The wind howled, the rain poured down, and the sky and the earth were completely white.

The dark interior is filled with shadows.

A slender and thin girl knelt on the ground, her face covered with tears, crying sadly, "Father, I haven't done anything, you have to believe me."

She is the only legitimate daughter of Lanzhou Governor Jian Xiude. Jian Qingxue is seventeen years old, at the age when she is as young and beautiful as a flower.

Jian Xiude's forehead was filled with veins and he was furious. He threw the sachet embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water in his hand and said, "Shut up, what is this? The evidence is solid, how dare you quibble? You are the daughter of a dignified chief minister, and you are talking to your foreigner."

You give and receive privately, and do scandalous things that disgrace the family tradition, you..."

His face was livid, and his eyes were full of anger. He didn't expect that his only legitimate daughter would do such a scandal, which made him so angry. If this matter spread, the Jian family's reputation would be completely ruined, and his career would be completely ruined.

How can he tolerate this?

Jian Qingxue stared at the familiar sachet, as if struck by a bolt from the blue, she was stunned. It was indeed her embroidery, but...

There was a sharp pain in her heart, and her tears were like the water of the Yellow River bursting its banks. She kowtowed desperately, and her forehead was bruised and bloody, "Father, I didn't, I really didn't, you must believe me."

Jian Xiude kicked her away impatiently. She turned around helplessly, crawled to Ye's feet, and begged, "Second mother, please help me persuade my father, I..."

No matter how ignorant she is, she would never do such a scandal. Why doesn't her father believe her? She is really innocent!

Unexpectedly, Aunt Ye, who had always loved her, would angrily rebuke, "Xue'er, you are so disappointing to me. I love you so much and treat you as if you were dead, but how could you... be able to do such a shameless thing?"

How can you be worthy of me?"

Ye is the second aunt of the Jian family. She is the person Jian Xiude cares about and obeys her words.

Jian Qingxue was speechless, heartbroken, panic, nervousness, and fear all intertwined together, and she was so confused that she was at a loss. "No, no, no, I didn't do anything. I... don't know how this happened..."

She never went out or stepped outside the door. The only people she saw were close relatives at home, and she had no chance to see her outside husband. She had a docile temperament, followed the rules very much, respected her elders, and loved her younger siblings. She didn't dare to take more than a step, and she didn't even say a word.

How could she do such deviant things for fear of being laughed at by others if she dared to speak more?

Jian Xiude took a deep breath, and a strong murderous intent flashed in his eyes, "Nie Zhan, Wan'er, I'll leave this matter to you, and it must be done cleanly."

Aunt Ye was so happy that she bent her knees and blessed her health, "Yes, husband, don't worry."

Jian Xiude gave Qingxue a cold look, his eyes as cold as snow, like the cold whooshing northwest wind in the twelfth lunar month of winter, and he was disgusted.

Seeing her father walk away, Jian Qingxue's heart sank to the bottom, her whole body became cold, and she screamed in despair, "Father, father."

Did her father want to punish her? But she didn't do anything!

Her heart ached, tears welled up in her eyes, and she knelt down helplessly and kowtowed, "Er Niang, please help me, please say something nice to me..."

A gust of cold wind blew by, and the candlelight in the room flickered. The light became darker and darker. Aunt Ye had a straight face and a terrifying gloomy look in her eyes. "For the sake of our sympathy as mother and daughter, let you choose for yourself? Bai Ling? Or arsenic?"

Jian Qingxue's body softened and her eyes widened in disbelief. Do you want to kill her? "No, I am innocent. Er Niang, you must find out..."

Ye Shi smiled coldly and looked at her condescendingly, "What a fool. You still can't figure out the situation now. You haven't done anything, but you have to die."
