Favoring the concubine and killing the wife? She divorced the concubine and lived with her concubine

Sun Shaohua suddenly felt that Wang Zhi's words were questionable. If this little drop of water could kill a horse, then how could he be so sure that such a strong poison would not kill a human?!

The sound of the gavel shook Sun Shaohua's spleen and lungs. He quickly fell to the ground, kowtowed and cried, "Sir! Sir! Although I am the boss, I have absolutely no idea about the vicious things done by this poison doctor! Please understand!" This time, he finally stopped being stubborn.

Wang Zhi also realized that he had said something wrong and hurriedly said, "Please understand, sir, I have absolutely never used this medicine to poison anyone else!"

Su Ze glanced at Xue Wu. He had heard Xue Wu talk about how the Sun family's slaves had harmed their master, so he naturally knew that the mistress was not dead. If she was not dead, then... there was no cure.

But he also found it strange that such a potent poison hadn't killed the woman. Either the woman was using Xue Wu, deliberately saying this to anger him and get him to take the blame. Or perhaps there was some other, unknown, coincidence.

Xue Wu saw that the old horse died not long after, indicating that the drug was extremely toxic. He also doubted that Xiao Lan could still be alive. Suddenly, he remembered that several days had passed since Xiao Lan had sent him the message. Could it be that...

He quickly looked up at Su Ze, but Su Ze shook his head slightly, signaling him to bear it. He understood Xue Wu's guess. Now, no one knew whether the woman was dead or alive, and there was no news of a funeral in the Sun family. If she was alive, wouldn't it be confirmed that it was the Sun family's wife who filed the complaint herself? How would she live in the Sun family in the future? After all, few women could bear the reputation of suing their husband's family. Besides, it was not good for a woman to be too involved with a man outside her family!

"Then I'll ask you again, you made these poisons, and now these are the only ones left. Where did you put the rest?"

Wang Zhi has learned his lesson. He will not be beheaded for privately making poisons and buying and selling banned drugs. However, if he lets it slip that he has plotted to murder the mistress of the Sun family, he will be sentenced to death even if the person does not die!

"No... just this little bit!"

"It hasn't been used anywhere?" Su Ze knew that Wang Zhi had realized it and might not be so easy to trick him.

"No, just this little bit. I didn't know this drug was so toxic... I... I haven't tried it..." Wang Zhi turned his head away, and out of the corner of his eye he saw Butler Wang nod at him. Wang Zhi believed that as long as he didn't make any complaints, his uncle would definitely help him get out early.

"Now Wang Zhi has made poison privately, and the crime has been determined! Whether he used poison to murder others is still inconclusive. Wang Zhi will be detained in the jail. If there are any doubts, he will be re-examined later!" Seeing that Wang Zhi would not say anything else, Su Ze did not pester him anymore, but he became concerned about the manager-like man who kept winking at Wang Zhi.

When Wang Zhigang came up, he didn't call for help from his boss, but called for help from the housekeeper Wang. This means that the housekeeper Wang might be the one who is deeply implicated, but there is no evidence yet.

"Sir...it's unfair, sir..." Wang Zhi was escorted away by the yamen runners. He kept looking back at Steward Wang and Sun Shaohua, "Save my master... Steward Wang... my uncle... my uncle..."

It turned out to be my cousin. Su Ze took note of it silently.

"Sun Shaohua, for now there is no suspicion that you participated in the production of poison, but you are responsible for failing to discipline your subordinates. I have decided to seal up the Baibingchu Pharmacy and confiscate all its assets! But this is your wife's dowry after all, and you have no right to sign or seal it. Ask your wife to come to the county government office tomorrow! Do you have any objections?" Su Ze's voice was very majestic, and Xue Wu even cast a grateful look at Su Ze.

"I have no objection!" Sun Shaohua was beaten with a stick, so naturally he didn't dare to object anymore. He was not a fool, and he knew who he should settle the account with.

"Okay! Sign it!" After Su Ze said that, an older lawyer handed the document over, asked him to sign it, and took it back.

"Adjourn the court!" A loud shout finally put Sun Shaohua's heart at ease.

