Chapter 35 No, No
Shen Jiasui just showed weakness on purpose so that everyone could speak freely.
Gu Xizhi was certain that she would not come to the banquet, and knew that she had few friends in Beijing, so she distorted the facts at will, without worrying that anyone would expose her.
Besides, she also calculated that the princess and the other girls were all proud and would not bother to come to her and ask for the truth.
In this way, right and wrong were reversed, and from now on she could appear in front of people openly.
What Shen Jiasui wants to take advantage of now is the pride of the princess and the other girls.
No matter how sharp their words were and how angry they appeared, when the truth came out, they realized how thoroughly they had been used by Gu Xizhi.
Now, she was going to add the final fuel to the fire and completely frame Princess Huaizhen.
She said that Gu Xizhi would never be able to appear in public again!
"What do you mean by that!"
Zhao Huaizhen's face was gloomy at this time, and the others looked at each other.
Shen Jiasui spread his hands and said, "I have some private letters between Lu Yunzheng and Gu Xizhi in my house. If you are interested, I will have someone copy them into a collection and send them to your houses. How do you think?"
"I am just worried that some of the words are unbearable to read and will pollute your eyes."
Shen Jiasui looked innocent and even seemed eager to try.
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
"Shen Jiasui, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"You are such a bad person, are you trying to force Miss Gu to death?"
"That's right, what letter? She just made it up when she got back. Who knows if it's true or not?"
When Shen Jiasui heard this, his smiling face suddenly turned gloomy.
"So you all know that to ruin someone's reputation is to force someone to death. Then today, the princess and everyone else came to question me without knowing the truth. Aren't they also trying to force me to death?"
Seeing Shen Jiasui's sharp tongue, Zhao Huaizhen couldn't help but sneer, "You don't dare to admit what you did?"
"I know Fengzhi's character best. She would never say anything that is groundless."
"Although Miss Gu was wronged, she still refused to blame you in front of us today. But you open your mouth and slander her for private transactions?"
When Shen Jiasui heard this, she found it even more ridiculous. She was full of confidence and her words became even more sharp:
"I've long heard that the princess hates evil and is a person of true character, but after seeing her today, I can see that she is just like that!"
When these words were spoken, everyone present opened their eyes wide in fear.
How...how dare Shen Jiasui?
Coincidentally, at this moment, Cui Mingjue and his party also arrived at the end of the path. When they heard what Shen Jiasui said, their faces changed.
You know, Princess Huaizhen is famous for her bad temper, but she has restrained herself over the years as she has grown older.
If you really annoy her, it will be disastrous!
Sure enough, because of Shen Jiasui's words, Zhao Huaizhen was so angry that his face turned red.
But Shen Jiasui not only did not avoid his attack, but instead became even more aggressive in his remarks:
"Since the princess wants to intervene in the feud between me and Gu Xizhi, she should be fair and impartial. Now she is biased and accusing me harshly. Isn't that bullying?"
"What the princess just said about being ungrateful is something from the previous generation. Let's not talk about it for now. Let's just talk about the fact that I broke up the couple."
"Lu Yunzheng and I were engaged when we were eleven, and Gu Xizhi entered the general's mansion the year after. How come after they fell in love, I, his fiancée, became the intruder?"
"Lu Yunzheng had already fallen in love with someone else, but he was afraid of my father's power and dared not cancel the engagement. He could not let go of his feelings for Gu Xizhi, and the two of them kept in secret and exchanged letters for many years."
"On the day when he came to propose marriage, Lu Yunzheng rashly broke off the engagement, but he also acted like he was deeply in love and had no regrets. If my maid hadn't accidentally seen those letters, my Dingguo General's Mansion would have planned to help them get married."
"I didn't make the truth public before because I was grateful for the kindness of the previous generation and for the relationship I had with Gu Xizhi over the years. I wanted to leave her and Lu Yunzheng with a little dignity."
"But not only does she not know how to behave herself, she even went to the flower viewing party to confuse right and wrong, forcing me into this desperate situation today!"
"My Lady, I am not as noble as you, but I am from a military family, so I am naturally rude and reckless, and I am full of blood."
"No matter how favored you are by heaven, you come to rebuke me today without knowing the whole story. Even if you say it to His Majesty or Prince Rong, I am not afraid."
"If the princess still doesn't believe it, you can find Gu Xizhi now. I will confront her face to face and tell everyone the truth. I'm afraid she will feel guilty and find an excuse to leave the house."
"It's a pity that the princess and the other young ladies were trampled on by her for their righteousness. They were driven by her without knowing it. Today, they came to me to scold me, causing us to have grudges against each other and to retaliate against each other!"
Shen Jiasui said this in one breath, and he finally felt relieved.
She was in the right about today's matter. The worst that could happen was that she would offend Princess Huaizhen. She might as well make a big fuss and let everyone in the capital know about it. This would actually keep her and the general's mansion safe.
She didn't know if it was because she was too excited at the moment, but Shen Jiasui only felt a faint heat in her body, making her blood boil.
Shen Jiasui had finished speaking, but the place fell into complete silence.
Zhao Huaizhen had never been scolded like this to her face before. Her pretty face turned pale and blue, and she couldn't utter a word for a long time.
The other girls behind him and the boys at the end of the path had their chests heaving and their faces filled with horror.
Crazy...
This Shen Jiasui must be crazy...
No wonder she had never been seen attending any banquets before. I was afraid that General Dingguo and his wife were keeping her under control, fearing that she would offend others if she came out!
But at this moment, Shen Jiasui seemed to have no tact and urged again:
"My Lady, my voice was too soft just now. Didn't you hear it clearly?"
"It's okay. Just order someone to call Gu Xizhi over, and she will know that she has done something wrong."
As Shen Jiasui spoke, he raised his hand and wiped his forehead. For some reason, it seemed to be getting hotter and hotter.
Everyone: “…”
She really dares to say it...
Zhao Huaizhen's face turned completely red at this moment.
She clenched her hands, then turned to look at the others. Although they were silent, they could not hide their interest in the eyes, and it was clear that they were watching a show.
This discovery made Zhao Huaizhen feel embarrassed and ashamed. His breathing became heavier and faster. Finally, he could no longer save face, so he rushed forward and raised his hand towards Shen Jiasui.
"How dare you speak to me like that!"
Shen Jiasui was feeling the heat and unbearable. When she saw Zhao Huaizhen coming towards her, she felt annoyed and grabbed Zhao Huaizhen's wrist without thinking.
Unexpectedly, just this much force made her feel dizzy, the heat in her body instantly dissipated, her mouth suddenly became dry, and her hands and feet became weak.
wrong......
wrong......
Shen Jiasui shook his head, and Zhao Huaizhen instantly came back to his senses from his shame and anger.
Because at this moment, Shen Jiasui's palms were extremely hot, and when he held her wrist tightly, it was like a branding iron.
The two of them were in a stalemate, neither of them moving.
Everyone thought that the two were competing secretly, and fearing that things would get out of hand, they dared not stand idly by and walked forward to push Shen Jiasui away.
Cui Mingjue, who was not far away, saw this and frowned. After hesitating for a moment, he trotted over.
He was about to shout to stop them, but at this moment, a man came running from a distance, with a panicked look on his face, shouting:
"Princess! Princess! Wait! We have been deceived by Gu Xizhi!"
At this moment, Shen Jiasui seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly turned his head to look at the pot of tea on the stone table in the pavilion.
