My mother is good at both medicine and poison, and she is reborn to kill people

Su Bingyan stared at the man in front of him, and did not deny what he said. He said bluntly: "You are just telling the truth, how can it be considered an offense."

The Jingzhao prefect was relieved to see that the Prime Minister was not angry about this. He raised his eyes slightly and took a secret glance, with some speculation in his mind.

It seems that most of the rumors from outside are true in this matter.

No, he had been guessing since he came to the Prime Minister's Mansion to deal with the matter at the request of the Prime Minister's wife in the morning.

No matter what, Su Huan is the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. The Prime Minister's wife is the mistress of the household and also Su Huan's stepmother. Why is she so impatient to characterize the incident that happened outside the capital?

The death of just a groom did not prove that Su Huan was in trouble. The Prime Minister's wife acted as if she knew the outcome in advance.

And yesterday at the birthday banquet for Princess Zhaohua, Su Huan's performance was stunning and famous in the capital, which completely overturned all the bad things that had happened to Su Huan in the past.

It is said that he has no talent, no looks, and no morals, but he is actually a person of extraordinary talent.

The carriage belonged to the Prime Minister's Mansion and was ridden by the Prime Minister's eldest daughter. Even if there was something wrong with the coachman, who would dare to do anything about it?

If the rumors outside are true, the disputes in the prime minister's mansion backyard are really interesting.

As for the children in the Yu mansion, his good reputation was actually only for his own children. He treated his wife and daughter like that, and the Prime Minister's wife, the second wife, had a good reputation outside for many years, but it turned out to be extremely false and inferior.

Of course, he couldn't say anything in front of the Prime Minister.

What's more, even if those matters belong to the inner house, the Prime Minister, as the real head of the Prime Minister's Mansion, how could he really not know the inside story.

All I can say is that the Prime Minister has always turned a blind eye.

Su Bingyan glanced at the person standing in front of him and said coldly: "You go down first. I think you have some sense and know what to say and what not to say in public."

The prefect of Jingzhao did not dare to say more, and bowed, "Yes, I understand, I will take my leave."

Su Bingyan waved his hands, and the prefect of Jingzhao retreated.

The prefect of Jingzhao walked out and saw a man coming towards him. He recognized him at a glance as someone from the palace.

Yes, there were many rumors in the capital, and it involved the prime minister of the current dynasty, so it was natural for the palace to know about it.

In the study room.

When Su Bingyan saw the person coming, he found out that he was a palace maid serving in the Emperor's Qinzheng Palace, and was a subordinate trained by Eunuch Xu.

The eunuch bowed respectfully towards Su Bingyan, "Your servant greets the Prime Minister."

Su Bingyan: "No need to be so polite, sir."

The eunuch stood up and, without hesitation, told the Prime Minister everything that Eunuch Xu had ordered him to convey.

Su Bingyan frowned slightly after hearing this. He said, "Thank you for your reply, Your Majesty. Please rest assured that I will take care of everything."

The eunuch said, "Prime Minister, the Emperor has one more thing to say."

Su Bingyan: "Just speak directly, sir."

The eunuch said seriously, "The emperor said that the prime minister is the head of all officials and the emperor's right-hand man. The prime minister's office must not be trapped by rumors. If the prime minister's wife is unusable, the prime minister should abandon her."

After hearing this, Su Bingyan understood the emperor's meaning very clearly. If the current matter could not be resolved smoothly, Zhu would become a discarded pawn, thrown out and the matter would be over.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I understand what you said."

The eunuch said, "Mr. Prime Minister, the rumors outside have been going on for only half a day, and they are already boiling over. If they continue to ferment, it will only be more difficult to end. Mr. Prime Minister must act quickly."

Su Bingyan: "You go ahead."

The eunuch didn't say much, just said: "Yes, I will take my leave."

Wait until the people in the palace leave.

Su Bingyan looked at the person beside him and asked, "Butler He, is the eldest lady in the mansion?"

Butler He said, "Prime Minister, the eldest lady had lunch with the three young masters of the Shen family, and after seeing the three cousins ​​off, she also left the house."

"The groom later replied that the young lady went to the Medicine King Pavilion and met His Royal Highness Prince Ning. His Royal Highness Prince Ning invited the young lady to visit the Prince Ning's Mansion and said that His Royal Highness Prince Ning would personally take the young lady back to the mansion later."

Su Bingyan frowned and closed his eyes. "Her marriage with Prince Jing was ruined, so she turned around and made an engagement with Prince Ning. Unexpectedly, she actually liked this engagement."

Steward He stood by and listened to the Prime Minister's words, but he didn't say anything else.

Su Bingyan: "Tell me, with all the things that happened today, have I been wrong all these years?"

Steward He: "The Prime Minister is in the court and is busy with government affairs. How can he have so much time to care about so many things? The Prime Minister is never wrong."

Su Bingyan: “Really?”

Butler He: "Yes."

Su Bingyan smiled coldly, "I am not wrong, then it can only be Zhu's fault."

Butler He fell silent for a moment.

Su Bingyan: "Go tell the guard at the door that if the young lady comes back, tell her to come directly to Qingsong Court to see me."

Butler He responded "yes" and then walked out of the study.

Su Bingyan let out a heavy sigh. He had previously asked Jingzhao Prefecture to use the incident of the groom to try to suppress the matter, but not only did it fail, but the backlash became even worse. This matter was destined to not be resolved hastily.

Outside, the sky was dark, with only a glimmer of light remaining in the sky and a glimmer of light.

Su Bingyan did not stay in the study for long. He got up and left the study. Without going to see his mother again, he went to his Qingsong Courtyard.

……

Fuxi Hall.

Nanny Xu walked in and said softly to the old lady, "Old lady, the Prime Minister has returned to Qingsong Courtyard. Just now, after the Jingzhao prefect left, someone from the palace came to see the Prime Minister. I heard from people outside that the Prime Minister ordered that the eldest lady go to Qingsong Courtyard to see the Prime Minister as soon as she returns to the palace."

Madam Su's face darkened, and she said in a serious tone, "I'm afraid this matter today won't end well."

Madam Xu: "Old Madam, are you saying that Madam's floor cannot be saved?"

Madam Su: "The palace has sent people here, which shows how serious the criticism outside is. The emperor will not allow his important officials to bear such criticism."

Nanny Xu: "So the person who came from the palace was sent by the Emperor to remind the Prime Minister. If the Prime Minister wants to distance himself from the matter now, he has to... Madam, doesn't that mean that Madam will become a discarded child? All the hard work that Madam has put into it over the years..."

Madam Su: "Now that things have come to this, there is nothing we can do."

Aunt Xu: "Old Madam, do you still want to protect Madam?"

"Whether I protect her or not, we've already lost this game. Su Huan tried to clear her name, but we made a mistake. People outside are talking about it. If we do something else, it will be too conspicuous." Madam Su sighed, "I really didn't expect that she could do this."
