Chapter 48 Why didn’t you save her?
Nanny Hong glanced at everyone angrily, took out a small, crystal-clear flute the length of a finger from her bosom, put it in her mouth and blew gently.
"Be careful of her, don't let her play any tricks!"
As soon as Mrs. Chen finished speaking, Eunuch Chen's expression became even gloomier.
If she thought she could escape, she was too naive. No one could escape from his clutches.
soon.
There was a sound of hurried running coming from behind the lush green trees, followed by a shocking voice.
"Mother……"
The voice was clear, choked and excited.
The familiarity made the ladies turn around almost instantly. When they saw their daughters, clean and gorgeously dressed, running towards them, their eyes widened suddenly, and they screamed and ran towards their daughters, reaching out to hug their daughters tightly in their arms.
At that moment.
The dead heart came back to life.
"Yun'er, is that you? Yun'er."
"Li Wangshu, you scared me to death, you scared me to death."
"Shishi, my daughter, are you dead and coming back to life, or are you really alive? Tell me quickly."
The daughter in my arms was soft and fragrant, and she had a shadow, looking alive.
Several ladies were so moved that they burst into tears.
He held his daughter's face in his hands and looked at her again and again, hugged her again and again.
I couldn't believe it was real, that they were alive. Sometimes they hugged each other and laughed, sometimes they hugged each other and cried.
Chu Jiuning stepped forward.
"Calm down, everyone."
Seeing this, several ladies hurriedly wiped their tears and nodded heavily. Li Wangshu hugged Madam Li tightly and cried softly.
"It's my daughter's fault for being unfilial and making my mother worry."
Through tearful eyes, she saw her father striding towards her, and she quickly threw herself into Li Shaoqing's arms, bursting into tears.
"Father, I thought I was really going to be burned to death. The fire was so big, we couldn't escape, and no one came to rescue us. I was really scared to death."
Lord Li was horrified as he looked at his daughter in his arms, who was trembling all over and looking pale. His heart ached and he hugged his daughter and wife tightly in his arms. The three of them cried uncontrollably. He kissed his wife's hair, then kissed his daughter's hair, crying and murmuring.
"That's great, that's great."
"How come they are all alive? What about my daughter? Why did she die?"
Mrs. Chen stared blankly at the scene of their family reunion, feeling so painful in her heart that she couldn't speak. All three of them survived, but her daughter was the only one who died. Is this fair?
She almost collapsed. She ran to her daughter's body, lifted the white cloth covering her, and tears fell down her face.
Eunuch Chen also realized at this moment that this person should have been rescued by Chu Jiuning, but why did he leave his daughter behind?
"Why didn't you save her?"
Eunuch Chen pointed at Chen Qingwu who was covered with a white cloth and asked in a trembling voice, "It was just a little bit, just a little bit and there would be a glimmer of hope."
Chu Jiuning turned to look at Amber, who said with a cold face.
"I originally wanted to rescue all four young ladies, but when I climbed in, one of them was already lying motionless in the sea of fire. In comparison, I could only take care of the living one first, but I couldn't bear it, so I went back to feel her pulse, but she was already dead and had no breath. That's why I gave up. It's not that I didn't want to save her."
After saying that.
Amber rolled up her sleeves, revealing her burn wounds.
"This injury was caused by trying to save her from burns. She must have fallen."
"I didn't fall."
Li Wangshu suddenly raised his tear-stained face and spoke each word with trembling lips.
"Someone pushed her down. She could have been saved."
Eunuch Chen and Madam Chen suddenly raised their eyes, their eyes bloodshot from the pain. Madam Chen rushed towards Li Wangshu and pulled her out of her father's arms, grabbing her hand and squeezing it hard, causing her to cry.
"What on earth is going on? Who pushed her? Was it you?"
"Mrs. Chen, how can you be so disrespectful!"
Lord Li stepped forward, grabbed Madam Chen's wrist and pushed her away. Li Wangshu hurriedly snuggled into her father's warm embrace and refused to speak. Madam Chen was so anxious that she stamped her feet and asked her in a shrill voice.
"What are you hiding for? Are you afraid to speak? Did you do it? Tell me, tell me quickly."
As he spoke, he seemed to remember something. He turned his head suddenly, glared at Liu Yunyi and Qian Shiyu, and asked them hysterically.
"Is it you? Is it you? Why did you do that? How dare you kill her?"
Liu Yunyi and Qian Shiyu, who had survived the disaster, were already extremely frightened. Madam Chen's ferocious glare frightened them so much that their legs went weak and they almost fainted.
The Crown Prince and Chu Jiuning frowned at the same time and looked at Eunuch Chen, their impatience gradually becoming apparent. Eunuch Chen's eyes flashed with an unnatural look, and he stepped forward, pinched her wrist, and said coldly.
"Calm down, the matter is not yet clear."
Mrs. Chen's body was shaking violently, and she held her face with her hands and cried bitterly. After a while, Liu Yunyi said in horror.
"He's a very tall servant with a mole on his ear. He..."
As soon as the words fell.
A servant in the crowd turned and ran.
The hidden weapon in Shen Liuguang's hand whizzed out, and the servant immediately fell to the ground with a bang. Eunuch Chen waved his hand, and the man was caught by the eunuchs and dragged over.
"It's him."
Liu Yunyi and several young ladies nodded.
"Originally, Miss Chen was closest to him, so logically, he should have saved her first. However... when Miss Chen approached him crying, he actually pushed her down and immediately turned to save Miss Song II..."
The four words "Second Miss Song" were like a bomb, which immediately blew out the Duke's wife and Song Jinhuai who were watching the fun.
The moment they saw them come out alive, the smug look on the faces of Lady Guo and Song Jinhuai froze, and they only came to their senses now.
Song Ruier was so frightened that she almost subconsciously turned her head and looked around, trying to find a place to hide. Finally, she hid behind Nanny Qi.
Several ladies had strange expressions on their faces and were completely stunned.
What was said before was not like that at all. Didn’t the Duke’s wife say that Song Ruier had left?
How did you get into a fire?
"Miss Chen grabbed his hand and asked him to save her, but he pushed her away and she fell. He carefully wrapped Miss Song in wet blankets and rushed out. We also wanted to save Miss Chen, but a burning stick came down and blocked our way."
"When this girl came in, the first thing she wanted to do was save Miss Chen, but she was already dead, and we were also in danger at the time, so she had to give up."
"Mrs. Chen, you keep saying that we murdered Miss Chen, but you should also provide evidence, right? You can't wrongly accuse us of murder just because you lost a daughter. We...we really wanted to save her."
