Chapter 4: The first confrontation with the heroine
This……
In Xue Huaiyuan's memory, Xue Youli was just a little girl who would act coquettishly and ask for monthly allowance from him in order to wear beautiful dresses and jewelry.
But now, the daughter's interrogation of the beautiful mother is more stylish than the interrogation of prisoners in prison.
If he had not seen the midwife delivering his wife's baby with his own eyes, he would have doubted whether Xue Youli was his biological daughter.
However, today, thanks to the fact that he accompanied his daughter to give Xue Qingyao the skirt, otherwise how could he have seen that the weak and helpless beauty had such a wild side?
Yan Niang is such a good actress, I'm afraid there is something fishy about Xue Qingyao's background.
Now that his daughter had put the words in his mouth, he naturally had to cooperate, "Yan Niang, actually I have long discovered that something is wrong with you, so I secretly sent people to Chunfeng Tower to investigate what happened sixteen years ago. Not only did you have an affair with many people, you also dared to deceive the officials of the court. Your crime is unforgivable! If you don't tell the truth, don't blame me for punishing you severely!"
When Xue Huaiyuan put his hands behind his back and stared at Yan Niang with a cold face, his official authority was revealed.
The beautiful lady finally realized that she was afraid. Her legs went limp and she fell to her knees. "Master, I have no other choice..."
"Dad, Auntie has no other choice!"
She was about to exaggerate and make herself look worse, but suddenly a man rushed in from outside the door, blocked her way and interrupted her, "You have ignored her for more than ten years. The people in the mansion are used to treating people differently. Therefore, she dared not speak out when she was humiliated by those beasts, for fear of bringing disaster to the reputation of the Xue family. Please don't let others mislead her and take advantage of her!"
Xue Youli couldn't help but admire Xue Qingyao. She was indeed a ruthless character who could become the empress dowager. Her scheming and wisdom were indeed extraordinary.
But she was no pushover. "Dad, facts speak louder than words. Everyone has seen what kind of woman Yan Niang is. Don't let them fool you. If the fact that she is raising a daughter for someone else gets out, it will ruin the reputation of the Xue family!"
Xue Qingyao was so shameless that he even dared to bite back, saying that he was misleading Xue Huaiyuan.
Humph, she has hit a brick wall by provoking herself.
Jiang Ruyun took a step forward and stood firmly beside her daughter. "Li'er is right."
Xue Wuyou also nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, my sister is right!"
Xue Huaiyuan was of course more willing to trust his wife and the daughter he had doted on since childhood.
He glanced at Xue Qingyao and said in a deep voice, "It is a fact that Yan Niang had an affair with someone. According to family rules, she should be beaten to death!"
Xue Qingyao failed to persuade him, and immediately became anxious, and said with red eyes, "Dad, my aunt said she was forced, why do you prefer to believe other people's nonsense instead of my aunt? Or do you mean that you have always disliked me and hated me, so you hope that I am not your daughter?"
Xue Qingyao's face inherited the beauty of Yan Niang. Her aggrieved expression with tears in her eyes was truly moving.
When Xue Youli read the novel, she admired Xue Qingyao's resourcefulness, but when she stood on the opposite side of the heroine of the novel, she deeply realized that if she could not defeat Xue Qingyao today, she would suffer endlessly in the future.
"Xue Qingyao, whose daughter you are, Yan Niang knows it very well. Let's just find He Dayong to confront your aunt face to face!"
When Yan Niang heard the three words "He Dayong", her body shrank uncontrollably.
Xue Qingyao saw her reaction and couldn't help but curse her in his heart.
This idiot is only holding her back!
Fortunately, she was prepared in advance!
Xue Qingyao took a deep breath, and when she turned to look at Xue Huaiyuan, her determined eyes showed hurt, "Since my father and sister don't believe me, I am willing to drop blood to prove my innocence!"
As she spoke, she called out to the door outside the courtyard, "Cui Ru, bring the bowl over here!"
Yan Niang didn't know what Xue Qingyao was up to, but Cuiru was the maid she brought back from Chunfeng Tower, and Xue Qingyao was raised by Cuiru. The two of them were so calm and unhurried, they must have thought of a plan to conceal the truth.
