Several women didn't understand what was going on, but nodded anyway.
"Yes! This is the box!"
Jiang Jingyu chuckled and held up the two rouge boxes in her hands in front of the people.
"Open your eyes and look carefully. All rouge sold by Ningzhi Shop has a small maple leaf shape on the bottom of the box, but the one in your hand doesn't have one."
As Jiang Jingyu spoke, she held up the rouge box in front of the people. Only then did everyone realize that one of the two rouge boxes had a maple leaf shape on the bottom, while the other did not.
"A false accusation! It's a false accusation!"
"Great, they've all been falsely accused of something!"
"General Zhengbei's family has guarded the northern border for three generations, protecting their country. It would be fine if you weren't grateful, but now you're turning the tables and blaming them. Doesn't your conscience hurt?"
In an instant, those women who provoked trouble became the target of public criticism.
Several women subconsciously looked at the rouge boxes in their hands, and sure enough, there was no maple leaf-shaped mark on the bottom.
It’s over!
They were badly harmed!
The women lowered their heads, exchanged glances, and said angrily, "Maybe, maybe we remembered it wrong! We confused the rouge from another shop with the rouge from the Nengzhi shop!"
"Sorry, I'm so sorry. We'll take the rouge and go find that black-hearted merchant!"
"How dare he forge the rouge from Ningzhi Shop? Madam and Young Madam, please don't let that person go!"
After saying this, the few of them tucked their tails between their legs and tried to run away in shame.
But how could Jiang Jingyu let them go so easily?
"Come here, take these people to Jingzhao Yin and ask them who is behind this."
"yes!"
Two guards came up to them with shining swords in their hands, and took them to Jingzhao Yin regardless of their wailing.
Any disputes in the city must first be investigated by the Jingzhao Yin, and no one has the right to force the issue on their own.
However, before they reached Jingzhao Yin, several arrows appeared out of nowhere and ended the lives of the five women.
The accusation of murder and silencing of witnesses spread quickly in Kyoto and soon reached the ears of the Prime Minister.
"Go and call the young lady."
"yes!"
When the servant came to Jiang Jingran's courtyard, she was asking a serious question to the Green Guard who was kneeling on the ground.
"Is everything cleaned up?"
"Don't worry, young lady. Everyone involved in this matter has been silenced. Even if the Jingzhao Yin has all-powerful abilities, he won't be able to find anything about you."
Jiang Jingran had just breathed a sigh of relief when she received a message from the servant. Without thinking much about it, she followed the servant to the study.
"All of you please step back."
As soon as Jiang Jingran arrived at the study, the Prime Minister dismissed everyone. It was not until the study door was closed that the Prime Minister slowly stood up from his seat.
"Why did my father ask me to come here?"
