The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs

Minister Qian frowned as he listened to Shen Qinglan's words. Although he did not answer, he actually believed it halfway in his heart.

Indeed, if the Shangshu Madam really wanted to harm Aunt Liu, there was no need to use her own things...

Immediately, Minister Qian looked at the maid named Zhi'er and said angrily:

"Why do you want to harm Aunt Liu?"

Zhi'er was tied up and was already very scared. It was clearly agreed that this matter would not be traced back to her.

But Zhi'er didn't dare to think about it anymore. Upon hearing this, she immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed and cried:

"My Lord, my Lord, please see clearly! Wuwuwu, how dare Zhier harm Madam Liu's offspring? I did receive the bird's nest from Sister Liulu. Zhier really didn't know that drugs were put in it..."

"I don't know?"

Tao Hong interrupted the call at the right time and threw a pack of medicine in front of her.

"This is when I found out that this matter was related to Zhi'er. When I went to look for her, I saw her with my own eyes holding the peach kernels and musk, preparing to bury and destroy them! Fortunately, I stopped her in time!"

"Your Excellency can ask the court doctor to check. These peach kernels and musk appear to have been used before. I think they were put into the bowl of bird's nest that Madam Liu drank."

When Zhi'er heard this, his face turned pale, and he immediately knelt down and kowtowed to argue:

"It's not me, it's really not me, Master. Someone must have framed me! Master..."

Tao Hong knelt on the ground, straightened her back and said:

"Your Excellency, please understand. Not only did my servants see Zhi'er trying to destroy the evidence, but the people around Princess Zhan also saw it!"

Shuwen came back at some point and was standing behind Shen Qinglan.

Shen Qinglan looked back at Shuwen and said slowly:

"Say what you see, don't talk nonsense."

Upon hearing this, Shu Wen immediately stepped forward, holding his sword, and bowed to Minister Qian, saying:

"When our princess ordered me to look for our second young master, I happened to see Taohong stopping Zhier who was trying to destroy the evidence."

Shuwen's words actually saved the face of both parties.

They, the Zhan Wang Mansion, did not deliberately interfere in your family affairs. They just happened to see this incident when they went to look for Huo Junyu, so they acted as witnesses.

However, whether it was really to find Huo Junyu is another matter.

But obviously no one would raise any questions at this time.

But no matter what, Shuwen's answer completely confirmed Zhier's guilt!

The Shangshu's wife felt relieved and looked at Shangshu Qian. Shangshu Qian felt his face burning when being looked at by the Shangshu's wife!

He was so angry that he took a deep breath, stood up and walked to Zhi'er, kicked Zhi'er to the ground, and said angrily:

"What a wicked slave! How dare he murder his master! Come! Drag this wicked slave out and beat him to death!"

Zhier looked up at Minister Qian in shock, trembling with fear, and said quickly:

"Sir, please spare my life. This is really not my fault! Madam Liu, please save me! Madam Liu, please save me!"

The Shangshu's wife saw this and called out to Shangshu Qian in time, sneering and saying:

"Wait a minute! My Lord, are you going to punish her right now? Why did Zhi'er drug Aunt Liu when she was fine? Is there really no one behind her?"

Minister Qian turned around and looked at his wife, then pinched his temples with a headache.

At this point, he no longer wanted to pursue the matter any further. In any case, this matter was not good for the reputation of the Shangshu Mansion!

Besides, Shen Qinglan is still here!

He had been made a laughing stock by an outsider for so long. The matter had already been settled, so why bother making a fuss? If it got out, how would he put his face in the future?

Thinking of this, Minister Qian took a deep breath, glanced at Shen Qinglan, then stepped forward and took the hand of the Minister's wife, and apologized in a gentle voice:

"Alright, Madam, I misunderstood you just now. I was just anxious and lost my sense of proportion. Now that we have caught the perpetrator red-handed, we should punish this cunning slave..."

Aunt Liu was also crying and wiping her tears at the side.

