"Why are you so nervous, sister? Look at your forehead, you're sweating."

Jiang Wanyue chuckled.

People who practice martial arts are always alert. As early as when she was in the pavilion, she knew that Jiang Wei had bad intentions, so she pretended to be unprepared when Jiang Wei tried to push her into the lake. She thought that the fence must have been tampered with in advance, so it broke like rotten wood at the touch of a finger.

Jiang Wei subconsciously wiped the sweat off her face. In the eyes of everyone, this scene was a sign of guilty conscience.

Jiang Cheng frowned. Jiang Wanyue was obviously setting a trap for Jiang Wei to fall into, but Jiang Wei fell into it without even realizing it. But what really made him angry was that Jiang Wei was really involved in this matter!

Madam Wang and her son looked at Jiang Wei with strange expressions. They had seen what had just happened with their own eyes.

Jiang Wei seemed to be aware of the gazes from all sides. Her raised hand froze in the air. It took her a long time to realize what she had done. She was panicked for a while, but then she calmed herself down.

Without evidence, Jiang Wanyue cannot prove that she did it.

Thinking of this, Jiang Wei unconsciously sat up straight and looked up at Jiang Wanyue: "Sister, please don't frame me. I have already married into the Wang family. How can I come to my house?"

"Really? Then what's the matter with this person?"

Xie Jingce's cold voice sounded, and then he walked in from outside, with a middle-aged man dragged behind him.

Everyone was shocked. Madam Wang and her son stood there in a daze. They never expected that the Regent would be attracted.

Jiang Cheng naturally knew Xie Jingce, but he was still surprised by Xie Jingce's arrival. Moreover, the person behind him... why did he look so familiar?

When Jiang Wei saw the person Xie Jingce brought with him, her face changed drastically.

Jiang Wanyue was the calmest person in the room. However, she was a little surprised when she saw Xie Jingce and Manager Lin appear at the same time.

She clearly sent Chunhe to inform Feiqin and control Manager Lin, and she asked Bujing to invite Xie Jingce.

Chunhe and Bujing did not come with them, otherwise everyone would think that she sent someone to invite them.

Maybe the two groups met halfway, Jiang Wanyue thought.

But it was the same even if Xie Jingce brought it here. On the contrary, it was even more intimidating. Jiang Wanyue concealed her expression.

Everyone bowed to Xie Jingce, and Xie Jingce responded indifferently.

Jiang Cheng stood in front of Xie Jingce and looked at the man for a long time before recognizing him. He was so shocked that his eyes widened, and he looked confused: "This... Isn't this the chief steward Lin from my uncle's house? Why is he following behind the prince?"

The Regent has arrived. Jiang Cheng wiped his sweat silently, feeling that things are becoming more and more complicated. His mind was spinning rapidly, and he felt like he had missed something, but could never catch it.

"Oh, this is the butler of your house..." Xie Jingce said in a light and meaningful tone, "My people saw him coming in and out of the Wang family these days, and thought he was the butler of the Wang family!"

Manager Lin was being held in someone's hand and was trembling with fear.

Jiang Cheng's face became more and more gloomy.

Going in and out of the Wang family?

Jiang Cheng secretly glanced at Jiang Wei, and seeing the horrified expression on her face, he suddenly understood something and his face changed.

Manager Lin was in tears. He didn't know how the Regent had targeted him and how the Regent had caught hold of him.

"What's going on?" Jiang Cheng's face was gloomy.

When Madam Wang and her son saw the Regent coming, they dared not make a fuss anymore.

Xie Jingce signaled, and the guards behind him picked up Manager Lin and threw him in front of Jiang Cheng.

Manager Lin knelt on the ground, his body trembling and sweating.

"Manager Lin," Xie Jingce said casually, looking at him coldly, "You'd better tell me what you did as soon as possible. If your actions hurt my future princess and I find out, you'd better be careful."

Xie Jingce's tone was calm, but the threat in his words remained undiminished.

Manager Lin had his back to Xie Jingce and could not see Xie Jingce's expression, but he only felt a chill down his spine, as if he was going to be skinned alive.

Manager Lin had a sad face. If he had known that Jiang Wanyue was engaged to the Regent, he would not have been greedy for the money.

After being punished by Jiang Wanyue last time, Chief Steward Lin lost his position as Chief Steward and held a grudge in his heart. After more than a month of recuperation, he was completely healed. During this period of recuperation, he was cut off from the news and did not know that earth-shaking changes had taken place in the palace, let alone the news that the emperor had granted marriage to the regent and Jiang Wanyue.

Jiang Wanyue looked at Manager Lin coldly. As expected, the information Feiqin brought back was correct. It seemed that this person could not stay in the mansion.

Jiang Wei clenched her handkerchief tightly, her whole body shaking with nervousness. If Manager Lin revealed their conspiracy, then it would be the end of her.

At this moment, she really wanted to stop Manager Lin, but she was afraid of the Regent's majesty.

That's the Regent...

Xie Jingce was just a young man, and at a young age he was not only handsome but also extremely powerful. He was the ideal husband in the hearts of many noble ladies in the capital.

But he wants to marry Jiang Wanyue.

The look Jiang Wei gave Jiang Wanyue seemed to be poisoned, filled with jealousy, resentment... everything.

"I, I'll tell you," Manager Lin closed his eyes. Between money and life, life is more important. "Yes, Madam Wang gave me some silver and asked me to secretly replace the railings of the pavilion in the middle of the lake with rotten wood in the mansion..."

After these words were spoken, there was silence for a few seconds, and everyone knew who "Mrs. Wang Shao" was referring to.

At this moment, they all looked at Jiang Wei.

Jiang Wanyue watched coldly without saying a word. Things had come to this point and there was no point in her arguing any further as the result would be the same anyway.

Finally, it was Wang Hongyi who broke the silence. He turned around and looked at Jiang Wei in a daze: "So it was you... who killed the child? And then you put the blame on Jiang Wanyue?"

Jiang Wei's expression completely changed. She shook her head helplessly, tears streaming down her face. She looked pale: "No, it's not me..."

Madam Wang recovered and looked at Manager Lin on the ground, then at Jiang Wei. She stepped forward and slapped Jiang Wei in the face: "Evil woman!"

Madam Wang naturally knew Manager Lin, who was from the Chen family. She had previously cooperated with the Chen family on many occasions, and she relied on Manager Lin to make connections. Now that it was Manager Lin who said this, she had to believe it.

"I was wondering why Manager Lin came to the Wang family to see you after you got married. It turns out that you planned all this!"

Madam Wang was extremely angry. She originally thought that Manager Lin came to her house to see Jiang Wei because Chen was worried about her daughter. She didn't expect that Jiang Wei had planned this behind her back!

"No, it's not like that..." Jiang Wei covered her face and shook her head continuously. Her hair began to loosen. She was no longer calm at all.

"Jiang Wei, you spent so much time planning today's events just to frame me, but have you ever thought about the fetus in your belly?" Jiang Wanyue said coldly.

She did not forget how this group of Wang family members had just made trouble about the fetus in Jiang Wei's belly.

Madam Wang and her son looked unhappy, thinking of what they had just said. They didn't expect that in the end, they would be the clown.

Jiang Wei's eyes were dodging. When she heard Jiang Wanyue's words, she screamed as if she had gone mad, her eyes bloodshot: "Jiang Wanyue, it was you who killed the baby in my belly! It was you!"
