“Is that what you mean, Second Sister? If that’s what you mean, I have something to ask you!” Shao Wanru said with a smile. There was a confident expression on her face and she was not nervous at all.

“I… I didn’t say… I don’t know…” Shao Jie’er’s lips trembled. She was anxious when seeing everyone looking at her. Especially the extremely beautiful eyes of Chu Liuchen looked at her with a smile.

Just now, Prince Chen and Prince Zhou’s words were in Shao Jie’er’s ears. Prince Chen forced Prince Zhou to be speechless, which was firmly imprinted in Shao Jie’er’s mind. The contempt in his words made Shao Jie’er very scared.

He didn’t even care about Prince Zhou Your highness, let alone her.

Shao Wanru turned to Empress Dowager and said, “Second Sister said that I poured a glass of wine for her. After she drank it, something happened. Empress Dowager, please send someone to check the wine in the pavilion. Is there anything wrong? Please also check the wine cup!”

“Someone comes to bring all the things here and let the imperial physician check them!” This method was very reasonable. Empress Dowager nodded and ordered in a cold voice.

The palace servants answered and left quickly. They took people to fetch all the fruits and snacks in the pavilion, as well as the wine and wine glasses placed there.

Looking at Shao Wanru, who was calm and peaceful on the opposite side, Chu Liuyue felt his eyebrows suddenly twitched uneasily. He had a bad feeling. He had asked someone to throw away the cup before and they had thrown it into the lake. It could be said that when they fell into the lake, they accidentally knocked it down. So they could not find the cup.

In the past, he also wanted to destroy the evidence. He knew a part of the truth.

But at the moment, he felt that this cup was a flaw. There was a flaw in whether he threw it or not. Shao Yanru was really stupid this time, unlike her usual character.

If she let go of the matter now and didn’t let Shao Jie’er say something like that, it would just be an accident. If this was over, it would not be to the extent of investigating things. But now, she made what he had done before become a failure.

Chu Liuyue naturally knew that the reason why Shao Jie’er implied Shao Wanru in her words was Shao Yanru’s idea. There was a trace of displeasure in his eyes. Shao Yanru was not such a person in the past. How could she use such a stupid trick?

Although Chu Liuyue was scheming, he was not a woman. He would not know that Shao Yanru had been defeated by Shao Wanru again and again. Since she failed again and again, not only would she not do anything to Shao Wanru, but also her reputation would be ruined, so that her thoughts of high position would be ruined.

She had to attend the Beauty Contest in person. Since she didn’t know the final result, she had to go all out. It was all because of Shao Wanru.

How could Shao Yanru not hate her? This time, she was going to destroy the remaining hope of her. If she married Chu Qing, there would be no future left for her. How could she be willing?

The hatred in her heart was piled up, which made Shao Yanru lose the calm that she used to have when she had hoped to gain a high position. It was the reason why she dealt with Shao Wanru in person this time. Now it was also the reason why she asked Shao Jie’er to drag Shao Wanru into this matter. She wished that Shao Wanru would die in front of her and be trampled by her.

The palace servants came back very quickly and took the things to the side hall. The imperial physician had been waiting there for a long time. After checking, he reported the result to the Empress Dowager.

“Report to Empress Dowager, melon, fruit and desserts, as well as the wine in the pot that is placed on one side contain nothing unusual. They are all ordinary things!” The palace maid came in and reported.

Chu Liuyue’s eyes relaxed. This result was the best one.

“Imperial Grandmother, when I was going to visit the garden with my second brother and Commandery Prince Qing, I specially told them to prepare these things along the way. Originally, I thought when we were tired of walking, I could sit down with my younger brothers to have a talk. It’s rare that the sun is not bad today!” Chu Liuyue stood up with a smile and explained.

“Wasn’t it arranged by Honored Consort Shu?” Empress Dowager turned to Honored Consort Shu who was silent beside her.

“Empress, it’s not me. I just asked them to walk around in the garden and didn’t arrange everything in a big way. There were too many sisters who came to the palace for fun. What’s more, there were several princes. Although Duke Xing’s Mansion is favored by the emperor, after all, they are just the daughters of ministers. I’m afraid that it’s inappropriate to arrange everything in a big way!”

Honored Consort Shu also stood up quickly and bowed deeply to Empress Dowager.

She had to explain clearly that it was an accident. It had been arranged before. She wanted to make use of all kinds of accidents to make Shao Wanru have an accident. However, she didn’t expect that it was Shao Yanru who had it. She also didn’t expect that Shao Jie’er would be blamed for this. Honored Consort Shu really regretted it at this time.

If she had known this would happen, she would not have been involved in the things of Duke Xing’s Mansion.

She saw that Chu Liuchen was uncomfortable, so she wanted to hurt him to avenge her child. She thought it was Chu Liuchen’s mother who hurt her child, but she also knew that Chu Liuchen was not easy to deal with. For so many years, she had been enduring and looking for opportunities. This time, she thought that the opportunity had been found, but she did not expect to meet such bad helpers.

What was Duke Xing’s Mansion doing? From Old Madam of Duke Xing’s Mansion to the pair of sisters from the Shao Family in front of her, everyone was stupid!

