Jing Chengzhi deliberately leaked the information to him so that he could sabotage Ni Yueshan's plan.
Isn’t this enough to prove that it was not the Imperial Concubine’s wish that Ni Yueshan took Shao Lecheng away?
So Zou Yangyao is fearless!
"Yueshan." Ni Gaofei glanced at Ni Yueshan and asked her to give a reasonable explanation.
Ni Gaofei believed that Ni Yueshan was not a person who would do anything wrong, so he came with Ren Mei.
Ni Yueshan opened his mouth to answer when a servant came over to report, "General, the Fourth Prince is here."
Everyone turned their heads to look, and Jing Chengzhi's handsome figure appeared immediately afterwards.
"Meet the Fourth Prince."
Ni Yueshan frowned. Is he here to cause trouble?
"The General's Mansion is bustling with activity today. Did I come to the right place?"
He asked You Ran, as if he had no idea what was going on.
Yang Wanyan took the initiative to speak, "Fourth Prince, it's just right that you've come. Miss Ni insisted on saying that she was ordered by the Imperial Concubine to take away a flower thief. Did the Imperial Concubine ever give such an order? Perhaps the Fourth Prince knows."
She had a wicked smile on her face, waiting for Ni Yueshan to be exposed.
Jing Chengzhi was a little surprised, "Really?"
He looked at Ni Yueshan, neither directly answering Yang Wanyan's question nor denying that it happened.
So cunning!
Ni Yueshan looked indifferent and not in a hurry.
Zou Yangyao, however, had lost much patience: "Miss Ni, please tell me why the Imperial Concubine brought someone here!"
"You can tell the truth, but the servants must step back and this matter must not be made public."
If I don't come up with a plausible and convincing excuse today, I'm afraid I won't be able to get away with it!
Yang Wanyan looked at Ni Yueshan with disdain. "What can't be said to the servants? Miss Ni, are you being mysterious?"
Ni Yueshan glanced at her coldly. Yang Wanyan felt inexplicably frightened. She swallowed and shook Zou Yangyao's arm: "General, she is just trying to fool people! Does she think we are all fools?"
Ni Gaofei asked coldly, "Aunt Yang, I didn't ask you to leave, so why are you being so mysterious?"
Yang Wanyan was speechless. She didn't dare to contradict Ni Gaofei, so she had to give up.
"This prince is very curious about what Miss Ni's secret is. General, why don't you ask her to leave?" Jing Chengzhi took the initiative to suggest.
Zou Yangyao finally relented: "Everyone, leave."
After the servants left, everyone's eyes fell on Ni Yueshan again, waiting for Ni Yueshan to explain.
If a perfect explanation cannot be given today, the suspicion of collusion between Ni Yueshan and Shao Lecheng will never be cleared.
She might get caught.
Ni Yueshan's expression was serious. She looked at Jing Chengzhi, her eyes slightly narrowed, revealing a hint of danger and warning: "This matter involves privacy, so even if you have heard it, please do not spread it!"
If Jing Chengzhi exposed her, even if it would ruin her reputation and her marriage with Jing Yuchen would be a done deal, she would still save Jing Yuchen.
"A flower thief committed a crime some time ago and abducted a woman. Later, the woman was found by her family, but her innocence was lost."
"But I'm pregnant now, so...this matter must be kept secret and not be made public."
After briefly explaining the matter, the people present felt much clearer. Was it because of this?
But who believes it?
Yang Wanyan looked at Ni Yueshan with disdain. "Why would the Imperial Concubine care about such a matter? Could it be that the woman's family is asking the Imperial Concubine for justice? And why did they ask you to nominate someone? It's full of loopholes!"
What excuse did they make up? It's terrible!
Ni Yueshan didn't seem panicked. She sighed and said with a sympathetic expression, "This person is my friend. She cried to me and that's why I wanted to help her."
"Even if the child's father is a thief, the child is innocent. If the thief is willing to take responsibility, it is equivalent to saving a child, which is also a great merit!"
"I admit that this matter has nothing to do with the Imperial Concubine. I claimed to be the Imperial Concubine because the Fourth Prince gave her a token."
"With the token in hand, it's good to use the Imperial Concubine's authority. After all, no one will question the Imperial Concubine about this matter, right?"
"But General Zou was so aggressive and refused to give in, so the secret was ultimately lost... It was my incompetence!"
Ni Yueshan had a regretful expression on her face. What she said sounded very true, but how many people present believed her?
The lies were very well made.
"As for my friend's name, I can't tell you. What if you tell others about it? Wouldn't that ruin their lives?"
Yang Wanyan frowned and said, "You don't dare to reveal the name because there is no such person!"
Ni Yueshan rolled her eyes at her. "Don't try to provoke me. I won't tell anyone. How can she live her life after she tells them? Are you trying to force me to kill my friend?"
"You..." Yang Wanyan wanted to refute something, but she found that she couldn't refute it.
Jing Chengzhi raised the corner of his mouth slightly. Ni Yueshan has good adaptability?
Zou Yangyao's face turned pale. Just let Ni Yueshan go like that?
impossible!
"You falsely conveyed the Imperial Concubine's orders, making it appear as though she supported a thief. What crime should you be charged with? Do those women deserve to be insulted for nothing just because you're protecting your friend?"
Zou Yangyao stared at Ni Yueshan. Ni Yueshan wanted to rescue people easily?
Delusion!
Ni Gaofei said coldly: "General Zou is right. My daughter has damaged the reputation of the Imperial Concubine, and the Imperial Concubine will punish her. As for the innocence of those women, this flower thief should be arrested."
"But if his temporary escape can save a child's life, there's nothing wrong with it! He can just recapture this flower thief someday!"
After saying that, he looked at Ni Yueshan and said, "You are getting more and more courageous. Come back with me!"
