Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

Seeing all her little schemes exposed in public, Tang Xuening felt a little embarrassed.

She really underestimated Song Ruozhen!

After doing such a despicable thing and being exposed by her in public, he still managed to stay calm and even had the mind to find fault with her.

No wonder she was able to seduce Prince Chu despite her advanced age and broken engagement. With such skills, most women would be no match for her.

"You are so malicious that you ruined He Xiangning's life for your own selfish reasons. I just wanted to reveal the truth to the public. What's wrong with that?"

To be merciful to someone like you is to be cruel to the innocent. I simply want to give He Xiangning justice!

Tang Xuening spoke with righteous indignation, like a heroine devoted to the people, only wanting to bring the murderer to justice.

With her around today, Song Ruozhen has absolutely no chance of making a comeback!

The next moment, she turned to look at He Xiangning, "Xiangning, bring up all the witnesses you found!"

He Xiangning felt uneasy. She had never seen such a grand scene before, let alone with the Empress in charge.

If things don't go well, there will truly be no way to recover. But now that we've already gone all in, there's no turning back.

However, just as He Xiangning was calling for help, Song Ruozhen spoke up:

“Miss Tang, this was not my doing, yet you keep saying I have a heart of stone and ruin my reputation in front of so many people.”

"I'd like to ask you something: what if it turns out that all of this is wrong, that you framed me?"

Tang Xuening paused for a moment, then scoffed, "Impossible! I'm telling the truth. Everything has already been investigated and I would never slander you!"

“Miss Tang, my sister said that she did not do this, so it must not be her. You are just investigating, not witnessing it with your own eyes. Aren’t you afraid of biting your tongue?”

Today, in front of so many people, you slandered my sister's innocence, accusing her of malicious intent. Once it's proven that you're wrong, I expect you to kneel down and apologize to my sister!

Song Yanzhou's eyes were sharp as knives. He had been burning with anger ever since he saw Tang Xuening and He Xiangning acting in concert.

Seeing that his other younger brothers had spoken up, he held back for the time being, but now that He Xiangning was insisting on spouting nonsense, he couldn't help but speak up.

Song Yi'an turned his gaze to Tang Xuening's brother, Tang Hongji, "Young Master Tang, if it was really my sister who did it, we will definitely confess. But if it wasn't my sister who did it, we hope the Tang family can give us an explanation!"

Tang Hongji's expression stiffened slightly. He hadn't expected so many things to happen. Before he could even react, Tang Xuening had already said all that. He didn't even have a chance to stop her!

Before coming, his sister didn't tell him at all!

Tang Hongji hesitated for a moment, but still chose to believe Tang Xuening, thinking that she must have made full preparations and would not speak without reason.

Song Ruozhen ruined Xue Ning's good marriage, so she should pay the price!

"Don't worry, Young Master Song. If my sister has truly wronged Miss Song, I will definitely give you an explanation!"

However, if it is found that Miss Song was responsible, I hope you will not try to deny it!

“Okay!” Song Yi’an replied.

At this moment, He Xiangning had already called several men over. Her eyes were still red, and she looked heartbroken.

"They are the witnesses!"

They took money from Song Ruozhen to do things for her, and it took me a lot of effort to find them.

However, they were afraid of the Song family's power and had never dared to testify for me. It was only thanks to Miss Tang that they dared to stand up. I ask everyone to be my witnesses and clear my name!

He Xiangning was visibly excited, clearly regarding Tang Xuening as her benefactor.

Song Zhiyu was a little nervous at first. Others might not know what his younger sister had done, but he knew perfectly well what she had done.

That night, it was clearly He Xiangning who plotted to frame her own younger sister, intending to kidnap her and throw her into Yong'an Lane. Fortunately, her sister was skilled and saw through their plan.

Otherwise, it would be Fifth Sister who would be ruined now!

Now that He Xiangning has turned the tables on him, he was worried that the guys he had sent away before would be brought back. However, the guys in front of him were obviously not the same as before, which made him feel much more at ease.

"Miss, isn't that Yunzhu?"

When Chenxiang saw one of the men, her expression immediately changed, her eyes filled with disbelief and anger upon learning the truth.

"You traitor! Miss treated him well before, yet he was bribed to harm you!"

Song Ruozhen also recognized one of the men as the servant who had worked in her courtyard before. A few days ago, he had told her that his mother had passed away and that she had given him some money to take back and give her a proper burial.

Who would have thought he was such an ingrate, turning into He Xiangning's dog in the blink of an eye?

Yunzhu noticed Song Ruozhen's gaze and felt a chill run down her spine. She subconsciously lowered her head, not daring to meet his eyes.

"With so many people watching, the Song family can't do anything to you, so just tell the truth!" Tang Xuening said.

Seeing this, Yunzhu and the others seemed to have made up their minds and began to tell the "truth".

"Actually, I've been unable to eat or sleep properly ever since this happened. I never imagined that Miss would be so cruel. It was just a small conflict, and she was going to completely ruin someone!"

After I got back, I couldn't sleep for nights on end, and I was worried that Miss would kill me to silence me, so I left the Song family.

Yunzhu's face was full of fear. She spoke timidly and dared not look at Song Ruozhen, as if she were a monster.

This behavior made everyone feel that he was telling the truth. Just how ruthless must Song Ruozhen be to frighten the servants in the courtyard so much that they fled in the middle of the night?

"It's utterly depraved. That very night, a few of us took money from Miss Song to do our job. We knocked them unconscious, threw them into Yong'an Lane, and even drugged them."

Miss He was completely unaware of this matter, and we felt guilty about it, but it was Miss Song's order, and we dared not disobey.

Otherwise, we'll be the ones who suffer!

As the group recounted what had happened that night, everyone felt a chill run down their spines.

"I never expected Song Ruozhen to be so ruthless. Using such methods against a girl, even if she was on guard, it would be useless. She couldn't escape at all."

"Luckily, I didn't offend Song Ruozhen before, otherwise wouldn't I have ended up like He Xiangning? I forced her to the point of ruin!"

Seeing things developing in the ideal direction, Qin Shuangshuang was secretly delighted and added fuel to the fire:

"Zhiyue, you can never truly know a person's heart just by looking at their face. It's a good thing Miss Song didn't come into the house, otherwise I'm afraid I would have died long ago. Just thinking about it makes me scared!"

Lin Zhiyue looked at Qin Shuangshuang, who had snuggled into his arms, his expression complicated, and he simply didn't know what to say.

"Finished?"

Song Ruozhen listened quietly as these guys finished speaking, then sneered at Tang Xuening, "Your so-called evidence is that you found these people to collude and lie to frame me?"
