There was a problem with the inkstone. Qi Xiangyu's face changed drastically. She suddenly thought of something and glared at Miss He Si.
The inkstone was given by her, but she bought it together with Fourth Miss He. How could she not know at this time that Fourth Miss He had taken advantage of her to give her this gift? No wonder she had been busy running around these days, helping her a lot and even thinking of things that she had not thought of.
"Miss He Si, do you think this sachet is mine?" Qu Moying continued to ask.
"You were the only one under your bed at that time. Who else was there besides Fourth Miss Qu?" Fourth Miss He gritted her teeth and resisted.
"My sachet is not this one." Qu Moying looked at the belt around her waist. There was still a small piece of it on it. The color was similar. "As for where it is, there is no rush."
Qu Moying clapped his hands.
Yudong turned around and went outside, and soon she and Nanny Miao brought someone in.
He was wearing a navy blue robe and had his head bowed deeply. Judging from his hairline, he must be a man.
Another man
Everyone couldn't help but get agitated and looked at each other, wondering why the matter was becoming more and more mysterious.
Nanny Miao stepped forward, bowed to the people above her, then put her hand on the man's neck and forcefully made him raise his head.
"female?"
"Is this a woman?" Everyone was immediately confused. This face looked like a woman, but why was she wearing men's clothes
Miss He Si's back was covered in cold sweat. She opened her mouth, but found that she couldn't utter a word. Her face was as pale as snow, and her neck was almost stiff. She looked at this man, and then at the man who was still unconscious on the ground.
"This person is the one who entered my room at that time. I should have been drugged and drowsy at that time. Yudong was led away by someone, and Nanny Miao was outside and had not come back yet. All the timing was perfect." Qu Moying said coldly, his eyes sweeping over Fourth Miss He, and finally falling on Liu Jingyu.
Everyone knows what will happen in this situation.
In particular, the two people wore the same navy blue robe, not only the color but also the style.
"Luckily, Aunt Miao came back and stopped this person. Later, she found that she was about to jump into the lake, so she held her down. When the young ladies came in, Aunt Miao took her to the compartment. The so-called sound from behind was just Aunt Miao pulling a piece of similar cloth and throwing it towards the hole in the wall into the lake. There was a bell hanging from the window under the cloth, and it sank quickly!"
Qu Moying curled his lips, and a hint of coldness appeared in his eyes.
"Before, I felt a little unwell, and a maid took advantage of the situation and tried to grab my sachet. Yudong saw that the sachet on the ground was mine, so she hurriedly picked it up. In order to prevent someone from using the sachet to cause trouble, the sachet is now with His Royal Highness the King of England."
Pei Yuanjun reached out and took out the sachet lazily from his sleeve, placed it on the table without saying a word, leaned back, closed his eyes as if half asleep, and said nothing.
Only the occasional movement of his long eyelashes indicated that he was not really asleep.
Pei Luoan and Pei Yusheng looked at each other, Pei Luoan lowered his head, as if it had nothing to do with him. Pei Yusheng frowned tightly, his eyes fell on the sachet on the table. There was a small piece of strap on the sachet, which happened to match the small piece on Qu Moying's waist, making people know at a glance that this was the original wife.
As for the other sachet, it must have been placed under the bed by someone on purpose.
First knock the person unconscious, then
The sachet was torn off, and then another sachet appeared under Qu Moying's couch. The man in navy blue clothes jumped into the lake from the platform behind the house and disappeared. In another place near the lake, a man in navy blue clothes was rescued. No matter what this man said, it didn't matter anymore.
The most important thing is that this matter is beyond dispute.
No matter what the parties say, the evidence is there and is more convincing than what the parties say. In this situation, Qu Moying's final fate can be imagined.
If it really reached the hands of the Queen, whether for the sake of the royal family's face or for other reasons, Qu Moying would have no way out.
"Drag this person away and skin him alive! Send all those associated with her to the Western Prison together." Pei Yuanjun said lazily.
Everyone felt a chill in their hearts and their faces turned pale for no apparent reason. There seemed to be a bloodthirsty smell in the air. Several timid young ladies leaned on the shoulders of their maids, trembling.
"Your Highness, please spare me, Your Highness, please spare me. This was done by Fourth Miss He. I am a maid in the He residence, and I came here to help today." The maid, who was dressed as a man in navy blue clothes, could no longer stand. She knelt down with weak legs, sat heavily on the ground, and burst into tears.
Pei Yuanjun waved his hand, and two guards came over, dragging the maid who had fallen to the ground out.
"Uncle Wang... do you want to ask again?" Pei Yusheng's face didn't look very good, but he had to say it.
"What are you asking? Why do you want to harm Fourth Miss Qu?" Pei Yuanjun's cold voice was filled with undisguised impatience. He reached out and flicked the dust that didn't exist on his sleeves. The corners of his thin lips curled up slightly, and his eyes swept coldly over everyone present. "You came here today just to show me this?"
"Uncle Wang, did you have any misunderstanding?" Pei Yusheng looked at Fourth Miss He who had collapsed to the ground and glared at her with disappointment.
