172. Chapter 172: A plan within a plan (4)



"General, are you still worried about Wan'er?" the eldest lady asked softly.

"Hmm." Su Zian made a heavy nasal sound.

No matter what, she was his daughter who had grown up with him, and blood was thicker than water after all.

He was extremely angry at the time, and for the sake of the Su family's reputation, he wanted to execute Wan'er. But now thinking about it carefully, there are still many strange things.

Madam Su was extremely skilled at reading people's expressions. She saw Su Zian's thoughts at a glance. She sighed and said with a look of melancholy, "General, this matter is far too strange. Perhaps... perhaps Wan'er has been wrongly accused..."

Mrs. Su knew that this was what Su Zian was thinking, so she said it on purpose to make it appear that her thoughts coincided with his, and that they were in perfect sync with each other.

Sure enough, Su Zian's eyes widened: "You think so too?"

"Yes, the more I think about it, the more confused I am. How could Wan'er do such a thing? She is usually gentle and dignified, well-mannered, and understanding of human nature. Although she is a concubine's daughter, everyone always gives a thumbs-up to the Third Miss of the Su family when they mention her. Tell me, how could such a Wan'er do something that would bring disgrace to the family?"

"You mean there's something hidden in this?" Su Zian's expression changed slightly. He had indeed suspected it, but he had no evidence.

"Yes, I feel that Wan'er's case... must have been framed by someone." Madam Su's eyes were as dark as ink, and their depth was unfathomable.

Every word she said was ordinary, but she took control of Su Zian's emotions step by step and guided him in the direction she wanted.

Madam Su had been able to maintain her unwavering favor for so many years, earning Su Zian's immense trust. It was impossible for her to not have extraordinary qualities. This subtle, gentle influence was her strength.

"Framed?!" Su Zian stood up suddenly. He walked around the room anxiously, rubbing his hands constantly, showing his inner anxiety and uneasiness.

"Yes, it must be a frame-up." Madam Su's face was calm, and she frowned slightly. "Look, how could such a coincidence happen in the world? How could the men in black just happen to sneak into Wan'er's yard? How could they not notice the fire? How could they not even notice that all their clothes and bedding were burned in the fire? This is wrong, very wrong!"

Su Zian clapped his hands!

Yes, he was so angry at that time. How could he not understand such a simple thing?

Even with all the passion, how could she not put out the fire when it was almost burning her butt? How could she not run away as soon as possible? In the end, she was still trapped in the house, waiting for them to catch her in the act?

This is simply impossible.

Madam is right, there is something seriously wrong with this matter!

Su Zian's thick brows were tightly furrowed, his expression solemn, his eyes burning with fire as he shouted hatefully, "Who framed Wan'er?! If I find him, I will tear him into pieces!"

In a rage, Su Zian slapped the yellow pear wood table, and it instantly turned into powder.

At this moment, his face was gloomy, his eyes were murderous and gleaming.

Madam Su pondered for a moment, frowned slightly, and said slowly, "Wan'er has always been well-behaved and polite. She never argues with anyone, and never makes enemies. How could someone frame her?"

Su Zian sneered, "You only know Wan'er is well-behaved, but you don't know how arrogant and domineering she is behind people's backs. If she doesn't talk about others, she'll just talk about how she treats Luo'er..."
