Mo Yang took the order and left. He didn't care at all about Bai Xiyue's words.
At this moment, Mu Lianrong's eyes were full of pain, and the last hope in her heart was shattered. Even Mu Xiong's breath was a bit dull.
Mu Qingge looked at Bai Xiyue and asked in a gentle tone: "Sister Xiyue, can you tell me why you went to grandpa's study? Why did the study catch on fire for no reason as soon as you left? And why were you the first to do so? I found these letters, as if I was very familiar with them. Just a glance, I knew that these letters were not good for Mu Mansion, and I wanted to hide them in front of everyone."
A series of questions left Bai Xiyue unable to answer.
And everyone who had been watching, after Mu Qingge's words, instantly figured out all their doubts, and their eyes fell on Bai Xiyue.
"It seems that Miss Bai is the most suspicious of this false accusation against my husband." Qin Jinhao said coldly. It seemed that Bai Xiyue was convicted in one sentence.
Bai Xiyue raised her eyes to look at him in disbelief, but she saw no emotion at all under the cold face that she was haunted by.
Unintentional, heartless...
These four words suddenly appeared in Bai Xiyue's mind, causing her heart to ache.
"Indeed." Mu Qingge nodded, showing a heartbroken expression.
It seemed that being betrayed by someone she trusted in her family hurt her emotions.
She may be faking her emotions, but Mu Xiong and Mu Lianrong's feelings for Bai Xiyue are real. At this moment, when Mu Qingge directed all doubts to Bai Xiyue, the hurt and disappointment in their eyes were not fake.
"Come here! Capture this criminal and put him in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. I will wait until I report everything today to my father and queen before I make a decision." Qin Jinhao's cold order broke Bai Xiyue's heart.
"No! It's not me! Why would I do this? The Mu family has treated me with so much kindness, how could I repay kindness with hatred?" Bai Xiyue struggled hard and shouted to Mu Xiong and Mu Lianrong: "Grandpa Mu, Aunt Rong, Do you also think it was Xiyue?"
Mu Lianrong turned his head away and did not look at her.
Mu Xiong, on the other hand, pursed his lips tightly and closed his eyes.
Seeing the two Mu family members like this, Bai Xiyue felt even more hatred in her heart. She looked at Qin Jinhao in despair and shouted: "Your Highness, Prince Rui, I was wronged! Please clean up the injustice of the women of the country!"
"Whether you are unjustly accused or not will be investigated clearly later. If you are really innocent, you don't have to be so excited. You can feel free to leave with my guards." Qin Jinhao said coldly.
The meaning of the words was comforting, preventing her from involving him in public with the intention of death.
Sure enough, when Bai Xiyue heard this, hope ignited in her heart again. The mood of resistance has also been reduced a lot.
However, Mu Qingge didn't want to make it so easy for her.
She raised her head and sighed, with grief in her eyes, and said to Bai Xiyue: "Sister Xiyue, why are you still so unrepentant at this moment? Have the Mu family treated you badly over the years? You I have said it myself, Mu Mansion is as kind as a mountain to you. But what have you done? Luzhi, tell me."
Bai Xiyue suddenly turned her eyes and looked at the maid who had been silent today, her eyes filled with disbelief.
The named Luzhi lowered his head and walked out, kneeling on his knees. He didn't dare to look at Bai Xiyue, but said in a low voice: "Girl, you have been in Mu Mansion for so many years. Everyone in Mu Mansion has always treated you sincerely. .My husband and the eldest lady regard you as their own, and the young master regards you as his own sister. I really can’t stand it anymore. I can’t bear to see you. I always feel that it was the Mu family who ruined your family and made you lose what you deserve. Everything. Let you, who is supposed to be the proud daughter of heaven, become an orphan who depends on others. It's okay for you to hide your cultivation, but now you want to frame the Mu family, regardless of the life and death of the Mu family. This servant really can't pass the test of conscience, Please forgive me, slave!" After saying that, she kowtowed to Bai Xiyue desperately, and within two seconds, blood started to flow from her forehead.
