Just because she looks weak doesn't mean she's easy to bully.
Chapter 27 Taken away
Jingzhao Yin also came today. He was originally invited by the prince consort, but today he came with a group of people.
Cheng Jinchu and Yunzhi were taken away by him together. After his people left, Jingzhao Yin knelt in front of the princess.
"This person is involved in some cases, so I have to take him away!"
After Jingzhao Yin finished speaking, he kowtowed to the princess and did not raise his head from the ground, appearing to be admitting his mistake sincerely. After all, this was the princess's plum blossom viewing banquet, and he came here to arrest people, which was obviously not giving the princess face.
The princess waved her hand.
"I don't know if you knew this true or false story in advance. All the ladies here have heard about it today. I think there must be a lot of grievances in it. However, since the person was captured from me, I had a good impression of the fake lady you mentioned..."
The princess paused here. Everyone was confused as to what she meant by this. Was she speaking for the fake one? Was she speaking for the fake one because it was pretty?
Jealousy is a good thing. Even those who were not familiar with Cheng Jinchu still started to not wish others well because they were jealous of others' good looks.
However, most people remain neutral and do not think that good-looking people are necessarily not capable of doing such things. Similarly, it is unwise to favor the so-called "victim" based on what that person said casually.
Therefore, most people still didn't say anything. They knew all the shameful things going on in the back house very well. If they didn't speak out before a decision was made, they would not bring disaster upon themselves.
Of course, there are some very naive young ladies among these people. They are filled with righteous indignation and even say that they will go back to their fathers to ask for help and vent their anger!
Jingzhao Yin kowtowed again.
"Your Highness, what do you mean?"
The princess chuckled, took the tea from the maid and took a sip.
"What I mean is that I want you, Jingzhao Yin, to investigate the case carefully to see if I am such a short-sighted person. If someone is framing her, Jingzhao Yin took the person back like this today, which must have scared the girl. I will definitely help her get it back."
At this time, a fearless noble lady rushed up. The little girl looked only twelve years old and was very cute.
"Your Highness, this clearly shows that the woman is an unforgivable villain. Does Your Highness also judge people by their appearance? Is she innocent just because she is pretty?"
The woman stood up without any greeting and shouted at the princess. The princess frowned slightly as she looked at the woman who suddenly rushed out in front of her.
"Princess, please forgive me. This is my little niece. She just came back from the border. I don't know the etiquette. Please forgive me, Princess!"
A woman rushed out, held the woman's head and knelt down in front of the princess, her face full of panic.
"Le'er, don't be angry. This girl is the granddaughter of Ning'an Marquis. Her parents died in the battle on the border. The little girl is young, so it's inevitable that she lost her mind when she saw these things. I heard that this girl was born and raised on the border, so it's understandable that she lacks etiquette. You, don't bother with a little girl!"
The person who was speaking was the princess's best friend, Lady Ning, the wife of Duke Xie. She had been the princess's study companion and they had been friends since childhood, and it had been forty years now.
"Tang'er, you are just soft-hearted. Forget it. That girl's parents died for their country. This princess will punish her lightly today and give her a severe warning. Tomorrow I will have Madam Qian from the palace go to your house and teach her the rules."
Being able to invite a nanny to teach in the palace is a privilege only available to the noble families, but this Nanny Qian is the least popular one.
It’s not that Nanny Qian was a bad teacher. The rules for the girls she taught were the best. It’s just that Nanny Qian was particularly strict and her punishments were the most severe. Those who had been taught by her would tremble when Nanny Qian’s name was mentioned.
The ladies present who knew Madam Qian all looked unhappy. They looked at the girl with sympathy. Why did she have to run out and stand out for herself?
"Forget it, just leave now. You have a lot to do. Didn't I say that you have all the evidence? Go back to the case! Don't let such a case, which you have vowed to do, end up with a result that goes against your wishes and you will be embarrassed."
The princess waved at the Jingzhao Yin, but when he didn't move, she frowned in displeasure.
"Don't leave yet! You don't expect me to keep you here to appreciate the plum blossoms, do you?"
The Jingzhao Yin didn't dare to stay any longer, so he kowtowed and left. The second son of Zhao had not looked good since Cheng Jinchu was taken away. He was regretting it now. Why did he do such a stupid thing?
Even if this is to help vent anger, the beauty has been wronged this time, and it is caused by himself, so his image will inevitably suffer. What if he saves the beauty and she doesn't appreciate it?
Moreover, he now has a feeling that if the evidence is complete, the girl will definitely be able to turn things around. This feeling is very strong.
Especially when the girl was taken away, although she was crying, she gave people the feeling that she was just trying her best to cry and was not at all panicked about the upcoming imprisonment.
He regretted it so much. If he had gone to the Shen Mansion in advance and talked to Lord Shen, both of them would have been willing to stay. What's going on now?
The matter has become so serious that it is impossible for anyone to make any small moves. The princess will definitely send people to keep an eye on her. What if the beauty is convicted and beheaded? No, he has to ask his mother to ask his father for help.
Young Master Zhao looked at the woman crying in Sun Manman's arms, and he didn't feel any pity at all, only disgust. He had chosen her in the first place because she was pretty and pleasing to others, but now he felt that she could only cry and made people upset!
"This Shen Taohua, Miss Shen, please let Madam take her back. My Zhao family saved her life, and now we have brought her here safely."
Before Sun Manman could say anything, the Second Young Master Zhao turned around and left, bringing up a gust of wind. Sun Manman and the others were dumbfounded as they watched him trot away quickly.
This……
Sun Manman watched the people leave. Because there were many ladies and young ladies present, she just calmly pried open "Shen Taohua's" hands, walked to the princess and knelt down.
"I want to take my daughter back home now. Thank you for your hospitality today, Princess. I hope you will forgive me for disturbing you with these things at home."
The princess had a headache. She had heard the word "forgiveness" many times today. She really didn't want to forgive those people. She was very annoyed and waved her hands impatiently at Sun Manman, signaling her to take her people away quickly.
Sun Manman didn't dare to stay, so she immediately stood up and grabbed "Shen Taohua" and left.
After getting on the carriage, Sun Manman began to close her eyes and rest. Her choice today was completely due to being threatened by someone. She simply didn't want to look at Mo Ling, the hateful girl sitting next to her. However, this girl looked somewhat similar to Aunt Mo. She had heard that Aunt Mo looked a lot like her sister. Maybe this was true!
Even if it wasn't the case in the end, she could still say that she was a lady who had just married into the Shen family. How could she judge these things completely? She just stood up for the poor things she heard, just like the impulsive little girl today.
The fake daughter Mo Ling, today, she first watched the second son of Zhao leave without mercy, and then Sun Manman, who seemed to sympathize with her and took her to the Shen Mansion, but did not even give her a chance to speak once she got on the carriage.
They are all good, but that woman will never stand up. She has sufficient evidence. Her nominal grandfather is already dead. The people in the villa can be said to have been bribed. Their testimony is useless. The county magistrate will die as well. They will all be beaten to death by the evidence.
Once she has established a foothold in the imperial capital, she will not let any of these people go!
