However, no matter whose intention it was to reveal this matter this time, Xia Zhilu just wanted to clear up the matter. She could not just admit it. Otherwise, if such a stigma shrouded Xia's family, what would she do in the future? Marry into Prince An's Mansion again? How would Prince An view her?
"You bitch! What nonsense are you talking about?! How dare you slander our Xia Mansion like this? Do you know what the crime is for slandering an official of the imperial court?!" Xia Zhilu couldn't care less about pretending to be weak and pitiful at this time, and reprimanded loudly with a stern look.
"Slander? How can Miss Xia Er have the nerve to say it is slander? The emperor confirmed that my princess has been chronically poisoned for more than ten years. Are you questioning the emperor?" Zhu Xuan was not afraid of Xia Zhilu at all, her eyes were slightly cold. said.
Is this really happening? It was actually confirmed by the emperor at the time? !
Everyone was even more surprised. They did not expect that things would take such a turn. When they looked at Xia Zhilu again, their eyes had long lost the sympathy they had just shown.
At that time, although there were rumors about Princess An's poisoning, many people had heard about it, but they did not know the specific circumstances. Moreover, after the guidance of so many caring people, the content that was spread had already changed, and was even far from the truth. .
"The Emperor only confirmed that my sister was poisoned and sentenced the vicious servant to be beheaded on the spot. It had nothing to do with us at all. It was all the murder committed by that servant privately! Don't try to provoke my sister here by spewing blood, you cheap maid. What are your intentions regarding your relationship with the Xia Mansion?!" Xia Zhilu said anxiously.
She bit the emperor to death and refused to let go of his sentence that day, so what if she knew the truth? As long as the emperor says that the mother is only responsible for negligence, then the poison was not caused by the mother!
However, what Xia Zhilu didn't expect was that what Zhuxuan wanted was not the result of the emperor's judgment. What she wanted was just for Xia Zhilu to admit it herself!
Zhuxuan suddenly raised her voice and said to everyone: "Everyone has heard it. Miss Xia Er has personally admitted that the servants of Xia Mansion poisoned my princess for more than ten years. This matter was not made up by slaves! "
Xia Zhilu was immediately shocked. She didn't expect Zhuxuan to play such a trick, but after hearing Zhuxuan's words, she was not worried anymore, and then said: "Yes, this matter was decided by the emperor. It's that The private behavior of this servant was not authorized by any master in Xia Mansion!"
"A servant in the palace dared to poison the young master for more than ten years, and it was never discovered. It was not discovered until the princess was poisoned in the palace. Do you think it is possible?" Zhuxuan ignored it. Xia Zhilu asked directly to the crowd that had already gathered around her.
"Although my princess is a daughter of the Xia family, her identity has never been recognized in the Xia family. Even in the Xia Mansion in the capital, few servants know that there is such a young lady as my princess, and no one knows about my princess. Mother is Lord Xia's first wife! What does this mean?" Zhuxuan asked sharply.
"It wasn't until the emperor granted me the marriage. The day before the wedding, my princess was taken to the capital, her identity was revealed, and she married into Prince An's Mansion in place of Miss Xia Er. I don't need to talk about this. You all must have heard about it. Then you might as well think back again, what were the rumors about my prince at that time? Brutal murder? Or was it a scary appearance? These rumors were not broken until my prince officially showed up!"
Zhuxuan looked at Xia Zhilu and said coldly: "So, after all, why was my princess recognized back to the Xia family?"
Although Zhuxuan didn't directly tell the answer, the answer was so obvious, who wouldn't be able to hear it?
The current Princess An was admitted to the Xia family just to replace Miss Xia Er in marriage!
"What nonsense! These are just the speculations of a cheap servant like you! Can a servant of the palace be so bullying and humiliating?!" Xia Zhilu was anxious and angry, and immediately scolded the maid next to her, "Why don't you go and tear it up? That bitch’s mouth!”
Xia Zhilu's maid heard the order and was about to step forward, but was separated by the guard who suddenly took two steps forward. Seeing the guard's cold face and terrifying momentum, the maid who only knew how to bully others immediately became timid. .
Zhuxuan looked at this scene coldly, but without the slightest fear, she still said persistently: "Who gave a mere servant the courage to poison the young master? To pay for it for more than ten years? This is How much hatred is there? Don’t you need money to buy those poisons? I’m afraid a chronic poison for more than ten years will require a lot of money, right?"
When Zhuxuan mentioned this, everyone immediately reacted.
After hearing so much, there was no longer any criticism and anger towards Princess An at the beginning, but only suspicion and glare towards Xia Zhilu, Miss Xia Er.
"It was the poison that was secretly administered by that servant! The Emperor has already decided the case. How dare you, a cheap servant, question the Emperor?!" Xia Zhilu gritted her teeth in anger and glared at the two guards who were firmly protecting Zhu Xuan behind her. She felt in her heart Already filled with anger.
Zhuxuan didn't answer Xia Zhilu's words at all, and just said to herself: "Although my princess is not from a famous family, her natal Sun family is also a big businessman. There are more than fifty shops all over Zhou Dynasty. The Lingshan Pavilion is now located The land deed belonged to the Sun family before."
Lingshan Pavilion was founded by Princess An, and people in the capital already knew it, so Zhuxuan was not worried about exposing anything.
Just listen to her continue: "The Sun family only has one daughter, the princess's mother. When three members of the Sun family suddenly passed away mysteriously, leaving only the princess alone, she was still in her infancy and could not do anything at all. As a result, the Sun family's property Everything fell into Master Xia’s hands.”
As soon as Zhuxuan said this, the faces of the onlookers who were already looking strange became even weirder.
No one expected that on this trip today, they would hear such explosive gossip? !
What does "the three members of the Sun family pass away mysteriously"?
All the Sun family's property is in Master Xia's hands?
Amid everyone's expectant gazes, Zhuxuan continued: "According to the rules, if a married woman dies, her dowry will not be taken back by her mother's family, but it will be returned to her children when they grow up. But my princess was already seventeen when she got married. Not to mention it has been two years since I turned fifteen and had hairpins, and even when I got married, the Sun family property was not handed over to the princess as a dowry according to the rules."
"It wasn't until the poisoning of my princess was exposed and the princess made a request to the emperor in the hall that the emperor issued an order and asked Mr. Xia to return the Sun family property that should have belonged to the princess!"
