Chapter 38: Pretending to be innocent
Shao Yunqing hesitated for a long time, and after saying goodbye to Xin Yan, he still walked towards Shao Yunwan under everyone's eyes.
She is also a young lady from Shao Mansion, not to mention that she doesn't know anyone here.
As soon as she approached Shao Yunwan, she nervously called out to the second sister.
Shao Yunwan changed her previous appearance of opening her teeth and dancing claws, and said with concern on her face: "Third sister, you were not feeling well before, are you feeling better now?" ”
Shao Yunqing was confused, she was in good health, and there was nothing uncomfortable.
"Second sister, I don't have a body that doesn't ......"
Before he finished speaking, Shao Yunwan planned it.
"Third sister, I know you complain that the second sister doesn't accompany you, but today is the banquet organized by the queen mother herself, and we must come, you are still young and willful, but the second sister can't ignore the face of Shao Mansion like you."
Shao Yunqing was very confused when she heard this, and said anxiously: "Second sister, what are you talking about?" It's because the carriage broke down......"
Shao Yunwan stepped forward and held Shao Yunqing's hand, and said sincerely: "Second sister knows, because the carriage is broken, you are in a bad mood, but you shouldn't be so willful next time." If the queen is to blame, Daddy can't protect you. ”
The words are completely worried about my sister's good sister.。
Shao Yunqing felt that the eyes of the people around her were a little strange, and she was anxious to explain:
"No, no. Second sister, didn't you say you were going to tell your father that you wanted to ......"
"Okay, okay, let's stop talking about it, just come now. The dinner hasn't started yet, don't worry, I won't tell anyone about it, and Sister Cheng will keep it secret for you. ”
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Cheng Yi with a smile.
The latter looked at Shao Yunqing with disdain.
Shao Yunqing was in a hurry, and pulled out her hand vigorously, wanting to explain to others, but Shao Yunwan was shocked by her action and took a few steps back. She looked at Shao Yunqing blankly and said:
"Third sister, why are you pushing me? Did the second sister just say something that upset you? ”
This time, Shao Yunqing was stunned, she didn't use much strength just now.
Cheng Yi held Shao Yunwan, turned his head to Shao Yunqing and said, "Your second sister is kind enough to help you cover up, is this how you treat her?" It's really capricious, no wonder the queen's banquet can come when you want, and leave when you want. ”
Shao Yunqing didn't know how to explain, so he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, I don't." I didn't push the second sister, and I didn't stop coming to the dinner, but the carriage broke down just now, and the second sister said that she was going to find her father......"
"Sister Cheng, don't blame the third sister, she was just in a hurry, she didn't mean to push me, don't blame her."
This seems to be explaining to Shao Yunqing, but it confirms that she pushed her sister.
Taohong couldn't bear to be wronged by her own miss, and retorted: "Second Miss, my young lady didn't push you at all just now, and you couldn't stand on your own feet." ”
Shao Yunwan was surprised: "What are you talking about, Taohong, you can't just pour dirty water on me in order to help the third sister." Do you mean that I framed the third sister? ”
Cheng Yi smiled shamefully: "The master is talking here, what is the matter with you, the maid." I don't know how to discipline you, a slave who doesn't know how to be respected? ”
Then he raised his hand and brushed the hair on his face behind his ears, looked at Shao Yunqing with a sneer, and said: "Also, what kind of master raises what kind of slave, the master is willful and reckless, and the slave is naturally not much better." ”
Shao Yunqing waved his hand and said, "No, Sister Cheng, Taohong is just anxious about me, and she is in a hurry, so she didn't mean to contradict you." ”
"Enough, I can't afford to be your sister, your own sister protects you all day long, but you don't know how to be grateful at all, and let a slave contradict her, what face do you have to appear here? If it weren't for your sister's face, I would have talked so much to you? I think your sister is more like the concubine of Shaofu than you, you, don't come out and be embarrassed in the future, save your sister from helping you deal with the aftermath, and be wronged by you. ”
Hearing these words, Shao Yunqing's face turned pale, and his lips bit lightly, as if he wanted to explain, but he didn't know where to start, so he could only cry and say, "I didn't, I didn't—"
However, it is just that I don't have it, and such an explanation is weak and weak, and no one believes it.
Peach also blushed, she wanted to help the young lady, but she didn't dare to speak easily, for fear of helping again.
Shao Yunwan was still adding fuel and vinegar to the side: "Third sister, don't cry, isn't your crying like Sister Cheng is bullying you?" She's just worried about me, not about you. ”
As soon as Shao Yunqing heard Shao Yunwan say this, she immediately received Cheng Yi's eye knife, and she was scared in her heart.
Sure enough, Cheng Yi said angrily: "I am considered a long insight today, Shao Yunqing, you are bullying your sister at home?" If you don't say a few words, you want to win the sympathy of others, or do you want people to think that we are bullying you? I advise you to put away this little bit of caution, or I will give you a taste of what it feels like to cry. ”
Shao Yunqing didn't dare to make a sound for a moment, and the whole person trembled like a sieve.
The people around them had long been attracted by their voices, listening to their conversations word for word, whispering to each other, and their eyes drifted here from time to time, looking at them at a glance.
