Nanny Gong took the tray and walked to Xiao Liu, squatted down, put down the tray, lifted the silk cloth, revealing rows of bamboo sticks on the tray.

Rong Enqing just gasped. Oh my god, I see these things again!

Xiu Zhang had used these things to deal with Xiao Huan before. Now Madam Gong was going to use these things to deal with Xiao Liu again?

Rong Enqing was thinking so when he saw Xiao Liu's face change drastically when he saw these things. The next moment, a smell of urine came.

Xiao Liu was so scared that he peed his pants.

Rong Enqing looked at Xiao Liu's exposed hands. His fingers were clean and tidy, with no signs of being pricked by bamboo sticks. However, Xiao Liu's terrified look was as if he had tasted the bamboo sticks.

Just when Rong Enqing was confused, Nanny Gong solved her doubts.

"Miss Xiao Liu, your feet have already tasted the taste of this bamboo stick. I think you don't want to taste it again with your hands, right?" Madam Gong picked up a bamboo stick, pulled Xiao Liu's fingers, and began to gesture nonchalantly, "Miss, it's better for you to tell me what you know. Otherwise..."

While speaking softly, Nanny Gong suddenly inserted a bamboo stick into the nail of Xiao Liu's right index finger.

"Ah——!" A sudden scream frightened everyone in the hall.

"I'll tell you, I'll tell you!" Xiao Liu held his hands, his whole body shaking like a sieve.

"I really didn't poison the Second Wife's medicine!"

Xiao Liu had just said a word when she saw Madam Gong take out a thicker bamboo stick. She was so scared that her face turned pale and she quickly said, "At the beginning, the old lady... Aunt Jiang, Aunt Jiang asked me to poison the second wife, so that she could kill her and put the blame on the Marquis's Mansion.

"But the second master disagreed, saying that poisoning the second wife would be a mistake and not worth it. He had a more comprehensive plan. So he found a doctor to lie to the second master, saying that the second wife was poisoned.

"And he asked me to guide the Second Young Master to put all the blame on the Marquis' Mansion. Because the Second Madam's courtyard was taken care of by the First Madam, it was natural for the First Madam to be the one who poisoned her."

Yun Shi looked at Xiao Liu in astonishment, "So, mother wasn't poisoned? You and that doctor teamed up to deceive me?"

Xiao Liu glanced at Yun Shi with trembling eyes, and was immediately frightened back by the murderous look in his eyes.

At this time, Rong Enqing asked sternly, "So, Yun Hao deliberately misled Yun Shi?"

Xiao Liu nodded quickly.

"What's the purpose? What's his purpose in doing this?"

"I don't know." Xiao Liu shook her head. "I was just following orders. Madam, I just said a few words and did nothing else! Please spare my life, Madam! Madam, my family is in the hands of Aunt Jiang, and I have no choice but to listen to them. I was forced to do this, Madam!"

Rong Enqing waved her hand and signaled to Madam Gong: "Take the person away."

Nanny Gong quickly called the maid outside the door to come in and drag the person away.

"Madam, please spare my life! Second Madam, please save me! Second Young Master, I was forced to do this, please save me!..."

When being dragged away, Xiao Liu kept crying and begging for mercy, but unfortunately no one felt sorry for her.

Rong Enqing looked at Yun and said in a cold tone: "Song was not poisoned! Everything is just a trap set by Yun Hao for you! As for the purpose, I think you should know it better than me, right?"

Yun Shi was dumbfounded when Xiao Liu said that Song's poisoning was just a conspiracy against him.

The Doctor Hu's hesitation and complicated look that he saw at that time... turned out to be the bait to lure him into the trap?

Xiao Liu mentioned to him several times that the people sent by Zhang were always secretly watching her making medicine. Were they all false accusations?

But he was fooled like a fool!

"No, even if the story of mother being poisoned is false, then the fact that you forced mother to send my younger sister to the palace must be true, right? And you say it was mother's own request? Haha, I can see how much mother loves my younger sister. Moreover, my younger sister is only three years old. How could mother take the initiative to ask to send my younger sister to the palace? Since you forced mother like this, can't I seek justice for mother and my younger sister?"

Yun Shi is still making excuses for his behavior, still struggling desperately, and unwilling to face his mistakes.

"What you mean by seeking justice is poisoning Yun Ye and his mother?" Rong Enqing said sarcastically.

"So what?" Yun Shi insisted.

"With you alone, can you get a poison that kills instantly? Can you quietly put the poison into those two bowls of glutinous rice balls?"

"How difficult is that? It's just a matter of spending more money!"

"Oh, so you still have a lot of money to spend? You are an eight-year-old kid, where did you get the money from?"

"I……"

Just when Yun Shi was about to argue, Song Shi had already burst into tears.

Every word Rong Enqing said reminded her that Yun Shi was just a knife being used by others!

She misled Yun Shi, then used him to poison Yun Ye and his mother, and finally she took the blame.

Not only did he get rid of the young marquis Yun Ye, he could also get rid of his annoying wife.

In the end, Yun Hao only lost a son who was a troublemaker and was against him. But he still had two sons! Moreover, he was still young, and if he wanted a son, he would have plenty of opportunities in the future!

Without Yun Ye, he would have another chance to become Marquis Shun'an!

Without her, he could naturally marry the daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and rely on the big tree of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion!

So, he said, "Poisoning is prone to mistakes," but he still asked people to cooperate with Yun Shi in poisoning!

So, he said "it's not worth it to poison her" because he has bigger ambitions!

After figuring everything out, Song reached out and pulled Yun Shi behind her, then, in Yun Shi's bewildered gaze, she kowtowed heavily to Rong Enqing.

"Mother, this is all my fault! If it weren't for me, Yun Shi wouldn't have fallen for the scheme of Jiang's mother and son and poisoned Yun Ye and my sister-in-law. I am willing to die to atone for my sins. I only ask mother to spare his life because Yun Shi is still young and was being used by others!"

"Mother! What are you talking about?" Yun Shi looked at Song in disbelief, his eyes full of shock and astonishment, as well as overflowing panic.

Song smiled at him, "Don't act impulsively in the future. Listen to your elder brother in everything. Mother sent your younger sister to the palace to find a way out for her. When mother is gone, you four brothers and sisters must unite and help each other. Don't let outsiders instigate any grudges. If possible, help mother take good care of your younger sister and don't let her be bullied!..."

Song said a lot of random things, and it was obvious that he was leaving his last words.

It was only then that Yun Shi really panicked. He didn't know when he was in tears.
