My Inner Thought is Exposed! The Villain Family Defy Their Fate! Chapter 184 - 81: Crime of Deceiving the Monarch (Part 2)
This guy should be Jiang Zitang’s fiancé, the Young Master of the Xie Family, Xie Xuanrong.
But the plot clearly ntioned that due to the ddling of Jiang Zitang’s maid, the two of them had many misunderstandings. At this point in ti, they were having a spat, and Xie Xuanrong didn’t attend today’s banquet. So what is happening now?
The plot deviated again, and things were gradually slipping out of her control. Su Qianxue suddenly had a faint sense of foreboding in her heart.
"Xie Family boy, you interrupted . What exactly do you have to say?"
Being interrupted at a critical mont, Lord Sacrificial Officer was sowhat displeased, looking coldly at the handso and aloof man in front of him.
Xie Xuanrong looked at him with no emotion, "Of course, it’s sothing important."
Lord Sacrificial Officer: "..."
He glared, speaking irritably, "Then say it quickly, I’m busy here."
Xie Xuanrong turned his head, his eyes dark and deep as he looked at Su Qianxue, his gaze as if spilled with ink, devoid of any emotion.
"Miss Su, I’ll ask you again, were these two poems really composed by you on the spot today?"
This guy indeed ca with ill intentions, Su Qianxue’s heart skipped a beat.
Before she could reply, he continued coldly, "Let remind you, the Emperor is here listening. You better think carefully before answering, otherwise, the cri of deceiving the Emperor could get your head chopped off."
[Oh, Xie Xuanrong is good, bringing out both the Emperor and the cri of deceiving him.]
[In these ancient tis, deceiving the Emperor is a grave cri. I’m really curious to see how the heroine will choose.]
[Tsk, this plot developnt is getting more and more interesting.]
Su Qianxue: "..."
Hearing this, her heart was completely out of sorts. She didn’t know whether Xie Xuanrong was intentionally bluffing her or if he really had so incredible evidence.
However, with the atmosphere hyped to this extent, admitting that the two poems weren’t hers but stolen, at this juncture, would ruin her reputation.
It would be more painful than killing her.
"Of course, didn’t I already say that earlier? Why does Mr. Xie have to question again? Are your ears failing at such a young age, or are you unwilling to admit that Miss Jiang isn’t as good as ?"
"Heh, very well."
Xie Xuanrong didn’t get angry at all, simply saying calmly, and turned to Lord Sacrificial Officer, "Lord Sacrificial Officer, didn’t I have two pieces of woodblock prints sent over before the banquet started?"
"The banquet is almost ending. Please, Lord Sacrificial Officer, unveil the silk cloth so that the many scholars present can appraise the Xie Family’s collection that has been treasured for years."
At these words, the crowd was exceedingly puzzled, not understanding why he abruptly changed the subject.
However, upon hearing ’Xie Family’s collection that has been treasured for years,’ the crowd’s interest was piqued. The Xie Family, being the leader among aristocratic families, has a history of several hundred years, their family heritage extrely rich.
Their collection must be extraordinary, and getting a glimpse is as difficult as scaling the heavens. Since the opportunity presented itself today, it naturally couldn’t be missed.
So, the crowd began urging Lord Sacrificial Officer.
"Lord Sacrificial Officer, since Mr. Xie has brought sothing good, let us all have a look, expand our horizons."
"Exactly, we want to see the Xie Family’s collection. Ending the banquet after viewing it isn’t too late. The Xie Family’s collection is much more breathtaking than any beauty."
"..."
Amid the hubbub of urging, Lord Sacrificial Officer finally recalled that when they entered, the Xie Family’s servant indeed brought sothing.
Originally, he intended to show everyone after the banquet, but after being so shocked and moved by the poems, he completely forgot about it.
"Where’s the item sent by the Xie Family?"
Lord Sacrificial Officer turned to the scholar beside him, who paused slightly, "There it is."
The elderly scholars all turned around, and saw on the stone table behind them, two items wrapped tightly in red silk cloth.
Just as Lord Sacrificial Officer was about to take them, soone beat him to it.
Zhu Yongcheng picked one in each hand, grinning, "Lord Sacrificial Officer, please take care, I’ll fetch it for you."
Without waiting for Lord Sacrificial Officer to react, he placed the two items on the main platform, eagerly helping to untie the red silk cloth.
The nearby scholars crowded around, all extraordinarily curious.
[Second brother, everyone went to see the commotion, let’s go have a look too.]
[Hurry, hurry, if we’re late, we’ll miss it.]
Yun Wanqing was also very curious about what Xie Xuanrong had brought, frantically urging Yun Wanye in her heart, while continuously patting his arm with her small hands, even pointing anxiously toward the main platform.
