Chapter 88: Locked in the Ancestral Hall

  The little gatekeeper found the fourth sister and Ah Ming in the carriage, he shouted all the way to inform his father, but what he shouted was that Miss Five had an accident. There are two suspicious points here...

  At that time, the sky was dark, and it's unlikely that the young man couldn't see clearly who it was, but he was so certain it was Fifth Sister. This suggests that someone may have already informed him beforehand, and before this, they had already known that something would happen to Fifth Sister.

  Secondly, he saw that kind of thing, which should have been kept secret and quietly informed his father. Instead, he shouted loudly, as if to let everyone in the mansion know, even I heard it in the secluded bamboo garden. This suggests that he may have received instructions from someone to make the person involved lose face and reputation. I suspect that he is targeting my fifth sister.

  As Yun Jing spoke with logical reasoning, both Yun Jinghua and Madame were pale-faced, sweating profusely...

  Bai Ruoxi's face was also deathly pale, and she was drenched in cold sweat, but there was a hint of anger in her eyes.

  What a vicious mind. To treat a girl like this.

  Father, I suggest calling that little servant who came to inform you loudly today and asking him a few questions. The mastermind behind the scenes will naturally become clear. Yun Jing spoke calmly and quietly.

  Someone come and bring Ah Wen here. Yun Shangren ordered in a low voice.

  The guard left, but soon returned with his head hung low and a heavy tone: "Master, Ah Wen is dead. She poisoned herself."

  It seems some people are getting nervous. Yu Dan looked at Yun Jinghua coldly and said.

  "What did you say, Fifth Aunt?" Yun Jinghua bellowed in anger.

  Shut up! The madam shouted angrily. Now the more you talk, the more mistakes you make, and the more suspicious people become. It's best to stay calm and not act rashly.

  Yun Shangren's face was gloomy and uncertain, the truth of the matter was now roughly clear in his mind. In this mansion, who was whose person, who had the ability to control others' lives and deaths, he was still roughly aware of it. He just didn't care about the affairs of the inner courtyard, not because he was blind or ignorant.

  But then, who secretly plotted against Ah Ming? Could it be...

  Yun Shangren slowly looked towards Yun Jingxi, Yun Jingxi's face was as usual, standing quietly in place, like a straight white poplar tree that had been standing there for many years.

  Yun Jingxi knew that as long as it was confirmed that everything was designed by Yun Jinghua, his father would soon suspect himself. Since things didn't develop according to Yun Jinghua's design, naturally someone must have ruined everything. Then, his father would naturally look for the person who ruined this plan and designed Yun Shuoyu.

  He is just fearless and has a clear conscience about everything he does. Moreover, if he were to be questioned, he also has a way to dispel suspicion.

  Yun Shangren was uncertain and dared not to confirm. All these years, he had seen the hidden endurance of Zhu's family. Including her eldest daughter's most glorious years, they silently endured any grievances. After Jingyan broke his leg, his eldest daughter had secretly found him and said that if there were any further actions from Madam's side, she would not show mercy.

  So, was all this arranged by her eldest daughter's hidden guards? It's very likely. This eldest daughter of hers is unfathomable, and the power in her hands is not clear to anyone, including the current emperor. It seems that he should find an opportunity to enter the palace and take a look at her eldest daughter. Perhaps, she hasn't gone mad...

  Yun Shangren's face sank, and he ordered, "Bring him in! This time, Second Young Master is hard to avoid suspicion. Lock him up in the back courtyard of the ancestral temple. He cannot come out until this matter is thoroughly investigated."

  Old Master...

  Father...

  Don't say anything more. Yun Shangren waved his hand and stood up, "Dan'er, help me back to the room to rest."

  Yes, sir. Yu Dan stood up with a smile and supported Yun Shangren as they left.

  Yun Long immediately took people to take Yun Jinghua away to the ancestral hall, Yun Jinghua's expression was chaotic, and she turned her head in a panic, asking for help from Madame: Mother, help me, don't let Father lock me up...

  The madam's face turned pale and she fainted away. Wang Mama and Zhao Mama hastily pushed her out...
