The Villain is Reborn! Princess Zhan goes on a killing spree in the capital
Chapter 42 Killing for life is a matter of course
Su Mingyue loudly protested her injustice to Shen and Su Jian, but Ji Xue was disdainful and casually folded up Qingtuan's indenture and put it away: "I'm just a second-class maid, why should I lie?"
"Father, my sister is just making fun of me by making random accusations like this."
"Mingyue!" Su Jian's face darkened.
"Qingtuan is really mine, I didn't give her to my sister!" Su Mingyue said as she immediately went to wake up the unconscious Nanny Wang: "Tell me quickly, is Qingtuan really mine? I didn't give her indenture to my sister, am I right?"
Nanny Wang didn't know what was going on and just nodded habitually.
"Nanny Wang is yours, so of course she'll side with you." Ji Xue's eyes were full of sarcasm. She glanced at Chunya and said, "Just like if I were to ask Chunya, she would definitely side with me."
"Chunya, did the Second Young Miss send Qingtuan's indenture to Shufangyuan?"
Chunya nodded without hesitation.
"So, words are not enough, the indenture is the proof." Ji Xue looked at Su Jian: "Su Mingyue first pretended to give me a second-class maid, and then deliberately had her beaten to death. She is simply making a fool of me, her sister."
"Since she dared to do it, she must pay the price!"
There is no hope for a peaceful resolution to this matter.
Su Jian looked at Su Mingyue, as if he was pondering how to deal with this matter.
Su Mingyue's heart sank. She stopped arguing with Su Jixue about Qingtuan's ownership. To change her father's impression, she could only insist that Su Jixue had damaged the reputation of the Xiangfu. "Sister, you said you wanted Mingyue to pay the price. You wouldn't want your own sister to pay with her life for a girl like Qingtuan, would you?"
Su Mingyue deliberately emphasized the word "legitimate daughter" in order to let Su Jixue still remember her identity. She also looked at Shen and Su Jian with grievance, letting them remember that she was the real daughter of the Prime Minister.
"Even if Qingtuan is your maid, such a lowly servant deserves to die. You don't think that a maid who has an affair with a man outside of her will not be punished?!"
"Are you sure you want to stand up for this scumbag?!"
"Yes, Master, you should know that the reputation of this mansion doesn't just concern Sister Xue alone. All the daughters of the Su family will be implicated." Shen Shi chimed in: "Outsiders will only laugh at the Su family's daughters for being uneducated, and won't care whether Qingtuan is the maid of the eldest or second daughter."
Su Jian looked at Ji Xue and made a decisive decision: "Nanny Wang will be beaten to death. This matter ends here."
"Master, this matter has nothing to do with me. I have already been punished by the eldest lady. Please spare my life!" Nanny Wang didn't expect that she would die just after waking up. She was so scared that she kowtowed and begged for mercy.
But soon, Nanny Wang was gagged and taken away, and the beating that had been applied to Qingtuan came back upon her twice as much.
In the distance, there was a mixture of sounds of beatings and screams, and soon, it all fell silent.
Su Mingyue's face turned pale. Her father still sided with Su Jixue. Damn, there were almost no maids left around her.
Shen lowered her eyes and gritted her teeth. She hadn't expected that even at this point, the master would still favor Su Jixue, that bitch. No, she absolutely couldn't let this bitch become Princess Zhan.
Logically, we should just let it go after dealing with Nanny Wang's matter.
Su Jian was about to order the people gathered in the yard to disperse, but Ji Xue spoke again: "Father, Ji Xue feels that this matter is not over yet."
This statement was shocking.
In the Prime Minister's Residence, even Shen Shi dared not disobey Su Jian's wishes. The eldest daughter, who had always been obedient, seemed to have changed her nature at this moment and actually refuted Su Jian in public.
"Su Jixue, don't forget your own identity!" Shen glanced at Su Jian and couldn't help but scold him. A fake rich girl actually took herself so seriously!
"What do you mean, mother? Jixue is not a good reader. Please explain clearly." Ji Xue looked confused and asked, "What is Jixue's identity?"
"With Jixue's status, can't she seek justice for her maid?"
"Or is it that our family is different from other families and can ignore the law and take human lives?"
"Su Jixue!" Su Jian's face was covered with dark clouds. He could see that if Su Jixue was not satisfied, she would dare to say anything about confiscating the property and exterminating the clan. "Then do you have any rules in mind for handling this matter?"
"Killing someone means paying with one's life. This is only natural, father, am I right?" Ji Xue's words were earth-shattering.
The whole yard was quiet.
Could it be that the eldest lady wants the second lady to pay with her life?!
Su Mingyue's face was very ugly: "What did you say?!"
"I said, sister just wants to teach you a lesson, you must pay the price for doing wrong!" Ji Xue raised a murderous arc at the corner of her lips: "You are right just now, sister just wants you to pay with your life."
From Su Jixue to Qingtuan, Su Mingyue has to pay the price.
"You're crazy!" Su Mingyue suspected there was something wrong with her ears. Su Jixue actually said in front of Su Mingyue's parents that he wanted her to pay with her life?!
How dare she!
"When a country has laws, rituals and music will not collapse. Laws guide the people, and punishments prevent evil. Laws do not favor the rich, and the law does not bend." Ji Xue looked down at Su Mingyue coldly and solemnly, "The prince is guilty of the same crime as the people. Why do you think you don't have to pay the price?"
Sorry, besides being able to use her hands, she also has a mouth.
The great scholars who were so angry that they vomited blood after being lectured by Ji Xue are now bedridden and ashamed to see people.
"Miss Su said it well. You are worthy of being the eldest daughter of Prime Minister Su." A strange male voice suddenly came.
Everyone turned around and saw a man in military officer's uniform standing at the gate, along with a team of guards with swords.
"Su Mo, how did you get in?!" Su Jian's face became even gloomier when he saw the person coming.
"I received a report from the police that a murder occurred here. As a commander, it is my duty to come here and take a look." Su Mo shrugged, looking nonchalant.
"What do you mean by reporting to the police or murder? I'm asking you how you got into my residence!" Su Jian was furious.
"He walked in!" Su Mo said as a matter of course: "How else could he get in?"
"Someone, come here, kick him out!" Su Jian's face was full of anger.
"I've already said that I'm investigating a case, and even if you're the Prime Minister, you can't interfere with it!" Su Mo didn't leave. With a wave of his hand, the guards behind him blocked the door and said, "No one here is allowed to come in or out at will."
"There is no case here and no one has reported it to the police. Get out of here!" Su Jian was furious.
"No? I smell blood. Could it be that Prime Minister Su is trying to obstruct the investigation? Even if you were the Prime Minister, I would still report you!" Su Mo said stubbornly, "Where is the victim? Who reported it to the authorities?"
"Su Mo, you are just a sixth-rank official, yet you dare to act wildly in the prime minister's residence. People like you deserve to be expelled from the clan!" Shen gritted her teeth.
"Thank you, Lord Prime Minister, for your kindness in eliminating my clan. Otherwise, I wouldn't be the commander-in-chief of the Five Cities Military Department today. Although the position is small, it's just enough for me to take on the cases of the Prime Minister's Mansion." Su Mo said with a smile, infuriatingly speaking.
"Whoever reported this, please speak up, or I won't have to perform a monologue here."
"squeak."
Ji Xue squeaked in response to the incredulous gazes from everyone in the yard.
