After Transmigration, I Snag a Stunning Bigwig as My Husband-Chapter 894 - 889: Body Search

Su Jin’s attitude was nothing like being involved in the poisoning of Princess Nanzhang.

She was calm and composed as if she were an outsider, even more relaxed than the Imperial Physician who was invited.

However, her aloof attitude of watching from the sidelines was even more infuriating.

Xie Jinyu firmly claimed that the poison was Su Jin’s order through a maid.

Xie Jingchuan did not stop Xie Jinyu this time.

If he couldn’t obtain the antidote, his mother only had half an hour left to live, how could that be acceptable?

The antidote must be obtained!

Xie Jinyu’s words were sharp and aggressive.

Xingxing several times wanted to speak, but was stopped by Su Jin’s gaze.

Su Jin said, "This maid claims I instructed her, and the First Young Lady believes without doubt?" 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"Why shouldn’t I believe her?" Xie Jinyu replied angrily.

"..."

This rhetorical question stunned Su Jin.

Indeed.

Why shouldn’t she believe this maid?

After all, this maid just poisoned her mother, a good person.

It seems earning the trust of their mother and daughter is easy, just poison them a few more times.

Thinking of this, Su Jin suddenly felt she had taken many wrong turns.

When it comes to poisoning, she has hundreds of ways in a minute without repeating.

No need to say more when conversations don’t match, Su Jin was too lazy to talk to Xie Jinyu further, lest her intelligence would be dragged down if she stayed longer.

But although Su Jin did not want to get involved, Xie Jinyu would not let her off, saying, "I want to search Agarwood Pavilion!"

Su Jin looked at Xie Jinyu.

Chief Steward Li hurriedly said, "It’s not permissible."

Not only is Su Jin the Princess Consort Zhenbei, she is also a Daqi Princess, a treasured gem of the Emperor.

The fact that Prince Zhenbei Mansion suspects the Princess Consort of poisoning and brings people to search, if this is heard by the Emperor, surely there will be royal wrath.

Chief Steward Li tried to persuade Xie Jinyu, but Xie Jinyu glared at him and said, "She may hold a noble princess identity, but does that mean my mother’s status is not noble?!"

"Afraid of me bringing people to search, aren’t you feeling guilty like a thief?" Xie Jinyu provoked.

Su Jin curled her lips into a shallow smile that reached her eyes, "Since the First Young Lady says so, if I don’t let you search, would that mean I’m guilty?"

Seeing Su Jin walked into the trap, Xie Jinyu’s expression improved slightly.

Su Jin said, "If you want to bring people to search, then go ahead."

"However, my Agarwood Pavilion has many things, not lacking in valuables; anyone who breaks anything, I will hold you accountable."

Xie Jinyu angrily replied, "I’m only here to search, who said anything about tipping over your things?!"

Xie Jinyu was about to go search, with Mrs. Zhao accompanying her.

Su Jin instructed Xingxing to keep an eye on them.

Before leaving, Su Jin motioned for Xingxing to come to her side, whispering a few words.

Xingxing happily chased after Xie Jinyu and Mrs. Zhao, eventually blocking them outside Agarwood Pavilion.

Xie Jinyu, furious, clenched her fists, "What do you mean by this?!"

"Your master allowed us to search, yet you dare to block us?!"

Xingxing spread her arms and said, "My lady said, you may search Agarwood Pavilion, but before searching, I need to search you first."

"In case you bring something you shouldn’t into our Agarwood Pavilion."

Mrs. Zhao’s face changed, "Are you suspecting us of framing the Princess Consort?"

Xingxing raised her chin and replied, "You suspect my lady, why can’t my lady suspect you?"

"Not letting me search means you’re guilty like a thief."

Just moments ago, Xie Jinyu had used these very words, and now Xingxing returned them swiftly.

Racing to deliver them, she ran all the way, nearly out of breath.

To show her sincere attitude towards supporting the search, Xingxing stood there saying, "I let you search me first."

Xingxing’s attitude was commendable, all the maids and old servants in Agarwood Pavilion were watching.

As were the people sent by Chief Steward Li.

Su Jin had them search Agarwood Pavilion because she was not feeling guilty.

Now, since Xie Jinyu wouldn’t let Xingxing search, she was the one feeling guilty.

Can she not let them search?

She must let them search.

Xie Jinyu gritted her teeth and had the maid step forward to search Xingxing.

With a public search, even Xingxing’s satchel was tipped out, revealing its contents.

Xingxing repacked her satchel and then stood at the door checking each person.

Checked one, let one in.

Mrs. Zhao turned to leave, but Xingxing stopped her, "Don’t go!"

Xingxing ran up to Mrs. Zhao, blocking her path.

Mrs. Zhao angrily replied, "I need to tend to the Commandery Princess."

"You’ll go after the search," Xingxing said.

Mrs. Zhao was determined to leave, and Xingxing said, "Mrs. Zhao won’t let me search her, must be because she’s carrying something she’s afraid I’ll find?"

Mrs. Zhao could feel her palms sweating coldly.

Xingxing reached out to search.

Mrs. Zhao wanted to resist, but her feet felt nailed to the ground, unable to move.

Xingxing searched all over but found nothing.

Mrs. Zhao was somewhat stunned but breathed a sigh of relief.

Mrs. Zhao did not argue with Xingxing and took steps to leave.

Xingxing turned to search the others.

Walking a bit further, Mrs. Zhao touched her waist.

Mrs. Zhao, "...!!"

Where’s the antidote?!

Where did the antidote go?!

Mrs. Zhao couldn’t care less if there were people around; she quickly checked her bosom but sadly couldn’t find the antidote.

Mrs. Zhao wasn’t foolish; she knew how the antidote disappeared.

It must have been taken by that maid Xingxing during the search opportunity.

In puzzlement, why did it disappear instead of revealing her, why steal the antidote?

Coming to one possible thought, Mrs. Zhao’s face turned pale —

The Princess Consort wanted to take the opportunity to claim Princess Nanzhang’s life!

This speculation made Mrs. Zhao’s body tremble; she hurriedly returned to the Buddhist Hall.

Only Princess Nanzhang remained unconscious, and Mrs. Zhao couldn’t wake her, so she could only tell Xie Jingchuan.

Xie Jingchuan had guessed the circumstances but never imagined that Su Jin and her maid wouldn’t follow their plan, counteracting them instead.

Although they poisoned, they had the antidote and could guarantee safety.

Now, with the commotion, the antidote was in their hands!

"Second Young Master, we must retrieve the antidote quickly," Mrs. Zhao trembled as she spoke.

Xie Jingchuan’s veins pulsed on his forehead.

He turned to leave, but Su Jin stopped him, saying, "I don’t have a big Agarwood Pavilion; wouldn’t the First Young Lady and Second Young Master searching be too much, leaving Princess Nanzhang unconscious on the bed, isn’t this improper?"

Su Jin’s words were filled with charm.

Xie Jingchuan nearly ground his silver teeth to dust.

From the look on his face, Su Jin knew Xingxing had succeeded.

She trusted that maid to do the job.

No matter how the search was handled, it couldn’t be ruined.

Su Jin would not let Xie Jingchuan leave, so Xie Jingchuan couldn’t leave.

But not long after, Xingxing returned.

Seeing Xingxing entering, Xie Jingchuan’s cold eyes nearly glared her to death.

Xingxing’s eyes smiled in crescent shapes.

Su Jin looked at her and asked, "Why did you come back?"

"Is the search complete?"

"Not yet," Xingxing shook her head.

"Those people were clumsily handling my lady’s things, and fearing I wouldn’t resist the urge to hit them, I came back first."
