Chapter 229: The Princess ordered someone to beat Mr. Liang
After attaching the mantra talisman to Xie Ying, Xie Lan immediately began to question her in front of everyone.
"Xie Ying, did I drug you?"
Liu didn't expect Xie Lan to question her in public. She was very surprised, but she also hoped that Xie Ying would expose the fact that Xie Lan had harmed her.
It's a pity that she is destined to be disappointed.
Xie Ying shook her head, "No, Big Sister didn't hurt me."
Liu couldn't accept it at all. She pointed at Xie Lan and said angrily, "It's impossible. Ying'er has always been kind and never made enemies with others. No one would harm her except you."
"Ying'er, is it because your elder sister threatened you that you dare not identify her? Don't be afraid, there are so many people here. As long as you tell us who drugged you, your father will definitely seek justice for you."
Seeing everyone pointing and talking, Xie Lan simply did not stop them and let Liu urge him on.
But no matter how she asked, Xie Ying said that it was not Xie Lan who harmed her.
Xie Ying wanted to point out Xie Lan, but unfortunately, she was controlled by the talisman and couldn't say anything.
Liu refused to give up, and Xie Lan saw that the time had come, so he asked Tiechui to press her mute point, and then continued questioning her.
"Second sister, why did you leave the banquet hall?"
Although Xie Ying was labeled with a truth talisman, she was still rational and naturally didn't want to tell the truth.
But she couldn't control her mouth at all.
"The Princess's Mansion is short of money, and Princess Huaining is attracted by my elder sister's ability in gambling on stones, and wants to make her a concubine for Mr. Liang.
But Master Liang was a fool, and the princess was worried that her father would not marry her eldest sister to him.
So he secretly asked the maid to put aphrodisiac in the wine that the eldest sister drank, hoping to make it a fait accompli for Mr. Liang.
Once the eldest sister's innocence is ruined, she can be carried into the princess's mansion.
From now on, you can rely on your gambling skills to earn a steady stream of money for the Princess's Mansion."
"I don't like my eldest sister, so I wanted to go over and see her being abused by Mr. Liang with my own eyes, so I left the banquet hall."
Xie Ying's words caused everyone present to explode with excitement, and they all started talking about it.
Princess Huaining angrily rebuked, "That's just nonsense. Although the Princess's Mansion is not as rich as a country, it is not short of money. I believe that everyone who came to the banquet has seen what the Princess's Mansion is like today."
Everyone believed what Xie Ying said just now, but now they felt that what Princess Huaining said made sense.
However, some perceptive ladies noticed that Princess Huaining was obviously surprised when she saw that Xie Lan was not in the house but outside.
It is not surprising that the princess's mansion is short of money. Although Princess Huaining has a fief, it is not much. The princess's mansion has always been extravagant in spending, so it is normal for it to spend more than it earns.
Everyone saw Miss Xie's skill in gambling on stones today, so it's no surprise that Princess Huaining would be interested in her.
After all, it looked like Miss Xie didn't drink any aphrodisiac.
Moreover, from what they saw today, the grandeur of the princess's mansion showed its wealth everywhere, and it didn't look like the mansion was short of money.
Seeing that many people had begun to believe what she said, Princess Huaining followed up.
"Besides, if I really asked the maid to drug Miss Xie, then why is she fine, and it was Miss Xie who got the drug instead?"
"You'll have to ask the maids in your princess's mansion about this."
As soon as Tiechui swung his sword, Dongqing fell to his knees in fright.
"Don't kill me, I confess. Princess Huaining originally asked me to drug Miss Xie.
But I was nervous and made a mistake, and poured the wine with aphrodisiac into Miss Xie's cup."
"Are you lying, maid? I remember you poured me some wine, so why was it okay after I drank it?"
"I didn't lie. I was holding a mother-and-child pot in my hand at that time, so the wine that Miss Xie and Madam drank was fine." The princess didn't expect Dong Qing to dare to disregard her parents' lives and confess in public.
"Dong Qing is clearly threatened by you, the master and the servant, and she has to say whatever you tell her to say.
Her words are totally unreliable.”
"I think the two girls from your Xie family were attracted by the wealth of my princess's mansion, but they knew they were too low to marry into it, so they teamed up to set up a trap and wanted to take advantage of my son."
Xie Lan almost rolled his eyes, "Princess, don't you feel guilty for saying this? If Young Master Liang is still the noble young master he used to be, it would make sense for us to want to get close to the princess's mansion.
But what is his situation now? Do you think anyone will believe you if you say we have to rely on him? "
Princess Huaining was speechless after being questioned.
After hearing what the two said, everyone couldn't help but become curious.
What did Miss Xie mean by that? What’s going on with Mr. Liang?
Didn't he say he was sick? Could there be something special? Although they saw Mr. Liang just now, they only saw his back on the bed.
Seeing that everyone was hindered by the princess's power, no one dared to ask, and they could only secretly peek into the room.
Xie Lan simply did his best to be kind and winked at Tiechui.
Since we are just eating melons, how can we hide it? We should put everything out there to make it feel good.
Tiechui understood what he meant with just one look, and quickly walked into the house. He saw that the servant had already helped Liang Yuanluo put on his clothes and was about to pull him out.
Unexpectedly, before he could make a move, Liang Yuanluo suddenly pushed the servant away, turned around and ran out.
Ever since Liang Yuanluo was beaten stupid by Xiao Hongqing, Princess Huaining never allowed him to appear in public again in order to prevent the princess's mansion from being laughed at.
The servant was terrified and got up to chase him back.
Unfortunately it's too late.
Liang Yuanluo had already run outside, dancing and grinning foolishly at the guests.
Everyone present was stunned to see that he was completely different from before, with a dull expression and drooling, no longer looking like the noble young man he used to be.
"Oh my God, how did Mr. Liang become like this? What disease does he have?"
"This isn't a disease, this is a fool."
The son-in-law Liang Wenhao looked very unhappy. Seeing his son being pointed at by others, he wanted to get angry, but he was worried that it would make the reputation of the princess's mansion even worse.
I had to hold back my anger and come out to smooth things over.
“Xie Xiao-Miss, no matter how wrong it is, it’s all our Princess Mansion’s fault.
As the saying goes, all parents in the world are compassionate. Ever since our Luo'er's brain was damaged by a high fever, the princess has been in pain and inevitably has acted inappropriately.
I apologize to you on behalf of the Princess's Mansion. Please forgive her this time because of how much the Princess loves her son."
After a pause, thinking of Xie Ying, the prince consort continued, "Since the second young lady and my son are already husband and wife, our princess's mansion will make plans to marry her off and bring her home to be Luo'er's legal wife.
Although the second young lady has been wronged, the princess and I will definitely treat her as our own daughter in the future.
The princess and I only have Luo'er as our child, and everything in the princess's mansion will be left to the second young lady."
Some ladies thought it was very rare for a prince consort to be able to do this, and they also said,
"The princess is also a loving mother, she did this just to find a wife for her son.
Marrying Mr. Liang as the second daughter is still too high for her. "
If the princess didn't want to harm him, Xie Lan wouldn't want to meddle in other people's business, but now, she was afraid that she would not let him go.
In this case, she naturally has to strike first.
"A loving mother's heart? This is simply a huge joke. The reason why Mr. Liang became stupid is that the princess ordered people to beat him stupid..."
