I've known for a long time that Wei An is not a good person.
This is the kind of person who will not let go once he gets hold of someone's weakness and would rather torture that person to death.
At this moment, all the favors Wei An had shown in the past, such as saving Princess Xianrong, were completely unreliable and useless. Princess Chang'an looked at Wei An coldly.
After a long while, he finally laughed and sighed softly, "So the ultimate goal is here."
She said, and then Yang Mei looked at King Zheng and Wei An: "No wonder Shou Ning was so cold to Ah Sheng before going to the theater. It turns out that he has disliked her for a long time?"
She said this deliberately to point the finger at Wei An, saying that Wei An was deliberately seeking revenge on Princess Xianrong and that was why he designed all this.
No one spoke in the room for a moment.
Wei An sneered and quickly retorted, "I wonder if Your Highness the Princess trusts her daughter too much, or is too prejudiced against others. In your eyes, my father is the one who taught me to poison people who came to help me out of friendship, and then put the blame on others?"
This accusation is a bit harsh.
Princess Linjiang realized that something was wrong and having seen how powerful Wei An was, she wanted to act as a peacemaker.
But it was too late.
Wei An sneered and raised his voice, saying in a resounding voice: "I dare not take this charge, and my father dares not take it either! There is nothing wrong with our brains, why would we do such a vicious thing during such a big happy event in our family?!"
She glanced at Madam Mei who was crying non-stop, and Mother Lai who was lying on the ground trembling, then looked at Princess Chang'an and said coldly, "You put my father in an unkind and unjust position, and also put me in an unkind, unjust, unfilial and unfaithful position. I am sorry that I dare not accept this compliment!"
Princess Chang'an finally witnessed Wei An's powerful eloquence.
No wonder Li Gui Niang was driven almost crazy by her.
Being left speechless by a junior in front of everyone is not a pleasant feeling, especially when the humiliation is so great.
But she is not Li Gui Niang after all.
So she didn't show any emotion at all, just stared at Wei An coldly and asked softly: "So, what do you want?"
He looked somewhat helpless and annoyed with the child's unreasonable behavior.
She repeated it, and then said, "You trapped so many people here, not letting your father go out to toast and entertain guests, and leaving the bride alone in the empty room. You don't want this wedding to go wrong, so what?"
The most powerful person is the one who can, when things are basically clear, still make a fuss out of nothing and change the outline of the whole thing, confusing right and wrong.
There is no doubt that Princess Chang'an is such a person.
The old princess frowned and glanced at Princess Chang'an.
She still remembered that Princess Chang'an and Princess Changle had a very good relationship. Among the three princesses, Changle was quiet and taciturn, while Changying was too sharp. Only she was neither humble nor arrogant, and was always the most friendly, which made people respect and like her.
When Wei An was still young, Princess Chang'an once held her in her arms and praised her during a Buddhist ceremony.
Who could have expected that this woman who always looked kind and benevolent actually had such a cunning and treacherous side, and that she could change the direction of things with just a few words.
"Why does Princess Chang'an always stare at me and ask what I want?" Wei An thought it was funny, so he laughed out loud. He looked at Princess Chang'an calmly and indifferently as she frowned in confusion. "I've already said it before, a murder almost happened in my family. I don't want to be blamed for something unknown, nor do I want my father to be laughed at by the world. I also want to give Mei Ying justice. I just want to find out the murderer."
Wei An did not hide his sarcasm and ridicule, looked at her and asked: "Don't you understand? Or do you think that this matter involves your daughter, so you are deliberately confusing people here?"
Everyone couldn't help but gasp.
Wei An is really bold!
In front of so many people, she really didn't give Princess Chang'an any face.
Princess Xianrong could no longer bear it. She stood behind Princess Chang'an and angrily rebuked Wei An: "How dare you!"
What Wei An was waiting for was for her to stand up and calmly fight back: "If we talk about outrageous behavior, who is more outrageous? Is it more outrageous to take the life of the official's daughter on the wedding day of the palace, or is it more outrageous for me to offend Her Royal Highness the Princess in order to find the murderer?"
She pointed at Lai's mother and looked at her, and asked calmly: "If you think I'm wrong, then what is she?"
Xianrong County Lady sneered: "How funny, who is she? She is just a servant, I don't know her at all, so if she says it's me, then it's me?!"
"I was thinking, maybe she was instructed by you to frame me..." Xianrong County Lady gave her a meaningful look, then looked at Lai Mama who was kneeling on the ground: "After all, this is not impossible. After all, you are more familiar with the Mei family, and this is your own territory. You were the first to see Mei Ying, and you were the one who said that the secret camp was poisoned!"
The Xianrong County Lady was acting uncharacteristically aggressive: "All this is based on what you said alone. Are you from the Ministry of Justice or the Imperial Guard? You don't need anything else to convict people, just based on your empty words?!"
She spoke so passionately that the atmosphere in the room became a little tense.
All the ladies who were given imperial titles felt unlucky.
Somehow, he was dragged into the battle between the prince and the princess's daughter.
These two little girls are each more powerful than the other, neither of them is easy to deal with. It's really frustrating.
It was Old Madam Xia who coughed.
She is the wife of the Prime Minister, a truly powerful lady. Although she is not as noble as her relatives in the royal family, she has a greater say than them.
As soon as she spoke, the room fell silent.
Madam Xia coughed and then looked at Prince Zheng: "Your Highness brought us here as well. Do you want us to be witnesses? After all, we don't know what the whole thing is like..."
The implication is that this is too tiring.
But Old Lady Xia said, "But there is one thing that the prince and princess said that really struck a chord with me. Yingying is just a child, only five years old. She is so cruel and insane that she instructs her servants to feed her shrimps and crabs that cannot be eaten. This is indeed betrayal and murder. It is extremely vicious and must be investigated."
Old Madam Xia spoke with great force. She glanced at everyone and said softly, "Otherwise, who knows if someone will follow suit and instigate the servants of other families to take advantage of opportunities and harm their masters when they are dissatisfied with them? Who doesn't have a child? Moreover, this method is really too despicable, and it happened on the day of the prince's wedding. It is really unforgivable."
