Chapter 227: The Heroine Whose Luck Was Taken Away
But today's incident was really too much. She dragged herself to the small pond without any reason, and then began to question herself why she bullied Ye Ruxing.
Only then did she recognize that this was Wang Xiuzhen, the daughter of Ye Ruoxing's former best friend and Left General Wang Qian.
"Miss Wang, I told you, I don't know what you're talking about. I never intended to hurt my sister. This is all just your imagination."
Ye Furong said a little impatiently.
Wang Xiuzhen's eyes were red. She reached out and grabbed Ye Furong, who was about to leave, and said angrily, "If it's not you, then who is it? Ruoxing usually loves gatherings like this, and now she won't even come. Also, where did you hide her during the years she disappeared?"
Ye Furong was already very impatient with being dragged by her. Seeing that there was no one around, she was about to force her way away, but suddenly she caught a glimpse of a bright yellow figure.
The emperor actually came this way. It was a good opportunity, and she immediately came up with a plan.
So, she took advantage of Wang Xiuzhen's strength and threw herself into the pond, and then was thrown into it.
……
Wang Xiuzhen was a little dazed. She didn't use any force, and she didn't even understand why Ye Furong was suddenly thrown into the pond.
So, without thinking, she jumped into the pond to save Ye Furong.
The little maidservant, who was originally some distance away from the two men, ran anxiously to the edge of the pond and watched the two masters struggling in the water.
This pond is not very deep, but it is used to grow lotus flowers. The bottom of the river is full of silt, and your feet will get entangled in the silt if you are not careful.
Wang Xiuzhen took great effort to drag Madam Ye to the shore. At that time, many people were already standing on the shore, including the emperor who happened to pass by.
After the two got ashore, Wang Xiuzhen was exhausted and out of breath. Fortunately, she had practiced martial arts since she was a child. If it were another girl, it would probably be impossible to drag her up.
The maidservants accompanying the two of them hurried to their side and asked about their masters' condition worriedly. Wang Xiuzhen waved her hand and said that everything was fine.
On the other hand, Ye Furong seemed to be shivering from the cold. She looked at Wang Xiuzhen opposite her in fear and hugged herself tightly, seeming to be cold and frightened.
"Go and call the imperial physician over quickly. Help the two girls into the house, change them into clean clothes, and then prepare some ginger and sugar water for them. Don't let them get sick."
At the Queen's command, the maidservant beside her immediately stepped forward, helped Ye Furong and Wang Xiuzhen up, and walked into the house.
At this time, the old concubine who had been watching all this from behind the rockery also followed with a sullen face.
Following behind the old concubine was Cui Xi, who looked embarrassed.
Seeing Wang Xiuzhen fall into the water, looking at her pitiful appearance like a drowned chicken, Mrs. Wang rushed over with distress, carefully checked Wang Xiuzhen's body, and then hugged Wang Xiuzhen, "Bao'er, how are you? You were fine, how could you fall into the water?"
Wang Xiuzhen sighed helplessly at her mother's exaggerated reaction. She comforted Madam Wang and said, "I'm fine, mother."
Then, Ye Furong, who was standing beside her, suddenly burst into tears. She looked at Wang Xiuzhen with a sense of grievance and asked in a tearful voice, "Ms. Wang, I have no grudge against you. Why did you want to harm me? Why did you push me into the water?"
She looked so pitiful, it was really heartbreaking, as if she had really suffered a great injustice.
The maidservant beside her comforted Ye Furong while saying, "That's right, you dragged our young lady over there for no reason and pushed her into the water. I wonder how our young lady offended you."
Wang Xiuzhen felt the fire in her heart suddenly rise up. Before she could stand up, Mrs. Wang slapped the little maid in the face.
"Pa!" After a slap, Mrs. Wang cursed angrily, "Who the hell are you? How dare you speak to our Bao'er like that?"
As she spoke, she glanced at Ye Furong and sneered, "Could it be that he is just relying on the power of others?"
Although Mrs. Wang was only the wife of General Zuo, her father was a member of the royal family of the northern barbarians. She came with the marriage team at that time, so she could not be offended easily.
Everyone in the room and on the road was stunned by this slap. They didn't expect Mrs. Wang to slap them suddenly. The scene was very embarrassing.
Only Madam Wang stood there. She put her hands on her hips angrily, pointed at the two people opposite her, and started to curse: "What are you two putting on in front of me? I've seen you act like this many times. You're just pretending to be pitiful to gain sympathy. What? Is there anyone in this room that you like? Why are you acting so coquettishly? I know my daughter well. She was born to me, and I know what kind of person she is. She likes to be straightforward and open-minded. She wouldn't do something like pointing at me."
……
Mrs. Wang, your reputation is truly well-deserved.
Wang Xiuzhen held her forehead with her hand. She knew that her mother had always been fierce and treated her like a treasure. She would not tolerate anyone slandering her in the slightest.
The people around also reacted, especially the emperor. He didn't look very happy, but considering Mrs. Wang's special status, he had to suppress his anger and winked at General Zuo.
General Zuo wiped the sweat from his forehead, quickly stepped forward to pull his wife away, and explained with a smile, "My wife drank too much today. Please forgive me, I will take her downstairs to rest first."
After that, he covered Madam Wang's mouth and dragged her out while comforting her, "Madam, Madam, let's go out first, let's go out first."
After Madam Wang was helped out, Ye Furong finally spoke with bloodshot eyes and aggrieved voice, "Although Furong's family background is not high, thanks to the love of my father and mother, I also have self-respect. Why should I be treated badly like this?"
As she spoke, she bit her lip, her eyes bloodshot. She asked, "Miss Wang, I want to ask you, why do you have to make things difficult for me?"
The emperor also frowned. He looked at Wang Xiuzhen and asked, "Is this really as she said? Did you push her into the water?"
"No, your servant has none."
Wang Xiuzhen spoke with a frank look in her eyes.
Compared to Ye Furong's pitiful appearance, her emotions seemed particularly stable. Although the two were sitting opposite each other, Wang Xiuzhen obviously looked more open and honest.
"Why would I push her into the water and then risk my life to save her? If anything were to happen to her, wouldn't I be shooting myself in the foot?"
In this way, both sides had their reasons and the situation was at a stalemate for a while.
However, most people still prefer Ye Furong. After all, it is indeed more heartbreaking to see a beautiful woman crying.
The emperor was also undecided, and at this moment, an old voice came from the door.
Good night
