Chapter 146 Someone Died Suddenly

"Po Wang, if I remember correctly, you should be an old lady around the Second Madam! The Second Madam has treated you well over the years! Are you worthy of the Second Madam's kindness to you by wrongly accusing her like this?" Liu Yu walked over, glanced at Po Wang who had a firm attitude, and then looked at Chang who was still in a daze, his eyes were indescribably complicated.

Wang Po pretended not to hear Liu Yu's words. She lowered her head and did not dare to look at Chang's eyes. "Aunt Liu, you don't have to trick me. It's because the Second Madam is so good to me that I should tell her. I can't let the Second Madam make the same mistake again."

"Wang Xianglian."

Without waiting for Liu Yu to speak, Chang stepped forward, grabbed Wang Po's collar, pulled her up, stared into her eyes, and asked word by word: "Is this what you want to repay me?"

"Second Madam, I am sorry for you," faced with Chang's questioning, Wang Po turned her head away, her face full of apology, but she had no intention of giving in.

Chang simply couldn't believe it. These were her dowry maids. She trusted them the most in the Chen Mansion. She would never forget about them when she got any good things. But this bitch still betrayed her.

She pushed Wang Po away with one palm, raised her hand and slapped Wang Po on the face twice. She was almost on the verge of losing control and asked heartbreakingly:

"Tell me clearly, were those bitches in the yard instructing you to frame me?"

The Second Lady has a bad temper. If someone sets a trap for her, it would be very easy for her to fall into it.

However! Although Liu Yu did not sympathize, he had to say that this second wife was quite pitiful.

Liu Yu withdrew his gaze and came to Wu's side.

"Madam, there's no point in continuing to argue like this. The Third Master and Princess Xinyi are still waiting for our news."

This matter concerns the Second Madam, and it is not easy for her to handle it. She can only give Wu a reminder or two.

Wu nodded and asked Liu Yu: "What do you think?"

"I think this matter should have nothing to do with the Second Madam." Liu Yu answered truthfully what he was thinking.

Her answer once again made Wu look at her with a higher regard. Wu knew that the Second Madam had caused trouble for Liu Yu and embarrassed her in front of the servants last night.

Afterwards, the rumor spread that the mushroom soup made by Liu Yu was poisonous. Not to mention the second wife, that concubine had caused trouble for Liu Yu many times, but the second wife had never said a fair word for her, and her attitude towards Liu Yu was even more difficult to evaluate.

Adding all these things together, if other people had this great opportunity and did not take advantage of it to step on Chang's family, they would have been considered to have very high moral character, let alone those who took the initiative to speak to Chang's family.

Wu nodded and said half-jokingly, "I remember that your second sister-in-law didn't get along with you! She repeatedly made things difficult for you, and you didn't want to see her get punished."

This made Liu Yu laugh: "How could I not want to? I would be happy if she got divorced because of this."

Hearing her answer, Mrs. Wu also laughed. If Liu Yu said he didn't want to, she would think that this kind of person is not worth making friends with because he is too scheming.

These true words made Mrs. Wu feel that Liu Yu was really a person of true character, just as her mother said.

Wu's eyes turned to Wang Pozi: "What do you think of Wang Pozi?"

"We need to investigate thoroughly and, if necessary, use appropriate punishment." There is no need to sympathize with servants who betray their masters.

Liu Yu's idea coincided with Wu's. She immediately ordered the servant to pull Chang away from beating Wang Po: "Wang Po, I don't want to embarrass you either. Don't tell me that it was my second brother's wife who ordered you to do it. I have seen many such childish tricks and slanders. Tell me honestly, who ordered you to do this? Tell me, I can promise to let you go."

"You can't let her go." Before Mrs. Wang could answer, Chang shouted first, staring at Mrs. Wang with eyes full of hatred. If the servants hadn't stopped her, she would have rushed over long ago.

Mrs. Wang knew that under such circumstances, she could not go back, so she could only go down this path to the end.

"It was the Second Madam who ordered this old servant to do this. First Madam, please investigate."

Wu didn't want to waste any more time, so she waved her hand. Her personal nanny immediately took the servant and took the person to the kitchen yard. She ordered on the spot that Wang Po be beaten with twenty boards.

"Madam, this old servant is telling the truth! It was really the Second Madam who ordered it."

The sound of boards hitting skin and flesh being torn apart could be heard in the kitchen, which made people tremble with fear. They swore in their hearts that no matter what happened in the future, they would never betray the Chen family easily. It was too scary. After twenty strokes of the board, people would probably have to lie in bed for ten days or half a month.

After a cup of tea, the twenty strokes of the board were completed, but she didn't say anything except the first sentence.

This surprised Liu Yu. He didn't expect that Mrs. Wang was such a tough guy.

Liu Yu had no idea. Just last night, after she sent the news to Jiang Xueqing, she received the poison not long after that. Then she received the news that her son had been kidnapped. When she went to find Jiang Xueqing again,

Jiang Xueqing told her that she had to wait until the matter was done before releasing the person.

Looking at Wang Po's bloody back, Liu Yu thought about it and decided to find Mr. Chen Sanye again.

Mr. Chen Sanye often tries prisoners in the Dali Temple. When it comes to getting information from people, he is the one to rely on.

When Liu Yu left Xianghe Courtyard and arrived at Chenxi Courtyard, where distinguished guests were accommodated, Princess Xinyi had just woken up and was clamoring for an explanation from the Chen Mansion.

She then learned that the news about Xiangheyuan had been passed to Princess Xinyi by someone unknown, and Princess Xinyi demanded that Chang be dealt with immediately.

The old lady inside was comforting him.

At this time, Mr. Chen San just came out of the side room, saw Liu Yu coming, and hurried over to greet him.

Hearing the restless noises coming out of the room, Liu Yu knew that the matter was urgent, so he simply told Master Chen San about the situation in the kitchen.

Mr. Chen San found the maid at the door, went in to inform the old lady, and then went to the kitchen with Liu Yu.

Just as I reached the kitchen door, I heard a little maid screaming:

"Madam, it's bad. Old Lady Wang is dead."

When she left Xiangheyuan just now, Mrs. Wang was still shouting loudly and wildly. How come she died less than an incense stick of time after she left?

Could it be that the eldest lady tortured him again?

Liu Yu followed behind Master Chen San and quickly strode into the Xianghe Courtyard. At this time, Mrs. Wang was being carried from the rest pavilion to the ground in the courtyard. She was lifeless and her face was blue-gray.

Seeing this, Mr. Chen San looked at Mrs. Wang lying on the ground, then walked towards the corpse.

Before leaving, he did not forget to remind Liu Yu not to go in.

In her previous life, Liu Yu had crawled out from a pile of dead bodies. She had seen even more tragic deaths than this. Wang Po's body was intact, so she was not scared at all.

She didn't listen to Mr. Chen San and followed him over.
