Chapter 171

Concubine Su!



Concubine Yuan let go of the lapels, immediately looking at Concubine Su with an incredulous expression .

Fang Jinxiu felt like there was thunder in her head; she couldn’t hear anything .

Old Lady Fang had stopped in front of them and then had singled out Concubine Su .

What did this mean?

Perhaps it was just lucky coincidence that it was Concubine Su . Or maybe Old Lady liked Concubine Su the best out of the three, so she spoke to her . Actually, maybe there was no other meaning .

Yes, it must be like this .

Concubine Yuan looked at Concubine Su instinctively .

Concubine Su finally lifted her head .

"I don’t really understand," she said woodenly .

It was over .

Concubine Yuan lowered her head and shut her eyes .

The room was deathly silent .

Lingzhi stopped sobbing . Her face was pale and she was both terrified and unfocused . She didn’t know what had just happened .

Lady Fang hurriedly stepped forward, raising her hand to slap her .

"I also don’t understand," she said viciously .

She used so much strength that a bright red handprint was left on Concubine Su’s face .

Concubine Su was still rigidly kneeling .

Lady Fang bent over and yanked on her lapels .

"I don’t understand . Why is it you, why? Concubine Su, tell me, why?" she hissed, her emotions in disorder . She slapped her again . "Why is it you? How have I mistreated you?"

Concubine let her slap her without moving, but she rocked on her knees .

Old Lady Fang grabed onto Lady Fang .

"Don’t be too hasty . Let her speak," she said .

Concubine Yuan hurried up to support Lady Fang .

Lady Fang threw her off and glared at Concubine Su .

"Say it . Why?" she demanded .

The hair around Concubine Su’s temples had fallen out . Her face was swelling . But she still was expressionless .

"Why?" Concubine Su looked only at Lady Fang . "Why did she miscarry right now?"

The medicine she ate would not immediately cause a miscarriage . Instead, it would slowly corrode the fetus in the womb . She would only miscarry three, four days later .

This way the poisoning would not have been uncovered . There was less risk .

For her to flare up right after she ate, it made her into the most obvious suspect .

Concubine Su looked at Lingzhi . Fear was written across her face .

"Could it be she didn’t miscarry?" Concubine Su asked .

Old lady Fang didn’t say anything . Lingzhi tried to defend herself, flustered .

"Yes, yes, I recall Concubine Su giving me some sweet soup; I drank Concubine Su’s sweet soup," she said .

But right now, no one was paying attention to her . Only Liu’er was angrily stamping her feet as she struggled in the guard’s grip .

Concubine Su did not look at Lingzhi .

"And why did you know it was me?" she asked Old lady Fang .

Asking why was an admission .



Concubine Su subconsciously looked at Fang Jinxiu .

She was woodenly stuck in place; she hadn’t moved or spoken the entire time .

Concubine Su had made thorough preparations so that today, Fang Jinxiu and Liu’er would appear with her .

The reason why Concubine Yuan had Concubine Su call for Fang Jinxiu was actually because Concubine Su had reminded her about Lady’s instruction .

So everything today had been within her expectations, whether it be immediate success or an unexpected occurrence .

She called Jinxiu, who had brought along Liu’er, to disrupt Lingzhi’s emotions .

Once she lost the child, she couldn’t lose her future too .

There could not be two tigers in one mountain . In order to secure herself within the Fang Family, she would need to eliminate Young Lady Fang .


As expected, Lingzhi had lived up to her expectations and pushed the crime onto Liu’er . She had even concealed the fact she had brought her sweet soup .

Lingzhi finally reacted . Unable to stand the ache, she sobbed as she crawled forward .

"It’s not so . I didn’t know; I didn’t conspire with Concubine Su . I didn’t purposefully frame Liu’er," she sobbed . "I was tricked by Concubine Su . "

Still, no one cared about her . Everyone was focused on Concubine Su .

"Why, in spite of everything, you were sure it was me?" Concubine Su was looking at Lady Fang . "I don’t understand . "

Old Lady Fang’s expression was complicated .

"Yes, your preparations were very thorough," she said . "But, she wasn’t pregnant . "

Not pregnant?

Everyone in the room was stunned again . Even the emotionless Concubine Su was shocked .

Lingzhi froze even more .

"But, but so many doctors…" Concubine Yuan couldn’t help but blurt out .



So many doctors had confirmed it; could it be they were just faking?

Concubine Su, of course, knew that those doctors were not faking . She suddenly realized .

"So it was like that," she said woodenly . "All this time it was a trap . Old Lady was just waiting for someone to jump in . My preparations were so thorough, yet I jumped right in . "

She had said it was strange before; so it was strange since that early on .

Concubine Su shut her eyes . Lady Fang grabbed her .

"Why would you do it? Was Chengyu your doing too?" she shouted .

Concubine Su opened her eyes . She had another epiphany .

"So you knew about Young Master’s poisoning," she said . She smiled bitterly . "That time, it was unavoidable . "

Young Master, poisoned?

Concubine Yuan was stunned once again .

So Young Lady was not just spitting out nonsense .

So they had been preparing since then?

Or was it since the day Miss Jun arrived?

Heaven .

Concubine Yuan clutched her lapels .

Enduring the fact that the victim was her son, every moment underneath the enemy's watch . How could she think she was smart when the one she needed to catch was never a step away?

After over ten years of waiting, she finally heard that, the confirmation of the enemy . Lady Fang almost went mad .

"Why? Why? Why did you attack us?" She pounced on Concubine Su and shook her violently while crying . "Was I so wrong to you? Or was it Nianjun? Why would you do this? And Nianjun? Did you kill him too?"

She was sobbing and shouting . She was tired, tired of it all; she didn't have the strength to hit Concubine Su again .

Concubine Yuan cried while holding onto her elbow .

"Elder Sister Su," she choked out, her expression twisted . "Were those ten years of affection all fake?"

Concubine Su still did not move or say anything . It was like her soul had left her body .

"Who was it?" Old lady Fang asked her . "Who told you? Were you under instructions the whole time you were in our household?"

Concubine Su sighed and lowered her gaze .

"Not good!" shouted Old Lady Fang as she pinched Concubine Su's face .

The guards went forward to support Concubine Su .

But they were one step too late . Concubine Su shut her eyes . Blood poured from her eyes, nose, and mouth .

Concubine Yuan shrieked once before covering her mouth .

One of the guards looked over the bleeding concubine, then turned and shook his head at Old Lady Fang .

"There was a poison capsule in her tooth . We're too late," he said .

Lady Fang pounced forward .

"She can't die; she hasn't given me an explanation yet . Why she attacked my Chengyu, she attacked us," she shrieked . She hit Concubine Su who was stiff and not breathing . "I don't understand . I don't understand . "

"Help Lady," Old Lady Fang ordered .

Concubine Yuan embraced Lady Fang, who was a deadweight . She felt her heart clenche and ache and she sobbed with Lady Fang .

There was crying and a general commotion, but Fang Jinxiu did not see or hear it . She only saw the guard let go of Concubine Su and how her body fell to the ground .

Since Old Lady Fang had stood in front of Concubine Su and asked that question, Concubine Su hadn't looked at her at all . Even at death, she was facing the ground, not able to spare her a glance .

Fang Jinxiu looked at Concubine Su on the ground .

"I don't understand," she muttered .
