RPAGF Chapter 238 [Fuyao 23]
Chapter 238 [Fuyao 23]
"Who here has a meridian worm? Who would be bored enough to carry that kind of thing?" Tang Zhirong said.
"I did bring a meridian worm with me today, which may come in handy." said Lord Chen.
"Thank you, Lord Chen, for your help." Changsun Wuji said.
After that, a servant placed the Ziwu worm in the middle of the Shuiling Mirror, which reflected what had happened to the Ziwu worm in the past hour.
Gao Puruo said, "In order to prove my innocence, I will go first."
Then, Gao Puruo walked forward to the center of the mirror. The mirror reflected Gao Puruo's embarrassing moments in the past hour, and everyone burst into laughter.
Gao Puruo was a little embarrassed when he saw this. "I have already proved my innocence. Now it's time for Huan'er, the maidservant beside Madam De, to take the stage."
Jian Xue said, "I think Madam De also needs to verify it. Madam De, please."
Tang Zhirong felt very guilty, because if she was tested, she would definitely be finished, so she said, "Why don't you let Madam Shu test it first? After all, Madam Shu will be attending the banquet quite late."
After hearing this, Fuyao was embarrassed. She remembered what Yalanzhu had told her not to get close to the glass, otherwise the disguise would fail. "Madam De, please go first. After all, you are more suspicious than me. Why bother to argue about you going first and me going second?"
Tang Zhirong said, "Oh? Really? Madam Shu is guilty and doesn't dare to verify it."
"Who said that? I'm upright so I'm not afraid of my shadow being crooked." Fu Yao said.
The ministers said, "If that's the case, then Madam Shu should start quickly and don't waste our time."
Fu Yao glanced at Changsun Wuji, expecting him to help her, but Changsun Wuji ignored Fu Yao's request for help.
Fuyao had no choice but to go ahead and walk towards the Shui Ling Mirror with heavy steps.
Youyou knew that Fuyao had disguised herself, so she cast a spell to make the Shuiling Mirror see what everyone wanted to see.
Fu Yao was very puzzled when she saw that her disguise was not discovered, and she thought it was a fake mirror.
Seeing this, Jian Xue said, "Madam Shu is not a suspect. Madam De, why don't you go up and prove your innocence? Everyone has proven their innocence, and you are the only one left. Don't you dare?"
Tang Zhirong was somewhat reluctant, so she turned to Zhangsun Wuji and said coquettishly, "Your Majesty, I..."
"Go, I believe in you." Changsun Wuji patted Tang Zhirong on the shoulder and said meaningfully.
Tang Zhirong had nowhere to turn to, and His Majesty was unwilling to help her. But as long as she stood in front of the mirror, she would be exposed, and she would be finished. What should she do? What should she do?
Fuyao said, "Didn't Sister De let me go first just now? Why is it that Sister De doesn't dare to do it now that I have proven my innocence? Could it be that Sister De is the murderer?"
"How could that be? I've been sitting here the whole time and I don't have time to commit the crime." Tang Zhirong felt a little unconfident.
"You didn't have the time to commit the crime, but your maid might have had it, and my maid was not in the hall for a while." Jian Xue said.
"You...you...it's just a broken water spirit mirror. What's so great about it? I'll go test it now." Tang Zhirong said.
Tang Zhirong walked towards the Shui Ling Mirror carefully. When she was almost in front of the Shui Ling Mirror, she was prepared to pretend to fall accidentally, and then use the momentum to knock the Shui Ling Mirror down. This way, her suspicion could be cleared and she could pretend to be careless.
Youyou knew Tang Zhirong's plan and predicted her next step. Before Tang Zhirong fell, she used magic to catch her and successfully restored her to her position.
Tang Zhirong was a little angry. She was obviously just one step away from success, but now she failed. Falling once could be considered as not standing properly, but if it happened again, it would be intentional.
Youyou smiled and said, "Madam De, you won't blame me, will you? I saw you about to fall just now, so I helped you. You don't have to thank me. I did this to help you. Now it's all right, you can verify it with peace of mind."
Tang Zhirong gnashed her teeth and said, "Thank you so much, I almost thought I was going to fall down. If I had fallen on the Shuiling Mirror, I might have been disfigured. I especially thank Miss Qi for your help."
"You're welcome. I would help even if it was someone else." Youyou said.
When Zong Yue saw this situation, he really wanted to laugh. Youyou was being too mean. This was just poking someone in the heart. But he couldn't blame his own wife, so Zong Yue just watched the show from the side.
"Look, look, it's out..." someone shouted.
"It is indeed Madam Shu. I didn't expect her to be this kind of person."
"Tsk tsk tsk, women have the most vicious hearts."
"As the saying goes, three women make a drama. It seems better to marry one woman."
“How vicious.”
……
"Tang Zhirong, what do you have to explain? I have been so good to you, but I didn't expect you to be this kind of person who frames other concubines out of jealousy." Changsun Wuji said in pretended pain.
"Your Majesty, I... I just love Your Majesty too much. Please forgive me." Tang Zhirong said as she knelt on the ground, hoping in her heart that His Majesty would forgive her for having served her for so long.
"The criminal Tang Zhirong will be stripped of her status as Madam De, demoted to a commoner, and sent to the cold palace, Cuiliang Palace." Changsun Wuji said.
Then, Tang Zhirong was taken away by the guards. As she was dragged out, she kept shouting, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I just love you too much, Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
