Fate's Little Feral Consort - Chapter 80
Chapter 80: Chapter 80 ‘Family’
“Men, bring the evidence and witnesses.”
Immediately after the old madam gave the order, Zhao Qingshan, the housekeeper of the family, took some things and led several servants in.
Zhao Qingshan held a wrapper in his hand while the servants were all from Black Bamboo Pavilion. The first one was Qiu Chan, who had taken breakfast to Yun Qianyu. At this time, Qiu Chan’s head hung low, her hands tightly tugged at the corner of her clothes as she knelt down nervously.
Following Qiu Chan were a few other servants. An older woman and a younger girl. They all kneeled with their heads down.
“What happened in the morning?” the old madam asked.
Qiu Chan took the lead and answered, “Old madam, in the afternoon since the young miss had not woken up, Nanny Jia thought that was against the rules. So she went to the room to wake the young miss up. She took the opportunity to teach her some discipline, saying that she should greet the old madam and madam Hou every morning.”
“Out of nowhere the young miss got angry and ordered Nanny Jia to kneel in the yard. After Nanny Jia went to kneel in the yard, the young miss led Hua Mei to the main hall for breakfast. Oddly, she didn’t eat the lotus seed honey porridge but gave it to Nanny Jia instead. When Nanny Jia finished eating the porridge, she had a headache and rushed out like a crazy person.
After Qiu Chan finished speaking, a servant girl behind her agreed, “I saw this, too. Nanny Jia looked like a madman, holding her head while shouting out in great pain.”
After the two servants finished speaking, Zhao Qingshan raised the wrapper in his hand and said, “This was what I found in the main hall after the old madam asked me to investigate the matter. In case someone said that this servant was lying, I had called several people to come along. Everyone there saw it with their own eyes.”
The servants behind him all said, “Yes, we saw it.”
“Me too.”
The old madam then ordered Zhao Qingshan, “Get physician Lin to check what the wrapper contained.”
“Yes,” Zhao Qingshan quickly called physician Lin in. Physician Lin examined the wrapper and explained his findings, “Old Madam, Marquis, and Princes. The wrapper has leftover Bone Rotting Flower powder and Thunder Duke vine powder.”
The old madam asked physician Lin, “What are these two things?”
“Old madam, these two things can poison a person’s mind and cause someone to become delirious.”
Hearing that, the old madam immediately looked angrily at Yun Qianyu.
“Yun Qianyu, what else can you say now? Can you deny the evidence and witnesses against you?”
Without waiting for Yun Qianyu to speak, the old madam looked at Xiao Jiuyuan and said slowly, “Your Highness, how should we deal with her?”
Xiao Jiuyuan did not look at the old madam, he only glanced at Yun Qianyu and asked, “What do you have to say?”
Yun Qianyu couldn’t help but sneer in disgust. Even though she didn’t like to see Xiao Jiuyuan, she felt moved since Xiao Jiuyuan was the first person to ask what she had to say.
Even if a person was sentenced to death they would get a chance to explain.
Ridiculous, these so-called relatives, not even giving her a chance to defend herself.
Maybe that’s what they want in their hearts. They all want me to die!
How can I grant them what they want? On the contrary, I will make them pay greatly for this!
Yun Qianyu looked at Xiao Jiuyuan and said, “Your Highness, do you think I’m such a stupid person? If I killed someone, no one would be able to convict me.”
