The constant stream of gossip made Shi Baoning blush, feeling ashamed and annoyed but unable to do anything.
What's even more frightening is that, driven by their words, she couldn't help but have doubts: Could Shi Qingxue really be inside, or even...
Shi Baoning shook his head violently, getting rid of those ridiculous thoughts.
Secretly clutching the handkerchief, he thought to himself: No, it won't happen. It must be these people who framed Qingxue.
Luo Wenmei suddenly came up to Shi Baoning, laughing and whispering, "There is such a wanton and shameless woman in the family. If I were you, I would have stripped myself clean. Otherwise, if this matter really spread, how could you Is it good?"
As she spoke, she glanced around as if unintentionally.
Only then did Shi Baoning notice that the people around her were far away. Many noble ladies were secretly looking at her, and when they touched her eyes, they opened their eyes, as if they would be taken aback by just one look at her. infect.
The feeling of humiliation surged into his heart, and Shi Baoning gritted his teeth so as not to show his timidity in front of everyone.
She raised her chin slightly, lowered her eyes and looked at Luo Wenmei, and said lightly: "Mei Niang said it too early. Now you want to throw dirty water on Qingxue without anyone seeing you. Could it be because you are jealous?" Qingxue?"
Luo Wenmei was poked at the central point, her face turned red, and she retorted hastily: "Of course I didn't, don't talk nonsense!"
"Whether it's nonsense or not, you have to see the truth before you can draw a conclusion." Shi Baoning said firmly, even if she was beating drums in her heart, she tried her best to save Shi Qingxue's face.
Qin Yanyan looked at Shi Baoning and said meaningfully: "Seeing is believing."
She led everyone along the path of scattered clothes and stopped in front of a house. She winked at Liang'er, who immediately stepped forward and was about to knock on the door when he suddenly heard from inside:
The sometimes rapid, sometimes high-pitched voice carried an ambiguous melody, which made the hearts of the women at the door quicken. They all looked red and lowered their heads, not daring to look.
Liang'er didn't seem to hear what the people inside were doing, so he knocked on the door and asked, "Miss Sixth, are you in there?"
"Well… "
This sound was made with someone's mouth covered. It was sweet and tempting, like some 'forced' behavior in love, which was painful but joyful.
"Miss Six, are you okay?" Liang'er called out again, but the person inside just kept calling in a low voice and didn't respond.
She looked at Qin Yanyan in embarrassment: "Empress, look at this..."
Qin Yanyan knew that something good was going on inside, but he pretended not to know and said in a panic: "I seem to hear Qingxue's muffled groan. Is she in danger inside? Let's open the door." Let’s take a look at the door!”
After saying that, I couldn't wait to open the door and go in.
"Stop!" Shi Baoning quickly stood in front of Qin Yanyan, preventing her from opening the door.
Qin Yanyan raised his eyebrows, "What does Princess Baoning mean by this?"
"No one in the room is sure it's Qingxue. I'm afraid it wouldn't be right for us to rush in without the consent of the people inside!" Shi Baoning made a final struggle, even though it might be useless.
Sure enough, Chen Xiujiao immediately came up to help: "Shi Qingxue's clothes were left at the door. Who else is inside besides her? Besides, if it's really not her inside, then we should find out clearly, in case there is anyone else around. The Prince's Mansion is not good for His Royal Highness or Concubine Qin, you cannot bear this responsibility!"
Shi Baoning was defeated by an army and was speechless.
Someone next to me spoke again: "Tsk, things are so obvious. Aunt Shi actually helped Shi Qingxue cover it up. Who can she deceive?"
"Isn't that right? It's not like a family doesn't come into the same house. Shi Qingxue can do such a bad thing. I don't know what kind of debauchery this lady of the Shi family has under her dignified appearance."
"Don't tell me yet. I heard from my brothers that some men just love women who are serious on the surface but wet in their bones."
The ladies whispered, directly from Shi Qingxue to Shi Baoning, as if they were members of the Shi family.
Shi Baoning's face turned red with embarrassment, and her hands and feet were trembling. When Qin Yanyan pushed her away, she had no strength left. She watched helplessly as the other party opened the door, taking in full view of the scene inside.
"ah!"
"ah!"
There were screams inside and outside the house at the same time. The noble ladies all maintained their identities, covering their eyes and looking out, with expressions of surprise and disbelief on their faces, almost thinking: there is more than one man.
The woman in the room seemed to have woken up at this time. She tried her best to hide under the man and let out an involuntary scream.
Seeing that the effect was achieved, Qin Yanyan pretended to be kind and half-closed the door and told Liang'er: "Take two people in and let them get dressed before meeting others. How can it be appropriate to not cover your body like this?"
It seemed that he was thinking about the people in the room, but the two tall and handsome guards followed Liang'er into the room. Wouldn't this so-called 'helping with dressing' make the woman in the room attracted more people to watch
But no one will notice this detail at this time.
Caught in bed, seeing is believing, Shi Baoning's lips trembled as he faced Qin Yanyan's question: "How else does Princess Baoning plan to defend Shi Liu Niang?"
She couldn't say a word for a long time.
