Why mess with her? Even the emperor has to pamper her.
Chapter 18: Slight Accusation
After Yun Chu calmly told Gui Yan what he wanted to say to Xie Xuan, Gui Yan began to slowly retreat and finally left quietly.
Yun Qianming had been paying attention to Yun Chuwei, so he naturally saw the returning geese leaving behind her.
But this is something Yun Qianming likes to see.
He glanced at Nanny Song and said, "Mammy, even that maid knew that Yun Chuwei was doomed and ran away stealthily. What are you still doing here?"
Yun Qianming looked at Yun Chuwei with a smug look. He hoped to see Yun Chuwei lose everyone's support, and even more so, he hoped to see Yun Chuwei feel disappointed and painful because of it.
However, he was destined to be disappointed. Nanny Song had a firm expression on her face and did not take any action because of Yun Qianming's words.
Yun Chuwei didn't move at all, and didn't even look back.
Yun Qianming saw that Yun Chuwei was indifferent, and felt a little angry.
On second thought, he felt it was unnecessary.
Soon, Yun Chuwei will be driven out of the capital. I hope she can still remain as indifferent as she is now.
While he was thinking, the housekeeper had already brought Xie Xuan and the prefect of Jingzhao into the yard.
Yun Qianming went to meet them and said to them, "I didn't know that His Royal Highness Prince Xuan and Lord Xu were coming. I am so sorry for not being able to greet them from afar!"
Xie Xuan did not reply, but instead looked at Yun Chuwei with coldness in his eyes.
That look seemed to want to pierce a hole in Yun Chuwei.
Yun Chuwei met Xie Xuan's gaze and felt unsure.
She didn't know whether Gui Yan had conveyed the message.
When Yun Qianming saw Xie Xuan's gaze, he was secretly happy.
His Majesty has issued an edict that His Royal Highness Prince Xuan is Yun Chuwei's fiancé.
However, he had heard before that His Royal Highness Prince Xuan did not like Yun Chuwei and did not want to marry her. Now it seems to be true!
Now, he helped His Royal Highness Prince Xuan drive Yun Chuwei out of the capital. Prince Xuan should be grateful to him, right?
As Yun Qianming thought about it, a hint of high spirits appeared in his smile.
Lord Xu ignored the undercurrents of the few people and said directly: "I rushed here because I received a report. May I ask which one is Miss Yun Chuwei of the Yun family?"
Yun Chuwei walked over calmly, clasped her fists and saluted the two men, and said, "I am Yun Chuwei, honored to meet His Royal Highness Prince Xuan and Lord Xu!"
Lord Xu looked at Yun Chuwei and asked, "You said that a murderer appeared in the Marquis's Mansion. Where is the murderer?"
After hearing this, Yun Qianming quickly said, "That's not the case at all. My mother suddenly fell ill and passed out. I asked Taoist Master Wei Yi from Sanqing Temple to come and see if my mother was contaminated by anything unclean."
"Master Wei Yi saw that Yun Chuwei had run into an evil spirit, causing it to harm my mother, and originally planned to take her back to Sanqing Temple to help her get rid of the evil spirit. In fact, we did all this for her own good, but she thought we were going to harm her, so she sent people to tell nonsense to Lord Xu. Lord, if you don't believe me, just ask Master Wei Yi!"
Lord Xu had also heard of Taoist Master Wei Yi of Sanqing Temple. His wife also often went to the Sanqing Temple to pay homage. His wife said that Taoist Master Wei Yi was an otherworldly master.
Lord Xu looked at Wei Yi and asked, "Master Wei Yi, is this true?"
Wei Yi nodded: "That's true! I came here to save people from evil spirits, not to harm anyone. I didn't expect Miss Yun to ask someone to report the case!"
After hearing this, Lord Xu raised his voice and said, "What nonsense!"
Yun Qianming glanced at Yun Chuwei with some pride, and said to Master Xu with a smile: "Master Xu, you have made a wasted trip. We will teach Yun Chuwei a lesson. Please go and have a cup of tea first, and I will come to greet you later, okay?"
Lord Xu didn't want to drink tea, he just wanted to get back to work.
There are so many things to do. If it weren't for the case reported by the eldest daughter of the Marquis's Mansion, he would not have come in person.
Just as he was about to say goodbye, he heard Yun Chuwei's unhurried voice: "Is this how Lord Xu judges cases? I, the plaintiff, haven't said a word yet, but Lord Xu is going to close the case? If this matter gets to the ears of His Majesty, will His Majesty think that Lord Xu is being too frivolous?"
Lord Xu choked and looked unhappy.
Yun Qianming said to Yun Chuwei unhappily: "Yun Chuwei, shut up..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Xie Xuan's light words.
"It's really too much of a joke."
Xie Xuan's words were not harsh, but they struck directly into everyone's heart.
Yun Qianming fell silent. He was a little flustered. Didn't they say that His Royal Highness Prince Xuan didn't like Yun Chuwei? Why would His Royal Highness Prince Xuan speak up for Yun Chuwei?
Lord Xu's brows were furrowed so tightly that they could kill a mosquito.
The person in front of him is not only the official in charge of the Dali Temple, but also the son of His Majesty.
Yun Chuwei thought he was careless, but he didn't care. If His Royal Highness Prince Xuan thought he was careless, it would not be a small matter.
Lord Xu bowed to Xie Xuan and said, "Your Highness Prince Xuan is right. It was me who was careless."
After he finished speaking, he turned to Yun Chuwei and asked, "Yun Chuwei, you sent someone to report to the officials that there was a murderer in the Marquis' Mansion. I want to ask you, where is the murderer? Where was the murder committed? If you can't explain it, I will punish you for obstructing public service!"
Yun Qianming was delighted. If Lord Xu punished Yun Chuwei, then even if His Royal Highness Prince Xuan wanted to protect Yun Chuwei, he would not be able to do so. At that time, he could still drive Yun Chuwei out of the capital with a little trick.
So, Yun Qianming said, "Yes, Yun Chuwei, if you can't hand over a murderer today, the Marquis' Mansion will not protect you!"
Yun Chuwei didn't even glance at Yun Qianming. She said to Lord Xu, "Sir, the murderer I'm talking about is him!"
Yun Chu raised his hand slightly and pointed at Wei Yi.
Yun Qianming saw this and widened his eyes: "Yun Chuwei, are you crazy? How dare you..."
Yun Chuwei raised his foot and kicked Yun Qianming.
Yun Qianming bent over and hugged his calf, which was hurt by Yun Chuwei's kick, and screamed.
The corner of Lord Xu's mouth twitched slightly: "Miss Yun, what do you mean by taking action in front of me?"
Yun Chu smiled and said, "I just want to make those who have nothing to do with me shut up."
Mr. Xu: ...
This method is indeed very effective, but it is a bit too direct.
When Wei Yi saw Yun Chuwei pointing at him, he smiled slightly, always maintaining his sage appearance.
He said, "Miss Yun, the Third Young Master is an irrelevant person. I should not be considered an irrelevant person, right? I have already said that I came here to exorcise evil spirits and save people. Why did Miss Yun accuse me of murder? After I came out of the Taoist temple, I was always with them. Everyone can prove that I did not hurt anyone."
The young Taoist priest beside Wei Yi and the guards beside him all nodded.
"We have always been with the Taoist priest, and we can prove that he has never hurt anyone!"
Wei Yi looked at Yun Chuwei: "Did you hear that?"
Yun Chuwei smiled faintly: "I said you killed someone, but I didn't say you killed someone today! Do you think that if you wash your bloody hands, no one will know?"
