Su Yinyue didn't look at her, but instead looked at the broken pieces of porcelain vase beside her, with a look of distress.

All the things that can be displayed on the antique display shelf in the palace are good things, because it would be a pity if Zhu’s things were broken.

"There's a lot of room outside. Come on, let's talk outside."

Seeing that she was about to go out, the prefect hid behind his men and quietly pushed them, making them block the door.

Su Yinyue glared, "Why, you don't want your hand anymore?"

Everyone's breathing stopped and they quickly moved out of the way.

As soon as they retreated, the prefect at the back was pushed into a corner. Someone stepped on his feet several times. He grimaced in pain but dared not cry out.

If Su Yinyue heard his voice and remembered that there was a dog official here, he would be slapped again.

The sun was setting, and the earth, which had been exposed to the sun all day, was steaming. Aunt Yan, who was sitting alone in the side hall waiting, heard a long and faint noise not far away, and she felt inexplicably restless.

She looked at the sky, then at the maid waiting at the door, and made up her mind.

It had been three or four hours, and during this time she had looked for the maid five times, wanting to say goodbye to the princess before leaving the palace, but the maid always made the excuse that the princess was too busy.

There will be guards patrolling the Marquis' Mansion at night, so we can't wait any longer.

Thinking of this, Aunt Yan stood up and walked out of the side hall, "It's getting late. Since the princess is not free, I will come to visit next time."

Not far from the side hall, the noise became clearer.

"Princess, you are so brave to kill someone in front of me!"

"I won't sue you, stop hitting me!"

"Princess, I order you to stop!"

Princess, is Su Yinyue in trouble?

How can we miss her?

Aunt Yan perked up and walked quickly towards the source of the sound.

As soon as she entered the yard, she saw Su Yinyue dragging a woman with disheveled hair and wearing red clothes out of the room, and pressing the woman's head into the fireproof water tank placed in the yard.

The fireproof water tank is half a person's height, with two lotus plants simply planted inside, which serves both landscaping and fire prevention purposes.

"You still dare to negotiate with me, Zhu, don't you understand the current situation?"

Su Yinyue pressed the back of her head and said, "Let me clean your brain and wake you up!"

Zhu pressed the edge of the water tank with both hands, howling like a pig being slaughtered, veins popping out of his neck. He resisted desperately, but his face was getting closer and closer to the mud in the tank.

"It's Miss!"

"The jade bracelet was given to me by Miss Su. She asked me to sue you for being unfilial! She instructed me to do this!"

Zhu cried out for mercy in a shrill voice.

She was covered in wounds and felt pain all over her body. She was completely defeated by the dark mud that emitted a faint stench.

"Woo woo woo, I'm innocent, spare me!"

Su Yinyue remained unmoved. She exerted force with her hands and pushed her head into the water tank.

"Gurgle, gurgle, help..."

"Su Qinning is the mastermind, and you, the accomplice, can't get away with it!"

Wow!

At the moment Zhu was suffocating, Su Yinyue pulled her head out of the water!

Zhu survived the disaster, his chest heaving violently and breathing heavily.

The originally clear water surface became turbid after being stirred by Zhu's big face.

"I'll collect some interest first!"

"stop!"

Aunt Yan originally didn't want to get involved, but when she heard that this matter involved Su Qinning, she immediately spoke out to stop it.

"Su Yinyue, you are crazy! She is your adoptive mother who raised you. Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning if you treat her like this?"

Recognizing the person, Su Yinyue curled her lips and smiled, "It's you."

"Are you coming to me to return the three hundred and fifty-five thousand taels of silver that were withheld from me?"

Aunt Yan's heart tightened, "What do you mean 350,000 taels?"

Su Yinyue threw Zhu to the ground, stepped over her and walked in front of Aunt Yan.

Revenge can be taken later; money is more important.

"The betrothal gifts for the royal family and the dowry for the marquisate. I just went to the storehouse and saw that there was only something on the surface of the wooden box. The ground below was filled with dirt and rocks."

With a faint smile on her face, she held out her hand to Aunt Yan, "I am your only daughter. You won't withhold my dowry and betrothal gifts and let me live in the palace with difficulty because I have no money, right?"

"I don't know what you're talking about."

Aunt Yan frowned slightly and refused to admit it. "Before your betrothal gifts and dowry were carried out of the Marquis' Mansion today, someone was specially assigned to check them. If there is anything missing, it can only be the fault of the servants. It has nothing to do with me."

How could she possibly spit out what she had put into her mouth?

Simply delusional.

On the other side, Captain Ding, after hearing what Zhu said, quietly approached the prefect and asked in a low voice: "Sir, Zhu seems to have been instructed by someone. Should we still punish the princess?"

The prefect's face was as dark as ink. He knew that someone was plotting against Su Yinyue as early as when the maids Qianqiu and Zhu came to the mansion together.

But so what?

With Zhu's testimony, they would have the upper hand and the opportunity to work for the Third Prince and throw dirty water on Prince Yu. What would the innocent Princess Yu matter to them?

Being in the officialdom, some frame-ups are commonplace.

Before coming to the palace, he predicted how Su Yinyue would defend herself and had thought of a response strategy.

But after Su Yinyue beat the master to death with a flurry of punches, there was no room for him to perform!

The prefect raised his hand and touched his aching cheek.

I'm a little undecided.

Su Yinyue was so angry at Aunt Yan's self-righteous look that she laughed. She changed the direction of her outstretched hand and patted Aunt Yan's shoulder.

"As someone who has been through this, I'm telling you something from the bottom of my heart. Without me, Miss Su would have been a lonely widow in the palace for the rest of her life. I was used as a scapegoat in exchange for Miss Su's comfortable life, and I deserve the money."

Aunt Yan was in the wrong for stealing the dowry and betrothal gifts. She glanced around and saw Zhu lying half-dead on the ground, so she immediately changed the subject and scolded her.

"Mrs. Zhu is your adoptive mother. I specially hired her to take care of you. You beat her like this. Has your conscience been eaten by a dog?"

She had been staying in the side hall of the palace and was not well-informed. She didn't know that Zhu had returned to the marquis's mansion and met Su Qinning, and then brought the prefect to the palace to accuse Su Yinyue of being unfilial. She just thought that Su Yinyue was dissatisfied with her arrangement and deliberately beat Zhu to slap her in the face.

Aunt Yan was heartbroken, "You beast, how could I have given birth to a little beast like you who has no sense of propriety, righteousness, and integrity! As a princess, you have no virtues as a woman, you are unkind and unfilial, and you have ruined the family tradition of my mansion!"

"I am a beast, what are you? A little beast? A female beast?"

Su Yinyue raised the corner of her mouth, but the smile didn't reach her eyes, "You're still scolding me, right?"

"You haven't raised me for a single day, why are you trying to act like a mother?"

"I have more than 100 taels of silver on me, and I spent 90 taels on you alone. What about you? What have you given me?"

"Madam Hou gave me some clothes and jewelry for the sake of respectability. As my biological mother, you are not even as good as an outsider. Respect is mutual. If you look down on me, I will not take you seriously either."

"you……"

Without waiting for Aunt Yan to speak, Su Yinyue interrupted.

"You spend your days embroidering and sewing clothes, and you're eager to kneel down and lick the young lady's ass. Has the young lady ever given you a good face?"
