When the old lady heard Mu Xuechu's accusation, she trembled all over and felt bitter in her heart. She held the faucet crutch and managed to stand still. She said in a sad voice: "So you have been resenting me for so many years? Do you blame me and your elder brother for putting you in trouble?" Marry lowly, blame us for preventing you from becoming a palace concubine.
In your eyes, everything we do is selfish. Since you don't like the husband we chose for you, why didn't you divorce early and why did you delay Shen Chi for so many years? What do you think of him? "
Mu Xuechu was startled and looked at her mother in disbelief.
The matter has been revealed, and the old lady no longer hides it. She raised her head and said: "Your elder brother and I already know about you and Shen Chi. Since you want to be His Majesty's concubine so much, my mother can help you. You can do it now." Together with Shen Chi and Li, how about I go to meet His Majesty and ask her to marry you?"
Mu Xuechu's expression changed: "Mom, what are you talking about?"
The old lady snorted: "You are ignorant and think that your eldest brother and I have ruined your life. Then we will help you and not block your path to wealth. Why aren't you willing?"
Mu Xuechu couldn't help but said angrily: "Now is not the time to talk about this. Mom, if you feel you owe me something, just make the decision for Sister Yue and ask Yan Yan to hand over the antidote."
The old lady closed her eyes. She was too angry just now, and now is really not the time to talk about this.
She took a deep breath to calm down, then looked at Mu Yun'an and asked, "Yan Yan, was it really you who poisoned Sister Yue'er?"
Mu Yun'an was silent for a moment, then nodded and admitted, "It's me."
The old lady was stunned and felt like the world was spinning. Why, why on earth, what evil had the Mu family done?
She was in great pain and tried to hold back her breath without fainting, but she heard Mu Yun'an say: "But there is a reason why my grandson did this."
Mu Xuechu sternly scolded: "Why do you want to harm Sister Yue like this? How did she offend you, and how did our Shen family offend you?"
Xiao Chengyi stood in front of Mu Yun'an and replied on her behalf: "I can understand Mrs. Shen protecting her daughter, but do you know what kind of character your daughter is?
Is she really as weak and innocent as she seems? Don't you want to know why Yan Yan poisoned her? Then you also have to ask what your daughter has done to Yan Yan? "
Mu Xuechu looked at him with confusion and asked, "What do you mean by this?"
Xiao Chengyi sneered. He glanced at Shen Wanyue who was lying on the bed with a pale face and said, "I know you won't believe anything I say. Fortunately, I have evidence. Since you want to force Yan Yan to die, then Don't blame me for being ruthless."
He gave an order: "Anping, go and invite the witnesses."
"yes."
Anping responded outside the door, and everyone couldn't help but wonder who the witness Xiao Chengyi wanted to invite. Shen Wanyue was even more surprised and uneasy.
The old lady didn't say much when she saw this, and the room was quiet for a while.
Then Xiao Chengyi took out a bottle of plaster from his arms, took some and gently touched Mu Yun'an's face and said, "Don't be afraid, I will make the decision for you."
Mu Yun'an's eyes heated up, she sniffed and nodded heavily.
Only then did the old lady notice something was wrong, and she asked curiously: "What's wrong with Yan Yan's face?"
Xiao Chengyi said: "Then you have to ask your good daughter. She attacked Yan Yan indiscriminately and slapped her. Poor Yan Yan treats her as an aunt, but Mrs. Shen does not treat her as a niece."
The old lady felt a little chilled when she heard that. She knew that her daughter had put all her grievances on Yan Yan. She shook the crutch on her hand and said coldly: "Chu'er, how could you do this to Yan Yan? She is