Luo Wenmei interrupted suddenly and took a sip on the ground: "Coming to someone else's house as a guest and doing such a dirty thing is a disgrace to the noble daughter of our family."
"That's right! If this spreads out, what will outsiders think of us!"
Chen Xiujiao said to Qin Yanyan: "Mother, although Shi Liu Niang actually committed such a scandal in your house, she should naturally be dealt with by you."
Qin Yanyan waved his hands in a condescending manner and said humbly: "I am just a concubine. Your Highness has the final say on all matters in the palace. Besides, this matter involves a serious matter. I think it is better to tell His Highness the truth before making a decision, lest anyone say that I am seeking personal revenge. .”
"Bah! Shi Qingxue had an affair without a matchmaker and was caught and raped in bed by us. The Shi family's face has been completely humiliated by her. Who will protect her!"
The gossip became more and more excessive, almost reducing Shi Qingxue to worthlessness.
Just when Qin Yanyan felt that he had a chance to win and was about to ask Liang'er to invite Mo Junhao to make a big deal out of it, a clear female voice rang from the outside.
"I'm very curious, what on earth did I do to make so many sisters scold me so much that they even arranged for the Shi family to come together."
Everyone was startled and looked towards the source of the sound, and at the same time unconsciously moved out of the way.
"Qingxue!" Shi Baoning was almost in despair. He never expected that Shi Qingxue would appear upright in front of him, without filth, and not as unbearable as others said.
Qin Yanyan's eyes widened, as if he had seen a ghost, and blurted out: "Why are you here?"
Shi Qingxue smiled reassuringly at Shi Baoning, and her calm but powerful eyes swept over the noble ladies who had just fallen into trouble, and finally landed on Qin Yanyan, and said lightly: "Qingxue was treated by the noble concubine today. I invite you to come and celebrate your birthday, if not here, where should I be?"
Qin Yanyan hadn't come back to his senses yet, muttering to himself: "Impossible, impossible, you should obviously..."
Her voice stopped suddenly, she looked suddenly into the room, and asked: "You are outside, who is who in the room?"
Shi Qingxue shrugged indifferently and said with a smile: "You invited the guests. Who is missing here? Didn't you notice?"
Qin Yanyan was startled and had a bad premonition in her heart. She looked nervously through the crowd. The more she looked, the more frightened she became. She blurted out, "Shi Qingxue, what did you do to my sister?"
Shi Qingxue's expression remained unchanged and she didn't even answer.
A weak and aggrieved whimper sounded from the room, "Fifth sister! Why am I here?"
Liang'er happened to open the door at this time, and Liu Niang of the Qin family was exposed to everyone's eyes. Her clothes were wrinkled and there were spots on the corners of her clothes. You couldn't tell but you could guess what they were. stains, and there were dense red marks on her neck that could not be covered by clothes, indicating what she had just experienced.
"It's Qin Liu Niang!" Someone was the first to recognize the person in the room.
Qin Yanyan almost fainted when he saw this, and screamed: "Luoluo, why did you end up like this?"
Qin Luoluo was shouted at so much that tears fell down, and she hid behind Liang'er timidly, "I don't know, I don't know anything!"
"Close the door quickly! Close the door quickly!" The first thing Qin Yanyan reacted to was to close the door, trying to block the inquiring eyes from outside.
Shi Qingxue held the door shut before her, and said coldly: "Didn't Concubine Qin just say that she wanted to restore the truth of the matter? Why is it closed again now?"
Qin Yanyan stared at Shi Qingxue and asked in a sinister and hateful tone, "What do you want?"
Shi Qingxue looked back without fear and said coldly: "I don't want to do anything? But just now Concubine Qin slandered Qingxue's family without even seeing the people in the room clearly, and threatened to ask His Highness the Fourth Highness to administer justice. Now that the protagonist in the room has come out, is it not too much for Qingxue to demand that this matter be thoroughly investigated?"
Qin Yanyan's lungs were almost bursting with anger. Even if he checked the ghost, a discerning person could immediately tell that the person being slept with was Qin Luoluo. If Mo Junhao was really invited here, not to mention that Qin Luoluo would no longer have to be a human being. The Qin family and even her would be embarrassed.
Thinking of this, Qin Yanyan was completely shameless and backed away forcefully. Shi Qingxue closed the door and hummed: "This is the Fourth Prince's Mansion. I am the Fourth Prince's concubine. Who do you think you are? It's your turn." Are you talking? Get out of my way!"
"Why is this like this! You let people get out without finding out the matter clearly?"
"Isn't this clear? I think this is because Concubine Qin thought that Shi Qingxue was in the house, so she deliberately brought us to catch the rapist. Unexpectedly, the rapist was caught, but the target was a member of their Qin family. It's really funny. Got it!"
"That's what I'm saying! How could someone like Shi Liuniang, who has always been cheerful and lively and even praised the Queen Mother, do such a scandal? She was indeed wronged!"
Everyone started whispering as if it was an afterthought, and it was extremely lively.
Qin Yanyan's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, but she boasted that she had the highest status and forcibly ordered: "Shut up to me, all of you, and leave Qingyuan immediately! Liang'er, send them out!"
snort! She cleared the place completely, wiped out all traces, and threatened the ladies present, and this matter would definitely be settled!