Cuiru had been waiting outside the door for a long time. When she heard the noise, she immediately walked in with a tray.
When Cui Ru stopped in front of Xue Qingyao, Xue Qingyao acted decisively, pulled out the hairpin on her head, pierced her fingertip, and dripped a drop of blood into the bowl of water.
Then, she picked up the bowl and walked to Xue Huaiyuan, "Dad, it is said that those who share the same blood are relatives. Your daughter needs a drop of your blood."
Xue Huaiyuan pricked his finger without saying a word and squeezed his blood into the bowl.
Seeing this, Jiang Ruyun and Xue Wuyou hurried forward to check the situation.
I saw the two drops of blood in the bowl slowly blending together.
Xue Qingyao looked at this scene, a hint of pride appearing on the corner of his lips.
She had played this trick of identifying kinship by dropping blood before in the palace in her previous life. Even the emperor and the concubines believed in her son's identity. This trick was more than enough to fool the idiots from the Xue family.
Xue Youli caught the confident look in Xue Qingyao's eyes and asked the Book of Secrets: [Is there something wrong with this bowl of water? ]
[Host, your query times for today have been used up. If you have any questions, please check again tomorrow. ]
After displaying this sentence, the Book of Secrets went offline.
Xue Youli: “!!!” As expected, at the critical moment, no one can be relied on and you can only rely on yourself.
There is no scientific basis for the idea of identifying kinship through blood. If two drops of blood can mix, it means either they have the same blood type or there is something wrong with the water.
She did not hesitate either. She reached out her hand, dipped it in the water in the bowl, and brought it to her mouth to taste it.
really!
"Dad, Mom, this bowl of water tastes sour, it's obviously added with alum. I've read in medical books before that adding alum to water can help mix blood even if the child is not your own!"
Xue Youli is studying medicine. It's impossible for Xue Qingyao to get away with it in front of her!
Xue Wuyou also followed Xue Youli's example and tasted the water in the bowl. "Sister is right! This bowl of water really tastes wrong!"
Xue Youli took advantage of everyone's distraction, grabbed Cuiru's hand, cut it with a hairpin, and dripped her blood into the bowl.
"Look everyone, Cui Ru's blood has also mixed with Dad's blood. Could it be that Cui Ru, this thirty-something old woman, is also my father's daughter?"
Xue Wuyou jumped up immediately, "You are so good, Xue Qingyao, you actually dared to play tricks on us! Dad, she did something in the water, which shows that she is guilty of being a thief. It is better to kill her and Yan Niang together! Come on, tie them all up!"
Xue Qingyao looked at the servant walking towards him, his face turned pale, and he staggered back.
No! She can't die!
She was unwilling to die here without taking revenge for her previous life!
Glancing at her, she suddenly thought of something, raised her hand and pointed at Xue Youli, shouting, "She is not Xue Youli! The real Xue Youli was already dead when she hanged herself. She is a wandering ghost who has taken over Xue Youli's body. Don't be fooled by her!"
right!
Xue Youli doesn’t have such ability at all, so the Xue Youli in front of him must be a fake.
If I can be reborn, then it is reasonable for someone else to be reborn through someone else's body, right?
Even if Xue Youli is real, she will make her fake!
Everyone present was stunned when they heard this.
Recalling the series of changes that happened to Xue Youli after she was rescued from hanging, the look in his eyes when he looked at Xue Youli gradually became more uncertain.
Xue Qingyao seized the opportunity and continued to expose Xue Youli's past. "Dad, Li'er is innocent. She used to not even have the heart to step on an ant to death! But this man just wanted to use severe torture on my aunt. When has the real Li'er ever been exposed to such terrible punishments? She must be fake!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the backyard suddenly became quiet.
Xue Qingyao's words were well-reasoned and convincing. Xue Huaiyuan and the other two thought about Xue Youli's abnormal behavior after she hanged herself, and couldn't help but look at Xue Youli, as if they were doubting her identity, but also seemed to be waiting for her explanation.
