Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife

Chapter 401



~ A HAMMER FELL DOWN! ~

The Eldest Madam secretly heaved a sigh of relief as the corner of her lips vaguely lifted. She turned her head to look at Mu Yunyao with a pained expression. “Yunyao, what else do you have to say for yourself now?”

Mu Yunyao still didn’t panic in the slightest. With a calm and tranquil tone, she said, “Eldest Aunt asked Second Aunt to finish her questions first. Why are you in such a hurry?”

The Second Madam looked at the others. “What about you? Could it be that she’s the only one who remembers? And none of you took good care of Fifth Miss?”

“We do not dare. Please Second Madam to clarify.”

“Fine, tell me, when did Fifth Miss stop you all from following her to the fake mountain behind Jiyue Pavilion?”

“Yes … I remember that it was also the seventeenth of August. It should be afternoon, and the sky was about to turn dark. Miss wanted to go to Jiyue Pavilion to take a look at the cinnabar Osmanthus. But seeing that it was already late, she decided to look from far away through the courtyard wall. That’s why she decided to walk over to the fake mountain and tried to step on a stone to look into the courtyard.”

The Second Madam frowned, “Are you sure it’s getting dark?”

“… Yes.”

Shen Ce’s face turned pale as the fear in his heart gradually grew. Previously, the Eldest Madam had never instructed him for a specific time before, but now, he could no longer match it!

The Second Madam’s body trembled. “My daughter wanted to step on the fake mountain to see the cinnabar Osmanthus in Jiyue Pavilion, but you servants weren’t follow her. Her body was already weak, and she had a cold during the Mid-Autumn Festival, so how could she climb the fake mountain alone? It seems that if I don’t punish you, you will not going to tell the truth! Someone come!”

The sounds of discussion among the guests gradually grew louder. It was obvious that they were in disagreement.

The Eldest Madam’s heart gradually tightened as she moved closer to the Old Madam. Taking advantage of the opportunity to support her, she squeezed her arm forcefully. “Mother....”

The Old Madam ignored it and quickly thought about the solution in her heart. Mu Yunyao was too intelligent. She knew that because she hastily arranged this matter, she definitely left loopholes. The more detailed the situation was, the easier it was for her to find those loopholes. Once the situation was opened, she could turn her over.

Several servants were being pressed to the ground and were beaten, but very soon, someone couldn’t take it anymore, “Second Madam, this servant said that Fifth Miss didn’t go to the fake mountain. She only wanted to go to Jiyue Pavilion, but before she could reach JIyue Pavilion, she felt a pain in her chest and was persuaded by the servants to go back. It was Mama Liu who found us and made us talk nonsense.”

Seeing that someone had let out the truth, the others couldn’t hold it in either. “We’ll explain as well, Second Madam. It was Mama Liu who forced us to say this.”

The Second Madam turned her head and looked at Mama Liu, who stood behind the Eldest Madam. She pointed and asked the guard to pull her over and press her on the ground, “Mama Liu, tell me the truth. Why did you bribe the people by Su You’s side? Why do you want them to talk nonsense?”

Mama Liu was frightened and stunned. She was pushed to the ground by the guards and couldn’t stop struggling to reach out. “I don’t know what they’re talking about, Second Madam. I’ve never bribe them at all!”

The Second Madam laughed coldly and gave the order immediately. “Beat her up! Beat her up harder until she’s telling the truth!”

“Stop!” The Old Madam opened her mouth to stop the guards. “Daughter-in-law Qi, using lynchings is inevitable. Don’t tell me you want this result?”

“Grandmother. “Mu Yunyao stood up,” Right now, the inquiry is about the critical moment. Why do you want to stop? Mama Liu is Eldest Aunt’s person, and she had been pointed out to be someone who had bribed Elder Sister Su You’s maids. Wasn’t that extremely unusual? Why did you stop him from checking? or do you already know something?”