If I had known that she was an ignorant person, why would I have allowed her to come to Beijing
I only regret that I didn't try to stop it at that time. This He Si is really not able to do anything good, but is always causing trouble.
"Someone, take her down..." Pei Yuanjun glanced at Pei Yusheng with a half-smile, "What should we do next? Don't I need to tell you?"
After saying that, he stood up and looked at Qu Moying on the side, "Miss Qu Si, are you going to stay?"
"I... am not feeling well..." Qu Moying looked at Liu Jingyu and said decisively, "Lord Jingyu, I would like to take my leave first."
"Should we invite a doctor for Miss Qu Si?" Liu Jingyu had already reacted by now, and asked hurriedly with concern, "I have been very busy these past few days, and my cousin has helped me a lot. Miss He Si came here with my cousin, and I thought she was helping me sincerely, but I didn't expect that she had ulterior motives."
After Liu Jingyu finished speaking, he bowed deeply to Qu Moying to express his apologies as the host.
Qu Moying smiled slightly, a little coldly, and turned around to follow Pei Yuanjun out.
Miss He's hands and feet were cold and her whole body was trembling. To slander the royal family was a capital crime. Although Qu Moying was not one now, Pei Yuanjun's offer to take her back meant that he had recognized her position as the princess.
"Miss Qu was previously betrothed to..." Miss He was really trying her best at this time. She cried loudly to Pei Yuanjun who was walking over, and she wanted to dig up the past between Qu Moying and her brother. As long as the King of England did not acknowledge it, Qu Moying would not be a member of the royal family.
Liu Jingyu's eyes moved. She knew what Miss He was going to say next.
He took a step back with a frown on his face, and slightly pressed down the corners of his lips to suppress the urge to laugh. Was he going to expose Qu Moying's affairs
"Bang!" A heavy kick caused Miss He to fall backwards, and several young ladies behind her were also knocked pale and staggered to the ground.
Pei Yuanjun's cold voice sounded: "This time when I returned to the capital, my temper has improved a lot. King Jing, this cousin of your He family has stretched her hands too far, almost reaching the palace. Do I have to ask your He family about everything I do in the future?"
These words were almost heart-breaking. If the He family dared to interfere in the affairs of the King of England, did it mean that they were so powerful that they could do whatever they wanted
Pei Yusheng's face turned pale, then red again, and he shouted, "Someone, take her away."
This He Si can no longer be saved.
If he continued to protect her, he might even be implicated. Pei Yuanjun was never someone to be trifled with, especially today when he witnessed with his own eyes the framing of the fourth young lady of the Qu family.
What was He Si doing, if not courting death? Who gave her the idea? She was so bold that she even dared to make a desperate move and tell everyone about the marriage proposal between He San and Qu Fu at that time.
Pei Yusheng only hated that He Si didn't die here on the spot. If this matter was brought up, Miss Qu Si would lose face and might even be rejected by the royal family. But Pei Yuanjun would have face
Pei Yuanjun is a vindictive person. If he is allowed to have this grudge, it will not be good for my future!
Two guards came over and dragged Miss He Si, who had been kicked unconscious, out like a dead dog.
"Bring this man to me." Pei Yuanjun kicked the man on the ground. When Miss He fell out just now, she bumped into this man, and now she actually moved her fingers.
"Uncle Wang, the Liu family will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly." Pei Luoan stood up and said seriously.
Pei Yuanjun glanced at him, and the coldness in his eyes turned into an unfathomable darkness: "Prince, it is better not to investigate this Liu Mansion. I am afraid that if I investigate it over and over again, I may find nothing in the end."
"Your Highness, I really didn't know such a thing would happen." Liu Jingyu stood out from the crowd, his face pale and anxious to prove his innocence.
Pei Yuanjun glanced at her and ignored her. He just smiled faintly at Pei Luoan and said, "Congratulations, Prince. You finally got what you wanted!"
After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and walked out.
Qu Moying glanced at Liu Jingyu, curled her lips slightly, turned around and left with Pei Yuanjun.
"Jingyu County Lord's banquet is really an excellent banquet." Pei Yusheng was furious. How could he have a good face at this moment? His words sounded unpleasant. "I don't know if this prince has a conflict with the Liu Mansion. There are always some inexplicable things that involve this prince."
He would feel uncomfortable if he couldn't vent his anger.
He was inexplicably implicated today, but Pei Luoan, the person who should have been implicated the most, was fine. He felt very uncomfortable and no one he saw was pleasing to his eyes.
Pei Yuanjun is no longer around, so he doesn't have to worry about anything.
“Jingyu County Lord, I think our two houses were compatible in the past, and there was never any trouble at banquets. But now… It seems that Jingyu County Lord should worship the gods and Buddhas more often, so as to avoid any trouble and conflict! Dabei Temple is good. You didn’t go there before, but you can go now. You must especially go to worship the spirit tablet of Empress Yuan. This is the dignity that a Crown Princess should have!”
