Seeing this, Duan Yu hurriedly said, "If you have anything else to say, say it all in one breath!"
After all, he didn't know what was going on, so even if he wanted to speak up for them, he was powerless!
Biyu wiped her tears and glanced at Duan Shishi, obviously feeling a little afraid.
Then she gritted her teeth, looking determined, and said, "I dare not hide it from you, young master. In fact, the young lady already knows all the truth about the death of the eldest lady..."
Upon hearing this, Duan Sijin and Duan Yu were both very surprised.
The eldest lady is the biological mother of Duan Sijin and Duan Shishi.
Outsiders only thought that the first wife died of childbirth complications, but in fact, she was killed by the second wife.
The second wife wanted to take the first wife's position, so she secretly poisoned the first wife, causing her to die in childbirth.
However, Duan Shishi had just been born, so she naturally didn't know about these things. For the sake of family harmony, Duan Hong didn't want these scandals to spread, so he forbade the servants to talk about these things.
Those servants who knew the truth were all driven away, and the new servants had no idea about these things. How could Duan Shishi know?
“Who said that!”
Duan Shishi choked up and said, "Who cares who said that?! Her mother killed my mother, so what if I just scared her and bullied her?! She's still alive and well, but my mother can't come back!"
"That was the Second Madam's fault. What does it have to do with Xi'er?! You know exactly what kind of life she's been leading these years. Even if it's just paying off a debt, it was paid off when you sent people to hunt her down and destroy her innocence!"
Biyu added, "Master! The young lady is so angry, not just because of the Madam, there are other reasons!"
After a pause, she continued, "I don't know where the eldest young lady heard this rumor, but she actually claimed that she was the eldest lady's child and wanted to take back the position of the legitimate young lady. The second young lady initially ignored it, but she repeatedly approached you and the master, just to sow discord!"
"Coincidentally, during that time, the young lady heard that there was an object outside this domain that, if placed in water and used to test kinship through blood, could turn blood relatives into non-blood relatives, and non-blood relatives into blood relatives. The young lady was terrified, worried that her plan would succeed, so she hired assassins to hunt her down! If the young lady hadn't shown mercy, she wouldn't have been able to escape from the general's mansion, even running so far to the cliff!"
"I didn't want to kill her, but... I didn't expect her to actually jump off a cliff and commit suicide. Young Miss has been extremely worried and has been secretly searching for her. I was originally happy to know she returned safely, but she attached herself to the Ninth Prince. Young Miss just didn't want her to use the Ninth Prince to destroy her relationship with the Young Master and the General, so she brought people to scare Young Miss and tell her not to talk nonsense..."
Biyu's words sounded flawless, but in fact they were full of flaws.
But Duan Sijin retracted his sword, not because of Biyu's words, but simply because he had regained his sanity.
Duan Shishi is the bloodline left behind by her mother at her death, and is also the only motivation for her father to live.
If she died, the family would be broken up.
No matter what Duan Shishi's reason was for wanting to kill Duan Qingxi, her actions were wrong.
Moreover, there are many ways to teach Duan Qingxi a lesson. Spending a large sum of money to hire a killer from the Killer Pavilion has a different meaning.
The killers in the Killer Pavilion only do the business of killing people and never help others to scare others.
Duan Shishi missed this point. He is not so easy to fool!
After retracting the sword, Duan Sijin looked at her coldly and said, "I don't care what your reasons are, but I'm telling you, if you dare to touch her again, I will definitely take your life!"
After saying that, the man left.
Duan Yu remained where he was. After a long while, he finally spoke: "Miss, don't blame the young master. This young lady was sent back by the Ninth Prince himself."
