When Jiang Wanrou heard Doctor Xu say that she was not poisoned, she instantly became emotional and instinctively looked at Xiao Mingchen, wanting him to believe her.

As far as her eyes could see, she just happened to see Ling Yueqing quietly leaning out from behind Xiao Mingchen, looking at her with a bright smile.

Jiang Wanrou screamed instantly, "I was poisoned. It was that bitch Yuwen Qing who gave me an aphrodisiac and made me mute. This imperial physician must be in cahoots with her. They teamed up to harm me."

As soon as she finished shouting, the scene fell into an eerie silence.

Ling Yueqing couldn't help but click her tongue. System, you are such a shit. You are better than me at house fighting. The time is so stuck.

This time, I can’t explain it even if I have a mouth.

Doctor Xu was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and only said, "Miss Jiang's voice is loud. I'm sorry that my medical skills are not good, but I really can't tell what's wrong." Then he packed up his medicine box and walked aside without saying anything else.

Isn't this just a joke? They brought him here from far away, pretended to be deaf and dumb and asked him to see a doctor, and then said that he was in collusion with others to poison him. He won't take the blame for this.

As soon as Doctor Xu said this, Jiang Wanrou's pretense of being mute was almost confirmed. Everyone knew that Doctor Xu's medical skills were among the best in the Imperial Hospital. If he hadn't been lazy and always taking leave, the position of director would have been his.

"Father, I..."

After Jiang Wanrou finished scolding people, she was surprised to find that she could speak. After a moment of joy, she realized that she should not speak, and looked at Jiang Yushi with grievance.

She saw Censor Jiang glaring at her fiercely, and she was so scared that she didn't dare to speak.

Ling Yueqing's words interrupted the peace.

"Miss Jiang, please don't spit blood at me. I came here with Xiao Cui to change clothes. After changing clothes, I heard that the flowers in the back garden were blooming very luxuriantly, so I went to take a look. I just came back."

"As soon as I came back, I saw Miss Jiang... like this."

Ling Yueqing's eyes swept over Jiang Wanrou, and Jiang Wanrou was so frightened that she hurriedly tightened her cloak.

"You're talking nonsense. The person lying here today should be you! It's you..."

With a crisp "pa——" sound, Censor Jiang slapped Jiang Wanrou in the face, stopping her from saying the next word.

Then he defined today's events with one sentence, "The little girl is a little reckless because she is just beginning to fall in love. In fact, my daughter and Xu's cousin Jincheng have already been engaged."

"I'm sorry to have made a fool of myself today. I hope you will all come and have a drink at my daughter's wedding day.

"It's natural."

"Then congratulations to Censor Jiang in advance."

Everyone knew the situation clearly. When they came to propose marriage, even the censor's wife looked down on them. How could she possibly marry her daughter to a merchant family without an official position?

But everyone did a great job on the surface.

Everyone began to praise the two against their will, saying they were a match made in heaven and that they were a handsome man and a beautiful woman.

Ling Yue almost laughed out loud while listening.

Although Jiang Wanrou has a bad character, she has an outstanding appearance. She is known as the second most beautiful woman in Shengjing. Although there is some exaggeration, she is still one of the best. Needless to say, her family background is of great importance in the entire Shengjing city.

Look at Xu Jincheng again, although he is handsome, he has been indulging in sex for many years and has no energy at all, and looks very weak.

His talent is beyond compare, and he is considered a top player in the field of cat and dog teasing for many years.

Even the title of a wealthy merchant family was barely ranked because of the marriage with the Censorate.

Can this be called a match made in heaven?

Oh, if we talk about their character, they are indeed a bunch of snakes and rats.

Before Jiang Wanrou could react, Xu Jincheng was already happily calling him father-in-law.

"Yes, yes, my father-in-law is right. My cousin and I are engaged. In a few days, she will be my wife."

Xu Jincheng didn't care what the situation was like, he only knew that he got what he wanted.

He has been coveting his cousin for a long time. Among all the women he has seen, his cousin is the most beautiful. Most importantly, his cousin is not like the other daughters of wealthy families who are dignified, self-contained and very boring.

He once secretly saw his cousin learning the seductive moves from a famous prostitute, and from then on, every time he saw his cousin, he felt itchy in his heart.

However, he asked his father and mother to go to the Censorate to propose marriage many times, but was rejected by his aunt every time.

Now that his uncle had admitted it in public, Xu Jincheng's smile became more and more smug as he recalled the wonderful feeling in bed and his cousin's exquisite figure.

Jiang Wanrou was stunned for a moment. She didn't believe that these words were spoken by her father, Jiang Yushi. Didn't her father value her the most? How could he marry her to such a fool?

Seeing that Jiang Wanrou was still in disbelief, Ling Yueqing brought her back to reality with a word.

"Master Xu is really good at naming. Jincheng Jincheng, now that he is the son-in-law of the Imperial Censorate, he really has a bright future."

"No, I don't want to marry him!"

"Dad, this is not true. A few days ago you said you wanted me to enter the palace to be your queen. I will not look for the prince anymore. I will listen to you and enter the palace..."

"Pa——" an even louder slap sounded.

"What nonsense are you talking about? When did your father ever say that?"

Censor Jiang was almost pissed off by this rebellious girl. She asked you to go before but you didn't listen and kept chasing after King Zhan every day.

Now you are in this shabby state, and you told me that you want to enter the palace to be a queen? Or in front of so many people, are you dissatisfied with the censor's mansion being rich and prosperous for too long?

Although Censor Jiang's eyes were as sharp as a knife when he looked at Jiang Wanrou, Jiang Wanrou no longer had time to be afraid. No matter what, she absolutely could not marry her cousin, this loser.

"Dad, I won't marry. I would rather become a nun than marry him."

No one seemed to expect that Jiang Wanrou's attitude would be so firm.

When Xu Jincheng heard this, he became furious. She was flirting with him every day and really thought she was a chaste and heroic woman.

When she gets married, she will be in trouble. So Xu Jincheng said with concern, "My cousin was just frightened for a moment, and her mind is a little confused. She will be fine when she calms down."

Jiang Wanrou stared at Xu Jincheng's mouth as he spoke, stunned for a moment, and suddenly, as if her Ren and Du meridians were opened, she pointed at him.

Shouted, "Dad, I remember now. It was him. He forced me to do this."

"Dad, kill him!"

Xu Jincheng panicked when he saw everyone's eyes were on him.

He is the kind of person who usually teases people and bullies the weak and fears the strong. He would be scared to death in such a situation.

"Don't talk nonsense, it was you who asked me to come here."

"What I said is true. Yu'er and I were admiring the flowers at the time. You sent a message asking me to come to the guest room. Yu'er can testify. Yu'er, tell me, is that right?"

Jiang Wanrou looked at Yu'er for help. As long as Yu'er testified for her, there would be hope.
