Chapter 1759: Chapter 1759: Ye Shiniang?

For years, they dared not show their faces again.

But now, someone with no regard for consequences dared to go against her husband. If Jin Jian found out, wouldn’t he be in an uproar!

Madam Su was truly panicked now.

She didn’t know if the Empress Dowager would still look after her after all these years of leaving the imperial palace?

She also didn’t know if the Empress Dowager would be angry with her once she learned what the Su Family had been doing in Lotus Commandery over the years?

Even more, she had no clue about the backgrounds of those who suddenly appeared to target the Su Family.

Why did these mere two servants, upon hearing her mention the Empress Dowager’s name, not panic at all, but instead threatened her severely?

"Who exactly are you, and why do you want to harm our Su Family so?!"

Madam Su wasn’t daring to speak, but that didn’t mean others were just as scared. A woman about the same age as Madam Su jumped out, rushed forward, and loudly questioned the two guards.

"What has our Su Family done to offend you? Eh? If someone has offended you, go find them. Why should we all have to suffer because of them?

We’re innocent, I haven’t offended you. Let me go, I want to get out, I want to leave this damned place!"

Yes, she wanted to take her two children and leave this damned place, the Su Residence; she couldn’t bear to stay a moment longer!

She hadn’t done anything; why should she suffer along with these people from the Su Residence?

"Ye Shiniang?"

One of the guards glanced at the woman and asked.

"You know me?"

Ye Shiniang was shocked that a guard actually knew her name and asked after a good while.

"If you are willing to come forward as the victim and sue Su Wan and Su Ceng at the magistrate’s office, you can leave now. My master will arrange accommodations for you and your two daughters," said the guard.

They had already thoroughly investigated the affairs concerning Su Wan at the residence.

Ye Shiniang was not a willing bride in the Su Residence to be Su Ceng’s concubine; she was forced into marriage.

What surprised them even more was that one of Ye Shiniang’s two daughters was actually Su Wan’s child, conceived when Su Wan took advantage of Ye Shiniang while his brother was not at home, resulting in a daughter.

Su Wan had been hoping for a son from Ye Shiniang, planning to raise him under his own care if it turned out to be a boy.

Because Madam Su had suffered a severe hemorrhage and damaged her health during the birth of Su Meihua, she never conceived again.

Who knew, the child turned out to be a daughter.

Su Wan was disappointed and, not wanting to offend Madam Su, a woman with the Empress Dowager as her backing, did not acknowledge the daughter, letting his own child call his brother ’father.’

This went on for many years.

"What you’re saying is true?"

Upon hearing the guard’s words, Ye Shiniang’s eyes brightened.

"You wretched woman, how dare you... ah!"

When Su Ceng heard Ye Shiniang’s words, he became furious and tried to rush forward to grab Ye Shiniang and give her a severe beating.

Little did he know that before his hand could even touch Ye Shiniang, one of the servants struck him and sent him flying, then grabbed his collar and slapped him several times across the face.

"You, you..."

Su Ceng was not like Su Wan; he had no martial arts skills.
