Because the world was at peace, the divine maiden Jiang Qingwan was thrown down to the mortal realm by the Heavenly Dao to cultivate anew.
What's so difficult about that? With her extraor...
Yu Sanniang's eyes lit up instantly. In her impression, Madam Ruan was a woman with no opinions of her own and who put her husband first.
She would definitely agree with Ruan Han.
"Yes, Madam Ruan, you see, this has caused misunderstandings among everyone. You should quickly explain it, otherwise, I'm afraid that Mr. Ruan's position as prefect will be lost."
Ruan Han also kept winking at his wife.
Seeing this, Madam Ruan sneered, "I don't understand what you two are talking about. I had an appointment with the wife of Li Xianwei today. It was just a coincidence that you two met. How can you say that I have an appointment with the wife of the Earl of Ning'an?"
"Although Lady Ning An is my daughter's adopted daughter, she has never looked down on me."
Mrs. Ruan's words were like pouring more fuel on the fire.
"Do you know what you are saying?" Ruan Han was furious. "If you want to go crazy, go home and vent. Do you know that doing so will ruin me?"
Thinking about his wife who had been acting abnormal recently and going crazy from time to time, he hated himself for not locking her up.
"Ruined you?" Madam Ruan's eyes were filled with resentment. "It was clearly you two who were careless. You ruined yourselves."
"If you were innocent, would anyone bump into you? Now everyone has seen it, and you still want me to help you hide it, Ruan Han, do you think I'm a fool?"
"You..." Ruan Han's face darkened, and he stepped forward and slapped her, yelling angrily.
"You are not a fool, I think you are crazy."
"I'm crazy?" Madam Ruan laughed heartily. "Alright, then I'll act crazy and show you how I am. I'm going to sue you and expose your ugly deeds to the world."
After saying that, he ran out without giving the two a chance to react.
"What is she going to do?"
Yu Sanniang didn't know what scandal Mrs. Ruan was talking about. The only secret between her and Ruan Han was Ruan Hezhu.
She looked at Ruan Han, wanting to ask him if he had leaked the secret to Mrs. Ruan.
But now there were people all around, and she couldn't ask, so she could only shout anxiously, "Go after her and explain it to her."
"Yes, yes."
Ruan Han ran out in a hurry. He knew that he couldn't let his wife make a big deal out of this matter, otherwise he wouldn't be able to explain himself even if he had a hundred mouths.
"Everyone, everything that happened today was a misunderstanding. Lord Ruan and I are innocent."
Yu Sanniang controlled the people in the restaurant and prevented them from spreading the news.
As long as the mouths of those present are covered, everything can still be salvaged.
She calmed down and said to everyone, "Just now, there were not only Master Ruan and I in the room, but also our maid. If we had something to hide, how could we have allowed the maid to be there?"
"Yes, I can prove that there is nothing wrong between my wife and Lord Ruan. It was just a scheme by a villain."
The maid spoke righteously and then went to find the one who spoke first.
"Where is the man who just slandered my wife? Why did he run away? I'm afraid he must be feeling guilty."
"You're lying with your eyes open. I want to ask her who ordered her to do so."
At this time, everyone also discovered that the woman who had initially claimed that Yu Sanniang and Lord Ruan were hugging each other had disappeared. Could it be that she was really lying to them?
Seeing that everyone believed her to some extent, Yu Sanniang immediately wiped her tears with a handkerchief and said.
"Everyone, you know that rumors can kill people. These unfounded words are trying to kill me."
Although Yu Sanniang is already middle-aged, she is still pitiful. With good maintenance, her skin is still white and tender. Now her face is tearful, which makes people feel pity for her.
Especially the men present, their hearts unconsciously leaned towards her side.
"Don't worry, Madam. We are not the kind of people who are easily deceived. We won't believe what others say."
"Yes, that woman must have deliberately slandered you because she saw that Madam Bo was beautiful."
"Don't worry, ma'am, we won't say anything nonsense."
Once someone started it, the others just felt it was strange but didn't know what to say since they didn't see it with their own eyes.
Yu Sanniang breathed a sigh of relief and continued to press on. "Thank you all for your discernment. I'm responsible for causing you all trouble today. I'll pay for your meal at the restaurant today, and I'll have the waiter bring a jar of good wine to each table."
The one who takes the favor is soft-hearted, and the one who eats the favor is grateful. Yu Sanniang is determined to shut everyone up completely.
However, since there were benefits to be gained and it was none of their business, they immediately stated that they would not say anything nonsense.
Yu Sanniang had just finished dealing with the situation and had not yet had time to leave the restaurant.
Then two officials from the Dali Temple walked in.
Yu Sanniang's heart tightened and she quickly looked around to see if Ning Yuan was there. If he heard any rumors, it would be troublesome.
"Madam." The two officers walked up to her and bowed.
She forced a smile, "Yuan'er didn't come, did he?"
The two men shook their heads and said, "Shaoqing is in the Dali Temple and didn't come."
"That's good. You two are here for dinner, right? You've worked hard following Yuan'er. Let's eat something good today. I'll treat you."
Yu Sanniang acted like an elder and spoke kindly.
The two men did not answer, but looked at each other and began to push each other to speak.
Yu Sanniang also noticed that something was wrong with them and asked tentatively, "What do you want to tell me?"
"Madam, we are not here to eat." One of them stood up. "We are here on the orders of the Shaoqing to take you to the Dali Temple for questioning."
"Interrogation?" Yu Sanniang felt that she had misheard, because the word "interrogation" was used to address the criminal.
"That's right. Madam Ruan just now called the Dali Temple to sue you, Madam Ruan, for having an affair with her and for harming her child."
"What?"
Yu Sanniang couldn't catch her breath and fainted.
Her maid quickly supported her and pinched her philtrum to wake her up.
After confirming that it was not an illusion, Yu Sanniang felt as if the sky was falling.
Originally, she had calmed down the people in the restaurant, and Ruan Han had stopped Mrs. Ruan, so everything could be resolved.
This Ruan Han couldn't even stop his own wife.
Now that the matter has reached the Dali Temple, it won't be so easy to resolve.
When the people in the restaurant heard that Mrs. Ruan had reported the case to the Dali Temple, they suddenly felt that Mrs. Ning'an was not wronged.
Without any evidence, who would dare to go to the Dali Temple to file a complaint?
Everyone looked at each other, and immediately stood up and ran towards the Dali Temple.
No one wants to miss such a big event.
Yu Sanniang came to the Dali Temple with a dizzy head, and stood in the courtroom, looking at Ning Yuan who was sitting beside her.
Only then did I realize that I was not dreaming.
"Yuan'er, mother was framed. There is nothing wrong between me and Lord Ruan."
Ning Yuan said with a cold face, "Madam, please call me Shaoqing. This is the Dali Temple. You are the prisoner and I am the official."
