Chapter 492 Exposed
Chapter 492 Exposed
"Because our young lady passed away and couldn't get married, the lady forced me to marry her in her place. She also said that as long as I listened to her, I would be Zhong Xinyu, the only legitimate daughter of the Zhong family."
"But I grew up with the young lady, and she treats me like a sister. How could I possibly do something like impersonating the young lady and marrying her in her place?"
"Before the young lady died, Madam Xu and Master Zhong threatened me with the young lady's life. I had no choice but to help them impersonate the young lady and deceive people."
"Now that the young lady is dead, I don't want to live anymore. I just hope that Princess Ye and His Highness Ye Wang will not be deceived by such people. I also hope that everyone can see clearly what kind of people Master Zhong and Madam Xu are. They even use their own biological daughters. See how cruel they are."
Both Xu and Zhong Changli were dumbfounded, especially Xu. She never expected that Ming Xia, who had always been well-behaved and obedient, would betray them at the critical moment.
She was so shocked that she rushed directly to Ji Yuntang and waved her hands to explain.
"No, that's not the case. Xinyu is not dead. Princess Ye, don't listen to her nonsense."
"The person riding in the bridal sedan today was originally Xinyu. I don't know how it became Mingxia."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and pointed at Ming Xia viciously, "It was her. She must be jealous that my daughter Xinyu could marry His Royal Highness the Night King, so she deliberately impersonated her."
Ming Xia sneered and mocked: "Madam Xu, are you still deceiving yourself even now?"
"To find out whether the young lady is dead or not, call the two servants who carried the coffin last night and ask them, then you will know!"
After Ming Xia finished speaking, she turned to look at Ji Yuntang and said, "Princess Ye, please ask the two servants around the eldest young master to come and confront this servant face to face."
"Okay!" Ji Yuntang raised his eyebrows and looked at Luo Sinian, "Your Highness Prince Chen, please send someone to the Zhong Mansion to find those two servants."
After watching the show for so long, Luo Sinian has already guessed Ji Yuntang's intention.
The promise to let Miss Zhong marry in and the generous betrothal gift were only made to let the people of the Zhong family let down their guard so that they could be dealt the heaviest blow.
Although Luo Sinian didn't know what exactly happened here, he knew that everything that was happening now must be under Ji Yuntang's control.
He responded and sent two guards to the Zhong Mansion to arrest the person!
The two servants who were carrying the coffin were eventually captured by Luo Sinian's men!
They were all confused when they were caught, until they saw Ming Xia wearing her wedding dress, then they were shocked.
Today Mingxia is marrying on behalf of Miss Zhong, but now she is marrying her own face.
This shows what?
This means that the substitute marriage arranged by Madam Xu has been discovered by Princess Ye!
And last night, the two of them carried Miss Zhong's body out and threw it away.
They suddenly had a bad feeling in their hearts.
At this time, Ming Xia walked up to them, stared at the two of them, and asked in a cold voice: "Did Madam Xu ask you two to carry the young lady's body out yesterday?"
The two were frightened to death in an instant. They knelt on the ground, shaking their heads like rattles.
"I don't know. I'm just a servant who looks after the yard. I don't know anything."
They knew in their hearts that if they said it, they would offend the people in the Yewang Mansion, and if they didn't say it, they would offend the people in the Zhong Mansion. They couldn't afford to offend either of them.
Ji Yuntang narrowed his eyes and looked down at them, "If you two don't tell the truth, this princess will kill you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Sinian drew out the sword in his hand, which scared the two men half to death.
They quickly confessed: "Tell me, I tell you, yesterday the Madam did ask us to put the young lady's body into the coffin, and then carry it out and bury it secretly at night!"
Ming Xia hurriedly asked: "Where did you bury it? In the Zhong family's ancestral tomb?"
The two men shook their heads and said, "No... no, the eldest master did not allow the young lady to be buried in the ancestral tomb, and asked the two of us to find a random place to bury her."
"We saw that it was getting late, so we just dumped the coffin on the barren hill and ran back for the sake of convenience!"
Luo Sinian asked, "Where is that mountain?"
The servant stammered, "No... I don't remember. It was too dark and I couldn't see clearly."
Xu was almost angry to death. She felt a little regretful that she did not get rid of the two traitors in time.
The people around started pointing and talking at them.
"Oh my god, could it be that Miss Zhong is really dead? This Zhong Changli and Madam Xu are so bold that they actually let the maid pretend to be Miss Zhong to marry in her place. Isn't this a blatant marriage fraud?"
"I think they are after the Night Princess's property. They looked down on His Royal Highness the Night Prince before, but now that the Night Prince's Mansion is doing well financially, they are plotting to take over her position as the Princess. They even brazenly say that they want her to be responsible. Who knows what they are thinking behind this?"
"..."
The people's gossip almost drowned out Xu and Zhong Changli, and they wished they could dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it.
Ming Xia looked at this scene and felt extremely happy.
She and her young lady had been bullied by Xu and Zhong Changli for so long, and now they could finally let them experience the feeling of being drowned in spit!
This is all retribution!
Ming Xia knew that he had completed his mission, and the next step was Ji Yuntang's!
Thinking of this, she knelt on the ground and said loudly: "It was wrong for me to agree to Madam Xu and Master Zhong's lies. I know that I have sinned deeply. Now I have nothing else to ask for. I only ask that Princess Ye can grant me death. I am willing to die to atone for my sins."
"Okay, I will grant you your wish." A faint light flashed in Ji Yuntang's eyes. She flashed and appeared in front of Ming Xia in the next second.
The silver hairpin was pulled out from her head, and the sound of flesh being pierced was heard. Ming Xia's chest was already covered in blood.
She stared at Ji Yuntang with wide eyes, and her body fell limply to the ground. Ji Yuntang withdrew his hand and glanced at Ming Xia on the ground with cold eyes.
"This maid is so bold that she dared to pretend to be Miss Zhong and deceive the prince and me. She even dreamed of becoming the prince's concubine. She deserves death. It would be too easy for me to kill her!"
"Someone, take her body away. Don't let her die at the gate of the Night King's Mansion. It's bad luck!"
Chen Hu hurried forward and carried Ming Xia's body away.
Ji Yuntang then turned to look at Zhong Changli, a sneer on her lips.
"Zhong Changli, I really underestimated your Zhong family. You even did something like replacing a girl to marry her off. If I hadn't discovered this today and let this little maid enter the house, wouldn't I have let this little maid take advantage of me?"
"What is your intention in doing this?"
