The mistress is reborn, no one who bullies me can escape

Zhao Yuhao's mind suddenly became clear, but at the same time he was secretly annoyed.

He realized that his behavior just now was really inappropriate and he almost lost his mind. If his sister-in-law hadn't reminded him in time, the consequences would be disastrous. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel scared.

"Someone, go and call Imperial Physician Zhang!" Out of caution, he didn't even dare to ask a doctor from outside to treat the patient.

It's over, it's completely over!

Before the imperial physician arrived, Wang was already extremely anxious and restless.

Seeing this, Xue Jinhua quickly tried to comfort her, "Mom, if you were the one who poisoned the Patriarch, I suggest you admit it as soon as possible. After all, we are all family, and the Patriarch might forgive you for this."

Wang bit her lip, looking hesitant and wavering.

"My dear sister, why do you admit to something you clearly didn't do? Our release of the silver didn't cause any casualties, and you'll just be locked up for a few days at most. But if you admit to poisoning, that would be attempted murder, and it won't just be a simple jail term."

Mrs. Zhou, who was standing by, kindly reminded her, “What Xue Jinhua did was not to mitigate your crime, but to push you into the fire pit!”

Wang's face flushed instantly. She pointed at Xue Jinhua angrily and cursed, "Xue Jinhua, you are such a jerk. I think you want me to die, right?"

"Mom, it doesn't matter whether you admit it now or not, but no matter what the results are, I hope you won't blame me for not reminding you. Attempted murder is a serious crime. If the patriarch is willing to forgive you, perhaps this matter can be resolved. But what if the patriarch is unwilling to forgive you? If you are charged with murder, your future will be ruined."

"You... stop scaring me!" Wang had something to hide and was obviously feeling guilty when she spoke.

Xue Jinhua had already tried to persuade her in a kind way, but seeing that she would not listen, she stopped talking.

At this time, Zhao Yuhao explained: "Aunt, murder and attempted murder are both serious crimes! If the attempted murderer can obtain the victim's forgiveness, the law can indeed give him a lighter sentence."

However, who can keep a clear mind and forgive the murderer after being murdered?

However, this does give the perpetrator an opportunity to repent and reform.

Wang's face was ashen and she was about to open her mouth to defend herself when she saw Imperial Physician Zhang approaching.

"Master Zhao."

Zhao Yuhao nodded and said, "Doctor Zhang, please check this cake. I wonder if there is any hidden secret in it."

Imperial Physician Zhang looked around and understood what was going on. He knew that this matter was of great importance, so he started the examination without further ado.

He was holding a silver needle and lightly poking the pastry like a dragonfly touching the water. The silver needle instantly turned into a light black color.

"poisonous……"

Even Wang herself was so shocked that her eyes were gaping. Her legs went limp and she collapsed to the ground like mud.

"Impossible... How could it be poisonous? It's obviously not like that." Wang was terrified and turned to look at Mrs. Zhou. "Sister, didn't you say it wasn't poisonous? How could it be poisonous?"

Seeing the truth exposed, Old Lady Zhou was horrified and tried to shirk responsibility, "My dear sister, how can you say such nonsense? You made this cake yourself, and you sent someone to deliver it to the patriarch. If there was any poison, it was you who did it. How can you put the blame on me?"

Wang opened her mouth in astonishment, her eyes widened, and her face was full of disbelief. She simply couldn't believe that these words came from the mouth of her own sister.

"Sister, how could you do this? It was you who clearly said that mixing rat poison and safflower would only make people comatose but not kill people. You also said that how could a patriarch of a great family interfere in the affairs of our Zhao family? You said that I should teach him a lesson, and when he is unconscious, he will no longer be able to interfere in our family's affairs." As Wang spoke, she looked at Old Lady Zhou with tears in her eyes, and her voice became choked.

"Sister, what nonsense are you talking about? I have never said such a thing to you." Old Madam Zhou would not admit it and quickly denied it, "It was obviously you who acted on your own initiative. What does it have to do with me? Stop slandering me!"

"Okay, I treat you as my own sister, but you treat me as a fool, right? And you even bite me back at this time. How can you be so cruel?" Wang was so angry that she was shaking all over, pointing at Old Lady Zhou and cursing.

