Someone's certificate? Not to mention the Old Madame Ye and Ye Lin, even Jin Lan did not expect the Madame SHen to suddenly say this.

Jin Lan raised his head and looked at Madame SHen. Although her eyes were still rimmed red, he could see the confidence on her face, so he relaxed for the moment and let go of the old lady's sleeve and quietly sat by the side.

Old Madame Ye did not ask her in a hurry, but stared intently at Madame SHen with an unsettled expression, as if he was pondering if her words were true or false. Only after a long while did she ask: "Who is the witness?"

"The old lady is not in the residence. I'm afraid that the master does not know about this matter. However, the maid that was sent to the yamen that day was not one, but two."

Not one, but two. Jin Lan's heart was slightly stifled as he suddenly jumped up.

That's right, how could she have forgotten that there was another person other than Chun Xiao who had been beaten stiff and sent to the yamen.

"Oh?" Old Madame Ye looked at Ye Lin suspiciously.

Ye Lin was startled for a moment, and then nodded his head awkwardly: That's right, there are indeed two maids, your son has forgotten about them.

He was clear that the two maids were sent to the yamen, but other than avoiding Chun Xiao's identity, he did not pay attention to the other maid. It was like when Boshan sent someone to tell him about this matter, he was only so busy returning to find Madame SHen to settle the score, but he forgot to ask about it as he was in a hurry.

Only now, when the Madame SHen mentioned it, did he remember.

With Ye Lin's nod, things became much easier. Madame SHen then spoke out, "I was also worried that the two of them would be colluded, so I had some people specially set up a yamen runner to separate them. Although the cells are different, they are still in the same room, so the maid could clearly see how Chun Xiao got there. "

Old Madame Ye frowned. She couldn't tell if what Madame SHen said was true or not, but it concerned the face of Ye Family. If she could prove that Madame SHen was innocent, then naturally everything would be fine. Therefore, after a moment of silence, she asked the Madame SHen to call the servant girl over.

Madame SHen made sure that Old Madame Ye would ask about it personally, then asked Yan Rong who was waiting outside to call Hui Xiu over, and in front of everyone, ordered Hui Xiu to find Steward Li and bring him out.

Although Steward Li was following by Ye Lin's side, his parents were the old lady's dowry. With Steward Li watching them, even if they were on the road, they would not dare to be careless.

When Hui Xiu left, the house immediately quietened down.

With someone to rely on, Madame SHen's expression returned to her initial indifferent and demure look. She slowly retreated back to her seat, picked up the porcelain tea cup and took a sip, then slightly frowned and let go.

Old Madame Ye held Jin Lan, and patted her back lightly, but didn't say anything. She closed her eyes, and her expression became unclear, causing people to not be able to see what she was thinking.

Jin Lan lay quietly without making a sound, and using the corner of his eyes, he occasionally glanced at Ye Lin, who was wearing an official's robe, who had an even more imposing manner than usual.

What would he do if his mother wasn't certified? Wife? Maybe it was a more vicious way than those eight words? In the morning, his mother had said that he would take care of this matter, yet now, she had brought out a witness. It was sufficient to show that his mother did not completely trust him.

Ye Lin did not notice Jin Lan's probing gaze. The silent atmosphere in the room, combined with the words that had a deeper meaning from Cheng Bo Shan's words that morning, made him restless. He grabbed the teacup and gulped it down. Then, he slammed the teacup on the table and spilled some of the tea on the table.

He said angrily, "I've seen the old lady out for a long time. These servants have all wandered around and actually gave master some cold tea!"

Yan Rong immediately went in to apologize.

Madame SHen glanced at the cup of tea on the table. The tea was cold, but not so cold. She suddenly remembered the words the Concubine Shao of the drooping flower gate said to the old lady, and her eyes couldn't help but flash. The reason why Ye Lin was so angry was not because of the tea break, but because of Cheng Bo Shan.

In the end, the old lady scolded Yan Rong a few times, and then lightly tore it off, and asked her to place the tea on it again.

After waiting for the time it took two incense sticks to burn, Hui Xiu finally brought her to the Jiayu Hall.

Yan Rong lifted the curtain and two human figures entered the house. One of them was dressed in dark blue clothing, and his body was so skinny that it looked like it would fall at any moment. His face had a few wounds on it, and although they were already scabbed, he looked especially sinister. This person was the embroidery mother in the needlework room of Ye Mansion, Ling Shan.

As for the other person, she was wearing a pea-green horse-faced skirt and a hair's breadth away from the rest. It was as if she was extremely unhappy about someone coming to Ye Mansion.

Jin Lan's gaze made contact with her, and she couldn't help but be startled. Why was she here too?

