The capital city has been extremely busy these past two days. There has been nothing going on recently, but who would have thought that when the year is almost coming to an end, someone would be causing trouble at this time.

This time it is again related to the Yan Mansion, but the target this time is no longer Yan Mingjue, but his wife Su Qingwan.

This time, someone actually wanted to attack Su Qingwan. Fortunately, she was alert and saw through the plan early on. She sent her maid to lure the snake out of its hole that day, so she avoided being killed.

If this were the case alone, it would not be enough to make everyone so excited. What made them talk endlessly was that among the people who wanted to harm her was Su Qingwan's biological mother, now the wife of Lord Su, Su Qin.

This alone is enough to make people talk about it for a long time.

Shuntian Prefecture did not avoid the investigation this time, but generously released all the information.

Then everyone discovered that Su Qin actually played an important role in this matter.

According to her confession, she was caught by someone and without money, she turned her attention to her own daughter.

So, she and a group of people tried to trick Su Qingwan over.

Fortunately, Su Qingwan was alert and realized that something was wrong, so she did not go there in person, and thus the tragedy was prevented from happening.

As soon as this news came out, Su Qin was almost drowned in saliva.

Is this what the biological mother did?

He actually harmed his daughter in this way and even wanted to threaten her by destroying her reputation.

Su Qinshi didn't know that her reputation had already been ruined. She was the kind of person that people would spit on if she walked down the street. She was still being held in a cell in Shuntian Prefecture.

The jailer here didn't give her any courtesy just because she was an official's wife. She had been living a life worse than death these past two days.

She didn't dare to think about Su Qingwan anymore. Now she could only hope that Su Qinghe and Su Yucheng would be kind enough to come and rescue her.

It would be absolutely false to say that she didn't regret it. She has been regretting it so much these past two days.

If she had known this would be the outcome, she would never have done it.

She was really blinded by love that day, so why did she agree to it?

However, it was no use regretting now. Now, she could only pray in her heart that Su Yucheng would help her because of their many years of marriage.

What she didn't know was that Su Yucheng was in danger himself.

He was promoted to the position of cabinet minister as a substitute and had not made any achievements, so Emperor Xuanwu did not attach much importance to him.

It is said that he entered the cabinet, but in reality he was just sitting on the bench and had no real power.

Before, everyone was extra polite to him for Yan Mingjue's sake.

In the past two days, after the incident with Su Qin, the court officials kept their distance from him, fearing that they would be implicated. After all, everyone knew that Yan Mingjue favored Su Qingwan the most.

Su Qin actually dared to harm Su Qingwan like this. This matter will definitely not be let go.

Su Yucheng also knew this, so his scalp had been numb for the past two days. Even though he was nervous, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and go find Yan Mingjue.

"A good son-in-law..."

He was interrupted by Yan Mingjue just as he opened his mouth.

"Lord Su, it's better for you to call me Commander Yan."

Su Yucheng choked and was about to change his words, but then he heard Yan Mingjue say:

"My wife was frightened and has not been feeling well these past few days."

"I'm going back early to accompany her, so I won't say any more to you."

After saying that, he didn't even give Su Yucheng a chance to speak again. He turned around and left, leaving Su Yucheng alone there staring blankly.
