Chapter 923: The Prince of the Duke's Mansion vs. the Black Lotus Daughter 65
Mrs. Dong didn't say anything, she just kept crying, her eyes turned red.
Yun Ting knew his son very well. The boy was very opinionated and didn't even listen to him. How could he be led by a woman?
It was said that Ji Yunhuan instigated it, but in fact it was Yun Ye’s own idea.
Once he had a little suspicion, he couldn't help but start to think carefully about everything that happened today. If Yun Ye really wanted to harm his brother, everything would make sense.
As for the manager who guards the warehouse, he is Yun Ye’s confidant, so naturally he said there was no problem with the things put into the warehouse.
Maybe there was nothing wrong with the things that went into the warehouse, but there was something wrong with what was taken out later. Anyway, Yun Ye had unimpeded access to the warehouse, and no one checked when he brought things in and out of the Duke's Mansion.
The poison in the rice paper will be gone tomorrow. As long as Yun Ye mentions that he wants a painting, Can'er will paint it in the evening. If we wait until tomorrow to have an attack, we will really not be able to find anything.
Yun Ting suddenly felt deflated and didn't want to investigate anymore.
He thought he was upright and could not tolerate any injustice, so he would punish his own son even if he made a mistake. Yun Ye was wronged, and he was determined to send Dong Shengjie to jail, even if it meant offending the Dong family and the popular Eighth Prince.
But he was afraid now. He was just an ordinary selfish mortal, and he was afraid that the results would be the same as he imagined.
He suddenly felt a little confused. Was he really wrong all these years? Ye Er always said that he favored his younger brother and was jealous of him, but brothers always have fights and quarrels. How did it end up with brothers killing each other?
Yun Ting had been tough all his life, but at this moment he felt a slight pain in his heart. He thought of Nie Ying and her instructions on the bed. He felt sorry for Ying'er because he had not raised the child well.
Yun Ye met his father's gaze and immediately realized that his father was doubting him!
He has been working against his biological father for more than ten years. He can tell what his father is thinking with just one look. It would be fine if he suspected that his father was bullying others, but Yun Ting actually suspected that he was harming his younger brother!
Yun Ye was immediately unhappy. "It's okay for my mother to doubt me. I know I'm not her biological child. She must be worried about my brother! How dare you doubt me too?"
"You never believed me since we were little! It was clearly not me who did it, but you doubted me. Am I your biological son? I sent something to my brother out of kindness, but it became my fault!"
"Yun Ting, don't look at me like that. If you really can't stand me, I'll leave right away and won't bother you anymore! What a bullshit prince! I don't want to be your prince anymore!"
The son of a bitch spoke as harshly as usual. Yun Ting thought he would be furious and want to beat the bastard up, but he was unusually calm and just felt a little tired.
He always wanted Yun Ye to study well, but he was not a good father and ultimately failed to raise a good son.
"I don't doubt you. Your brother has been poisoned, so we have to investigate. Your mother is just angry for a moment, so don't take it to heart."
Yun Ye sneered, "Yun Ting, you don't know how to lie! When did you ever say such soft words to me? Are you afraid that I will harm Madam Dong as well? You don't believe me at all!"
Yun Ye knew that what he was doing was wrong. He should investigate and find out who was framing him instead of arguing with his father here.
But he was only a sixteen-year-old boy after all, and he couldn't help but say a few words to his father. The more innocent he seemed, the angrier he got, and the more he couldn't calm down.
Mrs. Dong was ecstatic. After planning for so long, she finally saw the father and son turn against each other!
She wiped her tears and said, "Ye'er, I have always loved you very much. I consider myself a qualified mother and have never let you down. I can understand that you are jealous of your brother and are afraid that he will take your position as the crown prince, but you shouldn't be so cruel to harm your own brother!"
"That year I almost had a miscarriage. The cat suddenly rushed out and frightened me so much that I fell. I never doubted you or blamed you. I just gave the cat away."
"You have disliked Can'er since you were a child, and you always bullied him in various ways. I thought you were young and ignorant, and I couldn't bear to punish you. If the Duke wants to punish you, I will only protect you."
"I know you are close to the Crown Prince, and the Crown Prince has always been afraid of the Eighth Prince. You followed suit and even poisoned your own brother. Ye'er, is your heart made of stone? I have been good to you for more than ten years, but I still can't warm your heart!"
Yun Ye felt a chill in his heart, he was not stupid, he knew Madam Dong liked his younger brother more, but after more than ten years of mother-son relationship, he treated Madam Dong like his own mother, yet it turned out that he could not warm Madam Dong's heart.
Yes, if she already had a biological son, why would she care about this son who was not related by blood? They were a family of three, and he was the prince, but he was still an outsider!
Nie Caixing was peeking at the door. Ji Yunhuan knew that the time had come. She held Yun Ye's hand tightly and interrupted what he was about to say.
"Huan'er believes that the prince would not do such a thing. Since you want to investigate, why not search the servants' rooms first to see if there is anything suspicious. Words are not enough, we still need to see evidence."
Ji Yunhuan's words broke the deadlock. Yun Ting didn't believe that he could find anything. If he really wanted to harm someone, how could he keep the evidence? But he didn't want to argue with his son anymore, so he waved his hand and asked people to search.
Soon, the guards found a stack of rice paper in Zhou Wang's house.
Ji Yunhuan took the lead and said, "It is obvious that Zhou Wang replaced the rice paper and harmed the second young master. As for who was behind it, we have to interrogate them slowly. The other servants are innocent and don't have to suffer anymore."
The other servants were naturally grateful that their suspicion had been cleared.
Madam Dong stared at Zhou Wang viciously and shouted angrily, "Drag him away and beat him to death!"
Ji Yunhuan said, "Madam, why are you so anxious? You have to give him a chance to explain. This servant is really not conscientious in his work. He didn't even know to burn the replaced rice paper. Isn't this just giving people a handle? It's as if he was deliberately waiting for someone to search for him."
Madam Dong wanted to kill Ji Yunhuan. Why did she search the servants' yard? She had clearly asked Zhou Wang to burn the evidence. This idiot must have been blinded by money and wanted to sell it, so he let people find it.
If Yun Ye wanted to harm someone, how could he leave such an obvious handle? If this thing is found out, the traces of frame-up will be too obvious!
She just wanted to make sure that the Duke could not find any evidence and could only hastily punish a few servants, but Yun Can was poisoned, so this matter could only be blamed on Yun Ye!
Madam Dong kicked Zhou Wang in anger, "You black-hearted thing! You are a servant of Yuhua Court, but you can't obey the prince in everything. Can't you tell right from wrong? You have committed such a heinous crime, and the evidence is complete. You don't have to send him to the government. Just beat him to death!"
