The group's favorite, the blind princess is both a doctor and a poisoner

Seeing that the matter was exposed, the couple immediately shifted the blame and pointed at Wu and shouted,

"It was her! She was the one who told us! She said Su Yuejian is our daughter! That's why we found ourselves here!"

"Sir, we really didn't know we had the wrong person!"

The two men begged for mercy.

Mrs. Wu had no idea that things would turn out this way, and she immediately bent down and knelt.

"Old Madam, you are very perceptive. I met them by chance. I heard that the daughter they were looking for was named Yuejian. I also remembered that the eldest daughter was an orphan, so I went to inquire about her."

"Since the time and all the marks matched, I thought they were the eldest lady's relatives, so... so..."

The more she spoke, the more uncertain she became. She panicked and cried anxiously,

"Madam, I didn't know I was wrong!"

Master Su's face turned red with anger, and his eyes were full of hostility as he looked at Wu.

Madam Su shouted angrily, "You're still quibbling! Didn't you hear what the prince said just now? They're clearly not here to look for our daughter!"

Wu shuddered with fear and shook her head, "What I said is true! Sister Qiao was there the day we met them!"

She looked at Qiao hopefully.

Mrs. Qiao didn't expect that she would drag her into this. A trace of viciousness flashed across her face, but disappeared in an instant.

She pretended to reflect on her memories and nodded timidly, "I think I did run into a couple when I went out that day, but I was busy with other things and left in a hurry, so I didn't pay attention to what happened."

She glossed over the matter with a few words and completely distanced herself from the matter.

Mrs. Wu continued to defend herself, "It's true, big brother, and I went to the Salesian Hall and asked the headmaster. He said that Yuejian had indeed gone to the Salesian Hall by herself when she was seven years old, and he didn't know where she was before. Plus, the birthmarks match, so I..."

As Mrs. Wu spoke, she began to cry again out of grievance.

"Madam, I'm doing this for you and my elder brother. I'm afraid you'll be deceived!"

Su Xiaoshi also knelt down and begged, "Old Madam, Uncle, my mother also has good intentions!"

Although Taifu Su was extremely angry, Wu was from the second house after all, and Su Shiming had gone out of town to discuss business. If he punished her at this moment, it would be inappropriate, so he turned to look at Old Madam Su.

Old Madam Su knew that it was not easy for Su Lin to come forward, and as the elder, it was most appropriate for her to speak up.

She looked unhappy and said coldly,

"No matter how kind-hearted you are, you shouldn't set your sights on Yue'er. Our Su Mansion is small and I'm afraid it can't accommodate someone as kind-hearted as you. When the Third Brother comes back, you should move out immediately."

As soon as these words were spoken, Wu and Su Xiaoshi were poured with a bucket of cold water.

Move out?!

How can this work!

Su Xiaoshi was so anxious that she shook her head with tears in her eyes.

She had finally managed to live in such a luxurious mansion and had begun to make friends with noble ladies. If she were asked to move out now, wouldn't she be just a lowly merchant's daughter again?

It can be seen that the old lady's attitude is firm. She is hateful and annoyed, and looks at Su Yuejian with vicious eyes.

Then, as if she had thought of something, Su Xiaoshi knelt up and said to Su Yuejian sternly,

"Su Yuejian! The head of the Salesian Hall said it himself that you came to the Salesian Hall on your own when you were seven years old. Why doesn't anyone know this? Why did you tell everyone that you grew up in the Salesian Hall? You're clearly lying!"

Taifu Su and Su Yanzhou also looked at Su Yuejian in confusion.

Su Xiaoshi was right.

Yue'er has always told them that she grew up in the Mercy Hall, but why is it inconsistent with what the hall master said?

Could it be that the hall master was bribed to frame Yue'er?

They both looked at Su Yuejian with frowns, waiting for her to explain.

The Crown Prince and Prince Gong also looked at her.

Prince Gong originally thought that she was just an adopted daughter and did not take her seriously, but today he saw that Grand Tutor Su and Old Madam Su attached great importance to her.

This matter has taken one turn after another.

He was curious about what secrets this woman was hiding.

Su Yuejian frowned slightly and clenched her hands in her sleeves.

