"Fourth Master, slave, slave is wronged..."

"Is the nanny calling for injustice? Are she going to fool me like a three-year-old child?" As soon as Madam Song called out the word injustice, Qi You had already changed her face.

Madam Song looked up and saw Qi You's face, and immediately swallowed the words she wanted to tell. She naturally recognized what was on this list. She thought she had done everything in perfect condition and suddenly was revealed. She was a little surprised and made the stupidest reaction: deny and defend.

However, seeing Qi You's expression, she immediately understood how stupid it was to do so. She had been by Qi You for more than ten years, and finally understood Qi You's temper, and also saw the consequences of those who were clever and eloquent in front of Qi You.

Just now, Xun Qingran treated her and Princess Ning Xin as criminals in front of Qi You, and treated her like a prisoner. Not only did Qi You not stop her, but she also had no displeasure. What does this mean? It means that Qi You's heart and trust have all been transferred to Xun Qingran. Qi You now took out this list and interrogated her in this tone. Then Xun Qingran had discovered her hands and feet in bird's nest porridge.

When did Xun Qingran discover that? After all, she never had the chance to do such tricks when she arrived in Pingxi Town. Xun Qingran could only find out when she was in the capital, but she had never endured it, and she did not notice anything unusual. Madam Song was surprised, but now it was not the time to think about this. Qi You's current attitude completely believed Xun Qingran and determined the fact that she had given medicine.

If she argued and denied it, it would only make Qi You even more angry. However, after all, this matter has changed and the physical evidence has been destroyed long ago. She took the medicine by herself at that time, and she did not pass the second person, and there was no evidence in this person. Then, she still had a chance.

When Madam Song thought of this, she kowtowed a few times, and her forehead was bleeding. Then she said with tears: "The Fourth Master, I have served the Fourth Master for so many years, and I am loyal. If it weren't for this, how could the old lady, master, and wife in the mansion allow me to serve the Fourth Master for so long? Even the Fourth Master would not let me take care of the matter in Ningyuanju for these years. Since the Fourth Master, I have entered the mansion, I have never had a second thought."

Madam Song did not defend herself from drugging Xun Qingran's diet, but only confessed her loyalty to Qi You, hoping to impress Qi You.

"Prince Yonghe's princess once saved your daughter." Qi You said slowly, "You are grateful to her for this and cannot repay her. Even if she is dead, you are in my Qi family, but you still regard her as your master and your real master as your enemy. You want me to lose my son and grandson, right?" Qi You asked coldly, not confused by the methods of Madam Song.

"No, no." Madam Song was a little anxious, "Fourth Master, I am wronged. I am grateful to the princess for her grace, but I always remember that the fourth master made me master, and I have no intention of betraying my master. I have been working diligently over the years, and the fourth master has seen it. I said something proud, and I wish I could see the fourth master's family as soon as possible."

"So why do you put this medicine in grandma's bird's nest?" Qi You asked.

"This..." Madam Song rolled her eyes and couldn't think of how to answer for a moment.

"Madam Song, you are an old man in the mansion and have been decent for half your life," Qi You's words no longer had any anger, "You don't want to be able to save even the last bit of decency."

Madam Song shook and looked up at Qi You. She had been in the Qi Mansion for half her life, so how could she not understand what Qi You meant? The master of this mansion interrogated the servants and asked people to tell the truth. Qi You came to interrogate her in person, and let someone loosen her and did not torture her. This is the decentness she gave her. This child who served her since childhood seemed to be cold-hearted, but in fact she was gentle in her heart. It was just that gentleness and she refused to give it to others easily. She might be one of the people who got this kind of tenderness, but it was only until today.

Madam Song lay on the ground and started crying.

She remembered her daughter who had not been able to grow up. Yes, she had received the grace of Princess Yonghe. At that time, Qi You had been with a group of noble families. As a nurse, she followed Qi You to the prince's house many times. Princess Yonghe always came to her to talk to her, and she often received rewards and treated her very well. At that time, her daughter was sick and looked for medical treatment everywhere, but there was no result, so she had to wait for death. Princess Yonghe found out and sent someone to send secret medicine, which saved her daughter's life.

From then on, she was grateful to Princess Yonghe. She was not a confused person. She gradually realized that Princess Yonghe took a fancy to Qi You and wanted to marry Princess Ning Xin to Qi You. She naturally said all the good things about Qi You in front of Princess Yonghe.

She still remembers the appearance of Princess Yonghe. She is so graceful and noble, as if she is the fairy in the heaven. She has always believed that Princess Yonghe's way of dealing with people and pomp, can be considered true honorable. Princess Yonghe's only daughter, Princess Ning Xin, is not only beautiful, but she can make decisions against her servants at a young age, but she has an innate noble demeanor in her actions. She is a natural couple with Qi You.

