"No, this is the murder weapon that the princess asked me to help her get rid of, but because we had a great time last night, I forgot about it..."

"Shut up, you wretch who bullies your master with anger! Even at this hour, you still dare to tarnish my granddaughter's reputation. Prince Cheng, you must now quickly uphold justice and bring these evil slaves to justice, or I will go to the palace tomorrow to file a complaint, accusing you of incompetence and injustice!"

The old woman pointed her finger directly at Yun Qingjie and said with indignation on her face.

"Oh my, this old lady speaks quite aggressively. Could she have some kind of background?"

Bai Yue leaned close to Yun Qingjie's ear and asked in a low voice.

"Alas, this old lady is my father's wet nurse. We usually try to avoid her and don't really want to provoke her!"

The other party sighed and responded helplessly.

"Mrs. Chen, perhaps you don't understand the current situation. The deceased's maid has already said that she received favors from Chen Yingran, so she secretly carried the deceased out of the mansion and gave him to the Duke's wife..."

"Humph, you really believe what a little girl says? Maybe that woman is in cahoots with those bastards, and her goal is to kill her master!"

Without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, Chen Guotai directly protected Chen Yingran behind her and shouted loudly.

"Anyway, I, an old man, know my granddaughter's character best. She's been kind-hearted since she was a child and wouldn't even dare to kill a mosquito. How could you say she killed someone? That's simply impossible!"

"Kindhearted? Grandma, do you have any misunderstanding about your granddaughter's character?"

Bai Yue stood up suddenly, then walked up to Chen Guotai and raised her eyebrows and said.

"Where did you come from, you insolent girl? You have no right to speak in this kind of situation!"

"My dear mother, this is Her Royal Highness Princess Cheng, and she is also the Third Princess of the Hundred Flowers Kingdom!"

Duke Chen quickly spoke up to explain for the other party.

"You are the one who bullied my wife, Princess Cheng. I didn't go to settle the score with you, but you came to my door yourself. Let me ask you, what kind of seductive tricks did you use to make Prince Cheng divorce his wife without reason?"

Chen Guotai pointed at Bai Yue's nose and scolded her in a domineering manner.

"Wife? Are you mistaken? This Chen Yingran is just a concubine. She can only be considered a concubine at best. Moreover, this concubine took advantage of my absence to punish my maidservant privately. Just based on this disrespectful behavior towards the mistress? What's wrong with the prince divorcing her?"

"Grandma, stop wasting time talking to this woman. I'm a magnanimous person and don't want to argue with her anymore. Let's quickly resolve this matter and bring these evildoers to justice so that I can clear my name!"

Chen Yingran gently tugged at Chen Guotai's sleeve, apparently hoping that the current situation could be settled as soon as possible.

"Alright, Prince Cheng, the facts are now before us. You should quickly put these villains in jail and return to close the case. Also, we at the Duke of Chen's Mansion don't welcome guests like you. We hope you won't disturb our lives again!"

Before Chen Guotai finished speaking, the silly little boy beside her suddenly seemed to be attracted by something. He suddenly broke away from the middle-aged woman's hand, ran to Bai Yue, hugged her thighs, and asked foolishly:

"Wow, the flower on your dress is so beautiful! I want this flower, please pick it off and give it to me!"

This sudden action stunned everyone present, and Bai Yue gently touched the little boy's head and said with a smile.

"Little friend, do you really want the flowers on my clothes? They are rare flowers from heaven. Smelling their fragrance can cure any disease!"

"Really? Can any disease really be cured? My child has become mentally retarded since he fell into the water three years ago. Your Highness, do you really have a way to cure him?"

Lady Chen Guogong wanted to stop the boy's rude behavior, but when she heard what he said, her face instantly lit up with joy and she asked eagerly.

"Mother, what are you talking about? Jianbo's brain is incurable even to the best of doctors. How can you believe this woman's nonsense..."

Before Chen Yingran could finish her words, Bai Yue actually conjured up a bouquet of flowers out of thin air. The overflowing fragrance filled the entire room with a fresh scent, and everyone who smelled it felt refreshed and happy.

"Little friend, take a good smell of this flower. Believe me, after today, the nightmare that has been haunting you will surely disappear!"

The other party handed the flowers to Chen Jianbo and spoke seriously. The little boy closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and when he opened them again, his eyes were clear and bright.

"Eh? Dad, Mom, Grandma! What are you doing here?"

He looked at everyone in the hall as if he had just woken up from a dream, and Duke Chen rushed to him, picked him up and said in disbelief.

"Bo'er? Are you really okay? Can you recognize who I am?"

"You're the father!"

"What about me? Who am I?"

At this time, Mrs. Chen Guo no longer cared about Chen Yingran's affairs. She quickly walked to her grandson and asked anxiously.

"grandmother!"

"Bo'er, that's great! You're finally better! You're finally better!"

The wife of Duke Chen also came over with tears in her eyes. When Chen Jianbo saw her, he smiled and called out "Mother!"

"Yingran, come here quickly. Your brother's illness has been cured. Why haven't you come to see him yet?"

Duke Chen looked at Chen Yingran with a puzzled look, but Chen Jianbo hugged his neck and cried loudly.

"No! Don't let her come over! She's a bad person! She threw my brother and me into the lake!"

"What? Bo'er, say it again! You said it was your sister who pushed you and Yan'er into the water?"

Mrs. Chen Guo grabbed Chen Jianbo's shoulders, her face full of disbelief.

"Yes! My sister said she would take us to the lake to see the little fish, but when we got there, she threw my brother into the water first. I wanted to run, but...but..."

When the other party said this, he was already sobbing, and everyone in the hall looked at Chen Yingran.

"Oh, Bo'er, have you been sick for so many years, and your brain has been confused? We are siblings from the same mother, how could I possibly harm you? Think about it carefully, have you been deceived by some treacherous person? Or is it that woman behind you, has she used some kind of magic to make you ignore the family relationship between us?"

Chen Yingran's expression at this moment was as ferocious as a demon crawling out of hell.

"No! You were the one who did what happened back then! And you also tried every possible way to get rid of the children that the concubines in the mansion were carrying!"
