Meanwhile, Ye Jintang had arrived at the Dali Temple. The Dali Temple Minister stepped forward and bowed to her, saying, "Thanks to the information provided by Miss Ye, things have come to a head so quickly."
"Those two burly men were acting under the orders of Wang Bao, and behind Wang Bao was Su Xuerou."
Upon hearing this information, Ye Jintang nodded and smiled at the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, "My lord, Su Xuerou alone should be able to manage it."
"I am still investigating this matter further. I have brought Miss Su here."
After speaking, the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review gave a wink to the person next to him.
Soon, Su Xuerou was brought forward by the guards. At first, Su Xuerou's eyes were full of dissatisfaction. "Who are you people? Why did you bring me here!"
"Does being from the Dali Temple give you the right to act recklessly?"
"How dare you! You must not be so disrespectful in front of Lord Shen, the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review!"
Seeing that Su Xuerou was still saying rude things, the surrounding guards immediately reprimanded her.
Su Xuerou frowned and followed the gaze to Lord Shen, but her eyes were drawn to another figure.
Her expression froze, and she almost exclaimed in astonishment, "Ye Jintang, what are you doing here?"
"Is my being arrested here related to you?"
The moment Su Xuerou saw Ye Jintang appear, she understood what was going on.
"What does it have to do with me?" Ye Jintang scoffed, her voice filled with disdain.
"Su Xuerou, you brought all of this on yourself."
“Wang Bao, and those two burly men who caused trouble at the Rehabilitation Hall, are also directly related to you.”
"What are you saying? I don't understand what you're saying at all!"
Su Xuerou gritted her teeth and said resentfully, not knowing why she felt inexplicably guilty when she met Ye Jintang's gaze.
I have a feeling that Ye Jintang already knows everything without me even realizing it, but she has done some things very discreetly, and even used the power of that side.
There's no way Ye Jintang could possibly know that.
While Su Xuerou was still arguing about this matter, Jiang Mubai had already arrived at Dali Temple.
"My lord, Lord Jiang has arrived."
As the guards reported, Su Xuerou's eyes, which had been filled with worry, gradually brightened with joy.
Brother Mu Bai must have known she was in trouble and came here to rescue her. Thinking of this, Su Xuerou glared fiercely at Ye Jintang again.
With Jiang Mubai around, let's see what Ye Jintang has to say now!
"Lord Jiang, what brings you here?"
The Minister of the Court of Judicial Review stepped forward first and addressed Jiang Mubai, who was walking towards him.
"I am..." Jiang Mubai hadn't finished speaking when he heard a woman's exclamation from ahead.
"Brother Mu Bai, save me."
Jiang Mubai frowned. This voice sounded so much like Xue Rou's, but she was clearly in the manor when he left. How could she be here?
"Brother Mubai..." Su Xuerou's voice came again. Jiang Mubai followed the sound and saw two guards standing next to Su Xuerou.
"Lord Shen, what are you doing?"
After confirming that the person was indeed Su Xuerou, Jiang Mubai's face darkened, and he asked the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review a question.
At the same time, Jiang Mubai also noticed Ye Jintang's presence, and his anger immediately flared up.
Even without thinking, he could guess that this matter was related to that poisonous woman, Ye Jintang.
Not content with the incidents at Zuixianju and Huishengtang, they've now turned their attention to Xue Rou.
Absolutely unforgivable!
Faced with Jiang Mubai's questioning, the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review remained extremely calm.
"Lord Jiang, what is your relationship with this Miss Su?"
Jiang Mubai froze, unsure of how to begin.
"Miss Su is my concubine whom I have never married."
"Since you haven't even entered the door, then it doesn't matter."
The Minister of the Court of Judicial Review said.
"This Miss Su instructed Wang Bao and the strong man to deliberately cause trouble under the pretext that there was something wrong with the medicinal materials from Huishengtang. After investigation, this official has confirmed that this is indeed the case."
Upon hearing this, Su Xuerou panicked and hurriedly said to Jiang Mubai, "Brother Mubai, I didn't. I don't know any Wang Bao, let alone any strong man."
“I have been staying at the Marquis’s residence all this time and have not left.”
Jiang Mubai nodded, believing Su Xuerou's words.
He was more inclined to believe Ye Jintang was more relevant to these matters than Su Xuerou.
Su Xuerou understood this in her heart, and looked at Ye Jintang with a sad expression, "Sister, you have disliked me since we first met, and I accept that, but how could you tell the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review that these things are related to me?"
After saying that, Su Xuerou clutched her chest, making a face as if she couldn't accept it.
Seeing Su Xuerou like this, Jiang Mubai felt even more sorry for her and joined in blaming Ye Jintang.
"Ye..." Jiang Mubai was about to call Ye Jintang by her name, but then realized that they were at the Dali Temple and some things would be inappropriate, so he changed his words and said, "Madam, didn't I explain Xue Rou's matter to you before?"
Why are you still like this?
"So what?"
Jiang Mubai and Su Xuerou tried to overwhelm Ye Jintang with their imposing manner.
But Ye Jintang completely ignored this and asked the two men in return, "Does Lord Jiang mean demoting his wife to a concubine, or favoring his concubine over his wife?"
"Oh, I forgot, Lord Jiang values his reputation the most. He hasn't even welcomed her into the manor yet, so she must be a confidante who can't be presented to the public."
"It's ungrateful."
Some people laughed out loud, and the woman looked at Jiang Mubai with strange eyes.
Jiang Mubai's past, from a failed scholar to a military general, and even to the title of Marquis, is easily traced by anyone who is willing to investigate. It is not difficult to know that Jiang Mubai's success today is largely due to Ye Jintang's father.
Although General Ye is now rumored to have colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country, since there has been no specific investigation and the emperor has not made a judgment, it is ultimately just hearsay.
On the contrary, Jiang Mubai's current behavior truly confirms Ye Jintang's earlier words, making him seem somewhat ungrateful.
Jiang Mubai felt the gazes of those around him, and his face flushed red.
He was certain that Ye Jintang's words were absolutely intentional.
Did Ye Jintang realize the consequences of her words, and how they would embarrass him greatly?
That wicked woman truly is a wicked woman. If this weren't at the Dali Temple, he would definitely have slapped Ye Jintang across the face.
Let this wicked woman know what the consequences of her actions will be.
“Lord Shen, it seems that Marquis Jiang doesn’t believe it, and this Miss Su doesn’t intend to admit what she did. Why don’t we just send someone over?”
Ye Jintang's proposal was quickly approved by the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review.
Su Xuerou's heart skipped a beat, especially when she met Ye Jintang's gaze, a sense of panic inexplicably spread through her.
What does this bitch know?!
Jiang Mubai frowned, his heart filled with suspicion. When did Ye Jintang get involved with the Dali Temple?
