"I have never met the Mr. Zhang you are talking about, and I don't know who the Mr. Zhang you are talking about is, so what do you want me to say?" Xia Luotong sneered.
"These two servants have already said..."
Lei Manhe had a cold face and wanted to say something more, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Wu Zechen's cold voice.
"That's enough! I have already said that, drag down and kill these two slaves who are talking nonsense!" At this time, Wu Zechen had lost his patience and glanced at Lei Manhe coldly, without any warmth in them, "Yes The king sent someone to summon the princess. The king has been waiting for the princess in this room. Until the princess came to this room to join the king, during this period, no Mr. Zhang came at all! Until you came, the princess had been with the king. Together, what else can you say?"
What? ! Xia Luotong actually stayed with Prince An from beginning to end? Prince An came early? !
"How is it possible?!" Mrs. Li subconsciously said, with a look of disbelief on her face. She never thought that Prince An would come early?
But the person she arranged didn't report this at all! Moreover, the servant who reported back clearly saw Mr. Zhang and Xia Luotong entering this room one after another, so why were the final results different?
Not only Li, but also Lei Manhe's face changed, her eyes filled with shock. She didn't even know that Prince An had arrived early!
The onlookers were even more surprised, they didn’t expect the truth to be like this!
No wonder no matter what Li, Lei Manhe and the two servants said, Prince An did not show the slightest suspicion. He did not believe their words from beginning to end, and even asked the two so-called "testimonies". It turned out that the person died because he knew the whole story! He's always been here!
At this moment, everyone's attitude suddenly changed. They looked at Mr. Li and the two servants with something wrong, showing some suspicion and ulterior motives.
Princess An’s husband has said so himself, is it possible that there could be lies? Therefore, it can only be Li who insists on dragging Princess An, which makes people even more suspicious. Moreover, the relationship between Li and Princess An is not harmonious, which is a well-known thing.
But it's not just Li. The behavior of the head of Ruirong County is also quite confusing. Why does he seem to be somewhat hostile to Princess An? It was clearly said that Prince An was the one who wanted to capture the two servants of the Duke of Guo. If the Lord of Ruirong County was dissatisfied, he should have gone to Prince An. Why did he target Princess An instead?
"How is it impossible? Does Mrs. Xia know better than this king who has been here all the time? Does Mrs. Xia know something else that others don't know?" Wu Zechen looked at Li with cold eyes, with an aggressive tone in his tone.
"I don't know, I'm just a little surprised. I didn't expect Prince An to come to Fengguo Duke's Mansion so early. He never saw you at the banquet, so he was so surprised and lost his temper." Mrs. Li waved her hands repeatedly, saying this to her Where can I dare to pick it up? Even if I gnashed my teeth with hatred in my heart, I could only bow down in a good voice.
"Since you don't know clearly, then don't talk so much. What you say is as if you saw it with your own eyes, but in the end it's all slander. Not only do you lose face, but you also embarrass the Xia family." Wu Zechen said unceremoniously. He kept talking until Mrs. Li's face turned blue and white, and she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in immediately!
Mrs. Li never expected that Prince An would be so venomous, without caring about the Xia family and the Li family, and just reprimanded her directly in front of many people present!
After all, she is also a dignified second-grade imperial concubine, the wife of the Minister of Etiquette! Prince An reprimanded her in public, and in a short time she was too embarrassed to walk in the circle!
Even though there weren't many people present at this time, news like this shouldn't spread too quickly! I'm afraid it will be heard by all the guests at the banquet before the banquet ends today! By the day after tomorrow, perhaps everyone in the elite circle in the capital will know about her!
Li's face changed continuously. Xia Luotong felt extremely happy when he saw it. The slight smile at the corner of his mouth was not concealed at all. Everyone knew that he and Li were not on good terms, so why did he have to forcefully put on a nice appearance? If Mrs. Li can throw dirty water on herself in public, then why should she care about the so-called superficial harmony?
Wu Zechen's words made Li speechless. Xia Luotong knew that the man was venting his anger on her, and felt happy in her heart. She couldn't help but scratch the palm of his hand.
The next moment, Xia Luotong received a response from the man next to her. The thick fingertips traced across her palm, which only made her feel warm in her heart.
This time, Xia Luotong did not speak again, but let Wu Zechen stand up for him.
"I have never seen the Mr. Zhang that you keep talking about, let alone the princess. It's really ridiculous that you want to force her to tell the whereabouts of Mr. Zhang." Wu Zechen directly told the nature of the matter. He turned around and turned to Lei Manhe and said coldly, "Young Master Zhang was thrown into the palace of your Fengguo Duke. This responsibility should also be shouldered by your Fengguo Palace. What? Could it be that you still want to blame it on Prince An's house?" Go up? This can also be framed, the Lord of Ruirong County is really good at it!"
Lei Manhe never expected that the first time Prince An said so many words to him, it would be in such a cold and heartless tone under this situation!
How could she, who had always been proud, endure it? She was always loved and sought after, and always stood above the clouds. She finally found a man she liked, but she was humiliated by this man in public. She felt more humiliated than ever before!
Prince An's cold words to him were to protect his princess, Xia Luotong, whom Lei Manhe wanted to get rid of quickly!
Originally, there was no dispute between Lei Manhe and Xia Luotong. She just needed the position of Princess An to attack Xia Luotong, and all those who stood in her way should be cleared away.
But now, she has completely become enemies with the woman who blocked her way!
Lei Manhe blamed everything on Xia Luotong, but when facing Wu Zechen, she could not be as arrogant as usual. Besides, Wu Zechen had already said so, and Wu Zechen understood the whole situation. When she spoke, she naturally I also lost a bit of confidence.
"Your Majesty, it's not that Manhe framed Prince An's palace. Manhe also listened to the words of these two minions and misunderstood the princess. It's because Manhe was lax in her duties and caused such a thing to cause trouble to the prince. Yes, I will come to apologize some other day." Lei Manhe was furious, but thinking that the man in front of him was the man he longed for, he had no choice but to suppress it, and finally added calmly.
