”Then why did the crown prince and sixth brother say that you could prove that Shui Qiannan sent assassins to hide at the bottom of the lake?” The emperor questioned sternly.
”Those people claimed that they were ordered by sister to kill my daughter, and said that she would push her into the water and let them get rid of her in the water. However, I don't want to believe that my sister would be so cruel to my daughter, because my daughter thinks that it was just a misunderstanding.” Shui Qianyu choked on her words, almost crying as she looked at the emperor.
”Yu'er, you're still speaking up for her at this time? Why are you so stupid?” Hou Ziming looked at Shui Qianyu lovingly and said.
He then sighed and looked at the emperor, ”Father, Yu'er has a kind heart, but she doesn't want to kill Shui Qiannan. Please investigate.”
”That's right, royal father. You know what Shui Qiannan's character is, she beat me and Seventh Brother in the Family Competition that day.” It's clear that she wants to take care of whoever is unhappy. ” Hou Zhiwen did not forget to add fuel to the fire.
”That's not right, Imperial Father. That day, Sai'er of the family was present as well. Someone provoked Miss Shui first, and Miss Shui was so angry that she wanted to take care of them, thus mistakenly injuring Sixth and Seventh Brother.” Hou Qingyu interjected in a neutral tone.
”Then is she arrogant?” Hou Zhi asked.
”I feel that Miss Shui's actions are advisable, a person of character.” As Hou Qingyu spoke, he glanced at Shui Qiannan appreciatively. He was so angry that Hou Zhiwen could not say a word.
Seeing this, Hou Ziming's expression gradually turned cold. Hou Qingyu was obviously going against him!
”You want Second Miss Zuo to testify with you?” Shui Qiannan's eyes were as calm as the surface of a lake as he coldly asked.
”Of course.” Shui Qianyu said.
”Then please bear witness for me, your majesty. In two days, I will personally make Zuo Yiyun say who pushed her.” Shui Qiannan said to the emperor in a clear voice.
The Emperor hesitated for a moment before nodding slightly. Shui Qiannan then turned to Shui Qianyu and asked with a smile, ”What about you? Do you dare to confront me in two days?”
From the corner of her eyes, Shui Qianyu looked towards Hou Ziming, who bowed his head in acknowledgment. He knew that Zuo Yi Yun had disappeared for no reason, even Shui Qienan probably didn't know. He thought he could cure Zuo Yi Yun.
However, Shui Qiannan was quite capable, he almost let her save Zuo Yi Yun. Luckily, he had kept his trump card.
When Shui Qianyu saw Hou Ziming nod at her, her initially nervous mood immediately lightened by quite a bit. She gently smiled and said, ”Since big sister wants to confront me that much, little sister will be waiting for you in two days.”
Shui Qiannan shook his head. He didn't think that she was unaware of the little things that were happening between Shui Qianyu and Hou Ziming. Hou Ziming only dared to ask Shui Qianyu to come under his orders because he knew Zuo Yiyun wasn't in the Zuo family. What a pity, Zuo Yiyun was currently in Lin Xuanyi's mansion.
Mhmm, she was looking forward to seeing Zuo Yiyun's expression when Shui Qianyu and Hou Ziming meet up two days later.
Seeing that they couldn't get anything out of him today, the Emperor waved his hand to disperse them.
Shui Qiannan quickly walked out of the manor. Shui Qianyu assumed that Shui Qiannan was going to the Zuo Residence to find Zuo Yi Yun. After she walked out from the entrance of the hall, she whispered to Hou Ziming, ”Zi Ming, will she really heal Zuo Yi Yun?”
