When a large group of female guests came over, they saw the scene where the old tutor almost swore a bloody protest, requesting that Baili Feiyue, the third Miss Ling, be verified for her innocence.
It got so bad that the female soldiers also heard the eunuchs' singing when Emperor Jing appeared. According to the rules, it was inconvenient for them to come without being summoned.
After all, today, in addition to court officials, there are also many outsiders.
At this moment, not only the female guests, but even Li, the nominal mistress, came with everyone.
A barely visible odd smile appeared on the loose face covered with thick gouache.
Ling Jing, you vicious little bitch have finally ended up like this. God has opened his eyes, hahahaha, God has opened his eyes!
The young ladies in Ling Mansion had different expressions. Some were laughing at the joke, some were worried about their reputation being affected. There were also a few who were worried about Baili Feiyue herself.
The old tutor is still kowtowing. He will definitely die on the spot if his innocence is not proven, in order to defend his doctrine with his blood.
The court officials all understood that if Third Miss Ling's innocence was not verified today, this Grand Tutor, a veteran of three dynasties, would be killed on the spot.
Ling Sheng also understood that if Jing'er took the old tutor's life on her shoulders, no matter what the outcome, it would only make the situation worse!
It's extremely insulting!
If it doesn’t work, your life will be ruined!
Apart from the thud of the old tutor's kowtow and his heart-wrenching cry of "Your Majesty, please think twice", there was no other sound at the scene.
Forced by the circumstances, he had to verify it, and Emperor Jing did not ask for it at the first time.
If it were just an ordinary family, or even other ministers, who were not as powerful as the General's Mansion, or were not engaged to the Regent's Mansion, it would not be so serious, precisely because it involved too many things and implicated too many people.
Don't do it lightly.
Seeing this kind of scene, being watched by several pairs of eyes with all kinds of unpredictable thoughts, Baili Feiyue raised an eyebrow, looked around at everyone, and when her sight fell on Li and Ling Yanran, she chuckled softly.
She raised her eyes, her calmness was unpredictable, "Your Majesty, I am willing to cooperate in verifying my innocence."
It seems to be saying that being willing to have a meal with everyone is as normal as anything.
A sharp and fierce light flashed in Li's lifeless eyes.
What's wrong with this little bitch?
Regardless of what Li and others were thinking, Emperor Jing actually felt relieved after hearing what Baili Feiyue said.
Shangguan Xun, who was sitting next to Prime Minister Shangguan, tensed up completely, but Prime Minister Shangguan calmly held his knees and only glanced at Shangguan Xun out of the corner of his eye. The warning was quite clear.
Shangguan Xun calmed down a lot in an instant. Yes, Ajing is not the same Ajing as before. Since she actively cooperated, she must have a foolproof plan. After all, her medical skills are so advanced now.
If I did something in a hurry that caused her trouble again, it might even ruin her plans.
After all, Shangguan Xun was also a nobleman with great talent and reputation. However, after what happened today, he knew that some things were not groundless, which was why he lost his composure.
Emperor Jing looked at Ling Sheng again and said, "General, now that this is the case, in order to clear Miss Ling's name, we have to conduct an examination."
Ling Sheng knew it, and closed his eyes, "I understand."
Emperor Jing then said to the eunuch beside him, "Go back to the palace immediately and select ten experienced maids."
The eunuch took the order and left quickly.
Although the General's Mansion was not too far from the Imperial Palace, it was not so close that one could reach it in an instant. While waiting for the arrival of the nanny, the whole place was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
When the eunuch brought the ten maids, the carriage was going much faster than usual, but everyone still felt like a century had passed.
Because the carriages arrived too fast, many of the maids still looked pale.
The maids all stood up and saluted. Emperor Jing said solemnly, "Examine Miss Ling San to prove her innocence. If you make a mistake or make up a lie, watch your heads!"
The ten maids kowtowed in fear and trepidation. Taking on this task would shorten their lifespans by ten years, so how could they dare to say anything irresponsible?
You must be extremely alert and avoid making mistakes!
Although this is a garden, there are many small houses around the garden for resting.
This matter cannot be verified in person, nor can it be done too far away from everyone. Who knows if something will happen in the middle. Since it is still innocent, it is best to do it under our noses.
Zhan Xiuzhu, who had been kneeling there and also kept silent for a long time, kowtowed again and said, "Your Majesty, Ling Jing has now mastered a strange and almost demonic medical skill. Look at this child, she is so quiet, I don't know what she did. If she did the same to these maids in the house, then..."
The medical skills of Miss Ling San made the people present suddenly remember this incident.
Mu Qing wanted to come up and crush Zhan Xiuzhu to death with her feet, and said to Emperor Jing, "Your Majesty, I am willing to go in with you. I am willing to watch Ling Jing, and I am willing to guarantee with my head that she will not do anything so-called tricky!"
Although it's not very appropriate, Emperor Jing really wants to say, you? Everyone knows that you and Ling Jing are in the same boat!
Sure enough, Emperor Jing didn't say it, but someone else said it.
A minister sitting below was just discussing the matter at hand. "I think it's inappropriate. Since we have to conduct an investigation, it must be to clear Miss Ling's name. If Miss Mu and Miss Ling's relationship were to be tested, it would damage Miss Ling's innocence."
Mu Qing gritted her teeth. If she didn't go in, who else could go in?
Although she believed in Ling Jing, even if Ling Jing was not innocent, what did it matter? Wasn't she still Mu Qing's friend?
But others obviously don’t think so, and no one will be willing to go in.
Emperor Jing couldn't send a few eunuchs in. Although eunuchs were not complete men, they were not women either!
Emperor Jing was also very considerate of the reputation of the General's Mansion and Baili Feiyue, the Third Miss Ling, and wanted to minimize the inevitable humiliation. He looked at the ladies and asked, "Is there anyone willing to go in and testify?"
As soon as these words came out!
Those ladies wished they hadn't come to watch the fun.
If I don't come forward, I will lose face when I meet people from the General's Mansion in the future. What if Miss Ling San is innocent? How can they have the nerve to ask her to treat their illness in the future?
But if she comes forward, what if she is not innocent?
That is such a filthy thing, their reputation will be affected to some extent.
Just when those ladies were extremely low-key and refused to respond, a girl in a light yellow dress slowly stepped forward and said, "I, I am willing to go in with her."
She mustered up her courage, but someone immediately interrupted her rudely, "Eighth sister, you are also a lady from the general's mansion. Do you think it is convincing for you to come out and testify for the third sister?"
Ling Yanran had a worried look on her face, but deep in her eyes there was unspeakable contempt.
Aunt Lan and Ling Xueer are a pair of fence-sitters. Let’s wait until we kill that bitch Ling Jing before we take these blind idiots in!
Unexpectedly, a charming laugh sounded beside her, "She can't do it, what about me?"
