Lian'er couldn't stand it anymore and rolled up her sleeves, ready to rush over.

"Miss, this woman's words are so infuriating."

At this moment, Mo Yunhan looked up and glanced over, his dark eyes carrying a hint of teasing.

"Wan'er wants me; there's no need for medicine."

Jiang Qingwan gave him a disdainful look.

"Shut up!"

Clearly, no one paid any attention to Luo Ruyan's ambiguous attempts to sow discord.

Zheng Qing, however, couldn't help but scold him in a low voice.

"This is none of your business. You should go back."

Feeling wronged and unwilling, Luo Ruyan twisted her waist and leaned closer to him.

“My lord, what are you saying? I am your second wife, and also Chengye’s mother. How can I not care if my child is wronged?”

Zheng Qing really wanted to slap himself a few times.

Why did I have to be so foul-mouthed and say those things back then?

Fortunately, Ye Qi pulled Li Mama in at that moment, breaking his awkward situation.

Ye Qi simply left Granny Li next to Ah Hu.

The two bumped into each other, glanced at each other, and Ah Hu trembled even more violently.

Granny Li calmed herself down, straightened her sleeves, and knelt down to pay her respects.

"Greetings, Your Highness. May I ask why Your Highness sent someone to bring this old servant here?"

She had just finished speaking when Qinghui arrived.

He was carrying an incense burner.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, the sandalwood in this incense burner has been specially treated with at least 30% added with a special fragrance."

When Zheng Chengye saw the incense burner, he suddenly remembered something.

"Oh, so that's why the incense is different today. It's you who added this disgusting stuff to it."

He pointed angrily at Ah Hu, wishing he could punch him a couple of times.

Seeing that his secret had been exposed, Ah Hu dared not hide it any longer.

He immediately pointed at Granny Li and said, "It was her, she gave me the incense and asked me to replace the old incense for the young master. She also gave me fifty taels of silver."

He shakily took the silver out of his pocket.

Zheng Chengye found it hard to believe.

"Granny Li? You... why did you try to harm me? No wonder I met you on the road. You were trying to lead me to the main hall to find my cousin-in-law, saying that she was the one who made the decisions and was the root cause of my parents' quarrel. I never expected you to be waiting for me here!"

Zheng Qing was also surprised.

In his memory, Granny Li was extremely kind to Yun Xiaoran and also treated Zheng Chengye well.

He was a kind-looking old man.

How could you do such a despicable thing?

Now that things had come to this, Granny Li knew she could not escape punishment.

She raised her head and glared angrily at Mo Yunhan.

"Why is this happening to the old servant? Don't others know, and doesn't Your Highness know? My Lady has been devoted to you, and was willing to become a concubine to accompany Your Highness in the mansion. But Your Highness has found a new love and forgotten his old one. He has repeatedly humiliated the Lady for that vile woman Jiang Qingwan, causing her physical and mental trauma."

"This old servant can't fight for the county princess, nor can he decide who the prince likes, but this old servant just can't stand it, and he wants everyone in the prince's mansion to hate Jiang Qingwan! I had someone put that incense there, and I set up this whole thing. Kill me or torture me, it's all up to you!"

Zheng Qing was so angry that he pointed at her but didn't know what to say.

"You're really getting senile. No matter what, you can't do this to a child like Chengye. You watched him grow up, how could you be so heartless!"

Mo Yunhan glanced at the indignant and resentful Li Mama and coldly curled the corners of his lips.

"If that's the case, then kill them."

Granny Li's heart tightened.

She said it on purpose, not because she really wanted to die.

Instead, they wanted to incite Zheng Qing to sympathize with and pity Yun Xiaoran, and to make him believe that Jiang Qingwan had stolen someone else's love.

Therefore, Yun Xiaoran might still have a chance to turn her life around in the Prince's mansion.

She never expected that Mo Yunhan would actually try to kill her.

A chill ran down her spine, and cold sweat broke out all over her body.

Qinghui said coldly, "I'll do it!"

Having said that, he drew his short sword and moved closer.

Ah Hu was so frightened that he shrank back and hid.

Granny Li also wanted to hide.

But there was nowhere to hide.

Large beads of sweat rolled down his face, and all traces of his righteous indignation from just moments before had vanished.

His whole body went limp and he collapsed to the ground.

At this moment, Yun Xiaoran rushed in, wearing a cloak and looking very anxious.

She knelt down in front of Mo Yunhan with a thud.

"Brother Yunhan, please don't kill her, please don't kill her. Xiaoran has nothing left, only Granny Li is her closest friend."

Seeing this, Granny Li also shed tears.

“Princess, this old servant has no regrets. You have suffered too much. This old servant is willing to die to fight for you one last time.”

The master and servant wept so bitterly.

It seems that she has suffered all kinds of grievances in this palace, and is all alone and helpless with no one to help her.

Zheng Qing felt a little reluctant.

"Yunhan, if you really don't like Xiaoran, why not let her leave the manor? Now that the Empress Dowager is gone, the Emperor certainly won't care about this matter. After all, you two grew up together as childhood sweethearts; you can't let her suffer for the rest of her life."

"and……"

He looked at Zheng Chengye.

"And Chengye is fine too."

Zheng Chengye also felt very reluctant.

Although some of Yun Xiaoran's actions did disappoint her, the past feelings still remained.

"Cousin, maybe we should just forget about it."

Mo Yunhan sighed inwardly.

He walked to Jiang Qingwan's side and put his arm around her.

“This matter involves your cousin-in-law, and I have no right to make decisions for her.”

Zheng Chengye thought of the crude things he had said when he was feeling hot all over.

Her fair face flushed bright red.

Fortunately, no major mistake was made.

He bowed respectfully to Jiang Qingwan.

"My cousin-in-law was frightened today."
