Chapter 137 Interrogation
Hearing what the two said, everyone around them opened their eyes wide.
It seems that things are even more intriguing!
Not only the young ladies from the various mansions, but even Old Lady Meng remained silent, just looking at Yuan Ziyu, wanting to know what she would say next.
"You're talking nonsense!" Liu Xueqing felt uneasy for a moment, then she glared at Yuan Ziyu through gritted teeth, "Don't try to bluff. Do you think everyone will believe you just because you say a few words? Are you treating everyone like fools?"
"Really? You don't believe me?" Yuan Ziyu smiled faintly: "Come to think of it, you two are so far away from us, and you are hiding from others, so you must think that no one can hear what you say! It's a pity that my ears have always been very good..."
After saying that, without waiting for Liu Xueqing to speak again, he said, "Liu Xueqing, you let Chen Yao spread those rumors, trying to ruin my reputation and even trying to force me to death. I don't ask why, today I just want justice!"
With a "whoosh" sound, everyone was making a noise!
Everyone looked at Liu Xueqing in amazement. The rumors about Yuan Ziyu had been circulating for the past few days with great detail and evidence. Almost everyone believed them to be true, and they wanted to stay away from Yuan Ziyu when they saw him.
But if what Yuan Ziyu said is true, this rumor was spread by Liu Xueqing. If that is true, then what kind of hatred or grudge is this that makes her so vicious?
For a moment, everyone couldn't believe their ears.
"Bah!" Liu Xueqing spat. "Stop slandering me. You did something yourself, and someone told you about it, but you're trying to frame me and clear your name. No way!"
"It doesn't matter if you don't admit it!" Yuan Ziyu sneered, "You're not the only one who knows about this. I think someone will eventually speak up!"
After saying that, Yuan Ziyu glared at Chen Yao.
After being glared at by Yuan Ziyu, Chen Yao's legs suddenly became weak again. She had to support herself with the help of her maid before she could barely stand up!
Seeing Chen Yao's cowardly look, Liu Xueqing couldn't help but feel anxious. She wanted to hint to Chen Yao, but she was afraid that she would give everyone the impression that she was trying to hide something. In addition, she was in great pain, which made her even more annoyed. She could only secretly signal Chen Yao with her eyes not to talk nonsense.
But Chen Yao was so panicked that she didn't understand Liu Xueqing's hint at all.
"Miss Chen San!" Yuan Ziyu walked towards Chen Yao step by step, the corners of his lips curved: "Are you going to tell me yourself, or do you need me to do anything?"
"You...you...can't hit me!" Chen Yao was so scared that she stuttered, "I...didn't say anything to you!"
"Really?" Yuan Ziyu raised an eyebrow and said with a smile, "Then just now in the garden, were you worried about what Miss Fang would tell me?"
As soon as Yuan Ziyu said this, Liu Xueqing and Chen Yao were sure that Yuan Ziyu had indeed heard their whisper. Liu Xueqing secretly clenched her fists and stared at Chen Yao, fearing that she would not be able to hold back and tell the truth.
Chen Yao was even more frightened, her body trembling, but she still insisted, "I really don't know what you are talking about, Miss Yuan Er."
"I don't know!" Yuan Ziyou smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't know!"
As he spoke, Yuan Ziyu took out a small bottle from his purse and shook it in front of Chen Yao: "Do you know what this is?"
Chen Yao looked at Yuan Ziyu without saying a word, her face turning pale!
Yuan Ziyu continued to laugh and said, "As for me, besides wielding swords and guns, I also like to delve into pharmacology. It's a pity that I can't make proper pills, but I can make quite a few weird and wonderful things!"
Yuan Ziyu shook the small bottle in front of Chen Yao again: "This is blinding powder. If you get it on your eyes, you will lose your sight!"
Chen Yao couldn't help but tremble when she heard this: "Miss Yuan Er, don't scare me!"
"I don't believe it!" Yuan Ziyu smiled faintly, took out the stopper of the small bottle, and unexpectedly sprinkled the powder in the bottle on Chen Yao's face.
"What are you doing!" Chen Yao didn't care about being afraid and angrily tried to wipe off the powder on her face. Some of the powder even got into her eyes.
"Third Miss!" Chen Yao's maid quickly took out a handkerchief and wiped Chen Yao's face!
After finally wiping her face clean, Chen Yao wanted to scold Yuan Ziyu for his rudeness, but the next moment, Chen Yao let out an incredible scream!
"My eyes, I can't see!" Chen Yao waved her hands in front of her eyes in panic, but all she saw was darkness.
"Miss!" Chen Yao's maid hurriedly supported Chen Yao and tried it in front of Chen Yao, exclaiming: "Your eyes... eyes..."
"Yuan Ziyu, what did you do to me?" The fear of blindness made Chen Yao forget her fear of Yuan Ziyu and asked loudly.
"I just told you, this is blinding powder. If you don't believe me, I can only let you try it!" Yuan Ziyu said with a smile.
The onlookers couldn't help but be secretly shocked. No one expected that Yuan Ziyu had such a thing in her hand. If someone offended her and she used this blinding powder on them, wouldn't they be unable to see?
For a moment, some people who were originally dissatisfied with Yuan Ziyu's rude behavior in their hearts became a little afraid of Yuan Ziyu, and naturally did not dare to criticize her anymore. If they accidentally revealed their thoughts and aroused Yuan Ziyu's jealousy, wouldn't they be the same as Miss Chen San?
"You..." Chen Yao's voice trembled: "You actually poisoned me!"
"Then you're wrong. I didn't poison you. You just didn't believe me, so I let you experience it!" Yuan Ziyou laughed and said, "If I really wanted to poison you, would I let you know in front of everyone?"
"You..." Chen Yao couldn't see and became even more panicked. If she could still hold on before, she would be a little confused now.
"Will you tell me or not?" Yuan Ziyu asked. "If you don't want to tell me, I still have a lot of medicinal powders here. If you are interested, you can try them one by one and see which one you like. Well, let me see what kind of medicinal powders I brought today. There are itching powder, acne powder, deafness powder, croton powder... well, there are quite a lot."
As he spoke, Yuan Ziyou looked at Chen Yao's increasingly pale face and continued, "If you tell the truth, I'll give you the antidote. But if you refuse to tell the truth, then I'll have you try them one by one. It just so happens that no one has tried these medicinal powders yet, and you'll be the first!"
There are so many medicinal powders, and you still want her to try them all?
Chen Yao was mentally devastated. Just one blinding powder made her crazy. Wouldn't so much powder cost her life?
"I'm telling you, I'm telling you, give me the antidote, give me the antidote!" Chen Yao no longer cared about anything else and said loudly.
"Don't say it!" Seeing Chen Yao relax, Liu Xueqing became very anxious and blurted out the words without thinking!
After she finished speaking, she regretted it. Looking at the way everyone was looking at her, she had only one thought in her mind: It's over!