Cheng Yi seemed to hear others discussing them, and saw that many people were looking at them, and she was angry in her heart, feeling that Shao Yunqing was deliberately trying to make people think that they were bullying her, okay, then I will let you pretend to be weak as you want.
"Today, I will let you know what happens if you pretend to be innocent and wronged people."
After speaking, she raised her arm to slap Shao Yunqing, Shao Yunwan didn't expect it, but she was secretly happy in her heart, this slap went down, and saw if Shao Yunqing would have a face at the banquet in the future.
The people around them held their breath, they didn't expect Cheng Yi to do it, after all, this is the imperial garden, it is the palace, and they shouldn't do it anyway.
Cheng Yi also thought of it, but she couldn't help it impulsively, and even remembered that the concubine in the house was pretending to be weak like this, every time she made her look like a bad person, Shao Yunqing's appearance was very overlapping with that concubine, and her anger rose from three points to seven points, and she had already slapped her when she came back to her senses.
Shao Yunqing closed his eyes in fear, and the expected pain did not come, but he heard a cold voice.
"Miss Cheng, it doesn't seem good to beat someone."
Everyone's eyes were focused on Xin Yan, but the three of them were too loud just now, so people didn't notice Xin Yan.
At this time, she didn't know what appeared next to Shao Yunqing.
The slender snow-white hand grabbed Cheng Yi's wrist, and his mouth was indeed so lightly written.
Cheng Yi, who was easily grabbed by Xin Yan's wrist, had a gloomy face, and wanted to pull out his wrist, so he said sharply: "Who are you?" Don't let go of Miss Ben yet. ”
Xin Yan responded to her wishes and let go of his hand, but Cheng Yi didn't expect Xin Yan to let go so easily, and he didn't pay attention to the unstable center of gravity and retreated a few steps, so that he could stabilize his body so that he would not fall.
She couldn't believe it and shouted, "You dare to push Miss Ben? ”
Xin Yan raised his hands and looked innocent: "I didn't, Miss Cheng asked me to let go, I let go, everyone present watched, Miss Cheng didn't wronged me." ”
Xin Yan will make a move, it is completely instinctive, she just came over after Shao Yunqing, and naturally listened to their words.
is also very speechless to Shao Yunqing, he was forced to cry in a few words, and he couldn't even speak, this kind of temperament is introverted when it sounds good, and cowardly and incompetent when it is ugly.
Xin Yan felt that Shao Yunqing was more suitable for the latter.
It's just that Xin Yan didn't expect that Cheng Yi was also a tendon, and he was provoked by Shao Yunwan a few times, and he immediately couldn't stay and wanted to beat people.
Originally, Xin Yan stood not far from Shao Yunqing, and when he saw her waving his palm, he was completely instinctive and grabbed her.
Shao Yunqing just cast a grateful look at her, and Xin Yan didn't have the heart to deal with her.
Over there, Cheng Yi became irritable again, and shouted angrily: "I wronged you? You clearly did it on purpose. Do you want to stand up for Shao Yunqing? ”
Xin Yan said lightly: "I just think Miss Cheng's beating is not good, after all, this is the Imperial Garden, and the people present are all daughters of various governments with heads and faces, if Miss Cheng is allowed to slap Miss Shao, I am afraid that the queen will blame her, and we can't afford it." ”
Xin Yan's words made the other young ladies amazed, they did have the mentality of watching the play, but they didn't expect that this was the palace, no matter who was right and who was wrong today, once they made a move, the people who were watching were afraid that they would not be able to escape the blame, after all, they didn't persuade at all, but watched the play on the sidelines.
Thinking of this, Cheng Yi couldn't help but feel a little wronged, they were carefully dressed up for this dinner, if it was because of this incident that the queen or the emperor had a bad impression, wouldn't it be a failure.
At this time, they all opened their mouths to persuade Cheng Yi not to be angry.
A group of people, you say everything to me, Cheng Yi thinks that if he holds on to it, it will make others annoyed. This is unwillingly revealed.
Shao Yunwan didn't expect this matter to be revealed because of Xin Yan's few words, and she complained in her heart, but said with a smile on her face: "I don't know where this sister is?" ”
Xin Yan really admired Shao Yunwan's expression of changing face, obviously hated herself for ruining her good deeds, hated her so much, and could talk to her with a smile on her face, I am afraid that this kung fu will not be practiced in a day or two.
At least, the Miss Cheng next to her couldn't do it, I didn't see her eyes full of evil spirits.
"You're welcome, my surname is Xin."
Xin Yan didn't reply to her directly, and Shao Yunwan thought about it in her heart, and then she was sure that there was no official surnamed Xin, and now she was really sure that Xin Yan was from a small family.
A trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, and although he was well hidden, he was still caught by Xin Yan.
This man has something strange in his head. Do you think her status is "low" and don't care?
Soon, she also verified Xin Yan's idea.
Shao Yunwan still had a smile on her face, but the smile was faint, and in Xin Yan's opinion, it was really perfunctory.
Cheng Yi next to him thought of a place with her, snorted coldly, and didn't look at Xin Yan.
Shao Yunqing looked down on Xin Yan by the two of them, and felt uncomfortable, feeling that it was because of him, so he was silent on the side and didn't speak.
