Medical Princess - Chapter 310
Chapter 310 Never Accept Being Defined as A “Weak Lady”
Wang Shengxue instinctively shifted the blame onto Qi Rongzhi.
“Childe Wang, you are weird. You seemingly meant that we have been in contact with each other before, and said that I sent someone to give you the handkerchief and I’ve done that more once. Now you say that this handkerchief may belong to the First Miss Qi. Could it be possible that you don’t know who has been in contact with you and just make up a story with a handkerchief coming out from nowhere? ”
Qin Wanru sneered, looking at Wang Shengxue with cold eyes. Her sharp eyes seemed to penetrate Wang Shengxue’s mind, making him increasingly diffident.
It changed so quickly that he talked incoherently.
“I, I, I thought it was Second Miss Qin…”
“You thought it was me, so you jumped out to stop me and sent a maid to ask me to go out. Even when I said that the handkerchief doesn’t belong to me, you still slandered me and suggested that we’ve known each other for long. Childe Wang, can you just tell everyone whether we’ve known each other for long, when did we know each other and where I was at that time?”
Qin Wanru said in a gentle voice, but sounded oppressive and stood up straight.
It hadn’t been a long time since she moved to the capital, and she knew very few people and had gone out only a few times. She was really not afraid to confront Wang Shengxue.
“I, I…” With sweat on his forehead and his eyes drifting, Wang Shengxue didn’t know how to explain it. At the thought that the overall situation had settled, he had said not a few words suggesting the ambiguous relationship between him and Qin Wanru. However, he couldn’t offer any specific evidence of where they met.
It was impossible for an unmarried Miss like Qin Wanru to go out with no purpose. He might not be able to tell a day on which Qin Wanru happened to go out, let alone the location. It was impossible for him to make up a story!
“Childe Wang, there has never been any hatred between you and your sister and me. Madam of Duke Xing is the only person we all know. Why do you frame me up again and again? Your sister has framed me up in the palace, and now you do it again here. Could there be any hatred between our Ningyuan Army General’s Mansion and your Wang’s Mansion? ”
With a trace of deepness across her eyes, Qin Wanru stared at Wang Shengxue and said.
“Could it be true?”
“Ningyuan Army General’s Mansion has just moved to the capital and offended the Wang’s Mansion? It couldn’t be true, right?”
“Both Wang Shengxue and his sister Wang Yishu framed up the Miss from the Qin’s Mansion. Could they be crazy?”
“They don’t seem like crazy. But could it be related to Madam of Duke Xing? There is no relationship between Wang Shengxue and his sister and the Second Miss Qin, so the only connection between them is Madam of Duke Xing?”
“Madam of Duke Xing doesn’t like this Second Miss Qin?”
As there came various voices of speculation, everyone seemed to be enlightened suddenly and began to discuss in low voices.
The rustling voice penetrated into Wang Shengxue’s ears like fine threads, making Wang Shengxue look even more flustered. He didn’t know what to do now, because the current situation was completely different from his imagination.
“Excuse me, excuse me, Madam of Duke Xing has come!” Someone shouted outside the crowd. Everyone looked around, only to see Madam of Duke Xing coming over in anger with a group of maids and old maids.
She came up to Wang Shengxue, reached out to slap Wang Shengxue forcefully and said, “You are such a fool. I’ve told you that your sister suffered from her own actions. She has been stirred up by someone and framed up the Second Miss Qin. Now you do it again. Do you and your sister intend to make me and your uncle crazy!”
Madam of Duke Xing seemed to come here in a hurry after getting the news. There was a little sweat on her elegant and decent face. She stared at Wang Shengxue with disappointment, sadness and pain in her eyes and even shivered slightly in anger, seeming to be extremely disappointed with her beloved junior.
She fully expressed the state of being exasperated at her nephew’s misdeed!
“Aunt, now my sister is, is almost lying at death’s door. I, I can’t bear it!” Awakened by the slap, Wang Shengxue knelt down and burst into tears. “My sister, who was originally fine, was thrown out like that after entering the palace. She is my only sister!”
As a man, he cried so sadly, arousing the sympathy of some people around him. Although Wang Yishu had done something wrong, she was Wang Shengxue’s sister after all.
Many people involuntarily imagined the cause of what happened today. It should be that Wang Shengxue knew that the Second Miss Qin came here today and deliberately made up a story to frame her up in order to avenge his sister.
“Childe Wang, where did you get the handkerchief?” Qin Wanru didn’t intend to let go of Wang Shengxue, and asked coldly.
“Say it, where did you get this handkerchief? Could it be that you secretly took the handkerchief from Rongzhi?” Madam of Duke Xing also asked indignantly, with anger in her eyes.
No one would like to see this kind of thing happened on the day of great joy. What was more, Wang Shengxue had obviously done something terrible.
“Aunt, aunt, it’s all my fault. Please spare me for the sake of my unconscious sister!” Wang Shengxue kowtowed heavily to Madam of Duke Xing and said with tears.
