”Yes.”
”Recently, because of the matter with the Zuo family, the crown prince and General's Mansion have clashed. Su Li, grandmother wants to ask you for a favor …”
”Grandmother wants me to forgive Zuo Shaoyuan for framing me?” Su Li asked, his eyes turning red. Without waiting for the Old Madam to reply, he immediately scolded, ”Grandmother had just said that I am the same as Second Sister and Third Sister, but in the blink of an eye, you want me to forgive someone who tried to harm me for the sake of General's Mansion. If that isn't the difference, what is?”
”Sigh.” ”The old mistress of the Zuo family is an old friend of mine. She came to ask for me personally, and I only let her say what she wanted. No matter what you want, the Zuo family will give it to me, that's why I asked you for it.”
”No matter who it is, I will never agree to this. Zuo Shaoyuan framed me and wanted me to die.
”Grandmother knows that as long as you are careful, you don't want to suffer any grievances. This is indeed the fault of the Zuo family, you can't be blamed.”
”As long as Grandmother doesn't blame me.” Su Li rubbed his eyes playfully. Seeing the old lady like this, she should not know about Yefeng's situation, ”Grandmother …”
”Hmm?” Seeing Su Li stuttering, the old lady's face turned serious, ”With Grandmother here, you can say whatever you want to.”
”Grandmother, please seek justice for me.”
Su Li was about to kneel down, but the old lady reached out to support him, ”Everything is fine, what kind of grievance is this now?”
Su Li told her what happened outside the palace about Yefeng, ”Grandmother, that person was simply spouting nonsense. I don't know him at all, and the jade in his hand was something I lost in the mansion …”
The old mistress' eyes darkened immediately.
Other than Su Qianyue and her mother, who else could do such a stupid thing?
It was just that they were fine. Why would they do such a thing?
”If that person comes out and dares to mess around, this matter will definitely stir up a storm, but I still have a case to investigate. Grandmother, please go back and ask who exactly is forcing me into such a desperate situation, or else, when I settle this matter, don't blame me for not thinking about family love.”
The old lady's face changed, she knew how ruthless Su Li was!
She was trying everything she could to rope him in. This was also a type of precaution.
”Alright, Grandmother will be more careful when she goes back.” The old mistress stood up, no longer in the mood to stay. ”Rest assured. If someone is really making this up, the truth will come out.”
”I'll send Grandmother off.”
Su Li sent the old lady out of the Fifth Prince's Mansion, looked at the carriage as it gradually moved further and further away, and coldly lifted half his lips, then turned and walked back.
In the carriage.
Ma mama whispered, ”What Fourth Miss said just now …”
”The Shangguan Family has been in charge for so many years, but they are losing their style.” The old lady slapped on the armrest, her eyes did not carry even the slightest of warmth, ”Su Li wants to marry into the Fifth Prince's Mansion and make a big deal out of it, but she wants to block it, a short-sighted person …”
”I'm afraid that the First Madam is worried that the Third Miss won't be able to do much in the Crown Prince's Palace, and will be suppressed by the Fourth Miss.”
The old mistress scoffed.
”Do you really think that this was Shangguan Yao's idea?”
Ma mama widened her eyes in shock. ”This …”
”Shangguan Yao has always only done things that cannot be revealed to others. She would never be able to find someone to get to know Su Li.”
”The madame's meaning is, second lady …”
