Chapter 37: False accusations
Yan Lingyue, who had been waiting impatiently, was stunned when she saw Yan Zhihe.
And when Yan Zhihe saw Yan Lingyue, who was covered in dirt surrounded by three beggars, she was also stunned, and then the smile on the corner of her mouth became bigger and bigger, "What a coincidence, I didn't expect to see the fifth sister here." β
"Coincidentally?" Yan Lingyue looked at Yan Zhihe's eyes with a hint of inquiry. Her appearance here at this point in time really makes people wonder, "Why did the second sister suddenly come to the temple?" β
"Of course it's burning incense and worshipping the Buddha," Yan Zhihe's gaze walked around Yan Lingyue and the three beggars, and said unclearly, "Fifth sister has been with these beggars for the past two days?" One woman and three men, if the Nine Emperors know, I'm afraid it's not good. β
When Yan Lingyue heard this, she frowned, "I've been missing for two days, and the second sister doesn't seem to be worried at all." β
Yan Zhihe smiled, "There is no one else here, so the fifth sister doesn't have to play the drama of sisterhood anymore, and my father can't see it." β
Yan Zhihe's words fell, and she took a closer look at Yan Lingyue, and found that she didn't seem to be injured except for some dirty face, Yan Zhihe wondered, and couldn't help but look at the three beggars, "Could it be that the silver is given less?" So unresponsible. In her imagination, Yan Lingyue should be covered in bruises. That's a lot of difference.
Yan Zhihe thought to herself that these three beggars were too unreliable. However, the three beggars didn't know who the person behind the scenes was, and they had only seen the little guy who passed the message. The little maid said that this morning their young lady would bring someone over and let the three beggars commit violence against Yan Lingyue as planned.
Now listening to Yan Zhihe's words, the three beggars regard Yan Zhihe as the young lady who hired them to commit murder. What's more, there are still Nine Emperor Princes standing behind the stone statue, in order to save their lives, the three beggars don't care about the truth, they just want to shirk their responsibilities as soon as possible, and they knelt directly in front of Yan Lingyue at the moment, "It's her, it's the young lady in front of you who ordered our brothers to arrest you, and let us be violent to you." We've been so blinded by lard, how can we really arrest you in a daze......"
Seeing the three beggars crying bitterly and confessing to Yan Lingyue, Yan Zhihe was messy, "Are you mistaken?" "What kind of medicine is sold in this Nianyun gourd, could it be that she came over to see the three beggars admit their mistakes to Yan Lingyue?
What is this? Just when Yan Zhihe was puzzled, the three beggars pointed the finger at Yan Zhihe again, "We are not mistaken, it is you, all this is arranged by you!" β
When did she arrange these? Yan Zhihe was shocked, watching Yan Lingyue hurriedly wave her hand, "No, no, no......" She hates Yan Lingyue, but she will not be stupid enough to take the blame for others.
"No, no, the facts are all in front of you, what else do you have to quibble," Seeing that the three beggars had already identified Yan Zhihe, Zhou Ziyu couldn't help jumping out from behind the stone statue.
Yan Zhihe's eyes widened suddenly.
Yan resolutely followed and walked out, "Zhihe, you have disappointed your father too much." β
Thinking of Yan Zhihe's words, Yan resolutely felt heartbroken, "What does it mean that you don't have to play the drama of sisterhood anymore, is it possible that Zhihe's usual well-behaved is all acted?!" β
"Come on, arrest her for this prince," Zhou Ziyu protected Yan Lingyue behind him and ordered the guards.
"Daddy...... The Nine Emperors? Youβwhen did you come! Before Yan Zhihe could figure out the situation, she was already captured by the guards. At this time, Yan Zhihe really realized the seriousness of the matter, "No, it's really not me." β
Yan Zhihe struggled and cried to Yan resolutely, "Daddy, daddy, you have to believe Zhihe." No matter how confused Zhihe is, she won't be stupid enough to arrange three beggars to harm the fifth sister. β
"It's Duan Nianyun, it's Duan Nianyun who asked me to come over," It's all at this time, where Yan Zhihe still doesn't understand. It must have been Duan Nianyun who knew that the matter had been revealed and wanted her to be a scapegoat. She was put on a show by Duan Nianyun! Yan Zhihe's teeth itched with hatred, "I implore the Nine Emperor Princes to call Duan Nianyun over, I want to confront her." β
Disappointment to disappointment, Yan resolutely still favored his own daughter in the end, "Zhihe will not mention Miss Duan for no reason, in order to find out the truth of the matter, the Nine Emperor Princes might as well send someone to the Duan Mansion for a visit." β
At this moment, Zhou Ziyu's eyes were full of Yan Lingyue, and he automatically ignored Yan Zhihe's shouting of grievances, "Yue, Yue'er is hungry, or Ziyu will send Yue'er home first?" β
Yan Zhihe saw that Zhou Ziyu was unmoved, and knelt on the ground with a puff, "The Nine Emperor Princes can't convict Zhihe just based on the words of the three beggars, Zhihe is wronged." β
Regardless of whether they are wronged or not, the sisters of the Yan family kill each other, and it is a shame for the Yan family to spread it. Yan Yiran couldn't allow this to happen, so he coughed lightly twice and looked at Yan Lingyue.
Of course, Yan Lingyue understood what Yan Yiran meant, no matter how things developed for the time being, her father's face still had to be given. immediately said to Zhou Ziyu, "If you don't find out who the culprit is, where can Yue'er rest assured, it's better for the Nine Emperor Princes to send someone to Duanfu for a trip." β
Regarding Yan Lingyue's words, Zhou Ziyu has always been obedient, "Zhang Yu, hurry, go to Duanfu." β
Zhang Yu responded and hurriedly ran out.
