Quick Transmigration Sweet Story, The White Moonlight Rescue Plan
Chapter 140 The Charming and Gentle Prince and His Substitute Beauty Wife (21)
When Li Zixuan arrived at the flower pond, he saw several maids surrounding Xiaoxiao, and a few others who could swim were searching for something in the pond.
Upon seeing the bright red jacket on the shore, Li Zixuan's pupils constricted. He stumbled forward, found Qiao'er crying in the crowd, and shouted, "What's going on?"
Qiao'er seemed too heartbroken to answer Li Zixuan's question.
It was the old nanny standing nearby who spoke for her: "Reporting to Your Excellency, it was our young lady who caused Miss to fall into the water."
“Granny Chen, you’re not right. It must have been our young lady who deliberately threw Miss into the water. We all saw it with our own eyes. You can’t lie to the adults!” said an old woman with a pointed mouth and monkey-like cheeks.
Li Zixuan frowned as he looked at Xiaoxiao, who was surrounded by people, his face clearly showing disbelief.
Qiao'er panicked and immediately hugged Li Zixuan's leg, crying, "Young Master, I'm so sorry to you and Miss! Please hand Miss over to this heartless man, and you'll be even more sorry to the deceased Young Mistress!"
"What exactly happened?" a servant asked as he stepped forward.
"You don't know? Then let me tell you, our girl looks like Lord Li's deceased fiancée, so Lord Li's child is especially attached to her!" The man continued vividly as the crowd gradually gathered.
"Don't you know that our young lady hates children the most? So, when that little girl was making too much noise, she threw her into the pond, intending to punish her, but she never came back up."
Ever since Xiao Xiao passed away, the original owner really disliked children, because she was afraid that seeing children would remind her of Xiao Xiao.
To maintain her public image, Xiao Xiao naturally ordered that children not be allowed near the garden, so everyone assumed that Xiao Xiao disliked children.
However, having a child before marriage suggests that Li Zixuan's reputation for being abstinent and celibate was unfounded.
The child's mother is dead, which is pitiful, but even so, Xiaoxiao cannot lay a hand on the child!
That's too cruel!
Li Zixuan looked directly at Xiaoxiao after hearing what the person said: "Is that so?"
"Do you believe it?" Xiao Xiao asked, seeing that Li Zixuan hadn't answered.
"I don't believe it!" Li Zixuan glanced at Qiao'er kneeling on the ground, his disgust growing even stronger.
How could this be?
Young Master Mingming usually gets extremely angry when it comes to Miss Mingming's affairs, so why is he different here?
No!
It seems I need to unleash another killer move.
Just then, the people searching in the pond seemed to have found Xiao Xiao and shouted excitedly.
"Found it! Found it!"
Several people pulled a bloated, submerged corpse from the pond.
The body was wearing the outer coat that Xiao Xiao had worn at the time, and its face was so swollen that its features were unrecognizable.
Everyone was shocked.
The crowd, who had initially remained skeptical, instantly believed Qiao'er's words and concluded that Xiao Xiao was the one who killed Xiao Xiao.
Just as everyone was shouting to arrest Xiaoxiao and hand her over to the authorities.
"Let's see who dares!" Xiao Xiao shouted.
Everyone was taken aback again, and some who felt guilty stopped what they were doing.
"Miss Wen, Heaven is watching what people do. Aren't you afraid of retribution?" Qiao'er pointed at Xiao Xiao and scolded her.
"Heh! You should be saying that to yourself!"
Qiao'er was taken aback, and said guiltily, "I have never done anything wrong, so naturally I am not afraid of ghosts knocking on my door!"
"Oh?" Xiaoxiao looked at Qiao'er with a profound and unfathomable expression.
Qiao'er swallowed hard and said, "Of course!"
Xiao Xiao calmly continued, "Then tell me how I managed to throw a woman weighing over 100 pounds into this river?"
Only then did everyone stare at the body that had been pulled out of the water. The small clothes had obviously been forced on, and the folds of the clothes were torn, clearly not fitting properly.
"Then I'd like to ask, from just now until now, it's only been a quarter of an hour. Even if I had thrown Xiaoxiao into the pool as soon as I arrived, she would only be in the water for a short while. How come Xiaoxiao's face is so swollen?"
