Shu Jiaying stared with wide eyes at the cup of poisoned wine brought to her by the eunuch. She was considering whether to release the big tiger in her domain space to bite to death these people who could not distinguish right from wrong, when a voice stopped all this.
"Whoever dares to hurt my beloved concubine, do you believe I will immediately kill your entire family?"
Bang!
Hearing Yu Chenfeng's voice, the eunuch was so scared that the whole tray and the wine fell to the ground, and he stepped aside in fear.
Yu Chenfeng ran up at an extremely fast speed and untied the rope on Shu Jiaying and the white cloth that sealed her mouth.
After being able to speak again, Shu Jiaying handed the rabbit to Xiaoxue, then walked over to Zhong Lihua and asked, "You were the one who said I kicked you into the river, right?"
Zhong Lihua nodded.
"Yes, you were the one who kicked me into the pond."
Shu Jiaying looked at Shui'er.
"Did you see it with your own eyes?"
Shui'er lowered her head and said nervously, "I...I saw it with my own eyes."
"Okay! Since you said so, I'm not afraid to admit it, but before that, can you demonstrate how I kicked you into the pond?"
Zhong Lihua didn't know what Shu Jiaying meant, but with Yu Jianxuan present, she naturally acted without restraint.
After getting up from the ground, Zhong Lihua walked to the pond with an aggrieved expression. She was about to act out the scene of being kicked into the pond by Shu Jiaying, but who would have thought that Shu Jiaying actually kicked her in the lower back in full view of everyone.
After kicking Zhong Lihua into the pond, Shu Jiaying clapped her hands and said, "It wasn't me who kicked Concubine Zhong into the pond just now. The kick you see now was the one that did it."
Yu Jianxuan first had Zhong Lihua rescued to shore, then he accused Shu Jiaying, "You... you are so bold! You actually dared to openly murder Concubine Zhong! Come... quickly tie up this wicked woman."
Shu Jiaying sneered at Yu Jianxuan.
"I openly plotted to murder Concubine Zhong? But why didn't you say anything when you openly slandered me just now?"
"When did I ever slander you?"
"Your Majesty, do you remember when Concubine Zhong said I kicked her into the pond? You didn't even give me a chance to explain. You had me tied up, and even the little white rabbit I was holding was taken. I want to ask you, when Concubine Zhong fell into the pond, I was catching rabbits in the grass fifty meters away. How could I have caught rabbits and kicked your beloved concubine into the pond at the same time?"
Xiaoxue added at the right time.
"Your Highness, every word the Princess said is true. I was there at the time and saw everything clearly."
"Um!"
Yu Chenfeng nodded to Xiaoxue, and he looked at Yu Jianxuan with a serious face.
"Your Majesty, do you feel that I am a thorn in your side, so that even in the most difficult times you want to get rid of me as soon as possible?"
"No?"
"Then why did you all team up to frame my princess?"
Speaking of false accusations, Yu Jianxuan immediately retorted, "Even if I didn't understand the situation clearly before and wrongly accused Princess Chen, but just now Princess Chen kicked Concubine Zhong into the pond in front of everyone. Isn't this an ironclad fact?"
Shu Jiaying had long expected Yu Jianxuan to say this. She said with a self-deprecating smile, "Your Majesty, you slandered me before. If my prince hadn't arrived in time, I would have definitely drunk the poison and died in vain.
I kicked Concubine Zhong into the pond to seek justice for the humiliation I had just suffered."