"I'm sorry, sister. I misunderstood you. I didn't expect that Zhi'er could be so vicious... "

Zhier looked at Aunt Liu in shock and shouted anxiously:

"Madam Liu! I didn't! It was clearly..."

Before Zhi'er could finish her words, Qiuyue, Aunt Liu's personal maid, rushed up and slapped Zhi'er in the face left and right.

The crisp sound of "pa|pa|pa" was accompanied by Qiuyue's angry curse:

"You are so good! Aunt Liu treated you so well, but you actually wanted to kill her! Don't you just hate Aunt Liu for not giving you the opportunity to serve you?"

"You little bitch, you actually harbored resentment and did such a vicious thing!"

Qiuyue cursed angrily, but when no one knew, she secretly pinched Zhi'er's arm and whispered:

"Do you want your parents to be buried with you?"

When Zhi'er heard this, her face turned pale, and she completely collapsed. She fell to the ground, muttering to herself:

"It is this slave who deserves to die..."

Minister Qian frowned and looked at Aunt Liu and asked:

"What does this mean?"

Upon hearing this, Aunt Liu wiped her tears with a sad face, glanced at the Shangshu's wife, and looked as if she didn't dare to say anything.

However, Qiuyue quickly opened her mouth to help Aunt Liu explain:

"Master, it's because Madam Liu is pregnant and can't serve you. That Zhi'er wants to help serve you, so as to show Madam Liu's favor."

"But Aunt Liu felt guilty for having shared the Madam's favor. How could she find someone else to continue sharing the Madam's favor? So she rejected Zhi'er, but she didn't expect that Zhi'er would hate her for it..."

"Bang" sound!

Minister Qian slammed the table angrily and said:

"Bitch! Bitch! You don't deserve to die! Drag her away!"

Zhi'er did not resist this time. She seemed to have completely lost her life and allowed the servants to drag her away.

After seeing Zhi'er being dragged away, Minister Qian looked at his wife again. He was about to say something, but was interrupted by her:

"My Lord, you should comfort your concubine. I have distinguished guests to entertain."

The Shangshu's wife interrupted what Shangshu Qian wanted to say with a cold face, then turned around and changed her expression, pulling Shen Qinglan, and said with a smile:

"Sister, let's go."

Shen Qinglan nodded slightly to Minister Qian, then left with the Minister's wife.

As soon as Shen Qinglan and the Minister's wife left, Qian Duoduo hurried over.

The servants outside wanted to stop them, but were blocked by Huo Junyu who was following Qian Duoduo.

Qian Duoduo rushed into the room and saw Shangshu Qian still sitting beside Aunt Liu to comfort her. He was immediately furious and rushed over, slamming his head against Aunt Liu.

With a "bang", Aunt Liu was knocked to the bed, her face turning pale with pain.

Minister Qian reacted and quickly pulled back Qian Duoduo who was trying to hit him again, saying angrily:

"Rebellious son! What are you doing? You are totally disrespectful to your elders!"

Qian Duoduo pushed Minister Qian away, pointed at Minister Qian and Aunt Liu and said angrily:

"What do you mean by respectable elder? A concubine is nothing but a servant! I am the master of the Shangshu Mansion, so what if I hit her?"

"If she bullies my mother again, I will not only beat her up, but I will also sell her to the lowest-class brothel!"

Minister Qian was so angry that his eyes widened, his body trembling as he pointed at Qian Duoduo and said, "You you..."

"Me, me, me? What do you mean by me? Qian Hongwen, I'm warning you! You don't care about my mother, but I do!"

"If you dare to let my mother suffer injustice again, I will go to my grandfather to complain tomorrow! Let my mother divorce you! Then find a new husband for my mother and a new father for me! Humph!"

Qian Duoduo said this in a domineering manner and turned away.

Huo Junyu, who was following Qian Duoduo, looked at Qian Shangshu who was about to faint from anger, and said with a twitch of his lips:

"Master Shangshu, please take care of yourself. Maybe you can really see Qian Duoduo find you a new father..."
