Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain
Chapter 192 Confused
With a murderous look, everyone immediately fell silent.
"Fifth sister, stop asking for trouble. Just stand aside quietly." Xiao Yan looked at Xiao Min with a mocking smile. He would never allow Xiao Min to make his fiancée unhappy today.
Looking Jiang Xue up and down, she is indeed a stunning beauty. Jun Li was really lucky in the past!
However, this dress was given by Xiao Zhan, which was a bit eye-catching. Why would the fourth brother give Jiang Xue such a gift?
Could it be that he is...
Jiang Xue whispered a few words to Xiao Zhan, who smiled and said, "Coincidentally, I saw this wine glass in the hands of the young lady of the Marquis of Anguo Mansion. Miss Chen, can you explain how this glass flew to Princess Changle?"
Chen Xiner was suddenly called out and she shuddered with fear!
She looked at Xiao Min as if for help, but just like last time, Xiao Min ignored her.
"Maybe Your Highness Prince Gong, you saw it wrong. Xin'er, I really didn't touch the wine glass." Chen Xin'er lowered her head, not daring to look directly into Xiao Zhan's sharp eyes.
"Never touched it?" Xiao Zhan raised his eyebrows and casually instructed Fu Dong: "Am I dazzled? Fu Dong, go and help me take a look at what that red spot on Miss Chen's sleeve is?"
Chen Xiner was shocked when she heard this, and quickly lowered her head to check her cuffs, and indeed found a large red stain! It was obviously accidentally stained when she threw the wine glass.
She hurriedly tried to cover it up, but it was too late. Fu Dong stepped forward, grabbed her wrist tightly, and turned out the stained sleeve, exposing it to everyone.
"It seems that there is no need to trouble the Empress Dowager for her decision. She used the banquet's food and wine privately and deliberately soiled Changle's clothes. Third brother, how should this woman be dealt with?"
Xiao Zhan cleverly threw the hot potato to Xiao Yan. You know, An Guohou is Xiao Li's staunch ally, and no matter how Xiao Yan judges, the conflict between the two sides will escalate.
"This matter was discovered by my fourth brother, so he should handle it."
At present, Xiao Yan's strength is slightly weaker than Xiao Li's, and he does not want to create any trouble at this time.
"Oh, Third Brother has always been highly praised by the Emperor, and he is extremely intelligent, so this little thing is no problem for you. If even this decision has to be made by Fourth Brother, wouldn't it be a disappointment to the Emperor's high hopes for you?
Third brother, don't be so modest, this matter has to be done by you. After all, the dress Princess Changle is wearing is the one I gave her, so I can't help but feel a little dissatisfied with Miss Chen.
Since we have emotions, we cannot be fair. If the Third Brother really lets me make the decision, I am afraid everyone will have objections. "
Xiao Zhan's words were so logical that Xiao Yan had no way to refute them.
With no other options, he could only bite the bullet and take on the task. Anyway, Xiao Li wouldn't be here for a while, so it wasn't a big deal, so Chen Xin'er could just apologize and let it go.
The people present would not say anything for the sake of the royal family. Even if Xiao Li found out later, they were in the wrong and could not blame Xiao Yan.
"Chen Xiner!" After sorting out his thoughts, Xiao Yan glared at her with sharp eyes.
Chen Xiner was so frightened that her knees went weak and she fell to the ground, shaking all over.
"Hurry up and apologize to Princess Changle!"
Chen Xiner looked up at Xiao Yan in disbelief. She was asked to apologize to this southern barbarian woman? When had she ever been wronged like this? Why should she bow her head and apologize?
"It seems that Miss Chen is not happy." Jiang Xue shook her head gently, looking pitiful: "Alas, since Changle came to Beiling, Miss Chen has repeatedly made things difficult for me.
In the past, I could have been whipped in private, since no one would know about it. But today, I don't know how I offended Miss Chen. I poured wine in public and touched the royal wine and food without permission. If it was an ordinary banquet, it would be fine, but it had to be the Queen Mother's birthday banquet!
The Queen Mother has been very kind to me. I wanted to add joy to her birthday party, but it got off to a bad start because of me. I feel really guilty about that!"
These moving words made everyone present recall the scene at the Plum Blossom Banquet, when Jiang Xue was beaten to a pulp by Chen Xiner.
When everyone saw Jiang Xue's pitiful appearance, they all stood up to speak for her. The scene was like a warm support meeting.
"Princess Changle, this is not your fault, don't take it to heart!"
"Yes, Miss Chen, this is too much. How can you bully a girl like this?"
"How dare the daughter of the Anguo Marquis's mansion bully the princess! Didn't the emperor say that hostages should not act recklessly? Chen Xiner even dared to disobey the emperor's order!"
This time, the matter has become a big deal! From a small incident involving drinking, it has escalated to disobeying the emperor's orders, with each charge becoming more serious than the last.
Jiang Xue's eyes flickered slightly under her sleeves. Chen Xiner, oh Chen Xiner, this time you can't just apologize and let it go.
Chen Xiner was shocked and angry when facing the criticism from everyone. How could the mistake of a glass of wine be regarded as disobeying the imperial order?
"Jiang Xue, stop talking nonsense, you barbarian girl! Even if I splashed you, so what? How can you say you are disobeying my order? You are just a hostage, the princess of Ji State. Ji State has changed a lot!"
Chen Xiner spoke too quickly and got so angry that she blurted out everything without caring about anything!
As soon as the words fell, the whole place was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. This daughter of the Chen family was so bold and rude! She was talking about the Princess of Ji in front of Princess Changle!
Jiang Xue appeared calm on the surface, but her heart was in turmoil. Her chest moved slightly, anger welled up; she clenched her fists in her sleeves, trying to hold back.
Xiao Zhan was so close that he could feel her rage. He sighed and put his arm around her shoulder, "Changle, your clothes are dirty. Ask the maid to bring you new ones. Ninth sister is here too. She brought some extra clothes that are similar in size and will fit you well."
Xiao Gui arrived upon hearing the sound, pulled Jiang Xue aside and whispered softly, "Sister Changle, let's go."
Just like that, she was taken away from the vortex of right and wrong.
"Third brother, the daughter of the Chen family has spoken rudely and violated her superiors. This is in public. You must discipline her and don't let the royal family lose face."
Xiao Zhan shifted his gaze to Xiao Yan, pointing at Chen Xiner, and deliberately emphasized "Miss Chen", reminding her that her identity as a princess was a thing of the past and she should stop dreaming about it.
"That's right. Chen Xin'er didn't know how to talk properly, didn't understand the situation, and even dared to disobey the emperor's order. These crimes are no joke."
Xiao Yan glanced at Chen Xiner coldly. This girl really didn't know the seriousness of the matter. If she had just apologized casually, the matter would have been over. Xiao Li wouldn't have cared too much if he knew about it. But now, it has become a big deal.
It would be unreasonable if I don't teach her a lesson! But if I do this, Xiao Li will definitely bear a grudge, and troubles will be waiting for me in the future!
Thinking of the headache that Xiao Li was about to bring, Xiao Yan became confused and all his anger was directed at Chen Xiner.
"Order! Chen Xiner of the Marquis of Anguo Mansion took the wine from the birthday banquet without permission, was disrespectful to the Imperial Grandmother, committed insubordination, and contradicted Princess Changle. She is punished with fifteen strokes of the cane! Execute immediately!"
"Yes!" The palace servants responded and were about to hold Chen Xiner down when they heard a roar: "Who dares to touch her!"
