Zhang Xuan's eyes flashed with an almost imperceptible sense of pride, she then turned around and said, "Someone come, why haven't you thrown out this madman who dared to humiliate Miss Second State Councilor Manor? You want him to bully my sister again? "
As she spoke, Zhang Xuan emphasized the words' innocence ',' Second State Councilor ', and' you ', as if she was afraid that no one else would know about it.
The moment he said that, a few servants hurriedly walked in from outside. They didn't even look at the crowd as they prepared to get close to Old Master Jin.
Seeing this, Shangguan Lianniang's gaze turned cold as she shouted, "Stop! Whoever moves, I will kill! "
As she spoke, Shangguan Lianniang didn't even look at Zhang Xuan. She directly walked to Old Master Jin's side, the corner of her mouth curved into a smile as she said, "I want this person's life!"
Once she said that, the room fell silent for a moment. Everyone was shocked by Shangguan Lianniang's sudden change, but it only lasted for a moment. Then came the sound of everyone's discussion. This sentence had a very deep meaning to it!
"Lianniang, don't do something stupid!"
Shangguan Zhenyu's eyes were filled with worry. He did not even look at Zhang Xuan, his tone sounded a little tired.
Sensing Shangguan Zhenyu's change, Shangguan Lianniang's heart softened. Her expression softened a little, but her tone remained as forceful as ever. "Dad, don't worry. I won't do anything rash. However, this man is the key witness in today's matter. If he were to be casually taken away, I'm afraid that I will never be able to return my innocence.
Zhang Xuan was stunned for a moment before reacting to Shangguan Lianniang's intention to push the blame onto her. She wanted to curse out loud, but when she thought of the image she had to maintain, she endured it and her acting skills came online once again.
She wanted to hold Shangguan Lianniang's hand like a sister, but when she thought of what had happened, Zhang Xuan's hand awkwardly fell back down. As if she didn't care about the fact that Shangguan Lianniang and Shangguan Zhenyu almost killed her, Zhang Xuan's words were full of advice.
"Lianniang, I know that once a woman loses her body to someone, she will marry that man. Perhaps, you really do like this person. But look, how could this fat, pig-like, stupid man be worthy of your love! For such a person to still have something for himself, wouldn't that hinder your eyesight? "
"What's more, Duke Xian already said that he would marry you as his concubine. Even if you wanted to bet with me, you wouldn't go so far as to do such a thing and resist!" Once a woman loses her virginity, if she doesn't marry that person, she will only be able to soak in a pig cage! "
Zhang Xuan's last sentence was extremely resounding. The crowd, who had been tempted by Shangguan Lianniang's words earlier, now returned to Zhang Xuan's camp. Many people immediately echoed her words, with the Minister of Rites, Lau Zhiyi, standing at the very top.
No matter how much Shangguan Lianniang said, she could not stop others from deliberately slandering her.
It didn't matter if there was a secret behind this incident or the truth. In the end, so many people had already seen it.
Perhaps in the next moment, this matter would become known to the entire capital. At that time, Shangguan Lianniang would only have three paths: one to marry Old Master Jin, the other to enter the monastery, and the third … Then he would sink into a deep pond!
Regardless of which path she chose, she, Shangguan Lianniang, would never be able to turn the tables in her life!
Zhang Xuan's heart was filled with excitement as she thought of this. However, there was a fake expression of worry on her face.
At this point, Shangguan Lianniang's patience had run out. She had wanted to see what other tricks Zhang Xuan could pull, but she could only say a few words, which was really annoying.
As she approached Zhang Xuan, Shangguan Lianniang's hand suddenly grabbed onto Zhang Xuan's neck. From the onlookers' perspective, Shangguan Lianniang and Zhang Xuan were very close, but only Zhang Xuan knew how powerful the hand on her neck was, which caused her to be unable to even breathe steadily.
Laughing softly, Shangguan Lianniang's laughter became even more obvious in this room, "Elder sister has been interacting with people from various sects for a long time and is very adept at these things. I think she must have heard some news. "Since elder sister cares about me so much, I will have to trouble elder sister to find out who harmed me!"
In a split-second, Zhang Xuan's complacent expression disappeared.
Since Zhang Xuan insisted on her losing her virginity, she also insisted on the fact that she was in contact with people who were not in the right and wrong!
The moment she interacted with those people, it would mean that her reputation was going to be ruined!
Everyone subconsciously felt fear towards her.
Shangguan Lianniang chuckled once again after she finished speaking. The warm air hit Zhang Xuan's ears, causing a chill to run through Zhang Xuan's heart.
He let go of Zhang Xuan's neck with a smile. There was a circle of bruises on her neck, but at this moment, Zhang Xuan could not say any words of grievance.
Shangguan Lianniang looked at everyone in the room, but there was no warmth in her eyes.
"This is the end of today's matter. I do not care what you all think in your hearts. If I say this is the end, it is the end. If I hear someone bring it up again in the future, don't blame me for being rude! "
He had pretended to be wronged, but it was necessary to be strong. As a leader, he paid attention to favors. Acting all the time was not going to achieve the effect he wanted.
"Shangguan Lianniang, don't go too far. Such a big matter must be decided by the Emperor. How can you overlook it so easily with just a single sentence?"
Lau Zhiyi stepped forward with a serious face and looked at Shangguan Lianniang's confident words.
Seeing this, Shangguan Lianniang did not mind at all. She was just a civil servant. If she wanted to kill him, it would be as easy as flipping her hand!
However, seeing that killing him now would implicate Shangguan Zhenyu, her father who came here for nothing, she decided to endure it for the time being.
Ignoring Lau Zhiyi's words, Shangguan Lianniang glanced at the people in the room. Her gaze was like frost, chilling to the bone.
Shangguan Lianniang dragged her tone. The coldness and killing intent in her eyes made everyone shudder. It was the first time Shangguan Zhenyu had seen Shangguan Lianniang like this.
However, compared to other people's fear and fear, Shangguan Zhenyu felt more heartache for Shangguan Lianniang.
No one was born with a cold heart. For such a huge change to occur, it could only mean that the person had suffered a great grievance.
Towards this, Shangguan Zhenyu also felt that he should say something.
"Lianniang's words are the meaning of my words. The majority of the adults standing here have grudges with me, so there's no need to be courteous." Even though I am a civil official, if I want to die alone, it will just be writing a few more words. I believe that all my lords should know whether or not I have done something shameful! "
"If anyone dares to reveal even half a word of what happened today, it would be going against me, Shangguan Zhenyu!"
When these words were spoken, everyone's faces turned ashen. They looked at Shangguan Zhenyu but were unable to say anything.
Towards Shangguan Zhenyu's maintenance, Shangguan Lianniang's heart was filled with warmth, but she still suppressed it in the bottom of her heart.