Yes, logically speaking, this is not normal. Looking at the swollen face of the corpse, it would take at least seven or eight days for it to become like this.
"Who knows if you switched the body?" Qiao'er was still struggling in her death throes.
At that moment, a chilling voice came from behind the crowd: "When would my woman do such a thing?"
Han Chaoning wore a red brocade robe, her silky black hair tied up high with a red hair crown, with only a few strands of black hair hanging down her ears, swaying gently in the wind, like willows in spring, elegant and graceful.
Han Chaoning, holding the still-sleeping Xiaoxiao in his arms, appeared before everyone like an immortal being.
Everyone fell silent, looking at Han Chaoning and Xiao Xiao in front of them.
Qiao'er, who had just been crying her heart out, suddenly fell silent.
Seeing Xiaoxiao is like seeing a ghost!
How can this be?
I clearly threw that little bitch into the pond, how come she's still alive?
"This, this is impossible!" Qiao'er pointed at Xiao Xiao and cried out in a shrill voice.
Xiao Xiao, nestled in Han Chaoning's arms, seemed to have been awakened by Qiao'er's noise. She sat up, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and asked Qiao'er in a daze, "Sister Qiao'er, why did you take so long to come?"
When Li Zixuan saw Xiao Xiao, his heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down: "What happened?"
Looking at the scene before her, Xiao Xiao was completely bewildered: "Sister Qiao'er said there were big red carp in the pond, and told me to go and catch them while she went to get help. But Sister Qiao'er hasn't come back yet, and my coat is wet, so I have to go ask my second uncle for help!"
When Han Chaoning heard the name of Xiaoxiao's second uncle, the corner of his mouth twitched noticeably. It seemed that this ideological work was still quite a long way off.
The novel's words mean that Qiao'er is lying and deliberately framing Xiao Xiao as a murderer!
Children's words are unbridled!
This is precisely the most powerful proof; who would believe that a two- or three-year-old child would lie?
Seeing the unfriendly looks from everyone, Qiao'er remained calm on the surface, but her heart was in turmoil: "Miss, are you mistaken? I didn't ask you to catch fish. It was Miss Wen who punished you by making you reflect on your mistakes in the pond."
"Mother wouldn't be that kind of person! Mother loves me so much!" Xiao Xiao said with a serious expression, looking very angry because of Qiao'er's words.
"There are still fish I caught in that basin, look if you don't believe me!" Xiao Xiao pointed to the wooden basin held by the maid, in which there were several small red carp.
Now people were even more convinced that Qiao'er was lying.
"Miss, it is clearly..." Qiao'er wanted to say something more.
"Enough! Aren't you ashamed? There are witnesses and physical evidence. What are you trying to argue about?" Li Zixuan said angrily.
"Young Master!" Qiao'er was suddenly alarmed when she saw Li Zixuan's cold and indifferent face filled with anger.
Finished!
She knew the young master too well; he was truly angry.
"Young master, please forgive me this time for the sake of Madam! I've served you for so many years, and I've done my part, even if I haven't done anything great!" Qiao'er cried, clinging to Li Zixuan's leg.
Is Qiao'er admitting that she's lying?
Xiao Xiao understands Li Zixuan. If Qin Xueyan is Li Zixuan's first weakness, then his birth mother, Qin Shi, is Li Zixuan's second weakness.
Li Zixuan seemed to be very filial to Qin Shi, but the original owner had not spent much time with Qin Shi and did not know this mother-in-law very well.
When the original owner married Li Zixuan, all she knew was that her mother-in-law was in very poor health. In addition, she ate vegetarian food and chanted Buddhist scriptures all day long, so she didn't get enough nutrition and looked very thin.
He caught a cold on his way to burn incense and fell seriously ill, passing away not long after.
Although they didn't spend much time together, Xiaoxiao knew that Qin was a very rule-abiding person. In her eyes, Qiao'er was Li Zixuan's concubine, regardless of whether they had consummated their marriage. Because of this, Qiao'er often acted arrogantly in front of the servants and offended many people.
Qiao'er wanted to use Qin Shi to pressure Li Zixuan.
Make him afraid to touch her?
The original owner loved Li Zixuan, which is why she let her run wild on her head for so long. Now that it's her turn, she won't let her get away with it!
Xiao Xiao decided to let Qiao'er taste the water in the pool as well!
The real show is yet to come!
