Chapter 1091: Proving Innocence
d that men were inherently superior to women. Even the most capable woman should be subservient to men.So, when he discovered that his escape destination was the Phoenix Nest Kingdom, he had a vague p...In fact, after a night of observation, the three Wei brothers had already determined that Lianyi's body showed no abnormalities. However, to ensure that Lianyi was not concealing anything, under the instruction of their eldest brother, Wei X Xuan stepped forward and took Lianyi's pulse.
After a full quarter of an hour, Wen Shixuan finally withdrew his hand and shook his head at his older brother.
Then the ripples slowly opened their mouth and said:
"Young Master Wen, may I be released now"
Of course, we apologize for the intrusion.
Wen Shiru bowed his hands in greeting.
Wen Shi-go gestured for the person behind him to open the dungeon door.
After leaving the dungeon, Lian Yi finally turned her head to look at Qing Lan in the other room. The latter was expressionless, staring intently at her, as if trying to read something from her face like a blooming flower.
Now, it is this lady's turn to prove her innocence, isn't it
Ripples turned to face Wen Shige.
"Miss Hua, how do you prove your innocence"
"Bring out this fifth concubine."
Ripple said.
Wen Shige looked at his elder brother. His elder brother nodded, and he waved his hand. The jailer guarding Qing Lan's cell immediately opened the cell door.
Qinglan stood up, but did not walk out.
Ripple wasn't in such a good mood. With a flick of her wrist, she shot out a transparent thread that wrapped around Qinglan and effortlessly pulled him out.
"Borrow your sword for a while."
The ripples said to the guard beside him.
Wen Shige's eyes narrowed, and he handed his sword to Lianyi. This surprised both Wen Shirui and Wen Xi Xuan.
Thank you, Second Master Wen!
"You want to kill me and silence me."
Qinglan struggled and twisted, but it was all in vain. He could only say this.
"No, you must live. You must live to prove my innocence."
Ripples suddenly flashed a faint smile at Qinglan, then with a wrist flip, the sword in her hand struck the opponent.
"Rip" echoed in the dungeon, the sound of fabric tearing.
"Stop! Stop!!!"
Qinglan seemed to realize something and started struggling desperately, trying to dodge the sword in Lianri's hand.
After a moment, the dungeon echoed with gasps and low moans.
Wen Shirui and Wen Shige's faces were strange, while Wen Xi Xuan's was flushed red. They looked at Qing Lan who was almost completely naked, as if they had discovered something new and interesting.
"Qinglan, with your body that is neither male nor female, how could you give birth to a child Or rather, who would bear a child for you"
You don't even have children, so how could I threaten you with your son
If you're going to frame me, come up with a plausible reason and be ready to handle the consequences if you get caught.
The ripples on his face were faint, he stepped forward and pinched the other person's chin, directly dislocating their jaw, and said coldly:
"Don't provoke me!"
When Qinglan heard this, his pupils constricted. He knew who the other party was, but unfortunately, no one would believe him if he said anything now.
"Take it down!"
Wen Shige glanced at the ripples, then addressed the black-armored guard beside him.
Yes, Master!
Two guards flanked Qing Lan, dragging him away.
Liàn Yī then returned the sword to Wēn Shìgē:
"Thank you for your help, Er Gongzi!"
Wintersteel drew his sword back and finally spoke:
"Miss Hua is truly composed, I'm ashamed of myself in comparison!"
"You flatter me, I just think what's real can't be fake, and what's fake can't be real. With the Wen family's capabilities, they will definitely give me justice."
Miss Hua, how did you know he was...
Wen Shixuan didn't know what to call Qing Lan for a moment.
Is he intersex
Ripple smiled and replied.
"Yes, how did you know"
"The moment I first saw him, I knew."
"How did you tell We never suspected Lady Five's sexuality."
Wen Shixuan continued to ask, he was just too curious.
I said it before, my nose is very sensitive. Men and women have different smells, or different body odors.
This is the first time I've smelled two different scents on the same person, not because of deliberate powdering, but emanating from within.
At that time, I suspected him, but after all, he was the fifth mistress of your esteemed family. Even if I said so, you probably wouldn't believe me as an outsider.
And I heard he was rescued by the head of the Wen family and taken under their protection at Wenjia Fort, becoming the fifth mistress. At least the head of the Wen family should know his true background.
Ripple helplessly spread his hands.
This time, the three of them remained silent. After all, that was their father, his wife - they generally kept a distance from her.
Wen Shi-ge directly changed the subject:
"After failing to assassinate the patriarch, he framed you as the mastermind to drag you down."
"That's probably right."
But I saw him looking utterly convinced, certain that you would succumb to the poison.
Wen Shixuan raised an eyebrow.
Does the Third Master remember that on the second day after Miss Liu's death, Fifth Mistress had once searched my residence in the outer courtyard
Ripples help the other person recall memories.
She took the opportunity to poison you.
Wen Shixuan could only think of this possibility.
"Yes, Third Young Master should be more clear than me. Medicine and poison are two sides of the same coin."
A ripple smiled, her lips curving into a gentle curve.
Why wasn't I told
Wen Shirui suddenly asked.
"Since he's already been discovered by me, he naturally won't succeed. I can solve this, it's not a big deal to trouble Master Wen with such small matters."
Ripple explained.
In fact, all three understood that even if Miss Hua knew her residence had been poisoned and knew who did it, she wouldn't tell them. After all, at the time, the fifth concubine represented the Wen family fortress.
"Since it wasn't Miss Hua who threatened Qielan, then someone else must be responsible."
After Wen Shige finished speaking, he exchanged glances with Wen Shirui, and then bowed his hands:
"Let me question Qing Lan first. Third brother, come with me."
After that, the two of them left in a hurry.
Wen Shiru personally sent Lianyi away from the dungeon and returned her to Zizhu Courtyard.
"Miss Hua, I apologize for startling you today. Please rest first, and I'll tell you the results of the investigation tomorrow."
Okay, thank you for your hard work, Wen Ge.
Ripple smiled softly and watched Wen Shiru leave before turning to enter the guest room.
Miss Hua, are you busy
Spring and Summer Solstice have arrived, pay respect.
"I'm fine, please help me bathe and change."
"Yes!"
The ripples went back unscathed, but Qing Lan was worse for wear, living as if dead. Under the effects of the enhanced Zhenyan Tang, he told Wen Xiguo everything he knew.
Wen Shixuan, standing beside him, looked at his second older brother and didn't know how to comfort him for a moment.
"Second Brother"
"Shixuan, come with me to catch someone."
Wen Shige calmly turned and left the interrogation room.
"Second brother, wait for me."
When the two brothers, along with their men, stormed into Xiyun Garden, they only saw the maidservants and guards lying unconscious on the ground. Hong Linger had vanished without a trace.
"The entire castle is on high alert. All guards are to apprehend Hong Ling'er."
Wen Shi-go immediately ordered.
"Yes!"
As Lin was having her evening meal, she heard the chime of a bell. An incense stick later, a barrier suddenly rose on the back mountain of Wen's Manor. She sensed several powerful auras sweeping past Zizhu Courtyard and rushing toward the back mountain.
"Spring has arrived. Has anything important happened in the fort"
"I don't know."
"How could you not know"urrent state, he will inevitably need our care in the future, so this is him preparing ahead of time!Otherwise, with his stingy nature, he wouldn't have been willing to spend five dollars. Back when R...
