The Villain is Reborn! Princess Zhan goes on a killing spree in the capital

Su Jian felt relieved when he saw Ji Xue's reaction. This time, the Princess Mansion and the things that happened there made him reassess the value of his daughter. He was also worried that if he didn't handle Su Ji Xue well, she might become estranged from the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Your mother was also deceived. Don't blame her," Su Jian said again. In fact, the incident at the Princess's Mansion was also the result of Shen's mishandling. But now, with Su Jian's promotion to Left Prime Minister at a critical juncture, he had to stabilize Su Jixue and ask her to help Shen clear the name and restore some of her reputation.

"Yeah." Ji Xue looked at her nose and thought about her heart, and responded perfunctorily.

"Your sister has been grounded and will never appear in front of you again for a while."

"Ah."

"Do you have any resentment?" Su Jian looked at Ji Xue with sharp eyes.

"Father, what answer do you want Jixue to give?" Jixue raised her eyes and met the gaze of this so-called "father." By this time, the original owner's emotions had subsided. Jixue's distinct black and white eyes, cold yet intense, made Su Jian feel a little uncomfortable.

"I never thought it would be you who saved the son of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery. I must give you an explanation this time. But we are family after all. We share the same fate. I hope you understand this principle." Su Jian smiled bitterly. "You should know that it has not been easy for me in the court these years. I am afraid that I will become the target of criticism from the censors this time. Mingyue has suffered before, so I was confused for a moment. Your mother has always loved you, but she was wrong this time."

He was clearing himself and, by the way, exonerating Shen and Su Mingyue. If Su Jian had said this before, Su Jixue would have definitely thought of her own shady status and the preferential treatment she had received in the Xiangfu over the years, and would have chosen to give in.

But now, the person sitting opposite Su Jian is Ji Xue.

"In fact, Jixue also thought that when Mingyue entered the mansion, everything should have been put right. Then today's incident would not have happened." Ji Xueqing looked directly at Su Jian with her bright eyes: "If the censor accuses you, then please make everything public. Father, you have taken care of Jixue all these years out of pure kindness, and Jixue is grateful."

"But Jixue will never forgive what happened today. I will never say anything good about Su Mingyue again. She should bear the consequences of her actions!"

Su Jian is extremely shrewd. He was able to endure the humiliation of being kicked in the crotch when he was young. He also has a sharp eye and has achieved what he has today because he has held on to the right person.

Su Jixue was now the future Princess Zhan, acknowledged by the Zhan Wang himself. Holding the Zhan Wang Order, Su Jian absolutely could not sever ties with her at this moment. Since Su Jixue would not give in, the only one who would give in was Su Mingyue.

"Jixue, don't say such things again in the future. In my heart, you have always been the eldest daughter of the prime minister's family. No one can surpass you!" Su Jian said seriously, "If you don't forgive me, then don't forgive me. Mingyue has gone too far this time! Jixue, if you have any problems in the future, just tell me. I will definitely uphold justice for you and will never let my daughter suffer any injustice again!"

"Really?" Ji Xue's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she seemed a little unconvinced: "If Ji Xue is wronged in the future, can she really ask father for justice?"

"Of course it's true! How could I, the Prime Minister of Dongchu, lie to you?" Su Jian promised solemnly.

Ji Xue looked at Su Jian with bright eyes: "Father treats Ji Xue so well! Then may I ask, father, which courtyard will Ji Xue return to after returning home?"

Don't make empty promises.

The cakes I drew before have all gone bad, so why not do something practical?

"Of course, I'm going back to Shufangyuan." Su Jian paused. "Now your father has dismissed your mother's position as housekeeper and has replaced her with Li Niang. Your Shufangyuan has already been cleaned up."

"But Jixue wants to go back to Qinglan Courtyard." Ji Xue curled her lips and smiled lightly: "My sister deserves to be punished. I can't continue to occupy my daughter's courtyard."

In the past, Su Jixue was the only jewel in the crown of the prime minister's residence, living in the most beautiful courtyard in the entire residence. But after Su Mingyue came back, she moved from Qinglan Courtyard to Shufang Courtyard, and later was locked up in a side courtyard.

Su Jian remained calm, his demeanor as gentle as a spring breeze. "As I should." He lifted the curtain and ordered the attendant outside, "Come, go find Madam Li and ask her to quickly arrange for Qinglan Courtyard to be vacated for the eldest lady."

In the past, when people said this, Su Jixue would always refuse.

This time, Su Jixue didn't take the initiative to refuse. Ji Xue even added confidently, "Let them move faster. I'm a little tired and want to go back and rest early."

Su Jian paused as he was about to let go of the car curtain, but ultimately did not stop it.

The carriage moved forward and finally stopped at the gate of the prime minister's residence.

Mo Chuyi completed the War King's instructions and turned around and left.

Ji Xue got out of the car and stood at the door, looking at the plaque of the Su Mansion. The magnificent plaque with golden characters was written by the emperor himself, which was considered an honor for the Prime Minister's Mansion. Now that the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion was wide open, it looked like a giant beast with its mouth wide open, ready to swallow people directly.

But she is not afraid.

Ji Xue raised her foot and walked in with her back straight.

This is her new battlefield.

And she will never lose again.

Su Jian really invited the imperial physician to come and help Ji Xue treat her injuries in the front hall. He also left at the pharmacy and gave some instructions before leaving.

Su Jian stayed by his side the whole time, acting like a good father.

"These are your former maids and old women. You must take good care of the young lady in the future, do you hear me?" Su Jian asked someone to call all the maids and old women who used to work in Su Jixue's courtyard.

"Where is Molan?" Ji Xue looked around, but Molan, whom Su Jixue missed the most, was not there.

silence.

Su Jian frowned: "The eldest lady is asking questions!" He looked at the butler of the prime minister's mansion who was standing beside him.

"The maid that the young lady mentioned is already dead." The housekeeper replied with an embarrassed look on his face.

"Dead?" Ji Xue stood up suddenly. "I was fine when I left the house. My wife and daughter were both in the princess's house at the time. How did she die?"

Even if Shen and Su Mingyue were both in the princess's residence when Su Jixue escaped, the matter would have to be postponed as there was no one to take charge of the situation.

How could a person die?

"But then the lady came back." The housekeeper looked embarrassed.

In fact, it was not his place to deal with the rear house, that was the Madam's business. But now the Madam had been deprived of her housekeeping power and the young lady was under house arrest. Although Madam Li was only the temporary housekeeper, she knew everything and did not interfere.

"So, Molan was killed by them?" Ji Xue's eyes suddenly turned cold. Was it Shen and Su Mingyue who dealt with Molan after they came back?

"Miss, now that you have finally found happiness after all the hardships, just look forward to it. Why bother asking any more questions?" The housekeeper sighed, "Molan is just a third-class maid."

Su Jixue had previously been accompanied by two first-class maids, four second-class maids, and four third-class maids. Molan was a third-class maid and wasn't very clever.

But since Su Jixue's condition in the Prime Minister's Mansion went from bad to worse, Molan was the only one left by his side.

Bang!

Ji Xue flipped the small table in front of her and asked, "Butler Liu, are you teaching me how to do things? I'll ask you one last time, how did Molan die?"

"Who gave the order and who did it?"

"Where is the body?"

Ji Xue couldn't save the dead person, but she would never let her die in vain.
