"I wonder if Mrs. Xue has ever considered it. Wouldn't it be easy for someone to take advantage of Miss Zhaoyan's absence and jointly blame her for such indiscretions?" Wei Linfeng looked at Mrs. Xue and asked.

.

When Mrs. Xue heard this, her face looked shocked and she looked at Wei Linfeng.

"Are you saying that my maids Zhiyan and Zhaoyan are lying?"

Wei Linfeng looked at Old Mrs.

"Master Wei, are you questioning the testimony of our Xue family?" Mrs. Xue frowned.

Wei Linfeng smiled and said: "Mrs. Xue, I didn't say that, but I think the reason is not simple."

When Mrs. Xue heard this, her brows furrowed and she fell into silence.

"Does Mr. Wei think someone deliberately framed Zhaoyan?" Mrs. Xue asked.

"Mrs. Xue's words are wrong. Ye Zhaoyan is the apple of Ye's family and your most precious granddaughter. Who can frame her?" Wei Linfeng said with a slight smile.

After hearing Wei Linfeng's words, Mrs. Xue's heart tightened. Although Wei Linfeng's words were said tactfully, they contained a threat.

She knew in her heart that she had indeed gone too far this time, and she had taken advantage of General Ye's absence to make his daughter and granddaughter suffer. If Wei Linfeng found out that they had wronged Ye and his daughter, they would definitely treat Xue

Home is unfavorable.

For so many years, the Xue family has been in a weak position, and its strength is slightly inferior to the second-class families in the capital.

In recent years, under her secret management, there has finally been some improvement. This is the critical moment to not fall short.

Mrs. Xue was silent for a while and said: "Zhiyan, tell me!"

Xue Zhiyan shrank and raised her eyes to look at Wei Linfeng. She knew that if she didn't say something today, Wei Linfeng would definitely not let her go.

She suppressed her panic, took a deep breath and said, "Yes, grandma. I did hear a woman crying in the house..."

Having said this, Xue Zhiyan paused, knelt down with a trembling body and said, "It's just that I don't know who the owner of the cry is. When I heard the cry outside the house, I just felt that the voice was very familiar.

But I didn’t go in and take a look…”

"You haven't gone in to take a look?" Mrs. Xue asked with a frown.

"Well," Xue Zhiyan nodded and said, "Because the sound in the house was too shrill and terrifying, I was afraid that it would attract other people, so I didn't dare to break in rashly."

After listening to Xue Zhiyan's words, Mrs. Xue's frown deepened.

Xue Zhiyan paused and continued, "I think that person is probably Sister Zhaoyan, because she once told me that she liked a man very much, but she just didn't know why she was taken away...

..”

When Mrs. Xue heard this, the look on her face became more solemn.

Xue Zhiyan's words surprised everyone present. Even the older monk next to Mrs. Xue couldn't help but open his eyes wide with a look of shock on his face.

possible?!

It was clear that the voice he had sworn to identify must be Ye Zhaoyan’s!

And she also revealed that Ye Zhaoyan likes a man?!

When Ye Fugui heard this, she couldn't help bursting into tears again. She had been worried for a long time and felt better now.

She had already prepared for the worst, but now she felt hope rising in her heart.

Mrs. Xue's eyes fell on Xue Zhiyan's face, and she looked at her carefully for a moment before asking: "Have you really never entered the house or seen that woman's appearance?"

Xue Zhiyan hurriedly shook her head and said: "No."

Mrs. Xue looked at Xue Zhiyan with complicated eyes. After a while, she slowly said, "Since you have never entered the room or seen the woman, how can you say that that person is Zhaoyan?".

After hearing Mrs. Xue's question, Xue Zhiyan clenched her fingers hanging on her sides into fists.

"Lianshuang saw it, and she told me it was sister Zhaoyan..."

For the current plan, we can only leave the matter to Lianshuang.

"Lianshuang, have you ever seen clearly that the woman is Zhaoyan?"

Mrs. Xue looked at Lianshuang, who had already knelt down in the corner, with a look of scrutiny in her eyes.

Lianshuang felt Mrs. Xue's gaze. She did not dare to look directly into Mrs. Xue's eyes and could only lower her head.

"Slave... I can see clearly that the woman's clothes are very similar to Miss Zhaoyan's clothes. However, I can only judge based on the clothes and her back. I don't know her specific appearance." Lianshuang hesitated for a moment.

said.

Although Lianshuang's voice was not loud, it was clearly heard in the ears of everyone present.

Mrs. Xue glanced at Lianshuang, then turned to look at Xue Zhiyan. Her face was full of disappointment, but her heart was getting more and more confused.

Wei Linfeng watched from the side, with a flash of ridicule in his eyes.

Seeing that no one finally spoke, Hui Chan stood up and said: "I did hear the shouts of the woman in the house, but I could see clearly from outside the courtyard at that time. Miss Zhaoyan was clearly still fighting with people in the courtyard.

There is absolutely no way the woman inside is her."

"That's right." Hui Shang nodded in agreement, "When I saw Miss Zhaoyan running away, her clothes seemed to have been torn and there were scars on her body, which should have been caused by the fight with the guard."

After hearing what the two eminent monks said, Mrs. Xue's expression became even more ugly.

Hui Shang added: "As for who the woman in the house is, we have to ask the man in the house."

"That's not necessary. I saw a maid heading towards the side room at that time. Xiang must know who that woman is." Hui Chan said.

Hearing these words, Xue Zhiyan's body stiffened suddenly, and her heart suddenly lifted.

Lianshuang hurriedly lowered her head, folded her hands on her legs tremblingly, and did not dare to say a word.

"What maid?"

Mrs. Xue looked at him questioningly.

Huichan paid no attention to her. He focused his gaze directly on Lianshuang and said lightly: "It is Miss Zhaoyan's personal maid, Lianshuang."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Xue's face became very gloomy, her eyes flashed with anger, and she shouted sternly: "Lianshuang!"

Lianshuang was so frightened by Mrs. Xue's voice that she trembled and quickly replied: "I'm here!"

"You said before that you saw the man in the house wearing Zhaoyan's clothes?" Mrs. Xue looked at Lianshuang and asked in a deep voice.

"Slave...Slave may be blinded," Lianshuang said.

"Fancy eyes?"

Mrs. Xue sneered and said, "Master Huichen said you know who that woman is?"

Xue Zhiyan felt flustered when she heard this. In addition to the panic, anger rose in her heart. She glared at Huichan and asked coldly: "Master didn't follow me in. How do you know if Lianshuang has seen that woman with his own eyes?"

Huichan glanced at Xue Zhiyan indifferently and said, "If you saw it with your own eyes, you'll know once you ask."

Xue Zhiyan's face suddenly turned pale.

When Lianshuang heard this, she broke into a cold sweat. Xue Zhiyan's angry question made her feel scared.
