Quick Transmigration: She's a Heartbreaker: Ch 112, The Imposter Noble Lady "Princess, Princess, what's wrong with you?" Princess Qing Jue's personal maid held her in astonishment. "Huan'er!" The princes were also shocked. In front of so many people, Princess Qing Jue’s clothes were already disheveled and dancing like a madman. If it weren't for her being held by the maid, they were afraid her behavior would be even more exaggerated. Since Jiang Xun was close to Princess Qing Jue, sitting at the table next to her, when Princess Qing Jue went crazy, she almost bumped into her. She stretched out her hand to support herself, but her clothes were clenched by Princess Qing Jue and almost dragged her down. Afraid that Jiang Xun would be hurt, Shen Xi Tang pulled her to his side and brushed off Princess Qing Jue's hand. He tossed Princess Qing Jue to the maid, and then whispered to Jiang Xun, "Be careful." Jiang Xun let out an "En.” Wei Ming Yu shouted loudly, "Quickly get a doctor to come, the princess is unwell." Soon enough, the maid couldn’t control Princess Qing Jue. Seeing that she was about to break free, Yan Shen stepped forward and chopped the back of her neck with the palm of his hand, causing Princess Qing Jue to faint in a blink of an eye. "Isn't General Shen proficient in medical skills? The doctor hasn't come yet. Why don't you take the pulse for the princess and see what's going on with her?" Yan Shen looked at Shen Xi Tang. "This Shen only has a superficial understanding , so I would only embarrass herself. It wouldn’t be good if the diagnosis was wrong, it would be better to wait for the doctor to come." Shen Xi Tang’s expression didn't change as he refused coldly. Yan Shen peered at him sideways, his eyes casually falling on Jiang Xun, somewhat sarcastic. After a while, the people from the Seven Treasures Association invited a doctor. Once the doctor treated Princess Qing Jue, the princes asked him what happened to the princess. The doctor truthfully reported the princess had been poisoned by a poison that could make people temporarily crazy and behave badly before giving the princess Qing Jue a detoxification pill. "This kind of poison usually takes effect within half an hour. If I may ask, what did the princess eat just now?" The maid beside the princess recalled for a moment, "The princess only ate the cakes and tea provided by the Seven Treasures Association and hadn’t eaten anything else." As soon as the palace maid’s voice fell, Shopkeeper Yang from the Seven Treasures Association immediately knelt on the ground. Princess Qing Jue quickly recovered after taking the antidote. She was actually conscious just now, but she couldn’t control her behavior. Now that she heard she had been drugged, her face was ugly and mixed with anger. It looked like she was immediately about to berate the Seven Treasures Association. At this time, Wei Ming Yu suddenly spoke up, "The Seven Treasures Association and the princess have no grievances nor grudges. If the princess has an accident, they won’t be able to escape the blame. It is impossible for them to spike the food, I’m afraid the poisoner is someone else. Everyone felt reasonable after hearing this. Someone asked, "Who would poison the princess? This is a major crime." "The princess behaved abnormally after being poisoned. I think it’ll be the person among the people present who wants the princess to make a fool of herself the most. That will be murderer." Wei Ming Yu's words made everyone confused, but Princess Qing Jue instantly turned to Jiang Xun. "It's you!" Princess Qing Jue pointed at Jiang Xun and stated angrily, "How dare you actually harm Bengong?" Jiang Xun looked back at Wei Ming Yu and a sharp cold light flashed by. Wei Ming Yu was startled, but tried to calm herself down. Jiang Xun calmly reasoned, "I didn't spike the food. I stayed by General Shen’s side the entire time and didn’t leave for a moment. There’s no chance for me to spike the food at all." "Who didn't know you had a quarrel with the princess at the flower viewing banquet a few days ago? You must still hold a grudge and today you seize the opportunity to take revenge against the princess! As for the spiking, you wouldn’t need to do it yourself. Maybe you bribed someone early on. "Wei Ming Yu put out the rhetoric she had prepared beforehand. Jiang Xun faintly refuted, "Then I can also say that you’re a thief calling thief. The princess also punished you last time, do you also hold a grudge?" Princess Qing Jue looked at Wei Ming Yu and her eyes flashed with suspicion. However, she still looked at Jiang Xun with a sneer, "It has to be you. The gaze you had towards me was simply wrong just now. Your sneakiness definitely means you're suspicious." Shen Xi Tang watched Princess Qing Jue coldly, his eyes made Princess Qing Jue a little scared, "Please be careful with your words, Princess, Jiang Xun is the fiancée of This Official. I believe she will not do such a thing.” "Huan'er, you can't talk nonsense without evidence." Yan Cong said. "Everything is just speculation, it's better to investigate it clearly first." Princess Qing Jue became angrier when she saw Shen Xi Tang's protective attitude toward Jiang Xun. She didn't even want to find out who was responsible for the drugging, she just wants to deal with Jiang Xun now. Su Xun, who hasn’t spoken at all, suddenly said, "Miss Jiang, if you did it, just admit it. If the investigation finds out it’s you, you will not only be punished, but will also lose the Yan family's face." Jiang Xun finally realized: it turned out that these two people had joined hands without her knowing. Fortunately, before she came to trouble them, they brought it upon themselves. Then, they can’t blame her for retaliating. "If it was Miss Jiang who did the poisoning, she might still have some residue on her body. As long as we search, we might know if she did it." Wei Ming Yu suggested. Jiang Xun frowned slightly. She thought in her heart: Since Wei Ming Yu dared to say that, then she might have left the evidence on her. Jiang Xun was still composed, "Why should you be able to search me just based on some baseless statements?" "You’re having a guilty conscience, you dare to