Just one sentence made Madam Zhan speechless. Yes, how could she forget Chen Zhilan?

She quickly made amends, "Zhilan is my mother's child, how could she harm me? She has always been filial and well-behaved, and would never do such a wicked thing!"

Lin Yiwan smiled and said, "Old Madam, you can only judge a person by their appearance. Perhaps her filial piety and obedience are just an act. After all, the young master is getting married, and life as a concubine like her will become even more difficult!"

Zhan Yan followed suit, saying, "Wanwan is right. Let's search Chen Zhilan's yard first!"

He didn't hesitate any longer and quickly led his men out.

Old Madam Zhan’s expression froze. It was clearly aimed at Lin Yiwan, so how could it suddenly affect Chen Zhilan?

Zhan Yu stood up and stepped forward to support her. She said, "Don't worry, Grandma. If they can't find anything at Lan'er's place, they'll search Lin Yiwan's yard. She won't be able to escape after all!"

Madam Zhan pinched his wrist hard and gritted her teeth: "This bitch is so hateful. If I didn't want to control her and force her to hand over the good things in her hand, I would have wanted to kill her directly!"

Zhan Yu lowered her head to comfort him, "Killing her is just the worst option. Let's control her first. As long as we have the evidence in our hands, she won't be able to get away!"

Madam Zhan clasped her hands together and said, "God bless us, this time, please don't make any more mistakes. It's time to make that bitch suffer!"

Soon everyone arrived at Chen Zhilan's yard and scared her to death.

She was clearly not pregnant yet, but she supported her waist with her hands and walked out of the yard slowly.

She asked timidly, "My Lord, Madam, why have you all come to my courtyard?"

Lin Yiwan spoke first, "Don't be nervous. It's not that the old lady is unwell. She asked a Taoist priest to come and diagnose her. He said that there is an evil thing plotting to murder her and affect the fortune of the Marquis' Mansion. That's why the young master has been plagued by misfortunes!"

Chen Zhilan denied it in fear: "No, how could I use such filthy things to murder the old lady? I would never dare to do that!"

Although she resented Zhan Yu's decision to marry, she also understood that it was not what he wanted.

He had already comforted her in advance after returning from the princess's mansion last night.

Besides, she and Su Zining were good friends.

After she becomes Zhan Yu's legal wife, she will definitely not make things difficult for her.

On the contrary, the two can join forces to deal with Lin Yiwan.

This is definitely a good thing for her, not a bad thing!

Zhan Yu subconsciously stepped forward and helped her up: "Don't be afraid, Lan'er. Grandmother and I trust you. Let the maids go in and search first. If they can't find anything, then go to Mother's yard!"

Chen Zhilan immediately understood that she was just pretending to be nice to Lin Yiwan.

She nodded: "Well, search it!"

Following Zhan Yan's order, those agile old women rushed directly into the yard.

They searched everywhere, even under the flower pots.

Chen Zhilan looked at Lin Yiwan, who was standing calmly beside Zhan Yan, and her eyes hurt with anger.

It was all this bitch's fault for depriving her of the chance to become Zhan Yu's legal wife.

She was so weak and easy to bully before, why did she suddenly change her personality on the wedding day?

Now that she has become the wife of the Marquis, Chen Zhilan's life will never be easy as long as she is around.

She only hoped that Zhan Yu's plan would succeed this time, so that she could use the child in her belly to fight for a place in this mansion.

She believed that Zhan Yu loved her the most, and Su Zining only had to marry her out of helplessness!

She clenched her fists tightly, her eyes filled with hatred for Lin Yiwan.

Just as she was lost in thought, a cry of surprise suddenly came from the yard: "Oh my God, everyone come and take a look, what is this?"

Chen Zhilan looked puzzled. What could it be?

She did have many complaints against the old lady, but she kept them in her heart and never showed them.

Not to mention using dirty things to harm her again!

At this time, everyone had walked into the yard and saw a woman holding a small black box in her hands.

It looked as if it was covered in blood and it smelled terrible.

Zhan Yu's pupils contracted violently, and his steps staggered.

How could this be?

This small box should have been placed in Lin Yiwan's yard, so why was it found in Lan'er's yard?

At this time, Zhan Yan had already ordered sternly: "Yingyi, open it quickly and take a look!"

Yingyi took a stick and directly opened the small box.

With a click, a humanoid doll wrapped in a scarf fell out, and the silver needles pierced on it flashed a bright cold light.

Lin Yiwan quickly reminded: "Look, there are eight characters written on it!"

Zhan Yu didn't care that the box was stained with black blood. He rushed over and grabbed the human-shaped doll in his arms.

He shook his head vigorously: "Lan'er would definitely not murder Grandmother. Someone must be deliberately framing her!"

Zhan Yan's cold eyes fell on him: "Hand over your eight characters!"

Zhan Yu argued in panic: "Father, Lan'er would never have such thoughts, please understand!"

Zhan Yan ignored him and looked at Ying Yi: "Do it!"

Ying rushed to Zhan Yu and raised his hand to hit him hard on the elbow.

"Bang!" Zhan Yu fell to the ground with his mouth bitten.

Chen Zhilan rushed to him and cried, "Sir, how are you?"

Zhan Yu forced himself to stand up, looking embarrassed.

By this time, Ying Yi had already seen the birth date written on it clearly. He said in a deep voice, "My Lord, this is the old lady's birth date!"

Old Madam Zhan was also confused. How could it be Chen Zhilan?

This humanoid doll should have been found in Lin Yiwan's yard!

What went wrong?

Seeing Chen Zhilan trembling with fear, she quickly said, "Yan'er, Lan'er wouldn't be so bold. Someone must have deliberately slandered her!"

Zhan Yan said coldly, "Since His Majesty ascended the throne, he has strictly prohibited the use of witchcraft and other secret techniques. I do not want to wrongly accuse her. I will immediately send for an old gentleman who can identify handwriting to come here and find out who wrote these birth charts!"

Zhan Yu was so frightened that his whole body shuddered. That was written by him!

If his father really found out the handwriting, he would not only be expelled from the mansion, but he might also be thrown into jail for practicing witchcraft.

No, you can never compare the handwriting.

Without further hesitation, he suddenly and sternly rebuked Chen Zhilan, "Lan'er, you still won't admit it? Do you really want your father to make a big fuss about this and have you sent to the government?"

Chen Zhilan froze. Was she being blamed again?

What a pitiful and innocent person she is. Ever since she came to the Marquis' Mansion, she has been pushed out to take the blame several times in a row.

Before she could figure it out, Zhan Yu knelt at Zhan Yan's feet and begged, "Father, it was Lan'er who did something wrong. Please, for the sake of her being pregnant with my Marquis's bloodline, don't punish her."
