A Blessed Daughter

Chapter 528 I want to report to the official

"What is Princess Rui talking about? I don't understand. I don't know what I need to explain." Bai Shi felt guilty and did not dare to look Wei Ruo in the eyes.

Wei Ruo continued: "You seem to know that King Yu's concubine was poisoned. I guess you gave the medicine, right? You harmed King Yu's concubine, what are your intentions?"

"I..." Bai Shi felt panicked when Wei Ruo saw her, "It's not...it's not me...how could I harm King Yu's concubine?"

"It wasn't you, then why did you know that King Yu's side concubine had been drugged? How could you have known in advance that there was a man in Yifang Pavilion and something would happen if you came late?" Wei Ruo asked.

Wei Ruo's question left Bai Shi unable to answer.

Yun quickly walked up to Bai and grabbed Bai's clothes: "Why do you want to hurt my Wanwan? What on earth do you want to do?"

"I didn't! I didn't want to harm King Yu's concubine! I originally wanted to..." Bai Shi looked at Wei Ruo and almost blurted out the truth.

"This is a misunderstanding! Misunderstanding! I used the medicine myself!" Bai changed his words.

 “Do you use it yourself?”

"I...the love between me and my master is a private matter of the boudoir and should not be talked about outside!" Mrs. Bai did not care about her face in order to protect herself.

 It is better to lose some face than to lose your life.

“Then how did this medicine get into Wanwan’s hands?” Yun asked.

"That... that's because Prince Yu's side concubine wants to use it... between her and Prince Yu... As a mother, you should know that the side concubine is in a difficult situation in Prince Yu's palace, and she always has to find some way to compete for favor. How did I know? How could such an accident happen so smoothly?"

Mr. Bai's mind worked very quickly, and when faced with Mr. Yun's questioning, he actually came up with an almost perfect explanation in a short period of time.

"You...you...you are so confused!" Yun let go of Bai's clothes.

　　　Mr. Bai breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Wei Ruo spoke again: "I don't think the second aunt is telling the truth. If that's true, how can we explain the man in Yifang Pavilion? It's a coincidence that Prince Yu's side concubine mistakenly took the aphrodisiac. Could it be that the man in Yifang Pavilion is also a coincidence?"

Bai Shi immediately explained: "This person was invited to prune the flowers and trees in Yifang Pavilion. If Princess Rui doesn't believe it, she can ask the housekeeper in the mansion if there is such an arrangement."

Mr. Bai had already considered this matter, so she had the excuse early on.

The man kneeling on the ground also quickly admitted: "Yes, the villain is here to prune flowers and trees. I just heard someone screaming in pain in the room. I thought it was danger, so I came in to check. Madams and ladies, please be aware of the villain's nature." I have no harmful intentions and dare not covet the beauty of this noble man. I just want to save people!"

The man has been bribed a long time ago. Although the person who enters Yifang Pavilion has changed now, his words have been planned out a long time ago.

If it was Wei Ruo who was tricked today, she would not dare to say anything about it, and others would not look into it further.

Wei Ruo laughed and said, "I see, this is a good show arranged by my second aunt for me."

“I don’t understand what Princess Rui is saying,” Bai said with a guilty conscience.

"Are you wondering in your heart, how could it be that I was lying there instead of Wei Qingwan?" Wei Ruodao said.

　　　Bai was suddenly startled, her eyes widened and widened.

“Your cup of jasmine tea was meant for me to drink, but it accidentally got into Wei Qingwan’s mouth.” Wei Ruodao.

Lin Fang is not only good at changing things, her hands are also very fast. It is easy for her to adjust the tea in front of Wei Ruo when no one is paying attention.

Then she went to a deserted corner of the garden to change into Wei's maid's clothes, mixed in with the crowd, and poured Wei Ruo's cup of tea into the teapot while the maid pouring tea for Wei Qingwan wasn't paying attention.

"I...I don't know what you are talking about..." Bai Shi turned her head away, not daring to look into Wei Ruo's eyes at all.

"You don't have to admit it, but I will definitely find out the matter." Wei Ruo said and turned around to give the order: "Wei Bai intends to harm King Yu's concubine and has evil intentions. Take her to see the official!"

What? See an official?

Bai's face suddenly turned white.

 Soon after, Lin Fang and Xiumei came forward to get the person.

Xiumei held Bai Shi, and Lin Fang helped Wei Qingwan up on the couch.

Wei Qingwan was still unconscious at the moment, so she let Lin Fang help her out.

 “Stop!” Yun shouted loudly.

She quickly came to Wei Ruo: "You can't report it to the official. Once you see the official, your sister's reputation will be ruined! Not only can't you report today's matter to the official, but you can't say a word to the outside world either!"

“It’s impossible to find out the truth of the matter without reporting it to the official.”

 “If you make such a big fuss, how will your sister behave in the future? Even if you don’t get along with her, you can’t harm her like this! You are trying to kill her!”

"Second aunt didn't tell the truth, and I want the truth." Wei Ruo replied.

"Absolutely not!" Yun's attitude was decisive, his face was ashen, and his eyes were full of anger.

 Mother and daughter are equally determined and incompatible with each other, making the servants around them afraid to express their anger.

At this moment, Mrs. Wei, who heard the news, hurried over with the support of her personal maid.

　　The two guards guarding the courtyard door quickly opened the door.

As soon as Mrs. Wei entered the door, she saw servants kneeling all over the yard. At the door of the main house, Yun and Wei Ruo stared at each other angrily, refusing to give in to each other.

Mrs. Wei quickly walked to the door of the room and looked into the room. Wei Qingwan's face was flushed and she fell unconscious on the couch. Beside her, Mrs. Bai's face was as white as paper.

"What's going on?" Mrs. Wei asked anxiously.

Neither Yun nor Wei Ruo spoke, and Cuiping on the side had no choice but to tell the truth about what happened.

 “Absurd! Ridiculous!” Mrs. Wei was very angry.

Mrs. Wei angrily scolded Mrs. Bai: "You can just mess around at home. How dare you mess around when it concerns Princess Rui and Prince Yu's concubine? You bastard!"

Mrs. Bai was frightened and said hurriedly: "Mother, I am wronged, I just want to help the concubine!"

Wei Ruo said to Mrs. Wei: "Grandma, I am suspicious about what happened today. I suspect that the second aunt wanted to drug me and arranged for a man to destroy my reputation. I will take her to the Yamen and let the Yamen investigate. It’s clear.”

"Princess Rui, calm down! This matter is indeed suspicious, but if it gets bigger, not only the ignorant woman Bai and Prince Yu's concubine will be hurt, but also the entire Wei family! Grandma promises you will find a way to investigate the matter thoroughly. If Bai If she really meant to harm someone, I won't let her go!" Mrs. Wei comforted her.

"What if I have to do this? Can grandma stop me?" Wei Ruo asked.

In the courtyard, all the maids following Wei Ruolai lined up. As long as Wei Ruolai gave an order, they would take action.

These people are not ordinary maids. They are all skilled in martial arts. The maid guards of ordinary wealthy families are no match for them.
