"What's going on? Tell me about it."

The Marquis sat upright and said.

Granny Liu spoke first. She pointed at Lin Qianqian and Gu Zhao and said, "We caught Aunt Lin having an affair with this servant, but she refused to admit it!"

"Moreover, she, a concubine, was disrespectful to the Crown Prince's wife."

When Mrs. Liu said this, she lowered her body and kowtowed heavily to the ground.

"Please investigate carefully, my Lord! You must not let Aunt Lin off easily for having an affair with someone else!"

At this time, Yu stood up and said, "This Lin is really arrogant. She can say ten things to you."

"I think she doesn't understand the rules of this Marquis' Mansion at all."

Lin Qianqian didn't expect that speaking for herself and arguing for herself would actually be considered as talking back?

She is definitely not a cowardly person who would not say a word when being wrongly accused.

She asked, "I have been wronged, can't I defend myself? Would defending myself be considered talking back? Would it be considered arrogant?"

"Which of my questions is not on point?"

How funny.

Perhaps the kind of concubine who is scolded and behaves like a coward is the well-behaved concubine in their eyes.

But, if you are a coward, will they show mercy to you?

No, they are just happier eating human flesh and drinking human blood.

Granny Liu and Cheng Jiayao exchanged glances without revealing any trace of their expressions. Granny Liu continued, "When we came in, we saw Aunt Lin naked in this room with this servant. She is so shameless."

"Also, the embroidered shoes in Er Yue's hand are Lin's. The clothes belonged to this servant, and she tore them into tatters. She is destroying the evidence here."

Mrs. Liu shook her head and snorted pretentiously.

Even if you have a hundred mouths to defend yourself, it depends on whether the Marquis believes it or not, and how the Marquis will deal with it?

If the Marquis believes it, even if you didn't have an affair, you are still guilty of adultery.

The Marquis asked coldly, "How do you know that these two people are having an affair? And not something else?"

Old Lady Liu shouted, "My Lord! The evidence is right in front of you. Could it be fake? How dare I deceive you!"

"I guarantee this with my thirty years of service in the Marquis' Mansion. Not a single word I say is false!"

As soon as Liu Pozi's old face spoke, the others who didn't know the details also began to believe it.

The Marquis raised his voice, "Even if they were having an affair, why were those two people caught by you today? Why didn't anyone report that they were in contact with each other before?"

Cheng Jiayao spoke up at this time.

She spoke slowly.

"My Lord, I heard from the servants before that Aunt Lin and this servant are inseparable."

"When they went to the East Garden, he followed her everywhere. Even when she went riding and went to the stables, I don't know what they did in the stables, but they were always talking and laughing, and they were very close."

"If it were an ordinary master, she would definitely not be close to her servants. Servants are servants, and masters are masters. But Aunt Lin is different. She says that everyone is equal and everyone is born the same. It's not the first time that she has quarreled with servants without knowing the limits."

Cheng Jiayao's words were absolutely flawless.

There's nothing wrong with that.

He also deliberately used Lin Qianqian's previous words as evidence, which made the credibility of the accusation even higher.

Lin Qianqian felt a little unwilling.

Is she going to be forced to put this hat on?

Almost all the servants in the mansion are the heroine's spies, and since she usually gives them a lot of benefits, she has bribed almost everyone.

Everyone spoke with the same opinion and insisted on their decision. How could she break the situation?

From the very beginning, her reputation was completely ruined.

No matter how outrageous the things that happened to her were, others thought that it was something that could be done by Lin Qianqian, a lunatic who had betrayed the orthodoxy and had no regard for the law.

Lin Qianqian met her eyes and said, "You are being so ambiguous. So, if you want to catch an adulterer, you have to catch him in bed, right? Just because the master and the servant are together, you can judge that they are having an affair?"

"Then why didn't anyone else come forward and say they saw me and that servant hugging and cuddling?"

Cheng Jiayao said with a smile, "The affair must have happened secretly in a corner where no one was around."

"How could it be seen by others for no reason?"

"It won't do you any good if this scandal is exposed, right?"

Lin Qianqian was almost laughing out of anger, "You're right. But I won't do anything that's not good for me. Why would I give up wealth and glory and leave myself with such a big bomb!"

Yu pointed at Lin Qianqian angrily, "Look, she still refuses to admit it!"

"I knew that sooner or later, she would do something stupid! It turned out to be true!"

"I won't talk about what happened last time. This time, he actually had an affair with a servant. The evidence is overwhelming and right in front of you, yet you're still being stubborn!"

"Besides, how could she admit to such a thing?"

Suddenly, two old women rushed in from outside the door, and they knelt on the ground and kowtowed together.

"How could Aunt Lin do such a thing with a servant? She definitely didn't do that."

Granny Tian said, "She and Xiao Zhao were patrolling the yard, and Granny Wang and I were with them. Nothing they did could be hidden from our eyes. She would never do such a thing."

Wang Po kowtowed and clasped her hands together sincerely, "My Lord, My Lord. We have known Aunt Lin for a while. She is a bit uninhibited in her words and deeds, but she is still very taboo about men and women."

"Xiao Zhao is also a well-behaved servant. He always obeys his master's orders. Moreover, the Marquis' Mansion has been kind to him. How could he do such a stupid thing? He would never ruin his own future!"

When the Marquis heard this, he also agreed with it.

He nodded, "That's right, how could Xiao Zhao ruin his own future?"

From the very beginning, when he saw Gu Zhao, he knew there was no possibility between the two of them.

He knew Gu Zhao very well.

The Marquis cleared his throat and said to Lin Qianqian, "Lin, do you dare to swear on your life that you have never done such a thing?"

Lin Qianqian's heart skipped a beat, knowing that the Marquis was trying to give her a way out.

She said, "I swear, I am willing to use my life as a guarantee."

The Marquis stroked his beard and said, "Isn't this a little unreasonable?"

He looked around the room and said, "How can they choose to have an affair in their own room? What does the boss who manages the stables say? Summon him over."

"Yes."

The boss is here.

After he came in, he first kowtowed to the Marquis.

Then he began to speak, "My Lord, I dare not hide it."

"I saw Aunt Lin and Xiao Zhao feeding the horses and chopping hay together in the stable. He also taught Aunt Lin how to ride a horse. The two of them behaved intimately, not like master and servant at all."

"Moreover, this Xiao Zhao secretly hid Aunt Lin's embroidered shoes and secretly slept with them at night."
