779 Accusations From Both Parties
As soon as he said this, everyone present agreed.
Someone who supported Wang Xilan said, âYoung Master Wangâs words are reasonable. On the contrary, we suspect Lord Ning Caichen of being jealous and framing Madam Liuâer.â
âThatâs right. Madam Liuâer has always been diligent and conscientious. She takes care of all kinds of things very well and has a very gentle personality!â
This time, someone else spoke. The person who spoke was a short, thin man with fair skin, but his words were obviously filled with flattery.
âIn my opinion, we canât let the scoundrel succeed, so we must not find a doctor. We have to believe in Madam Liuâer!â
Another slightly fatter lady spoke up, and her words were completely criticizing Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows.
a scoundrel? Was that what he was now?
What good would it do for him to frame Liuâer Yuanyuan? Liuâer Yuanyuan was a relative of the royal family!
These people were really good at trying to butter up to authority. Would they be this stupid in the face of death?
âWhatâs there to be proud of? We donât care about whatever Madam Liuâer may have!â
Liang Sisi was unhappy and shouted at those people.
âWhat are you saying? Who do you think you are? Youâre dressed sloppily, and you look like a commoner. How could you not be interested in everything Liuâer Yuanyuan has?â
The lady who had called Jiang Ming a scoundrel started shouting again. She made Liang Sisi so angry that her face turned red.
âBelieve it or not, Iâll tear your fancy clothes to shreds!â
Liang Sisi roared at the lady, her eyes filled with anger.
At this moment, Liang Sisi was still disguised as a man. When she heard Liang Sisi say this, the lady hurriedly hugged herself and shouted, âSomeone, this person wants to attack me! Hurry up and chase this person out!â
Hearing this, the other young ladies felt that they might be targeted as well. They also retreated one after another.
Liang Sisi was about to go crazy when she saw the ladies like this.
She just wanted to scare that lady. Why were the other people scared?
âYoung master, please leave the tea party. Donât cause panic.â
Liuâer Yuanyuan could not wait for Jiang Mingâs companions to leave, so she immediately ordered them to do so.
âDo you really want to chase us away?â
Liang Sisiâs expression was calm as she made her decision.
This was the only way to punish Liuâer Yuanyuan.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Ming pressed down Liang Sisiâs hand and looked at Liuâer Yuanyuan. âWe really donât suit the atmosphere of the tea party. Weâll leave now.â
He had already clearly seen the vile faces of these people who had attended the tea party. They were showing off their fawning faces in front of everyone. He had no need to save their lives.
âWait! Who knows if you were the one who poisoned the pastry? The silver needle turned black just now.â
Liuâer Yuanyuan chased after the two of them and did not let them go. She looked like she wanted Jiang Ming and Liang Sisi to take the blame.
Jiang Ming smiled. âThen you can get fresh pastries. Canât the people of the famous Liuâer family even afford fresh pastries?â
âRight? The Liuâer family is so poor!â
Liang Sisi shouted from the side.
Anyway, she was going to leave with Jiang Ming. What did it matter? She had to infuriate Liuâer Yuanyuan so that she would embarrass herself.
Liuâer Yuanyuan was indeed furious. Her head felt like it was about to explode. She wanted to strangle Liang Sisi.
This was clearly a man, but he was acting like a woman. He was extremely clever and had a sharp tongue!
It was obvious she had not seen through Liang Sisiâs disguise.
She did not know where Liang Sisi came from. If she knew, she would definitely get her revenge.
âWhat nonsense is this young man talking about? The Liuâer family will definitely be able to afford fresh pastries. However, the two young men here poisoned these pastries. How can we resolve this matter?â
Liuâer Yuanyuan continued to speak, secretly pleased.
She wanted to see how the two of them could escape responsibility.
She believed that when it was confirmed that Ning Caichen poisoned the pastries, her daughter would not want him to be her husband.
Meanwhile, Madam Zhenguo remained silent.
On one side was her good friend, Liuâer Yuanyuan, and on the other side were her two new friends, Ning Caichen and Liang Sisi. She did not want to offend either side.
However, what puzzled her was that Liang Sisi seemed to care a lot about her appearance. Men usually did not care much about their appearance.
This was a strange phenomenon.
Liang Sisi did not know about Madam Zhenguoâs confusion and tried to help Jiang Ming. âMadam Liuâer Yuanyuan, youâre slandering us. How could we poison the pastries?â
âWhether it is true or not, we will know when we call the doctor. Since you are not willing to believe the doctor I found, then according to what you said, let Madam Zhenguo send someone to find the doctor.â
Liuâer Yuanyuan finally let go. She was secretly laughing in her heart.
These two could be her scapegoats.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ming suddenly understood everything.
Liuâer Yuanyuan was using him and Liang Sisi as scapegoats. Moreover, these pastries were poisonous.
When the doctor came over, Liuâer Yuanyuan would confirm their crimes.
Liang Sisi had the same thoughts as Jiang Ming. She was infuriated. She said to Liuâer Yuanyuan, âMrs. Liuâer, if you were the one who poisoned the pastries, wouldnât we have to take the blame for you? Do you really think weâre idiots?â
She wished she could go up and smack Liuâer Yuanyuan.
If she had known earlier, she would not have agreed to Madam Zhenguoâs invitation.
This tea party was obviously a trap set up for them, and now Ning Caichen was involved. She really regretted it.
At this moment, Liuâer Yuanyuan feigned innocence. âIs your hearing bad? The people at the tea party said that I would never have poisoned them. I had no motive to do so.â
Liang Sisi laughed in anger, but she did not know how to explain herself.
Now that Liuâer Yuanyuan had made a counter-accusation, they were obviously in a pinch.
Moreover, Liuâer Yuanyuan clearly wanted to frame them.
âThereâs no need for us to poison the pastries. We have enough money to buy this kingdom. Why would we need to commit petty crimes?â
Jiang Ming thought for a moment and explained to Liuâer Yuanyuan and the others.
Liang Sisi immediately added, âThatâs right, thatâs right. We have no grudges against the people of this tea party at all. Thereâs no reason for us to treat these young ladies and young masters like this. Youâre mistaken.â
Liuâer Yuanyuan laughed mockingly. âWho knows whether youâre jealous of us or not? I think you should just admit to your crimes. I can still spare you on account of being Madam Zhenguoâs friend and not report you to the king. If I report this to the king, things wonât be so simple.â