Seeing that the court had finally left, Chi Yu hurried forward to help Sun Shaohua. Steward Wang also wanted to help, but was pushed away by Sun Shaohua. Steward Wang cried out in his heart that this was not good. He was afraid that he could not stay in the Sun family any longer. He had to go home and tell Yu Mama!

-----------------

In Xiao Lan's yard at Sun's house, only the sound of loud laughter could be heard, which made Mother Xu outside the house frown.

"This lady has been chatting with Miss Fang for a long time. Why don't they leave? They're laughing so creepily! When have you ever heard the lady laugh so happily?"

"Who knows? Madam might have forgotten how much you hated Miss Fang!" Jasmine curled her lips and broke the snacks in her hand.

"Oh, don't drive this little girl Fang crazy... Bah, bah, bah! I was just talking nonsense!" Mother Xu said and hurriedly explained.

"It's okay, I don't like gossiping!" Jasmine was disdainful. Mother Xu was naturally worried because of her concern, so how could she say anything to her?

"Why hasn't Haitang come back yet? Didn't you say you would bring Xiner over for lunch? Let's eat something delicious while Butler Wang is away!" Jasmine looked towards the door and saw that it was getting late, so she became a little anxious.

"I'm afraid Xin'er was playing around and got delayed on the way. Haitang spoiled the child and couldn't control her..." Before Mother Xu finished her words, Haitang walked back quickly. When she saw Jasmine and Mother Xu, tears came to her eyes and her lips turned pale with anxiety!

"What's wrong?!" Mother Xu suddenly felt something was wrong.

"I was at the gate of the yard and vaguely heard Xin'er crying. I knocked on the door but no one opened it!" Haitang was so panicked when she thought of Xin'er's heart-wrenching voice!

"Go tell the Madam!" Jasmine reacted quickly and shouted, "Madam, come out quickly!"

Xiao Lan was in the room, patting Fang Qingqing's hand. "Now you tell me you were blown down by the evil wind. I feel both heartbroken and amused. I don't know if I was thinking at the time... that if you hadn't died, I would definitely compensate you with two houses..."

Fang Qingqing also laughed and said, "I'm going to die too early... It's okay, just give me two sets here..."

The two were still chatting when they heard anxious shouts at the door. They quickly opened the door and Xiao Lan asked anxiously, "What's going on?"

Haitang was crying so hard that she couldn't speak clearly. Jasmine said hurriedly, "Xin'er must have been bullied by Cuizhu in the yard. Now the gate won't be opened!"

"What!?"

The crowd didn't care about anything and hurried to Xin'er's yard. When they arrived at the door, they could only hear Xin'er's intermittent voice and Cuizhu's occasional voice, but they couldn't hear clearly!

Xiao Lan wanted to kick the door, but the wooden door had a crossbar on the inside and could not be kicked open at all. Several women used all their strength but could not open the door!

"Go get me an axe! Find me a servant and tell him that the young lady fell into the water and will die if the door is not opened!" Xiao Lan knew that Xin'er was not favored by Sun Shaohua, but she was his biological daughter. He could not favor her, but the servants could not control her life or death! Several women were wasting their energy here, so it would be better to ask others to do it.

Sure enough, a few moments later, three or five servants followed Jasmine back. Without even asking any questions, they received Xiao Lan's order and simultaneously rammed the wooden door.

The wooden door opened, but there was no one in the yard. Only sounds were heard coming from the house.

Xiao Lan took the lead and hurried over, kicking the door open. She saw Cuizhu, wearing a shameful gauze dress, covering Xin'er with a quilt by the bed.

Xin'er's crying was already weak. Maybe it was because she had been crying for too long, but her eyes were red and swollen and she couldn't open them.

Seeing someone rushing in, Cuizhu quickly argued, "She did it herself, not me..."

Xiao Lan kicked Cuizhu away and lifted Xiner's quilt. She saw that a piece of Xiner's sleeve was torn off, and a large piece of flesh on her arm was exposed. A piece of sleeve fabric was thrown beside the bed.

"Ma'am! This is scalding from hot tea!"
