Taking the blame for the fake daughter: After being released from prison, she went on a killing spre

General's Mansion——

General Pei heard from his servants that the culprit who killed his son not only went to the procuratorate to beat drums to appeal for justice, but also claimed that he could cure his son.

The expression on his face changed from initial anger to suspicion.

Even the chief judge of the Imperial Medical Bureau was helpless in treating Pei Zongyao's illness. How could she, an unknown concubine in the harem, be so confident?

Such arrogance must have ulterior motives.

But the general's wife didn't think so. "Yao'er is in such a state now, how can it be any worse? Why don't we give it a try? If it is a trick, we will risk the honor of the general's mansion and make the Minister of Finance pay the price!"

It’s not that the general’s wife trusts Su Yunling, but there is really no other way.

General Pei sighed, hesitated for a long time, and finally agreed.

At this time, in the residence of the Minister of Revenue, as the guard rushed into the main hall, all the Su family members who were having lunch put down their chopsticks.

"Sir, the second young lady... the second young lady has knocked on the drum to report the incident, and the government is already interrogating her."

Su Zhaohong slammed the table and stood up upon hearing this, "Rebellious girl! If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have asked the prince to bail her out. I should have let her die in there."

The three Su brothers and Su Yueying all changed their expressions.

Su Zhaohong had no objection to Su Yunling taking the blame for Su Yueying. Instead, he thought they were doing the right thing.

Those who want to achieve great things must know how to make decisive choices. Su Yueying is the future queen, so she must not be tainted.

Letting Su Yunling take the blame and go to jail can not only preserve Su Yueying's reputation, but also give an explanation to the General's Mansion.

This way we can have the best of both worlds, which is great.

So after the incident, he immediately expressed his position to the General's Mansion that he would never tolerate or cover up for anyone.

He even did not allow anyone in the mansion to visit him in prison. As long as it would not affect the Su family, he was determined to let Su Yunling fend for himself.

"You shameless little bitch, Jingyi, come with me to take a look. Tie her up first and bring her back before you deal with her!"

"Yes, Dad." Su Jingyi, the eldest son of the Su family, left the table and followed Su Zhaohong.

Su Yueying got up to see her father and brother off. When she came back, she saw that her second and third brothers looked unhappy.

"Although it was my fault that my second sister suffered injustice this time, I didn't expect that she would be so disregarding of the overall situation. If this gets out into the world, our entire Su family will be pushed to the forefront." Su Yueying frowned unhappily.

Su Yunling had always acted weak and cowardly in the past, with almost no sense of existence. Su Yueying had never expected that she would suddenly dare to do such a thing.

Underestimate her.

Su Sanlang slammed the table in anger, "Su Yunling is too ignorant. This is about the family's reputation, what does personal gain and loss matter? She only cares about herself. Otherwise, why do they say that a bastard's daughter born to a whore is not presentable?"

"The most urgent thing now is whether she will betray Yingying. There was the strange phenomenon from the sky before, and now Su Yunling has suddenly done this. This will do more harm than good to Yingying's reputation."

Su Erlang is the most knowledgeable, wisest and calmest among the three brothers.

Su Yueying's eyes showed sorrow, and Su Sanlang immediately comforted her: "Yingying, don't worry. Even if Su Yunling dares to betray you, she has no basis for accusing. We have already arranged everything, and no one will believe her. When she comes back, I will definitely punish her and vent my anger on you."

Although Su Sanlang's literary talent is slightly inferior to his two elder brothers, he is the only one among the three brothers who is good at martial arts.

"Let's send someone to inform Prince Xiao! It would be best to silence Su Yunling before this matter gets out of hand."

When Su Zhaohong and his son rushed to the yamen, they ran into General Pei who was carrying his son.

As the second-rank General Guarding the Country, his official rank was one level higher than the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. In addition, the Su family was in the wrong in the matter of Pei Zongyao, so Su Zhaohong and his son took the initiative to pay their respects to General Pei.

"General Pei."

"Hmph..." General Pei snorted coldly and didn't even bother to look at the father and son.

