Chapter 236 I don’t even know you, how can I save you?
Everyone was attracted by this sudden plot, even Xu Yanyi was watching with interest, tilting her head.
With this move, she thought Mu Liufang and the others had given up.
After all, she had already told the maid. Could it be that they didn't even ask the maid?
What Xu Yanyi didn't know was that after they left, in order to silence Youyou, the Lin family also used a beggar dressed as an assassin. The maid and the boy were dragged away to be dealt with while they were still unconscious.
I'm afraid that the two of them were still confused when they got down to King Yan's Palace, not understanding why they died!
Mu Nanzhou's eyebrows twitched slightly. He looked at Xu Yanyi and couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "Isn't that the one just now..."
"Why, do you want to slander me by saying that I brought it?"
Xu Yanyi choked him.
Mu Nanzhou Jun's face was gloomy: "This king did not mean that! It's just..."
Before he finished speaking, the man stammered, "I, I came...here to find my master. My master wants to give me a secret letter today..."
Upon hearing this, Mu Liufang immediately shouted angrily: "Who is your master!"
The man raised his arm with difficulty and tremblingly pointed at Xu Yanyi who was holding her cheek and watching the show.
Everyone was shocked.
"Why her?"
"I knew it was her. Have you forgotten the rebellion three years ago?"
"Yes, but didn't she keep saying that she was wronged?"
"Tsk, after you've done something so evil and sinister, will you admit it?"
“That’s also…”
Xu Yanyi rolled her eyes. These people are all fence-sitters. They believe whatever others say. Do they have any brains at all?
Mu Nanzhou frowned fiercely: "What nonsense are you talking about! How can my princess be your master? Tell me, what are you here for?"
The man glanced at Mu Liufang and said, "I... I said I wanted to take the secret letter from my master and... assassinate you, King Nanling... I just didn't expect to be caught..."
Mu Nanzhou Jun's face was gloomy. He just saw this man and Lin Mengyan and the others in the room... so cool! How come he suddenly became an assassin, and he was Xu Yanyi's man. This... this is nonsense?
Mu Liufang immediately stepped forward and said, "This shameless villain is actually a traitor! Come, drag him away and beat him to death with sticks, so as not to slander the innocence of Princess Nanling!"
"yes!"
"yes!"
Immediately, a servant came forward to drag the dying man away. The man quickly said, "Princess, save me! Save me!"
Xu Yanyi looked at him leisurely: "I don't even know you, how can I save you?"
"Princess, Princess, you can't do this to me!" The man struggled to crawl to Xu Yanyi.
Xu Yanyi said impatiently: "Since you said you were instructed by me, you should at least produce evidence to prove that I am in the same group with you, right? Otherwise, if you just point to someone casually, that person will become your accomplice, right?"
The man swallowed and glanced at Mu Liufang cautiously. Mu Liufang nodded imperceptibly.
"Princess...please forgive me for the offense. Each of us assassins has a poem engraved on our body, and yours is engraved on the necklace around your neck." The man raised the silver.
Xu Yanyi yawned and glanced at Mu Liufang. Oh, she was really tired of dealing with these idiots!
Master Yue suddenly spoke up: "This set of clothes and jewelry were provided by Madam Mu, right?"
Everyone looked at Mu Liufang.
Mu Liufang seemed to have anticipated this, and she immediately said: "It is true that I asked someone to provide the clothes and jewelry to Princess Nanling, but the necklace was left in the Mu family many years ago. After the Mu family suffered a disaster, the necklace was not lost. I have always treasured it and never touched it..."
The implication is that Xu Yanyi was a traitor many years ago, and this is the evidence!
After all, there was the rebel rebellion, and coupled with this, I'm afraid many people believe it to be 80% to 90%.
Xu Yanyi wanted to take back the idea of scolding Mu Liufang and the others for being stupid. She was still a little smart. However, this was simply not true. If you say you didn't touch her, then you didn't touch her. If you are talking about someone with a slightly better reputation than Xu Yanyi, no one present would believe it.
What a pity. Isn't Mu Liufang acting so brazenly just because he takes advantage of Xu Yanyi's bad reputation and cannot explain clearly what happened three years ago?
Master Lin coughed twice, clasped his fists and said to Xu Yanyi: "Princess, if possible, please take off the pearl chain. I will verify it one by one in front of everyone to prove your innocence!"
That sounds really nice.
Xu Yanyi smiled slightly and reached out to take off the pearl chain. Mu Nanzhou beside her subconsciously held her hand and reminded her in a low voice: "It's a fraud! You don't have to..."
Before Mu Nanzhou finished speaking, Xu Yanyi had already taken off the pearl necklace and threw it at the feet of Master Lin: "Master Lin, I give you my pearl necklace. You must be fair and just and don't frame me."
Hearing this, Master Lin broke out in a cold sweat. He avoided Xu Yanyi's sharp eyes and said, "How could it be! I want that lunatic to shut up!"
"Please."
Xu Yanyi raised her hands nonchalantly.
Master Lin ordered someone to bring up the powder, and he personally rolled all the pearls into the red powder. He also ordered someone to bring a row of lanterns to illuminate the scene, and it was indeed very clear.
The guests gathered around curiously to watch, and those who couldn't squeeze in stretched their necks. Xu Yanyi just thought that these people had nothing to do.
Mu Nanzhou looked at Xu Yanyi with a gloomy face. He was not stupid. The man who had just done that in the room with Lin Mengyan and others could definitely not be Xu Yanyi's man. Since he was not Xu Yanyi's man, he must be related to the Lin family, especially Mu Liufang and Lin Mengyan.
So, does Mu Liufang want to harm Xu Yanyi and frame her for treason?
If that's the case, then the pearl necklace might really have...
Mu Nanzhou stood up subconsciously. Mr. Lin had already finished his experience, but he was stunned: "Why...no?"
The guests have already left. Those pearls are just pearls. How can there be any anti-poem engraved on them?
There is no good at all.
Xu Yanyi stretched her back and said, "How is it going? Did you find the mark of the anti-poem?"
"This……"
Mr. Lin's face turned green.
Mu Liufang quickly ran over and checked carefully to make sure there was nothing there: "How could this happen?"
"You seem to really want to find a counter-poem?"
Xu Yanyi walked forward, brushing her hand gently over the beads, and said with a sigh: "It's a pity that these beads are all dirty. But fortunately, I am finally cleared of all charges, right, Madam Mu?"
Mu Liufang's face changed slightly. She suddenly turned around and kicked the beggar: "Someone! Hurry up and drag this assassin out and beat him to death..."
Several servants quickly stepped forward and blocked the beggar's mouth.
Xu Yanyi's eyes moved slightly, and Master Yue immediately understood and stepped forward to grab the hand of one of the servants who was holding the beggar's neck: "Wait!"
