This this...
If he hadn't been sitting, Lord Yang would have been so scared that he would have fallen to his knees. Although his daughter was a little bit spoiled, she wasn't so ignorant!
Are you going to kill the whole family?
Lord Yang was shocked, angry, and terrified, and wanted to strangle his own daughter to death. "You evil creature, you have no evidence and are talking nonsense. I will beat you to death when I get home!"
"Dad, what do you mean by without evidence? Isn't that handkerchief evidence? Miss Ling's handkerchief is in the hands of the deceased Princess Ningyang, isn't that evidence? Moreover, Miss Ling and the arrested villain were not at the Qionglin Banquet the entire time. They both had the motive and the time to commit the crime? I have no grudge against them, I just expressed my guess. Is that wrong? Did the princess' life and innocence go to waste?"
Lord Yang certainly couldn't say that the princess's innocence and life were thrown away in vain, but, "You are simply... a bastard! Of course, there is the emperor's judgment, and the officials of the Ministry of Justice will interrogate you. You... you... I will beat you to death!"
Yang Jiaoer refused to take the beating and ran away, saying unconvincedly, "Dad, you don't dare to say anything because of Miss Ling's identity. I'm not afraid! I just say whatever comes to my mind!"
People are always more willing to believe in bad things, or in other words, most people would rather see others living a bad life and being ruined, and they will have an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.
When the man on the ground first said this, others didn't think much of it.
Yang Jiao'er had just opened her mouth and hadn't thought much about it yet.
After all, it sounds a bit unbelievable. Miss Ling San is engaged! And what day is it and what place is it today? If she had any brains, even if she was fickle, she would not rush to seduce her lover at this time.
At this moment, Yang Jiaoer's ignorant and fearless words again made a few people think something was wrong.
Indeed, the general's mansion was heavily guarded, and the man on the ground was just a weak scholar. The origin of this embroidered handkerchief was very subtle.
After hearing what Yang Jiao'er said, the restrained man on the ground immediately spoke up for Baili Feiyue and took all the blame on himself, "No! It has nothing to do with Third Miss Ling! I picked up this handkerchief! It has nothing to do with Third Miss Ling! I am the one who committed the heinous crime against Your Highness! It has nothing to do with Third Miss Ling! She knows nothing!"
It sounds like the maintenance is too worrying, and the maintenance is a bit incoherent.
However, this protection, quietly pushed Baili Feiyue to the forefront little by little!
With this kind of rebuttal attitude, no one would believe him!
Of course, most of the people present were not fools. On the contrary, they were smarter than anyone else. Because of their smartness, when a certain conjecture that made their hair stand on end came to their mind, they were so scared that they broke into a cold sweat.
It is most common for officials to pretend to be ignorant even though they know the truth.
Since ancient times, it is not that the officials are stupid, on the contrary, they are too smart!
Therefore, when everything before their eyes became more and more targeted and more and more inclined, even some not-so-smart people could vaguely feel that today's matter was not simple.
Now, I really feel very uncomfortable.
After all, those newly-appointed scholars were no match for the court officials who had been immersed in officialdom for many years, as well as those young ladies from official families. Some people heard this and then looked at Baili Feiyue with inevitably suspicious eyes.
As everyone was thinking their own thoughts or looking at them with suspicion and contempt, the woman who should have been ashamed, or even if she wasn't ashamed, would have minimized her presence, could be heard letting out a low laugh.
Baili Feiyue looked at Yang Jiaoer with interest, then looked at the man on the ground.
"Interesting, really interesting. One wants to 'protect' me, and the other wants to accuse me. Excuse me, have you asked for my opinion? Have you asked for my consent?"
"What crime? I'm telling the truth!" Yang Jiao'er immediately retorted. Then she said disdainfully, "Isn't that handkerchief yours?"
Baili Feiyue laughed, "No, it looks like that thing is indeed mine. Although I don't usually use it."
"Then how do you explain that your handkerchief is in the hands of the dead Princess Ningyang?"
"Miss, I've said it, it has nothing to do with Miss Ling San... I picked up this handkerchief... It was also me, I saw Miss Ling San by accident earlier, and when I was following Miss Ling San, I was discovered by Her Royal Highness the Princess. I was panicked and confused for a moment... That's why I killed someone..." These words seemed to be defending, but in fact they made things worse. When the man on the ground met Baili Feiyue's eyes, he gradually couldn't continue.
I just felt that the woman's eyes exposed outside the veil were as dark as a deep pool, unfathomable. The most important thing was that at this time, she was still smiling with a bit of a vague smile, which made people's scalps numb and shudder!
Baili Feiyue even looked at him with a smile, "It seems that we are destined to be together. You picked up my handkerchief just like you said you did."
For some reason, the man felt as if something was strangling his throat, and suffocation, fear, and despair came over him like a tide.
He tried desperately to stretch his neck, his throat making a hissing sound. When he was able to speak, he breathed hard and looked at Baili Feiyue almost as if he were a ghost.
"What? Aren't you in love with me? What's with that look?" Baili Feiyue took two steps closer. The man couldn't help himself, and even though he was restrained by the guards, he subconsciously moved back suddenly.
He swallowed and spoke with difficulty, "Yes... I was following you... I picked it up by accident..."
"I pity your kindness." Baili Feiyue clicked her tongue twice, "For your kindness, I might as well give you an embroidered handkerchief."
She took out an embroidered handkerchief that was exactly the same as the evidence, but the man on the ground didn't dare to take it.
"Why, you admire me so much, follow me, and collect my handkerchief. Now I give it to you personally, aren't you happy and don't want it?"
"I...I want it. But, I'm afraid of disturbing the lady..." The man on the ground said it with great difficulty.
She was very considerate. "What are you afraid of? I'm not afraid of anything. Here, take it."
Even if the man didn't want to take it anymore, he had no choice but to take the handkerchief from her hand. However, the moment he took the handkerchief, smoke suddenly came out of his hands.
"Ah~!" A pig-slaughtering howl sounded, and in front of everyone's eyes, the hands turned into white bones after green smoke!
The people present were shocked again by this scene!
Yes, how could they forget and not even think about who this Third Miss Ling is!
Yang Jiao'er was also horrified, "Ling... Ling Jing, you are so cruel! You actually... actually..."
Baili Feiyue clapped her hands, raised her eyebrows and said calmly, "Did you see that? If someone else picked up something that fell from my hand or from my body, the consequences would be like this."
