Chapter 310 What a coincidence
Chapter 310 What a coincidence
As soon as Shen Shuyi said this, Shen Jingchuan immediately became alert and said, "Go and ask a doctor or a monk from the Buddhist temple who knows medicine."
"Yes."
The attendant soon returned with a young mage who knew medicine. In front of everyone, Shen Shuyi had his pulse checked by the mage. After a moment, the mage bowed and said, "This donor's qi and blood are stagnant, and the meridians running to the left side of the lower back are blocked. This must be an external injury..."
Hearing this, Lin Xuan's expression finally changed, and Shen Jingyu's eyes became completely gloomy.
Shen Shuyi looked at Lin Xuan: "It seems that Master Lin is not aware of my condition."
Lin Xuan frowned and said, "Perhaps the doctor did not explain it clearly. After all, I am a man, so I will not be too rude to the young lady..."
Shen Shuyi smiled and said, "Master Lin, don't you feel that what you said is contradictory? Since you are not rude to me, and everything is handled by the servants and doctors, then may I ask what you did to me that you are worried about destroying my innocence?"
Shen Jingchuan also perked up at this time, and said in a cold voice: "Master Lin and I are colleagues. If Master Lin can't give an explanation for this matter, I will come to Brother Lin's house to ask for an explanation!"
Lin Xuan was speechless for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "There are people around Zhuangzi that day who can testify that I, Lin Xuan, am innocent. I just did a good deed, but I didn't expect to be misunderstood like this."
"The Shen family is indeed a famous family, but our Lin family is not bad either. If I were not worried about the young lady's future marriage, why would I, Lin Xuan, come to ask for marriage?"
Speaking of this, Lin Xuan's expression was extremely indignant.
Shen Shuyi smiled and said, "Since Master Lin is so sure, why not invite the people who were near the manor that day to come and confront him."
Shen Shuyi was really not afraid of trouble in this matter. Even if someone really testified, there were so many neighbors around, and lies would always have loopholes, especially the more people there were, the more loopholes there would be.
Without waiting for Lin Xuan to agree, Shen Shuyi said, "But there is one thing Master Lin should know. That day, I fell from the forest and happened to fall into the hunting ground of the Third Prince. Even though I was injured and asked for help, I don't know how I asked Master Lin for help outside the hunting ground?"
Lin Xuan's face froze slightly, obviously he had not expected this question.
The same thing happened to Shen Jingyu standing by. She slowly tightened her fingers, as if Shen Shuyi had surprised her again.
She thought that Shen Shuyi had played a trick on Xiao Heyu and would never dare to admit in public that she was the one who fell into the hunting ground that day. Unexpectedly, she did not hide it at all.
Lin Xuan was placed in a dilemma at the moment. After all, if he could not justify himself, it would prove that he was slandering Shen Shuyi. But if he said that his manor was adjacent to the Third Prince's hunting ground and he could enter and exit the Third Prince's hunting ground, he would be held accountable by the Third Prince.
Lin Xuan was somewhat at a loss for words. Facing everyone's gaze, he stammered, "The hunting ground is located between the mountains and forests, so there must be entrances and exits all around. Just as Miss Shen could have fallen from the mountainside to the hunting ground, it is also possible that Miss Shen could have left the hunting ground, and perhaps happened to be near the manor where I am."
After saying this, without waiting for Shen Shuyi to speak again, Lin Xuan said, "Forget it. Since Miss Shen is not worried about damaging her reputation, it is Lin who is being sentimental. Today, just pretend that Lin has never been here. It is better not to mention this life-saving favor."
After saying this, Lin Xuan turned around and prepared to leave.
Shen Shuyi's eyes were cold, and she had to admit that Lin Xuan was smart.
Indeed, the hunting ground was in the woods. Since she could accidentally fall from a great height, how could she be sure that she could not leave from a certain direction?
Seeing that he could not prove himself at this moment, he planned to leave.
