Yu Wenhao was so angry that he was furious, but judging from his sister-in-law's tone, it seemed that she was not instigating others.
Such shouting naturally alarmed Yuan Qingling.
Aunt Xi helped her over. She was wearing a brocade cloak, which was dragging on the ground. Because she was walking in a hurry, her steps were accommodating to her body, just like a windy penguin.
"What's going on?" She stepped forward, glanced at Xiaolan, and then at Yu Wenhao, who looked furious.
Yuan Qingping said aggrievedly: "Sister, Your Majesty, he actually treated Xiaolan...how could he do this?"
Yu Wenhao was so angry that he said angrily: "I was bathing in the ghost pool, and she broke in and hugged me from behind. I just dragged her out."
Yuan Qingping was startled, "Nonsense..."
However, she stopped talking immediately and looked at Xiaolan, "You said you went out for a walk. Where did you go?"
But no, she can trust Xiaolan, she has a simple heart.
Xiaolan immediately knelt on the ground, crying loudly, her voice was sad and desperate, and she did not defend herself.
Yuan Qingping didn't know whether it was true or false for a moment. She didn't know whether she was crying because she was bullied or because of something else.
Yuan Qingling glanced at Yu Wenhao and said to Xu: "Send the prince to take a bath."
"What a ghost..." Yu Wenhao was still angry, but he received Yuan Qing Ling's cold eyes, "Wash and wipe the place where the woman just touched, Xu Yi, help him
Wash, wherever you have been touched, rub it hard for me!"
Xu Yixiong bravely accepted the order and dragged Yu Wenhao away.
Yu Wenhao did not forget to turn around and defend, "I never touched her, I knew it when she hugged her..."
"Luya, Qiluo, take the second young lady and Miss Xiaolan to the side hall." Yuan Qingling turned around and left, and Grandma Xi hurriedly stepped forward to support them.
Yuan Qingling's breath was a little short, she was angry.
Xiaolan was dragged up by Qiluo and said: "Go ahead, why are you crying? Did the prince bully you?"
Yuan Qingping stared at Qiluo, "Could it be that Xiaolan seduced him?"
She wouldn't believe it even to death.
Xiaolan just cried and let Qiluo drag her in.
Yuan Qingling sat on the chair, the annoyance in her heart welled up again, and she felt like vomiting.
She tried her best to hold back and asked Aunt Xi to bring her some water. She took a sip and then looked at Xiaolan and said, "Tell me, what's going on?"
Yuan Qingping couldn't help but stepped forward, "Sister, this matter has nothing to do with Xiaolan. She was bullied. Even if you don't stand up for her, you shouldn't question her."
Yuan Qingling glanced at Yuan Qingping and said, "Shut up first and listen to her."
Xiaolan still only cried and said nothing.
Yuan Qingling became impatient and said sternly: "Stop crying."
"Sister!" Yuan Qingping looked at her with disappointment, "She is the one who was bullied, why did you drink her?"
Yuan Qingling looked at this sister who was originally smarter. Is she showing off her brains today?
Yuan Qingling held back her breath and said calmly: "Okay, tell me how this matter will end now."
Xiaolan sobbed and said: "Sister Ling, I don't ask for anything. Now that my innocence has been damaged, I beg Sister Ling to let me stay in the palace. Even if I can be a slave, I can serve you and the prince. I don't ask for status."
Yuan Qingling sighed softly, "Okay, since you said so, then I will help you."
Xiaolan raised her head, a trace of ecstasy flashed in her eyes, "Sister Xie Ling is here to help."
"Mother Xi, look at who else in our family is not married, point Xiaolan to him." Yuan Qing said.
"The concierge Ah Tu is not married yet." Aunt Xi said.
"Okay, the palace will provide this money to help them get married." Yuan Qingling said.
Xiaolan was startled, her face turned pale, and she started crying again, "Sister Ling, you are trying to force me to death!"
Yuan Qingping was so angry that he shook his head.
Yuan Qing Ling came closer and said: "Forcing you to death? You said you were willing to stay in the palace as a slave. What? You didn't mean it?"
Xiaolan was so frightened that she stopped crying and knelt on the ground, kowtowing, "Sister Ling, I was wrong. Please forgive me."
Yuan Qingling asked in a cold tone: "What's wrong?"
Xiaolan cried and said: "Someone taught me to do this. That person said that as long as the prince touches me, he will marry me as his concubine. She said that this is how you, Sister Ling, became the Princess of Chu."
Yuan Qingping could hardly believe his ears, his face turned pale, "Xiaolan, what are you talking about?"
Xiaolan raised her head and looked at Yuan Qingping, with tears on her face, "Sister Ping, you have to forgive me. I also went astray for a moment. I don't want to marry the great scholar Wu. As long as I become the concubine of King Chu, even if the engagement is broken off,
, Grand Scholar Wu doesn’t dare to trouble his father.”
Yuan Qing held his breath and said, "You are... you are so confused and unreasonable. I thought you were being bullied and Baba stood up for you. Why are you so stupid? I really want to slap you to death."
Xiaolan was crying, looking at Yuan Qingping in confusion and panic, and then at Yuan Qingling, her eyelashes fluttering, fearful and uneasy.
"Who is the person who instigated you like this?" Yuan Qingling asked coldly.
Xiaolan still just cried and didn't say anything.
Yuan Qing held his breath and held her hand, "Tell me, who told you to do this?"
Xiaolan then stammered more and said: "It's Princess Ji. Yesterday, Princess Ji ordered someone to invite me to Prince Ji's Mansion. She asked me to go to Sister Ping to talk about my marriage, and then asked me to say that I was unhappy and wanted to go to Prince Ji's Mansion.
I was talking to you, trying to find a way to sneak into the palace, but it happened that you came to the palace today, and the matter..."
Her voice became lower and lower.
Yuan Qingping's hands and feet were cold, but he didn't expect that he would be taken advantage of.
She was extremely disappointed, "I don't have you as a friend anymore. Just go back and don't come to me in the future."
Aunt Xi was about to speak out, but Yuan Qingling stopped her, "Let the second lady handle it."
Aunt Xi had no choice but to stop talking. The second lady let her go, but still protected her. The palace had not punished her yet.
Xiaolan went out crying, went back to pack her clothes, and left in dejection with her maid.
Yuan Qingping looked at the eldest sister and lowered her head guiltily, "Sister, I'm sorry, I didn't expect Xiaolan to have such thoughts."
Yuan Qingling smiled and said, "It will be better to be more thoughtful in the future."
In fact, it's okay for Princess Ji to make some mistakes. She has been silent all the time, and she doesn't know what big move she is holding back, which is even more terrifying.
This little fuss would be perfect to add a little spice to her boring days of confinement.
Yuan Qing said with hatred: "Then why is Princess Ji biting you like a mad dog and not letting go?"
Yuan Qing scolded her lightly, "You must not be rude, how can you compare a dog to her? Duobao will be angry."
Duobao rushed in wagging his tail and crawled at Yuan Qingling's feet, looking deeply impressed.
Yuan Qingping couldn't help laughing, but he still said in annoyance: "I should be careful in the future. Outsiders know that I can come in and out of the palace at will. If someone has ulterior motives for you, they will definitely take advantage of me."
"As long as you know, except for grandma, no one can be brought here, or if you hear any rumors outside, don't believe it. If you remember these two things, you will basically not make any mistakes," Yuan Qing said.
