Su Yao had a meaningful sneer on her face, and she didn't try to hide it. At this point, there was really no need to be so useless and false. She clapped her hands and shouted to the outside, "Ruan Xiaojiu!"
Ruan Xiaojiu answered loudly outside the yard, and immediately came in aggressively with several guards. He was carrying a person on his shoulders and walked into the house with a stomping sound. Under the gazes of the ladies, he threw the person on his shoulders to the ground with a bang without any hesitation.
Zhen
It was just like throwing a sack.
In just this moment, everyone heard a muffled groan.
Then, Mrs. Ji stared at the old woman thrown on the ground and looked at Su Yao with some doubt. She hesitated for a while and said softly, "County Lady, this is a servant of our family."
Those who were assigned to serve the county lady, even if they were just rough tasks, were at least efficient in their work. Mrs. Ji had some impression of her.
Su Yao chuckled, raised his eyebrows and nodded: "Yes, I know, this mother is from your house."
She leaned over to look at Mother Cao, sighed, and then raised her voice again: "Mother Cao, I think Madam Yang seems to be very worried about her daughter. Please tell her why."
It was obvious that there was something else behind his words, and everyone went to see Mother Cao.
Mother Cao collapsed on the ground. Ruan Xiaojiu had almost broken all her bones. I don't know what method they used, but they removed her jaw and then put it back together. Then they did it to her ankles and wrists. She was just a servant. How could she have seen such a scene and been subjected to such punishment? She screamed in pain on the spot, and dared not hide anything. She had already confessed everything.
Now when she heard Su Yao talking, she trembled and whimpered. Thinking of that torture, she didn't dare to think about it anymore. She almost shouted out in a hurry: "It's okay, it's okay. This is the aphrodisiac that Madam Yang gave me. It was originally used to stun the county lady. She said, she said that this aphrodisiac will not harm the body. At most, it will make you have a headache and vomit when you wake up. It will be fine after a while!"
Everyone was suddenly in an uproar.
Yang Qingyu was vomiting all over the place, and she found herself in a strange place she didn't recognize. She was so scared that she kept screaming and crying. Madam Yang was held tightly by her and couldn't move for a while.
Mrs. Liao immediately grasped the key point of the words. She looked at Mother Cao and asked her sternly: "What did you say? Who gave you the incense? What do you want you to do?"
It would be fine if she didn't know, but now Su Yao has made the matter so clear in front of so many people, pointing the finger at Madam Yang. If she continues to pretend not to know, then let alone other things, with Su Rong coming back, even she cannot stay out of it - she is the head of all the imperial edicts in Kunming.
It was outrageous that such a thing happened right under her nose. If she still shirked her responsibility and reported it to the court, she would be embarrassing herself.
Mrs. Liao really hated Mrs. Yang for being so ignorant. Xiao Heng and the others had only been gone for one night, but she had made such a big fuss.
Yunnan may have been a territory beyond the control of the imperial court in the past, but it is no longer the case. She actually cannot recognize the situation clearly. She is as stupid as a pig!
Madam Liao spoke harshly, and Mother Cao was so frightened that she was trembling. She had no other choice but to lie on the ground, trembling and crying, "Yes, it was Madam Yang who gave me the aphrodisiac! Madam Yang said that she wanted to help the county lady and our young master get together, so she gave me a large sum of money. I... I was bewitched and agreed! Madam Yang has bribed a lot of people, including the people in the county lady's courtyard and several people in the young master's courtyard. She has also found a way to transfer the young master's long-term servant away..."
Everyone looked at Madam Yang in amazement. They really couldn't imagine that Madam Yang could be so cruel.
To put it bluntly, this is no different from murder and arson. If she is really framed, wouldn't it ruin the girl's life
Mrs. Liao was also breathing rapidly. After holding back her anger for a while, she continued to ask coldly, "What happened next? Why is Miss Yang San in Young Master Ji's room now?"
Mrs. Yang was also very upset at this time.
She was indeed the one who did it, but in her imagination, this matter should have been done smoothly. She didn't expect it to turn out like this. Although she felt that she did nothing wrong, when this matter became known to everyone and was discussed openly, she knew that she was in the wrong.
Holding Miss Yang San in her arms, Mrs. Yang pursed her lips, then raised her eyes and glanced at everyone.
The looks those ladies gave her were all very complicated and strange, but basically they were full of disapproval, blame and disdain.
Madam Yang was filled with resentment.
Mother Cao quickly glanced at them, then she laid on the ground, closed her eyes, and mustered up the courage to say, "I don't know why Miss San was worried about me using the aphrodisiac on the county lady in the middle of the night, so she followed me here... I don't know what happened afterwards."
In fact, it’s not that she is unclear. Mother Cao was vague, clenched her fists and didn’t want to say anything more.
Mrs. Liao looked at Su Yao deeply.
Obviously, Miss Yang San's appearance here was definitely related to Su Yao, but it was impossible for her to hold Su Yao responsible now.
On the contrary, Madam Liao coldly ordered: "Come here, take Madam Yang and Miss Yang San away and keep them under strict supervision! All matters will be decided when His Highness and the others come back!"
During this period of time, she only needed to make sure that the Yang mother and daughter did not become depressed and hang themselves.
The more she thought about it, the more upset she became.
Mrs. Ji hated Mrs. Yang to the core at this point. No mother could tolerate someone plotting against her own son, not to mention the use of aphrodisiac incense. Her son was already injured and had not yet recovered. Mrs. Yang was really crazy, framing someone like this without caring about the consequences.
Now no one wanted to stay and watch the fun. When they heard what Mrs. Liao said, the other ladies ran away faster than anyone else.
Mrs. Fang also wanted to leave, but was stopped by Mrs. Liao.
Madam Liao stared at her solemnly, raised her eyebrows and said, "Madam Fang, you seemed to be shouting quite happily just now. I'm afraid that Madam Yang can't do this alone. Madam Fang should stay as well. When His Highness and the others come back, we will know what is going on."
Madam Fang was terrified and struggled to get away: "Madam, how can you convict someone without any evidence?! I just like to watch the fun, is watching the fun also a crime? I don't accept it!"
Mrs. Liao doesn't care whether you obey or not.
