Looking at the green figure in the distance, Su Wan's eyes instantly turned red, and then tears burst out uncontrollably.

She turned around and said to Xigu, who was still crying on the ground, with mixed feelings of grief and anger,

"Aunt Xi, Sister Yue'er treats me with all her heart, but why did you and Auntie tell me that Yue'er is a vicious person? I really can't understand how Sister Yue'er has offended you and Auntie to provoke you to belittle and abuse her in private!"

Su Wan's voice trembled slightly, and her eyes were filled with anger and confusion.

"I couldn't stand it anymore today, so I hit you to teach you a lesson: never disrespect Yue'er again!"

When Xigu heard what Su Wan said, she was stunned for a moment, her face full of disbelief.

what?

What's going on with Guan Suyue!

Why did this little bitch suddenly mention her?

She was about to retort: "You are nonsense..."

"What?! How dare someone insult my Yue'er?!"

Su Lin's voice sounded like thunder, his eyes were burning with anger, his brows were tightly furrowed, and his face was terribly gloomy.

When Xigu saw Su Lin coming, her heart suddenly rose to her throat.

She hurriedly got up from the ground, her knees still shaking, and explained in a panic,

"No, no, no, Master Taifu, you heard wrong! No one dares to insult the princess!"

Su Lin glanced at her coldly, frowned and looked at Su Wan with a hint of majesty in his eyes, "Is what you just said true?"

Xigu immediately winked at Su Wan frantically, her eyes full of anxiety and pleading, signaling her not to talk nonsense.

Su Wan looked at Xigu, who was sweating profusely with anxiety, and the corners of her lips under the brocade handkerchief curled up slightly in an imperceptible arc.

Her eyebrows seemed to be frowning, and she looked at Xigu with some fear.

She seemed to be in a difficult situation, "Uncle..."

Su Lin had long noticed that Xigu was constantly winking at Su Wan.

This Xigu really has something to hide. It seems that what Su Wan said is true.

He originally thought that Wu would repent after having learned from the previous lessons, but he did not expect that she actually harbored resentment towards Yue'er in private.

He hadn't seen his precious daughter for a long time, and he missed her very much and was in a very bad mood. Today, Xigu was caught in the crossfire!

Feeling Su Lin's cold gaze, Xigu's heart skipped a beat.

There is no need to explain Su Yuejian's importance in the Su Mansion. What Su Wan said today was simply sending her to her death!

"Master Taifu, please listen to my explanation. Miss Wan is talking nonsense..."

As Xigu spoke, she kowtowed continuously, her forehead hitting the ground with a loud thud.

Su Lin didn't listen to her nagging at all.

Anyone who dares to say anything bad about her Yue'er has had enough of life!

He shouted loudly: "Come here, this cunning slave has committed insubordination. Arrest her and give her fifty lashes!"

Upon hearing this, Xigu was so frightened that her legs started shaking.

She remembered that Mrs. Qiao had been beaten with thirty sticks before, and had lost most of her life. How could she, with her old arms and legs, withstand fifty sticks?

Her face turned pale, her eyes were filled with despair, and she immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed repeatedly, begging,

"Master Taifu, please spare my life, please spare my life, Master. I will never dare to do it again, never again!"

"Hit him!" Su Lin shouted again firmly, without a trace of mercy.

Looking at Xigu crying with tears and snot flying everywhere, her miserable appearance was completely different from when she was acting like a bully in the past.

Su Wan felt even more sarcastic in her heart.

When the servants heard that Xigu was beaten because she dared to insult their princess, they were all filled with righteous indignation.

The princess is such a good person, and Xigu actually dared to slander her. She is so bold!

Several people moved the benches swiftly, and Butler Xu quickly summoned the guards to carry out the execution.

Wu Wei took the board and walked to Xigu.

Seeing this, Xigu cried even louder.

"Ah! --- please spare my life, sir!"

"I—I won't dare to do it again—ah—"

Xigu kept crying and begging for mercy, her voice becoming more and more hoarse, and her body kept struggling, but she was held down tightly by the guards.

Su Lin watched all this coldly.

He thought of the grievances Yue'er had suffered over the years because of those groundless comments, and the anger in his heart seemed to be poured with oil, burning even more fiercely.

He continued to shout, "Hit him hard!"

Su Shiming and his wife were drinking tea leisurely in Wanxiang Hall. Suddenly, they heard that Xigu had done something wrong and angered Su Lin, and their faces changed drastically.

They hurried to the front yard, not knowing what had happened.

As soon as I came in, I saw Xigu was beaten to pieces and had fainted.

Wu's heart suddenly tightened. Without caring about anything else, she hurried forward and said, "Big brother, what are you doing?"

Su Shiming grabbed Wu, with a warning in his eyes, signaling her not to be impulsive.

After Su Shiming saluted, he asked in a gentle voice,

"Brother, Xigu is from our second house after all. I wonder what she did wrong to make you so angry?"

Su Lin glanced at Wu coldly.

Humph, this woman, I haven't even come to settle the score with her yet, but she comes here on her own!

Su Lin snorted coldly, "Then you'll have to ask your good wife!"

"This..." Su Shiming looked at Wu in confusion.

Mrs. Wu was also confused. "Big brother, is there any misunderstanding? I wonder where I offended you..."

Housekeeper Xu said coldly, "Misunderstanding? This wicked servant is slandering our princess. If she hadn't been instructed by her superiors, would she dare to say that? Everyone in this mansion knows that Xigu is your confidant!"

A trace of panic flashed across Wu's eyes.

How could this Xigu tell others about their private conversations in the yard!

She put on an innocent look and immediately distanced herself from the matter.

"That's not true! Big brother, Yue'er is well-behaved and intelligent. I love her so much that I can't wait to slander her."

Su Lin had never liked Wu, and he still remembered how she had falsely accused Yue'er.

His eyes were cold, and he turned around and asked Su Shiming in a cold voice, "Do you know these things?"

Su Shiming was frightened by his pressure, looked at Su Lin's sharp eyes, and explained hurriedly,

"Brother, I've been out doing business and didn't know about these things! I didn't expect this old servant to be so cunning!"

Seeing Su Lin getting angry, Su Shiming glanced at Xigu who was beaten half to death. He still knew what was more serious.

"This cunning slave committed treason, big brother must teach him a lesson!"

"Niu Biao, lock this slave up in the woodshed and don't let her out without my order!"

Su Lin looked at all this with a cold eye, "This punishment is a small matter for a servant, but..."

He turned his head and his eyes fell coldly on Wu.

If he hadn't been influenced by Wu, how could a mere servant dare to make up stories about his precious Yue'er!
