Chapter 653 Disputes, Flaws in the Perfect Plan

The two maidservants were scared by Mo Xuetong’s words and almost collapsed on the ground, trembling all over. They didn’t expect that Mo Xuetong would say those words. They already had a guilty conscience—when Mo Xuetong came to the garden, she didn’t let them wait on her at all. Even their superior did not know about this.

The two had been hiding in a corner, just in case their superior found out that they had been driven out by Consort Xuan. How could they notice if Consort Xuan had left? This was originally unexpected. They didn’t even know the appearance of the Sixth Princess in advance. They hid in the dark and saw clearly that the Sixth Princess went in that direction proficiently after going through the door.

There was no one to lead the way. She looked as if she had taken that way several times!

When the Sixth Princess was gone, they saw their superior, so they ran out of the dark, pretending that they had waited on Consort Xuan. Their superior had no idea that Consort Xuan had driven them out of the garden. So she didn’t know that there was such a fatal blow. Since the two maidservants only took Mo Xuetong in and didn’t wait on her by her side, then the words that Mo Xuetong asked them to pass the message was a lie.

“This, we, we really had been waiting on Her Lady!” The tall maidservant reacted quickly, and insisted through gritted teeth. The only one who could prove that they were not waiting on Consort Xuan was her maidservants, but their words were not admissible as evidence.

As long as they insisted that when the Sixth Princess came, Consort Xuan was there, who could prove that they were lying?

Ling Mingyan couldn’t bear it anymore. She slapped the table beside her violently and scolded, “You bastard, tell me, who told you to frame Consort Xuan? Did someone deliberately plot something and break into this place?” She had endured it until now. Seeing that the two maidservants insisted, she was filled with hatred, as she looked coldly and bitterly at the Sixth Princess and Duchess Mingguo beside her.

Although she was a little confused, she was by no means stupid. Thinking that the Seventh Princess and Consort Xuan talked about the marriage between the two countries, she understood. Someone made this farce on purpose, and the most beneficiary of this matter was the Sixth Princess!

As long as You Yuecheng acknowledged this accident, the Sixth Princess would be able to marry into Mingguo Manor. Naturally, the Seventh Princess would marry Crown Prince Xieyue. As for the Sixth Princess, after she entered Mingguo Manor, what should she do? Ling Mingyan was not arrogant enough to think that she could suppress the Sixth Princess.

Even if the Sixth Princess would marry into Mingguo Manor as a co-wife, she couldn’t suppress her!

At the thought of this, Ling Mingyan’s eyes almost turned red.

How could she be willing to share her husband whom she finally married with another woman? Besides, this person would defeat her. There were some things that everyone understood even if they didn’t say it. Because of Mo Xuetong, it was suspicious, making the whole incident look more like a long-premeditated plan.

“Ladies, actually, when I went in, there were still maidservants at the door. Seeing me coming, they insisted to invite me in. After I entering the garden, these two maidservants wanted to wait on me. I thought that there would be many guests today, and I should not ask the two people to stay by my side, so I didn’t let them wait on me. After walking around in the Osmanthus Garden, I saw a side door and walked out. After asking a maidservant on the way, I went to see Marquise. As I sat there and chatted for a while, the Seventh Princess also arrived, and she said that the Sixth Princess wanted to stay in the Osmanthus Garden to admire the scenery.”

Mo Xuetong explained in a soft and gentle voice.

“Actually, My Lady was already with Marquise when Sixth Princess entered the Osmanthus Garden. I don’t know why you said that she asked the maidservant to tell Sixth Princess to come here because she didn’t want others to disturb her quietness!” Mo Yu concluded, and the words contained mockery.

Everyone in this room was shrewd and influential. How could they not understand the meaning of her words? Since Consort Xuan didn’t stay in the garden, it was clear that someone deliberately framed her as the palace maid beside the Sixth Princess said that Consort Xuan passed a message to them and Consort Xuan pulled the two maidservants out of the Osmanthus Garden.

The two maidservants and the palace maid next to the Sixth Princess may have been bribed a long time ago. The purpose was to frame Consort Xuan. As for the matter about the Sixth Princess, everyone originally thought it was a misunderstanding. It happened extremely naturally. The Sixth Princess entered the garden by mistake and wetted her clothes, while You Yuecheng took a rest after drinking. There was nothing wrong with it. It was very accidental and completely coincidental.

But now they all knew that Mo Xuetong was framed. Everyone in the room had complicated thoughts. Why did someone frame the noble Consort Xuan? What was the purpose? One could find something weird after weighing it. Everyone had never suspected the Sixth Princess before, but now Mo Yu’s words reminded them of the marriage. Their eyes looking at Sixth Princess were a little more profound.

“When I went to see Marquise, Eighth sister-in-law was there for a long while. Sixth sister, did your maidservant… lie to you?” The Seventh Princess raised her eyes and looked at the palace maid in front of the Sixth Princess. Although she said slowly, the meaning was very clear.

