She kowtowed desperately: "I won't dare to do it again! Never again! Please don't report it to the police, Miss Third!"
Facing Ying'er's confession, Fu Rongxin breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately changed her expression to one of indignation: "Ying'er, when have I ever treated you unfairly? Why did you do such a shameless thing! How can I live with myself after you leave me!"
Fu Jiamin was relentless, saying, "It's better to sell this bitch off. But before selling her off, she should be severely tortured to make this dishonest girl tell the truth!"
Xue Zhiyi couldn't help but sneer in his heart. Such a loyal servant must have helped Fu Rongxin to do so many things in his previous life.
She thought this in her heart, but her face still showed concern. "Rongxin, no one will blame you, but out of caution, you should deal with Ying'er properly. Otherwise, I'm afraid you will implicate my sister for nothing."
"Zhi Yi!"
How could Fu Ling not see Fu Rongxin's thoughts? Seeing that Xue Zhiyi was about to pursue the matter further, she immediately shouted, "Shut up!"
Xue Zhiyi was slightly stunned. She didn't expect Fu Ling to favor Fu Rongxin in public.
Fu Ling's hands were pinching the bodhi bead bracelet, making a creaking sound. "The matter has been settled. Do you still want to embarrass your cousin?"
Although she calls her cousin, Fu Ling almost subconsciously uses half of her shoulder to shield Fu Rongxin behind her, like protecting her own child. It can be seen that the mother and daughter have a deep love.
"Mother, I just want to clear my cousin's name. As Prince Gong said, I don't want to leave things unclear and let rumors spread."
"Strict interrogation can get you any answer you need, but now you are interrogating the people around your cousin like this. What exactly do you want to achieve?" Fu Ling's tone was calm, but his eyes were frighteningly cold.
"You know whether you have good intentions or not."
Behind Fu Ling, Fu Rongxin was also stunned for a moment. Then, she raised her eyebrows and looked at Xue Zhiyi, with a hint of provocation on her pitiful face.
Yes, what is there to be afraid of? Her mother still has the final say in this family. As long as her parents are there, what can Xue Zhiyi, a lowly orphan, do to her?
Although he no longer had any hope in Fu Ling, Xue Zhiyi's heart still ached for a moment.
The people present were not fools, and were no strangers to the secrets of the harem. The relationship between the Fu sisters was visibly bad, and Fu Rongxin did have reason to harm Fu Jiamin and Fu Jiahui, but what Ying'er said was so far-fetched.
And even if it is true as Ying'er said, it was also because Fu Rongxin did not exercise enough self-discipline. It can't be said that Xue Zhiyi was making things difficult for Fu Rongxin.
Besides, what mother would publicly label her own daughter like that? And for the sake of her niece, anyway?
Fu Ling's partiality is a bit too obvious.
This was probably the first time that Fu Ling, who had pretended to be a loving mother for many years, revealed her flaws in front of others.