If Princess Ning Xin successfully married Qi You without that incident, that would be called a match made by heaven. However, God did not satisfy people's wishes.

Madam Song woke up from her memories. The quibbling would not make any sense, so she admitted it. Taking everything on her is the last thing she did for the princess and Princess Ning Xin.

"Report to the Fourth Master, slave, slave confessed his guilt." Madam Song lowered her head, "The slave's lard was heartbroken, and it was the medicine for grandma's bird's nest."

"Why did you do this?"

"Sister, I am unwilling to accept the Fourth Master." Madam Song raised her head again, "The Xun family is at most a middle-class family. Grandma is just a concubine who is not favored by the Xun family. She has a wealth, background, talent, temperament, and dowry. How can she be worthy of the Fourth Master? With the Fourth Master's ability, she will be ranked third Master in the future. It is certain that she will not be worthy of the Fourth Master. The Fourth Master, and she can obviously marry a better one..."

"Stop." Qi You scolded, "Better, do you mean Ning Xin?"

Madam Song said yes in her heart, but naturally she didn't dare to say it.

"In the capital, there are some good ladies from home, for example..."

"Master, when is it your turn to point fingers? This is your loyalty, and you decide for your master what to do and what not to do. Who do you think you are?"

"It's a slave who is so confused." Madam Song leaned down on the ground and said.

"The turtle jelly you offered later did not want my grandmother to give birth?" Qi You asked again.

"It's okay to eat less turtle jelly. If grandma loves beauty too much and eats too much, it will be a hindrance to her offspring." Madam Song answered honestly this time.

"How much do you know and what did you do in it?"

"Slave, slave..." Madam Song stammered.

"Zhong Dayong did not escape and was captured alive." Qi You looked at Madam Song and said, "After he broke into the main yard, he was panicked when he saw Ning Xin being taken as a hostage."

Madam Song's hands were trembling, and she was hesitating. This matter was a bit beyond her expectations. At that time, Zhong Da used it to get her money, but said that she was just taking advantage of the earth's chaos and setting off a fire, causing an accident, which made Xun Qingran die without anyone noticing. When she saw that it was Zhong Dayong who took the lead in the mansion, she was also quite surprised.

"Your daughter died in the end, right?" Qi You asked suddenly.

"Yes, yes." Madam Song was a little strange, but she answered truthfully. Her daughter took Princess Yonghe's medicine and lived for more than a year, but then died. She died at night because the phlegm was choking in her throat and could not breathe. She only hated that she was not careful in taking care of herself, and she was still grateful to Princess Yonghe. If she hadn't had Princess' medicine, her daughter would have died long ago.

"Prince Yonghe once had two illegitimate sons. Shortly after he was born, he had symptoms of coughing and phlegm. In the end, he was also poor breathing and died at night. You don't know these." Qi You said lightly.

Madam Song opened her eyes wide and couldn't believe it.

"At that time, you were in grief, and the old lady gave you a break for a while. Of course, you wouldn't know what happened to the Yonghe Palace at that time."

Madam Song felt dizzy. Her daughter took Princess Yonghe's medicine. Although the original symptoms were cured, she had too many problems such as shortness of breath, coughing, phlegm, and being unable to breathe in the few days before her death. She didn't think much at the time, just thought that her daughter was weak and could be cured by taking good care of herself.

"How is this possible..." Madam Song murmured. But why is it impossible? Didn't she know what kind of person Princess Yonghe is? But she always thought that Princess Yonghe thought she was her own person, and those methods of noble ladies would not be used on her. Was she using her daughter to test medicine? She is from the Qi family. If something happened to her daughter, naturally no one would think of Princess Yonghe. Or if she had no daughter, she could serve her master more wholeheartedly? Princess Ning Xin? Yes, after that, she really had some empathy for Princess Ning Xin.

The noble princess is best at sending someone to the punishment stage, and can make that person feel grateful and regard her as the god. This was once the standard for noble ladies in her heart, but when she became a victim...

Madam Song hid on the ground and fainted from crying.

After a bowl of hot soup, Madam Song woke up.

"Fourth Master, I am willing to admit it. If I say a little more lies, I will let the thunder strike." Madam Song recovered and did not hide anything anymore. She admitted everything she did to Qi You.

"Slaves are fascinated by ghosts." Finally, Madam Song cried.

After hearing this, Qi You nodded to the Scutellaria Baicalensis who was serving beside him.

Scutellaria baicalensis pushed open the partition of the study room, revealing a compartment.

"What else do you have to say?" Qi You asked.
