Quick Transmigration Sweet Story, The White Moonlight Rescue Plan
Chapter 87 The Wise Cannon Fodder's Path to Crushing Scum (5)
On the spacious and brightly lit stage, the musician was playing the climax of the song.
Xue Zhilan cleared her throat, preparing to sing, but she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her throat, which she didn't pay much attention to.
Just as Xue Zhilan was reciting "Red Dust" in a beautiful and melodious voice...
"The bright moon waxes and wanes, its white light shining for a moment."
If the strings of the zither were to ask, who would answer?
The flowing water carries the scent of the Xiang River, while a mournful wind sweeps across Dongting Lake.
The music ends, the performer is gone, only the green peaks remain on the river.
The originally melodious tone suddenly became sharp and piercing.
Xue Zhilan panicked and tried her best to lower her voice, hoping to restore it to normal. However, her deliberately lowered voice sounded like a sinister and terrifying howl from a demon, which frightened many of the children present to tears.
Emperor Qixuan frowned and asked Lin Heng, who was making the move, "Who is this person?"
Lin Heng is the same Chief Eunuch Lin that Steward Lu just mentioned.
Lin Heng narrowed his lecherous eyes and said with a fawning smile, "Your Majesty, the lady below is Xue Zhilan, the second young lady of the Xue family, who is one of the most talented women in the capital."
Emperor Qixuan said angrily, "This kind of person is a talented woman? Is there no one else in our great Northern Qi? Tell her to leave immediately. Didn't you see those children were almost frightened by her?"
Lin Heng immediately raised his shrill voice and said to Xue Zhilan downstairs, "You're not feeling well, yet you still come up on stage to make a fool of yourself. What are you doing standing there? Quickly step down so as not to disturb His Majesty."
Xue Zhilan was overwhelmed with shame, having been publicly humiliated by that eunuch Lin Heng. Her face was now deathly pale.
How could this be? It shouldn't be like this.
She had practiced "Red Dust" hundreds of times, so how could her voice have become like this for no reason?
It was that cup of tea.
As Xue Zhilan thought of this, her pupils contracted slightly, and she glared hatefully at Zi'er, who was trembling with fear beside her.
Yes, it must be that bitch Xue Xiao who bribed Zi'er to poison her tea, which is why she turned out like this.
Xue Zhilan was unwilling to accept this, so she knelt on the ground and cried out:
"Your Majesty, I am innocent! It's all Xue Xiao's fault. She conspired with my maid to poison my tea, which is why my throat is like this."
The sound was like the mournful wail of a night ghost, terrifying and sinister.
Lin Heng saw that Xue Zhilan was a delicate beauty and originally intended to show mercy, but he did not expect her to be so unreasonable, so he could not be blamed. He gave a wink to the people around him, and the men who were about to attack her jumped down the building and restrained Xue Zhilan so that she could not move.
At this moment, Xue Zhilan was pinned to the ground, her hair was already disheveled, and the hairpins she wore on her head had rolled off the ground.
Xue Zhilan struggled desperately, and her clothes were torn open in the process, revealing her dark red bodice. Her exposed body caused the men in the crowd to stare in disbelief.
"Vixen, she's a demon in disguise."
"This kind of evil spirit probably came from the 18th level of hell specifically to bewitch men."
"People like this should be tied up and burned!"
The wives of the lecherous men in the crowd, seeing their husbands staring blankly at Xue Zhilan, whose clothes were disheveled on the stage, all wished they could tear Xue Zhilan apart on the spot.
Xue Zhilan opened her eyes wide in terror, fearing that she had truly become the evil spirit they spoke of and would be punished on the spot.
The noise gave Emperor Qixuan a headache. He rubbed his forehead, waved his hand, and ordered someone to take Xue Zhilan away immediately.
Xue Zhilan, still unwilling to give up, said, "Your Majesty, everything I have said is true. I hope Your Majesty will see the truth."
At this moment, there was not a trace of warmth in Emperor Qixuan's eyes and brows.
Lin Hengfu thought to himself: This Xue Zhilan is really incredibly stupid, so ungrateful.
If it weren't for the Emperor's consideration for her father, Xue Yao, the Grand Secretary, and her maternal grandfather, Shen Changmin, the Vice Minister of Revenue, the Emperor would have been able to have achieved such success.
