Baili Jinze frowned. His face was pale and his drooped eyes were gloomy. At this moment, he tore off his usual gentle disguise. The gloominess in his eyes made people's hearts tremble. However, he quickly suppressed this emotion. He put on his original gentle mask and said, "Second brother, I was being impolite. I had hardly stood up when I suddenly stumbled and fell down." He said calmly as if what had happened was just a trivial thing.
Baili Jinchuan smiled lightly. "Fifth brother, I thought you liked staying in the water."
"Second brother, you are joking." Baili Jinze gritted his teeth, and the veins on his forehead popped out.
Shen Ninghua coldly watched him struggle, feeling extremely happy in her heart. What he experienced today was nothing compared to her pain when her limbs were broken in the previous life. In order to invent this poison, she had spent a lot of effort. It was a pity that the raw materials were very rare, so she made only a small amount of the poison in total.
Chu Junyi looked at the governor of the Capital Guards beside him. "Lord Sun, why don't you arrange for the Second Prince and Fifth Prince to have a rest? The two of them are shocked today. The common people here also need to be calmed down. I believe the emperor will ask about today's situation in detail tomorrow."
The governor nodded. He needed to be well prepared for the emperor's inquiry tomorrow. "Yes, I've already arranged a place. Your Highnesses, please go and have a rest and freshen up."
Baili Jinchuan nodded indifferently. After seeing Baili Jinze's joke today, he didn't care about the unusual behavior of the governor. Ignorance was bliss. He was happy now.
Chu Junyi's heart trembled slightly. Was this what Shen Ninghua called a big show?
Shen Ninghua slightly curled her lips and waved her hand to Shen Xuanhua. "Xuanhua, I see that the Fifth Prince seems to be a little uncomfortable. Lord Sun has arranged for someone to help him back. Hurry up and find Doctor Zhang to see His Highnesses."
"Alright, I'll call Doctor Zhang immediately." Shen Xuanhua hurriedly followed her order. He was scared by the incident that had occurred. Now, he finally restored his normal sense and immediately understood that Shen Ninghua was purposely sending him away. He wanted to leave, but he was still worried. "Eldest sister, this place is in a mess. I'll find someone to send you back first."
"No need. I have to look for Shen Linghan. I haven't seen her since the incident."
Looking at Shen Ninghua's worried expression, Shen Xuanhua couldn't help but complain in his heart. "How come the second elder sister doesn't know any better and keeps wandering at this time?"
Shen Ninghua was slightly stunned. She didn't expect Shen Xuanhua to be so straightforward. This kid was simple-minded. She also promised Madam Su to protect him. There was no need for him to be involved in this matter. "Probably she gets lost in the crowd. You should go find Doctor Zhang Nian first."
Shen Xuanhua wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Shen Ninghua with her eyes. "Go."
With a blank mind, Shen Xuanhua took two steps, feeling uncomfortable in his heart. He also wanted to help, but the eldest sister actually did not trust him. Biting his lips, Shen Xuanhua made up his mind and quickly walked away. Since the eldest sister asked him to call a doctor, he would do that. At the very least, he didn't want to be a drag on her.
Shen Xuanhua had just taken two steps when he was stopped by Shen Linghan, who suddenly appeared. "Second younger brother, why are you still running around at this time? Quickly protect the Second Prince and Fifth Prince."
"Second elder sister, where did you go?" Shen Xuanhua frowned and said. "Hurry up and stay with eldest sister. I'm going to fetch Doctor Zhang here."
Shen Linghan shouted coldly, "Stop! It's not the time to get a doctor. There's something big going on here! Lord Sun, why don't you arrest the bad guy who attempted to murder the two princes?"
The Governor of the Capital Guards carefully looked at the people around him and couldn't help but bitterly laugh in his heart. What's wrong with this Second Miss Shen? Why was the farce? "Second Young Lady, are you joking? How could anyone try to murder the two princes? That's a crime big enough to implicate the whole family and its relatives." She'd better not involve the First Miss Shen. Otherwise, the entire Shen family would be implicated.
Shen Linghan looked at Shen Ninghua with contempt and said with a confident look, "How can I ignore the safety of the two Highnesses just because I'm afraid of being implicated?"
Shen Ninghua looked at her silently, unclear about what she was trying to do.
"Sister, why did you attempt to murder the two princes?" Shen Linghan asked sternly, her fingers trembling slightly with excitement. Today, she must send Shen Ninghua to h.e.l.l.
Shen Ninghua frowned, "Sister, are you insane? When did I try to murder the two princes?"
"Humph, you are still denying it. Ying Chun, bring up the thing you've found." This time, she had the real evidence, and Shen Ninghua could not get away.
The maid named Ying Chun took up a handkerchief and handed it to Shen Linghan.
"Sister," Shen Linghan opened the handkerchief, "you should know this. After all, you just scattered it!"
Shen Ninghua frowned, "Sister, you should know better. How come you think you can take up whatever you get and blame it on me?"
Shen Linghan stepped forward and grabbed Shen Ninghua's sleeve. "Sister, don't deny it. Your sleeve also has this white powder. You scattered this powder around and caused the surrounding people to fall into the water. I really didn't expect that you would try to kill the Fifth Prince at the cost of so many people's lives. Aren't you afraid of retribution?"
