In fact, it was not just Nanny Wan. The twelve people kneeling on the ground were all from the Rong family.
Two old women, two head maids, four second-class maids, and four maids for menial tasks.
On the second day of her confinement after her miscarriage, Chen Wu replaced all the people in the yard with the Rong family to serve her.
Because they were only in Shen Wu's Lanyuan and cooked their own meals, Su Qingyu didn't say much at the time.
Looking at these cunning slaves at this moment, Su Qingyu even wanted to kill them.
"The prince's wet nurse? What a prestigious title! Then why was Nanny Wan chasing after our Shen family's maid just now?"
Nanny Wan also knew that the Shen family would not let this matter go now that the matter had been exposed. However, she was not panicked. After all, she was a servant of the Rong Junwang Mansion. How could the Third Lady of the Shen family dare to touch her?
Once she returns to the palace, the prince and his wife will not do anything to her.
Thinking of this, the heart that had been hanging in the air just now was completely relieved.
"In reply to Madam Shen San, I just saw that maid acting suspiciously, so I wanted to follow her out to see what was going on."
Su Qingyu sneered, "Sneaky? I thought Madam was Rong Shizi's accomplice."
Nanny Wan smiled wryly and said, "Madam, you are too kind. Just now, the Third Miss of the Shen family took advantage of our Madam's carelessness to seduce our Young Master."
"Madam was so angry that she scolded my sister. Unexpectedly, the third lady also insulted our Madam. Our Madam stepped forward and hit her twice, while the prince intervened."
"Speaking of which, our wife is in the wrong. Even if my sister is a promiscuous woman, she can't hit anyone."
This was something Chen Wu had instructed beforehand. No matter when it was exposed, he had to insist that it was Chen Yue who seduced Rong Huai. These servants were the witnesses.
Li Yunzhou, who was sitting on the side, shouted, "You old hag, what nonsense are you talking about? Do you believe I'll cut off your tongue?"
If Su Qingyu had not been still there, Li Yunzhou would have wanted to kill this old woman with a single sword.
Li Yunzhou lowered his eyelids, feeling a little regretful. "Master's Wife... probably wouldn't do anything to these people; they were Rong family members after all." But it didn't matter. He would settle the accounts he owed Chen Yue in full.
The murderous aura surged around him, but was suppressed by him.
Su Qingyu stared at Nanny Wan and the people behind her with cold eyes. Those people had similar expressions to Nanny Wan, thinking that Su Qingyu didn't dare to do anything to them.
"What do you think? Did the Third Miss really seduce Prince Rong?"
Everyone said the same thing in unison, the same as what Nanny Wan said.
"Call Jiang Qi in." Su Qingyu ordered coldly.
She didn't want to waste time talking to these stubborn slaves, so she decided to do it instead of talking.
Not long after, Jiang Qi walked in. "Madam, what are your instructions?"
Su Qingyu looked at the twelve people on the ground and said, "Drag them away and beat them to death. Cover their mouths and don't let anyone know."
After these words were spoken, Li Yunzhou looked at Su Qingyu in surprise. The cold murderous aura emanating from her made him feel particularly familiar and close.
Nanny Wan was horrified. "We are all servants of the Rong family. The Third Madam has no right to kill us."
Su Qingyu's face was expressionless. "Servants of the Rong family? If you make me angry, I'll send your prince down to accompany you."
After receiving the order, Jiang Qi ordered his men to shut these people's mouths and take them away.
There was no sound outside, an eerie silence. But everyone in the hall knew that these twelve people were about to die.
"Fei Cui, send someone to ask if the Third Master has returned home. If he has, ask him to come to the Orchid Garden immediately."
The matter involves the Rong family, and many things are beyond her control. The harem and the court are closely related. Shen Yue's revenge must be avenged, and the affairs of the court cannot be taken lightly.
Feicui agreed and went out to send Xiangcao, a second-class maid from the west courtyard, back.
But before Vanilla came back, Pearl hurried in.
"Madam, please go to the woodshed and take a look. Something serious has happened."
Su Qingyu frowned, stood up and walked out, "What's wrong?"
Zhenzhu took two deep breaths. "I just went into the bathroom to get some cotton towels for the Third Miss, wanting to wipe her face. But she took advantage of my inattention and went to the woodshed to settle accounts with the First Miss and Prince Rong."
Su Qingyu walked quickly towards the woodshed, and Zhenzhu followed her and continued talking.
"When I arrived, the three of them were already fighting. The Third Miss was holding an axe, and Rong Shizi was holding a knife. When he swung the knife at the Third Miss, she dodged and was caught on a piece of wood on the ground, falling to the side."
Su Qingyu's face was terribly gloomy. "Is the Third Miss okay?"
Li Yunzhou also followed behind with an anxious look on his face, wishing he could fly to the woodshed.
Pearl's face was filled with fear. "The third young lady is fine, but...but the eldest young lady was about to hit the third young lady. When the third young lady fell, the eldest young lady fell forward."
"Prince Rong's knife slashed the main meridian in the young lady's neck. Blood spurted out directly. From the looks of it, it seems...she's in great danger."
"I have already sent for the doctor and have had the Third Young Lady brought out of the woodshed."
Su Qingyu was relieved to hear that Shen Yue was fine. As for Shen Wu, she had done something wrong herself, and her death at Rong Huai's hands was probably retribution.
Li Yunzhou couldn't help but mutter, "She got it for free."
Su Qingyu glanced at Li Yunzhou. The fourth young master of the Li family had always been a patient person. Why was he so naive today? Could he even say such words?
She pretended not to hear and quickly led people to the woodshed.
Shen Yue was being supported by two maids, leaning against the wall outside the woodshed.
The white hem of her skirt was stained with blood. She looked at the door of the woodshed in fear from time to time, as if there was something terrible inside.
Su Qingyu felt distressed and hurriedly walked over to Shen Yue and hugged her, "Okay, Third Aunt is here."
Shen Yue hugged Su Qingyu tightly, "Aunt San, I didn't mean to do that. I didn't know she would die, and I didn't mean to kill her."
Shen Yue was terrified. Shen Wu died right before her eyes. She had just been recalling the previous scene. If it wasn't Shen Wu who died, then she would have died.
She didn't know that Chen Wu was going to rush over, she just wanted to avoid him.
Su Qingyu hugged Shen Yue tightly and gently stroked her still trembling back.
"You're right. Chen Wu is committing suicide. It's none of your business. What's wrong with you avoiding her? No matter who is in danger, you will avoid them."
Li Yunzhou looked at Shen Yue with heartache, and hated Rong Huai and Shen Wu in his heart. Such a good girl was bullied and frightened by them.
Su Qingyu let go of Shen Yue and told Zhenzhu to take good care of her. She then walked towards the door of the woodshed, determined to see what was going on inside.
Before she could go in, she saw Rong Huai walking out with a bloody dagger in his hand.
Rong Huai had a blank expression and a dull look on his face.
He looked past Su Qingyu at Shen Yue not far away and suddenly spoke loudly.
"It's all your fault. You killed your eldest sister."