Zhou Ziyu pulled Yan Lingyue to sit on the straw, took out a silk handkerchief from her sleeve, and helped her wipe the ash on her cheeks little by little, "Yue, Yue'er suffered, it's all Ziyu's bad." It's Ziyu who didn't protect Yue'er......"
Anling Temple is not close to Duan Mansion, but I didn't expect Zhang Yu to come back not long after leaving, and he also brought Li and Duan Nianyun, "The slave just walked a few steps when he happened to meet Duan Mansion's carriage. β
As soon as Li stepped into the temple, he took Duan Nianyun to salute Zhou Ziyu first.
"Yesterday, Miss Yan Er made an appointment with us Yun'er and said that she would come to the temple to worship the Buddha together. The concubine was not at ease, so she insisted on following. It's just ......" Li Shi looked at Yan Zhihe, who was kneeling on the ground, and then at Yan Lingyue, looking confused and surprised, "Why is Miss Lingyue here?" Aren't youβYou're missing? Recently, our master has been looking for Miss Ling Yue, and he has been going crazy. β
Although he knew that the plan had failed, Duan Nianyun was still looking forward to seeing the picture of Yan Lingyue being insulted, but the people were standing here intact. Although Duan Nianyun was mentally prepared, she couldn't deny that she was still a little lost in her heart. She had been planning for so long, and she had been frightened for so many days, but she didn't expect that nothing would fall in the end, and Duan Nianyun's heart was extremely upset.
Seeing Yan Zhihe kneeling on the ground again, Duan Nianyun was happy at the same time. Things really developed as her father expected, and the Nine Emperor Princes really found Yan Lingyue. Fortunately, she listened to her father's words and deceived Yan Zhihe. Otherwise, she wouldn't have finished playing. Duan Nianyun covered his lips and looked at Yan Zhihe in confusion, "Zhihe, what are you?" Didn't you say that if you come to worship the Buddha today, you will have a good show? But what's going on now? β
"These three beggars are the rumored murderers who kidnapped Miss Ling Yue?" Duan Nianyun glanced at the beggar kneeling on the ground, and shook Li's arm, "Mother, you hurry up and find someone to send a message to your father, so that he doesn't have to work blindly." Miss Ling Yue is here. β
Li and Duan Nianyun reversed black and white so much that it really angered Yan Zhihe, "Duan Nianyun! Obviously, you invited me here, and you were the one who said you were going to come to the play. How can you accuse me like that? β
"Accusing you? What have I accused you of? Duan Nianyun looked innocent.
Yan Zhihe's hands trembled, "Did you find these three beggars?" You were jealous of my fifth sister, so you found three beggars and wanted to insult my fifth sister. I didn't expect the matter to be revealed, that's why you asked me over, didn't you? You want to put the blame on me. β
Yan Zhihe's guess was not wrong at all. Duan Nianyun's heart was beating wildly when he heard this, but his face was calm, "Zhihe, Zhihe, you and I are sisters." How can you be so open-eyed and liar? β
"On weekdays, you keep saying that because of your fifth sister, your mother was beaten and grounded, and you were also locked up, and you hated that your fifth sister helped the third aunt take away the position of the lady that belonged to your mother. I sympathize with you, and I don't even have a very good attitude towards Miss Ling Yue, I admit that. But you can't frame me like this just because I had a conflict with Miss Ling Yue. β
Li Shi also said, "I said why did Miss Yan Er suddenly ask us Yun'er to come out to burn incense, and the relationship has been planned for a long time." If the Nine Emperors didn't come, they would have asked us Yun'er to come over to watch the play. Now that the Nine Emperor Princes are here, they want to splash dirty water on our Yun'er's head. Li Shi said and glared back at Duan Nianyun, "I told you a long time ago that you should be cautious and cautious when making friends!" You don't listen, it's not that Miss Yan Er is weak and kind. If you want me to say, how kind can a person who arranges his sisters out there be? β
Li's words can be described as a slappling of Yan Zhihe's face.
Even if Yan resolutely wants to protect his daughter, he has nothing to say. That ugly thing happened in the backyard of Yan Mansion, how could Duan Nianyun know it clearly? On this point alone, people really didn't wronged Yan Zhihe.
And when Yan Zhihe first stepped into the temple, everyone looked at Yan Lingyue's attitude towards her. Yan resolutely felt that his old face was almost out of place.
"Daddy, daddy, you have to believe me," Yan Zhihe was really scared. The kidnapping of Yan Lingyue, if it was really counted on her head, then she would not have a good life in the future.
"Nine Emperor Princes, Nine Emperor Princes, you must find out everything. All this was really arranged by Duan Nianyun, it was Duan Nianyun who liked you and didn't want the fifth sister to marry you, so he thought about harming the fifth sister, at best, I didn't report it, I really wasn't the culprit! Yan Zhihe begged Zhou Ziyu to stop, and pleaded with Yan Lingyue again, "Fifth sister, you must believe me." Even if I hated you, I wouldn't have the guts to do such a thing. β
As soon as the Li family heard Yan Zhihe tell her daughter's thoughts to the Nine Emperors, she panicked at the moment, "Second Miss Yan! Our Yun'er didn't offend you, why did you wronged us Yun'er like this. β
Li Shi pulled Yan Zhihe and knelt in front of Zhou Ziyu, "Our Yun'er has a big temperament, but we have always done things above board, if we like it, we like it, if we don't like it, we will never do those things that can't be put on the table, our Duanfu's family style doesn't allow us to do this, and we don't even disdain to do that!"
