Quick Transmigration Sweet Story, The White Moonlight Rescue Plan
Chapter 108 The Wise Cannon Fodder's Path to Crushing Scum (27)
The crowd erupted in an uproar.
"This Miss Xue is actually the one who casts the blood curse! My God!"
"It doesn't look like it!"
"Don't judge a book by its cover, or you'll be fooled!"
……
Most people were still skeptical. Just as everyone was discussing it, Xue Xiao's maid, Ke'er, suddenly knelt down and cried to Xue Xiao, "I'm sorry, Miss! I'm sorry for all the kindness you've shown me over the years, but what you've done is too wicked. For the sake of the Xue family and Madam, I can no longer protect you!"
Ke'er was given to Xue Xiao by Shen Menglan and has been with Xue Xiao for 5 years.
Xue Xiao feigned surprise as she looked at Ke'er, "Ke'er, you..."
Ke'er continued, "Half a year ago, my young lady met a wandering Taoist priest and asked for a talisman. The eldest young lady used her own blood to write the birth dates of the madam and the second young lady on the talisman. The eldest young lady told me that it was for praying for the madam and the second young lady, but it turns out it was specially used to curse the madam and the second young lady!"
Seeing the crowd's reaction, Ke'er continued, "Actually, I've always been jealous of how well the Madam treats the Second Miss, and since the Second Miss is more outstanding than her, I've always held a grudge!"
What a loyal and devoted maid! She had no choice but to expose her mistress for the sake of the bigger picture.
What a wandering Taoist priest! No one can verify the truth of her words. Not only did she convict Xue Xiao, but she also demanded blood from Xue Xiao's brow. Isn't this going to ruin Xue Xiao's appearance?
Those who initially didn't believe it, now that they saw witnesses, all believed that Xue Xiao was the one who cast the vicious blood curse.
In an instant, Xue Xiao became the target of everyone's hatred and became a vicious woman. She cast a blood curse on her own mother and harmed her own sister out of jealousy.
"As expected, people from the countryside are just this vicious."
"I completely misjudged her! I never imagined she was this kind of person!"
"No wonder Xue Zhilan and Shen An did that in the palace. It turns out Xue Xiao also cast a blood curse on Xue Zhilan. I knew it! How could someone who is always so dignified and reserved do such a thing?"
……
The crowd instantly turned against Xue Xiao, praising her as vicious and cruel, completely forgetting what Shen Menglan and Xue Zhilan had done to her.
Yes! Xue Xiao is just a princess in name only, while Shen Menglan and Xue Zhilan are backed by the Shen family, a family with a history of hundreds of years, while Xue Xiao is just the daughter of a country bumpkin.
Although Xue Xiao's biological father, Xue Yao, was the Grand Secretary, he didn't care much about his daughter. There was no reason for him to offend the powerful Shen family for the sake of Xue Xiao.
People weighed the pros and cons and chose Xue Xiao, who was the weakest and most vulnerable. Human nature is so treacherous!
Xiao Guoguo could clearly feel that Xue Chu's body temperature was getting lower and lower, and there was no trace of his previous playful laughter.
At this moment, Xue Xiao's shoulders were trembling uncontrollably.
Everyone thought Xue Xiao was so afraid because his crimes had been exposed, but Xue Xiao's shoulders were shaking more and more violently, and gradually they could hear Xue Xiao's suppressed laughter, as if he was mocking everyone.
Seeing Xue Xiao still smiling at this point, Xue Zhilan panicked and said urgently, "Xue Xiao, Mother has treated you well, why would you cast a blood curse on her? How hateful you are!"
Xue Zhilan took the initiative and convicted Xue Xiao first.
Seeing Xue Zhilan's confident demeanor, everyone became even more certain that Xue Xiao was the one who cast the blood curse.
Xue Xiao gradually stopped laughing and said, "Xue Zhilan! You're saying that you're like this because I cast a blood curse on you, but the Emperor personally bestowed upon me the title of princess! Doesn't that mean the Emperor is also protecting me?"
Yup!
Even if Xue Xiao's princess was not the bestowed by the emperor himself, if Xue Xiao was a wicked person, then the current Emperor Qixuan was also guilty.
People fell silent; they wouldn't dare offend the current emperor even if they had ten times the courage.
Seeing that the crowd seemed to have fallen silent again, Xue Zhilan realized that her efforts had been thwarted by Xue Xiao's few words. She thought bitterly that he was using the current emperor, Qixuan, to pressure her. Her eyes darted around, and she immediately came up with a solution: "Perhaps the emperor has also fallen under your spell!"
After Xue Zhilan said that, people started talking again, and some even began shouting and cursing at Xue Xiao:
"Vicious woman!"
Just then, Xue Chu suddenly said casually, "I remember this Ke'er, she was my sister's maid!"
If Ke'er were just a lowly maid, how could she know so many of Xue Xiao's private matters? Only a personal maid could know such things.
People stopped shouting and fell silent.
Seeing this, Ke'er hurriedly explained, "Miss's intentions are as clear as day! Everyone in the courtyard knows about this!"
