Reborn, the daughter of the Marquisate went crazy
Chapter 123 Facing Bo in Court
Seeing that Xie Qingli had discovered the secret of the horsewhip, the maid in green became anxious. She quietly walked behind Xie Qingli, quietly pulled out a dagger from her waist, and suddenly pounced on Xie Qingli.
"Qiuyue, stop it!"
Princess Fu'an scolded her harshly. Ever since she learned that Xie Qingli was a girl, she had been deeply attracted to her and her eyes had been following her. When she saw Qiuyue rushing towards Xie Qingli with a fierce look in her eyes, Princess Fu'an's heart instantly rose to her throat.
Leng Shuang had been standing not far behind Xie Qingli, on full alert. When she saw the green-shirted maid suddenly jump up, her eyes were bloodshot. She jumped up, slapped the green-shirted maid on the back, and kicked her away hard.
The maid in green flew several meters away, spitting blood and falling to the ground.
Seeing his actions hindered once again, Liang Yanqi was filled with rage. He quickly ran to Qiuyue to check on her and found that she was seriously injured. He turned to look at Leng Shuang and shouted, "You bold and unruly people, how dare you beat up the princess's maid in the street!"
Leng Shuang's face was sullen and she said nothing. Her phoenix eyes looked at Liang Yanqi sternly. Her gaze was cold and clear, like a sharp blade piercing through ice in the cold winter.
Liang Yanqi glared at him at first, but was defeated after a few breaths. The creepy fear was like a cold current that instantly penetrated his whole body and made him tremble uncontrollably, as if Leng Shuang's iron fist would be swung at him in the next second.
Princess Fu'an came close to Xie Qingli. She looked at the whip in Xie Qingli's hand and said softly, "Benefactor, what's wrong with this whip?"
Xie Qingli's face was stern, and he whispered, "Your Highness, the accident with your carriage today was probably caused by someone, not an accident!"
"Man-made?" A bolt of lightning exploded in Princess Fu'an's head, and her eyes widened in vain.
Xie Qingli nodded slightly. She raised the whip in front of Princess Fu'an and said softly, "Princess, please look!"
Princess Fu'an glanced at the whip and found nothing unusual. She looked at Xie Qingli in confusion, then moved closer to take a closer look. When she found the embroidery needle on the whip, her pupils shrank.
Xie Qingli whispered, "The whip is soaked in potion, and with the embroidery needle, the potion will enter the horse's body through the wound caused by the embroidery needle, causing the horse to suddenly go crazy."
Princess Fu'an's face was as gloomy as water. Although she was a bit naive, she was not stupid. She glanced coldly at Liang Yanqi, the groom, and Qiyue, and after a moment's thought, she understood everything.
Xie Qingli noticed that the crowd of onlookers was growing larger and larger, and he whispered, "Your Highness, this place is crowded with people and eyes, so it's not appropriate to handle this matter here. Do you want to resolve this privately, or ask the authorities to investigate?"
Princess Fu'an was filled with rage. How dare these people bully her? If she let them go quietly, wouldn't they become even more aggressive in the future? She couldn't imagine what would have happened to her if she hadn't met her benefactor today!
Princess Fu'an ordered in a deep voice: "Go to the Dali Temple to report the case immediately and reveal my name!" A guard quickly took the order and left.
Liang Yanqi saw that things were not going well and turned around to leave.
Princess Fu'an pointed at Liang Yanqi and the others with an angry look on her face and said in a deep voice, "Capture all of these people for me!"
The guards of the princess's mansion rushed forward and firmly controlled Liang Yanqi and others.
Out of the corner of her eye, Xie Qingli saw a few onlookers in the crowd quietly retreating. She signaled Leng Shuang to follow them. Leng Shuang hesitated for a moment before obeying the order and leaving.
The doctor from the clinic and two little medicine boys finally arrived. The doctor carefully examined the purple-clothed maid and found that her injuries were too serious and there was no way to save her.
The doctor bowed to Princess Fu'an and said, "Your Highness, this girl is seriously injured and I can't help her!" After that, he took the medicine boy and left with oil on his feet.
Princess Fu'an squatted down beside the purple-robed maid, her eyes slightly red. Chen Xing was the maid who grew up with her. Was she gone like this?
Xie Qingli squatted down beside Princess Fu'an. She quietly reached out and felt Chen Xing's pulse. A surge of joy filled her heart. There was still hope! She quickly pressed several acupuncture points on Chen Xing's body. Her movements were extremely discreet. To others, it looked like she was helping Chen Xing organize her clothes.
Princess Fu'an felt even more distressed when she saw Xie Qingli's actions, but Xie Qingli whispered to her, "Your Highness, I heard that a new clinic called Miaoxintang has opened in the next street market, and there's a miracle doctor there. If you send her there, there might be hope!"
A glimmer of hope flashed in Princess Fu'an's eyes. She ordered someone to borrow a stool from the nearby shop and carried Chen Xing to Miaoxin Hall.
Just at this moment, Dali Temple Minister Fan Yuan came with a group of yamen runners.
This morning he received an order to stop investigating all cases related to the Huang Dai case, and all related case files were sealed. He secretly thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was indeed as foresighted as a god!
Fan Yuan did not sleep last night. The shadow guard had been collecting all the clues of the two cases overnight, and really helped him to find out several people with suspicious identities. He quickly interrogated those people this morning. Just when he was about to go to sleep, he heard that Princess Fu'an had sent someone to report the case.
The royal princess reported the case, and she was Chu Yuncang's biological sister, so he didn't dare to neglect her and came in person.
When Fan Yuan saw Xie Qingli standing behind Princess Fu'an, he couldn't help but be stunned. Who on earth was this person, and why was he following the prince one moment and the princess the next?!
The bailiffs of the Dali Temple quickly brought all the people to the Dali Temple. Not only did they ask several onlookers to testify, they also brought the horse and carriage that had fallen to the ground to the Dali Temple.
In the lobby of the Dali Temple, Fan Yuan sat at the top, Princess Fu'an sat on a chair next to her, and Xie Qingli stood behind Princess Fu'an.
The bailiffs brought Liang Yanqi and three others to the court.
Liang Yanqi hurriedly bowed to Fan Yuan and immediately cried out for justice, "Master Fan, I was just passing by the market and stopped to take in the excitement. I don't know why I was captured by the princess. Please, Master Fan, help me!"
Fan Yuan was never afraid of these marquises and their sons. Moreover, while the Guangping Marquisate was a long-established mansion, its days were numbered, not as impressive as the upstarts who had risen to prominence in the court over the past two years. He said coldly, "Prince Liang, please be patient. Those who are innocent will be cleared. If you have done nothing wrong, I will clear your name!"
Fan Yuan suddenly slammed the gavel, and the groom kneeling below was trembling with fear. Although Qiu Yue had woken up, her face was pale.
Fan Yuan threw the whip in front of the groom and shouted, "What's the matter with this whip? Tell the truth immediately!"
The groom fell to the ground, trembling, and said in his dying breath, "My lord, I don't know anything!"
Fan Yuan ordered coldly, "You daring and treacherous slave! This whip has been in your hand the entire time, and you dare to claim ignorance? Come, use this whip to whip him fifty times!"
The groom's teeth chattered in shock as he trembled, "No, sir, I'm telling you, it was Miss Qiuyue who arranged this. She ordered me to do it."
"I'm in urgent need of money. She promised to give me 100 taels after the matter is completed."
It was indeed her! Princess Fu'an's face turned pale, and she glared at Qiyue, saying coldly, "Qiyue, I have treated you well since you came to my side. Why did you betray me?"
