After marrying the vegetative prince, the doctor concubine killed people randomly

Chapter 291 The Truth

"I just want to ask, why did my mother beat Concubine Li and the Tenth Princess? Since she beat you, why didn't you arrest her on the spot, but sent someone to arrest her after she left?"

Concubine Li's heart trembled, she knew that Xie Liuzheng was going to settle the score with her!

She originally thought that it didn't matter if Cai Guidi wasn't caught, as long as she could get Emperor Jingyang to grant a marriage to Xie Liuzheng and Luo Qianxue, her goal would be achieved!

But who knew that Cheng Yaojin would appear halfway, Ji Yuntang and Xie Liuzheng would rush to the palace and stop it all.

Fortunately, Cai Guidi has not been found yet, so she can get a head start.

Thinking of this, Concubine Li's expression suddenly became gloomy, and she used a handkerchief to gently wipe away the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes.

But because of this action, she deliberately exposed her hands wrapped in gauze, looking very pitiful.

"Your Majesty, this is what happened. I heard that Madam Cai recently adopted Princess Ye as her goddaughter. Considering that I am also the mother of Princess Ye, we are related by marriage, so I thought of inviting Madam Cai to the Weiyang Palace for a gathering."

"Who would have thought that when Madam Cai arrived, she not only did not greet me and Xue'er, but she also said that Xue'er was as stupid as a pig and could not compare to Princess Ye in any cleverness. I was so angry that I had a quarrel with Madam Cai."

"During the argument, Madam Cai scolded me for being ugly and of low status, and said I was not worthy of sitting with her and drinking tea. That would have been fine, but she also poured the scalding hot tea on the back of my hand."

"Xue'er couldn't help but say a few words to Madam Cai, and she slapped her in the face. After that, she ran away. By the time I realized what was happening, she was gone."

"Look, there are five bright red finger marks on Xue'er's face!"

There were indeed five fingerprints on Luo Qianxue's face. Ji Yuntang had already discovered this when he came.

Although she put on makeup, it seemed like she deliberately left that space empty so that others could see the slap mark on her face.

When Luo Qianxue heard Concubine Li say this, she also started crying.

"Father, it's fine if Madam Cai doesn't like me, but she can't hit me no matter what. She's not only hitting me in the face, but also the face of the royal family. Please help me."

Before Emperor Jingyang could say anything, a cold voice sounded from outside the door.

"The emperor is very busy, and as the head of the harem, I should be the one to make the decisions on what happens in the harem."

Everyone turned around and saw the Queen and Luo Qingge walking in from the door of the Yangxin Palace.

Next to them stood Mrs. Cai with a calm expression on her face.

The Queen walked up to Concubine Li, paused for a moment, and cast a meaningful look on her face.

"I heard that Concubine Li and the Tenth Princess were bullied, so the Emperor arranged for the Imperial Guards to capture Madam Cai everywhere in the palace?"

"What a coincidence! When my maid from Fengyi Palace went out to pick flowers, she ran into Madam Cai in the Imperial Garden. I have brought her to you. If you want to know what grievances Sister Li and the Tenth Princess have suffered, please bring out the evidence in person."

Concubine Li's heart skipped a beat. She turned around and was met with Madam Cai's cold and indifferent face. The coldness in her eyes seemed to be mocking her.

Concubine Li immediately stretched out her hand wrapped in gauze.

"Madam Cai scalded my hand with tea and slapped Xue'er. The injuries on my and Xue'er's bodies are evidence."

Madam Cai sneered: "Empress Li is really good at turning the tables."

"You broke the teacup and got burned. What does this have to do with me?"

"Also, I don't know where the slap mark on Princess Ten's face came from."

"I only know that when I was leaving, the Tenth Princess put a knife to her neck and threatened me to let Zheng'er marry her."

"When I left, there was no slap mark on Princess Ten's face at all."

Luo Qianxue jumped out immediately, "You are talking nonsense, who else but you dare to hit this princess in Weiyang Palace?"

No matter how stupid she was, she knew that she had to bite the bullet and not admit it.

Otherwise, the emperor and the empress would definitely punish her.

Ji Yuntang had been listening nearby, and at this moment she probably already had the answer in her mind.

However, Luo Qianxue is still stubborn and we need evidence to prove this matter.

Ji Yuntang walked to Luo Qianxue's side and his eyes fell on the slap mark on her right cheek.

"Tenth sister, you said my mother hit you, then tell me, which hand did she use to hit you?"

"Right hand!" Luo Qianxue insisted without even thinking!

Generally speaking, a person's right hand is much stronger than their left hand, and the right hand is used much more frequently than the left hand.

Most people will use their right hand first when slapping, and there is nothing wrong with that.

But Luo Qianxue said it was the right hand, so there is a problem!

In order to prevent anyone from cheating, Ji Yuntang asked again.

"Tenth sister, are you sure my mother hit you with her right hand, not her left?"

Luo Qianxue just felt that she was deliberately stalling for time. She said impatiently: "I am very sure that Madam Cai hit me with her right hand!"

The next second, a slap hit Luo Qianxue hard in the face.

He beat her so hard that she fell to the ground.

Luo Qianxue was stunned for two seconds. After she reacted, she stared at Ji Yuntang with eyes wide open, wishing she could pounce on her and strangle her to death.

"You dare to hit me? What right do you have to hit me?"

The slap made her head buzz, and Luo Qianxue felt that the left half of her face began to go numb.

Ji Yuntang hit her with much more force than Concubine Li.

Ji Yuntang withdrew her hand and went forward to help Luo Qianxue, but Luo Qianxue slapped her hand away.

"Don't touch me, you bitch!"

Ji Yuntang was not angry either. She retracted her hand and said a little embarrassedly: "Tenth sister, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean it."

"As we all know, practice is the only criterion for testing truth. You said my mother hit you with her right hand, and I just hit you with my right hand, so why did my mother hit you on the right side of your face with her right hand, but I hit you on the left side of your face with my right hand?"

Luo Qingge reacted at this time, and she felt that this loophole was really obvious.

Luo Qianxue is so stupid!

Luo Qingge said: "People are standing opposite each other. If Madam Cai hits you with her right hand, it must be the left cheek, not the right cheek."

"Unless, the slap on your face was given by her left hand."

Luo Qianxue's heart trembled. She was only nervous for a moment and then regained her composure.

She gritted her teeth and said, "I just remembered it wrong. She hit me with her left hand. I said the wrong thing because I didn't know what to say."
