Just as Lan Shao was talking incoherently, Su Jinyue said softly, "Grandma, you can ask someone in my yard to ask, maybe you can find some useful clues."

Old Lady Su nodded. She also felt that this would help the matter come to light, so she said, "Madam Song, go and bring a few reliable people with you."

"Yes." Nanny Song received the order and led her people out of the front hall.

As the order was passed down, the atmosphere in the hall became more tense.

At this time, Su Zhiyao sighed softly, looked at Old Lady Su and said, "Grandma, if it is really my sister's fault, please bear with me for a while. After all, my sister is young and ignorant."

Old Lady Su said coldly: "It is no small matter to replace the original with a fake one and leave it in the mansion!"

"If His Majesty knew about this, would our mansion still have a good life?!"

Liu on the side was still not giving in. "Yes, that's easy for you to say! My Qiaoshan was so angry that he fainted! Who can we go to for justice now?"

Then, she turned to Su Jinyue and asked again, "If you really did this, there's no need to pretend."

Su Jinyue smiled calmly, "Aunt, please be patient. Before the truth comes out, please don't blame me for everything."

Just then, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the door.

Several servants came in quickly, and one of them bowed to the old lady, "Old lady, we found it! In the scary room in the eldest lady's yard, we found a big box filled with fake imitations!"

Everyone in the hall was shocked, and Liu's eyes widened. "What? Found it in the servant's room?"

Old Lady Su narrowed her eyes slightly and said slowly: "Where are the maids and servants in Wangyue Pavilion? Bring them all up to me!"

Hearing the old lady's words, Lan Shao's face turned pale. She looked up at Su Jinyue, then curled up and lowered her head again.

Su Jinyue remained calm and asked softly, "Grandma, what should we do now?"

Old Lady Su pondered for a while, and finally said, "The things are in the servants' room, it must be related to those maids Xiaosi in your yard!"

"Grandmother knows that you are wronged and will definitely give you justice!"

Su Zhiyao on the side was unwilling to accept it, "Grandmother, although this matter has nothing to do with my sister, it was because my sister did not discipline the servants strictly that they had the opportunity to take advantage of it."

"Shut up!"

Old Lady Su was so angry that she slammed the table hard!

Su Zhiyao was so frightened that she dared not make a sound.

If that was the case, it would mean that the maid she gave to Su Jinyue also had problems, and Old Madam Su would naturally be unable to save face!

Su Jinyue smiled slightly, and did not comment on their words. She just said lightly: "I believe that grandma will get to the bottom of it."

"Go in quickly!"

As soon as Su Jinyue finished speaking in the hall, Nanny Song entered the front hall with a group of maids and servants!

Lu Wu was the first one to be forced to kneel beside Lan Shao. Nanny Song glared at her and returned to Old Madam Su.

"Old Madam, this girl's reaction was strange when I entered the courtyard. I found a hairpin under her pillow. It looks like it belongs in the palace!"

Old Lady Su glared, "It's you?!"

Lu Wu is Liu's person. Seeing her being brought up, Liu couldn't sit still anymore!

She stood up, pointed at Lu Wu and started to curse, "I told you to follow the young lady and do your job well, how dare you steal things from the young lady's storeroom?!"

"I don't dare! This slave doesn't dare!!"

Lu Wu was so frightened that she lost her mind and kept kowtowing to the ground, "This hairpin was given to me by Sister Lan Shao! I don't even have the key to the storehouse!"

Old Lady Su's eyes were like torches as she swept towards Lan Shao, "Lan Shao, what's going on?"

Lan Shao's face turned pale, and her lips trembled, "I, I didn't know... I am innocent!"

She clenched her teeth and dared not look the old lady in the eye.

Seeing this, Old Lady Su shouted, "Stop quibbling! Lu Wu said you gave her the hairpin! What's going on?"

Hearing this, Lan Shao shuddered violently and wanted to protest her injustice!

Su Jinyue suddenly said, "Since we can't find out anything through interrogation, why not torture him?"

"Some people are unwilling to tell the truth if they don't go to jail."

Old Lady Su nodded and ordered, "Drag Lan Shao and Lu Wu out and give them thirty strokes of the cane!"

"yes!"

Two maids came in immediately and carried the limp Lan Shao and Lu Wu out.

"I'll tell you!"

If these thirty boards were really beaten hard, I would probably lose my life!

Lan Shao cried and begged to tell the truth. She was released and knelt on the ground. "I replaced the things with fakes... I sold the real ones to the Treasure Pavilion..."

"I have been blinded by greed...blinded by money! Please, old lady, spare my life!"

"Lu Wu's hairpins and rings were also given by this servant. She discovered me going in and out of the small storehouse that night. I gave them to her to shut her up!"

Old Madam Su was almost furious. She looked very unhappy because her maid was sent to Su Jinyue's yard and caused such a big mess!

Just as Lan Shao fell to the ground and begged for mercy, everyone in the hall was in an uproar.

Liu said, "This is a huge scandal! Mother-in-law, just beat her to death and throw her into a mass grave."

Lan Shao was so frightened that she was shaking like a sieve. She knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, "Old Madam, please spare me! Old Madam, please spare me!"

Su Jinyue spoke up to plead for Lan Shao at this time, "Aunt, Lan Shao was arranged by grandma after all. Now that she is in trouble, it is indeed my fault as the master that I failed to find out the situation in time."

"It's a human life anyway. Even if it's our mansion, we can't dispose of our servants at will."

Liu snorted, "You are so kind, but that damn girl has replaced all the things in the kitchen with fakes! You still want to save her life?!"

Of course, she was not doing this for Lan Shao. She wanted to put Lady Su in a high position and embarrass her.

"Grandma has always been a vegetarian and a compassionate person. Naturally, she doesn't want to see anyone die because of this. We, the younger generation, don't want her to worry about this either."

Old Madam Su felt comfortable being flattered by Su Jinyue, and her expression when she looked at Su Jinyue looked much better.

She looked at Lan Shao coldly, "How dare you do evil on your own and ruin the reputation of our Su family! Although the death penalty can be avoided, the punishment of life cannot be escaped!"

After that, he turned to Su Jinyue and said, "Jinyue, good child, you have been wronged."
