~ RETRIBUTION, WHO DID GOD SPARE? ~
With great difficulty, Su Qingwu found his voice. “Even so, Father shouldn’t be so extreme. No matter how impatient you are, how can you be so forced to kill someone within the residence?”
“Do you think I want to? ” Su Wenyuan was furious, “I thought it was safe to use Su you to frame her this time. But, Mu Yunyao actually managed to escape unscathed and put the Su family in a passive situation. If this matter is tracked down, it will definitely disgrace our Su family. It even involve your grandmother! Mu Yunyao’s return this time was clearly a premeditated plan. She came to revenge the Su family! She and our Su family can no longer exist together. Once she leaves the Su family’s residence, there will no longer be any methods to restrain her!”
Su Wenyuan took a deep breath and suppressed the veins on his forehead. “Qingwu, this is how things are going. Have you thought of a way to deal with this?”
Su Qingwu opened his eyes, and Mu Yunyao’s face continuously flashed across his mind: “She’s so intelligent. She must have found out some truth about the Su family, and that’s why she tried to kill the Su family. Father, does the matter that happened that yearstill leave any evidence?”
“The midwife’s family who lied about your grandmother’s giving birth has already been exterminated. The mama that protected Su Qing had long been turned into dirt. Mu Cheng and Madam Li have also died. All the evidence on the surface has been destroyed. Mucheng alone said that there should be no clues left.”
“It’s alright if there is no clear evidence on the surface. This is the end of the matter, and it’s no use talking about it anymore. At the moment, the most important thing is to stabilize the Su family first. Father, since you have already told me the truth of the matter, then don’t act against Su Qing and Mu Yunyao without authorization. I will think of a way to resolve this matter.”
“Have you figured out how to deal with them?”
Su Qingwu shook his head: “Father, the reason why you took action against Mu Yunyao is only to protect the Su family, but the result is, Mu Yunyao is safe and sound, and almost involved the Su family in the process. Right now, the most important thing is to suppress the case of framing and murdering, and then we can think of other ways.”
The door was pushed open with a bang. The Eldest Madam’s eyes were bloodshot as she stared fixedly at Su Wenyuan. It was clear that she had heard the conversation between the father and son just now.
Su Wenyuan suddenly stood up. “When did you come over?”
The Eldest Madam turned around and closed the door, “I heard everything I should have heard, so there’s no need for you to hide anything. I really didn’t expect that your Su family would be so courageous. Not only did your Su family secretly hide the child of the Grand Princess Yi De, your Su family even said that she was from the Su family. After finding her back, not only did your Su family not giving them a proper confession, but your Su family thought of killing them to keep their mouths shut. I really don’t know how the Su family has been established in the Imperial court all these years. Don’t bother to think about it?”
“Shut up! Don’t forget that you are also from the Su family. If the Su family is unlucky, you won’t be able to escape either!”
The Eldest Madam was so angry that her chest was heaving up and down. She snorted coldly and no longer looked at Su Wenyuan. “Qingwu, what do you plan to do now?”
Su Qingwu stretched out his hand and rubbed the space between her eyebrows. “Father, let’s go meet His Royal Highness Jin Wang. I’ll go look for the Sixth Princess.”
The Eldest Madam frowned, “Jin Wang is currently being ignored by the Emperor. Will he still interfere in our Su family’s matters?”
“The archers that Yue Wang killed in our residence were borrowed from King Jin. They initially were here to protect the safety of the residence’s guests and to prevent any unforeseen events from happening on the day of the banquet. But who would have thought that they would be used to stop Mu Yunyao and Su Qing in the end. They were caught by Yue Wang, and the matter was implicated on him. He had to intervene no matter what. Even though the Jin Wangs abilities are limited, he still has a favored concubine behind him who can play some role.”
The Eldest Madam coldly snorted, “If I were to say so, we shouldn’t have brought Mu Yunyao and Su Qing back.”
“As long as they’re still alive, the things that year are in danger of being exposed. Someone was already investigating the cause of Mu Cheng’s death. Even if Mu Yunyao and Su Qing weren’t brought back, someone would have found them sooner or later.”
The Eldest Madam gritted her teeth. “What’s the use of you arguing with me? You should have saved your energy to see the Old Madam. I heard from the servant that the Old Madam had a stroke and could no longer speak or get out of bed.”
Su Wenyuan quickly stood up and walked towards Ning He Garden. The Old Madam was the pillar supporting the Su family. If this pillar fell, the Su family would collapse.

When Su Wenyuan arrived at Ning He Garden, Wen Mama and Doctor Lin were preparing to feed the Old Madame medicine.
“Mother....”
When Old Madam saw Sun Wenyuan, she widened her eyes and waved her fingers in the air as if she was anxious to say something.
Su Wenyuan immediately stepped forward and held her hand. “Mother, don’t worry. If you have anything to say, just say it slowly.”
“Ah… Ah....” The Old Madam glared fiercely at Wen Mama and Doctor Lin, as if she wanted to use her gaze to slow them down. Just now, when Doctor Lin had used a silver needle to stab her throat, she was suddenly speechless. These two wretched people had already been fully bribed by Mu Yunyao. F*ck off, or else I’ll be killed by them sooner or later!
Su Wenyuan didn’t understand. Seeing that the Old Madam was looking at Wen Mama, he couldn’t help but ask, “Wen Mama, what does the Old Madam mean by this?”
Wen Mama came forward with a bowl of medicine. “Master, you know the Old Madam’s temperament as well. She’s always been strong, and is now very ill. She must be very anxious and uneasy because she is lying in bed and couln’t speak. Please ask the imperial physician to come over as soon as possible and take a look at the Old Madam.”
Su Wenyuan’s expression became ugly. “Mother, since the Su family is in such a predicament, for the Imperial Physician… it’s not easy to invite them in now. I’ll first find a doctor outside to help take a look at you. Please rest assured, Mother, you can recover from your illness as soon as possible.”
“Master, this is the medicine that Doctor Lin has prescribed to nourish the body. Feed it to the Old Madame while it’s still hot.”
Old Madam’s expression became even more terrified. Since she found out that Wen Mama and Doctor Lin had been bribed by Mu Yunyao, how could she dare to drink the medicine prepared by the two of them? Her hands instantly waved even more fiercely as she cried out with a face full of rejection.
Wen Mama walked up to persuade her. “Madam, this servant knows that you’re feeling anxious, but it’s no good not drinking the medicine. You’re the backbone of the Su family. The more time comes, the more you should be able to keep your composure.”
The Old Madam panted heavily. She wanted Su Wenyuan to kill Wen Mama and Doctor Lin, but she couldn’t say anything.
Su Wenyuan couldn’t bear to see her like this. He stood up and gave the seat to Wen Mama, “The two of you have been following the Old Madam for quite some time. Now, take good care of her and let the Old Madam get better as soon as possible. I still have things to do, so I’ll be leaving first.”
Wen Mama bent her knees and bowed. “Rest assured, Master. The servants will definitely take good care of the Old Madam.”
