Chapter 715 A Bite from a Thief Sinks to the Bone

“Tell us, who asked you to put it? If you don’t tell us, you will have to bear the responsibility. Your life... humph...” Auntie Qing added as she smiled coldly at the little maidservant and narrowed her eyes slightly.

“It’s not me... I didn’t, it’s... My Lady. Please save me. I, I listened to your order. You asked me to hide the robe and the letter under these books. My Lady, please save me. I don’t want to die. The letter was written to you by King Chu...” It seemed that the little maidservant was so frightened that she was incoherent, but she revealed more and more information unconsciously.

She had even brought up Feng Yuxuan as a matter of course.

“What? It’s King Chu?”

“King Chu’s robe and letters?”

“This... this... is not true, isn’t it...?” Everyone was shocked. They had thought that Consort Xuan had a love affair with another man when she hadn’t gotten married yet. They did not expect this person to be King Chu. Everyone present was so shocked that they nearly could not speak.

“B*tch, how dare you say that? How could the noble Consort Xuan have an affair with her husband’s elder brother? Do you want to die? How dare you make up such a lie?” Mdm Chen was the first to react. She pointed at the maidservant and started to scold her. The look on her face was as angry as it could be.

She even turned around and said to Auntie Qing, “Auntie Qing, how dare this lowly servant slander Consort Xuan like that? You’d better take her away and beat her to death so as not to stain our ears. It will be even worse if it gets out.”

It meant that she wanted Auntie Qing to kill the maidservant!

If the maidservant really died like this, how could Mo Xuetong explain it clearly? The truth was right in front of her. Even the most important witness had been killed. How could the Emperor tolerate Mo Xuetong?

“Somebody!” Auntie Qing, who could deal with matters with great tact, immediately accepted Mdm Chen’s suggestion and was about to give the order.

“Auntie Qing, it’s really His Highness. It’s really Her Lady who asked me to hide it. There are also a few letters... They were all sent by King Chu to Her Lady... Her Lady said that it’s inconvenient to take them to King Xuan’s Manor when she got married, so she asked me to hide them under these books. Anyway, Her Lady will go home from time to time, so it’s very convenient for her to get anything she wants.”

Seeing that Auntie Qing really asked someone to come, the maidservant shouted hurriedly. It seemed that she was incoherent, but she spilled the beans. All the madams present looked at Mo Xuetong suspiciously.

At the same time, Auntie Qing’s old maidservants who did rough jobs had already rushed in. They grabbed the little maidservant to drag her out.

The maidservant screamed and struggled while crying for Mo Xuetong’s help!

“Stop.” Mo Xuetong finally opened her mouth and said lightly. Mo Ye, who was standing beside her, did not say anything, but she came over and pushed these old maidservants away. As she was a martial artist and was angry at this time. she walked over and pushed the old maidservants off balance. Two of them even bumped into a cabinet, making a loud bang. The room suddenly became eerily quiet.

“Auntie Qing, this is my room. You’ve overstepped the power!” Mo Xuetong smiled and looked up at Auntie Qing with a cold smile on her lip corners. It was Auntie Qing and Mdm Chen, who were making a fuss. They were desired to stir up trouble.

“My Lady, I...” Auntie Qing looked embarrassed when she heard the scolding. She did not expect Mo Xuetong to be so calm even at this point. She was only a concubine and not an official mistress of the manor. Furthermore, Mo Xuetong was Consort Xuan. She could not make a decision for her!

Mo Xuetong’s words reminded everyone of her identity. They all looked at her suspiciously. They did not think so when it was noisy earlier, but now they realized that Auntie Qing had made a loud noise today. Even though she was a concubine of the Mo Manor, she did not have any say in front of Mo Xuetong.

Mo Xuetong’s words made Auntie Qing unable to utter a single word. She could only feel hatred in her heart. She gritted her teeth and lowered her head. Mo Xuetong was just struggling now. The evidence was clear and irrefutable. She would like to see how Mo Xuetong would turn the table. She had plotted so carefully and complicatedly that she didn’t believe Mo Xuetong would be able to resolve the situation!

“My Lady, Auntie Qing did it for your own good...” Mdm Chen’s voice grew smaller and smaller under Mo Xuetong’s cold gaze. In the end, she became silent.

“Madam Yu, is Auntie Qing doing this for my own good? Why don’t I know? I wonder if you can explain it to me. Is Auntie Qing really doing this for my own good?” Mo Xuetong’s smile was cold and mocking. “Madam Yu, you are so enthusiastic today. Thank you for helping me so painstakingly.”

Who was Mdm Chen? She was Yu Feng’s wife, and Yu Feng was Auntie Fang’s biological brother. Auntie Fang had killed the legal wife of the Mo Manor and then was discovered. In the end, even she and her daughter had been removed from the family. The Yu Manor had also lost their reputation. Everyone knew that the Yu family’s girls were vicious and did not want to marry them.

In this case, it would be great if Mdm Chen didn’t take pleasure in Mo Xuetong’s misfortune. How could she protect Mo Xuetong’s reputation? In a fight in the backyard, there must be something strange about things going wrong. Most of the people here were smart. Looking at the calm face of Consort Xuan who didn’t panic at all, and thinking about Mdm Chen’s enthusiasm just now, they wondered if there was something wrong with it!

The room became more and more silent, and everyone stood aside and listened quietly to what would happen next.

“My Lady, I...”

