Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain
Chapter 246 is about witchcraft
His Royal Highness Prince Gong is now like a mobile refrigerator. The air around him is so cold that people can't help but shiver.
The Queen Mother was filled with relief when she saw her precious grandson, who rarely lost his temper in public.
Over the years, she witnessed how much grievance Xiao Zhan had endured. No matter how sad he was, he always endured it silently and never revealed the slightest emotion.
She couldn't tell the depression in her heart, couldn't release the pain in her body, and couldn't express the anger in her heart. She was really worried that the child would develop a mental illness.
Now that he finally didn't have to suppress his feelings anymore, she felt a lot more relieved.
"What do you mean? The Taoist priest is a great man! How can you be so rude?"
Xiao Li hurriedly pulled Xuan Qing back, frowned, and stared at Xiao Zhan.
"Master? Second brother, you wouldn't really believe this old man just because of a few inexplicable nonsense, right?"
Xiao Zhan glanced at him sideways, his face full of disdain and sarcasm.
"The Taoist priest has his reasons for saying this! For some things, we would rather believe them than not believe them! I am doing this for the sake of my father's health." Xiao Li explained.
"That's right, Grandmother. What my second brother said makes a lot of sense. It's better to believe it than not. The imperial doctors and the folk doctors have not found the cause of my father's coma. This means that the problem may not be with my father himself. Maybe it's really like what the Taoist priest said, it's the work of witchcraft."
Xiao Min stood up and agreed with Xiao Li, not forgetting to glance at Jiang Xue from time to time, with a gloating gleam in his eyes.
"Empress Dowager, you are well aware that the Second Prince has always been respectful to the Emperor. He would never joke about the Emperor's health." The Queen also said.
"Moreover, this witchcraft technique originally originated from Southern Xinjiang. Princess Changle is the legitimate daughter of the Qian Kingdom... this..."
Defei was thoughtful. She mentioned Jiang Xue's identity and background in front of everyone, and once again emphasized her connection with witchcraft.
As a result, most people present began to look at Jiang Xue with wariness and fear.
That's right, Princess Changle is the legitimate daughter of the Qian Kingdom. There is a deep-rooted feud between the Qian Kingdom and Beiling, and everyone present is well aware of this.
It is not impossible that Princess Changle used witchcraft to frame Emperor Beiling.
"Grandmother! Impossible! Sister Changle is an upright person, she would never hurt father!"
Xiao Gui was eager to defend Jiang Xue. She would always remember that it was her fourth sister-in-law who rescued her from the dangers of wolves and tigers! If it weren't for her fourth sister-in-law, she would have been betrothed to the abandoned prince of Beixi by her father, and she wouldn't know how miserable her life would be now!
"Grandmother, my grandson has a deep friendship with Sister Changle. I firmly believe that Sister Changle would never use such despicable means to deal with my father!" Xiao Yun also stood up to speak for Jiang Xue.
The Queen Mother looked at the two parties arguing and found herself in a dilemma.
The Queen Mother certainly trusted Jiang Xue and would not harm anyone, but this was related to the safety of the Emperor. As the mother of a country, she could not protect anyone without knowing the truth! Otherwise, where would the dignity of the royal family be? Where would justice be?
Jiang Xue understood the Queen Mother's difficulties, so she did not cry and beg her to make the decision for her.
She straightened her back, walked to the front of the crowd, and bowed slightly to the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, Changle feels that what His Royal Highness Prince Li said makes sense. Some things really require caution."
When Xiao Li heard this, he turned around and looked at her in surprise.
This bitch is actually agreeing with me?
The queen's expression became a little strange.
This woman didn't say a word to defend herself from beginning to end. If it were any other concubine, she would have knelt down and cried out for injustice. What was she thinking?
Concubine De and Xiao Min looked very proud and could not hide their happiness.
They thought that Jiang Xue must have realized that she was at her wit's end, so she gave in!
The mother and daughter were waiting to see her miserable end and vent their anger!
As for Jun Li, he remained silent from beginning to end, but his face was terribly gloomy!
Xiaoxue, you wouldn't...
He felt uneasy. Jiang Xue was so calm that she was not flustered at all in the face of such accusations. He seemed to see a hint of mockery in her eyes. Could it be that she had seen through Xiao Li's conspiracy and made preparations in advance?
No, it's impossible. They did this extremely secretly, Xiaoxue couldn't have noticed it!
Just when Jun Li was lost in thought, his wandering gaze suddenly met Xiao Zhan's!
That look was like a hunter locking onto his prey, resolute and decisive, yet with a hint of playful coldness.
He is laughing at me! Jun Li understood Xiao Zhan's eyes! His strong self-esteem was hurt by Xiao Zhan's look!
"Xiaoxue, what do you mean?" The Queen Mother was a little confused about what this girl was trying to do.
She should know that King Li is hostile to her, so why should she agree with his views?
"Empress Dowager, Changle feels that what His Royal Highness Prince Li said, 'It is better to believe it than not to believe it,' does make sense. All the famous doctors in Yujing City and all the doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau are here, and they haven't found out why the emperor is in a coma. Perhaps it really is related to witchcraft." Jiang Xue said slowly.
"So, Changle admits that it was you who used witchcraft to harm our father?" Xiao Li hurriedly said.
"Your Highness, Prince Li, you cannot fabricate the names of the people who were involved in the accident. This is a crime that would lead to the extermination of the entire clan. Your Highness, you don't want the people to think that you are a tyrant who acts without any evidence and only based on speculation, right?"
Jiang Xue choked Xiao Li with one sentence, and did not give him a chance to speak again. She turned to Xuan Qing and continued, "Master, you said that I was the one who cast the Gu. Can you show me the evidence?"
Xuan Qing rubbed his hands, turned his head and looked at Xiao Li, and said with a stiff face: "Just now when I opened my eyes, I saw that the thing that cast the poison was hidden in your yard! Do you dare to let someone search your house?"
"Search my house?" Xiao Zhan raised his eyebrows. "Not everyone can search Prince Gong's Mansion. When did a Taoist priest in Jianghu have such power?"
Although he said this in a low voice, each word was like a mountain, one after another pressing down on Xuan Qing until he couldn't breathe.
This Prince Gong is different from Prince Li. Prince Li's ruthlessness is obvious, just like the mace, you can tell whether he is fierce or not at a glance; while this Prince Gong looks gentle and polite, but he is like a soft needle soaked in poison. Xuanqing has no idea what he is thinking.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling guilty, Old Four?" Xiao Li sneered.
"Only those who have done something wrong will feel guilty. My prince and princess are both upright people, so why would they feel guilty?" Xiao Zhan said.
This guy is really good at talking.
Jiang Xue muttered to herself, she knew he was thick-skinned, but she didn't expect him to be so thick-skinned.
The corners of her mouth slightly raised, thinking, it's almost the same to say that they are both treacherous, but she doesn't dare to be honest.
