Xie Jinyan sneered in his heart and kept a calm expression on his face. After finishing his words, he pulled Yu Qingwu to sit on a chair aside at the instructions of Emperor Wei Jing and Queen Zhou, just in front of Xie Qiyun and Qiu Shiyiniang.
Today, not only Qiu Shiyiniang's face was full of joy, Xie Qiyun's eyes also showed a hint of joy, and he secretly glanced at Emperor Wei Jing from time to time.
Emperor Wei Jing's face was grave, and his eyes kept looking at Yu Qingwu.
Finally, he called her in a deep voice, "Fifth daughter-in-law, I heard that... before you studied art at the Xiao family, you studied art at a village named Yang in Sichuan. Is this true?"
He glanced coldly at Qiu Shiyiniang, who had a smile on her face, and then raised his eyes to meet Emperor Wei Jing's seemingly calm but actually sharp gaze. Yu Qingwu couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
Judging from this situation, Qiu Shiyiniang should have informed Empress Zhou and Emperor Wei Jing about her killing of the Yang family man in Shu. The Wang family brought her daughter into the palace, probably to testify for this.
It seemed that the Shen family and the Qiu family had panicked and ignored Xie Jinyan's warning and couldn't wait to kill her.
If that's the case, then she has no choice but to fight to the death.
After squeezing the palms of his hands, Yu Qingwu stood up. His face no longer had the panic that Qiu Shiyiniang wanted. Instead, he looked magnanimous. He bowed to Emperor Wei Jing very calmly and said lightly, "Go back to the emperor, my dear father."
It is true that I worked as a floral apprentice at Yangjiazhuangzi for a period of time, but my stay was not long, less than two or three months before I joined another apprenticeship."
After hearing her answer, Emperor Wei Jing's eyes were still sharp. He glanced at her and asked, "It's so good, why did you join another disciple?"
"Because..." Yu Qingwu lowered his head, biting his lips tightly, a hint of guilt flashed between his delicate eyebrows, and he hesitated, "Because I, my minister..."
Yu Qingwu clenched his palms and did not continue talking.
Such a reaction made Emperor Wei Jing feel startled and his eyes were a little disappointed.
Could it be that, as the Qiu family and Shen family said, this Yu family had killed his master? And then dumped his body in the wilderness?
A Crown Princess can be from a humble background, but she must not have the stain of taking human life lightly...
Thinking of this, Emperor Wei Jing's face became more and more gloomy, and his eyes were fixed on Yu Qingwu, as if gesturing for her to continue speaking.
Facing Emperor Wei Jing's questioning eyes, Qing Wu still lowered his eyes, pretending to be afraid.
This kind of reaction made Qiu Shiyiniang very satisfied.
She glanced at Emperor Wei Jing secretly, and before Wei Jingdi could speak, she asked impatiently, "Why? Why didn't Yu Liangdi continue talking?"
Yu Qingwu raised his eyes and glanced at Qiu Shiniang, but still said nothing.
Qiu Shiniang was even more proud and sneered, "Because you killed someone! You killed that man from the Yang family who treated you like his own daughter."
Ha, like a biological daughter? The Qiu family and the Shen family are quite good at confusing right and wrong.
Yu Qingwu looked at Qiu Shiyiniang, seeing her getting more and more aggressive and determined to win. He couldn't help but sneered and asked, "Aunt Qiu said that I killed that Yang Cheng, do you have any evidence?"
"Of course there is, the witness will arrive soon." Qiu Shiyi's face was full of arrogance, thinking that she would soon send this businesswoman to the guillotine, she stopped pretending, and added another sentence in a very provocative tone
, said, "Yu Liangdi, God is watching what people do, and the things they have done, even if their bodies are destroyed and traces are destroyed, will one day be revealed to the world."
"Yes, God is watching what people do, and the bad things they have done, even if their corpses are destroyed and traces are wiped out, will one day be exposed to the world."
"However, Gu would like to ask Aunt Qiu. You keep saying that Gu's wife has killed people. Dare I ask, what is the purpose of killing people?"
Xie Jinyan curled his lips, leaning on the table with his chin on his head, his cold phoenix eyes taunting, and asked a sharp question on Yu Qingwu's behalf.
Hearing this, Qiu Shiyiniang's eyes flashed with panic.
The reason why Yu Qingwu killed Yang Cheng was told by her father, saying that even if her father had ten heads, he would not be able to chop off the real reason.
Qiu Shiniang pursed her lips, looked at Xie Jinyan calmly, and replied according to what her father taught her, "For whatever reason, it's because Yu Liangdi couldn't endure hardships, and the man from the Yang family held a grudge after giving her a few words...
…”
"Uh, that's strange. The Xiao family's master also often teaches A Wu a lesson. Sometimes A Wu's manners are wrong and he has to be whipped. Why don't you see A Wu kill the Xiao family's master?" Qiu Shiyiniang just finished her words,
Xie Jinyan interrupted her sarcastically.
He raised his eyebrows and looked at her again, and said word by word, "May I ask Aunt Qiu, what kind of lesson would make this weak and gentle Liangdi kill someone?"
Xie Jinyan smiled, questioning every word.
Isn't that right? The master of the Xiao family was very serious in his actions, and he didn't see Yu Qingwu resenting him. So what did Yang Cheng do to make an eleven-year-old girl kill him by any means necessary?
For a moment, Qiu Shiyi Niang was stunned.
She bit her lip and stammered, "I... I also heard from Mrs. Wang. I don't know exactly how to teach him a lesson..."
"You come to accuse my Awu without knowing anything, Aunt Qiu, what are you thinking about?" Qiu Shiyi's mother was stumbling, Xie Jinyan interrupted her again, and smiled at Emperor Wei Jing, "
Father, you won’t easily believe such baseless accusations, will you?”
Emperor Wei Jing was actually very satisfied with Yu Qingwu's wife. Seeing Qiu Shiniang's expression at this moment, he immediately turned his questioning eyes to her.
Qiu Shiniang had a ghost in her heart, but when Emperor Wei Jing looked at her like this, she couldn't help but feel guilty.
Seeing this, Xie Qiyun hurriedly interrupted, glared at Xie Jinyan arrogantly, and snorted coldly, "Didn't the Fifth Emperor Brother and the Eleventh Mother tell you just now? The witness is already on the way, what are you in a hurry for?"
"Your Majesty, the Wang family and her daughter are here."
While several people were talking, Yu Qi walked in from outside the hall.
That soft and handsome face was still dignified and steady, but whether it was an illusion or not, Yu Qingwu always felt that Yu Qi seemed to be looking at her for a moment, with a faint worry in his eyes.
But soon, she no longer had the time to think about it.
In the huge Zichen Hall, Emperor Wei Jing's cold and solemn voice could be heard, instructing Yu Qidao, "Go and send them in."
"Yes." Yu Qi nodded, glanced at Yu Qingwu again, turned and left.
After a while, Wang and Xu Chuner followed Yu Qi into the Zichen Hall.
As soon as she entered the door, she pulled her daughter to kneel on the ground, her rouged face full of flattery, and shouted to Emperor Wei Jing and Queen Zhou, "Ms. Wang, a commoner woman, kowtow to your majesty and pay homage to the empress. Long live your majesty."
Long live the empress, a thousand years old, a thousand years old."
