Chapter 1217 Who Did It?

Shao Jieer cried and said firmly while wiping away her tears, Although such a thing happened to Grandma after I left, how can I leave now? I have to stay to serve Grandma. Im not leaving until she gets better.

Zhao Xiran was so angry that she almost blew up. Does she mean that this only happened after she left? Shes blaming me for not taking good care of Old Madam.

She reached out to pull Shao Jieer and continued to persuade her. Second Sister

Shao Jieer shook off Zhao Xirans hand and grabbed the table beside her tightly with the other hand. She grabbed the table so hard that it was pulled over. If you insist on me going back, I will die here today.

Zhao Xiran was so p.i.s.sed that she gritted her teeth and didnt want to care about Shao Jieer anymore. She turned to Shao Huaan. Hubby what do you think of this matter?

Let Second Sister stay and take care of Grandma! Shao Huaan said with a cold face and glanced at Zhao Xiran with dissatisfaction.

Zhao Xiran could also see the displeasure in Shao Huaans eyes, but she didnt mean to take over and serve Old Madam. She thought it was good for Old Madam to end up like this, who would no longer get to point at her and scold her as soon as things went wrong. Her face still hurt a little now.

She had wanted Old Madam to come back because she wanted her to stop her father-in-law from marrying a b.i.t.c.h and taking her into the mansion. Unexpectedly, after Old Madam and Shao Jing talked about it in private, Old Madam seemed to agree to it.

In fact, not only Old Madam and my father-in-law but also my husband agreed to this, right?

At the thought of this, Zhao Xiran felt very aggrieved.

Why do they all know the reason but I dont? Its obvious that they dont treat me as one of them and suspect me. What Madam Jiang had said at that time always came to Zhao Xirans mind. Does Shao Huaan really know that I married him for another purpose and then secretly observe me and fool me like a clown? Or is it just Madam Jiang who thinks so?

Zhao Xiran had no answer to those questions, so she could only be careful. She really didnt want to intervene in the matter of Old Madam.

Old Madam was in a bad situation now. Zhao Xiran thought that it was better for her to avoid unnecessary trouble.

When Shao Jing came back, Old Madam had already fallen asleep. After she had a stroke, her face and mouth were twisted, and she couldnt even say a complete sentence. However, it could be seen that she was very angry. She pushed Shao Jieer to the ground, wanted to slap her, and then fell asleep.

She was no longer as clear-minded as before.

Shao Jing sat on the chair in front of the bed with a gloomy face and looked at Old Madam lying on the bed. After a long while, he waved his hand and asked Shao Jieer to come over.

Do you want to stay and take care of your grandma? Shao Jing asked coldly.

Shao Jieer was still very scared upon seeing Shao Jing. She said in a trembling voice, Yes I Im worried about Grandmas health

Shao Jing looked kind with his round face, but now it somehow made Shao Jieer feel scared.

You dont do well in Commandery Prince Qings Mansion, do you? Shao Jing said coldly. Looking at Shao Jieer, who was trembling, he felt disgusted. His daughter was so useless that it really made him angry.

If it were Ruer, he wouldnt need to spend so much effort to support her.

At the thought of Shao Yanru, he felt annoyed again. He had to solve this problem immediately. So what if he was a disloyal man? It was best for Ruer to become his daughter again.

Father I I dont want to go to Commandery Prince Qings Mansion. Knowing that Shao Jing had seen through her, Shao Jieer knelt with a thud, crawled to him on her knees, and cried, Father, they said that they would give me a t.i.tle of consort, but they havent officially given it to me yet and asked the people in the mansion to call me Second Miss. I I am at least your daughter!

They call you Second Miss Shao? Shao Jing said with a trace of anger across his eyes.

Being bullied by other princes is one thing, but Commandery Prince Qing is nothing. How dare he disgrace me?

Yes they said they said that Im just your concubines daughter, and your legitimate daughter is just the lowest-ranking Secondary Consort, so why why should I be a high-ranking consort? Shao Wanru knew that Shao Jing had never cared about her, so she deliberately mentioned Shao Yanru.

Shao Yanru was the Secondary Consort with the lowest status, while Commandery Prince Qings consort would be more honorable than her, and had a much higher status. Because of Shao Yanru, Shao Jieer didnt even have a t.i.tle.

Chu Qing has gone too far! Shao Jing was furious and gnashed his teeth hard.

If he were still the powerful duke in the past, he would directly attack Commandery Prince Qings Mansion and would never give up until Chu Qing apologized.

But at this time, Marquis Xings Mansion was in chaos, and he had not cleared his name yet. Although it was impossible to find out what had happened at that time, he was suspected. For him, if there was no big change in his future career, it was impossible for him to get promoted.

Unless Prince Cheng, whom Shao Jing placed his bet on, could ascend to the throne, he could be put into an important position.

Compared with Prince Yue and Prince Zhou, Shao Jing had always favored Prince Cheng the most. He was very angry with his daughters previous behavior. My bets are on Prince Cheng, so my daughter can only marry into Prince Chengs Mansion. As for Prince Yue and Prince Zhou, they are both useless. Otherwise, my daughter would not have ended up like this and even pretended to be dead and left the Palace.

