Chapter 258: Such a small matter cannot be handled properly



"Keep investigating. I don't believe this man in the dark hasn't left any clues. Didn't you say that he has a lot of jewelry and banknotes? The clue about the eunuch has been cut off, so let's follow these to investigate."

"Yes, I'll go right away." After Su Peisheng retreated, the Fourth Master's eyes were filled with terrifying murderous intent and coldness.

Following those things, five days later, Su Peisheng successfully found Yuesha, who was beside Li Gege.

Li Gege was having lunch when Su Peisheng rushed in with his men.

Seeing so many people, Li Gege stood up in surprise and asked, "Eunuch Su, what are you doing?"

"I'm sorry, Li Gege. I'm investigating a matter under the orders of my master, and I just happened to find that Miss Yuesha, who is by your side, is a suspect. I beg your forgiveness, Li Gege."

"Someone, come and take the person away from me." Su Peisheng looked at Yuesha with a serious expression.

Li was panicked for a moment, then stepped forward and said calmly with a smile: "Eunuch Su, Yuesha has been serving me all the time, how could she have done anything? Are you mistaken?"

"Whether there is any mistake or not, I will investigate and find out. It's better for Li Gege not to meddle in other people's business." He glanced at the person behind him and said in a cold voice, "Take him away."

"Eunuch Su~" Li Gege was a little flustered.

The expression on Yuesha's face when he was caught was very calm, without any panic or fear.

Knowing that the young eunuch was dead, she knew that she would be found out, it was just a matter of time.

It’s just a pity that it was discovered so quickly, and the baby in Concubine Wen’s belly was still alive and well. If she had known earlier, she would have given a higher dosage.

Then he looked at Li Gege and said, "Gege, all of this was done by this servant. It has nothing to do with you. But I can no longer serve you. You must be well."

"Yuesha, you..." Li looked at her in disbelief.

Then Yuesha was taken away.

Seeing this, Li didn't even bother to eat. She took Nanny Fang to the front yard to apologize.

But when she arrived at the front yard, the Fourth Master did not see her and just let her kneel outside.

After Yuesha was taken to the interrogation place, before Su Peisheng started the interrogation, Yuesha took the initiative to tell the whole story from beginning to end.

She took everything on herself. Even if the master would vent his anger on the princess, at least the princess could save her life. For the sake of the eldest princess, she believed that the master would not kill the princess.

After explaining everything, Yuesha bit her tongue and committed suicide.

She bit so hard that Su Peisheng couldn't save her even if he wanted to.

Because the man died right under his nose twice, Su Peisheng's face looked particularly ugly at the moment.

After having the person sent away, he returned to the main courtyard and told his master everything Yuesha had said.

After hearing this, the Fourth Master was silent for a moment, his eyes dark and deep. Just when Su Peisheng's heart began to beat fast, there was a "click" and a cup fell to the ground in front of him.

Su Peisheng was so scared that his legs went weak and he knelt on the ground.

"Su Peisheng, you're really becoming more and more useless. You can't even handle such a small matter, and you can kill someone right under your nose."

Hearing the Fourth Master's cold voice, it felt as if the air had frozen, making people feel unhappy from the bottom of their hearts.

"It's my fault. I deserve to die." Su Peisheng didn't expect that Yuesha would be so cruel to him and even dared to bite his tongue to commit suicide.

"Go and accept the punishment yourself. If something like this happens again next time, someone else will take your seat."

"Yes." Su Peisheng stood up tremblingly and walked out.

"Li~" The Fourth Master whispered these two words.

——

Wen Mianmian also received news that the previous incident was done by Yuesha, who was close to Li, and she has admitted that she did all these things alone.

Pick all the Li's offspring cleanly.

Wen Mianmian didn't know that there was such a loyal and courageous person around Li.

He was even willing to sacrifice his own life to protect Li.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that this matter was definitely related to the Li family.

But Yuesha was already dead and could not testify, and those jewelry were not Li's. They were all exchanged by Yuesha outside, and Li did not do it herself, so in the end Li was punished by the Fourth Master to be confined to her house for half a year.

Wen Mianmian was actually unwilling to accept this. It was bad enough that Li had harmed her, but this time she actually wanted to harm her child. She couldn't tolerate this. No matter what, she had to teach Li a lesson, and it had to be an unforgettable lesson.

Just do it when you think of it. Wen Mianmian called Xiaobai and Wang An in.

The two men and the tiger discussed for a long time in the house.

The Fourth Master knew that Mianmian must be feeling uncomfortable when she heard that Li was only punished with house arrest, so he came to Zizhu Courtyard tonight. Seeing that Mianmian was doing fine as usual and not disturbed by that incident at all, the Fourth Master suddenly felt a little distressed.

He took Wen Mianmian's hand, and they walked to the bed and sat down. "Mianmian, I'm sorry. I know you're not satisfied with this result, but the servant next to Li is dead. There's no one to testify against her, and there's no evidence to prove that she was the one who ordered it, so I only punished her with house arrest for six months."

If it weren't for the eldest princess, the Fourth Master might have punished her by grounding her house for a longer period of time.

Wen Mianmian said softly, "Master, you don't have to apologize to me. It's really hard to convict her directly without evidence. Master, it's already very good that you have her confined for six months."

"Fortunately, the baby in my belly is fine, otherwise, Master's actions would really make me feel uncomfortable."

The Fourth Master is very sentimental. Li had been favored before, so there was always some difference in the Fourth Master's heart. However, this difference would gradually disappear as Li committed suicide again and again.

One day, the Fourth Master will completely hate Li. If Li does not change, these things will become the fuse for the future, until something completely breaks out.

"This is my fault. You must not be unhappy. You should know that you are pregnant." The Fourth Master caressed her belly with tender eyes.

Mianmian's belly is very big now, and sometimes the Fourth Master feels a little worried when he sees her, fearing that she might fall down accidentally.

After all, this was the first time that the Fourth Master had seen such a big belly.

When Fu Jin and Li were pregnant before, their bellies were not as big as Mian Mian's.

The Fourth Master was not with Mianmian when she was pregnant, otherwise he would not be so surprised to see Wen Mianmian's big belly this time.

"Of course I know this, hiss..." Wen Mianmian felt her legs cramping again.

"Mianmian, what's wrong with you?" The Fourth Master felt worried and nervous when he saw her frowning.

"My leg is cramping and it hurts a little." She couldn't move her legs.
