Li Xinran raised her eyes to look at Mu Pingcheng, with those eyes that seemed to bite people, she forced a smile and said: "There were so many people coming and going, I only heard two girls discussing that there was a lotus in the pool."

Mu Pingcheng nodded: "But as far as I know, this Bingtilian was only opened in these two days, and because the banquet has not started yet, all the ladies and ladies are next to the main hall." As he said that, he pointed to the little maid in pink, "Let me ask you, when Miss Gongsun went to the green pond, was there anyone around?"

The little maid in pink stood up and said, "Mr. Hui, no, Miss Gongsun was the only one by the pool at that time."

Mu Pingcheng turned to look at Li Xinran: "I dare to ask Miss Li, since you heard someone say that the lotus flowers bloomed by the pool, then more than one person must have seen such a wonderful sight, why is there no one by the pool?"

Li Xinran was about to open her mouth to refute, but suddenly a thought came to her mind, no!Mu Pingcheng did it on purpose. He just deliberately pulled me into the context of his words.

Li Xinran had just composed herself when Peng Qiongyu spoke impatiently: "If others don't go, how will Xinran know what questions you, a scholar, are asking."

"Okay! It's true that you are harming my Rou'er!" Qi suddenly slapped the table and stood up.

"What are you doing!" Peng Qiongyu stood up and stopped in front of Li Xinran.

Mrs. Qi pointed at Mu Pingcheng with a trembling hand and said to Peng Qiongyu: "Mr. Mu, tell me, I, Rou'er, was the only one there, and no one saw what happened to Na Bing Ti Lian. Who knows where she learned about Na Bing Ti Lian?" , and then come to cause my Rouer to fall into the water!"

"Mrs. Gongsun, don't make unreasonable troubles here! How could Xinran know in advance that the royal palace near the town is blooming with lotus flowers!" Peng Qiongyu argued hard and refused to give in.

"Mrs. Li! What did you say?" Mrs. Qi did not argue with Peng Qiongyu, but turned to look at Ms. Jiang and asked aggressively.

"This matter..." Jiang was silent for a moment, "There is indeed some doubt."

"Foster mother!" As soon as Peng Qiongyu said it, Jiang clenched his back molars and turned to look at Li Xinran: "You evil beast, since you are the cause of the trouble, then you go and solve it, your father and General Gongsun We are colleagues, and our two families are related by marriage. If you hurt our feelings because of you, I will not forgive you!"

Li Xinran watched the farce calmly, sighed, glanced at Mu Pingcheng, then looked at Qi and said, "What does Mrs. Gongsun mean?"

"Xinran, you..." Peng Qiongyu turned to look at her, with disbelief and worry in his eyes.Li Xinran didn't look at him, but looked at Qi.

Mrs. Qi stared at her fiercely: "You caused me, Rou'er, to fall into the water and lose my reputation. I want you to bear the thorn and apologize, and kowtow step by step to my door to apologize to my daughter."

Before Li Xinran was born, Gongsun Yue spoke: "Madam, come back." Then he looked at Li Xinran, sighed, and said sincerely, "Don't blame Xinran, your aunt Gongsun also loves her daughter very much. She lost her sense of proportion. How can I do that?" Let you, a little girl, kowtow step by step and go to our house to plead guilty. Since you are responsible for this, then my Gongsun family needs an apology and compensation, which is not excessive."

After saying that, Gongsun Yue sighed again, like an old father who was heartbroken for his daughter.

"It's not too much," Ms. Zhang said with a sneer, "For such a vicious-hearted woman, General Gongsun just asked her to apologize, so it's certainly not too much."

"Okay..." Li Xinran just started, but was interrupted by Mu Pingcheng hastily: "Wait a minute..."

"Mr. Mu!" As soon as he spoke, he was interrupted by Li Xinran, "May I ask who Mr. Mu represents when he speaks this time?"

"Of course it's the Prince of Zhenbian."

"Then what does it have to do with Prince Zhenbian at this time? Even in court, Prince Zhenbian is the judge, not a party, isn't he?"

Mu Pingcheng pursed his lips, blaming him for not having enough time to understand Qi's temperament and why the wife, who was supposed to be calm and self-possessed, could get angry so easily.

After a moment of silence, Mu Pingcheng had to admit that Li Xinran was right: "Miss Li...is right."

Li Xinran smiled: "Since Mr. Mu also thinks what I said below is true, then the matter is very clear. The Gongsun family claims that I harmed Miss Gongsun and has proposed ways to ask me to compensate. I can apologize, or even I apologize, but all this is based on the premise that I did harm Miss Gongsun."

Li Xinran brushed off Peng Qiongyu's hand and walked in. His big clear eyes stared straight at Qi, making Qi feel a little scared.

"May I ask Madam Gongsun, why did you convict me?"

"Do you still have to ask?" Mrs. Qi shouted, "Mr. Mu has already said that no one has heard about the Bingdilian, but you heard about it, and then used it to seduce my Rou'er to the edge of the pool and cause her to fall into the water. "

"I invited Gongsun Rou to see the flowers by the pool, but she had a stomachache and left halfway. I told you just now that when I asked Miss Gongsun if she needed to wait for me, she refused. As for what Mr. Mu said about no one, it has nothing to do with me. There is no one at the pool. How did I get Miss Gongsun into the water? Is it possible that I can't fly?" Li Xinran sneered.

"I just went to see the place where Miss Gongsun fell into the water below. The stone on the edge of the pool is loose, and this stone happens to be closest to Bingtilian." Mu Pingcheng coughed twice.

Li Xinran tilted his head slightly: "What do you mean, Mr. Mu?"

"Did you, you little bitch, loosen the masonry stone and trick my Rou'er into going there, step on the masonry stone, and then let her fall down!" Ms. Qi stared angrily.

"Since Mrs. Gongsun doubts me, please invite a skilled craftsman or a police officer to come and verify whether the stone masonry was intentionally damaged." Li Xinran's spine straightened, feeling guilty.

Mu Pingcheng squinted at Li Xinran for a while, then waved his hand: "Here comes..."

"Slow down!" Li Xinran stopped Mu Pingcheng, "You send one person, and I send one person, and let the two of them decide which craftsman to go to."

Mu Pingcheng narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Miss Li, don't you believe me?"

"Nonsense," the disdain on Li Xinran's face was visible to the naked eye, "I said I would send my people to find the craftsmen, will you allow it? If so, I will send my people to find them."

Just when Mu Pingcheng was about to agree, Qi interrupted angrily:

"That won't work!" Ms. Qi glared at Li Xinran, "If the person you are looking for is bribed by you, then we, Rou'er, will suffer a loss!"

"So," Li Xinran said with a smile, "Since you think I can bribe people, I will naturally worry about you framing me."

"Xinran!" Ms. Jiang scolded, "How can you talk!"

"I'm not wrong. Originally, this matter had nothing to do with me from beginning to end. It was her Gongsun Rou who framed her. As a result, I will be interrogated by you here like a prisoner. Since you can rely on just one sentence to If you want to accuse me of offending, then I can’t let it go!”

Li Xinran's words were sonorous and powerful, and she did not give in.

"You!" Ms. Jiang only felt that she had been humiliated, and looked at Li Xinran but hesitated to speak.