Madame SHen stood up with a smile, "Doctor Gong."

The expression on Doctor Gong's face relaxed as he replied with a bow, "Madam Shen." Then, he bowed towards Old Madame Ye and Ye Lin, "Greetings to the old lady and Lord Ye."

Old Madame Ye nodded and smiled as he allowed her to get up. "Doctor Gong doesn't need to be overly courteous, I hope that you can go to the Huai Xia for a short rest."

Doctor Gong naturally knew that Old Madame Ye was trying to separate him. After all, this was a family matter for Ye Mansion, and as an outsider, it was inconvenient for her to stay in the house. After thinking about it, she nodded and followed Yan Rong to the Huai Xia on the right side of the Jiayu Hall.

After Doctor Gong left, Old Madame Ye's gaze moved to Ling Shan who was standing there with her head lowered, "She is the servant you were talking about?"

Madame SHen nodded, "Yes."

The Old Madame Ye stared at Ling Shan with her pair of eyes closed, and suddenly shouted: "Hurry and call for the truth!"

Ling Shan trembled, her legs went soft, and with a plop, she knelt down. Ever since she was imprisoned in that dark prison, her heart had been tormented by despair. If it weren't for her remaining hope that that person would keep her promise to save her, she would have collapsed long ago.

Until she saw Chun Xiao's death with her own eyes, she finally understood a little more. And when she was rescued from her cell, he found out that not only did the person she trusted not save him, she even failed to do what she wanted. At this moment, why would she still grit her teeth and refuse to let go? It was as if she was pouring beans into a bamboo shoot as she revealed everything.

The more they heard, the uglier Old Madame Ye and Ye Lin's faces became, especially Ye Lin's, he was so angry that his face turned green, he tightly grabbed onto the armrest with his five fingers turning white, wishing that he could break someone's neck!

Old Madame Ye rubbed her painful forehead and instructed Yan Rong: "Go to Bright Autumn Pavilion, bring Concubine Shao here!"

Hearing the words from inside, Yan Rong, who was already familiar with the nature of Old Madame Ye, immediately knew that she was truly angered, and did not dare to delay in the slightest, allowing Pin Yue to stand guard outside the door and personally rush towards the Bright Autumn Pavilion.

Not long after, Concubine Shao brought Su Xin and entered the Jiayu Hall behind Yan Rong, her face still carrying a trace of excitement. It was obvious that Yan Rong did not inform her about what happened within the Jiayu Hall.

"Old lady, master, madam." Concubine Shao bowed to everyone as soon as she entered the room. When she raised her head, she saw the people kneeling on the ground. Her gaze was stunned for a moment, and then became extremely shocked, as she cried out involuntarily: "Ling Shan?! How could it be you! "

Old Madame Ye raised her eyebrow, and looked at her coldly: "What, you recognize her?"

Concubine Shao acted as if sshe did not hear Old Madame Ye's question, and stared straight into Ling Shan's face. Her fingers under her sleeve curled up into a stiff ball, and her lips trembled slightly. After a long time, he finally managed to squeeze out a sentence from her mouth, "You, haven't you already died?"

Ling Shan turned her head, her eyes suddenly brimming with intense hatred, the corners of her mouth raised coldly, she slowly raised her chest and mocked: "This servant also hopes that I die, if that's the case, I will not know the truth, won't I? Concubine Shao. "

Why did she not ask Yan Rong about it just now? If she had known that Ling Shan was still alive, and was even brought to the old lady, she would have brought him along no matter what she said.

No matter what Ling Shan said, sshe would not be able to prove it! With that, he calmed herself down, and her complexion recovered a little, so she avoided Ling Shan's gaze and smiled at Old Madame Ye, "Old granny, you called me over, is there something important?"

The change in Concubine Shao's expression was all seen by Old Madame Ye. If one were to say that she had only believed five points of Ling Shan's words, she would believe it completely. But in the end, she could not take it lying down, so she endured the anger in her heart, and with a cold face, she repeated what Ling Shan had said. She glared at Concubine Shao and asked sternly: "Is what this servant said the truth!?"

With that, the Concubine Shao turned pale and staggered two steps back. She knelt in front of Old Madame Ye and raised his eyes that were filled with grievance, tears flowing down from his eyes, "Old granny, your servant is wronged! The maid had been ordered by someone to slander this servant. Even if this servant had eaten a leopard's gall bladder, I would not dare to do such a malicious thing, much less the mistress! "

Ling Shan had already guessed that Concubine Shao would not easily admit her mistakes, she took a deep breath, bent down towards Old Madame Ye, touched her forehead to the ground, and raised her head with a determined gaze: "Old granny, I am not slandering Concubine Shao, I have evidence!"
