She walked over and said, "Let me see what kind of little beast dares to come to my prime minister's house to cause trouble!"

"Hey, don't...be careful." Wu Zuo's heart was trembling.

Aunt Liu snatched the snake and gave Yan Lingyan a meaningful look.

The snake hissed at her twice, then opened its mouth and was about to bite.

"ah!"

Aunt Liu was so frightened that she screamed and the cage in her hand fell to the ground. The already weak cage suddenly fell apart.

The snake seemed to have a purpose and crawled towards Yan Lingyan quickly.

Everyone was in a mess, and Yan Lingzhong desperately pulled Yan Lingyan back, protecting Yan Lingyan behind him.

Yan Lingyan looked at the snake with a sneer and had two bamboo leaves ready in her hand.

Just when the snake bounced up and was about to pounce on Yan Lingzhong, Xiao An suddenly rushed in front of Yan Lingzhong and caught the snake.

As soon as the snake came into contact with Xiao An's skin, it twisted twice and then softened.

The smiles on Aunt Liu and Yan Linglan's faces froze, and they became extremely surprised.

Wuzuo stepped forward tremblingly, "Little girl, this is the Poison King! Are you okay?"

"Don't worry, sir, I'm fine." Xiao An said.

Then Xiao Hei brought another cage and put the snake in it.

After leaving Xiao An, the snake suddenly became energetic again and became very manic. Especially when it was facing the direction of Yan Lingyan, it opened its mouth and was about to pounce.

Wu Zuo and Liu An noticed something and said, "These snakes seem to only target the eldest lady. Is there anything about the eldest lady that attracts snakes?"

Aunt Liu immediately said: "How is this possible? Maybe snakes also love beauty? After all, our eldest lady is as pretty as a flower..."

"Shut up!" Yan Lingzhong shouted, extremely angry.

He vaguely guessed something, but he didn't dare to make a judgment.

Yan Lingzhong said to Yan Lingyan: "Yan'er, try what you have on you."

Yan Lingyan was surprised by Yan Lingzhong's sudden masculinity, and then nodded.

She tried it one by one with something close to her body. When the sachet came close to the snake, the snake seemed to be extremely excited and kept trying to pounce on the sachet, but it bumped into the cage every time.

Aunt Liu's face tightened, and she twisted her handkerchief hard.

Wu Zuo took the sachet and smelled it, and then said: "This is a scent specially designed to attract this snake. It is worn exclusively by snake catchers. Why would the eldest lady bring such a thing?"

Before Yan Lingyan could speak, Chuanyao suddenly covered her mouth and said, "This is the sachet that Xiu'er brought for the lady!"

Everyone's eyes were attracted to Chuanyao, who nodded hard. "The slave watched Xiu'er hand it to the lady with her own eyes, and then the snake jumped out of nowhere!"

As he said this, he couldn't help but feel a chill on his back.

Guard against day and night, it is difficult to guard against house thieves.

She's just a little maid whom she just bought, but she actually dares to attack her?

Minister Xing ordered: "Who is Xiu'er?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiu'er among the maids lined up was about to run away, but was stopped by the guards and she was brought to Liu An.

"My lord is unjust. This slave knows nothing. Really, I don't know anything. My lord is very aware!" she said tremblingly, fearing that her eyes that were looking left and right would betray her.

Liu An said, "Didn't you give that sachet to the eldest lady?"

"Yes, it's slave... But, slave took it from the sachet sent by the palace before. I don't know anything!"

Xiuer defended.

Liu An took a look at the material of the sachet. It was high-quality fabric and could not be obtained easily.

If this matter involves the royal family, it will be troublesome.

Chuanyao looked at it and said immediately: "That's not something from the palace!"

"What?" Liu An seemed relieved, "How did you determine that?"

Chuanyao said: "The things that the young lady brought from the palace are all embroidered with words. The servants embroidered them themselves. They have also checked them several times. This sachet is definitely not my young lady's own!"

As soon as the words came out, Aunt Liu, who had been relaxed for a while, tensed up her nerves again.

Liu An took a look and saw that there were no words.

He looked at Xiu'er, "How brave! You actually want to harm your master. Someone, take her down!"

"No, no, Second Aunt, please save me, please save me!" Xiu'er said while holding Aunt Liu tightly.

Aunt Liu gritted her teeth and put her hand away, ignoring her.

"No, Second Aunt, hurry up and save me. You don't want me to take the sachet..."

"Pa!" Before she finished speaking, Aunt Liu slapped Xiu'er to the ground.

She had a fierce temper when she was in her parents' home, and she was not a vegetarian when it came to hitting people.

Seeing everyone looking at her suspiciously, Aunt Liu pointed at Xiu'er and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? The eldest lady is your master, why are you asking me for help? You are a shameless bastard, how can you frame the eldest lady?"

What's there to say?"

Xiu'er was stunned. When she regained her senses and heard Aunt Liu say this again, she felt cold, "No... Second Aunt, you didn't say that at the beginning..."

"Pah!"

"What are you talking nonsense about? I'll let you talk nonsense, I'll let you talk nonsense, I'll let you talk nonsense..."

As Aunt Liu spoke, she slapped Xiu'er, thinking that it would be best to slap Xiu'er until she was speechless.

Liu An would not pull Aunt Liu away as she wanted.

"Since the second aunt is innocent, why should she be angry?" Liu An said.

"I..." Aunt Liu was speechless.

Liu An glanced at her and then ordered his subordinates: "Take this slave back."

"No, I don't want to go to the Criminal Department, I don't want..."

Xiu'er struggled and wanted to escape.

But I don't want anything to fall out of my sleeves while pulling.

Chuanyao took a closer look and then shouted, "Okay, the eldest lady treats you well. I just rewarded you with a bracelet, and you actually stole the eldest lady's things!"

"No...I...it's not..."

Xiu'er slumped down, as if she had lost her soul.

Liu An frowned, the Prime Minister's Mansion looked very chaotic!

Where there are many women, the chaos becomes more like a market.

This backyard is not inferior to the emperor's harem.

The enviable and gorgeous appearance is actually extremely dirty behind the scenes.

Yan Linglan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Liu An no longer paid attention to her.

It's great, you don't have to go to the Criminal Department, you don't have to worry about your reputation being ruined, everything is fine.

But she didn't expect that at this moment, she felt a mocking gaze falling on herself.

She looked over and saw that it was Yan Lingyan.

Humph, what are you looking at? Yan Linglan thought to herself, with a proud face on her face.

Her arrogant look almost made her laugh at Yan Lingyan.

Yan Lingyan disagreed.

I smiled in my heart, did I think I would let Yan Linglan go like this?

impossible.

"Then I'll bother you, Mr. Liu." Yan Lingzhong said to Liu An.

Liu An raised his hand and said, "What did the prime minister say? This is my duty and my job."

The two chatted and laughed for a while, looking quite relaxed.

But Aunt Liu next to her was not very relaxed, and her nerves were tense.

I hope Wu Zuo doesn't discover anything.

It's better not to know anything.

The third and fourth aunts were completely in the mood to watch a good show. Now that they are no longer involved in Aunt Liu's affairs, they no longer have to worry about being involved in Aunt Liu's affairs.

Moreover, after being oppressed by Aunt Liu for so long, I have let out a few bad breaths in the past few days. Not to mention how happy I feel.

"Master Wuzuo, come here." Xiao An quietly came to Wuzuo when no one was paying attention.

Wu Zuo was confused for a while, then followed Xiao An to the cage. "What's wrong?"

"This snake is a little strange." Xiao An said.
