Ling Jiangshuang also walked over quickly, and what was reflected in the pool water was Tai Banxue's outstanding face.
But, where is the slightest sign of red spots?
Tai Banxue's eyes were filled with confusion. She was about to turn around and question him, but Ling Jiangshuang smiled evilly, stretched out his hand, and pushed her down fiercely.
Tai Banxue screamed and fell into the pool.
Tai Banxue's maid yelled, "Miss, Miss!"
Ling Jiangshuang clapped his hands in a rather proud manner: "Miss Tai, what's wrong with you? Why are you jumping in to look at a fish?"
Then she started yelling, "Someone, come! Tai Banxue has fallen into the water!"
Ni Yueshan stood not far away and watched quietly. Ling Jiangshuang was indeed very brave. He even dared to do something that openly offended others...
Ni Yueshan watched with his arms folded across his chest, with no intention of going forward to help.
Soon, palace servants rushed over and rescued Tai Banxue ashore.
Even though the movements were quick, it was winter after all. Tai Banxue's lips turned purple from the cold and she was shivering.
Tai Banxue's maid wiped her tears and pointed at Ling Jiangshuang: "You are too vicious. You pushed my young lady right in front of me!"
Ling Jiangshuang stood aside and looked at the maid in surprise, "What nonsense are you talking about? When did I ever push your young lady?"
Seeing Ling Jiangshuang's blatant denial, the maid's eyes widened: "You, you still don't admit it!"
Ling Jiangshuang became more and more confident: "What am I admitting? I didn't do anything, why should I admit it?"
Tai Banxue lay on the ground, coughing violently. Gradually, she regained some strength and looked at Ling Jiangshuang angrily, "I never thought that Marshal Ling, with his fame and prestige, would be so poor at educating his own children, raising such a domineering, arrogant, and lawless daughter!"
A palace maid brought a cloak and put it on her, saying anxiously, "Miss Tai, please stop talking and go see the imperial physician immediately. Don't catch a cold!"
Afterwards, the person was hurriedly carried to the Imperial Hospital. However, Ling Jiangshuang failed to leave the palace and was called to Kunning Palace.
Ling Jiangshuang did not show any fear. He glanced at Ni Yueshan and blinked at her.
Qingdie beside her couldn't help but ask, "Princess Chen, where are we now?"
"Come along, we're considered bystanders! One of the witnesses!"
Inside Kunning Palace, the Queen looked at Ling Jiangshuang, who was standing under the prince, feeling very aggrieved. Her expression was calm. At this time, a palace servant came over and said, "Queen, Princess Chen has returned."
The Queen said calmly: "Let someone in!"
Soon, Ni Yueshan walked back in. Ling Jiangshuang seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and quickly said, "Queen, Princess Chen was right there with us at the time. She can testify!"
Before Ni Yueshan walked in, she had already heard Ling Jiangshuang's words.
"Meet the Queen Mother."
"You must have heard what Miss Ling said just now. So, what exactly happened?"
Ni Yueshan spoke without thinking: "At that time, I was walking in front, and I only heard a splash from behind, and then Miss Tai fell into the water..."
"Afterwards, her maid insisted that it was Miss Ling who pushed their young lady, but... I still have a doubt!"
The Queen became interested and asked, "What's your doubt?"
"The pond isn't close to the road we're walking on. Why are Miss Tai and Miss Ling here at the same time?"
Ling Jiangshuang immediately spoke up, "Of course it was Tai Banxue who walked over there on her own! I saw her jump into the water, so I ran over! I'm being wronged! She's trying to frame me!"
If it was really Ling Jiangshuang who pushed the person, then Tai Banxue also walked over on her own initiative?
Tai Banxue had been taken to the Imperial Hospital, but the maid was brought here.
Tai Banxue's maid quickly spoke up, "That's because you said you spilled something on our young lady's face, and she's getting red spots! That's why our young lady quickly ran to the pond nearby and looked in the mirror!"
Ling Jiangshuang showed a surprised expression. "Is that so? Then I'd like to ask, has your young lady developed any red spots on her face? It's not enough to accuse me of pushing her into the water, but you're also accusing me of disfiguring her?"
"This is the Imperial Palace, and the one walking in front of you is Princess Chen. You, a servant, dare to lie in front of the Queen. You are quite courageous!"
What Ling Jiangshuang said seemed reasonable, and the maids were stunned one after another after hearing it.
Then, facing the Queen's position, he spoke pitifully, "Your Majesty, it was really Miss Ling who pushed our young lady. Our young lady has a weak constitution to begin with. How could she jump into the water and frame someone? This is absolutely impossible!"
The Queen saw that one of them firmly denied it and the other insisted that he had seen nothing. Ni Yueshan always insisted that she saw nothing.
The Queen chuckled softly, "I can't tell who is lying among you...but one of you must be lying. Princess Chen, who do you trust more?"
Ni Yueshan raised his eyes to look at the Queen, then at the two kneeling beside them, his face full of confusion. "Mother, I was walking with my back to them at the time. How can I know... who pushed whom, or who jumped in first? I can't say for sure! Please, Mother, make the decision yourself!"
Ni Yueshan's words have made her attitude clear: she wants to stay out of this...
The Queen held her forehead with her hand in pain, and Ling Jiangshuang began to wipe away her tears in grievance: "Your Majesty, I was domineering before, and I once offended Princess Chen. Princess Chen, please don't take this opportunity to frame me now, I am already very grateful. Your Majesty, please let this maid produce evidence, otherwise it will be a false accusation. I want my father to pull out her tongue that is gossiping!"
