The corner of Yu Yu's mouth twitched as a trace of anger emerged from his eyes and he sneered. Fewer than politics is distrust of oneself.
For Madame Zhao to provoke him in such a superficial manner would immediately arouse his suspicions.
"Father, could it be that you also listened to my slanderous words and didn't believe in your daughter?"
Not much more than politics.
During this period of time, the relationship between father and daughter had become much deeper than before. He did not believe that his son would do such a thing.
However, this concerned his own safety, so he had no choice but to be on guard.
Zhao Yuanzhi naturally knew that there was less fear than fear, and she could not let this opportunity slip by. Her face darkened, and she said in a cold voice: "Yun'er, you committed such a grave mistake, how much longer are you going to keep quibbling?"
"Why should I admit to something I didn't do?" His brows were slightly raised, his expression was cold, and he did not give in at all.
"With a witness as a witness, you still dare to say that you didn't do it? "Son, you'd better let your mother go in and do a good search before explaining." Zhao Yuanzhi snapped coldly.
"Father, are you really going to search this Wutong Garden? "Is your daughter such a vile person in your eyes?" Jieyu's cheeks were flushed and his eyes flashed with deep disappointment as he stared at Jieyu.
"This …" Yu Zheng shuddered and hesitated for a moment. When he saw his daughter's expression, even more than politics, he still doubted the old woman's words.
"You old woman, you have to be honest when you speak. This is the Prime Minister's Estate, you can't just spout nonsense and cause trouble here." His expression was cold as he pointed at the old Daoist nanny and asked loudly.
"Honorable Prime Minister, how could this servant dare lie? Every single word I said was true. Back then, it really was the eldest young miss who bribed this servant and wanted me to use a technique that would make me hate my lord to win." This servant does not dare to deceive the old master. " The old Daoist nun was so scared that her face turned pale and she kneeled on the ground with a "plop".
While she was hesitating, Zhao Yuanzhi spoke again.
"Master, from my point of view, since I won't admit it, then this daoist lady must be the one who placed the curse on me." He might as well search the Wutong Gardens. If Su'er had never done it before, he could just restore her innocence. However, if there really is someone who is tiresome to the old master, the old master cannot let his guard down. " Zhao Yuanzhi pretended to be concerned.
Yuchan frowned and thought for a moment, "Alright, let's do as Madam says."
"Father, are you really going to search the Wutong Courtyard? "This is mother's former courtyard …" Her eyebrows were slanted inwards and her face was icy cold.
Hearing her talk about the Xie family caused her heart to tremble. She took a deep breath and said, "My son, don't worry too much. Your father wants to prove your innocence."
"To prove the innocence of his daughter? Father, your daughter never wanted to harm your father. I never thought that your father would also have a soft ear, listen to the slanderous talk of the villains, and suspect your daughter. The poor girl had lost her mother when she was young and had no protection. Otherwise, how could she have suffered such injustice? " Tears flickered in her eyes as she stared at him.
For a moment, it was less than political and a bit less resolute.
Zhao Yuanzhi looked at Yuanzhi's expression. She was worried that Yuanzhi would go back on his word, so she quickly added fuel to the fire.
"Master, this Wutong Garden is bound to be searched. This matter concerns the reputation of the Prime Minister's Estate."
After a moment of consideration, his face darkened and he said to Yu, "Young man, don't worry about your sins. Don't be afraid of the devil knocking on the door. I will not let you be wronged. "
"If father insists on doing so, daughter only needs to show her determination with her death." In a flash of tears, Little Orchid snatched the dagger from Little Orchid's hand and placed it across her neck.
"What is it, son? Put the blade down and we'll talk slowly. " Yu Zhenren was frightened as well. His face turned pale and cold sweat started to form on his forehead.
Zhao Yuanzhi frowned and thought to herself, "This little bitch is so afraid of me going to the search house. It looks like what this Daoist nun said is true." Hmph, the more you try to stop me, the more I will reveal the truth.
"Master, the art of casting spells is a taboo in our Wu Country. Those who are cursed will suffer from it and suffer greatly. They might even lose their lives in the end. This is a huge matter that concerns our son's innocence and the old master's life.
Yuichi stroked his beard and coughed.
"Your mother has a point, son. I don't want you to bear such a crime. "
"Father, it seems that you are determined to search the Wutong Courtyard." He wondered if his father still remembered that last time someone had framed his daughter and searched the Pine Lake. In the end, his daughter had indeed been wrongly accused. Could it be that father has the heart to let his daughter be wrongly accused again? "
Tears streamed down his face, and his face was filled with grievance.
Yu Zheng sighed and comforted her: "Yun'er, I have indeed wronged you for what happened last time. This time, I'm definitely not searching. Look, there are a lot of snakes and bugs. You're just a girl, if you get bitten, it'll be troublesome. I am only ordering people to examine the snake and insect, you do not have to worry too much. "
He wiped the tears off his face and smiled sarcastically.
"Since father and mother both insist on searching this Wutong Garden, daughter is also powerless. However, since our daughter has said so, these random people will come here late at night and disturb our daughter's mother. After this matter is over, our father should help our child's mother make a training hall and pray for our daughter's mother. He should return the peace and tranquility to her. "
"How can I do that?" However, since we're only entering the courtyard, there's no need for us to gather so many people. " Zhao Yuanzhi felt displeased. Wouldn't it be a blessing for her to arrange a meeting for that Xie woman?
It was rare for the government to ignore Zhao Yuanzhi's objections and nod in agreement.
"Alright, father, please remember your promise just now. "Then come at me." It was less than cold words.
Zhao Yuanzhi immediately rushed into the Wutong Courtyard with her servants and servants.
"Search carefully for me, don't let Eldest Miss find fault."
Zhao Yuanzhi ordered with a strange tone.
Yucheng walked into the Wutong Courtyard, followed by Xiao Lan.
Zhao Yuanzhi had long since received word that the charm had been buried in the backyard, and she motioned for them to search for it.
Everyone started searching in the backyard, and soon, an underground jar was dug out.
Mrs Liu, holding the jar, jogged excitedly over.
"Reporting to the old master and his wife, I found it."
"Open." Zhao Yuanzhi was overjoyed, and her eyes shone brightly. 'You little bitch, let's see how you're going to explain this!'
Mrs Liu opened the jar and everyone's eyes fell on it. When they saw what was inside, they couldn't help but be shocked.