The two men looked at Pei Zongyao who was carried into the court, with confusion on their faces, but when they saw Su Yunling kneeling inside, their expressions instantly turned into anger.

"This evil girl..."

"Silence! No one is allowed to make noise in the court."

Su Zhaohong stepped forward and was about to explode, but was stopped by Lord Zhao, who was in charge of the case.

Although Su Zhaohong held the third-rank official rank, he did not have the privilege of disrupting court proceedings in the solemn procuratorate.

Su Yunling looked at the father and son who were staring at her almost to the point of staring a hole in her, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly.

The fun hasn't even begun yet, and you can't stand it?

Xiao Nanchuan, who received the news, also rushed over in person. He was wearing a white robe with cloud patterns and a golden filigree crown on his head. There was a murderous look on his stern face.

Xiao Nanchuan's father, Prince Rui, was the younger brother of Emperor Jingzhao. After he became a vassal at the age of fifteen, he had been doing his utmost to assist Emperor Jingzhao in ascending the throne.

Therefore, Emperor Jing Zhao always trusted his younger brother, who was the only one among the princes who was not feared.

As the eldest son of Prince Rui, Xiao Nanchuan will inherit the throne in the future, and his status and power can be imagined. So when Lord Zhao saw Xiao Nanchuan appear, he ordered someone to add a chair for him in the court.

General Pei and Su Zhaohong also sat in the hall and listened.

They want to see what Su Yunling's incident can change.

A helpless and lowly person would not be so foolish as to think that he could redress his grievances by beating the drum and enduring thirty strokes of the cannon in the court, right?

At this time, several layers of people had gathered outside the yamen to watch the case being solved.

Everyone consciously kept quiet, and all cast inquiring eyes at Su Yunling and Pei Zongyao who was unconscious on the stretcher.

Lord Zhao once again asked Su Yunling in court, "Can Miss Su really wake up Mr. Pei, the victim of this case?"

"Yes, my lord."

Su Zhaohong objected on the spot: "Master Zhao, this rebellious girl has been raised in the harem since she was a child. She is not familiar with the art of medicine. We must not let her take human lives lightly!"

Looking down from above, Xiao Nanchuan narrowed his eyes and looked at Su Yunling, with a sharp and cold look in his eyes.

Even the people watching outside the court were talking about it.

"Does the second young lady of Minister Su's family know medical skills? I've never heard of her before!"

"Who knows? General Pei has been unconscious for more than three months. I'm afraid even gods can't save him, right?"

"One look at this Second Miss Su shows that she has suffered a lot. I'm afraid she is just trying to save people and is really looking for revenge..."

"Silence!" Lord Zhao once again suppressed the noise outside the court.

After calming down, General Pei, with a solemn and murderous aura, frowned and looked at the thin and embarrassed Su Yunling, with a warning tone:

"You'd better be able to cure my son. Otherwise, I will report it to His Majesty and I will make your Su family pay with their lives!"

After a moment of silence, Su Yunling bowed solemnly to General Pei and said, "General, if you just promise me that you won't interfere with my acupuncture, I will guarantee with my father and brother's lives that I will be able to save General Pei." Otherwise, please wipe out the entire Su family.

"Evil creature!" Su Zhaohong was so angry that his eyes almost popped out.

Su Yunling ignored him and turned to the doctor behind General Pei and said, "Please lend me your silver needles."

She twisted the slender silver needle between her fingertips, and after getting the right measure, she aimed the tip of the needle at Pei Zongyao's Baihui acupoint.

Everyone held their breath as they watched the needle in her hand pierce the acupuncture point little by little. It was so quiet inside and outside the courtroom that one could hear a pin drop.

The silver needle twisted on Su Yunling's fingertips for dozens of times, and General Pei's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

The imperial physicians and traveling doctors that had been consulted before all used this method - acupuncture with silver needles.

But it was of no use, it seemed he had been fooled.

"It's moving! The young master's eyes are moving..." The court doctor's exclamation made everyone excited.
