Chapter 9: Who's Lying

Jiang Juan chuckled, "Look, even you think so, let alone other people?" ”

Xiao Yicheng glared, "What do you mean?" ”

Jiang Juan asked rhetorically: "The second son should still remember, how did I marry into the Hou Mansion?" ”

Xiao Yicheng's eyes shrank, and all kinds of things appeared in front of him that day.

On the day she was welcomed into the mansion, the lights inside and outside the Hou Mansion were colorful, and the scene could almost catch up with the time when she married his wife.

After entering the door, Jiang Juan was led to a delicate courtyard with specifications second only to the master's mother, and the room was full of silk and satin and beaded hairpin jewelry given by the Hou Ye.

Although Jiang Juan was born as a prostitute and had no support behind her, the scenery when she got married was not inferior to the other two aunts.

Although Xiao Yicheng never asked about the back house, he knew the jealousy and madness of the women in the back house.

He couldn't help but take a deep breath, "You want to say that it is your stepmother who is jealous of your father's favor, so she wants to calculate you?" ”

Jiang Juan thought to herself: Since she planned to plot against Xiao Yicheng, she had to blow the wind in his ears early, so that he would be disappointed in the Hou Mansion subtly.

So, even if she doesn't have evidence to prove her innocence now, she has to find a way to direct his thoughts in this direction.

Jiang Juan paused and responded cautiously: "I don't have evidence, so I can't give a clear answer, but I did get poisoned after eating the food she sent her." ”

"Haha, ridiculous!"

Xiao Yicheng instantly laughed, "You said that you were poisoned, then I want to ask you, you are proficient in medical skills, why can't you even distinguish that the food has been poisoned?" ”

"I ......"

Jiang Juan's expression was stunned, she had forgotten this stubble, how to explain it?

She can't say that she was reborn and returned after the incident, and in her previous life, she was also proficient in medical skills much later!

Xiao Yichen saw that she couldn't answer, his face instantly turned frosty, and his mockery became even stronger, "Why didn't the fourth aunt explain?" ”

"Or is it that the crudeness of the lie has been discovered and you can't get past it?"

Jiang Juan was instantly stimulated, she hurriedly took two steps forward and retorted:

"I'm the number one geisha in the capital, even if I'm reduced to pleasing men, I won't rely on this kind of inferior thing, since I can't use it, where will I have the opportunity to get to know it?"

"Even if I know a little bit about these things, and I am proficient in medical skills, but there are thousands of aphrodisiac poisons, I may not know all of them!"

Xiao Yicheng was thoughtful, and asked not to be outdone: "Even so, why did you not think of asking for help first after you were poisoned, but broke into your eldest brother's yard?" ”

"I remember that you and your eldest brother live in a north and south place, which is very far away."

Jiang Juan recalled for a moment, and this part of her memory was indeed very vague.

Jiang Juan couldn't help pursing her lips and replied: "My consciousness was restrained after I was poisoned, and I don't know how I broke in." ”

"Oh? Is that so? ”

Xiao Yicheng's face was full of ridicule, but when he saw Jiang Juan's clear and soft eyes, his questioning words swallowed back.

Perhaps, really?

After all, she was still young and had not seen much of the world, so it was reasonable for her to detect that the food was poisonous.

She spared her life, and there was really no reason to entangle with the prince when there were the most guests.

She is deeply favored by the Hou Ye, and it is reasonable to be jealous and calculating.

……

Xiao Yicheng also somehow, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Jiang Juan was right, but thinking that the person behind him who was calculating might be Mrs. Hou, he felt that the truth should not be like this.

Mrs. Hou is virtuous and generous, and she values the reputation of the Hou Mansion, how can she do things that harm others and are not beneficial to herself?

He looked at Jiang Juan seriously, wanting to see if she had deceived her from Jiang Wan's eyes, but her eyes were so clear that she couldn't see any clues at all.

Xiao Yicheng couldn't help but think in his heart, "Just one piece of food, do you suspect that this person was done by his stepmother, not another woman?" ”

Jiang Juan analyzed: "Mrs. Hou cherishes her love with Master Hou, the second aunt only has money in her heart, no man, and the third aunt is dedicated to the Buddha and has long been cut off from the red dust, so besides her, I can't think of anyone else who will calculate me." ”

Xiao Yicheng said: "But she is the biological mother of the eldest brother, although she can get rid of you by doing this, but it also makes people see the jokes of the eldest brother, as the biological mother, how can she bear it?" ”

Jiang Juan smiled, "Have you ever heard the words "Second Son" who is desperate and desperate, and the two words "salary at the bottom of the kettle?" ”

"All or nothing, the bottom of the kettle?"

It means that once Mrs. Hou dares to go out, she will have a better chance of suppressing Jiang Xuan.

Xiao Yicheng's face stiffened, and it became more and more complicated.

The Hou Ye favored Jiang Juan, and before leaving, he did not forget to kneel three times and knock nine times to ask the old lady to treat Jiang Wan more leniently.

Because of this explanation, even if Jiang Juan and Song Huaijin made a lot of rumors, the old lady only warned Jiang Juan verbally, and did not act excessively.

If it weren't for the fact that the birthday banquet had a great impact this time, the old lady probably wouldn't have interfered too much, let alone be angry.

The more Xiao Yicheng thought about it, the more he felt that Jiang Xuan's analysis was reasonable, but thinking of Mrs. Hou's life, his wavering heart was instantly pulled back.

"So what?"

He got up suddenly, and couldn't help but shout angrily: "You also said that the stepmother cherishes the love between her and her father-in-law, since she can tolerate two aunts for her father-in-law, how can she not tolerate you?" ”

"It's you, you dare to kill, naturally you dare to lie, who knows if what you just said is a statement to save your life?"

Jiang Xuan: "......"

Sure enough, without evidence, it is difficult to say that Xiao Yicheng believes her.

However, in her opinion, Xiao Yicheng has not returned to his home, and it is normal not to believe what others say, but this conclusion only needs to float in Xiao Yicheng's heart for a moment.

Although Jiang Juan was not annoyed, her face was still slightly gloomy, and she smiled bitterly: "It's okay, what the truth is, I'll know a thing or two when I return to the Hou Mansion." ”

"Okay, then I'll wait."

Xiao Yicheng's face also froze, and in an instant, the atmosphere between the two became solemn.

At this moment, the sudden appearance of the moon broke the silence.

"Second son, fourth aunt, lunch is ready, do you want to eat it now?"

Xiao Yicheng was so shocked that he came back to his senses, and shook his head without looking back: "Got it." ”

Cang Yue felt that the atmosphere was wrong, and hurriedly took the order to retreat.

Xiao Yicheng returned to his former coldness, and said to Jiang Wan: "In my opinion, the fourth aunt should find a way to cure my stubborn illness first!" Otherwise, you won't have a chance to prove your innocence. ”

Jiang Juan watched Xiao Yicheng approach frequently, and his aura was not inferior to him.

"Don't worry, I know it."

"That's good."

Xiao Yicheng smiled indifferently, turned his head and left.

"Second son, wait!"

Jiang Juan hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, endured the pain and asked: "I have said everything that the second prince asked, so can you count the things you promised me?" ”

Xiao Yicheng glanced at it coldly and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
