Chapter 143 The Daughter of a Guilty Minister vs. the Disabled Prince 57
Sun Jiayi was not in a hurry to rescue people and let Lin Wan'er struggle in the lake.
She didn't care whether Lin Wan'er was dead or alive. It would be best if Lin Wan'er died. One life is worth another life. Yun Fengyi would definitely die!
Sun Jiayi's face was filled with anger, and she asked fiercely, "Yun Fengyi is so bold! Now that the evidence is irrefutable, do you admit your guilt?"
If Xiao Yan had not seen it with his own eyes, he would have almost believed these people's lies.
One thing leads to another, and the pressure is getting tighter and tighter, leaving him no room for maneuver at all. The fights between the women in the palace are also bloody, and being in the middle of them is even more dangerous than being in the court.
He would never let Xiaoyun get involved in such a struggle. When he ascends the throne one day, he will only want Xiaoyun!
Xiao Yan sneered, "She scratched her face and jumped down by herself. She is framing me. Can't the princess see that?"
Sun Jiayi became even more angry. "A woman's appearance is so important. Which woman would destroy her own appearance to frame you? Besides, the lake water is icy cold. Jumping in would hurt her body. Unless she didn't want to live, why would she jump in by herself?"
"Lin Liangyuan's status and position are higher than yours. Would she risk her life to frame a criminal slave like you?"
Lin Wan'er was indeed able to swim, but she had already lost all her strength in struggling. Seeing that she was about to sink, she could no longer pretend and swam hard towards the shore, shouting, "Save me! Princess, save me!"
Sun Jiayi seemed to have just reacted, and turned around and shouted angrily: "Assholes! Why don't you go down and save people! If anything happens to Lin Liangyuan, I will kill you!"
Two eunuchs who could swim jumped in and quickly rescued Lin Wan'er who had swam to the shore.
Lin Wan'er choked on a lot of water and lay on the ground like a dead fish, with one arm hanging down and unable to use any strength. The wound on her face was soaked and turned white, and the hideous flesh was turned inside out.
Sun Jiayi winked at Xiaoqing, who immediately stepped forward to help Lin Wan'er up, then took out an exquisite white porcelain bottle and applied the ointment inside on Lin Wan'er's face.
"Lin Liangyuan, don't worry. This skin-growing ointment is a secret medicine from the Imperial Hospital. No matter how severe the injury is, it won't leave scars."
The cool cream dissipated the burning pain on her face. Lin Wan'er had seen the effect of this skin-regenerating cream with her own eyes, so she had no doubts at all and immediately knelt down and cried:
"Thank you so much for the medicine, Princess. If you hadn't arrived in time, even if I didn't die, my appearance would have been ruined. My life would have been over..."
Sun Jiayi personally helped Lin Wan'er up and comforted her, "I am here, Lin Liangyuan, don't be afraid. If you have any grievances, just tell me. I will definitely take care of it for you."
Lin Wan'er was shaking with fear in her eyes, and she cried even harder, "I happened to pass by here to enjoy the scenery, and Yun Fengyi was so overbearing that she said I stayed here just to seduce His Highness. When she failed to drive me away, she broke my wrist."
"She was jealous of my beauty, and not satisfied with scratching my face, she pushed me into the water. All my maids saw it, and many palace servants passing by also saw it. Everything I said is true. If I lied, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death!"
A few palace maids appeared out of nowhere and said in unison that they saw Yun Fengyi committing a crime, and their description sounded very detailed.
Xiao Yan was already very impatient, "I broke your wrist because you wanted to push me into the water! Get out of here! I don't have time to tangle with you."
As soon as Sun Jiayi gave an order, someone immediately stopped "Yun Fengyi".
In addition to the eunuchs and maids, there was actually a team of guards guarding the lake. Although there were only a few of them, they were equipped with bows and arrows and swords. Such a configuration was obviously not something that a mere prince's wife could mobilize.
Under normal circumstances, Xiao Yan would not be afraid of any number of imperial guards, but today he was using Xiaoyun's body, and he did not dare to make any big movements for fear of hurting Xiaoyun's body.
"Sun Jiayi! Do you know your own identity? You are His Highness's princess consort, not Concubine Wu's lackey! Withdraw the guards, and I will plead with His Highness for you."
Sun Jiayi burst into laughter and simply stopped pretending, "Empress Wu wants you to die, and so do I! If you don't die, His Highness will focus all his attention on you. No matter how good I am to His Highness, His Highness won't be able to see it."
"Wen Lan comes to your room every day just to see His Highness. Do you really think you can dominate His Highness for the rest of his life? I am His Highness's legal wife! You are just a criminal slave. If I kill you today, His Highness may be angry, but he dare not abolish me. There is still a long time to come, and His Highness will definitely reconcile with me."
A layer of cold sweat broke out on Xiao Yan's forehead. He only thought about protecting Xiaoyun. Wei Ling followed Xiaoyun, and those secret guards disguised as eunuchs also followed Xiaoyun. He actually forgot that he would be in danger.
People kept rushing towards him, and to his side was the bottomless lake. He tried his best to dodge, waiting for an opportunity to push these people into the lake.
Sun Jiayi was anxious and shouted angrily: "Idiots! They are all idiots! With so many people, they can't even catch a woman! Just shoot her and kill her! I will reward you handsomely!"
With a whoosh, a sharp arrow broke through the air and aimed at Yun Fengyi's heart.
Xiao Yan immediately grabbed a eunuch and stood in front of him. The eunuch was hit by an arrow in the stomach and let out a shrill cry.
Without any hesitation, Xiao Yan threw the eunuch into the lake. Faced with life and death, he didn't care about the pregnancy. After kicking down a few people, he flashed and rushed to Sun Jiayi in an instant and grabbed her neck.
"Stop! Or I'll kill her!"
Sun Jiayi widened her eyes in horror and screamed, "Stop, stop! Don't shoot anymore, do you want to kill me?"
The eunuchs dared not move, and the guards also stopped, but the arrows were still on the bowstrings, ready to take action at any time.
Sun Jiayi's legs were trembling. If she hadn't been strangled by someone, she would have collapsed to the ground.
"Yun Fengyi, let's talk it over nicely. After all, we don't have any deep hatred. I didn't intend to kill you, but you insisted on going against me. If you had confessed your crime earlier and waited for His Highness to come back and deal with you, things wouldn't have turned out like this. Why don't you let me go and we..."
Xiao Yan pinched even harder, and Sun Jiayi rolled her eyes, unable to utter a word.
"Princess, please shut up. If I let you go, I will be shot to pieces! Before His Highness comes back, please stay with me."
"Everyone get out of the way, I want to go back to Xiaozhu Garden!"
As long as someone in Xiaozhuyuan goes to report the news, Xiaoyun will be back soon and he will be safe.
Xiao Yan had only taken two steps holding Sun Jiayi hostage when he suddenly felt a dull pain in his stomach, as if all his internal organs were mixed up together. The pain was so severe that his eyes went dark.
Sun Jiayi finally pried open Yun Fengyi's hands. She no longer cared about saving face, and rolled on the ground, shouting, "Shoot! Kill her!"
