She appeared like a compassionate elder and called Chu Chengye inside, instructing, âYeâer, Xiaotian is your elder brother, and Su Han is also your sister-in-law. 1 know you wouldnât bear to see them separated and the Regional Princeâs Mansion in such a state.â
âMother, I will do everything in my power to help reunite our elder brotherâs family.â
A hint of malice flickered in Chu Chengyeâs eyes.
He naturally had to assist Chu Xiaotian!
Assist himâ¦and teach Su Yingxue a lesson!
Su Yingxue waited in the Marquisâs Manor for three days until Zhilan smiled and came to report, âMiss, Lord Liang is here! There must be some progress in Miss Hanâs case!â
Su Yingxue smiled. âI trust Lord Liangâs efficiency!â
In the front hall, she treated Liang Jin with utmost respect and even personally served him tea.
Liang Jin stood to accept the tea, but his expression wasnât favorable. âMiss Su, Iâm here to discuss the case. Could you please bring out Lord Su and Miss Su Hanâs family? 1 have some questions to ask.â
Su Yingxue had someone bring Su Han out, but from Liang Jinâs tone, the outcome didnât seem as expected.
Su Dingwei was busy in the army, so Qin Wan accompanied Su Han.
âRegional Princess, are you sure that everything you said is true?â Liang Jin asked upon seeing Su Han, showing her the complaint and medical report.
Su Hanâs gaze was firm. âEvery word 1 spoke was true! Lord Liang, youâve already inquired and examined my injuries. Why ask again today?â
Su Yingxue and Qin Wan shared the same doubts.
Liang Jin produced another confession. âThis is what Iâve investigated, the testimonies of the servants of the Regional Princeâs Mansion, Madam Sheng, and the Min Jia County Lord. Their accounts differ significantly from yours, Regional Princess, and it implicates Miss Su.â
Liang Jinâs gaze fell on Su Yingxue.
Su Yingxue and Su Han read the confession together, and Su Han trembled uncontrollably. âThisâ¦theyâre twisting the truth! How could this be possible?â
She, usually elegant, clenched her fists tightly, her eyes filled with intense hatred. âTheyâve bullied me and now theyâre slandering me like this!â
Su Yingxue glanced at the testimony. It stated that Su Han, wielding the authority of the steward, had bullied Madam Sheng and the Min Jia County Lord at the Regional Princeâs Mansion. Despite their repeated concessions, they couldnât tolerate it any longer when Su Han fell ill.
Theyâve cleaned up their image, only to falsely accuse Su Han now?
âThis is outrageous! Theyâve gone too far at the Regional Princeâs Mansion! Hanâer has never harmed them in the slightest!â
Qin Wan was so furious she threw the testimony to the ground!
Su Yingxueâs expression betrayed her confusion. She hadnât expected Chu Xiaotian to react this way in just two or three days. It was truly disgusting!
âMiss Su, with the case having progressed to this point, 1 must investigate it more carefully. The Regional Princeâs Mansion even tasked me to convey their message. They say that if Regional Princess is willing to return, theyâll overlook the past and not pursue the matter of Princessâs want to break the ties with Regional Prince.â
âImpossible!â Su Han exclaimed angrily as soon as Liang Jin finished speaking. âI will never go back!â
She was unwilling to let this matter go again!
Su Yingxue picked up the testimony and handed it to Liang Jin with a cold demeanor. âLord Liang, our Su family will not let this matter rest with the Regional Princeâs Mansion. Please investigate it thoroughly.â
Liang Jin knew this was the case, so he merely conveyed the message and planned to leave.
However, on his way out, he happened to encounter Chu Xiaotian and Chu Chengye.
Chu Chengye politely greeted him, stating that they had come to apologize to Su Han and take her back to the princeâs mansion..
