My husband faked his death so I could remarry, but I got involved with my crazy brother and can'

"My lord, she can frame me so easily? I was summoned back in the middle of the night, and this is how you treat me?"

These words carried a strong sense of displeasure.

"Yes, since that little girl said it was Madam's doing, let's go to the Arrest Division together. Fortunately, the most cruel punishments in Beiming are all there, so if an ordinary person wants to lie and frame someone, they will have nowhere to hide."

"But having endured all thirty-two forms of torture in the Enforcement Division, I'm afraid it will be difficult to emerge alive..."

Upon hearing this, the maid who had been falsely accusing Su Yingxue trembled like a leaf.

Seeing that Aunt Feng's face was unpleasant, what else did Marquis Shunyang not understand?

It turned out that she had set a trap to frame him.

If it weren't for Xie Huaiyun, I'm afraid I would have really misunderstood my biological daughter.

Marquis Shunyang's face instantly darkened: "Speak! What exactly happened?!"

The maidservant hurriedly cried out, "Young Master, spare me! It wasn't that I wanted to implicate the Madam, it was Aunt Feng who found me and made me give false testimony, that's why... I really didn't mean it..."

Upon hearing this, Consort Feng hurriedly knelt down, "My lord, I was just confused for a moment, please forgive me this time..."

Disappointment flashed across the Marquis of Shunyang's face: "Little Feng, what are you doing making such a fuss?! What am I supposed to do now?!"

"Aunt Feng's technique is so skillful, it doesn't seem like this is her first time, does it?" Xie Huaiyun said seemingly casually.

Unexpectedly, Xie Huaiyun said such things at this point, and Aunt Feng's face turned deathly pale.

Su Yingxue chimed in, "Yes, over the years, I've been framed by Aunt Feng quite a few times. To be honest, with Aunt Feng as a scourge, it's really not easy for me to have survived until now."

Upon hearing this, Marquis Shunyang seemed to be deep in thought.

The scenes from before flashed through my mind. Could it really have been Aunt Feng's doing?

How many times has Aunt Feng done this?

Could it be that he really misunderstood Su Yingxue?

"My lord, I didn't!"

Consort Feng protested, "I only resorted to this tactic because I saw that Zhirou was not favored in the Duke's mansion. I beg Your Highness to have pity on my beloved daughter!"

"Are you out of your mind!" Marquis Shunyang exclaimed in anguish, "She has no ability to win the prince's heart, so why are you pulling all these stunts?"

What a foolish woman.

Does she think that by using some tricks, the prince will favor Su Zhirou?

Now, seeing the young master's attitude, he not only showed no pity for Su Zhirou, but instead looked indignant.

It seems like they're holding a grudge?

Marquis Shunyang had a hunch that his second daughter would never have the chance to be favored again.

Thinking of this, Marquis Shunyang's face instantly darkened: "Alright, Concubine Feng is morally corrupt and framed the eldest young lady. She shall be fined three months' salary and confined to her quarters to reflect on her mistakes. Without my order, she is not to come out."

He then cautiously looked at Xie Huaiyun and asked, "Is the young master satisfied with this arrangement?"

"Tch~"

Su Yingxue rolled her eyes at him: "Who cares about these things? Give me the divorce papers!"

It doesn't matter what kind of punishment there is, the key is the divorce agreement.

Her mother has suffered here for so many years, surely she'll finally see the light at the end of the tunnel?

If she has to be called back by this cheap father every time, what good days will she have in the future?

Marquis Shunyang was unaware that he was being thoroughly disliked.

Seeing that the matter was over, Madam Qian shook her head at Su Yingxue.

Su Yingxue was furious: "Mother, haven't you learned your lesson yet? Were you just lying to me before?"

Thinking that her earnest advice had been completely ignored, Su Yingxue was furious.

Whether or not they divorce ultimately depends on Mrs. Qian's approval.

Madam Qian gently shook her head: "Daughter, you shouldn't concern yourself with this matter."

Upon hearing this, the Marquis of Shunyang's eyes lit up.

He knew that Qian was deeply in love with him and would never be willing to divorce him.

Marquis Shunyang said earnestly, "Child, your mother and I have been married for many years, and disagreements are inevitable. I was wrong before, and I will not make things difficult for your mother again. Please forgive your father this once, okay?"

These words were full of flattery. Su Yingxue hesitated for a moment, seeing that Madam Qian really did not want to lose the divorce.

With someone so obsessed with love around, she probably won't listen to anything she says.

That's it.

She can do whatever she wants.

After leaving the Marquis's residence and getting into the carriage, Su Yingxue remained sullen.

Although she had taught Aunt Feng a lesson today, she hadn't achieved her goal of completely severing ties with the Marquis's mansion, and she was still extremely upset.

The atmosphere inside the carriage was quiet.

The man spoke up: "It's normal for your mother to have her own ideas."

"In this world, if a woman gets a divorce, it not only affects herself, but also her children."

"Perhaps she was afraid that it would implicate you, making you not the legitimate daughter of the Marquis's family, and causing you to lose that noble status."

Xie Huaiyun tried to comfort her, but Su Yingxue blurted out, "Who cares about this title? I can still live a wonderful life without it!"

"Of course I know you are capable, but in the end, your mother cares about you, and she will always have more to think about."

"While a forced divorce could be arranged today, such a divorce is ultimately untenable."

Xie Huaiyun pointed out the key point.

"Perhaps your mother has other ideas, who knows?"

He glanced at Qian Shi just now, clearly indicating that he had a plan in mind.

Unlike any of our previous meetings, she has shed her weakness and become calm and reserved.

His entire demeanor and spirit changed.

"What could a mother possibly be thinking? She's just reluctant to part with that scumbag father!"

Su Yingxue was fuming and felt annoyed.

His gaze suddenly fell on Xie Huaiyun, who was standing to the side: "Hey, haven't you been very busy these past few days? How come you have time to come see me?"

If Xie Huaiyun hadn't come, I'm afraid Marquis Shunyang wouldn't have been able to deal with Consort Feng so swiftly.

After all, given the Marquis of Shunyang's long-standing reputation, it's simply impossible for him to do that.

After all, in the eyes of the Marquis of Shunyang, everyone in the manor knew that he doted on Consort Feng.

But Xie Huaiyun is different.

Xie Huaiyun was a favorite of the emperor, so if someone were to file a complaint against him, he would be in serious trouble.

Xie Huaiyun coughed lightly, knowing that she had been ill for some time, but had not dared to go see her.

Thinking about what I had explained to Prince Rui last time, I was afraid of implicating her, but I really missed her.

He originally intended to simply offer his support and leave gracefully, but after actually seeing her, he couldn't bear to part with her.

"I was indeed quite busy before, but I'm not busy today. I heard that something happened at the Marquis's residence, so I came to take a look."

Su Yingxue nodded gently upon hearing this: "Thank you, Xie Huaiyun."

"Without you, this matter would probably not have been resolved so easily."

Su Yingxue smiled and looked at the man in front of her.

Xie Huaiyun's expression changed slightly as he looked at the petite woman in front of him, coughed lightly, and remained silent.

Outside the carriage.

The two girls exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with dissatisfaction towards Xie Huaiyun.

"What on earth is the son-in-law up to? Wasn't he all aloof before? Why is he suddenly all over me again?"
