Chapter Eighty-Eight: Reaping the Consequences

"You! How dare you slander me in turn! "Winter smoke angrily pointed at the clouds, and jumped like thunder.

Han Liyue held her forehead and sighed.

Dongyan turned to Han Liyue and swore an oath: "Please trust the princess, the slave is not what Xiang Yun Wei'er said!" She is changing the topic, trying to pull the slave into the water and exonerate her! ”

Yun Wei'er saw that the smile on Princess Han Liyue's face was fading, so she knelt down and said with a sincere face: "Princess Yinjian!" Since Sister Dongyan folded the peach blossom branch and said that she was innocent, then it was unfair for the slave to pick a peony and be said to be privately taught by the man! Please also ask the princess to administer justice for the slaves! ”

Dong Yan was afraid that this matter would be settled, so he easily let go of Yun Wei'er, so he also knelt down and swore to Princess Han Liyue: "Princess, don't listen to Yun Wei'er's words!" The slave saw her tryst with a man in the jungle with her own eyes, and the slave and maid had no lies! I also asked the princess Ye Yun to secretly communicate with the dignitaries and nobles, the crime of violating morals and customs! ”

Han Liyue raised her eyebrows and asked Dong Yan, "How do you know that that man is a high-ranking official?" Did you see that?! If you see it, why don't you just tell me who that man is, and I can persuade her in time, lest she go the wrong way and ruin her reputation for innocence! ”

Dongyan was hesitant, and he didn't dare to confess the crown prince Helian Yingtholy, so he could only play dumb riddles with Han Liyue and avoid answering.

"The slave didn't see the man's appearance clearly, only saw the man's brocade robe and jade robe, either rich or expensive." Winter Smoke reluctantly spoke.

Han Liyue hated that iron could not become steel, so she didn't say anything, and turned her eyes to Yun Wei'er who was kneeling on the ground and said, "Although Dongyan doesn't have a strong credential to prove your fault, the fact that you used kitchen ingredients without permission is true. Based on this alone, you have violated the rules of the house, and I can deduct your monthly silver for this month, and order you to think about it in the firewood room! But I will temporarily punish you to kneel in the courtyard for two hours, and punish you with a small punishment and a big commandment, so as to see the aftermath! Do you have doubts? ”

Han Liyue really couldn't come up with evidence of Yun Wei'er's private meeting with the man, and Dong Yan's evidence was weak. Han Liyue couldn't punish Yun Wei'er, so she had to retreat to the next best thing, first deduct Yun Wei'er for a small crime of stealing, and kill her majesty and sharpness.

The ingredients for Yun Wei'er's porridge were all exchanged for the moon silver she had accumulated on weekdays with the mother-in-law in charge of the kitchen, and Yun Wei'er didn't do anything wrong. Princess Han Liyue didn't figure it out, so she was charged with stealing, where was Yun Wei'er willing to succumb to it.

Yun Wei'er opened her mouth and explained to Han Liyue: "The princess is wrong to blame the slave! The ingredients for the slave maid to cook porridge were bought by the mother-in-law who spent her own money to entrust the kitchen, and there was no such thing as stealing the ingredients of the palace, and the mother-in-law in the kitchen could testify for the slave and maid. Therefore, dare to ask the princess and Sister Dongyan, what is the crime of the slave? ”

Han Liyue didn't expect that the ingredients that Yun Wei'er used to cook the porridge were bought by Yun Wei'er from the kitchen in the mansion. Han Liyue glared angrily at Dong Yan, who was still kneeling on the ground, forcibly suppressed her anger, and said, "Why didn't you hide the matter of Yu'er buying ingredients from the kitchen?!" If I hadn't said it myself, I would have almost blamed her for your mistake! ”

"Slave ......" It was the first time that Dongyan saw Han Liyue glaring angrily and accusing herself.

Dongyan was indeed subjective, and did not ask clearly where the ingredients for Yun Wei'er's porridge came from. Now Han Liyue is angry, because of Dongyan's mistake, Han Liyue almost fell into the truth. In order to maintain Han Liyue's reputation, Dongyan endured his grievances and blamed himself: "It was the slave maid who was derelict in her duties, did not investigate clearly, and misunderstood Yun Wei'er." Please also punish the princess! ”
