Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 461

~ DON’T GET YOUR HANDS DIRTY ~ 

At the mention of Yi Bao Xuan, the stewards’ expression turned grave, “The owner of Yi Bao Xuan seems to have been hunted down by others, and he happened to be rescued by Ling Wang. In order to repay Ling Wang for his kindness, he obeyed Ling Wang’s assignment. Some time ago, he even gave him a few hundred thousand taels of silver, allowing Ling Wang to walk around smoothly during the New Year Festival to win over officials.”

“Yi Bao Xuan ….” Jin Wang narrowed his eyes slightly. “How can Yi Bao Xuan be comparable to Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo? There is nothing to fear as long as I control these two places. After some time, Imperial Aunt will acknowledge Su Qing and Mu Yunyao and prepare some generous gifts in advance.”

Mu Yunyao followed the Grand Princess Yi De to the princess’ mansion. When Mu Yunyao saw Su Qing’s troubled expression, she held her hand and consoled her, “Mother, are you alright?”

The Grand Princess Yi De waved her hand for some people to serve tea. “Qing’er, Yao’er, please wait for a moment. In a while, the news will arrive to report to you.”

“Grandmother, did you send someone to interrogate Su Li and Wang Shi?”

“Yes.” The Grand Princess Yi De nodded. “They are Qing’er’s adoptive parents. For this reason, I will spare their lives. If the two have no ill intentions, then in the future, they will live a prosperous and thriving life. If there are bad intentions, then I will be the one to be the villain.”

Su Qing remained silent.

The Grand Princess Yi De looked at her, sighing faintly, “Qing’er, I will have someone carefully interrogate your adoptive parents. If they don’t confess, they will definitely suffer. Do you think my actions are too cruel?”

Su Qing bit her lips and nodded slightly. “I feel that this is a bit cruel, but for Yao’er, even if I had to personally interrogate her, I would still be able to do it.”

Mu Yunyao sighed, walked up, and leaned beside Su Qing. “Mother, thank you so much.”

After waiting for nearly an hour, Qu Mama brought the confession letter and quickly walked in. “Grand Princess, I have confessed.”

Mu Yunyao slightly moved the tip of her nose. She could clearly smell the thick scent of blood on Senior Servant Qu’s body.

After the Grand Princess Yi De finished reading, she suddenly slammed the confession in her hand onto the table: “The Su family, what a good Su family!” Although the two of them were only following orders and did not know the Su family’s true purpose, it was not difficult for them to deduce the Su family’s original intentions!

Mu Yunyao picked up the confession. It recorded the relationship between Su Li, Wang Shi, and the Su family. They were long-distance relatives of the old steward of the Su family, and although they looked like ordinary people on the surface, they were actually servants who had signed a death contract with the Su family. They were entrusted by the Su family and adopted Su Qing. Later, they followed the Su family’s arrangement and deliberately married Su Qing to Mucheng, and ... Mucheng is not the biological son of the Li family at all, and was instead something the Su family had arranged ….

After reading the contents, Mu Yunyao felt a chill rising from the bottom of her feet to the top of her head. The creepy feeling made her tremble uncontrollably.

She had once evilly speculated on the Su family’s purpose of adopting a mother. But no matter how hard she assumed, she did not expect the Su family to be so vicious. Mother’s adoptive parents had been intentionally arranged. Her father and grandmother also had been designated. Didn’t that mean that she and her mother have been living under the arrangement of the Su family?

If it wasn’t for the fact that she had gone through a lifetime of experience, had taken Su Qing away from the village, carefully erased the traces, and went to Jingling City. Wouldn’t her entire life have been arranged?

The Grand Princess Yi De was so angry that her face turned blue, and her chest began to ache uncontrollably.

Qu Mama hurriedly stepped forward to support her. “Her Royal Highness, don’t be too angry. It’s not worth it for the sake of the Su family.”

Mu Yunyao came back to her senses and walked up to the Grand Princess to take her pulse, “Grandmother....”

The Grand Princess Yi De took a few deep breaths with all her might before the dull pain in her chest slowly subsided. Her eyes shone with a terrifying light, “I had originally thought that it would be enough to leave the Su family empty-handed. Now, it seems like even if I exterminated all nine of their clans, it would still be difficult to dispel the hatred in my heart! Yao’er, you don’t have to worry about the Su family. From today onwards, I will take care of them.”

