The person on the bed seemed to have been told what was really going on, and a hint of fear flashed across his eyes.

Wen Jing suddenly stepped forward and grabbed her hand, "Mother, did he threaten you with something?" Wen Jing looked at his extremely weak mother. He had seen his mother being beaten more than once since he was a child, and he had also tried to persuade her to resist.

Unfortunately, it was of no use. He had resisted in order to break free from the control of the Zhu family, and finally succeeded in leaving this home that was not a home three years ago.

He had thought about giving up this weak mother countless times, but he just couldn't bear to do it.

Song Lanyue looked at Mrs. Zhu's expression and knew that she was still unwilling to say it.

What worries a mother the most is her own son, so did the Zhu family threaten her with the fourth senior brother?

"Mrs. Zhu, did they threaten you with Fourth Senior Brother?" Song Lanyue asked tentatively.

The moment Mrs. Zhu heard these words, her expression changed instantly.

This reaction undoubtedly confirmed Song Lanyue's words. Wen Jing was also puzzled. How could the Zhu family still use him to control their mother?

"Yunqing, it's your mother who has let you down..." Mrs. Zhu pounded her chest, her eyes full of regret.

"Cough cough cough..."

The excitement made her cough continuously.

"Back then, your father married me because of my family background. Later, the Zhu family grew bigger and bigger, and its power had long surpassed that of the Chen family. He also gradually revealed his true nature. Whenever I went out or talked to a man for a few more words, he would beat and scold me."

"I originally wanted to divorce him, but I didn't expect that I would be pregnant with you two brothers at this time, so I had to endure it."

"But this beast planted a poisonous insect in my body. This poisonous insect cannot be removed but can only be transferred. After I gave birth to you two brothers, the poisonous insect entered your body."

"He said that as long as I leave the Zhu family, he will immediately control the Gu worm to kill you."

Mrs. Zhu was sobbing by the end of her speech.

Song Lanyue never expected things to turn out like this, so in the original book, the fourth senior brother discovered that his father had planted a poisonous insect in him, so he killed the Zhu family.

What a shame, this bastard!

After hearing this, Zhu Yunqing wanted to kill his so-called father immediately. He even used poisonous insects to control him!

When Song Lanyue turned around, she saw Zhu Yunqing filled with murderous aura, and he seemed to be going insane.

"Fourth Senior Brother, Fourth Senior Brother."

She tugged at the corner of Zhu Yunqing's clothes, trying to awaken his mind.

Mrs. Zhu was a little panicked when she saw Zhu Yunqing like this, "Yunqing, Yunqing, don't scare me!"

Song Lanyue suddenly drew out the Xiaoyao Sword, "Fourth Senior Brother, I will kill him for you."

As long as the person who put the poison in her body dies, the poison can be removed. She is not a member of the Zhu family, so no one will suspect her if she can deal with Zhu Xinyuan quietly.

When Zhu Yunqing heard this, he suddenly regained his senses and stopped Song Lanyue.

"No, Junior Sister, you are no match for Zhu Lin."

"I still have to do it." Zhu Yunqing said cruelly.

At this moment, there was not a single father-son relationship in his heart. Besides, he had never considered himself as his own son. He really tried hard to control the person beside him.

If the truth ever came to light, at most his reputation would be ruined, but he couldn't let his junior sister take the risk for him.

If you assassinate the head of the Zhu family, the Zhu family will definitely send people to hunt you down.

A plan came to Song Lanyue's mind, "If that's the case, then I have a good idea."

Since we can't do anything, then -

She leaned close to Zhu Yunqing's ear and told him the plan.

"I just have to ask Fourth Senior Brother to stay at the Zhu family for a while. But this time can be used to treat Madam Zhu. Others can't do it, but I believe Fourth Senior Brother will definitely have a way."

"Then why are you staying in Zhu Mansion, little apprentice sister?"

"Fourth Senior Brother, then you underestimate me."

Song Lanyue made a hand gesture and suddenly transformed herself into an inconspicuous maid serving Madam Zhu.

"Fourth Senior Brother." Song Lanyue's voice turned into that of a maid, making it impossible to tell what was going on.

Now the use of the Huanhua hairpin makes Song Lanyue unable to wear men's clothing freely, but she has already mastered women's clothing.

Even Mrs. Zhu couldn't see any clues. Although Xia Zhi had not been in the Zhu Mansion for long, she had been serving her and she knew this girl well.

"What about the real Xia Zhi? What did Miss Song do to her?" Madam Zhu treated her servants very well, fearing that something might have happened to Xia Zhi.

Song Lanyue gave Madam Zhu a soothing look and smiled, "She's fine. I've handed her over to my senior sister. I'll send her back when I'm done."

"Thank you." Mrs. Zhu finally felt relieved.

Zhu Yunqing couldn't help but shook his head and tapped Song Lanyue's head, "Okay, so you've already thought of a solution."

She covered her head, "I plan to do this again as a last resort."

The main reason is that at the beginning she really didn't expect Zhu Xinyuan to be such a scumbag. Such a person deserves to be killed!

The next day, Song Lanyue went to the kitchen under the pretext of preparing lunch.

As soon as Song Lanyue entered the kitchen, she started looking for food for Zhu Xinyuan and others. Fourth senior brother said that Zhu Xinyuan's meals were all served in golden marigolds, which were easy to find.

Before, Madam Zhu and Zhu Xinyuan always ate together, but since she had been bedridden for some time, Madam Zhu's meals were all medicinal meals prepared separately, and then brought to the kitchen by the servants every day.

"Hey, stop right there."

Suddenly a voice called Song Lanyue. Song Lanyue turned around calmly and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Why have I never seen you before?" The kitchen manager looked at Song Lanyue's unfamiliar face.

"I'm here to serve Madam's meal. Madam's health has been getting worse recently. Sister Lichun and Nanny Chen are both taking care of Madam and can't get away, so they asked this servant to serve her the meal."

"What? Do you have any objections?"

When the steward heard her say this, his attitude immediately changed, "How dare I? Come with me, young lady."

In the Zhu Mansion, everyone knew that Zhu Xinyuan loved his wife the most. He had not taken a concubine for many years. As a result, the servants around Madam Zhu were treated much better than other servants.

Naturally, the servants serving Madam Zhu were much more arrogant.

When passing by Zhu Xinyuan's meal, Song Lanyue took action without anyone noticing.

"The young master has been accompanying the lady for meals these days. When I come to serve meals next time, remember to prepare food for the young master." Song Lanyue arranged it with ease.

Finally, the kitchen manager respectfully sent her away. Just as Song Lanyue was on her way back from the kitchen, she happened to meet Zhu Yunqi who was also heading towards Madam Zhu's yard.

"Eldest son."

Song Lanyue performed a standard etiquette, leaving no room for clues.

Zhu Yunqi didn't even look at her and walked straight past her.
