They are already in the open and cannot be exposed again.
The emperor signaled the other secret guards of the Shen Mansion who were hiding in the dark to follow.
"Greetings to mother." Xu Lingyi bowed politely.
When Old Madam Shen saw her coquettish and charming appearance, she felt furious.
At first glance, she is a lowly creature.
"Ms. Xu, kneel down!" Old Madam Shen spoke directly.
Xu Lingyi stood there in a daze. She raised her head as if she didn't know what was going on.
Her eyes were red, and she asked softly, "Mother, did your daughter-in-law do something wrong? Or is there some misunderstanding?"
"Hmph! Look for yourself!"
Mother Shen threw the handkerchief in front of Xu Lingyi: "My son has just left Beijing for a few days, and you can't stand the loneliness and hook up with other men. If I had known you were so fickle, I shouldn't have welcomed you into the house that day."
"My son is now favored by His Majesty and has a bright future. Instead of being grateful, you have some evil thoughts. The Shen family will not let you stay."
Xu Lingyi knelt on the ground. She felt so humiliated and wronged that tears poured out like a flood, and her black eyes were filled with tears.
Her face was pale, but she still shook her head weakly yet firmly to explain, "Mother, I really didn't do anything wrong to my husband. I didn't. I rarely go out, so how could I have the opportunity to meet a man outside my husband?"
"So, is this handkerchief yours?" Old Madam Shen said sternly, "Your name is embroidered on it. I compared it with the brocade bag you embroidered, and it's clearly your workmanship. But now this handkerchief is in the guard's possession. Now that you've been caught red-handed, you still dare to quibble."
Old Madam Shen was eager to convict Xu Lingyi, so of course she didn't care what she said and wouldn't listen at all.
"Someone, cover this bitch's mouth."
Old Madam Shen's face was already festering, and now her expression was so ferocious, making her look as terrifying as Yama. In contrast, Xu Lingyi looked particularly pitiful and innocent.
"Regarding what you did, I should have put you in a pig cage."
When the emperor, who was hiding on the beam, heard these words, his face turned gloomy and his eyes instantly became as sharp as two swords.
If this old woman really dares to do this, he will skin her alive and tear her apart!
"Since the two children pleaded for you, I will drive you to the farm and imprison you. You are not allowed to leave."
This was the solution proposed by Shen Rou and Shen Su, to save Xu Lingyi's life first.
If Xu is dead, she might risk everything to resist and make the matter worse, which will not be good for them.
Because this story is fabricated.
Their evidence and methods were exceptionally poor.
It would be better to spare her life first and then poison her to death later.