do it but don't dare to suffer the consequences." Wei Ming Yu only kept insisting that Jiang Xun did it. Princess Qing Jue suddenly rushed over to slap Jiang Xun's face. Just when her hand was about to reach Jiang Xun's cheek, she was stopped by Shen Xi Tang. Jiang Xun could still feel a gust of the palm wind. She immediately stepped back two steps, hearing Princess Qing Jue’s angry curses. "Miss Jiang, disregarding whether you did it or not, just let them search you. If they don't find anything, they could still return you your innocence." Su Xun gently persuaded her with a considerate appearance. Many people present nodded in agreement. Princess Qing Jue said to the several princes, "Imperial Brothers, are you just going to watch me being bullied and not care about me?" Yan Cong glanced at Jiang Xun and saw her standing there elegantly. Her face was aloof without any of the embarrassment or regret of being exposed. Her eyes were clean and beautiful like the cleanliness of a stream on a mountain. He truly can't believe that she would do such a thing. However, at this point, there was no way to prove her innocence besides searching her. Jiang Xun told herself that at this time, she must not be thrown into disarray. She said lightly, "I am innocent. This matter has nothing to do with me." "Hmph, you’re not going to cry until you see your own grave, huh? I think you dare to poison me because you feel that there’s someone as your backer, so you have no fear." Princess Qing Jue was sure that it was Jiang Xun, who poisoned her. "I didn't do it, naturally I won't admit to it." Jiang Xun was unmoved. "Whether you’re innocent or not, we only have to search you to know." Wei Ming Yu declared coldly, "Or, does Miss Jiang know with General Shen's protection, she can be this rampant?" Everyone all looked toward Shen Xi Tang, turning the fire on Shen Xi Tang. If they were more serious about this matter, they could even say that Shen Xi Tang allowed his fiancée to poison the princess. Jiang Xun raised her eyes to look at Shen Xi Tang, but saw that he was calm, as if saying "rest assured" to her. He gave her a blink and Jiang Xun immediately understood what he meant. "Since you insist on searching my body, it’s not like it's impossible. But although I come from a humble background, I also have a marriage bestowed by the emperor on me, people may not humiliate me freely. I will put forth these words here first. If you don’t find anything, what shall you do? "Her clear voice wags like a clear spring flowing through everyone's heart. "If nothing is found, I will apologize to you." Jiang Xun couldn't help laughing. Wei Ming Yu frowned and asked, "What are you laughing at?" "You insulted, deceived me and charged me with random charges like so, and you thought a mere apology would do. How isn't it ridiculous?" Jiang Xun remarked in a sarcastic tone. "Then what do you want?" Wei Ming Yu said. "If nothing is found, then you’ll have to pay the price for slandering me." Jiang Xun replied. "Hmph, you’re just struggling for a dying cause." Wei Ming Yu sneered in a low voice, "Alright, if we don't find anything, I will slap myself ten times." Jiang Xun smiled, "Okay." Yan Cong ordered, "Will Shopkeeper Yang please send someone to accompany this doctor to search Miss Jiang’s body?" Jiang Xun followed Shopkeeper Yang to the side room. When she passed by Yuan Yu, she suddenly felt her knee was hit, almost causing her to fall. Yuan Yu, who stood beside her, gave her a hand. Jiang Xun glanced at Yuan Yu, confused. She only saw her blinking at herself and lightly cautioning, "Miss Jiang, be careful." Jiang Xun nodded, and then continued to move forward. --- --- --- A quarter of an hour slowly passed by. During this time, Princess Qing Jue couldn't wait to punish Jiang Xun, making her wish she was dead. Yet, when Jiang Xun exited, her expression was natural without any unusualness. Princess Qing Jue frowned and gritted her teeth. After waiting for the other two to come out, she hurriedly asked, "How is it? Found anything?" The Seven Treasures Association’s Shopkeeper Yang responded, "Nothing special was found." Wei Ming Yu almost shouted out immediately, "How is that possible?!" Her expression had already become stiff and blue. "Indeed, nothing special was found." That doctor stroked his beard and confirmed. "Since Miss Jiang is not the poisoner, who is the one who did it?" Someone asked in a low voice. Princess Qing Jue was extremely unwilling. She raised her voice, "The truth must be found, otherwise you, Seven Treasures Association, will be responsible. Today, I only ate what you have provided here." Shopkeeper Yang’s brows have never been relaxed. Today, Princess Qing Jue had an accident within the Seven Treasures Association. Naturally, his Seven Treasures Association wouldn’t be able to escape its involvement. Otherwise, the Seven Treasures Association would definitely suffer from the princess’ wrath. Therefore even without her saying, he would also make the truth come to light. "This is natural, please don't worry, Princess. My Seven Treasures Association will be responsible for this matter today. The most urgent task at hand now is to find the culprit." "How do you plan to find them?" Princess Qing Jue expressed dissatisfaction. Before Shopkeeper Yang could speak, Jiang Xun said calmly. "Since I’ve been searched and nothing was found, shouldn’t the Wei family’s Young Miss do what she had promised?" "You!... …" Wei Ming Yu was both distressed and livid. However, she quickly changed her expression. She elegantly yet politely bowed to Jiang Xun and softly uttered, "Since I misunderstood Miss Jiang, I will naturally apologize to you." Jiang Xun laughed coldly in her heart as she looked at her sarcastically, "The Wei family's Young Miss really has a bad memory. Do you need me to remind you of what you had said?" The author has something to say: Jiang Xun: Wanting to bully me, can’t you see how many Big Pig Trotters I’m being protected by? Please slap yourself now __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Notes: not crying until seeing your own grave (不见棺材不落泪): similar to the English idiom of not shedding tears until faced with grim reality