“Yunyao, are you suspecting Grandmother? Su You is also my granddaughter. I have doted on her for so many years. If there is anything good to eat or fun to do in residence, I will ask someone to first gift a portion to her. Could it be that I will harm her?”

“Grandmother, there’s no need to be so excited. We’ll always be able to distinguish between right and wrong.”

The Eldest Madam’s face was filled with anger, “Yunyao, in order to get rid of your crime, you’ve really done everything possible. You even dared to frame your own grandmother, to stand up against her. How could your heart be so vicious when you’re still young?”

“Will Grandma let him to check?” Mu Yunyao didn’t give attention to the Eldest Madam and directly asked the Old Madam.

“I didn’t say I wouldn’t check it out. It’s just....” Under the gaze of everyone, she was not allowed to refuse.

“Then we’ll have to continue the investigation. Second Aunt, what are we waiting for? Let them do the questioning.”

Mu Yunyao had just finished speaking when she saw Shen Ce raise his head and shout loudly, “Miss Biao, stop it. Don’t go around harming other people. Those maids and mamas may be wrong, because they can’t remember what happened after so long. I have evidence to prove that I didn’t lie.”

Mu Yunyao looked at him coldly, “You have evidence?”

“That’s right, you have a red flower shaped birthmark on your left shoulder. I saw it when we were making love.”

BOOM!

The moment these words left his mouth, the noisy crowd immediately exploded. The guests all looked at Mu Yunyao with eyes filled with disbelief. If this evidence was true, even if Mu Yunyao had steel tendons and iron bones, she would still be smashed to the ground and unable to turn around!

Mu Yunyao’s eyebrows moved, and after a moment of thought, her eyes flashed with a bright light as she raised her hand to cover her left shoulder. “You’re talking nonsense!”

The Eldest Madam’s aura rose, and her heart was filled with admiration towards the Old Madam. No wonder she was not anxious. It was because she had this as a foundation, “Yunyao, you …. You really disappoint us. The Su family is an influential family, and they have their own reputation and image. We cannot tolerate such shameless and vulgar things. You actually … Your father had only died less than two years ago, and yet you’re still wearing your filial piety. If you were to put it in the countryside, you would have been dragged down to the bottom of the pond!”

The Old Madam sighed as she seemed to have aged even more. “I never thought that a good banquet would turn out like this. Yao’er, you....”

“Mother, you have to take care of your body. Mu Yunyao’s nature is despicable. No matter how much you treat her, she doesn’t know how to be grateful. Instead, she keeps on thinking that the Su family is trying to harm her, causing many things to happen. Since she back to the Su family’s residence, which day has it been quiet in this place? With her temperament, even if you gave her your heart and liver, She will only feel unspeakable!”

Mu Yunyao shook her head with a cold and mocking expression. “I really didn’t expect that in Eldest Aunt’s heart, I would be like this.”

“You were the one who disgraced the reputation of the Su family. Don’t tell me you’re not allowed others to speak of it?”

“Is that how you see me, Grandmother?”

The Old Madam heaved a heavy sigh, her eyes glistening with tears. “You are very... Grandmother very disappointed with you.”

“Hahaha.” Mu Yunyao suddenly burst into laughter, “Disappointed? Do you think you’re worthy enough to tell me you’re disappointed with me?”

The Eldest Madam frowned and shouted coldly, “Mu Yunyao, what do you mean by this? The Su family has found you back, have loved you dearly, given you the best place in the residence, and supported you in setting up Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo. Do you have anything to complain about?”

Mu Yunyao stopped smiling, and the sorrow in her eyes became even more intense. “Your plot is surprisingly good. This scheme is practically flawless, especially that bite of mine that Shen Cen bit into. If I can’t prove my innocence, I probably won’t even have the face to live anymore. But you’ve forgotten one thing. He said that I have a red flower birthmark on my shoulder. Did I really have it?”
