Chapter 325 She's Finished
Zhan Chuyue raised her heroic eyebrows and said bluntly, "I pretended not to know on purpose because I wanted to see how Miss Wei would argue and then expose her."
Everyone: “…”
This is too damaging!
"Seventh Princess, why do you want to wrongly accuse me?" Wei Zishan's face was instantly filled with tears. She looked so pitiful and aggrieved, which made people feel distressed.
She hated it so much!
It turned out to be Zhan Chuyue. If she hadn't appeared, the person lying with her must have been Jiang Huai!
"You know in your heart whether this princess has wronged you. I can swear an oath in front of my father, but do you dare to swear an oath with the Cheng'en Marquisate and the Empress?" Zhan Chuyue said fiercely.
How dare you be so immoral to think about Jiang Huai!
Don't even look in the mirror!
Wei Zishan was frightened by her words, and her heart trembled. How could she dare to swear a poisonous oath to her aunt on the Cheng'en Marquisate? After all, she did enter the room by herself.
"Zishan, what's going on?" The queen looked at her coldly.
"Aunt, I, I..." Wei Zishan started crying as she spoke, her heart filled with sadness. She was not a fool and she knew very well that she had been abandoned.
She had to bear all the responsibilities by herself, otherwise her aunt would be implicated, and then her cousin would be implicated, and finally the Cheng'en Marquisate would be implicated.
She had to sacrifice for her family.
But she really didn't want to accept it.
Wei Zixuan walked to the bedside, "Zishan, you are so confused. A few days ago you told me that you liked Jiang Huai and that you would marry him soon. Were you planning tonight?"
After saying that, she winked at her helplessly.
She didn't expect the Seventh Princess to come back and tell Jiang Huai that she knew everything. Now she couldn't protect her anymore and could only push her out.
Wei Zishan's tears flowed like beads from a broken string and she cried until she was out of breath.
She's finished.
She was really finished.
Suddenly, the man on the bed woke up. When he saw the people, he was so scared that he quickly rolled off the bed and knelt on the ground, trembling and not daring to say a word.
"I bribed the guard to bring Jiang Huai here. I wanted everyone to see us together. I wanted him to marry me." Wei Zishan said with despair in her heart.
In order not to implicate her family, she has to take on everything.
As long as my aunt and the Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion are doing well, sooner or later, they will take care of Jiang Nanjiao and the others.
"You are so confused. If you want to marry Jiang Huai, you can tell me. Why do you want to do such a stupid thing?" The Queen said angrily with a look of heartache on her face.
Nan Jiao looked at the Queen and couldn't help but say that her acting was really good.
Wei Zishan knew she had no way out, so she had to admit it.
"Jiang Huai doesn't like me, and I was afraid that he wouldn't agree, so I did this. Aunt, I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong." Wei Zishan said with tears streaming down her face.
Zhan Chuyue sneered: "Second Miss Wei, I guess you have other accomplices. Master Jiang and I have examined the guards, and he said that someone threatened him with his private affairs."
"He had no choice but to agree, but he had never seen her face before. From the sound of her voice, he knew she was older, not a young woman."
She knew that Wei Zishan took all the responsibility.
If this incident alone cannot bring down the queen, then another person close to her will have to be sacrificed.
Plop.
A maid from Yongfu Palace, dressed in palace clothes, was kneeling on the ground.
"Your Majesty, I was foolish. Something happened at home. When Miss Wei came to me with money, I agreed and then I found Guard Fang."
Nanny Hua lowered her head and said this in a self-reproachful manner.
"Madam Hua, you, how could you do this!" Madam Yao said sternly with a cold face, but her heart sank. The Seventh Princess was really scheming.
With just one sentence, the Empress lost someone by her side.
"Your Majesty, I deserve to die. I will commit suicide now to plead guilty." After saying this, Nanny Hua was about to stand up and bang her head against the wall.
Zhan Chuyue kicked her to the ground and said coldly, "On such a happy day as New Year's Eve, you dare to stain the palace with blood. Do you want to be exterminated with your entire clan?"
"Seventh Princess, that's not what I meant. I am willing to accept your decision." Nanny Hua was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat. She just wanted to plead guilty.
I didn’t think about it that much.
If her entire clan is exterminated, what's the point of what she's doing now?
If she came out to take the blame, at least the Queen Mother would make arrangements for her family.
Nan Jiao looked at the others present, "Miss Wei Er admitted her plot. You are all speechless. Why don't you just mock and scold her?"
Everyone looked embarrassed and uncomfortable, and wished they could find a hole to crawl into.
The queen is here.
How do they curse?
Mu Yuanyuan looked at Yao expressionlessly and said with a sneer, "Madam Prime Minister, you are a talkative person, why don't you scold Miss Wei?"
Nan Jiao didn't tell her what happened when she was caught in the act, but from what happened just now, she knew how wronged and innocent she was at the time, but these ladies did not let her go.
Yao moved her lips, but for a moment she couldn't find any words to refute, after all, they were the ones who were at fault.
Nan Jiao looked at Wei Zixuan and said, "Princess Yu, why don't you teach your sister a lesson? Is this the kind of family education you have in the Cheng'en Marquisate?"
"Don't worry, Princess Jin. I will teach her a lesson when we return." Wei Zixuan gritted her teeth secretly. She was very angry but she couldn't refute.
"Princess Jin, Zishan did something wrong because she was bravely pursuing love. You don't have to..." Zhan Yao said angrily.
The queen looked at her with a tense face and said sternly, "Shut up. She was wrong and she should be scolded and punished. No one can plead for her."
Zhan Yao met her warning look, bit her beautiful red lips, and had to shut up.
Wei Zishan sat there paralyzed, her pale face full of tears. Her aunt had completely given up on her, but she could only remain silent and say nothing.
"Prince Jin, Princess Jin, how do you want to punish the second young lady Wei?" the Queen looked at them and asked.
"We should tell our father about this and let him decide." Nan Jiao said. The incident happened in the imperial palace, so she naturally had no right to decide on the specific punishment.
Otherwise it would be an overstepping of authority.
The queen pursed her lips, and a cold light flashed across her eyes. Was she deliberately trying to make the matter known to everyone?
…
Lu Garden.
After hearing the whole story, Emperor Jingming was filled with anger.
"Second Miss Wei, you bribed the maids in the harem, threatened the royal guards, and attempted to destroy Jiang Huai's innocence. Do you know your crime?"
"I know my crime and I know I was wrong. I will never dare to do it again." Wei Zishan knelt on the ground, shaking her body and crying in pain.
She regretted it.
If she had known earlier, shouldn't she...have refused to agree?
She is the second daughter of the Cheng'en Marquisate and her status seems noble, but does she have a choice?
She had no choice!
Suddenly, her heart was filled with sadness. She hated Jiang Nanjiao and Zhan Chuyue. They were the ones who ruined her.
Mrs. Cui, wife of Marquis Cheng'en, almost fainted from crying at her seat. She was still dazed and could not accept what happened tonight at all.
Wei Zhenchuan walked out of his seat and knelt down beside Wei Zishan. "Your Majesty, I will definitely discipline her. Please be merciful because my father has protected you."
"Father, I cannot show you mercy!" Zhan Chuyue stood up and said.
"Then what do you think should be the punishment?" Emperor Jingming breathed a sigh of relief. He was in a dilemma. After all, when he was assassinated during his incognito visit, it was indeed Master Wei who blocked the sword for him.