She has probably become a wronged soul in this lake, yet she still dares to push her luck.
"Since you say that your sister Xue Xiao framed you, then have someone bring Xue Xiao up as well!"
Xue Zhilan breathed a sigh of relief, secretly delighted. She was determined to teach Xue Xiao a lesson today.
When Shen An saw Xue Zhilan in the audience, he realized that she was no longer the elegant young lady from a prestigious family.
At this moment, Xue Zhilan was like a vulgar prostitute, not only exposing her breasts in public, but also harboring malicious thoughts.
I was so blind to her past with her.
Shen An looked at the person she had just cherished with disgust, then closed her eyes, not wanting to look at them anymore.
Xiao Xiao is still practicing her dance steps.
Then they heard a middle-aged man in a dark purple court robe leading a group of soldiers shout at the steward:
"Is Xue Xiao, daughter of Xue Yao, the Grand Secretary, here?"
The steward stepped forward obsequiously, saying, "Yes, they're rehearsing inside! Does Lord Liao have any instructions?"
Lord Liao ignored the steward and led his men straight into the backstage area to meet Xue Xiao:
"Are you Xue Xiao?"
Xue Xiao bowed in return, saying, "That's right."
Lord Liao glanced at the petite and delicate woman, and couldn't see her at all as the kind of person who would be treacherous and jealous. But remembering that appearances can be deceiving, he coldly ordered his subordinates:
"Take them away!"
Seeing this, Xiao Xiao immediately asked, "Sir, what happened? Why are you taking me away?"
Liao Changqing kept a straight face: "The Emperor summoned you for questioning. Your sister said you poisoned her."
In the original text, Xue Zhilan was not in any trouble. On the contrary, the original owner angered Emperor Qixuan by jumping rope.
It's not fair to blame the original owner for dancing such an unlucky dance on such a joyous day.
After all, she had been raised by her nominal mother to be a good-for-nothing, and fearing she would lose face in front of the palace, she could only listen to Xue Zhilan and go up on stage to jump rope.
Could it be that she didn't fall into the lake, but Xue Zhilan did and was rescued, so Liu Shanshan's revenge was diverted?
Xiao Xiao immediately scanned the room and saw the water glass that Xue Zhilan had just used.
Xiaoxiao gripped her water glass tightly and immediately asked Yaoyao.
After receiving Yao Yao's analysis, Xiao Xiao, holding her water cup, smiled and said to Lord Liao, "May I bring a cup of tea with me, sir?"
Liao Changqing scrutinized him for a moment, then tacitly approved.
After saying that, he led the people away.
Suddenly, that beautiful figure appeared on the stage. Yu Li took a closer look, smiled slightly, and then, as if watching a good show, leaned back in her chair, fanning herself with a fan, and watched the performance.
When Shangguan Jingtai saw that Yu Li, who had just been excitedly telling him about interesting things in the court, suddenly stopped reacting, he also looked downstairs. When he saw that familiar white robe, his expression became somewhat complicated.
When Shangguan Jingde saw that the two suddenly fell silent, fearing that they had noticed something, he immediately ran to the window and asked, pretending not to know, "What are you looking at so intently?"
Shangguan Jingde's response remained silence.
Just as Shangguan Jingde was about to lose his composure, Yu Li spoke up: "What? You've taken a fancy to her!"
"They're already engaged!" Shangguan Jingtai said with a beaming smile.
Yu Li was shocked that Shangguan Jingtai had actually taken a fancy to a married woman.
The girl looked unfamiliar, especially her eyes, which seemed unlike anything he had ever seen before. This drew Shangguan Jingtai's attention, but Yu Li misunderstood the situation.
We can't tarnish the young woman's reputation, so it's best to explain.
Shangguan Jingtai shook his head and sighed, "She is Xue Yao's eldest daughter, and she is betrothed to the third-ranked scholar from the Shen family."
"Is this the legendary, shameless and immoral Miss Xue? She doesn't look like her at all!"
"This is what you call a faceless woman? She must be blind!" Yu Li waved her fan, her face full of disbelief.
Shen An also heard the discussion around him. He paused slightly as he was about to leave, and when he looked up and saw the white figure on the stage, he was shocked.
