My mother is good at both medicine and poison, and she is reborn to kill people

Huawuxuan, inside the house.

Liu was lying leisurely on the bench in the corridor.

The maid Fangqi was waiting beside her and asked in a low voice: "Aunt, don't you want to go and see the Prime Minister?"

Liu chuckled and said, "The Prime Minister is feeling bored right now. If I go over to him, he won't be free. Why bother myself? Wait until nightfall, when he will probably be almost done with his work. It will be the right time to go over then."

Fang Qi nodded repeatedly, "Auntie is absolutely right."

Liu picked up the fruits from the fruit bowl on the small table next to her and ate them. She said with amusement, "Zhu really thinks that the eldest lady is still the eldest lady as before and can be manipulated by others."

Fang Qi: "Yes, yesterday, when Auntie went to Lanyue Pavilion, she heard Nanny Xia say that the young lady was fine, so she knew that the young lady would definitely win this round."

Liu thought about it and said, "Now the rumors are putting Zhu on the fire. I should whisper in the prime minister's ear to make the fire burn more vigorously."

Fang Qi: "With your ability, it's not easy. Even if the outside matter is suppressed this time, the knot remains. It's not so easy to smooth it out easily."

Liu smiled and said, "The eldest lady will take care of those. What I need to do is to control the Prime Minister and prepare for tonight's events. The Prime Minister has been bored and tired all day, so of course I have to let him relax."

Fang Qi: "Yes, don't worry, Auntie, I will take care of it."

Liu closed her eyes and took a nap. She knew very well that the eldest lady was no longer the same as before. As long as she held on to the eldest lady's thigh and gave birth to a child, she would be able to surpass Zhu sooner or later, and she would have the final say in the prime minister's mansion and the rear house.

……

Prime Minister's Mansion, in the study.

The prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture, who arrived early in the morning, was about to leave, but because of the summons from the Prime Minister, he had to come again.

As the saying goes, a higher-ranking official can crush a person, not to mention that the one in front of him is the prime minister, the head of all officials who is deeply trusted by the emperor.

When Su Bingyan saw the man in front of him, he did not hesitate at all and said directly: "Regarding the death of the groom in my house, I need you to make a decision as quickly as possible and calm down the disturbance outside."

The Jingzhao prefect looked a little embarrassed, "Prime Minister, the rumors spreading outside are..."

Su Bingyan interrupted him and said in a deep voice, "Tell the public that it was the groom who had gambling debts and was chased and killed by the debt collectors. He almost implicated my eldest daughter in the Xiangfu. The incident happened suddenly last night and was caused by my wife's panic."

The prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture understood clearly what the Prime Minister meant. He wanted to put all the blame on the dead groom, and also let word spread in Jingzhao Prefecture that this situation occurred because the Prime Minister's wife was too worried about Miss Su's safety.

"Yes, Prime Minister, I understand. I will make arrangements after I return." Jingzhao Prefecture Yin thought for a moment and reminded, "Prime Minister, I need to remind you that the people of the capital may not believe it so easily..."

Su Bingyan: "What I want is for this matter to be over. There are countless trivial matters in the capital. When new things come out, this matter will naturally pass."

The Jingzhao prefect bowed and said, "Yes, I will close the case when I get back."

Su Bingyan: "Go ahead."

Jingzhao Prefecture Governor: "I will take my leave."

……

Over here, inside Fuxi Hall.

In the blink of an eye, it was lunch time.

Old Madam Su asked someone to prepare lunch and then asked someone to invite Su Bingyan over.

When Zhu saw the Prime Minister appear, she stood up and saluted.

Su Bingyan sat down there and said in a deep voice, "I have already given instructions to Jingzhao Prefecture. They will close the case soon. The groom's death was only because he owed gambling debts and was killed by the debt collectors. As for you, I will also let them spread the word. It's only because you care about us that you did this."

Zhu: "Thank you, Lord Prime Minister."

Su Bingyan: "I said the same thing again. Next, you should take good care of Xuan'er's marriage, as well as Huan'er and Prince Ning's marriage. Although the wedding date has not been set, you can also do something during this period. Take advantage of the situation and let the servants in the mansion spread the news that the relationship between you and Huan'er is not as rumored. As a stepmother, if you care about Huan'er's marriage, those rumors outside will stop."

Zhu: “Yes.”

Su Bingyan: "At this point, some things should just stop here. If..."

Upon seeing this, Madam Su immediately said, "Well, now that the matter has been settled, we just need to deal with it properly. Let's have our meal first."

When Su Bingyan saw his mother interrupting him, he naturally could keenly grasp that his mother must have been involved behind this matter.

It is undeniable that if Su Huan had really died in the previous drowning incident, he would not have cared much. This time, Su Huan died outside and did not cause any trouble, so he would not care either.

Just find a good reason to deal with the outside world.

But if, instead of solving the problem, the Prime Minister's Mansion lost face and rumors spread around the capital, that was something he absolutely did not want to see.

Moreover, he vaguely felt that Su Huan had changed a lot since she survived drowning, and sometimes even he could not see through her.

Zhu Shi noticed the old lady's eye signal to her, and immediately served the meal to the prime minister, "Prime Minister, please enjoy your meal."

Su Bingyan sighed deeply, picked up his chopsticks, and began to eat, but in the end he still pointed to Zhu and said, "Take care of yourself."

Zhu was slightly startled, and her hand, which was half hanging in the air, paused, and was not withdrawn until a long time later.

This lunch was not very satisfying.

Su Bingyan: "Mother, I still have official business to attend to, so I'll leave first."

When he left, he did not forget to say to Zhu, "You are the mistress of the Xiangfu. You should pay more attention to the affairs in the mansion and also control the situation outside the mansion."

Zhu: "Yes, Lord."

Wait until Su Bingyan leaves.

Old Madam Su glanced at Zhu. She really didn't expect that she had originally planned to plot against Su Huan, thinking that it was foolproof. After killing Su Huan, everything would go smoothly and all obstacles would be cleared.

Who would have thought that this obstacle, instead of being cleared away, would cause them countless troubles.

Now that Su Huan is alive, those things outside are only temporary. What we need to deal with later is the Shen family who has returned to Beijing. The Shen family will be more difficult to deal with than Su Huan.

Just then, Aunt Xu led someone in.

The man bowed and then reported: "Madam, I followed your instructions and I have found out the reason why."

Madam Su said coldly: "Speak."

The man said truthfully: "Madam, all the assassins that Hidden Killing Tower sent to assassinate the young lady have died. Not a single bone is left."
