“Lord, are you biased? Just because Su Yingxue has exceptional medical skills and saved Daddy, doesn’t mean she didn’t poison him!”
Su Yurou was so angry that her eyes turned red. Finally, she said something logical.
Liu Shulan, relieved by this, continued her line of thought, “Rou’er is right. Although Eldest Young Miss saved the Marquis, she was the one who instructed the renovation of the Marquis’s courtyard and ordered the furniture from Red Brocade Lane. How can you prove she isn’t the one who plotted against the Marquis?”
Su Yingxue chuckled softly and said, “That’s easily proven.”
Glancing around and not seeing her courtyard’s people, she turned to Chu Yihan. “Your Highness, could you search the Marquis’s Manor and find the people from my courtyard? Once you find my maid Zhilan, everything will become clear.”
Chu Yihan nodded and took action.
Mo Qi, accompanied by the Shadow Guards, searched the Marquis’s Manor and rescued Zhilan and the others from a cellar.
Liu Shulan’s heart skipped a beat seeing them. How could they be found so quickly? She hadn’t even had the chance to move them…
“Aunt, you think the most dangerous place is the safest. You hid my people in the Marquis’s Manor to avoid attention. You didn’t dare kill them all because handling the corpses would be difficult. So, you had to hide them. Am 1 right?”
Su Yingxue tilted her head innocently, causing the blood on Liu Shulan’s lips to visibly recede.
Su Yingxue was spot on! That was her exact plan! She couldn’t kill the people in her courtyard directly because the corpses weren’t easy to deal with. However, if they were transported out of the Marquis’s Manor, it would attract more attention, so she could only hide them.
But she didn’t expect them to be found so quickly.
“Lady Liu, why did you lock up everyone from Su Yingxue’s courtyard in the cellar?” Liang Jin frowned, noticing the flaw.
Supported by Su Yurou, Liu Shulan desperately tried to cover up, “That’s because… Su Yingxue is cunning. I feared her people would encourage her schemes and spread rumors, poisoning Marquis. After all, besides the Marquis, myself and Rou’er are here. For our safety, 1 had to take precautions!”
She cried softly, her tears dripping down her cheeks. She looked so pitiful that it made one’s heart flutter.
At this moment, Su Yurou knew to cry with Liu Shulan to gain sympathy.
It was a pity that Liang Jin’s tenderness was only towards his wife.
Therefore, he ignored Liu Shulan’s cries and called everyone in Su Yingxue’s courtyard over to examine them one by one. When it came to Zhilan, before Liang Jin could ask, Zhilan said angrily, “Lord Liang is helping my Miss. All of this was framed by Lady Liu! Miss didn’t go to Red Brocade Lane to customize furniture for Master!”
“Do you have proof?” Liang Jin’s expression was stern.
Liu Shulan tried to interject angrily, “You slanderous maid! Steward, take her out and punish her!”
“How dare you!” Su Yingxue glared. “My father is unconscious, and I run this manor. Who are you to give orders? Want to harm my maid?”
Su Yingxue’s smile turned icy as she looked at Zhilan. “Explain to Lord Liang and prove whether 1 customized furniture for Father..”
