Qin Rushuang did what she said, and the next day she changed into plain clothes, and according to the list given to her by Shen Xiaoyang, she took her servants and went door to door to ask these girls and their families to come forward to testify.
Whether pleading, using, or threatening, Qin Rushuang used all the means in her life to visit the remaining thirty girls in one day, and finally persuaded them all to come forward to testify.
When Qin Rushuang returned to the palace, it was already dark.
Qingzhi's face was filled with distress: "Princess, please take a rest. You have been gone all day."
Qingzhi brought the basin and took off Qin Rushuang's shoes and socks, only to see blisters on her feet.
Although there were carriages taking them for the longer distances, it took a lot of effort to go to each household and convince them.
Seeing the distressed look on the little girl's face, Qin Rushuang smiled and said, "It's my fault that I neglected to practice after getting pregnant. If this little thing had been done before..."
"The princess said that was before, but now you are still pregnant."
Qin Rushuang showed a relaxed smile.
Finally, today's hard work was not in vain.
Those girls are willing to come forward to testify, and now they only need to wait for Xie Xun to wake up before the trial can begin.
"Princess, please rest early. I'll leave you first. If anything happens, I must wake you up. You have to worry about the case and take care of the prince these days. It's really hard."
Qin Rushuang nodded, "I understand."
After Qingzhi left, Qin Rushuang looked at Xie Xun lying beside her, feeling a little lost.
A victorious general who is invincible in battle is rarely so vulnerable.
"You said, you are lying like this and can't move. If I have bad thoughts now, will I be able to avenge the revenge of my previous life..."
"Forget it, it's boring..."
"But in the future, the child will call you daddy, why..."
…
She muttered to herself and Xie Xun for a while before lying down to rest. Qin Rushuang likes to leave a lamp on the bedside when she sleeps, so that she won't be in the dark when something happens at night.
But today when she was swinging the lampshade, she saw Xie Xun's eyelids twitching slightly.
Qin Rushuang quickly turned off the lamp.
Maybe Xie Xun doesn’t like bright light next to him when he sleeps...
Because she had a tiring day yesterday, Qin Rushuang got up a little late the next day.
She was in a good mood and had everything ready, just waiting for Xie Xun to wake up.
After washing, Qin Rushuang had just walked out of the yard when she heard the noise.
The sound was not far away, as if it was on the street outside the palace.
But there are always very few people on the street of Wangfu, so why is it so noisy...
"Qingzhi, go see what's going on."
A moment later, Qingzhi came back, with an angry look on his face: "How could these people do this?!"
"What happened?" Qin Rushuang asked quickly.
"It's too much! These people are really too much! Didn't the princess go door-to-door to visit the girls who fell into the water yesterday? Yesterday they all agreed to come out to testify, but today they all came to the gate of the palace to cause trouble. They said you... said You..." Qingzhi stopped talking.
Qin Rushuang said solemnly: "If you have anything to say, just say it."
"They all say that you are not well-intentioned! They say it's because...the prince and you want to solve the case and make meritorious deeds, so they persuade the girls to testify in court and want to ruin their reputations. They say that you and the prince are sucking the blood of the people for the sake of fame, fortune and political achievements. Climb up... That’s too ugly to say!!”
"Let's go out and take a look."
On the short road from the main courtyard to the entrance of the palace, Qin Rushuang's mind was spinning rapidly.
There must be someone obstructing this matter. They just don't know what benefits the person behind this promised, so that so many people are willing to go against Prince Huai's Mansion.
Seeing Qin Rushuang coming, people outside shouted: "It's the princess, the princess is here!"
One of the women with a mean face saw Qin Rushuang coming and threw a bunch of things at her feet with a bang.
"Princess, the common people cannot bear the gift you gave me! My daughter cannot bear the humiliation for the second time. Take these things away, take them away! Take them away!"
When one person speaks out, others also speak out.
"Our daughter won't go either, she won't go! They are both good girls. Even if I send her to a nunnery to repair herself, I won't let others laugh at her!"
"That's right! As parents, of course we must protect our daughters!"
…
Everyone was talking a lot, and for a moment they were very angry, as if they would be sorry for their daughter if they agreed to Qin Rushuang's testimony.
"Everyone! Everyone!" The old housekeeper on the side said hurriedly, suppressing their discussion: "Our princess has something to say."
"What else can I say? Even Prince Huai's Mansion can't force us to harm our children!"
Qin Rushuang took a deep breath and said, "Do you really think that letting the murderer go free is protecting your daughter?"
"What did you say? Could I have harmed her? Didn't Master Qingtian say that the prisoners have been taken to the Yamen? Killing them would be revenge for my daughter!"
"But the person behind it has not yet been found out..."
"What is the mastermind behind this? I heard from others that it is clearly your Prince Huai's Mansion..."
The woman raised her head and looked at the majestic plaque of the palace, swallowed the unpleasant words back in her mouth, snorted coldly, "Anyway, we don't want to be used as a weapon by others, we only want justice, and now His Majesty the Emperor has said that we will
After hearing this matter, our daughter's revenge has been avenged, and we don't want to get involved anymore!"
Qin Rushuang asked, "I heard what people said? Who said this? Now I just ordered a trial at the Yamen. The court has not yet opened. You haven't seen the murderer's testimony yet. Why do you draw a conclusion?!"
When the woman saw that she couldn't say anything to Qin Rushuang, she became angry and said, "I won't go to testify. It's all for the sake of my daughter. We won't go. What do you think? We won't go and we won't be fooled by others."
Gun user!"
"That's it! That's it! I won't go, I won't go!"
While he was talking, there was a man with a sinister look on his face. He squeezed out half of his body and said, "Even if there is something fishy about this matter, it should be King Huai who makes the decision for us. You are a prostitute, do you think what you say counts?"
When the housekeeper heard these rebellious remarks, his face suddenly turned cold: "How outrageous! This is the princess!"
"What's wrong? Do we still want to kill people and silence them? We don't listen to the princess. We want to listen to the prince. What the princess says doesn't count!"
Someone stood up, and others followed suit.
Qin Rushuang felt like her head was buzzing. She was kind enough to save her daughter for these people, but these people looked like this...
"Who says what she said doesn't count? In Prince Huai's Mansion, what Princess Huai says is as if it were my own words!"
A male voice suddenly came from behind.
Qin Rushuang turned back sharply, her eyes were sore, her throat was a little dry, and her voice was trembling without even noticing it...