She couldn't reveal the secrets.

Her mind was spinning rapidly, trying to come up with an excuse to get away with it.

Su Xuewei didn't expect this to happen.

The situation took a turn for the better. Seeing Su Yuejian remained silent, she couldn't help but sneer.

It seems that Su Yuejian is hiding something!

Su Xiaoshi pressed on, "The head of the Salesian Hall is upright and honest. Everyone in the surrounding area can attest to his character. If my uncle doesn't believe Shi'er and mother, you can ask the head of the hall to confront them face to face!"

Su Yuejian didn't know how to answer.

Madam Su could no longer bear it and angrily slammed the table, yelling at Su Xiaoshi, "That's enough! Shut up!"

Su Lin had never seen her mother so angry before, and was shocked.

"Mother, calm down."

Old Madam Su looked at everyone with a serious expression and glanced coldly at the kneeling Wu mother and daughter.

He said in a deep voice, "I know Yue'er's origins."

When these words were spoken, everyone in the hall was surprised.

Su Yue saw her eyelashes tremble slightly, and her heart trembled.

Grandma knows?!

Before she could think about it, the old lady said to Su Lin,

"Back then, when I asked you to adopt Yue'er, I only said that I liked this clever and well-behaved girl. Actually, I was asked by an old friend to do so."

The doubt in Su Taifu's eyes deepened.

An old friend?

The old lady said, "Yue'er is Gu Congyu's adopted granddaughter. She was raised by him until he was on his deathbed. He sent someone to deliver a letter to entrust Yue'er to me for raising."

Su Yuejian frowned, puzzled.

Gu Congyu?

Isn’t it Ming Buxi?

Hearing Gu Congyu's name, Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows slightly, and a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.

The Crown Prince and Prince Gong were shocked instantly.

The prince asked anxiously, "Gu Congyu? Is that the Gu Congyu who was once hailed as a peerless genius by the scholars of Tianjin?"

Madam Su nodded and explained to Su Lin,

"Gu Congyu and your father are sworn brothers, but he has always lived in seclusion, and your father has never mentioned it to you, so you don't know about it."

Su Lin recalled that his mother had a sudden illness and all the famous doctors said that there was no cure. Someone sent two letters, one for him and one for the old lady.

The letter given to him said that the old lady's illness required the blood of a medicine man, and also included a prescription and where to find the medicine man. Only then did he bring Su Yuejian back from the Mercy Hall.

Not long after the old lady woke up, she asked him to adopt Su Yuejian.

Out of gratitude and seeing that Yuejian was very kind, he agreed to this matter.

So the person who wrote the letter back then was Gu Congyu!

His father was actually a sworn brother of Gu Congyu, the famous and unrivaled genius in Tianjin!

Su Yanzhou was also shocked. He didn't expect that Yue'er was raised under the teachings of Mr. Gu!

No wonder Yue'er is so talented!

Then Su Yanzhou asked again in confusion, "Then why did grandma hide Yue'er's life story?"

Madam Su sighed and said slowly, "He repeatedly told me in his letters that he didn't want his fame to put pressure on Yue'er. He just wanted her to live a peaceful and smooth life like an ordinary family. Yue'er refused to reveal her experiences before Salesian Hall, also in accordance with his wishes."

The Crown Prince and Su Yanzhou nodded slightly, understanding what was going on.

After hearing this, Prince Gong had new thoughts in his mind.

The Wuling Gu family, one of the five most prestigious families, is known as the most scholarly family in Jiangnan.

Gu Congyu was a man of both civil and military talents, and was proficient in all arts including music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and songs. He had extremely high attainments in literature and had once single-handedly led the trend of scholars in the entire Tianjin.

Gu Congyu's influence on scholars and students is no less than that of the Su family!

She is both the adopted granddaughter of Gu Congyu and the adopted daughter of Su Taifu.

Besides, Su Yuejian is talented and famous. Although she is blind, she has a graceful figure. Just looking at her facial features, she is a stunning beauty!

If I could marry her, wouldn't that be equivalent to getting the support of all the literati in Tianjin!

There was a glimmer of greed in his eyes, and the look he gave Su Yuejian was a bit more scorching.
