed, and the next moment, she rushed towards Qiu Shiniang and punched and kicked Qiu Shiniang.
When the fist came down, she was not inferior to the soldiers on the battlefield. With two punches, Qiu Shiniang's face was covered with blood. When the third punch came down, the bridge of Qiu Shiniang's nose was directly bent.
"Ah! Brother Qiyun, save me!"
Qiu Shiyiniang was completely frightened at this moment. She subconsciously threw herself into Xie Qiyun's arms without even thinking about it.
Xie Qiyun didn't like You Wanwan in the first place. When he saw the woman he liked being beaten severely by her, he couldn't bear it anymore. He intercepted You Wanwan's fist and held Qiu Shiyiniang tightly in his arms.
"Qiyun, what are you doing?" Liu Guifei shouted angrily, and with a wink, she told Xie Qiyun to let Qiu Shiyiniang go.
However, Xie Qiyun protected Qiu Shiyiniang even tighter, raised his eyes and glared at You Wanwan, his eyes almost split open, "You Wanwan, you are so impudent!" This chapter has been completed!
