Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year

After saying that, Xie Yuanjiu turned around and asked the eunuch to bring up the maid she had brought.

The little maid faced the emperor and the prince for the first time, and she knelt on the ground and trembled.

"Slave...Slave was one of the maids who served the second lady."

Second Master Xie recognized him: "Are you Hong He?"

He frowned in growing confusion.

When sending Xie Yuanjiu away, he clearly transferred Honghe and most of the maids and servants from the second courtyard to the side courtyard to take care of Xie Yuanjiu.

Hong He didn't dare to raise his head to look at him, and only said with a trembling voice: "I want to admit that before the second lady was imprisoned, the second master gave me a drug that can cause people to go crazy, and asked me to take a little bit of it every day. Sprinkle it in the food the second lady drinks.”

Mr. Xie's expression changed and he angrily shouted: "Lie!"

The emperor narrowed his eyes.

Seeing this, Xie Suzhi cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, this maid is full of nonsense, and she even wants to frame her for trouble."

Xie Yuanjiu lowered his head with a miserable look on his face: "A few days ago, my mother died suddenly and unexplainedly in prison. Hong He secretly paid homage to her in the house. I caught her. After being tortured, Hong He told the truth. .”

Fang Qingdai couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, Second Master Xie is not such a person."

The emperor raised his hand and stopped everyone's words.

He looked dimly at Hong He who was kneeling on the ground.

"Do you know that if I find out that you lied, not only will you not survive, but your nine tribes will also be implicated?"

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, there was a clear sound of Shen Ningning cracking open the melon seeds.

"Crack--" The fragrant melon seeds fell into the mouth.

Hong He was trembling all over, and kept glancing at Xie Yuanjiu from the corner of his eye.

Shen Ningning blinked her big eyes: "But during the time when Hong He was serving the Second Madam, Aunt Qingdai had not returned to Beijing. What reason did the Second Uncle have to harm her?"

Xie Yuanjiu was startled, and a flash of panic flashed in his eyes.

Her voice was filled with resentment: "But at that time, the news of General Liang's death had already spread back to the capital. My father had probably already planned to take this opportunity to get rid of my mother as a burden."

"Wish Jiu!" Second Master Xie angrily scolded, his eyes bloodshot and red: "I have never treated you badly, why do you do this to me?"

Mrs. Xie designed to sleep with him. After she had Xie's wish, Mrs. Xie, who was still alive at the time, forced Mr. Xie to take responsibility and married Mrs. Xie back.

Therefore, although he did not want to see Mrs. Xie and did not kiss Xie Yuanjiu, he had never deprived the mother and daughter.

He did not miss the money his father should pay. He even entrusted his eldest brother Xie Suzhi to invite famous masters to give lectures to Xie Yuanjiu and train her in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Let her do whatever she likes.

Why did she issue an imperial edict and sue him to the emperor today?

The emperor's voice was faint: "Besides this Honghe witness, what other evidence do you have?"

Xie Yuanjiu raised her head, her eyes filled with tears of resentment: "And there is the minister herself."

"Some time ago, my daughter was infected with the plague. Princess Funing hated her, so she refused to give her life-saving medicine. My daughter knelt at the door of Xie's Mansion, begging her father to be merciful. However, my father avoided seeing her. If it hadn't been for my daughter Fu's fate Da, I’m afraid he’s dead a long time ago.”

At this point, she cried bitterly and looked at Mr. Xie: "How did you ever regard me as your daughter? In your eyes, my mother and I are both the culprits who ruined your life, right? Now that she is dead, are you satisfied? Got it!"

Mr. Xie looked at Xie Yuanjiu's accusation in astonishment, as if he had never known her before. His heart was so clogged that it hurt. Only now did he see clearly that Xie Yuanjiu had probably hated him for a long time.

Xie Suzhi on the side shook his head and sighed calmly.

He had known for a long time that Xie Yuanjiu's temperament had gone awry. During the years she went to Changzhou, she not only failed to correct her bad habits, but also worsened them.

The emperor also heard that Xie Yuanjiu almost died from the plague, but at that time he thought it was a family matter in the Xie family, so he did not intervene.

But now it seems that it was cruel for the father to refuse to give his daughter life-saving medicine.

The emperor looked at Mr. Xie with a somewhat cold look.

Xie Yuanjiu seized the opportunity and said: "Not only that, I also discovered that Xu..."

"Uncle Emperor, I have doubts!" ​​Shen Ningning interrupted her bluntly.

The emperor looked at Shen Ningning and his expression became gentler: "Ningning, please leave your questions until uncle has finished interrogating them, okay?"

Shen Ningning shook her head.

"This doubt is very important. Xie Yuanjiu keeps saying that my second uncle poisoned the second lady. However, I just sent people to the prison yesterday to deliver food to the second lady. She is not dead, so why did she poison her?"

Xie Yuanjiu was shocked and blurted out: "What? Not dead?!"

The emperor was keenly aware that there was something wrong with her tone, and the way everyone looked at her also revealed a deep and serious look at her.

Xie Yuanjiu immediately changed her mind and cried: "Your Highness, no matter what grievances we had in the past, my mother has passed away now. The deceased is the most important. Do you still want to spread rumors that she has come back from the dead?"

Shen Ningning pouted: "I didn't lie to you, she is really not dead."

Mo Lingwei nodded at this time and ordered outside the palace: "Bring the people up."

Everyone turned around and saw two of the prince's personal guards carrying a woman with messy hair into the palace.

She was lying in the palace in a state of utter disarray. The emperor frowned and looked at her for a long time: "Is she the Second Madam Xie?"

The figure on the ground moved and raised its head. Xie Yuanjiu, who was closest to her, was immediately frightened to death.

It's really her mother! ! She's not dead! !

Mrs. Xie Er stared at Xie Yuanjiu with her vicious eyes through her messy hair.

"You're surprised that I'm not dead, aren't you?"

Xie Yuanjiu was trembling all over: "You, how could you..."

Shen Ningning opened her mouth to clear up her doubts.

"Before, on behalf of my second uncle, I went to visit Mrs. Xie. Unexpectedly, I discovered that the food Xie Yuanjiu sent to Mrs. Xie was poisonous. The mice would not die immediately after eating it, but would go crazy. So I asked the miracle doctor Grandpa to check it out. check."

"It turns out that the food that Xie Yuanjiu gave Mrs. Xie to eat was the real chronic poison that causes people to go crazy. A little at a time, if you take too much, you will die suddenly, and Gu Zuo can't find out the reason."

Mrs. Xie cried and kowtowed to the emperor: "Your Majesty, it is clear that every word of Princess Funing is true. Xie Yuanjiu's actions are damning. In order to frame her father, she wants to poison the minister's wife!"

Xie Yuanjiu still couldn't come to her senses. She clearly saw Mrs. Xie covered with white cloth with her own eyes. The jailer also said...

wrong!

She suddenly reacted and looked at Shen Ningning sharply.

The little guy sits high on the prince's chair, like a bright moon.

It was Shen Ningning who planned to harm her!

Let her mistakenly think that her plan is successful, so she attacks Second Master Xie.

As everyone knows, Mrs. Xie is just faking her death!

It’s over…

Xie Yuanjiu looked pale.

The emperor's voice was cold and full of murderous intent: "Xie Yuanjiu, what else do you have to argue with?" (End of Chapter)
