The market was still lively, and many people gathered around the Moon Lake to put up lanterns. Jiang Ning and Cai He passed through the crowd and got into the carriage that had been prepared.
In the private room at the end of the second floor, after the servants beside Fang Cili carried him out, Shen Manshu hurriedly walked into the room and quickly closed the door as soon as he entered.
Jiang Xueyi was on the bed, her snow-white skin covered with traces of being violated, only covered by a thin blanket.
"Snapped--"
Shen Manshu turned around and slapped Shen Qingyao.
Shen Manshu glared at her as if she was wearing a razor blade, "Of course, how could Yi'er have fallen into that love potion?!"
Shen Manshu was well versed in the tricks of the queen's house. Listening to Ningxiang's story and Jiang Xueyi's roar just now, she naturally realized that Jiang Xueyi had been poisoned by a charm drug, and that the drug was supposed to be used on Jiang Ning.
Shen Qingyao rubbed her swollen face with the palm of her hand, met her sharp gaze, and smiled as if she was a different person: "That medicine Yao'er didn't get into Sixth Sister's wine."
"What a wolf-hearted thing!"
Shen Manshu raised her hand again, but this time she grabbed it hard. She looked at her trembling pupils and said word by word: "I want the position of the second wife's first wife."
Shen Manshu wanted to suppress this matter, so she thought Jiang Xueyi had suffered a bad loss and went back to drink Bizi Soup. In the future, she would find a good family and find some way to cover up the matter on the night of flowers and candles in the wedding room.
But there is nowhere in the world such a good thing.
"Did that little bitch give you the trick?"
At this point, if Shen Manshu still can't see that Shen Qingyao and Jiang Ning are on the same side, then wouldn't it mean that she can't afford the title of the mistress of the Jiang family?
"Auntie, let's focus on the beautiful girl first. There are people coming and going outside, and Yao'er is really afraid of accidentally spilling the beans."
Shen Qingyao thought she had Shen Manshu under control and said with great pride.
Shen Manshu turned to look at Jiang Xueyi on the bed. She was curled up in a ball and shivering before she was fully conscious. The stained marks on her body were like knives piercing into Shen Manshu's eyes.
"I promise you--"
Shen Manshu gritted her teeth and responded with a trembling voice.
Shen Qingyao's face was full of smiles, but she couldn't see the murderous intent faintly revealed in Shen Manshu's eyes.
After bringing Jiang Xueyi back to the carriage, Shen Manshu asked someone to bring a message to Jiang Xu, and then returned to the Duke Protector's Mansion.
Sitting on the main seat, Mrs. Jiang Xu pretended to be nothing, even if she knew what was going on, and waited until the moon viewing was over.
After following the Jiang Xu family for many years, how could He Wanyun not see that she was trying her best to hide it, and she increasingly guessed that what she was thinking was right.
Jiang Xueyi was defiled by Fang Cili, and Jiang Ning couldn't get into Jiang Xu's eyes. Then wouldn't Jiang Xueyan become the sweet potato in Jiang Xu's eyes in the future?
Maybe, the Jiangxu family would also ask Shen Manshu to hand over the palace's treasures to her.
He Wanyun lowered her eyelashes, her eyes sparkling.
That night, the lights in the second-bedroom courtyard stayed on all night.
Jiang Xueyi's frightened screams came out from Qiyun Courtyard all at once, making the entire Jiang family's servants' scalps go numb.
The next day, Nanny Zhang led people into Furong Courtyard early in the morning and took Jiang Ning to Furui Hall.
There were only Mrs. Jiang and the people from the second room in the hall. The entire Furui Hall was guarded inside and outside by Jiang family guards. It was difficult for even a fly to fly out from here.
"Little bitch——"
Seeing Jiang Ning, Shen Manshu rushed towards her like crazy, but luckily she was blocked by Cai He for a moment.
Jiang Ning stood behind Cai He and stared coldly at Shen Manshu who was stopped. She had not slept all night, her eyes were bloodshot and her hair was messy. She had completely lost her usual dignified and gentle matron style.
"Second aunt, have you given the eldest sister the Bizi Decoction?"
Jiang Ning asked her like a pug begging for mercy.
"you--"
Jiang Ning curled her lips and smiled: "If I were the second aunt, I would not give the eldest sister the anti-child soup. After all, the mother married into the Fang family based on the wealth of her son. Even if she lost the love of Mr. Fang, she could still get Fang Zhangyuan. With Mrs. Fang’s love and affection.”
"But if you've ever taken Bizi Decoction..."
Jiang Ning looked at her and shook her head helplessly.
At this time, Shen Manshu seemed as if she had fallen into an ice cave, her face was frighteningly pale.
