Chapter 175 Body Search
But the smile on her face disappeared almost completely after she saw Shen Wan.
Xie Zhihuan was the daughter of Concubine Wen. Not only was she treated like a star in the mansion, but no one dared to openly oppose her. She had picked on Shen Wan several times, but she had fought back mercilessly, making her lose face. She had always wanted to find an opportunity to vent her anger.
But apart from paying her respects, Chen Wan hardly left Zhaolanxuan these days, so she had no idea where to find trouble with Chen Wan.
I didn't expect her to come to the garden today. I must teach her a lesson today.
Xie Zhihuan said to the fourth girl, Xie Zhiyao, "Go and call her over."
Xie Zhiyao is the daughter of the fourth wife.
The fourth wife was born out of wedlock and had no status in the mansion, so she was always bullied.
Xie Zhiyao was reluctant, "Sister-in-law is enjoying the flowers..."
Xie Zhihuan was immediately unhappy, "How dare you disobey me?"
Xie Zhiyao's maid gently tugged at her sleeves. Xie Zhiyao had no choice but to turn around and walk towards Shen Wan.
Shen Wan knew that Xie Zhihuan and the others were in the garden, but the garden was so big that no one would get in the way of anyone else. As a result, Xie Zhiyao came over and bowed to her, "Sister-in-law, come play with us."
Shen Wan smiled faintly, “No need.”
Xie Zhiyao didn't know how to persuade Shen Wan, and Xie Zhirou came over and said, "Big sister sometimes says things that are not pleasant to the ear. Grandmother has already reprimanded her. We are all in the garden, but we are separated and not close at all. This is not conducive to harmony in the mansion. If Grandmother hears about it, she will definitely be unhappy."
"Sister-in-law, you can't let us get scolded by grandma..."
Without saying anything, she took Shen Wan's hand and walked towards Xie Zhihuan.
For the sake of so-called false harmony, she no longer even has the freedom to stroll in the garden?
Xie Zhihuan was sitting on the swing, looking a little unhappy that Xie Zhirou had pulled Chen Wan over.
Xie Zhirou said to Xie Zhihuan, "Didn't Big Sister promise Grandmother that she would get along well with Big Sister-in-law?"
Xie Zhihuan asked, "If she doesn't want to come here, why are you dragging her here?"
Xie Zhirou smiled and said, "I said I could call my sister-in-law over. You lost the bet with me, so you should accept the loss. Now give the swing to my sister-in-law."
Xie Zhihuan pretended not to hear.
Xie Zhirou was not polite, she stretched out her hand to pull Xie Zhihuan up, looked at Shen Wan and said, "Sister-in-law, sit down."
Shen Wan said, “You guys can play by yourselves.”
Xie Zhirou almost pushed Shen Wan onto the swing, “Sister-in-law, just sit tight. Big sister lost to me, let her push the swing for you.”
Xie Zhihuan turned around and was about to leave angrily.
Xie Zhirou asked, "Big sister, you can't afford to lose, right?"
Xie Zhihuan couldn't stand the provocation, "Who can't afford to lose?!"
She walked behind Shen Wan, stretched out her hand and pushed forward.
Chen Wan didn't know what they were up to.
Xie Zhirou is the daughter of the Second Madam, who is also a difficult person to deal with. Would her daughter be kind enough to help her suppress Xie Zhihuan?
It was just a joint show for her.
Xie Zhihuan pushed Chen Wan hard, even harder than Shanhu Yinchuan pushed her.
Coral was a little worried.
It's swinging too high. If you don't hold on tightly, you'll be swung away.
If you fall, it will take at least ten days or half a month to recover.
Xie Zhiyao said fearfully, "Big sister, push it slowly, it's too high."
Xie Zhihuan said, "I don't need to push hard. Needless to say, I'm unwilling to lose!"
Shen Wan actually enjoyed the high swing, but her eyelids began to twitch.
But it was the left eye that twitched.
It is said that if the left eye twitches, it will bring good fortune, while if the right eye twitches, it will
Could she possibly get rich by swinging on a swing?
"Okay, let me down."
But no one listened to her.
Xie Zhihuan pushed even harder. As a spoiled lady, her arms started to ache after just a few pushes, but she gritted her teeth and persevered. She looked at the swing seat, which was only a little bit left.
Try harder!
Xie Zhihuan pushed Chen Wan's back hard. Chen Wan really suspected that she wanted to push her off the swing. It was better not to sit on this swing with bad intentions.
Her feet were on the ground, but just as they touched the ground, one side of the swing suddenly broke, and she lost her balance and flew forward and fell to the ground.
