"So it's Sister Wanqing! Sorry for the disrespect! "
Han Yuxi bowed solemnly to Xia Wanqing and said, "Sister Wanqing, I've heard about your husband from my Lord Jue. I'll tell you in detail later. Now, please tell me, did Aunt Jiang call you here?"
When Jiang Cuihua heard this, she panicked and said, "Madam Jue, you …"
"Did I ask you a question? I'm asking Sister Wanqing. If you don't have a guilty conscience, please shut up! "
Han Yuxi mercilessly interrupted her immediately. Anyone could hear the coldness in her words.
Seeing that Han Yuxi was about to get angry, Xia Wanqing also panicked a little. After all, the difference in status was obvious. She hurriedly said in a low voice, "Madam, this … Wanqing came here today without consideration, but it was definitely not to ruin Lord Jue's reputation. I just wanted to …"
"Alright, Sister Wanqing, I know you don't have any ill intentions. I just want to ask you, were you urged by Aunt Jiang to come here?"
Han Yuxi smiled and patted Xia Wanqing's shoulder as she said gently.
"This …"
Xia Wanqing looked at Jiang Cuihua hesitantly, not knowing how to answer.
Han Yuxi immediately understood in her heart. She said in a deep voice, "Sister Wanqing, you all know my and my husband's attitude towards you. Put yourself in my shoes, you have to treat me with sincerity as well! Besides, if anything goes wrong today, both you and our Li family will only suffer losses. No one will be able to gain any benefits, so have you never thought that you were being used by someone with ulterior motives? "
Xia Wanqing was startled. When she thought of the whole thing, she felt more and more that someone was manipulating today's farce.
"Little girl, don't slander me. I just pity these women who lost their husbands. I'm here to seek justice for them!"
Seeing that the matter was about to be exposed, Jiang Cuihua simply shed all pretense of cordiality and directly called Han Yuxi a little girl.
"Hehe! Justice? "
Han Yuxi laughed instead of getting angry and said, "Let's not talk about justice first. Jiang Cuihua, are you admitting that these widows of the imperial guards were all urged by you?"
"… So what if I am ~? Justice for one person is the same as justice for fifty people. What's wrong with me calling all of them over? "
Jiang Cuihua stiffened her neck and argued.
"Haha! Does this mean that you, Jiang Cuihua, are here today to seek justice for the 50 widows of the soldiers? And you're not even taking a single cent? "
Han Yuxi sneered. Then, she looked at the crowd that was gathering around her and said loudly, "Dear neighbors, I, Han Yuxi, have just married into the Li family for less than a month. I don't know what kind of character Jiang Cuihua had in the past, but I believe everyone present knows very well. Who thinks that she will be selfless, do her best, and seek justice for others without taking a single cent? If anyone thinks so, please step forward! "
Straight to the root of the problem!
Han Yuxi's words directly hit Jiang Cuihua's vital point. The onlookers also saw that today's matter was a little unusual, and they all whispered below.
"I know this Jiang Cuihua! Not only is she stingy, but she also likes to take advantage of small things. I heard that the eggs laid by the hens of Blacksmith Wang next to her house are often stolen. I don't know if it has anything to do with Jiang Cuihua! "
"It's most likely related! Earlier, when I saw you guys making a fuss, I felt that something was wrong. Now that I heard Madam Jue's analysis, I finally know what's wrong! This Jiang Cuihua is eating and drinking well, but her mother-in-law can only eat and drink. How can such an unfilial woman be so kind to seek justice for others ~? There must be something fishy behind this ~! "
"Yes, yes, yes. I also heard that Jiang Cuihua doesn't give her mother-in-law food ~!"
"Hiss! Do you guys think that there's someone behind Jiang Cuihua ~! "
"Hmph! It must be ~! Lord Li treats people so well and even gave so many good things to poor people like us. There must be someone who can't stand it and deliberately used this despicable method to smear Lord Jue ~! "
"Yes, yes, yes! These women who came to cause trouble are all accomplices ~! "
"Yes! Accomplices ~! Accomplices who can't distinguish between right and wrong ~! "
..
Chang 'an City wasn't big, but it wasn't small either. The people who lacked entertainment loved to gossip. When something happened, half of Chang' an City would know about it. Therefore, after a while, Jiang Cuihua's background was turned upside down ~!
As the people discussed, Jiang Cuihua's old face became darker and darker. The martyr's widow kneeling on the ground didn't look good either. Although the mastermind of the whole thing was Jiang Cuihua, if they really wanted to talk about it, they were Jiang Cuihua's accomplices ~!
"Madam, we were all persuaded by Aunt Jiang ~! We didn't plan to come at first ~! "
"Yes, yes ~! We were just at home yesterday to prepare for our husband's funeral. Then, Aunt Jiang came over and told us that this time on Snake Spirit Mountain, it was Lord Li's mistake in command that caused our husband to die. She wanted us to come to the Li residence today to seek justice ~! "
"Yes ~! Madam Jue, we were all invited by Aunt Jiang ~! "
A martyr's widow stood up and told the truth. Then, many people followed suit and the truth gradually surfaced.
Han Yuxi sneered and said, "Jiang Cuihua, what else do you have to say ~?"
Jiang Cuihua knew that this was bad. She looked around and saw that there were people everywhere. She couldn't run even if she wanted to. It was funny that she couldn't wait for more people to come. Now, it seemed that she was digging her own grave!
"No matter what, these people's husbands died on Snake Spirit Mountain. It must have something to do with Li Xiannan. Also, why couldn't the soldiers' bones be brought back ~? Isn't Li Xiannan responsible for this ~? "
Jiang Cuihua had no choice but to fight to the death. She felt that even if she was caught and brought to the Supreme Court, she had to drag Li Zexuan down. That way, the mysterious person who was looking for her might be able to save her!
"Hmph ~! You self-righteous stupid woman ~! "
Facing Jiang Cuihua's "dying counterattack", Han Yuxi was not afraid at all. She looked at Xia Wanqing below and said, "The battle on Snake Spirit Mountain was a nightmare for all the sisters here. Originally, I didn't want to reopen this scar, but if I don't make things clear today, I'm afraid that everyone's misunderstanding of the Li family will become deeper and deeper. In order to prevent everyone's pain of losing their husbands from being used by despicable people, Yuxi has offended you today. Next, I will tell everyone in detail what happened to the imperial army on Snake Spirit Mountain the day before yesterday ~! "