“Well, as long as Grandmother isn’t angry, you can do whatever you want.” Thinking about the miserable death of her mother in her previous life, Mu Yunyao felt a bloody smell gush out from her mouth. Madam Li had arranged everything, then her mother being sold into the Zhang Mansion must have been fixed as well. Even if she escaped from Zhang Mansion with a broken leg and died miserably, I am afraid that it was all from the Su family ... The Su family should repay this debt of blood!

Suddenly, Qu Mama cried out, “Madam!”

Mu Yunyao hurriedly turned around and saw Su Qing lying unconscious on the ground with a deathly pale face. She held the confession in her hand.

“Mother!” Su Qing fell into a coma for nearly two hours before she slowly woke up. When she woke up, her expression was lifeless, and she could not stop her tears from rolling down her face. She had read a lot of words in her spare time, and she stumbled to understand the contents of the paper. The more she looked at it, the more cold-hearted she became. Was her past fake? Was Mu Cheng, too?

Mu Yunyao sat on the bed and held her hand. Her eyes reddened as she said, “Mother....”

“Yao’er, go investigate the cause of death of your father. I don’t believe that his kindness towards me is fake. I don’t believe that he didn’t have any sincerity. I want to know the truth. I want to know what your father has been hiding from me for so many years! Yao’er, investigate carefully. Please help your mother find out!”

“Alright, Mother, don’t be sad. I’ll go investigate. I’ll immediately send people to investigate.”

Su Qing held onto Mu Yunyao’s hand tightly. Her tears fell even more fiercely, “Go, make arrangements now. Mother doesn’t need you to accompany her.”

“Then Mother, if there’s anything that makes you uncomfortable, get someone to tell me right away.” Some pain can only be endured by oneself, and outsiders can not help.

“Yes.”

Withdrawing from the room, Mu Yunyao went to see Grand Princess Yi De.

“Yao’er, how is your mother?” Seeing Su Qing faint, Grand Princess Yi De’s old ailment was also infected. The doctor who treated her had just left. Fortunately, there was a prescription sent by Mu Yunyao to recuperate, and the old disease was cured. This prevented her from causing any significant problems.

“Grandmother, there’s no need to worry. Mother is just feeling too sad at the moment. It’s enough as long as she understands.”

“That’s good.” Grand Princess Yi De sighed as she called over Qu Mama. “Recently, the Zhang family of the Great Scholar’s residence has been through a lot of trouble. Did it all come from Zhang Wan?”

“Yes, Miss Zhang learned from her wet nurse that her biological mother was killed by her stepmother. She secretly bought medicine for her stepmother to use. After a period of time, the Zhang Family will probably end up in vain.”

“Tomorrow, let the imperial historian perform. It’s said that the Great Scholar Miss Zhang has the grace to save the sixth princess, but the Sixth Princess actually stole her husband. It was truly a heartless and unjust action, so I thought of a way for Zhang Wan to marry into the Su family.”

Mu Yunyao slightly raised her gaze. “Grandmother, the Sixth Princess has deep feelings for Su Qingwu, I’m afraid....”

“If Huaiyang knew and retreated in the face of difficulties, that would be her fortune. If she insisted on doing it, that would be a fate arrangement. I don’t care about a princess. Yao’er, as I said before, I will take care of the Su family’s matters. You don’t need to worry about it so as not to dirty your hands.”

“... Yes.”

What happened in the princess’s mansion attracted speculation from outsiders. The next day, before everyone could investigate it thoroughly, they heard another piece of news. The Emperor was lucky enough to find the Su family’s legitimate daughter, Su Yuyi, on the Spring Lantern Festival and had bestowed her with the title of a Concubine Yue.

  2. Wow Yuyi… at least Yuyi and her aunt will be too busy dealing with each other to bother Yunyao, hopefully.

    On the other hand, if the Grand Princess will punish the Su family, what about the second Su family…?

  3. Yunyao should make sure her grandmother leaves the second branch of the Su family alone. Otherwise it would be returning their good grace with malice.