“Seventh sister, how, how could she harm me?” The Sixth Princess did not think there would be such a turn, and she regretted it. She shouldn’t have involved Mo Xuetong. It was originally a very perfect plan, but now it fell apart because of this. Now even her confidant was trapped in it. So the Sixth Princess raised her head to defend the palace maid, instead of crying.

“Is this palace maid Sixth Princess’s confidant? Then that’s really strange. Why is she telling nonsense to make me look unrighteous?” Mo Xuetong smiled blankly, as if what the Sixth Princess said was extremely funny. Her watery eyes rolled, looking exceedingly fascinating and charming. “Could it be that she framed me with the maidservants of Mingguo Manor because she didn’t like me?”

Even the Seventh Princess laughed out loud. A palace maid took great efforts to frame Consort Xuan with the maidservants of Mingguo Manor because she didn’t like her. This was really a joke. A palace maid disliked the dignified Consort Xuan? Moreover, this kind of thing had nothing to do with a palace maid.

Mingguo Manor and the Sixth Princess were involved in this matter. No one would believe that there was no relevant person meddling in it.

The Sixth Princess opened her mouth and was speechless for a while.

“You bitch, tell us, who asked you to frame Consort Xuan?” Ling Mingyan was more of a physical being and asked viciously through gritted teeth.

“I, I…” The two maidservants shivered in fright, and couldn’t even complete the sentence.

“Somebody, drag the families of these two lowly servants and beat them to death in front of them,” Ling Mingyan ordered angrily. She wanted to kill!

You Yuecheng frowned. Although he was dissatisfied with Ling Mingyan’s behavior, he didn’t say a word. He understood Ling Mingyan. At this time, no matter who spoke or explained, it would draw fire against himself. So when he saw the Sixth Princess’s beautiful and imploring eyes, he just turned around indifferently.

Originally, he didn’t plan to help the Sixth Princess. Now that she wanted to marry into Mingguo Manor, it would depend on her own ability.

“Mingyan, isn’t this good? It’s a matter of life and death. You have to ask carefully.” There were people who still couldn’t see the situation clearly. Duchess Mingguo stopped her with embarrassment.

“A matter of life and death? You’re right, mother. If Sixth Princess really ruined her fame here today, she would have to apologize with death. Can’t the two lowly servants pay with their lives for the life of a royal princess? Even if all their family members pay with their lives, it is not enough.”

Ling Mingyan stared at Duchess Mingguo coldly, and insisted. She knew what was going on with the palace maid next to the Sixth Princess. She did not expect that a noble princess fell in love with another woman’s husband. How could Ling Mingyan not be so angry that she almost lost her mind?

If no one ordered the two maidservants in Mingguo Manor, how dare they do such a thing? In addition to Duchess Mingguo, Ling Mingyan really could not think of another person to be able to mobilize people so perfectly. She was clear about it at this time, and she was even blunt when she spoke.

“If Sixth Princess really ruined her fame here today, she would have to apologize with death.” This word made the Sixth Princess speechless. She tightly pinched the handkerchief in her hand.

“Mingyan, this…” Duchess Mingguo still didn’t give up, trying to persuade her, but was interrupted mercilessly by Ling Mingyan. “What do you mean to protect these two lowly servants? Is this related to you? Or did you send them over?”

What she said was extremely cool and her attitude was cold. Duchess Ding, who was standing next to Duchess Mingguo, also snorted, ” Duchess Mingguo, could it be that you think that Mingyan is not good enough to be the mistress of a manor, and thus you deliberately chose a better one. It turns out that Mingguo Manor so dislikes Ding General Manor. That is fine, Mingyan, just go into the palace with me to meet Empress Dowager and Empress, just say that our Ding General Manor’s daughters are more and more unattractive.”

The palace of the Empress Dowager, and the Empress were all from Ding General Manor on the surface no matter how they disputed in the dark. They had always been the most distinguished. As she was forced by Duchess Ding, Duchess Mingguo’s cheeks were blanched and livid. She quickly denied. “Duchess Ding, I didn’t do this. How could this matter relate to me?”

If this really related to her, Duke Mingguo wouldn’t tolerate her, not to mention King Xuan and the Emperor. So how could she dare to admit it?

“Since it has nothing to do with you, please stay neutral. Now that something like this happened, we have to find the person behind the scenes, who deliberately framed Consort Xuan and brought Sixth Princess here. What if to beat these lowly servants to death?” A light flashed across Duchess Ding’s eyes and her fingers pointed from the two maidservants to the palace maids beside the Sixth Princess.

“Somebody…” Seeing that no one raised any objections, Ling Mingyan waved his hand. Then two old maidservant who did rough work went out to tie the two maidservants’ family members.

“Young Madam, Young Madam, it’s not us who wanted to frame Consort Xuan. Someone, someone instructed us to do so. Mercy, Young Madam!” The short maidservant had listened to the tall one. Now when she heard that Ling Mingyan was really angry and wanted to kill her family, she rushed up, hugged Ling Mingyan’s legs, and begged loudly!
