Xiahou Chongyuan gave Song Qingxue a chance to prove her innocence and did not restrict her actions.
There were only three days, and Song Qingxue dared not delay even a minute.
And since she was certain that Su Ruqian wanted to frame her, of course she had to go to Su Ruqian first.
Go early, you might find something.
It was still early, so Song Qingxue decided to go find Su Ruqian first.
After making the decision, Song Qingxue took Liu Yue and Liu Huan to Su Ruqian's yard.
I have to say that Xiahou Chongyuan treated Su Ruqian very well.
At least on the surface, she didn't lose face or get bullied.
She lived in the largest courtyard in the rear mansion except for the main courtyard. Even though she had never been favored by the emperor, no one dared to deduct her food, clothing and salary. Even now that she was under house arrest, her three meals a day were arranged properly, and even the snacks and tea for afternoon snacks were not missed.
Yes, when Song Qingxue arrived, Su Ruqian was lying on the chaise longue, with a maid massaging her shoulders and another massaging her legs. On a small table next to her were two plates of exquisite snacks and a pot of scented tea.
"The concubine really knows how to enjoy herself." Song Qingxue said this indifferently as she entered the courtyard.
Su Ruqian opened her eyes and looked at her, then asked the maid to help her up.
"Sister Princess, you are such a rare guest. How come you have time to come and see me today?"
Song Qingxue sneered and said, "Come and see how you can enjoy it peacefully. This princess is still standing here like nothing happened. Aren't you afraid?"
As soon as these words came out, Su Ruqian's expression suddenly changed.
But soon, she forced a smile and said sarcastically, "What are you saying, Princess? It's as if my sister did something bad and wanted to harm me."
"Didn't you do it?" Song Qingxue asked back lightly.
Su Ruqian's expression froze, but she still said stubbornly, "Of course not. The prince has long said that we women in the backyard should get along well with each other and not worry about it all day and cause trouble for him. How dare my sister disobey the prince's order?"
"Oh? You don't dare?"
Song Qingxue knew, of course, that nothing could be gained from asking the question. Unless one was a fool, one would not confess after being questioned a few times.
The purpose of her trip was not to get a result, but to give Su Ruqian a warning.
Su Ruqian is simply a big-breasted, brainless idiot who will never clean up after doing something bad. We can definitely find some clues from her that can prove her innocence.
The reason why Song Qingxue came to Su Ruqian in such a high-profile manner was to make her panic and lose her composure.
Whenever Su Ruqian gets panicky, she will want to do something to cover it up, and when she starts to cover it up, it is the best time to find evidence.
Now Su Ruqian was obviously a little confused by her words. She just needed to say a few more words to scare her.
Facing Song Qingxue's questioning, Su Ruqian could only respond with a scalp: "Of course I dare not do it under the order of the prince."
"Haha, then you are really obedient." Song Qingxue said: "Since the concubine has said so, this princess can't say anything to embarrass you. But sister, you should listen to my advice and don't trust the people below too much. It's really because the big girl in your yard ran around and saw something, so this princess had to suspect you."
Su Ruqian's expression softened after hearing this, and she asked in a pretentious manner, "Hmm? Sister Princess has been here talking for a long time, but I still don't know what happened today? What did Pan Xiang do to make you suspect me so much?"
"Nothing, it's just that your girl falsely accused me of hiding a man in the room." Song Qingxue paused, then asked, "You really don't know about this?"
Su Ruqian's mood was up and down and she felt very uncomfortable, but she didn't want to argue with Song Qingxue now.
After all, Pan Xiang never came back after she went out today, and she couldn't go out either. She really didn't know what happened today.
Judging from what Song Qingxue said, the man should have been caught in public. But she was caught in public, and the prince let her walk around freely. This must be something serious.
She couldn't be escaped into it.
After thinking for a while, Su Ruqian said, "My sister is still under house arrest. She can't even go out. How can she know what happened outside today?"
"It is I who was reckless. In that case, I will leave first. Concubine, you can continue to rest."
Finally, she said she wanted to leave. Su Ruqian naturally didn't stop her and said quickly, "Sister Princess, take care."
Song Qingxue just smiled, said nothing, and walked away.
