Chapter 2631: Chapter 2632: Return to Tianyun (198)

Su Xing immediately looked at Mrs. Cao with a face full of disbelief: "Mother, you actually..."

"Mother..." Taoming Ye also looked incredulous.

"Madam..." Honestly, Tao Chengyin also found it hard to believe. He had originally thought his proper wife was innocent, but now it seems, it really was his first wife who did it.

"Princess, I’m being wronged! Wronged!" Mrs. Cao shouted frantically, "Someone is definitely framing me, placing that thing in my room to set me up!"

Considering Tao Chengyin’s feelings, Su Xing looked at Tao Chengyin: "Father, look..."

Tao Chengyin closed his eyes and said: "Do what needs to be done."

Su Xing then said: "Send them all to the Ministry of Justice, let the Minister of Justice thoroughly investigate, it is imperative to find out who exactly poisoned the Princess and the Prince Consort."

All twelve people, including Mrs. Cao, Manhe, and Manjuan, were sent to the Ministry of Justice, unable to escape blame.

As soon as Mrs. Cao and the others were taken away, Tao Chengyin couldn’t bear it any longer and collapsed just like that.

"Father!" Taoming Ye hurriedly supported Tao Chengyin.

Tao Chengyin held his head, his eyes instantly reddening, and said tearfully: "If it really was your stepmother, Mingye... it’s your father’s fault, it’s your father’s..."

Taoming Ye comforted him: "The trial hasn’t been conducted yet, it might not be Mother who did it."

"How can you still call her Mother!" Tao Chengyin was both angry and anxious, his voice choked. "The poison was found in her room, it’s very likely she did it. You’re such a kind-hearted child, always overlooking things, but now, she’s out to get you!"

Taoming Ye and Su Xing hadn’t expected Mrs. Cao to leave the poison just like that in her room. What happened to Mrs. Cao today was indeed fate; even the heavens couldn’t stand to see her living well.

Although Taoming Ye was pleased inside, he continued to comfort on the surface: "Father, don’t overthink it, this matter hasn’t been clarified, it’s better not to be so arbitrary."

Tao Chengyin said no more but was so overwhelmed that he couldn’t even stand properly, and his head hurt too.

Taoming Ye quickly said: "Ru Song, quickly take Master back to his room to rest!"

"Yes, Prince Consort!" Ru Song promptly assisted Tao Chengyin away.

Tao Mingsheng, Tao Mingxiang, Tao Mingqing, Tao Mingfang, Aunt Feng, Aunt Zhu, and Aunt Fang all came to see, and were particularly shocked when they saw Mrs. Cao being taken away. They knew Mrs. Cao appeared to be kind-hearted on the surface, but was not at all, yet they never thought Mrs. Cao would poison Su Xing and Taoming Ye.

"Princess, this..." Tao Mingsheng and the others didn’t know what to say.

Su Xing said: "You are aware of my current status. Now that the residence is sealed, if the stepmother isn’t the poisoner, then the real poisoner is likely still in the residence, meaning anyone here could be a suspect."

Tao Mingsheng and the others immediately panicked and knelt down hurriedly: "It wasn’t us, we didn’t poison anyone..."

"I’m not saying you poisoned anyone, I’m saying everyone in this house is a suspect, get up quickly." Su Xing hurriedly helped them up. "But let me be clear, if this matter does turn out to be related to you, then, at that time, don’t blame me for being merciless."

Tao Mingsheng and the others immediately said: "It really has nothing to do with us!"

Su Xing said: "The innocent will prove themselves, if you are blameless, then there’s nothing to worry about. I am the daughter-in-law of this family, and if Mrs. Cao did indeed plot against me and my husband, I will, as before, not implicate anyone else."