Its useless for Ruer to hesitate any longer. This time, I cant have her be so willful as to ruin herself and Marquis Xings Mansion.

As long as Prince Cheng can ascend to the throne, everything that had happened before would not be a big deal. Huaan will get the position of the heir of Marquis Xing again, and Marquis Xings Mansion will be restored to Duke Xings Mansion due to my help to the future Emperor.

Everything will not be a problem as long as I stick with Prince Cheng closely and send my daughter to him.

Shao Jing stood up and said coldly, Since you dont want to go, stay here and take good care of your grandma. After that, he turned around and strode away.

Shao Jieer was overjoyed and said in a hurry, Yes, Father. I will take good care of Grandma.

Since her father had said so, he would definitely send his men to Commandery Prince Qings Mansion to inform them that she would be staying. After that, she would never leave Marquis Xings Mansion. If Chu Qing insisted on sending his men to pick her up, she would run away. Even if she needed to run away from the capital city, she would never go back to Commandery Prince Qings Mansion and live with the women there again.

Shao Jieer stood up with pride in her eyes and looked at Old Madam lying on the bed with a smile. This d.a.m.ned old woman has always looked down on me. She thinks that Im not as good as Shao Yanru. She must have never thought that she would be schemed against by me one day.

I dont need her dead. As long as she lives like this, even if she hates me, it doesnt matter. She cant even talk now. No one will know what she means, and no one will know that I made this happen.

When Nanny Yu entered the room, she saw Shao Jieer standing in front of Old Madams bed with a bright smile on her face. In contrast, Old Madam was lying on the bed unconscious. This inexplicably appeared terrifying.

With a clang, Shao Jieer was alarmed. When she looked up and saw Nanny Yu squatting down to pick up the basin on the ground, she quickly restrained the complacent smile on her face and stepped forward to help Nanny Yu clean up.

She thought that Nanny Yu didnt see anything unusual, but in fact, she didnt see that Nanny Yu was holding the side of the basin tightly with her trembling fingers, and her eyes were full of fear.

There were some things that could be guessed. Nanny Yu had always been a smart person. If she hadnt seen Second Misss expression, she might not have guessed her intention, but now she knew what happened.

No wonder Old Madam got so agitated when she saw Second Miss that she even pushed Second Miss down

Although Old Madam doesnt treat Second Miss well and usually doesnt take her seriously, after all, she is her grandmother and has been protecting her since she was a child. If it werent for Old Madam, Madam Jiang wouldnt have tolerated Second Miss

The news that Old Madam had a stroke reached Prince Chens Mansion in the evening. Shao Wanru and Chu Liuchen came over together.

Hearing that the two of them came over, Shao Jing personally led them to the Chuntang Courtyard of Old Madam. In the night, lanterns had been lit up in the courtyard.

Chu Liuchen walked in the front with a lazy face. Shao Wanru was behind him and followed him slowly. Although they didnt talk, they appeared in harmony.

Shao Jing coughed in a low voice, trying to break the silence.

Marquis Xing, has the Ministry of Justice finished recording the statement? Chu Liuchen suddenly asked, squinted at Shao Jing, who was also following him, and then reached out to pull Shao Wanrus sleeve and walked a few steps forward with her. They happened to walk side by side, leaving Shao Jing behind.ReadNovelFull.com

Shao Jing didnt want to talk about the Ministry of Justice at all, especially in front of Shao Wanru. He coughed in a low voice and said, Yes.

Have they found any clues? Chu Liuchen said indifferently, The Ministry of Justice has been less effective recently. Madam Jiang was killed there. Who couldnt tolerate her to that extent? Or is it that someone killed her because they were afraid that she would say something inappropriate?

Shao Jing was furious. It was obvious that Chu Liuchen was insinuating him, but he didnt dare to argue with Chu Liuchen. Chu Liuchen was a wanton person who always acted according to his will. If Shao Jing really provoked him, no one knew what kind of trouble he would make. No matter what kind of trouble he made, since it happened in Shao Jings mansion, it would inevitably be his fault in the end.

Shao Jing was angry and full of hatred. He could only grit his teeth to suppress the anger in his heart and said, Dont worry, Prince. They will find out the truth.

Chu Liuchen smiled and said leisurely, That would be for the best. Marquis Xing, you also need to be careful. Madam Jiang died during the interrogation. If something bad happens to you when you go there, Shao Yuanhao will become the new marquis. Hes still too young!

Shao Jing clenched his fists hard, and the blue veins on his forehead couldnt help twitching a few times. Finally, he calmed down and said, What a nice joke, Your Highness. No one dares to take action in the Ministry of Justice. I will be very safe there. Nothing will happen to me.

You trust the Ministry of Justice too much. If those officials were so competent, your madam wouldnt have had an accident in the Ministry of Justice, Chu Liuchen said disapprovingly.

What he said meant that Madam Jiang had been murdered. Shao Jings face darkened.
