The Fourth Lady novel Chapter 119

The Magistrate listened to Linghua's words and casted a glance at Qingyan. Right now, he was evidently asking for Qingyan's opinion. After all this matter involved the Su manor, and right now within Diqiu, the only one that mustn't be provoked was probably this Su Qingyan.

Most importantly, that person had also ordered him to cooperate with this person before him on everything.

"Sir, it's fine to just handle it impartially. After all, we've already split the family." Qingyan answered with a smile.

Hearing Qingyan's words, the Magistrate casted his gaze onto Chai Yiyun, "Madam, do you have anything you need to explain?"

Chai Yiyun shook her head, "I already said, I didn't kill this concubine." She made an innocent expression that would make other's pity her, but the Magistrate wasn't someone that was easy to decieve.

"Third madam, before you would always mistreat our Yiniang, now you're scared to admit to it?" Linghua coldly laughed at Chai Yiyun. "Actually, the previous matter was also madam's doing, right? You even wanted to harm the fourth miss."

The Magistrate knew that the previous matter Linghua was referring to was probably the voodoo doll incident. And the victim of that incident certainly was Su Qingyan and Deng Yan.

"You little wench. So what if I mistreat a lowly concubine, what of it?" Chai Yiyun wanted to give Linghua a slap, but was unexpectedly stopped by the Magistrate.

"Third madam, I think it's better if you take a trip with me to Judicial Office." The Capital Magistrate said in a solemn tone.

"Sir, I already said I didn't kill that concubine." Chai Yiyun looked to the Magistrate's unyielding appearance and pleaded, but the Magistrate wasn't in the mood to care about these things, and only ordered his people to take her away.

Deng Yan was a concubine. There wasn't a way for her to hold a funeral. Qingyan, as Deng Yan's most trusted person, wanted to take her away, but Su Yan clearly was unwilling to give Deng Yan's corpse to Qingyan.

"Third uncle, could it be that you want to hold a funeral for Yiniang?" Qingyan coldly spoke to Su Yan, "I recall concubines don't have the qualifications to enter into the ancestral tombs."

"She's my concubine. Her matters should naturally be handled by me." Su Yan countered without a hint of politeness. He then turned his attention to Su Qingxue and Su Qingcong, "As for them, I will take care of."

"Oh!" Qingyan looked to Su Yan with the corner of her mouth bent. "Can third uncle guarantee that Cong'er and fifth sister won't be mistreated?" Qingyan twirled her jade bracelet and smiled, "If you can't, I think it's best if I were to take care of them."

Su Yan listened to Qingyan word and frowned, "Their biological father isn't dead yet, why should you be the one to take care of them."

Su Yun looked Su Yan, evidently not giving him face, "Third brother, if you're not satisfied, we can go find his Majesty right now and debate things out."

"Cong'er, fifth sister, are you willing to remain in the Su manor or come with me to the General's manor." Qingyan gave the deciding rights to Su Qingxue and Su Qingcong.

"I want to go with fourth sister." The two of them answered at the same.

"Di* mother will mistreat us."
