Reborn to marry the emperor, I just want to confuse the emperor and seize the throne

Ginkgo avoided his gaze, knelt and crawled on the ground, unable to utter a word, and trembling with fear.

Ye Susu thought that Yinxing was afraid, and lost her temper, and said, "Concubine Su was once sold to a brothel to entertain customers, so you framed Yinxing for stealing. She knew about your scandals, and you wanted to use this to get rid of her."

Su Tingwan became calm and composed, "Your Majesty, I didn't do that. She lied. I don't know why Doctor Ye wanted to frame me. I am innocent. Your Majesty is the only man I have in my life."

Xie Shang had a dignified temperament and cold eyes, and he did not express any opinions or comments.

Ye Susu stepped forward and pulled Yin Xing up, "Tell me the truth, and ask the prince to help you. Also, tell the prince who beat you up. Tell him everything."

"I was the one who beat him. Ginkgo stole my things and I was so angry that I beat him." Aunt Liu knelt on the ground and admitted it voluntarily. Ginkgo's indenture was held by the Su family and her indenture was a death indenture, so even if she was beaten to death by her master for making a mistake, she deserved it.

Ginkgo kowtowed and admitted her fault, "It was my fault. I shouldn't have stolen Aunt Liu's hairpin and given it to Doctor Ye. Doctor Ye gave me clothes and ointment to pay for them, but I didn't have any money. It was Doctor Ye who told me to steal, so I had the guts to steal Aunt Lin's hairpin to pay for it.

It was Doctor Ye who taught me that the concubine had been sold to a brothel, so that the prince would not favor the concubine again. Doctor Ye also said that as long as she could win the prince's favor, she would redeem me and let me follow her. She treated me very well, bathed me, fed me, applied medicine to me, and returned clothes to me. I was very grateful to her, and was bewitched by her to steal Aunt Liu's hairpin.

Who knew that just when I was about to ask Doctor Ye to give her the gold hairpin, they came up and said that I had stolen the gold hairpin and would send us to the general to be punished. We were afraid, so we were ready to accompany them. They said that they would not report us as long as they were happy.

I had no choice but to steal. If I had known, I would not have taken Doctor Ye's clothes and ointment." As she spoke, she took out the ointment from her arms.

Lin Feng was also dumbfounded when he heard such testimony.

Xie Shang frowned, his mind racing. It turned out that Su Xuan had made two preparations, and he had deliberately released Ginkgo to tie up Ye Susu.

Ye Susu felt like the sky was falling after hearing this, "Your Highness, I didn't ask her to steal anything. I gave her the clothes and ointment without asking for money. I also didn't instigate her to frame Concubine Su. She said that Concubine Su was sold to a brothel."

"Ginkgo, were you the one who told her these lies to slander me? You are my maid, have I not been good to you? Why did you betray me?" Su Tingwan knew that if she could get words out of Ginkgo and tell them to Xie Shang, she could prove that Ye Susu really had bad intentions and was a scheming woman to see if Xie Shang still liked her.

"Miss, I'm sorry, I was wrong. I was bewitched and instigated by her, thinking that you didn't want me anymore." Ginkgo kowtowed and apologized.

Ye Susu felt that she couldn't explain it clearly. "Ginkgo, don't tell lies. I felt sorry for you. You were covered in wounds and your clothes were torn and no one cared about you. That's why I gave you ointment and clothes."

"But you also want money. I don't have any money, so let me find a way to get money for you." Yin Xing said confidently, "You also have a jade bracelet from Aunt Liu on you. It also belonged to Aunt Liu."

This time Aunt Liu took action herself and actually found a bracelet from Ye Susu's bag. "Yes, this is mine. Ginkgo, you are really good at stealing. You actually stole something valuable."

Ye Susu didn't know when the bracelet was put into her bag. She tried hard to recall, wondering if it was put in when the soldiers pulled her just now.

Only then did she realize that she had been set up.

"You still say you have no other intentions?" Su Xuan said in a deep voice.

"What ulterior motives can I have? She is just a maid. What can I get from her? General Su, tell me! If I succeeded in framing Concubine Su, why is she standing here?" Ye Susu was not afraid of him. "Instead, it was General Su who asked your soldiers to do something bad to me. I will sue you."

"Your Majesty is wise, he will not believe your lies, or you haven't had time to frame Wanwan yet."

Su Xuan quickly knelt in front of Xie Shang and said, "I definitely did not allow anyone to rape Doctor Ye. I don't know anything about this matter. What did she and Ginkgo say? Ginkgo has already said that they wanted to keep things quiet and took the initiative to seduce the soldiers."

The soldiers nodded repeatedly, "How dare we touch her without Doctor Ye's consent?"

"Guard Lin, you saved us. You saw what happened just now. We were forced by the soldiers." Ye Susu said.

Lin Feng said, "Yes, when I arrived with my men, these soldiers were preparing to force Doctor Ye and Ginkgo." Because they were far away, he didn't hear clearly what they said, and he didn't dare to disrupt the prince's plan, so he had to let Doctor Ye suffer for the time being.

"We didn't force them, they did it voluntarily. There were only two women at the time and we were five grown men, so everyone was a little impatient and lost their sense of propriety. We accept the punishment. We shouldn't have lost control and almost made a big mistake." said the soldier.

"I really don't know what Doctor Ye and the prince said, but I really didn't lie to you. I was deceived, but I really have never been to a brothel. Ginkgo and I have always been together, and we are innocent." Su Tingwan also knelt on the ground and cried out for justice.

Ginkgo also said, "I have never been sold to a brothel. I have always been with the concubine. The bandits caught us and we have been imprisoned together. I am still a virgin. If Your Majesty does not believe me, you can ask someone to verify my identity. I have not lied to Your Majesty."

Even if they couldn't find out whether Su Tingwan had lost her virginity, Ginkgo was still a virgin. The two of them were together all the way and were sold to a brothel together. If she really entered the brothel, could Ginkgo still be innocent?

Since Ginkgo dared to allow someone to investigate, it proved that she was still a virgin.

Xie Shang had warned Ye Susu not to mention this matter again and to pretend that she knew nothing, but she insisted on revealing it in front of everyone. Now Su Tingwan has proved her innocence. This was the Su family's plan. From now on, he had no reason to drive Su Tingwan away.

Even if he knew that the Su family wanted to help Su Tingwan act, he couldn't do anything to Su Tingwan. If he went to check the location of the brothel, the distance from Shengjing to the border would be thousands of kilometers. Su Tingwan wouldn't tell him where to check. Would he have to announce the news that Prince Heng's concubine was sold to the brothel to the public? In the end, it would be Prince Heng who would lose face.

Unless the human traffickers come out and identify themselves, which human trafficker would be so stupid as to fall into the trap? If they really find out about the brothel and know that Su Tingwan is the prince's concubine, no one would dare to admit that they had forced Su Tingwan to receive customers.

Xie Shang had no choice but to bury all his doubts deep in his heart. After this incident, it no longer mattered who was at fault and who was not.

The important thing is that Su Tingwan proved her innocence. It was all Ye Susu's attempt to gain power and frame the concubine.

Xie Shang said in a deep voice, "Doctor Ye did not tell me that Concubine Su was sold to a brothel. I only found out about this now. Wanwan, have you ever been sold to a brothel?"
