The first wife took the opportunity to cry softly in his arms, feeling extremely wronged. "Master, I wish to return to the manor. Here, they always bully me."
The prime minister looked at Sihan and Bing'er with extreme displeasure as he lightly patted the first wife's shoulder. "Alright, this prime minister will bring you back to the manor." With that, the prime minister grabbed the first wife and prepared to leave the hall.
When Nanhai saw this scene, he slightly furrowed his brows, secretly winking at Zhining, hinting for her to stop the first lady and the first minister.
He was waiting for the Prime Minister and the Chief Patrol Officer to make a ruckus, and then he would go on stage.
ZhiNing immediately understood. She stood in front of Master Xiang and coldly said, "Master, the eldest lady is a suspect in killing Xiu-Er. She can't leave this place for the time being."
A layer of anger immediately covered the Lord Prime Minister's face. His refined face immediately turned as cold as ice. [How dare you! The day Xiu-Er died, Shuyuan was always with me. Almost all the civil and military people in the kingdom will testify for me. How could she be the one who killed Xiu-Er?] What do you mean by slandering this lady over and over again? Did you not think much of the prime minister? " The tone of the question was bland, without any fluctuations. However, anyone who heard it could tell that their Prime Minister was furious.
ZhiNing hurriedly lowered her head and respectfully replied, "Master, this subordinate definitely doesn't have any intention of slandering First Madam. It's just that …"
"No?" "Not only did you say that the cotton was not from Shuyuan, but you also said that Xiu-Er killed Xiu-Er. If that isn't slander, then what is it?" The first minister coldly looked at Zhining and asked.
"What is it?" Sihan asked, standing at the side. "Master, if you trust the Madam so much, why don't you allow this commoner to examine her and prove her innocence?" When she finished speaking, Sihan deliberately looked at the commoners who were standing outside the torture chamber to watch. They all looked at the first wife and the first grandpa with suspicion. At the same time, they whispered to each other. Today, as long as the first wife did not allow her to examine herself, tomorrow's news would spread like wildfire through the streets. The first wife of the prime minister doted on her and not only did she snatch the child of her servant, she even killed her child's mother. The prime minister's innocence will be ruined.
She smiled faintly. On the surface, the Prime Minister did not seem to care about anything, but he was actually a man who cared a lot about his reputation. She intentionally glanced at the crowd of commoners outside, with the aim of making the Prime Minister see the strange looks in their eyes.
The Prime Minister followed Sihan's gaze. When he saw the citizens all looking at him and the Eldest Madam with strange gazes, he couldn't help but turn his head away, not looking at the commoners.
Sihan cast a glance at the surrounding commoners with a different intention, then said, "Even if it's to stop the unhurried masses, First Madam should let this commoner inspect it to prove her innocence."
The prime minister couldn't help but shout at Sihan with a cold look, "How dare you! How could a commoner like you refer to this as my wife!" How could he, a dignified lady of a country, allow a man to examine her?
Seeing that the first wife was angered, Sihan lowered her head hurriedly, clasped her hands, and said respectfully, "Please calm your anger, first lady. As a man, I naturally won't examine the first wife, in fact, I don't need to examine her. I only need to find a few women to examine her, and I'll find out whether or not she's Jinmian's mother."
Sihan's words brimming with confidence caused everyone present to look at her. Sihan smiled faintly, then looked at the prime minister. "Master, are you willing to help the first wife clear her grievances?" At the end of her sentence, she deliberately glanced at the crowd of commoners standing outside the Discipline Hall. She thought to herself, "The words of a person should be feared by all. Your lordship, you understand, right?"
The prime minister looked at the crowd gathered outside the torture chamber and then looked at the first lady, "Shuzhen, let the women take your body to block the entrance."
The first wife, who had been leaning on his shoulder, was startled. She raised her head to look at him and forced a smile, "Master, I'm fine."
"Shuzhen, for the sake of the prime minister's reputation, you should suffer for now." The prime minister looked at the first wife with a begging look and said, "If it wasn't to protect his reputation, he would never let Shuzhen be examined by the other women."
The first wife's expression immediately became ugly. Although she didn't know what method the youth would use to examine her, since he could find out that Xiu-Er had given birth, it meant that the boy wasn't an ordinary person.
She clenched her fists nervously and looked coldly at Sihan, who was standing by her side. She clenched her teeth and said, "Fine, I'll have a few normal women examine her." But, what if he is willfully slandering me? " The First Madam pointed at Sihan and said word by word.
The prime minister looked coldly at Sihan, following the direction the first wife pointed at. Then he snorted coldly, "This prime minister will definitely not let off anyone who wantonly insults you, Madam!"
Sihan snorted coldly to herself as she looked back at the prime minister without fear. Right now, the prime minister was treating her angrily. He wondered what the prime minister's expression would be like when the truth was revealed.
After that, Sihan walked towards the door of the Discipline Hall and pointed at a few of the slightly older wives. She called them over to the Discipline Hall and whispered a few words into their ears.
Then, Sihan walked in front of Lord Qi and clasped her hands. "May I ask Sir Qi if there's a secluded place behind the torture chamber?"
Lord Qi still remembered her, so he nodded at Sihan, "Yes."
"Can I use it for this commoner?" Sihan continued asking Lord Qi.
"Of course. coroner, bring Mister Liang to a secluded area in the backyard. " Lord Qi ordered the coroner who was standing behind him.
"Yes, milord." Cheng Guan looked at Sihan and accepted her order.
"Liang Si, thank you, milord." Sihan glanced at Lord Qi gratefully, then turned around to look at the First Madam. She extended her hand and gestured, "Great Madam, after you."
The first wife coldly looked at Sihan, and followed behind Cheng Guan in an extremely displeased manner, towards a secluded area at the back of the Discipline Hall.
A few women followed the first lady to a secluded place.
"You guys, just follow the method that I just handed to you and examine the First Lady. Do you understand? " Sihan looked at the women and exhorted, a little worried.
The wives nodded at Sihan, full of confidence. "Sir Liang, don't worry."
From Sihan Sword to the confident looks of the women, they immediately relaxed.
"Big but Liang Si, how could you be allowed to act so recklessly in the Discipline Hall?" Lord Zhuang, who had been silent all this time, looked at Han Li with a serious expression and asked.
Sihan turned to look at Lord Zhuang and replied respectfully, "Sir, this commoner did this just to prove that First Madame is not the mother of Jinmian. So we can find out why the first lady killed Xiu-Er. "
Mr. Zhuang could not help but snort, "This official would like to see what tricks you guys can come up with!"
Not long after, a few women walked out from the backyard with their heads down. The First Wife calmly walked into the Discipline Hall from the backyard.
