Chapter 39: A Letter of Resignation
Shen Lianyue was already pale with fright, and pulled the corner of Su Ruotong's skirt for help.
It's a pity that Su Ruotong can't protect herself at the moment, how dare she open her mouth to intercede for Shen Lianyue.
"Mrs. Su premeditated and designed to frame the princess, and her heart can be punished. Such a poisonous woman, Lord Su might as well take a letter of resignation and drive her out of the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”
Mu Zihan said expressionlessly, as if his words were orders.
"The prince spares his life! The women knew that they were wrong, and the women no longer dared to say that the princess was not, and begged the prince to let the women go. ”
Shen Lianyue cried and pleaded, but the others present did not dare to speak for Shen Lianyue.
Su Ruoxi didn't know how much power Mu Zihan had, but she could see that these people present were very jealous of Mu Zihan.
Regarding Shen Lianyue's plea for mercy, Mu Zihan was indifferent. For him, such an approach is already mercy.
Shen Lianyue was so red from crying that she crawled to Su Yao's feet and cried.
"Master, although the concubine is at fault, she has never done anything to be sorry for the master. I also hope that the old man will remember the old love and don't drive the concubine away. ”
"I'm not afraid of being struck by lightning when I say this, I'm afraid I can't count the things you've done that I'm sorry for my father, right?"
As soon as she heard Shen Lianyue's words that went against her will, Su Ruoxi refuted unceremoniously.
Which of the sins she has suffered over the years is not due to Shen Lianyue?
Even her mother's death, she suspected that it was related to Shen Lianyue!
Mu Zihan ordered someone to bring the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, Su Yao looked embarrassed, and his hand holding the brush was trembling slightly.
Su Ruoxi knew that Su Yao didn't want to take a break from Shen Lianyue.
If he had to write a letter of resignation for this kind of thing, then Shen Lianyue's similar mistake could be bound into a book.
"Third prince, this may not be too strict, right? Besides, Master Su is already old, and he has no one to accompany him, and he doesn't even have someone who can take care of him when he is sick. Why did the third prince insist on breaking up other people's homes? ”
Just as Su Yao was writing crookedly on the paper, Mu Ziran, who had been silent, finally opened his mouth and tried to intercede.
Mu Zihan raised his eyes and glanced at Mu Ziran, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, as if to express his displeasure.
"This doesn't have to worry about the prince, tomorrow is Lord Su's birthday, and this king just chose two beauties for Lord Su, and he will definitely be able to serve Lord Su comfortably."
As soon as Mu Zihan's words fell, two young women dressed very enchantingly were brought over.
Regarding Mu Zihan's preparation, Su Ruoxi didn't know at all.
Su Ruoxi looked at the two women thoughtfully, although they were enchanting, they were not as indulgent as the dusty women.
She could sense a sense of mission in them, and even though the two of them had done a good job of concealing it, they couldn't hide it from her eyes.
It's a keen instinct as an agent, and sometimes you can sell your body in order to complete your mission.
Thinking of this, Su Ruoxi began to doubt Mu Zihan's intentions.
He had already made such preparations, and it seemed that he wanted to install his own people by Su Yao's side.
Kicking away Shen Lianyue's stumbling block may be more beneficial to him.
Su Ruoxi's eyes were gloomy, and her mind was no longer as easy and simple as simply watching a good show.
Su Yao's Hugh was written very slowly, and it took a full quarter of an hour to write a few hundred words.
Shen Lianyue, who got the letter of resignation, fainted directly from crying, and Su Ruotong was also so angry that she helped her back to the room.
When the matter was settled, the crowd dispersed.
Hou Qingyun was about to leave, but was left behind by Su Yao on the grounds of celebrating his birthday.
Mu Zihan didn't know where to go with Ling Feng, he didn't say a word when he left, and Su Ruoxi didn't want to know, so he took Wan'er back to his room.
As soon as she returned to the room, Wan'er patted her chest and chattered with palpitations.
"Miss, it was so scary just now, Wan'er didn't even dare to take a breath. The prince is so domineering, he drove Aunt Shen out of the Prime Minister's Mansion in a sentence or two, which is really relieving! ”
Shen Lianyue was driven away, and Wan'er was naturally very happy.
Su Ruoxi didn't talk, thinking that Wan'er was still too young, and her thoughts were simpler.
How could she not see that Su Yi's poisoning this time was actually a trick.
It's just that she didn't expect that Mu Zihan actually took advantage of her.
"Miss, Aunt Shen will not be in the Prime Minister's Mansion in the future, and Miss will not have to worry about it when she comes back. If it weren't for the wisdom of the prince this time, Miss would definitely be framed by Aunt Shen again. ”
"But then again, Aunt Shen is really ruthless. In order to poison the young lady, he didn't even care about the comfort of the little boy. Alas! The human heart is really hard to understand! Wan'er shook her head and sighed.
Su Ruoxi felt tired, so she said, "Wan'er, you step back first, I want to rest for a while." ”
This time, because of Su Yi's poisoning, the festive atmosphere in the entire mansion became a little depressing, and even made people unhappy.
Wan'er nodded and said with a smile: "Miss rest in peace first, and Wan'er will bring food to Miss in a while." ”
After Wan'er left, Su Ruoxi lay on the bed and recalled the events of the day.
The matter of Su Yi's poisoning seems to have been revealed, but there are too many doubts and flaws in it.
First, the spider does not survive in a place like the capital.
Therefore, someone must have deliberately placed the spider near the gazebo in the garden.
The spider cordyceps in the incense burner must have been put by the one who put the spiders.
Second, if Su Yi was directly hit by the venom of the spider, then he would definitely die.
However, although Su Yi was deeply poisoned, he did not die immediately, she guessed that there must be something wrong with the peach blossom cake, perhaps it had already been mixed with a certain amount of medicine.
It's just that Shen Lianyue said that the peach blossom cake was given by the Queen Mother, who can do tricks in the peach blossom cake in advance?
Third, if the poison was really caused by Shen Lianyue, then the person Shen Lianyue wanted to harm must be her, and Shen Lianyue would know in advance that there would be a problem with the peach blossom cake, and she would not watch Su Yi eat the peach blossom cake.
Unless, Shen Lianyue really wanted to use Su Yi's life to frame her, but she had already married into the Three Princes' Mansion, and Shen Lianyue really didn't have that need.
Fourth, that Hou Qingyun is a little strange.
Since Hou Qingyun can analyze the cause of Su Yi's poisoning, he must know the environment and conditions in which the spider lives.
But when he was in the garden just now, he didn't say anything, and let Mu Zihan convict Shen Lianyue.
Based on these doubts, Su Ruoxi knew that this matter was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
She even suspected that this incident might have been designed by Mu Zihan, and its purpose was to eradicate Shen Lianyue.
Originally, Mu Zihan's plan could be perfect, but the two beauties that Mu Zihan prepared for Su Yao made her suspicious.
