Chapter 304: Outcome, Truth (1)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Yu Wan had never touched Su Mu, but Yu Wan had touched the Eldest Princess Consort. Su Mu probably did not know that the safety talisman she had painstakingly stolen from the Eldest Princess Consort was no longer the original one.

As for why Yu Wan had predicted that Su Mu would steal the Eldest Princess Consort’s Safety Talisman and prepared an identical one in advance, that was an unspeakable secret.

Su Mu had Su Mu’s ability, but Yu Wan also had Yu Wan’s trump card, right?

Yu Wan gently helped Su Mu up.

Su Mu’s nails buried under her wide sleeves dug into her palms.

Others could not sense the undercurrents between the two of them. They only thought that Su Mu was aggrieved, but Zi Su could vaguely feel that Su Mu was angered by Young Madam.

Yu Wan knew that she had suppressed Su Mu for so long. Once Su Mu seized the opportunity, she would counterattack.

Yu Wan “pulled” Su Mu’s wrist and the corners of her lips lifted indifferently. “Look carefully. This is how I frame you.”

Su Mu’s eyebrows twitched. Before she could react to the meaning behind Yu Wan’s words, Yu Wan retracted her hand in time. Almost at the same time, a gem the size of a pigeon egg fell out of Su Mu’s sleeve.

The red gem was as red as blood, reflecting a dazzling light on the floor.

The Empress frowned.

Emissary Cui recognized it. There was a golden Luan in the bedchamber where the Eldest Princess Consort was resting. This gem was the eyeball of the Luan. It fell out of Su Mu’s sleeve, and Emissary Cui did not have time to search this place.

Therefore, the Empress did not malign her. This girl was indeed dirty. However, she did not steal the Eldest Princess Consort’s safety talisman, but this expensive bead.

If the talisman was stolen, the Empress might suspect that Yu Wan was the one who ordered it, but this is a bead. Yan City was as rich as a country. Would the future Princess Consort Yan care about a bead? The purple gold hairpin on Yu Wan’s head was enough to buy more than ten such beads.

It seemed that this girl had ulterior motives!

Su Mu clenched her fists and glared fiercely at Yu Wan.

Yu Wan whispered into her ear, “Go on, say it. Say that I placed it on you. See if anyone believes you.”

Stealing from the palace was a serious crime to begin with, and slandering her master was even more of a crime. At that time, Yu Wan did not have to do anything and the Empress could deal with her using the palace rules.

“Your Majesty! Your Majesty! The safety talisman has been found!” A little eunuch ran in happily.

“Where did you find it?” asked the Empress.

The young eunuch said, “It’s on the Eldest Princess Consort! There’s a gap in her clothes. It fell into the gap!”

No wonder they couldn’t find it.

The Empress carefully looked at the Safety Talisman and confirmed that it was the one that the Eldest Prince had begged from Puji Temple. She finally heaved a long sigh of relief.

“What a false alarm,” Yu Wan said pleasantly.

The Empress felt guilty when she thought about how she had almost wronged Yu Wan just now. However, on second thought, if that girl had made things clear in time, why would she have suspected Yu Wan? When Emissary Cui found the Safety Talisman, shouldn’t she hurriedly said, “This isn’t the Eldest Prince Consort’s. It was given to me by Young Madam. If you don’t believe me, look.” How difficult were these words?

“When I saw her in the opera garden, I thought she was a smart person. At the critical moment, she couldn’t even speak clearly!” The Empress didn’t know about Yu Wan and Su Mu’s relationship, so it was naturally impossible for her to suspect Su Mu’s intentions, but she was extremely disappointed in Su Mu.

She looked at Yu Wan and said, “She’s your maid. Logically speaking, she should be handed over to you to deal with. However, she has already violated the palace rules by stealing from the palace…”

As the Empress spoke, she observed Yu Wan’s reaction. She should be punished for this matter, but if Yu Wan was unwilling, she could give her some face.

Yu Wan bowed and said, “It’s my fault for not controlling my subordinates well. I apologize to Your Majesty here.”

The Empress hurriedly said, “It’s not your fault. Quickly get up.”

Was she going to protect this girl? The Empress was disappointed. It was not a big deal, but between her and a maidservant who had stolen her things, she chose to protect the maidservant. This made the Empress feel that she had been left behind.

Fortunately, Yu Wan continued, “This girl doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth. She actually steals from the Empress’s palace. Your Majesty, please deal with her impartially.”

The Empress was very satisfied.

However, Su Mu almost died of anger. A thief crying thief actually had the cheek to say that she wanted to be fair? There was no one more shameless than this!

However, Su Mu could not refute for herself. The Empress might care about the Safety Talisman, but she would never care about a gem. So what if Yu Wan stole it? Would the Empress punish her for this? Moreover, the Empress would not believe it at all. Yan Jiuchao could buy as many such gems as Yu Wan wanted. There was really no need to steal them. It was impossible to say that she did it to frame Su Mu. Was a brat worth the Matriarch’s effort? She was not a sacrificial soldier or a spy!
