After the marriage, the disabled war king was spoiled by me
Chapter 311 Taking the opportunity to rise to power
Du Yunsheng's eyes were sharp, and he shouted, "Let me ask again, was it you who poisoned my mother?"
Du Yuwei wanted to remain silent, but before long, she felt severe pain all over her body.
Du Yuwei's face twisted instantly, she clenched her teeth, trying to suppress the intense pain. A flash of panic flashed in her eyes, but she quickly forced herself to remain calm, forcing a bitter smile from the corner of her mouth.
"Sister Yunsheng, you misunderstood. How could I possibly do something to my aunt?" Du Yuwei's voice trembled slightly. She gently rubbed her aching shoulders, trying to hide her uneasiness.
Du Yunsheng looked at her coldly, his eyes revealing an unquestionable firmness: "Misunderstanding? Do you think I will believe you so easily?"
Du Yuwei's eyes were red, and this explanation seemed to be unable to impress Du Yunsheng.
She took a deep breath and tried to calm her voice. "Sister, I really didn't poison you. Believe me, I... I'm just a weak woman. How can I harm others?"
Du Yunsheng frowned, she recalled the tragic scene before her mother's death, and her doubts grew stronger. She said coldly: "If you are innocent, then where does this severe pain come from?"
Du Yuwei's expression turned pale instantly. She knew that Du Yunsheng had seen through the poison in her body. She gritted her teeth, held back her tears, and said in a trembling voice: "This...I accidentally ate poisonous herbs, and it has nothing to do with...my mother."
A trace of doubt flashed across Du Yunsheng's eyes, but she didn't completely believe Du Yuwei's explanation. She pondered for a moment and suddenly said, "If that's the case, then tell me why you accidentally ate the poisonous herbs?"
Du Yuwei's eyes flickered, she bit her lip, and finally made up her mind to tell the whole story.
"That day, I was taking a walk in the garden and saw a strange herb. Driven by curiosity, I picked some and tasted it. Unexpectedly, that herb... that herb was actually poisonous." Du Yuwei's voice became smaller and smaller. She lowered her head, not daring to look at Du Yunsheng again.
Du Yunsheng listened quietly, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.
Although Du Yuwei's explanation was a bit far-fetched, it was not completely impossible. She took a deep breath and said, "If that's the case, then you should rest well. If it's really as you said, I will find an antidote for you."
Du Yuwei raised her head, a trace of gratitude flashed in her eyes: "Sister, thank you. I know you have always cared about me."
Du Yunsheng nodded slightly, turned and left.
Du Yunsheng began to investigate everywhere. She consulted the doctors in the mansion and also asked her mother's maid. However, no one knew where the poison in her mother's body came from.
Just when Du Yunsheng was at a loss, she suddenly thought of someone - Du Yuwei's maid Xiao Cui. She remembered that Xiao Cui had sneaked into her mother's room. Could all this be related to her?
Du Yunsheng decided to interrogate Xiao Cui early tomorrow morning to see if she knew any clues.
The next morning, Du Yunsheng came to Du Yuwei's room and found Xiao Cui. She looked at Xiao Cui coldly and asked, "Tell me, why did you enter your mother's room?"
Xiao Cui's eyes flickered. She knew she had nowhere to escape. She gritted her teeth and finally told the truth: "It was... the eldest lady who asked me to go. She asked me to poison the lady's tea."
Du Yunsheng's heart suddenly tightened. She finally understood the truth. It turned out that Du Yuwei was behind all this. She looked at Xiao Cui coldly and said, "Go back and tell Du Yuwei that her days of harming people are over."
Xiao Cui nodded in horror, while Du Yunsheng, filled with anger, prepared to settle accounts with Du Yuwei. She wanted Du Yuwei to pay the price and seek justice for her mother's death.
Du Yunsheng walked quickly through the corridor of the general's mansion. Xiao Cui followed closely behind her, carefully reminding her: "Miss, calm down and don't act impulsively."
Walking into Du Yuwei's yard, Du Yunsheng glanced coldly at Du Yuwei who was admiring the flowers in the garden. Du Yuwei raised her head, a flash of panic flashed in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.
Du Yuwei chuckled and said, "Sister, what's wrong? You look so ugly, are you angry about mother's matter?"
Du Yunsheng stared at Du Yuwei and said in a cold tone: "Yuwei, stop pretending here. You are responsible for my mother's death!"
Du Yuwei's eyes narrowed, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised, as if she didn't care about Du Yunsheng's questioning: "Sister, what are you talking about? Our mother passed away, and we are equally sad. Why do you have to take your anger out on me?"
A trace of anger flashed in Du Yunsheng's eyes, and he approached Du Yuwei: "Turning your anger out on me? Do you dare to say that you didn't do anything behind my back? My mother's illness was clearly caused by you secretly poisoning her!"
Du Yuwei's face changed, but she soon regained her composure. She chuckled and said, "Sister, you are framing me. Mother is seriously ill, and everyone in the mansion knows about it. Why are you accusing me so wrongly?"
Du Yunsheng gritted his teeth, a trace of pain flashed in his eyes: "Yuwei, you still don't admit it? Ever since you entered the general's mansion, mother's health has been getting worse day by day. You are obviously jealous of mother's favor, so you want to kill her!"
Du Yuwei smiled slightly, with disdain in her eyes: "Sister, are you kidding? When have I ever been jealous of mother? I admit that I do not like her, but I would not kill her. You are deliberately looking for an excuse to deal with me."
Du Yunsheng was so angry that she was shaking all over. She stared at Du Yuwei closely: "Yuwei, you are so cruel! Today, I will make you pay the price!"
Du Yuwei's eyes flashed with panic, and she tried to stabilize the situation: "Sister, why are you doing this? We are sisters with deep feelings, why are you so heartless?"
Du Yunsheng sneered: "Deep love? Have you ever had a sisterly love for me? You just took a fancy to the power of my general's mansion and wanted to take the opportunity to get promoted!"
Du Yuwei's face darkened. She finally couldn't hold back her anger. "Du Yunsheng, stop talking nonsense! Although I don't like my mother, I won't kill her. You are deliberately looking for trouble and trying to sow discord between us sisters!"
The two of them had a fierce argument in the garden, which attracted the attention of everyone in the mansion. Soon, officials of all ranks in the general's mansion rushed to the scene, and seeing the two sisters at loggerheads, they dared not speak out.
Du Yunsheng stared at Du Yuwei coldly: "Yuwei, if you really feel innocent, then let the doctor in the mansion check your handkerchief to see if there is any poison left on it."
Du Yuwei's eyes froze. She didn't expect Du Yunsheng to have evidence. She gritted her teeth and sneered, "Sister, you are threatening me. Okay, I'll show you my handkerchief."
As she spoke, Du Yuwei took out a handkerchief from her sleeve and handed it to the maid beside her. The maid took the handkerchief and carefully handed it to the doctor in the mansion.