In this way, she became the one who couldn't explain it clearly!
Want to go?
What a beautiful thought!
Just as Lin Xuan took a step forward, Qin Xin and Jian Po blocked his way. Lin Xuan frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Since Master Lin is afraid of ruining my reputation, Shuyi will naturally ask for clarification on this matter. Master, you don't have to leave in a hurry. Not long ago, my father sent someone to the vicinity of the Lin family's manor to invite someone. In addition, please let me know the address of the doctor you mentioned."
Shen Shuyi's expression was cold, and every word he spoke was neat. The coldness between his brows did not reveal any trace of charm or panic.
Lin Xuan's mind raced, and he couldn't help but glance at Shen Jingyu beside him. Shen Jingyu stepped forward and said slowly, "Second sister said that she had never seen Master Lin that day. Can anyone testify to that?"
Jinzhu stepped forward and said to Shen Jingchuan, "We servants have never left the young lady, and we can all testify to this."
Yu Ping also nodded: "We got lost in the forest and walked for several days. Although the young lady was injured, she was not seriously injured and unconscious, and she never asked for help. Therefore, we have never seen the young master in front of us."
Qin Xuerong frowned and said, "Although what these servants said makes sense, they are all people around Sister Yi, so their words may not convince others."
As he spoke, a cold and deep voice sounded behind the group of people: "I wonder if Madam Shen thinks what I said is convincing enough?"
The voice seemed to be tempered by ten thousand years of ice, sending chills down one's spine for no apparent reason, yet it also carried with it the majesty of a superior.
Everyone immediately turned their heads to look, subconsciously making way for him. Some people reacted quickly and bowed to greet him: "Greetings, Your Highness! Best regards, Your Highness!"
Shen Shuyi looked up and saw a luxurious sedan chair with golden python and dragon patterns that was carried aloft by eight people. A man dressed in a crimson purple brocade robe with python patterns of the sun and the moon was leaning against the sedan chair. The man was in a lazy posture, holding a folding fan in one hand, and his jade-like face was half covered with a silver-white mask with lotus patterns.
Under the mask were a pair of evil and romantic phoenix eyes. His pupils were pitch black, like thick ink that could not be dissolved. At this moment, he lowered his eyes slightly and glared at everyone coldly, with a stern and cold look that made people surrender involuntarily.
Shen Shuyi was slightly distracted. The man came with light and shadow behind him. The silver-white mask was strange and beautiful, reflecting a dazzling cold light.
At this moment, the group of people carrying the sedan chair were eight tall and strong men, all of whom were full of murderous aura, like the Yama King who walked out of hell.
Qin Xuerong's heart tightened: This is...
Shen Jingchuan, who was standing by, immediately scolded in a low voice: "What are you doing? Why don't you pay your respects to the Wolf King?"
"Greetings, Your Highness!" Qin Xuerong spoke quickly. After lowering her head in panic, she couldn't help but shiver.
The man's eyes fell on Qin Xuerong, and he closed the folding fan in his hand and said coldly: "I heard that there was a lawsuit here, so I came to join in the fun."
Shen Jingchuan stepped forward and said respectfully, "Speaking of which, it is my family affair. I didn't expect to disturb His Majesty while he was worshipping Buddha. A few days ago, the Shen family was stabbed on the mountain road on the way to the Jade Buddha Temple to pray for blessings. Unfortunately, the carriage my daughter was in rolled down..."
Shen Jingchuan briefly recounted what happened. As soon as he finished speaking, the man looked up at Lin Xuan and said in a deep voice, "So, five days ago, it was Master Lin who saved Second Miss Shen."
Lin Xuan's throat tightened, and he said with gritted teeth, "Yes."
The Canglang King raised the corners of his lips and said in a cold voice: "What a coincidence, five days ago, I led my subordinates to inspect and rescued Miss Shen Er in the hunting grounds of His Highness the Third Prince."
