Chapter 377 You don’t treat her as a human being at all!
Shu Yuanqi acted like a rough man, not realizing the trap in his words at all. He said frankly, "Hey! That girl Shu He is so stupid. How can she have her own judgment?! She just cries every day. We all dislike her and don't play with her."
"My mother wouldn't let her go out, fearing she would ruin the Shu family's reputation. So, she stayed in her own little courtyard every day, unaware of what was happening outside."
"For a long time, Yue'er was the only one who would talk to her and bring her news about her favorite, the Seventh Prince. So of course she believed Yue'er's words!"
Baili Moqing turned his head and looked at him, his eyes slightly shining, "My favorite, the Seventh Prince?"
Shu He felt a strange gaze, which made his cheeks red, and he felt as if there was a thorn in his back, and he was unable to sit still.
Baili Moqing noticed that her ears were red and she couldn't suppress the smile on her lips.
Shu He couldn't stand his gaze anymore and turned around to glare at him.
That look clearly said, "That was who I was in the past, not who I am now! Stop being so self-indulgent!"
Baili Moqing covered his mouth and coughed lightly, restraining his pride a little, and then asked, "You mean, she can't even leave the house normally?"
Shu Yuanqi nodded. "Yeah, she's so ugly, who would dare let her go out? If people knew I had such an ugly sister, I would be laughed to death!"
These words made Baili Moqing's face change.
Did the Shu family usually talk to her like this?
Looking at her again, her eyes were calm and her expression was indifferent, as if the person Shu Yuanqi was talking about really had nothing to do with her.
How many times must she have endured such humiliation to remain so calm?
When the people nearby heard this, sympathy and pity appeared on their faces.
"After all, they are siblings from the same mother. How could the second young master of the Shu family speak so harshly to his own sister?"
"Yeah! They keep calling her a pig and ugly. Listening to that, I can almost see the Shu family bullying Miss Shu He!"
"That's right! If it were me, being treated like this by my loved ones, I would want to die! I don't know how she grew up like this!"
"Haven't you heard? He grew up trapped! He couldn't see the outside world, he was trapped in a cage, and was bullied by vicious words every day. No wonder he went to extremes and did what he did to the then King of Dongli!"
Speaking of this, everyone fell silent, and their eyes turned to the victim of that incident that year, Baili Moqing.
However, the man was dressed in snow-white, like an immortal in the snow, calm and aloof.
"I remember that I was indeed poisoned that year, which is why I lost my mind. Afterwards, I had someone investigate, and the poison I was poisoned with was Cartilage Powder and Joy Powder, two poisons."
"If it's really as you said, then how did your Shu He, who normally can't even leave the house, manage to buy the Cartilage Powder, which even the royal family can't buy, and the Love Powder, which is banned on the market?"
"Not only that, a woman who never leaves her house was able to successfully attend the banquet at the Prime Minister's residence and finally successfully approach this king?"
Baili Moqing asked coldly, pointing out an irrationality that had been ignored by everyone.
Yes, what kind of coincidence must it be that all these impossible things can be successfully accomplished by one person?
"This...this..." Shu Yuanqi looked a little confused. "How should I know this?"
The people began to discuss again, "Could it be that there was something behind the flower banquet? Was it not Miss Shu He who drugged her, but someone else? Was Miss Shu He also framed?"
"After listening to what the prince said, this is most likely the case! Think about it, how could a little sparrow trapped in a cage possibly accomplish something that is harder than climbing to the sky?"
"And do you remember? There were rumors before that Miss Shu was frequenting brothels all year round! But how could a lady from a noble family who was locked up at home all day, never leaving the house, know where a brothel was? And how could she have the opportunity to go there all year round?"
"Yeah! Now that you put it that way, it seems like everything about Miss Shu He is very strange! It's like someone deliberately arranged it!"
"If Miss Shuhe is truly wronged, then she has suffered tremendously over the years! Not only has she been abused by her family, but she has also been misunderstood by the world..."
This is too bad!
Shu He listened to the people's discussions and felt a sense of relief that her injustice had been redressed. She should have been excited and happy at this moment, but why did she feel so calm?
Shu Yuanqi listened to what those people said, his face changed, and he argued, "How did we abuse her? At most, I scolded her a few times, mother, and at most, I slapped her twice! We gave her food and water, so what's wrong with beating and scolding her?"
"Who told her to be so ugly? She even ran into the garden when my classmates came to play at my house, and I was laughed at by them for years!!"
"She's not ugly! She just grew fat at that time! Besides, isn't it your sister Yue'er's fault that she became fat?" Zhang Zhirou couldn't help it again and was about to rush up and beat someone up. Fortunately, Jiang Dongping held her shoulders tightly to stop her from acting impulsively.
Zhang Zhirou struggled in vain and could only yell, "You bunch of beasts! You don't even treat her as a human being!"
A young lady from a wealthy family, yet treated like an animal! How did Sister He survive as a child?!
Zhang Zhirou's curses completely ignited the anger of the people. They rushed towards Shu Yuanqi, beating and cursing him.
What inhumanity, what bastard, what heartless...
Anyway, all the unpleasant words were directed at Shu Yuanqi.
The two brothers of the Zhu family had faces that were darker than the color of pig liver. Was this guy really here to identify someone?
Why does it feel like you are here to disrupt things?
"Ah! Don't hit me! Don't hit me! I know I was wrong!"
Shu Yuanqi's screams were drowned out by the crowd's curses.
Shu He looked at the scene, his eyes changing slightly.
Baili Moqing gave Xizhu a look, and Xizhu immediately stepped forward and stopped the people.
"Everyone, don't be anxious. There are still some things that haven't been made clear. Why don't we wait until everything is finished before fighting?"
When everyone heard this, they retreated in dissatisfaction and stood by, glaring at him, afraid that he would run away accidentally.
Looking at Shu Yuanqi again at this time, his face and body were covered with bruises, and he was crying with snot and tears.
"Don't hit me, don't hit me, I won't dare to do it again!!"
Zhang Zhirou looked at Shu Yuanqi with a face full of disgust, and sighed again, "How could Sister He have such a brother? It's really shameful!"
Baili Moqing continued to ask, "Shu Yuanqi, you said that the Miss Liu next to me is your sister Shu He. Do you have any evidence?"
One of Shu Yuanqi's eyes was black, and he could only half open the other. He looked at Baili Moqing fearfully, his eyes dodging.
He subconsciously wanted to escape, but Zhu Shun came close again, grabbed his collar, and said viciously, "Think carefully! If I find out you're playing tricks on me, I'll break your legs!!"
Shu Yuanqi glanced at the Zhu brothers, then at Shu He, lowering his head and saying, "I, I have evidence..."