Retribution? If it weren't for the inappropriate occasion, Shen Ninghua would have almost laughed out loud. She really didn't expect that one day Shen Linghan would say the word retribution. Even Shen Linghan hadn't received retribution. So what was there for Shen Ninghua to be afraid of?
Seeing that Shen Ninghua remained silent, Shen Linghan laughed even more proudly. "Sister, do you want our Shen family to be buried with you? You hate Father so much that you want to use this method to destroy us. Your Highnesses, the murder was committed by my elder sister alone. However, she is still a member of the Shen family. Please punish her leniently."
Shen Xuanhua's face blushed with anger, "Second elder sister, are you crazy? How come you are framing up our eldest sister in this way! Your Highnesses, my eldest sister is the most kind-hearted and will definitely not harm any people. My second elder sister must have made a mistake. Eldest sister, say something! "
"She is clearly unable to defend herself. What else does she have to say? Shen Ninghua, why don't you quickly confess?"
Shen Ninghua looked at Shen Linghan's complacent face and suddenly laughed. "Younger Sister, you always think ill of people. Why do things sound so ugly in your mouth? I don't have any grudges with the two princes. Why would I seek death by attempting to kill them? Am I stupid?"
"Humph, who knows if you have any ill intentions?"
"No, you have ill intentions in your heart. That's why you think so ill of others!" Shen Ninghua said disdainfully.
"You," Shen Linghan's face blushed and she snorted coldly. "I don't care how adept you are in quibbling. You know what you've done. I've already sent someone to fetch a doctor. Soon, you'll have nothing to say." She had sent her people to follow Shen Ninghua. She wanted to wait until Shen Ninghua got close to Huanhua Stream and knocked Shen Ninghua into the river to get drowned. In order to prevent Shen Ninghua from getting up from the water, she even ordered people to drug Shen Ninghua with muscle relaxant. But even without carrying out her own plan, she succeeded in finding a handle that could put Shen Ninghua in a death trap.
Shen Ninghua sneered. "It's up to you." Since you asked for this, let's see what a fuss you could make.
While Shen Linghan was proud, Chu Junyi became impatient. "Second Miss Shen, even if you have anything else to say, you should first let the Fifth Prince go and change his clothes. He is wet all over. If he gets a cold, can you take the responsibility?
In normal times, Baili Jinze would have become suspicious, but now he had almost lost his mind due to the pain in his body. He was already having trouble taking care of himself, and was in no mood to care about Shen Linghan. When he heard the quarrel was over, he immediately wanted to leave.
Shen Linghan explained, "Your Highness, please forgive me for being indiscreet, but I did this for you and the Second Prince. Please don't blame me."
"Get out of my way!" Baili Jinze was impatient.
"Your Highness." Shen Linghan stepped forward to explain, but because of the messy floor, she stumbled and fell onto Baili Jinze.
Baili Jinze went black and he almost felt that he would immediately spit out blood. The intense impact caused an illusion that his internal organs had been shattered, and he nearly fainted due to the pain. "Get out!"
Shen Linghan was pushed to the ground. It took her a while to regain consciousness. The Fifth Prince had been courting her not long before, but now he treated her so rudely. It must be the b.i.t.c.h Shen Ninghua's trick!
"Your Highness, how can you let the person who has harmed you walk away unpunished? The pain you are suffering is all caused by Shen Ninghua."
Baili Jinze suppressed the pain on his body. His body was almost drenched in cold sweat. Fortunately, because he had fallen into water, he was able to avoid the awkwardness. "You mean the Eldest Miss Shen?"
Shen Linghan thought that Baili Jinze had listened to her and quickly nodded. "Exactly."
"Shen Linghan, stop framing up people in the future." Shen Ninghua was not foolish enough to openly murder the princes.
Shen Linghan was utterly discomfited. "Why don't you believe me? The Second Prince must be able to tell right from wrong. What I said is true."
Hearing this, Baili Jinchuan, who was enjoying watching the drama, immediately frowned. "If I say that your words are false, then I can't tell right from wrong?"
Shen Linghan didn't expect that no one would believe her words. She almost gritted her teeth into pieces and glared fiercely at Shen Ninghua. "No, I was wrong in saying those words, but I will have a way to prove that what I said is true." She thought, "Shen Ninghua, don't you cry and beg me when the time comes! This time, no matter how sly you are, it's impossible for you to get off the hook. "
Shen Ninghua sneered. Shen Linghan was really spoiled by Madam Zhao and was too arrogant.
"Doctor Chen is here."
Shen Ninghua raised her head in surprise. Chen Yun, the head of the Imperial Health Inst.i.tute had come! She looked at Chu Junyi and found that he was blinking at her. It seemed that he also played a part in this. Before she could repay his favor, he helped her again.
Shen Linghan handed over the handkerchief in her hand. "Doctor Chen, quickly take a look. What is this white powder?"
Chen Yun frowned and took a look. He put it under his nose and sniffed. "This is muscle relaxant."
Shen Linghan became extremely elated. "Shen Ninghua, what else do you have to say for yourself? Lord Sun, arrest Shen Ninghua and send her to prison!"
