The instant the jar was opened, a rich fragrance drifted out. It turned out that the jar contained wine.

"This …" Mother Liu could not help but be dumbfounded. Didn't they say that the jar was filled with a curse?

Zhao Yuanzhi's heart sank, and a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes. Her face immediately turned extremely ugly to behold.

He had never thought that this jar would actually contain wine. Hadn't he investigated his trusted aide and found out the exact information? What was going on?

Zhao Yuanzhi panicked. How was this possible? How could the runes in the jar suddenly change into wine in the blink of an eye? Could it be that this little slut played a trick on me to lure me into digging another trap?

The more Zhao Yuanzhi thought about it, the more suspicious she felt. She regretted that she had been too careless and had fallen for her trap. And now, how would this situation end?

Yu Zheng smelled the aroma of the wine and walked closer. When he saw the wine in the jar, a look of astonishment flashed across his face, but soon after, his expression also gradually relaxed. Yu Zheng let out a sigh of relief in his heart. Luckily, it was only wine. If it was true that he was disgusted with himself, he really would have to consider how to deal with it. The next time the Prime Minister's daughter cursed at his father, it would also be a disgrace to his own reputation if word of it got out. But from the looks of it now, it was only a false alarm.

"Yun'er, this is …" Yu Zheng pointed to the jar and asked doubtfully.

When she saw the situation, she felt wronged and her voice trembled.

"Father, this is the medicinal wine that daughter made for you."

"Medicinal wine? For my father? " It was less than politics being surprised.

She nodded.

Zhao Yuanzhi snorted with a cold expression, unwilling to give up.

"The medicinal wine that I prepared for master, why did you hide under the ground in the backyard? It's obviously because you have something up your sleeve."

"Mother, your daughter knows that you have always disliked me. If you want to add to your sins, then why would you bother saying a word?" His eyes were burning, and his face looked a bit ugly.

Yu Zheng couldn't help but ask, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"Father, didn't you just listen to the slanderous talk? My daughter was filial, she knew that your waist and legs had been sore recently, so she got someone to prescribe the medicine and make the wine. I heard that the best effect could only be achieved if the medicinal wine was buried underground for forty-nine days. I never thought that someone would use this to frame our daughter as someone who wanted to harm our father. "

A trace of guilt flashed across his face.

Zhao Yuanzhi was momentarily flustered. She had not expected the situation to turn out like this.

What should I do? I can't let this little bitch easily get away from me. Otherwise, it'll be even harder to catch her in the future.

Zhao Yuanzhi shot a look at the woman behind her. The woman understood, and quickly gave orders in a low voice. The women followed her orders, pretending to dig up the child's clothes from the ground and handed them over.

"Master, madam, these children's clothes were dug out from the ground." The old woman purposely reported loudly.

In fact, Zhao Yuanzhi had told her servants to hold them in their arms, just in case. Sure enough, things had changed, and she could make use of this opportunity.

"Master, these are all for casting spells. I never thought that you, Feng'er, would be so vicious as to truly place a curse on my master. " Zhao Yuanzhi exclaimed, and her face also turned extremely ugly.

Yuichi had only taken a single glance, but he already understood in his heart what was going on.

The dirt on the clothes of those children was still floating on the surface. It must be the Zhao Family again …

"Enough!" He suddenly shouted at Madame Zhao, his face ashen, the veins on his forehead stood out, making him extremely angry, "You are the matriarch of the Prime Minister's Estate, you should look like one. You have no proof, you should make wild guesses, listen to a crazy woman's words, and then you mess around with our son's residence. Don't you know what you're supposed to do? "How can you still act like you're the mother when you don't know what's going on and why you are pestering us like this!"

Zhao Yuanzhi was frightened to the point that her body quivered, while the maids and wives beside her quieted down.

She stealthily glanced at Yu Yu Zheng and did not dare to retort. She could only silently curse him in her heart for being too crafty and scheming as she lowered her head.

A trace of cold anger flashed in Yu Cheng's eyes as he snapped, "Hurry up and leave!"

The maids and servants didn't dare to make a sound, and obediently withdrew from the Wutong Courtyard with pale faces.

This time, he was in big trouble. The lack of evidence infuriated the old master, and he was afraid that the madame would not be able to escape responsibility. These servants were all anxious.

Zhao Yuanzhi stood on the spot, not daring to move. Her entire face was drained of blood, and her palms were covered in sweat.

She had lost all her face before the government scolded her harshly in front of so many people.

"Old master, I'm just …"

"You can leave as well." Before she could finish her explanation, Yu Zheng's voice interrupted her words without any warmth.

Zhao Yuanzhi's heart skipped a beat. She knew that it was useless to say anything when he was angry, so she could only bow slightly with a slight tremble of her body and leave the Wutong Courtyard in a flustered manner.

Seeing that everyone had already left, Yu Wei looked at Yu Yu Yu with a serious expression. She sighed and said, "Today is the day you shouldn't take it to heart. Rest early."

Watching Yu Cheng's back that had left the Wutong Courtyard, a proud smile appeared on his face.

He had finally completed his plan flawlessly.

A few days ago, Xiao Lan had purposely revealed a flaw to the Zhao family, making them suspect that she was casting a spell in the Prime Minister's Estate.

However, Zhao Yuanzhi was not a person that was easy to deal with. After many rounds of sparring, she would definitely take extra precautions. She wouldn't be able to take the bait so quickly.

Thanks to the denouncement of her identity to Zhao Yuanzhi, the Daoist nun had been able to make this even more credible. Furthermore, in order to defeat Zhao Yuanzhi, she had already prepared the medicinal wine early on in order to lure her into taking the bait.

It was rare for Zhou Yuanzhi to recall his old relationship with the Xie family from the medicinal wine she drank. No matter how much trouble Zhao Yuanzhi caused, it was all to be in vain.

This matter had finally come to an end. However, Zhao Yuanzhi was still able to lift a rock and smash her own foot with it.

Hmph, Zhao Yuanzhi, you used your father's favor to make things difficult for me. I will make you lose all trust in me this time, and see how you will continue to stir up trouble in this Prime Minister's Estate.

"Congratulations young miss, you've achieved your objective." Xiaolan said softly as she approached him.

She was very pleased with Xiao Lan's performance today. With this girl by her side, it would be twice the result with half the effort.

"This miss has always been strict with her rewards and punishments. Xiao Lan is loyal to the master today. If I did well, I would reward Xiao Lan with pure gold hand carrot."

In front of all the wives and maids in the courtyard, Xiao Lan took out a golden hand and personally placed it on her own.
