After Transmigration, I Snag a Stunning Bigwig as My Husband-Chapter 895 - 890: False Accusation

It’s the same old saying, Agarwood Pavilion is just that small, and the search is quick.

After waiting for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Xie Jinyu returned.

Found nothing, filled with anger.

Without finding the antidote, it’s impossible to prove Su Jin’s innocence. In Xie Jinyu’s eyes, it was Su Jin who hid the antidote.

"The bamboo house in Agarwood Pavilion’s backyard is empty. You must have hidden the antidote!" Xie Jinyu blurted out.

Su Jin was drinking tea at the moment, she casually glanced at Xie Jinyu, "The medicines in the bamboo house at the back of Agarwood Pavilion were taken by my husband to the border."

"He only departed today. If you want to send someone to chase, you can catch up quickly."

With that said, Su Jin put down the teacup and stood up.

Previously, she didn’t let Xie Jingchuan leave, and now he wouldn’t let Su Jin leave either.

He took the opportunity to whisper to Xie Jinyu, "Is it appropriate to search elder sister-in-law’s person?"

Xie Jinyu was a bit stunned.

Su Jin chuckled inwardly.

In her eyes, the image of them, the mother and son trio, was the same, did they need costumes?

However, searching her was false, using it as an excuse to search Xingxing again was true.

Xingxing’s satchel was filled with many things, it would be a hassle to check, and Xingxing was really unwilling.

But whether she was willing or not, it couldn’t be helped, they wanted to search her.

However, Xingxing’s heartfelt unwillingness gave Xie Jingchuan an illusion that the medicine was hidden on Xingxing, and finding it in public would be more convincing than searching Agarwood Pavilion.

Unfortunately—

There was nothing he wanted in Xingxing’s satchel.

Su Jin stood there and said, "Is the search complete?"

Xie Jinyu clenched her fists tightly, her eyes almost murderous.

"Xingxing, let’s go."

Su Jin stepped away.

Xingxing, while walking, was stuffing a whip into her satchel.

The Imperial Physician stood there, a bit at a loss.

He had already said that he couldn’t cure Princess Nanzhang’s poison, could he leave first?

The Imperial Physician planned to quietly leave.

But just after taking two steps, the unconscious Princess Nanzhang reacted.

She suddenly coughed awake, spat a mouthful of blood onto the floor.

The blood was blackened, clearly poisoned with a deadly toxin.

Su Jin had said that without the antidote, Princess Nanzhang had only half an hour to live.

Initially, Xie Jingchuan and Xie Jinyu didn’t believe it, but now they couldn’t afford not to.

The previous search had already wasted quite some time, they couldn’t delay any longer.

In the garden, Su Jin was enjoying the flowers.

Now it was already late autumn, and leaves were everywhere.

The maids had just swept the fallen leaves, but soon they covered the ground again, while quite a few flowers bloomed in the garden, it’s still less compared to the peak summer.

Yet these flowers beautifully adorned the garden, and especially when in a good mood, the mixed fragrance was refreshing.

Su Jin didn’t return directly to Agarwood Pavilion, she strolled around the garden.

After all, walking around expends energy, staying here to wait for the fish to take the bait was enough.

After waiting for half the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, a maid came by to invite Su Jin back to the Buddhist Hall.

Xingxing looked at the maid and said, "My lady can’t help Princess Nanzhang detoxify, why go back again?"

The maid nervously replied, "The Princess Consort invited the Heir’s wife to return."

Ah?

How could it be the Princess Consort?

Xingxing glanced at Su Jin.

Su Jin curved her lips and said, "Then let’s go back."

Inside the Buddhist Hall.

Su Jin stepped in, and saw Mrs. Zhao kneeling on the ground.

Shortly after Princess Nanzhang spat blood, Mrs. Zhao couldn’t withstand it anymore and knelt down, confessing to the Princess Consort.

Princess Nanzhang’s poisoning was their bitter trick meant to frame Su Jin.

They pretended to search Agarwood Pavilion, aiming to put the antidote there, then "find" it to confirm Su Jin’s maid poisoned Princess Nanzhang.