“Which yard do you work in?” Mo Xuetong interrupted Mdm Chen’s explanation and turned to look at the maidservant who was kneeling on the ground kowtowing and begging for mercy.

“My Lady, My Lady, how can you forget me? I work in your yard, Honghua... Don’t tell me that you really don’t want to save me and don’t even want to recognize me?”

“Mo Lan?” Mo Xuetong ignored Honghua’s words and turned to look at Mo Lan.

Mo Lan understood. She took two steps forward and said loudly, “Honghua, a third-class maidservant in Qingwei Garden. She came to Qingwei Garden not long before My Lady got married. She has never come to your room, so it’s normal that My Lady can’t recognize her.”

She was just a third-class maidservant, a little maidservant in the manor. She usually did chores in the courtyard and could not get close to the mistress. It was normal for Mo Xuetong to not recognize her. Masters would recognize all the lowest-class servants in the manor. Furthermore, Mo Xuetong was the lady in the boudoir. Some people paid attention to the fact that the third-class maidservant had been assigned to Qingwei Garden not long before Consort Xuan got married.

Then she was even more unfamiliar with her mistress.

“Tell me, why didn’t I entrust this kind of thing to my trusted first maidservant? Instead, I thought highly of you, a third-class maidservant who has just come to my yard, and asked you to do such a secretive thing?” Mo Xuetong looked down at the maidservant named Honghua with a cold smile on her face. She wanted to see how those people planned to make their statement consistent.

“I don’t know. My Lady, you said that I am a sincere person... and this kind of thing... Sister Mo Lan and the others... will be suspected...” Honghua stuttered as she tried to defend herself.

“How dare you lie? My Lady, when dealing with such a maidservant, she won’t tell the truth if you don’t beat her up. Do you want to tie her up and beat her first?” After Auntie Qing was reprimanded, she didn’t dare to make a decision on her own, so she suggested to Mo Xuetong.

If Mo Xuetong really agreed, she would get someone to drag Honghua out and beat her to death. At that time, there would be no evidence. Then how would Mo Xuetong defend herself? Of course, if Mo Xuetong did not agree, she had another means. It would be enough for Mo Xuetong to be doomed. As such, Auntie Qing knew that this suggestion would make Mo Xuetong unhappy, but she did say it out loud.

“Auntie Qing, it was really Her Lady who asked me to hide it. It was really Her Lady. Without Her Lady’s order, how would I dare to do such a thing? Besides, as a little maidservant, how could I do such a thing? How could King Chu take a fancy to a servant like me and leave these private messages to me!”

When she heard that Auntie Qing insisted on dragging her down and torturing her, Honghua was so frightened that she fell to the ground. Then she cried and explained.

“As a maidservant, you’re trying to frame Consort Xuan. You really don’t know how to write the word ‘death’. How dare you say that Her Lady asked you to hide it? Do you have any evidence?” Auntie Qing responded very quickly again. She slammed her hand on the table and looked as if she wanted to tear the maidservant to pieces.

“I... I...” Maybe Honghua was really anxious as she stammered. Suddenly, a light flashed across her eyes and she shouted anxiously, “Yes, Auntie Qing, I have evidence. I have kept the evidence.”

There was evidence? There was really evidence!

Everyone present was stunned. They had thought that the concubine of the Mo Manor and Mdm Chen were too ardent and seemed to be eager for instant benefits. However, what was going on now?

“Where did you get the evidence?” Auntie Qing once again asked hurriedly before the others could react.

“I have... I was worried... worried that Her Lady would push me out in the future... So I hid a few letters secretly and sent them to the Qin Manor. Those letters were in a small gift box sent to the Qin Manor by the Mo Manor. The box was sealed. I, I also left a golden bracelet that Her Lady gave me. Auntie Qing, if you don’t believe me, you can check it out. All of them are private letters written by Her Lady to King Chu.”

The maidservant seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and began to argue loudly.

The Qin Manor? Everyone present knew the Qin Manor who had a good relationship with the Mo Manor. Furthermore, they also had Mo Xuetong’s bracelet as evidence. Furthermore, it was not like the current letter. One could tell that it was a man’s handwriting, so it should be written by a man. If they discovered that Mo Xuetong wrote it herself, she would really have to die to atone for her sins.

What was more, even if she died, she would be guilty and be cursed all over her body!

Mo Xuetong looked coldly at Auntie Qing who was in a hurry. Indeed, her trick linked up with the one in the Qin Manor. However, these people did not expect Mdm Yu had already ruined the “evidence”. Mdm Yu valued the Qin Manor and her sons’ future and lives more than Yu Sirong and Auntie Fang’s revenge.

This was supposed to be a normal choice for a normal person. No matter how Yu Feng had tricked Mdm Yu to accept the trick and take the responsibility, it was already missing. No matter how stupid Mdm Yu was, she knew what was more important. Yu Sirong had once worked in King Chu’s Manor and served Ling Rui’er, so it was easy for her to get the words Feng Yuxuan wrote.

It was not a big deal to find a way to create evidence. As for Mo Xuetong’s handwriting, since Auntie Qing was in the Mo Manor, it would be easy for her to find some characters she wrote in the past. Mo Xuetong had once managed the manor affairs for a while, and so had Auntie Qing. It was very common for her to take advantage of the coincidence and take the words Mo Xuetong wrote out.

“The Qin Manor, are you talking about our manor?” Suddenly a question came from outside the door in a tone of surprise. As the curtain was lifted, Mdm Yu of the Qin Manor appeared at the door.