“You, you… What should I say? How, how can you do this? Have you read the books of sages in vain? Your sister has only herself to blame for her tragedy. You shouldn’t blame the Second Miss Qin. You… ” Madam of Duke Xing was so angry that her face turned pale, and couldn’t finish her words.
After taking a breath, she turned to say to Qin Wanru resolutely, “Second Miss Qin, our mansion should take the blame, since Shengxue is the nephew of our mansion. It’s up to you. You can deal with him as you want. I just want you to spare his life, because he has an unconscious sister to take care of!”
The remarks made by Madam of Duke Xing were quite decent. Seeing her look pale in anger, many Madams involuntarily consoled her.
Although Wang Shengxue was the nephew of Duke Xing’s Mansion, Madam of Duke Xing shouldn’t be blamed for his misdeed. Thinking of his unconscious sister and looking at his tearful face, many people felt sorry for him.
Although Wang Shengxue had done something terrible, he could be considered excusable, right?
Qin Wanru sneered. Madam of Duke Xing was indeed a crafty old scoundrel. She immediately cleared up the suspicion on her and made others consider her decent and polite with just a few words.
The parlor she had left before was not too far away from here. Even a guest like Qin Yuru arrived here early. However, as the master, Madam of Duke Xing had just come here in a hurry after getting the news. In fact, it was the most inexplicable thing.
Now she asked Qin Wanru to deal with Wang Shengxue. She thought as a weak girl, Qin Wanru would certainly show her magnanimity in this case and reduce the trouble into a minor one!
As the victim, Qin Wanru didn’t say anything. In this way, even if there were some other people on her side, they wouldn’t say anything!
Madam of Duke Xing was tricky, but she missed Qin Wanru’s dislike of being a “weak lady”. In the last life, she was such a “weak lady” who could only leave her life to the destiny. She would never accept being defined as a “weak lady” in this life.
A lady, who was too weak, would be bullied. She didn’t want to be such a “weak lady”.
“Madam of Duke Xing, I’ve no idea of dealing with this matter. Since childe Wang intended to frame me up for Miss Wang, let’s send him to the government office. I can also ask them to find out what happened in the palace, why Miss Wang framed me up and who intensified the trouble behind it. I’ve never believed that Miss Wang is the plotter, because we’ve never met each other before!”
Qin Wanru thought for a while and said meaningfully.
With a hint of anger in her eyes, Madam of Duke Xing had never expected that Qin Wanru would blow her face off and suggest that they should send Wang Shengxue to the government office. If the matter was related to what had happened in the palace, Wang Shengxue would definitely be severely punished as soon as he was sent to the government office. Although Madam of Duke Xing had formidable connections, it would be inconvenient for her to save Wang Shengxue at this time, and she didn’t dare to save him.
Pulling herself together, she held back the anger at the bottom of her eyes, but her face darkened. Obviously she did not agree with Qin Wanru’s suggestion!
“That’s not a good idea, right? We’d better deal with this kind of thing in private. After all, a lady’s reputation is very important!” A Madam next to Madam of Duke Xing coughed in a low voice and advised.
“That’s right. Despite his misdeed, Wang Shengxue is the nephew of Duke Xing’s Mansion anyway. If the news gets out, the entire Duke Xing’s Mansion will lose face. Second Miss Qin, you’d better not involve Duke Xing’s Mansion in it. After all, it’s not directly related to Duke Xing’s Mansion! ”
“Yeah! That’s not a good idea to make the trouble significant!”
“Second Miss Qin’s reputation is important, so is the reputation of Duke Xing’s Mansion. Neither Duke Xing’s Mansion nor Second Miss Qin should be blamed for this!
Someone stood out to mediate, naturally followed by a large group of people. Many people were too humble to flatter Madam of Duke Xing in the past. At this moment, they saw the opportunity. Madam of Duke Xing was obviously unhappy, so they naturally found the opportunity to flatter her.
Madam of Duke Xing didn’t speak with only a hint of sarcasm across her eyes. She didn’t think that Qin Wanru dared to blow so many Madams’ faces off.
Although Wang Shengxue failed in framing up Qin Wanru, so what? She could stay out of this matter as she did in Wang Yishu’s misdeed. With her gaze falling on Wang Shengxue, she was angry and thought that both of Wang Shengxue and his sister were useless. Wang Shengxue had promised her that he would definitely succeed in framing up Qin Wanru and said that it was easy to deal with an unmarried lady. As long as he could go all out, he could do anything he wanted.
However, he screwed it up and she had to clean up the mess for him. At the thought of it, Madam of Duke Xing couldn’t restrain the anger in her eyes.
Seeing her anger, others considered that she was exasperated at her nephew’s misdeed. Thus, more and more people pleaded for Wang Shengxue!
Qin Wanru raised her eyes to look lightly at the Madams and Young Madams, who were flattering Madam of Duke Xing, and said with a faint smile, “Since it’s inconvenient to send childe Wang to the government office, let’s report it to the government office and remove his official rank! If I was framed up by him, suicide would probably be my only choice!”