At this time, they just needed to tell the truth. Why was there something else in her words that Shao Wanru had ulterior motives and wanted to frame Shao Jie’er?

Honored Consort Shu and Chu Liuyue also thought in the same way at this time. They both thought that Shao Yanru did something unnecessary. Not only would it not have any effect, but it might even backfire. After all, they also felt guilty in their hearts. Shao Yanru was in trouble, but Shao Jie’er was in charge now. To be honest, they would be responsible for it.

“How many cups do you find?” Shao Wanru suddenly asked.

“There are… three!” The palace maid thought for a moment and answered. There were restrictions on the sets of cups in the palace. There were not many sets of them. Usually, there were four sets. In her last life, Shao Wanru had lived in the palace and knew about it.

Shao Wanru asked with a little interest, “Since it was prepared early, why didn’t you prepare a set of them? Were there only three cups everywhere?”

“Just check more, or maybe Big Brother thought there were only three people, so he asked someone to prepare only three cups!” Chu Liuchen interrupted casually.

They had prepared in a lot of places, and there was no time for them to take off a cup in other places.

“It can’t be three cups; it must be four. I always prepared a set of them when I asked someone to prepare them before.” Chu Liuyue said thoughtfully, and then his eyes suddenly flashed. It seemed that he suddenly thought of something, and his face changed slightly. “One cup lost, how could there be one missing!”

If this matter was exposed by others, it would be better for him to reveal it by himself.

When Shao Wanru mentioned the cups, Chu Liuyue had already made up his mind. He couldn’t fall into a passive position and had to take the initiative.

“A cup missing? Empress Dowager, I didn’t touch the cup when I left. I just stayed in the pavilion for a while. Besides, nothing happened to my second sister at that time, so I couldn’t take a cup away. My second sister said that she drank a cup of wine, but in fact, she didn’t. When I was in the pavilion, I couldn’t pour wine. And even if I poured the wine, I couldn’t take the cup away!”

Shao Wanru said calmly, “As for after I left, I didn’t know that my Big Sister came here. When I went out for a while, I saw my Big Sister. If I really did something in the wine, if my Big Sister didn’t come, this thing would inevitably fall on me. How dare I do such a thing!”

If she really put poison in Shao Jie’er’s wine, Shao Jie’er was fine after drinking it, but she had something wrong after Shao Yanru came. This meant that there was something wrong with Shao Jie’er’s words.

If it was not to frame Shao Jie’er, there was no need to poison her. Since she had put poison, how could there be nothing wrong? What was more, Shao Jie’er was fine after she left. How could she have the ability to predict the future and knew that Shao Jie’er would have an accident when Shao Yanru came over?

If nothing had happened to Shao Yanru, it would have definitely been Shao Wanru’s fault!

Her words sounded calm, but in fact, they were aggressive. For a while, the hall became silent. Everyone’s suspicious eyes fell on Shao Yanru and Shao Jie’er.

Could it be that there was another mystery behind this matter?

Shao Yanru gnashed her teeth in hatred, but she couldn’t tell others that she had drugged Shao Wanru in the carriage and been changed by Shao Wanru. She couldn’t explain clearly what had happened in front of her, and she even let Shao Wanru take the benefit. How could she not hate her!

The venom in her heart almost dripped out, but she had to maintain the blank expression on her face as if she just knew it now. Then she turned her eyes to Shao Jie’er and asked softly, “Second sister… you… did you remember wrongly?”

Shao Jie’er was in a panic. She could only look at Shao Yanru in panic. However, when she saw Shao Yanru turn around and glare at her fiercely, she immediately reacted. She held her head with both hands and squatted down, crying. “I… I don’t know. I really don’t know. At that time, I seemed to be very dizzy and I couldn’t remember anything clearly. It seemed that there was such a thing, but it didn’t seem to be like this…”

“Second Sister, you don’t know whether this is true or not but just say it. Don’t you know that such words will kill people?” Shao Wanru looked at Shao Jie’er, who was anxious and scared and said slowly.

She looked calm as if she was talking about other people’s affairs. However, her calm eyes made Shao Jie’er more and more afraid. Was the person in front of her really Shao Wanru, who had been brought up in the Yuhui Nunnery for three years? She had never known that Shao Wanru was so horrible that she was forced to go to the road of death.

She was the future wife of Commandery Prince Qing. Even if her Big Sister had repeatedly ordered her to do so, she could not hold on any longer. “Fifth Sister, I’m sorry. I… I might have wronged you. I… I have a headache… After falling into the water, I’ve always had a headache… It’s very uncomfortable…”

She held her head tightly with her hands. Shao Jie’er was in great pain, which made people feel that she was in a bad situation at this moment.

She wanted to escape what she had said before.

“Empress Dowager, Second Sister is so uncomfortable. Can you ask the imperial physician to take a look at her?” Shao Wanru pleaded with Empress Dowager. The imperial physician had just gone to the side hall, but the Empress Dowager had not ordered him to leave at this time.

“Ok!” Empress Dowager’s words made many people present feel nervous…
