The current situation is the fate of both of them.

"Sister, you originally had good cards, but you turned them into bad cards."

Jiang Wan and Prince Wei stood outside without saying a word, and the uneasy little maid standing behind them was Xiao He who had been bribed twice.

"So, it was you who instigated the prince? You really have a great plan. You actually played us around."

Chu Ji sneered. She didn't expect that when the door behind her was opened, Prince Wei, who was supposed to be handling official business in the study, appeared in front of her.

Following behind him was the woman who openly confronted him at the Hundred Flowers Banquet that day.

What Chu Ji cared more about was Xiao He behind them.

What I said just now was vague, and Xiao Yun can't do anything to me unless he can produce evidence.

Xiao Yun was lying on the couch and saw that Prince Wei really appeared as Jiang Wan said.

What Jiang Wan said to me was indeed true.

Xiao Yun finally understood how Jiang Wan had turned a bad hand into a good one now.

She has that strength.

No one in Jiang Wan's husband's family likes her, not to mention that both her parents have passed away, and the second wife basically controls the family.

No one thought there was anything good in marrying her, and everyone even thought that Jiang Wan was marrying above her station. Before she married Fu Yan, no one in Beijing knew her name.

Rumor has it that not only the two elders of the Fu family dislike Jiang Wan, the new bride.

Even Fu Yan was extremely disgusted with the bride.

At the Hundred Flowers Banquet, the previously widely circulated rumors were dispelled.

If Fu Yan really disliked it, he might even be extremely disgusted with it.

How could he condescend to serve the food to Jiang Wan?

Just talking about today's plot against Chu Ji, Xiao Yun admires Jiang Wan.

She seemed to have anticipated everything.

But Xiao Yun was also confused as to why Jiang Wan seemed to know it in advance.

"Prince..." Chu Ji quickly stopped mocking Xiao Yun.

She imagined going to Wei Ze as usual, and bossing Xiao Yun around.

But now...

The look that Prince Wei was fixated on her seemed like he was looking at the last maid who had said something bad about Xiao Yun and angered him.

That was the look of one staring at a dying thing.

"Prince...it was my fault. I shouldn't have come to disturb the princess's recuperation...Please forgive me, Prince."

Chu Ji first knelt in front of Wei Ze to show her weakness to him.

Seeing Prince Wei standing there, the aura around him made people tremble with fear, like a raging wind before a rainstorm that could blow people down.

Chu Ji was terrified and had to divert the prince's attention immediately.

Then his eyes moved and immediately pointed to Xiao Yun, who was lying on the bed without saying a word.

"Yes...it was the Princess who asked me...to let her meet Master Wen. I have already told her not to do anything that would let the Prince down..."

Before Chu Ji could finish her lie.

Jiang Wan sneered softly.

She turned sideways and glanced at Xiao He behind her.

Xiao He understood what she meant and immediately stepped forward to point out Chu Ji who was kneeling on the ground.

He looked at the Prince of Wei beside him and spoke in a firm and powerful voice:

"Your Highness, it was Chu Ji who asked me to tell you about the private correspondence between the princess and Master Wen! I served the princess and never saw her accept Master Wen's letter! It was clearly Chu Ji who accepted it without permission to slander the princess! I was blinded by greed and bribed such a villain for a few taels of silver!"

Xiao He knelt on the ground, begging for mercy and crying, and she seemed to be truly repentant.

Ha, it's funny that she is only doing it for money this time.

If it weren't for Jiang Wan's promise to her, Xiao He would never have told the truth.

People like Xiao He can be bribed with money once, and there will be a second and third time.

But she cared more about her own life.

Chu Ji had taken this into consideration before she bribed Xiao He.

She expected that if Xiao He really helped her get things done, then they would be in the same boat as her.

But she never thought that there was someone who could not only save her life, but also give her money and power.

No servant can resist the temptation of being a master.

Especially someone as greedy as Xiaohe.

"Bitch! How dare you slander me like this!" Chu Ji stood up, grabbed Xiao He by the collar and slapped her!

With a snap, Xiao He covered her face and cried.

"Your Majesty, I know what I said is true! I can even show you the silver bracelet that Chu Ji gave me when she bribed me!"

After saying this, Xiao He took out a silver bracelet from her sleeve pocket and handed it to Prince Wei.

Chu Ji was just a little maid at that time, and her monthly salary was no more than Xiao He's.

If you want Xiao He to do something that could cost her life, you naturally have to come up with something real.

The silver bracelet was from the dowry her family had saved for her.

Her name is also engraved on the inside.

At the time, I thought that I would be the master soon, and I would have more gold and silver jewellery than I can ever use, so why would I need this silver bracelet?

She also thought that even if she gave the bracelet to Xiao He, she would definitely find a way to pawn it for money within half a day.

I didn't expect she would stay until now.

But Chu Ji guessed wrong here. The bracelet was made by Jiang Wan temporarily.

The money that Chu Ji had given to Xiao He had already been pawned by Xiao He in exchange for money.

Speaking of the sudden death of Princess Weijun due to illness, Chu Ji and Xiao He were also responsible.

Prince Wei could not bear the fact that Xiao Yun died of illness, so he investigated it personally. At that time, Fu Yan assisted Prince Wei in the investigation, and Wen Conglin was also implicated.

On the day the case was closed, Jiang Wan, as Fu Yan's wife, also went to see it.

This silver bracelet was an ID. She glanced at it from a distance and could not remember its detailed appearance, but she remembered its general outline.

Chu Ji was so flustered at this moment that she didn't have time to tell whether the bracelet was fake or not.
