Moreover, Ye Jintang also had a token in his possession.
Making trouble in the Huisheng Hall will do them no good at all.
Since Ye Jintang revealed that his wife had gone to the Marquis's residence and even mentioned Xue Rou's name, he was determined to find out the truth about this matter.
Inside the Marquis's residence.
Jiang Mubai was equally surprised by the sudden arrival of the Minister's wife with her entourage.
"Madam Minister, may I ask what brings you here today?"
In his words, Jiang Mubai was quite polite, taking into account the other party's status.
"Lord Jiang, are you really completely unaware of Su He poisoning my daughter?"
The Minister's wife was anxious to find Su He's whereabouts, so she didn't beat around the bush with Jiang Mubai and immediately questioned him.
Faced with the questioning, Jiang Mubai's expression suddenly changed.
He had a bad feeling in his heart.
Regarding Su He's matter, hadn't he tried to direct all the blame at Ye Jintang? Why would the Minister's wife still bring people here?
They might even use a questioning tone directly.
Jiang Mubai felt a vague unease as he thought about this. Could it be that something had happened to Xue Rou again?
Although Jiang Mubai had countless doubts in his heart about this matter, it was true that Su Xuerou was now his wife.
If anything happens to Su Xuerou, he, as the Marquis, will definitely be implicated as well.
How could Jiang Mubai allow such a thing to happen?
"Lord Jiang, do you perhaps intend to protect Su Xuerou?"
Seeing that Jiang Mubai remained silent for a long time, the Minister's wife's expression grew increasingly gloomy.
Jiang Mubai suppressed his unease and replied to the Minister's wife, "Minister's wife, I am also heartbroken about what happened to Miss Su, but you brought these people here, so just say that the matter is related to my wife."
“Everything must be based on evidence. Madam Qing, please produce the evidence.”
"Lord Jiang, I haven't even seen Su Xuerou yet and you're already asking me for evidence. Could it be that you've done something wrong and are afraid to face anyone?"
After hearing Jiang Mubai's words, the Minister's wife became even more assertive.
"Madam, what are you doing?"
Before Jiang Mubai could answer, another voice came from Minister Su, who had left Huisheng Hall.
"You've come at the right time, sir. I was just about to ask Lord Jiang for an explanation regarding Su Xuerou's poisoning of He'er."
"Nonsense!"
Minister Su frowned, then lowered his voice as he realized there were outsiders present.
“Madam, this is the Marquis’s residence after all. It is quite improper for you to bring people here like this.”
If it were anything else, the Minister's wife would have been more restrained, but when it came to her own daughter...
The Minister's wife disregarded all else and retorted to Minister Su, "My lord, I have always turned a blind eye to Su Xuerou's identity, but how have you treated He'er?"
"Or are you also aware of Su Xuerou's poisoning of He'er and framing Ye Jintang?"
Jiang Mubai, who had been relieved by the arrival of Minister Su, felt a pang of unease when he heard the Minister's wife mention Ye Jintang.
In that instant, he understood what had happened.
So it turns out that the Minister's wife came here again because of Ye Jintang's instigation.
However, the Minister's wife is now convinced that Xue Rou was the one who poisoned Su He, and even if that is true, he absolutely cannot admit it.
Minister Su was taken aback, clearly not expecting his wife to speak so frankly about these matters.
Could it be that Xue Rou was the one who poisoned He'er?
Although Minister Su had his doubts, he knew that now was not the time to pursue this matter.
"Mu Bai, since things have come to this point, let Xue Rou come out and clear up the misunderstanding."
Minister Su immediately addressed Jiang Mubai.
Seeing this, Jiang Mubai had no choice but to nod, but the maid who went to report soon returned.
"Where is the Second Madam? Why didn't she come with you?"
Seeing that there was only one maidservant, Jiang Mubai's face showed a hint of displeasure.
"Replying to your question, Lord Marquis, the Second Madam is not currently in the manor."
"Not...not in the manor?"
This shocked Jiang Mubai even more than the fact that the Minister's wife had pointed the finger at Su Xuerou.
The Minister's wife immediately realized something was wrong, and then she thought of Su He, who had disappeared from Huisheng Hall.
Su Xuerou's current absence from the manor is likely related to this matter.
Thinking of this, the Minister's wife immediately asked the maid, "Do you know where she has gone now?"
The maid shook her head, equally puzzled as to where Su Xuerou had gone.
“It has always been Cui’er who has been serving the Second Madam. I’m afraid only she knows this. But when I went there, not only was the Second Madam not there, but Cui’er was not there either.”
"It seems that the Second Madam left with Cui'er."
...
The events that occurred inside the Marquis's residence were quickly relayed to Ye Jintang by the little bee.
Recently, perhaps because of Baymax, there have been more small animals gathering near Huishengtang.
This gave Ye Jintang room to maneuver.
If these resources could be utilized, it would undoubtedly form a strong and tightly-knit intelligence network.
Unfortunately, she had also sent these small animals to search for Ye He's whereabouts these past few days, but all to no avail.
If it weren't for the divination indicating that the person was still in the capital, she might have searched in another direction.
Ye He's martial arts skills have not fully recovered. If there are still no clues by now, there is only one possibility: his current situation is most likely that he is under restriction.
If that's the case, then it's dangerous.
Every moment of delay will make the current situation even more unfavorable.
Although she didn't know Ye He's whereabouts, she learned about Su He and Su Xuerou's location from these small animals.
Now that Su Xuerou has fallen into Su He's hands, things are about to get interesting.
The best way to deal with these people is not to take direct action yourself, but to let them fight amongst themselves.
In this way, if the matter becomes too serious and people are held accountable, no one will be able to escape.
Meow.
A white cat darted in, followed closely by Green Lotus.
"Miss, did you see a white cat just now?"
Green Lotus looked around. She clearly saw the cat dart into the backyard, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Here it is."
Ye Jintang pointed towards the corner.
Following the direction Ye Jintang pointed, Lühe saw a white cat curled up in a corner.
Hearing the noise, Da Bai also looked over and barked.
[Where did this stray cat come from, daring to trespass on my territory?]
Ye Jintang was speechless for a moment.
Sometimes she really wanted to throw Big White out, to let it truly experience whose territory it was.
Don't arrest me.
Meow.
[I'm here to deliver intelligence. A few days ago, while I was foraging, I found a person lying on the ground covered in blood, surrounded by a lot of dark mist. I don't know if this matches the person you're looking for.]
Dark fog.
Ye Jintang hesitated. Could the white cat be referring to a malevolent aura? As for whether the man covered in blood was actually Ye He, that remained to be investigated.
Seeing that Lühe was about to take the white cat away, Ye Jintang said, "Lühe, leave this cat here for now."
