Su Han knew that Su Yingxue had always been uncompromising and had a vengeful personality, so she quickly stepped forward to persuade her, “Yingxue, Ninth Prince, and grandpa are handling this matter. Mom and I have already investigated the people in the mansion, and we’ve caught the rumor-monger. You don’t need to worry about this. The Scarlet Flame King is still recuperating in the mansion, so you should focus on caring for the patients and studying medicine.”
Su Han was afraid that Su Yingxue would rush into Changxin Marquis’s Manor and do something to Su Xinlan.
If that happened, both of their reputations would suffer, and it would only fuel the gossip outside.
Su Yingxue’s long eyelashes drooped. “Sister has already caught the spy in the residence. Take me to see him.”
“This… Why don’t we leave this matter to Han’er?” Qin Wan was still concerned. After all, Chu Yihan had instructed that Su Yingxue shouldn’t suffer any grievances before marriage.
Even if Su Yingxue wasn’t a bride waiting to be married, Qin Wan was still worried that Su Yingxue’s actions might provoke Ninth Prince’s wrath.
Su Han gave Qin Wan a reassuring look and bowed slightly. “Mother, let me and Yingxue handle this matter.”
“Alright then.” Qin Wan agreed reluctantly.
She didn’t dare to make decisions for Su Yingxue, but with Su Han’s presence, Su Yingxue respected her as a sister and usually listened to her, so Qin Wan felt relieved to let them handle it.
Su Han took Su Yingxue to the woodshed and explained that the servant boy inside was the son of the aunt in charge of the inner courtyard. He had caused trouble in the mansion because of his gambling habit, which was funded by Su Xinlan.
Su Yingxue listened silently along the way.
If she said anything, Su Han would be able to guess what she was thinking.
But since she remained silent and only responded with grunts during their conversation, Su Han started to worry.
The door of the woodshed creaked open, and the man tied up inside started yelling.
Zhilan went over and scolded him, “Shut up and answer Miss’s questions. Don’t talk if she doesn’t ask. Got it?”
Zhilan’s imposing manner frightened the tall, thin man, who obediently shrank back.
Su Yingxue walked up to him, her eyebrows raised slightly. “Did Su Xinlan give you money to cause trouble in the manor?”
“Yes, yes, yes!” the man nodded vigorously.
He was just greedy for money.
Although his parents had decent salaries, it wasn’t enough for his gambling habit. So when Su Xinlan offered him money, he readily accepted.
“How much did Su Xinlan give you?” When Su Yingxue asked, the man immediately fell silent and curled up in the corner.
Zhilan produced a paper bag and displayed its contents to Su Yingxue. “Miss, here’s what we found on him: a gold ingot, a pearl hairpin, and some loose silver. Since he visited the gambling den yesterday, this loose silver likely represents his losses, which should amount to two gold ingots.”
Su Yingxue glanced at the silver in Zhilan’s hand and nodded. “Very well. Once this matter is settled, give him two more gold ingots.” Zhilan was puzzled. Wiry was Su Yingxue giving him more money?
Su Yingxue looked down at the man with a sharp glint in her eyes. “Follow me to Changxin Marquis’s Manor and confess everything Su Xinlan asked you to do. If you cooperate, I’ll give you two more gold ingots. If you refuse… I’ll use this money to buy your freedom and then beat you to death.”
