Chapter 133 Brother and Sister Betting
"According to what Third Brother said, you were given some kind of aphrodisiac. But even if the drug is very strong, it can't completely destroy a person's will, right? What's more, Third Brother is a martial artist and a famous martial arts champion in the capital!"
Xie Zisheng frowned, "I don't know! I just felt dizzy at the time! It was like a fire was burning in my heart! Even so, I still had my sanity!"
"Since you still have some sense left, why don't you go out and ask for help instead of letting yourself sink?"
"That's right!" echoed the third prince.
Xie Zisheng frowned, "I thought so too, but just when I was about to go out, I heard the sound of the piano!"
"Piano sound? What piano sound?" Xie Qian asked.
Xie Zisheng shook his head, "It should be a guqin or pipa. The sound is very low and deep, and very short. It doesn't form a tune. But those few notes made me lose my mind! Father, can you imagine that the sound of the guqin seems to have the ability to bewitch people's hearts. It makes me feel that the evil fire that could have been suppressed has suddenly burned up! It has burned away the remaining sanity of mine!"
"Ha." Someone beside him sneered.
Xie Zisheng's eyes widened: "Xie Lanzhao, what are you laughing at!"
Everyone's doubtful eyes fell on the lake blue girl again, but they heard her slowly say: "Third brother is really trying to exonerate himself. He can make up any lie!"
There was a hint of mockery in her distinctly black and white almond-shaped eyes.
"I didn't lie!" Xie Zisheng's eyes were filled with fire.
Feng Jia was not afraid, and met his gaze directly: "Forgive my sister for my shallow knowledge, I have never heard any piano music that can be so bewitching!" She turned around and bowed to the side: "Third Prince, you are knowledgeable, I wonder if you have heard of this?"
The Third Prince looked at the beauty in front of him, and his soul almost lost itself. Hearing this, he smiled innocently: "I have never heard of it, never heard of it!"
"What about the Ninth Prince?" Feng Jia still had a smile on her face.
The Ninth Prince's face froze for a moment, but facing everyone's inquiring gazes, he still said truthfully: "I have never heard of it either."
"Your Highness the Ninth Prince!" Xie Zisheng frowned and couldn't help but shout.
"Whether or not there is any deceptive intention is not the key point of this case. The crux is that Third Young Master Xie keeps saying that he was drugged!" After a pause, the Ninth Prince looked at Feng Jia with a hint of teasing in his eyes, "As long as it is proven that what Third Young Master said is true, and we follow the clues he provided, it will be useless even if the murderer tries to argue!"
Xie Zisheng seemed to have been enlightened and looked to Xie Qian for help. Xie Qian understood and immediately asked the doctor from the mansion to come over. Doctor Jiang, who had received the invitation and came to congratulate, also volunteered to help. The two doctors checked the wine glasses, wine jugs, food, etc. at the banquet according to what Xie Zisheng said.
Xie Zisheng had a determined smile on his face.
However, the face of Mrs. Meng, who was standing next to her, became paler and paler, and she was on the verge of collapse.
"Reporting to His Majesty the Third Prince and His Majesty the Ninth Prince, we have checked everything and there is nothing unusual." Imperial Doctor Jiang said respectfully.
Xie Zisheng was struck by lightning: "How is it possible!"
He rushed forward and even tried to grab Doctor Jiang by the collar to question him. Xie Qian immediately reprimanded him: "Don't be rude!"
Xie Zisheng gave up, but his face was still full of disbelief, and he said: "If it wasn't put in the food, then it must have been given in some other way! Doctor Jiang, please feel my pulse and see if what I said is true!"
After saying that, Xie Zisheng rolled up his sleeves, and the determined smile on his face disappeared completely, and he even had cold sweat on his face because of anxiety.
Doctor Jiang glanced at the two princes, and after getting their tacit approval, he stepped forward and began to feel Xie Zisheng's pulse. After a while, he shook his head with an unhappy look on his face: "Third Young Master, your pulse is normal, just like everyone else's!"
"He's no different from an ordinary person, which means he wasn't drugged. Does that mean everything the Third Young Master said just now was a lie?" The crowd exploded.
Xie Zisheng swept everyone away. They gathered together and pointed at him. His face swelled with shame. He gritted his teeth and tried his best to defend himself: "Impossible! I didn't lie. Every word is true!"
Meng fell into the maid's arms and was almost out of breath. Doctor Jiang naturally couldn't find anything! Because she asked someone to buy this aphrodisiac for a large sum of money, it is colorless and tasteless! And the effect is very short! It can last for a stick of incense in a closed space! However, from the time Zisheng was deceived to the West Chamber to now, time has long passed, so naturally nothing can be found!
When Meng thought about how Xie Lanzhao used the same method on her to deal with her on her beloved third son, causing him to lose all face, she felt a surge of anger vibrating in her chest, as if she was going to vomit blood!
Feng Jia smiled and said, "Third brother, you wronged me, shouldn't you apologize to me?"
Xie Zisheng did not give up. He pointed at Feng Jia with a firm tone and said, "Apologize? Forget it! The medicine must still be in your possession, you vicious woman! Someone, search for me!"
They actually wanted to search me by force.
Unfortunately, his plan was too good. If there were only people from the Xie family here, Xie Qian would definitely agree. However, facing so many guests, searching the body of an unmarried daughter in public was tantamount to rubbing Xie Qian's face on the ground.
Sure enough, the next second, Xie Qian's face turned pale and he shouted, "Enough!"
"Father!" Xie Zisheng cried out in grief. He absolutely could not bear the charge of adultery in the harem. How could his bright future be ruined by the schemes of a little woman? !
"Don't you think you've been embarrassed enough?" Xie Qian narrowed his eyes.
"I..." Xie Zisheng's chest rose and fell violently, but he couldn't utter a word. If possible, he even wanted to rush up and stab the vicious ninth sister in the chest to vent his anger!
Feng Jia stood up at this time: "Father, Your Highnesses, if I am not searched today, my third brother will definitely not let me go in the future. Since my third brother does not believe me, Lan Zhao is willing to be searched to prove his innocence!"
Xie Zisheng was stunned, frowning, not believing that she could be so kind. Sure enough, he heard her say, "But if you don't find anything suspicious on me, Third Brother, you have to apologize to me in front of everyone."
After a pause, she emphasized: "Kneel down and apologize!"
“Xie Lanzhao, don’t go too far!” Xie Zisheng’s eyes were filled with anger and his fists were clenched so tightly that they made a clattering sound.
"Lan Zhao, don't be so rude." Xie Qian glanced at her unhappily.
Feng Jia smiled and said, "Third brother doesn't want to?"
"A man's knees are made of gold! How could a man of seven feet tall like me kneel down to a shallow woman like you!" Xie Zisheng pointed at Feng Jia.
Feng Jia was still smiling, but her smile was completely invisible to her eyes: "Third brother wants fame, but I don't? Third brother asked people to search my body in public, which is more humiliating than asking me to kneel down! Lan Zhao still said the same thing, if you want to search my body, fine, I am innocent and I am not afraid of your search, but if you don't find what you want, you have to kneel down and apologize to me!"
