Chapter 398: Ancient Dimension, Cannon Fodder Female Matching Whose Marriage Was Snatched Away by Co
She was originally thinking about when to expose the two of them to the public, but she didn't expect that before she took any action, Shi Shu was really exposed.
Miaomiao also knew Wenxuanlou. A poetry reading was held here every year, and it had been going on for more than 20 years, so it was almost a holy place in the hearts of many scholars.
But Wenxuanlou is actually also a restaurant. Miaomiao never expected that her ungrateful cousin would be so bold.
“Yes, it is said that a young man accidentally broke in while drunk, and when he sobered up and wanted to close the door, the door broke, making a lot of noise and attracting many people.
Then, the Bi family's shopkeeper happened to be drinking there and called her "Miss." Didn't that expose the whole thing? "
Miaomiao felt that this process was a bit too melodramatic and ridiculous.
Miaomiao asked someone to pack up her clothes and prepared to go watch the fun.
What could be more enjoyable than being right there with the melons? You might even get to speak on stage as a representative of the victims.
So, while Xiao Jingyuan was being treated by the imperial physician in the palace, Miaomiao changed into plain clothes and went to the Wenxuan Tower to watch a play...
Of course, if there were only a few scholars in Wenxuan Building, Prince Zhao's Mansion could still quickly suppress such public opinion.
But the problem was, besides the Bi family, the lame Marquis Long'an from the Princess's Mansion was also there...
The hatred between the two sides was so great that even Long An Hou's leg, although there was no evidence, was known to both sides because of Prince Zhao's mansion...
This is a feud that cannot be erased.
Originally, Marquis Long'an just thought that this was just a romantic affair of Xiao Yichen. Although he wanted to make a big deal out of it, it was only to embarrass him.
But until someone around mentioned that the person who was having an affair with Xiao Yichen was actually the cousin of Xiao Yichen's ex-fiancée, also surnamed Shi, and a member of the Shi family...
A few days ago, after His Majesty cancelled the engagement of Xiao Yichen, the prince of Zhao Palace, with a merchant family, many people laughed at Xiao Yichen.
His Majesty thinks that Xiao Yichen is not worthy of a merchant's daughter. This is a slap in the face.
The imperial edict even stated that the other party should not appear in front of the Shi family again, which was simply stomping on their faces.
Marquis Long'an heard someone mumbling around him, wondering if this counted as disobeying the imperial order.
He felt his heart beating extremely fast, and he quickly ordered people to spread the news, and also told his mother.
On that day, while people outside were still watching the excitement, the eldest princess had already dressed neatly and went directly to the palace to meet the emperor.
That’s not all. Several noble families that are on good terms with the Grand Princess’s Mansion have also begun to submit memorials to report today’s events, waiting to be presented to the emperor tomorrow.
Miaomiao hurried to Wenxuan Building and found that most people were gathered on the second floor.
The people in brown clothes seemed to be from the Princess's Mansion. They surrounded the entire second floor. When Miaomiao approached, she could see two beasts trapped inside and unable to get out.
Of course, people from Prince Zhao's mansion also arrived, and the atmosphere between the two sides was tense. One wanted to go out, and the other would not let him go.
Miaomiao walked closer and saw through the servants and guards that Shi Shu had disheveled hair, untidy clothes, and tears on her face as she snuggled tightly in Xiao Yichen's arms. She looked as if she had suffered a great injustice.
Honestly, my hands are a bit itchy...
It’s a bit like being a close-up bystander.
"Shi Shu, what on earth happened?!"
Miaomiao straightened her expression, pushed people aside and walked in.
"Cousin, I..."
After all, Shi Shu still cares about her reputation and has some sense of propriety and integrity in her heart. However, she hesitates to speak and frequently tries to get into the man's arms. It is simply a case of trying to cover up one's own faults.
"We were framed. I will take responsibility!"
Xiao Yichen had just been kicked by his father in the morning, and now he made a mistake in this matter. He could only keep a calm expression and pretend to be framed.
"Framed? Is there incense in this room, or are we all fools, able to have you transported to this private room without anyone noticing?
You have done such a shameful thing, so you can expect His Majesty to hold you accountable."
Marquis Long'an sneered before Miaomiao could speak.
His leg brought his political career to an end, so he hated the hypocritical people from Prince Zhao's Palace. It was a pity that although the prince and the eldest princess seemed equal, the prince's palace was superior in the end.
Now, he had the chance to drag Xiao Yichen to the ground and step on him, and he wanted to dance on the spot.
"Shi Shu, what do you want to say? Don't talk about other things.
You know who he belongs to.”
Miaomiao stood among the crowd, her eyes shining brightly, but to outsiders, she looked like a poor woman who had been betrayed doubly.
"Cousin, I'm sorry, although I was framed, we are indeed husband and wife.
I can only marry the prince."
Miaomiao nodded when she heard that, took two steps forward, and while Xiao Yichen wasn't reacting, slapped Shi Shu in the face.
She used her maximum strength and after swinging it out, when her arm turned back, she slapped Xiao Yichen in the face before he could react.
The faces of both of them swelled up quickly, and Xiao Yichen even stood up quickly and wanted to grab Miaomiao's hand.
Unfortunately, as Miaomiao has already lit up the luck column, Xiao Yichen, the "former male protagonist" who is unlucky and not blessed by heaven, falls flat on his face.
The belt that was barely tied on accidentally fell off, revealing half of her buttocks...
Miaomiao, however, was blinded by a piece of gauze that had fallen from somewhere. When she looked again, the other person had fainted on the spot with a flushed face...
Miaomiao took advantage of the chaos and left in an angry manner.
Just feel good now, and don’t worry about the storm behind you.
Shi Shu covered her face in anger and was about to say that she wanted to catch her cousin, but she saw her cousin running as fast as a rabbit.
The most important thing is that the prince's half-exposed butt was seen by people inside and outside, which was a complete disgrace to his face.
At the end of this farce, it was Prince Zhao who came hurriedly and brought a group of people to take the prince and the disheveled Shi Shu back to Prince Zhao's mansion.
This matter had become so serious that King Zhao did not dare to delay and directly rushed to the palace with his rebellious son.
As a result, in the palace, he encountered the eldest princess who came to complain...
-------------------------------------
Inside the palace, Xiao Jingyuan sat on the dragon bed with a stern expression. His majestic aura seemed to condense the air in the entire palace.
Xiao Shunzi listened to the report from below and spoke directly into Xiao Jingyuan's ear.
"Your Majesty, Prince Zhao and the Crown Prince have come to apologize and are waiting outside the palace. Also, the eldest princess has come with them to offer her remonstrance."
Xiao Jingyuan raised his eyes slightly, a barely perceptible coldness flashed in his eyes. After a moment of silence, he slowly spoke.
"Let the princess go back first, I am not feeling well.
As for Prince Zhao and the Crown Prince, since they say they have done something wrong, they should kneel outside first."
His tone was calm, yet revealed an unquestionable majesty, as if this simple sentence was the harshest sentence for those who had made a mistake.
Xiao Shunzi responded quickly and hurriedly retreated to convey the order.
Not long after, King Zhao and Xiao Yichen walked into the hall dejectedly and slowly knelt down in the center of the hall, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.
And this kneeling lasted all night...
