Chapter 139 Who is the fish and who is the bait
After Su Zhiyi finished speaking, Ru Jian's face turned pale.
"Miss, what do you mean?"
"Ru Jian," Su Zhiyi looked around, his smile widening, "Who was here just now? Was it Yu Shengsheng?"
Ru Jian was stunned and shook his head: "No, no, she has never been here."
Su Zhiyi chuckled, pinched her chin, and pinched her skin with his nails.
"Didn't come? Rujian, have you learned to lie to me? Don't forget that the poison you were infected with has not yet been cured."
Ru Jian felt pain and couldn't help frowning.
"Miss, she really didn't come. I dare not lie."
"Do you think that if she gives you some antidote, everything will be fine for you? Don't forget that whether you are poisoned or not, it can't change the result. You are the slave and I am the master."
"If I tell you to die, you must die."
Ru Jian opened his eyes wide in fear, tears streaming down his face: "Miss, I dare not..."
"If you don't dare, then tell the truth. Did Yu Shengsheng come? What did she say to you? Did she want you to go back on your words and say that she was wronged? You didn't see anything at all?"
Su Zhiyi shook off Ru Jian's chin and wiped away the tears on her fingers with disgust.
Ru Jian kowtowed: "Miss, I didn't lie, she really didn't come."
Su Zhiyi was embarrassed and furious: "How dare you lie!"
She slapped Ru Jian in the face: "Bitch, I can find you in such a dirty place and make you take poison. Do you think I can't do anything to you since we are on the Su family's territory?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the light outside the window suddenly came on.
Someone said in a cold voice: "The princess has good tactics."
Su Zhiyi was stunned and his expression changed slightly.
It’s Yu Shengsheng!
Su Zhiyi turned around, staring at Ru Jian with a look as if filled with poison: "Bitch, how dare you conspire with her to harm me?"
Ru Jian shook his head: "I don't have it, really not."
Su Zhiyi pushed the wheelchair out and said, "Sister, you don't think that you can turn the world upside down just by holding a Confucian sword, do you?"
Walking out of the woodshed, Su Zhiyi looked up and his smile froze.
Only then did he realize that in the light and shadow on the opposite side, in addition to Yu Shengsheng and Jin Baobao, there were also Su Huaiyuan, Su Dingqin, Su Yanshu, and Ruan Jing.
Su Zhiyi's heart sank and the color on his face slowly faded.
Su Huaiyuan took two steps forward, his eyes as heavy as a mountain top, "Zhiyi, do you have anything else to say to your father?"
Su Zhiyi clenched her hands, bit her lip and said, "Father, I was confused for a moment because of anger. I came to see Ru Jian tonight to make her tell the truth."
"My daughter fainted from the pain at the time, and I didn't know what happened until she woke up... But Ru Jian is my personal maid, and I naturally believe her in my grief."
"Later, she and Shen Zhiyuan... my daughter only knew her ambitions. She was forced to be a prostitute for the government. I did go to look for her, but it was also for the sake of the Su family. I was afraid that she would talk nonsense and affect the future of my eldest brother and second brother."
At this point, Su Zhiyi's eyes were red with tears, and she looked up at Su Yanshu: "Second brother, you understand me best, right?"
Her tears were crystal clear and she seemed to be unable to fall. She looked extremely fragile.
Su Yanshu's heart was broken.
He strode over and gently put his arm around Su Zhiyi's shoulders: "Second brother understands and knows your painstaking efforts. Don't cry."
Su Dingqin frowned and looked at Yu Shengsheng.
Yu Shengsheng was not in a hurry and asked, "You are really good at speaking. However, are you taking two different attitudes inside and outside the house also for the Su family? I am very curious, if you come out and only see me, will you feed me poison as well?"
Su Zhiyi closed her eyes slightly, tears streaming down her face: "I know my sister has always hated me in her heart, and I can understand that."
"But I asked Ru Jian to keep silent for the Su family. What about you, sister? Why did you give Ru Jian the medicine?"
"Forcing her to change her confession and letting her speak for you? Are your methods fair and aboveboard?"
Yu Shengsheng was slightly surprised: "I asked her to drink poison? What is the princess talking about? I don't understand."
Su Zhiyi looked at Yu Shengsheng and shook her head: "Don't understand? Sister, I saw you come out of the yard and come here with my own eyes, but my wheelchair is not as fast as yours. When I arrived, you were gone..."
"When did you see me?" Yu Shengsheng asked.
"A quarter of an hour ago." Su Zhiyi said firmly.
Yu Shengsheng looked at her without saying anything.
Su Dingqin snorted coldly: "What? Feeling guilty..."
"Shut up!" Su Huaiyuan interrupted him, "Shengsheng was in my study room two quarters of an hour ago, and she came here with me just now."
Su Zhiyi was stunned: "This... is impossible."
Su Huaiyuan said sadly: "Zhiyi, could your father lie? Jing'er was also here."
Ruan Jing nodded: "Yes, Shengsheng came to the study to borrow the atlas of plants and trees. It just so happened that a few pages of Brother Su's weapon manual were damaged, so he asked her to help draw it for at least two quarters of an hour."
"If you don't believe me, you can go to the study and get the drawings that Shengsheng has drawn. The ink is not yet completely dry, and there are several pages in total."
Su Zhiyi was stunned. She clearly saw Yu Shengsheng's shadow...
Suddenly, her mind was struck by light. She only saw that the person was wearing Yu Shengsheng's clothes and had a similar figure, but she didn't see his face.
Could it be that...
Su Zhiyi looked at Jin Baobao: "It's her!"
Jin Baobao took a step back, his face full of fear: "Me? I can fight a little, but I dare not poison you."
Su Huaiyuan couldn't stand it any longer: "Zhiyi, have you had enough of the trouble?"
Su Zhiyi slid down from the wheelchair: "Father, I didn't lie, second brother..."
Su Yanshu picked her up and let her sit back in the wheelchair: "Second brother is here, wait."
Su Yanshu stood up, strode into the woodshed, and cut the rope on Ru Jian: "Get out and speak!"
Ru Jian came out and knelt down. Su Yanshu asked, "Tell me the truth. Who came to see you tonight before Zhi Yi came?"
Ru Jian trembled and pointed at Jin Baobao: "Yes, it's her..."
Su Zhiyi felt relieved and bit her lip to hold back tears: "Sister, you are so scheming. You had the maid disguised herself to trick me into coming, while you went to find my father. I only cared about the reputation of the Su family and my elder and second brothers, but I fell into your trap. I am ashamed of myself."
Su Dingqin glared at Yu Shengsheng angrily: "You are really good."
After saying that, he reached out to grab Golden Leopard: "Come here!"
Jin Baobao stepped back in fear: "Miss, save me, I didn't, I have been in the yard and didn't go out."
"Ru Jian, why do you want to hurt me? It's not enough that you've hurt my young lady once, and you want to hurt her again in front of the general!"
Su Huaiyuan stopped Su Dingqin: "Why are you in such a hurry? It won't be too late to take action after you find out clearly."
Su Huaiyuan's eyes moved between Jin Baobao and Ru Jian: "One of you said you were here, and the other said you weren't."
"What evidence is there?"
Jin Baobao said: "Madame Zhou can prove it!"
"What kind of proof is that? She is from the same courtyard as you," said Su Dingqin.
"I have evidence," Ru Jian raised his head and said, "I have it. The medicine bowl she brought is still there!"