However, she brought the antidote to Agarwood Pavilion but hadn’t entered yet when Xingxing took the opportunity to frisk her and took the antidote away.

Mrs. Zhao knelt in confession, leaving a room of maids and matrons dumbfounded.

After all, ordinary maids and matrons didn’t know of such affairs.

But unexpectedly, the master they served was this foolish.

Actually poisoning themselves to frame the Heir’s wife, and ended up losing the life-saving antidote.

Xingxing walked in and said, "Mrs. Zhao, don’t falsely accuse yourself just to have my lady save Princess Nanzhang."

Everyone, "...."

Mrs. Zhao got anxious.

Heir’s wife this time is adamant about taking the Commandery Princess’s life.

Now, they dared not act against Su Jin, all they wanted was to retrieve the antidote, pretending nothing ever happened.

Mrs. Zhao raised her hand and swore, "I swear, everything I said is true, or I’ll meet a miserable end."

Su Jin found it amusing.

Outside, Bi Zhu came in and said, "Heir’s wife, the Heir of Marquis Jing Country’s wife is here."

"Invite her in," Su Jin said.

Bi Zhu stepped out, and soon Qin Hanhan entered.

She had been guided from the Prince Zhenbei Mansion’s gate all the way to such a small corner, passing through most of the mansion, she was a bit dazed.

The Princess Consort looked at Su Jin.

She knew Su Jin had a good relationship with the Heir of Marquis Jing Country’s wife, but there’s no reason to meet in the Buddhist Hall.

Qin Hanhan glanced at Mrs. Zhao kneeling on the ground, looked at Su Jin and said, "Why call me here in such urgency?"

Su Jin touched her nose and said, "Encountered a tricky poison, inviting you to help detoxify Princess Nanzhang."

Mrs. Zhao, "...!!!"

Xie Jinyu, "...!!!"

Xie Jingchuan, "...!!!"

Looking at their darkened faces turning purple, Manager Li felt they would sooner or later be infuriated to death by the Heir’s wife.

Pity Mrs. Zhao had just confessed, yet the Heir of Marquis Jing Country’s wife came to detoxify Princess Nanzhang.

The Heir of Marquis Jing Country’s wife hailed from the Southern Border, most skilled in using poison and parasites.

The Heir’s wife said she couldn’t detoxify Princess Nanzhang, not meaning she’d just sit back, here she called the Heir of Marquis Jing Country’s wife for help.

Su Jin ignored them, leading Qin Hanhan to Princess Nanzhang’s bedside.

Qin Hanhan looked at Princess Nanzhang, then at Su Jin, her lips twitched.

She took out a Gu Worm, Su Jin said, "Why does this Gu Worm look so familiar?"

Qin Hanhan cooperated and said, "This is the Gu Worm extracted from Princess Qi’s body."

While speaking, Qin Hanhan placed the Gu Worm in Princess Nanzhang’s palm.

The Gu Worm climbed up along the wrist, somehow entering the body.

Xie Jinyu and Xie Jingchuan stood by the bedside, and after the Gu Worm was placed, Xie Jinyu asked the Imperial Physician to take Princess Nanzhang’s pulse.

The Imperial Physician was surprised and said, "It’s counteracting the poison."

The Gu Worm’s detoxification was slow, it took a quarter of an hour to finish.

Qin Hanhan extracted the Gu Worm from Princess Nanzhang’s body and put it in a bamboo tube.

Princess Nanzhang’s poison was cured, the Imperial Physician, carrying his medicine box, prepared to bid farewell.

Su Jin looked at him, "Please trouble the Imperial Physician to enter the palace and report the matter of Prince Zhenbei Mansion to the Emperor in detail."

The Imperial Physician, "...."

Xie Jinyu and Xie Jingchuan’s faces changed.

Would letting the Emperor know possibly yield any advantage?

Xie Jinyu hurriedly admitted wrongdoing.

Su Jin chuckled, "Now you know how to admit mistakes?"

"Too late."
