Chapter 20: Justice
"His Royal Highness King Rui! Please call the shots for my young lady! ”
Ruxiang, the girl, who didn't know where to borrow the bear-hearted leopard gall, knelt down at Li Fuxian with a plop, burst into tears, and begged him to uphold justice.
"Presumptuous, what are you talking nonsense about, you! How dare you disturb the prince! Li'er, pull her down quickly! ”
The county lord of Qi'an's eyelids jumped, his heart was not good, and he immediately scolded. Wei Yuxiao and Rue Xiang shrank at the same time, and everyone could see that Ru Xiang's eyes were full of fear, but she gritted her teeth and said to Li Fuxian: "Your Highness, the slave is not talking nonsense, please save my young lady!" ”
"Your Highness, this woman has sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, full of lies, and has not spoken a word of truth, so you must not listen to her. Hurry up and gag her and drag her down! ”
The county lord of Qi'an was so excited, this move was precisely in response to the fact that there were no three hundred taels of silver here, and clearly told Li Fuxian that she had a ghost in her heart.
"Stop, this king has his own judgment."
Li Fuxian's face was cold, and he glanced at the county lord of Qi'an, not angry and arrogant, and then said to Ruxiang in a gentle voice.
"Don't cry yet. Let's talk about what's going on. ”
Rue Xiang hurriedly wiped her tears before she said: "Has Your Highness heard the rumors in the capital a few days ago, saying that the dowry of the biological mother of the eldest lady of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion was usurped, and she was treated and tortured so badly that she was sick in bed. ”
"Well, this king has heard of it."
Li Fuxian nodded, this matter was spreading, it was difficult for him not to know, and besides, not to mention that the person he cared about was the protagonist among them, so he knew more than they thought. That's why he's here today.
"Your Highness, this is not a rumor, but true! From the beginning, when the young lady first returned home, the original young lady's boudoir had long been deserted, and it was still temporarily cleaned that day.
The young lady had already passed the salary last year, and according to the law, the dowry of the first lady should have been handed over to the young lady last year. When the young lady returned home, she told her about the matter, but the lady refused to give the dowry to the young lady on the grounds that she did not know how to manage the house, and said that the young lady would return the dowry to the young lady when she learned to be a housekeeper.
After that, Mrs. sent four grandmothers to the young lady's side, nominally the housekeeper who taught the young lady to be the housekeeper, but in fact she was the nurturing grandmother of Magnolia Garden. Through upbringing etiquette, they tortured Miss, and the injuries on Miss's body were all beaten by them! Miss is also sick in bed because of this, not at all what Mrs. said, Miss suffered from the wind and cold because she was playing in the snow! ”
What Rue Xiang said is really appalling. Everyone's expressions changed when they saw the county lord of Qi'an, after all, they had just seen the injury on Wei Yuxiao's body with their own eyes.
"Bold, who knows what the crime of slandering the Lady of the Decree is?"
Li'er's eyes widened angrily and she said sharply.
"Yes, you understand, falsely accusing Mrs. False Command is a big crime to lose your head!"
Mrs. Su also said, both openly and secretly warning Ruxiang.
Li Fuxian glanced at Wei Yuxiao, who was shrunk into a ball and trembling, although he understood that Wei Yuxiao intended to do so, he still couldn't control the anger in his heart, clenched his fists fiercely, and suppressed the anger surging in his heart.
"Your Highness, even if the slave maid has great courage, she doesn't dare to lie, what the slave and maid say is true, and there is no lie!"
Rue Xiang wept blood every word, and tears filled her eyes again.
"Mrs. Wei, is there anything wrong with what she said?"
Li Fuxian's face was like frost, and his expression when he looked at the county lord of Qi'an seemed to be frozen.