Seeing that she had caught him out, Xue Xiao pressed her advantage, saying, "You said everyone in my courtyard knows, but Mother and Second Sister know nothing. Do you think Mother and Second Sister are fools?"
That's why, if everyone knew that Xue Xiao had such thoughts, how could Shen Menglan, as his legal mother, not take precautions?
Instead, she framed him. If that's true, it really raises suspicions!
While everyone's attention was focused on Xue Xiao, Kong Jue realized the situation was bad and was preparing to make a run for it.
He had already thought it all out; at worst, he could just change his name and go somewhere else to make a living.
Kong Jue quickly packed his bags, carefully observing the movements in the crowd, just as he was about to make his escape.
He was stopped by a gentle voice: "Master Kongjue!"
Xiao Xiao's eyes, like autumn water, shimmered with a deep, enigmatic light.
Looking at Xiao Xiao like this, Kong Jue couldn't help but feel a little scared and swallowed hard.
Xiao Xiao took out a handkerchief, a small handkerchief embroidered with the character "fragrance," and said gently, "Master looks exhausted, you're all sweating! I have a handkerchief here, let me wipe your sweat!" She then handed the handkerchief to Kong Jue to wipe his sweat.
The sweat that Kong Jue was sweating at this moment was cold sweat from being frightened, not from the fight, because Kong Jue recognized this handkerchief.
Kong Jue was not only stingy, but also had a strange quirk: he liked to collect women's handkerchiefs.
Previously, at another residence, I saw a handkerchief that I really liked, so I secretly hid it during a religious ceremony. It is the one that Xiaoxiao has in her hand now. Kongjue clearly remembers that the handkerchief was embroidered with the character "香" (fragrant).
Just as Xiaoxiao handed Kongjue a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, Yuli, who was sitting next to Shangguan Jingtai, could clearly hear the sound of the teacup shattering in Shangguan Jingtai's hand.
Looking at Shangguan Jingtai's expression, although he appeared calm and collected, Yu Li knew that Shangguan Jingtai was very angry.
Right now, Shangguan Jingtai probably wants to devour Kong Juesheng alive!
Yu Li suppressed a laugh. It was truly rare to see Shangguan Jingtai suffer setbacks when it came to women. Since Xiao Xiao appeared, she had brought him many surprises.
However, when Yu Li looked at the little girl, her figure in the crowd was so thin and frail. How could she withstand so much criticism?
Kong Jue took Xiao Xiao's handkerchief and tremblingly wiped the sweat from his brow, his heart filled with fear. He didn't know how many of his secrets this woman knew, nor did he dare to know.
Just as Kong Jue was wiping away his sweat, Xiao Xiao whispered something to him. Kong Jue's face turned pale, and he suddenly collapsed to the ground.
Kong Jue looked at Xiao Xiao with an extremely frightened expression.
Xiao Xiao only mentioned Kong Jue's Buddhist name before he came to the capital, which was the former Master "Nian Wu".
Kong Jue not only swindled people in the capital, but also in various parts of Northern Qi, because he accidentally obtained two human skin masks. He always wore the masks when he was swindling people, and he still does now.
So no one could recognize him as "Nianwu" from back then. How did this woman know?
When Shangguan Jingtai saw Xiaoxiao, he not only handed Kongjue a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, but also spoke to him softly and even smiled!
Upon seeing this, Shangguan Jingtai suddenly stood up, suppressing his anger, and said to Yu Li beside him with a livid face, "I'm going out for a walk!"
Before Yu Li could react, he stormed off, his wide sleeves sweeping up the bottles and jars on the table, smashing them to pieces on the floor.
Xiao Xiao: "The master said this demon is a celestial fiend, extremely malevolent! But this demon was already so powerful during the battle just now. Could it be an illusion? Is the person we're seeing now not the real one casting the spell?"
As soon as Xiaoxiao finished speaking, Kongjue, being a shrewd man, immediately understood!
Kong Juecai wouldn't risk his life for Xue Zhilan's small sum of money; he needed to change his strategy quickly.
Kong Jue immediately understood and said, "Miss Xue is right! This demon is always cunning. Let me cast the spell again and see if it's real or not!"
As he spoke, Kong Jue ordered someone to retrieve another jade hairpin from Shen Menglan. He sat down to meditate, chanting incantations. Kong Jue's expression gradually turned ugly, and large beads of cold sweat dripped from his head to his chin. It seemed that he was about to have another fierce battle with that demon.
The jade hairpin began to spin once again.
Seeing how hard the short seller was working, people began to believe that this time it was real and the previous one was fake.
The jade hairpin spun for a while and pointed at a woman. The woman was immediately terrified and went limp. Just as the woman was about to explain, the jade hairpin started spinning again, and the woman finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The jade hairpin spun for a long time, stopping and starting. At first, when it stopped, it caused a stir, but later people became indifferent to it.
When the jade hairpin pointed at Xue Zhilan, people initially thought it would spin again, but after waiting for a while it didn't move, and gradually people started to talk about it.