Wang finally understood that her sister had been plotting against her from the very beginning. She wanted to treat her as a fool and a bad person.

"I have always regarded you as my own sister, but why do you wrongly accuse me for no reason?" Old Mrs. Zhou said indignantly.

Xue Jinhua felt so happy when she saw the two of them turning against each other and biting each other like mad dogs.

"Okay, stop arguing."

Madam Sanshan hurriedly tried to stop their quarrel, secretly cursing the two fools in her heart. The poison had only been found to be poisonous, and who knew how many people had held the poison along the way. She didn't expect the two of them would confess.

Now that things have come to this, even if I continue to defend them, I'm afraid it will be futile...

The two of them shut their mouths at the same time, but glared at each other fiercely.

The sisters of the past have now become enemies.

Madam Sanshan looked at Xue Jinhua and said, "Madam, your mother did such a rebellious thing, are you just going to sit back and watch?"

Tube? Haha…

Xue Jinhua's goal in life is to defeat those who bully her one by one, so why would she care about such things?

"Oh? What does Madam Sanshan mean? How do you want me to manage it?"

"Of course, we should make a big deal out of a small matter, and a small matter out of nothing." Madam Sanshan continued, "If the news of your mother's attempted murder gets out, it will definitely be bad for you. Even though your career has been ruined, you still have to think about the descendants of the Zhao family. With such a mistress who commits crimes, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold your head up high when you have children in the future."

"Then according to Madam Sanshan's opinion, what should I do?" Xue Jinhua did not express her opinion, but asked calmly.

"Then of course we should keep this matter secret, seek forgiveness from the chief patriarch, and then ask Lord Zhao to give us a lighter sentence."

The patriarch frowned, and Zhao Yuhao was also very angry. "Madam Sanshan, do you want me to bend the law for personal gain?"

"Sir Zhao, I am saying this for your own good! You are only seeking temporary happiness today, but have you ever thought about the future? How will others feel if you personally send your aunt to jail? If you are accused of being unfilial, will you be able to keep your official position in the future?"

"this………"

The simple-minded Zhao Yuhao was really frightened, and a look of hesitation appeared on his face.

Xue Jinhua sneered, "I have never heard that an official appointed by the court to do his job impartially would be labeled as unfilial?

According to Madam Sanshan's opinion, if someone older than herself commits a crime in the future, wouldn't it be disrespectful for the adults to punish them?

If it was really his parents who had committed a crime, couldn't Lord Zhao just arrest his parents and let them do whatever they wanted?

Then will he still be able to hold an official position and hear cases from now on?"

Madam Sanshan's face turned pale, and she lost confidence in her words, "This... of course not."

"Besides, Lord Zhao's mother and relatives are still alive. We are just a branch of the family. Even if they want to show respect, it is not our turn, right?"

After all, their immediate family members are still around. You, who have no blood relationship with them, are just relying on their title as an elder and expecting others to respect you?

This is too shameless!"

Mrs. Sanshan's old face turned red in an instant, and her resentment and hatred towards her daughter-in-law increased a little more.

"Then what are you going to do? Are you really going to send them to the government office?" Madam Sanshan frowned and urged anxiously, "Xue Jinhua, you have to think it over carefully. If you go this way, there will be no turning back."

"The country has its laws and the family has its rules. Since my mother did something wrong, she should bear the corresponding responsibility." Xue Jin responded expressionlessly.

"You are so cruel. After all, she is your mother-in-law. How can you really bear to let her die?" Mrs. Sanshan asked angrily, her eyes full of dissatisfaction and condemnation.

Wang stood aside, staring at Xue Jinhua fiercely, as if she wanted to eat her alive.

Xue Jinhua just sneered and replied, "Madam Sanshan, you may have forgotten that my mother has just admitted that it was my aunt who instigated her to poison. As long as we can prove that my mother was deceived, then she will not be considered to have committed intentional murder. At most, she can only be considered to have been deceived. In this way, the guilt she needs to bear will be greatly reduced."

Mrs. Sanshan never expected that this seemingly weak young wife could be so rational at the critical moment and not be swayed at all.

Seeing that she couldn't convince her, Mrs. Sanshan's eyes became more and more hateful.