Even though Chen Wan held on to the swing rope tightly, she still couldn't keep her balance and twisted her foot. Just when she was about to fall to the ground, Xie Zhiyao came over and supported her in time, so Chen Wan did not fall to the ground in embarrassment.
But Xie Zhiyao was in a miserable state. The swing hit her knee and the pain made her cry.
Shanhu was not scared silly just now. She hurried over to help Chen Wan, "Is the Crown Princess okay?"
How can I be okay? I sprained my ankle.
Only after pretending to sprain my ankle so many times did I realize how painful it is to really sprain your ankle.
Xie Zhiyao covered her knees, and Shen Wan asked worriedly, "Are you okay?"
Xie Zhiyao cried in pain, "I accidentally hit my knee..."
Xie Zhihuan was so angry that she wanted to strangle Xie Zhiyao to death.
Ask her to mind her own business and help others!
Shen Wan looked up at her. Xie Zhihuan suppressed her anger and said innocently, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry. I didn't know the swing would break..."
Chen Wan looked at the swing seat on the ground. The broken part of the rope was half neat and half rough.
It was clearly cut in half!
Shen Wan angrily said, "What kind of deep hatred do I have with the young lady that she wants to kill me?!"
Xie Zhihuan said unhappily, "I was kind enough to push you, sister-in-law, but you made such malicious assumptions about me!"
Kindness again!
She couldn't help but feel nauseous when she heard these two words now.
Shen Wan said, "It's obvious that the swing rope has been cut by someone. Do you dare to let me search you?"
Xie Zhihuan's face froze. "I'm the eldest daughter of the Jingbei Palace after all. How can you search me just like that?"
"Don't you dare?" Shen Wan provoked.
She hadn't been to the garden for a few days, and she came today on a whim. When she came, they were swinging on the swings. It seems they hadn't set a trap for her long ago, but only came up with the idea after seeing her.
The swing rope was strong and could not be cut by the dagger. The dagger must have still been on them for such a short time.
The more Xie Zhihuan was afraid to let Shen Wan search her body, the more determined Shen Wan became.
Xie Zhihuan gritted her teeth and said, "If I say no, then no!"
Shen Wan said, "I must search this body today!"
The two looked into each other's eyes, fire crackling in them.
One insisted on being searched, and the other refused to allow it.
There were many people watching the fun in the garden, which inevitably alarmed the princess and Concubine Wen.
The two arrived one after the other, and Concubine Wen asked, "What's going on?"
Xie Zhihuan complained aggrievedly, "I pushed my sister-in-law on the swing out of kindness, and the swing broke. My sister-in-law thought I cut the swing and deliberately hurt her."
Concubine Wen rushed to Chen Wan, "When has anything like this ever happened in the Jingbei Palace? How dare the Crown Prince's Concubine suspect someone without any evidence?!"
Shen Wan said, "The evidence is on her. We can find it by searching her."
"A man of integrity has nothing to fear. Young lady, you haven't done anything wrong, so why are you afraid of a body search?"
Concubine Wen was furious. "Can this body be searched casually? Is your princess just going to let the Crown Prince's wife plot against Huan'er like this?!"
The princess frowned and looked at Chen Wan.
Shen Wan said, “Please search my body, mother, and give me justice!”
Concubine Wen said coldly, "You're going to search, but you haven't found anything yet?"
Shen Wan said, "I'll let you do whatever you want!"
"good!"
"I told you to search!"
Xie Zhihuan stepped forward.
The princess glanced at Mother Zhao, and Mother Zhao went over to search.
Not only Xie Zhihuan, but the maids were also searched.
Nothing was found.
Xie Zhihuan said, "Princess, please punish my sister-in-law severely!"
Shen Wan asked, "Why are you so anxious, young lady?"
Xie Zhihuan said angrily, "You've already searched, what else do you want?!"
Shen Wan said, “The second lady hasn’t searched yet.”
Xie Zhirou suddenly panicked, "Why are you searching me again?"
Shen Wan said, "You pulled me here, so you're also responsible. If the thing that cut the swing rope isn't on her, there's no guarantee it's not on you. I'm searching for one person, and I'm searching for both!"
Xie Zhihuan said, "Sister-in-law, don't go too far! The Duke Dingguo's Mansion is in a mess, are you trying to make our Prince Jingbei's Mansion a mess too?!"
Shen Wan laughed, "I'm going to search the second girl's body, why are you so angry?"
"The eldest girl dared to be searched, so why doesn't the second girl dare?"
Xie Zhihuan's palms were sweating from anxiety.
The princess looked at him with a cold gaze, "Search for me!"
