No. This was clearly not the medicine she had used. Although the one she used was also bliss powder, it was in a green bottle and not in a red one.

The Qinghe group instantly recalled how a manservant had accidentally knocked her down when they had first arrived. Could it be that the manservant had placed it on her back then?

She immediately knelt down and cried, “Young Master, Eldest Madam, I’ve been wronged. This medicine really isn’t mine. I was seen by someone on my way here. The person behind the scenes must have taken the opportunity to place it on me. Even if you give me ten times the courage, I wouldn’t dare to harm my master. Young Master, please investigate this further.”

“What’s going on, Chao Sheng?” Shen Juncheng pretended to be surprised.

Since he could not see, he naturally ‘did not know’ that the medicine had fallen from the body of a maid belonging to the Qinghe group.Therefore, he had a surprised look on his face.

Chao Sheng took a step forward and replied, “Young master, a medicine bottle just fell from Qinghe’s body. Doctor Lu opened the bottle and sniffed it. He confirmed that it contained bliss powder. Young Master, Qinghe is the one who drugged it.”

“What?!” Shen Juncheng took a step back in shock. “How could it be? How could it be the Qinghe group? Aunt Yi, I thought you loved me. How could you let the Qinghe group drug me when you clearly know that I’m unwell? I don’t believe it.”

Shen Juncheng looked as if he could not take the blow and started coughing again. That look really made people sympathize with him.

Not only are you blind, but you also trust your aunt very much. In the end, your aunt wants to harm you, silly child.

Among those relatives, not all of them were snobbish. There were also some who felt bad about it and comforted him. However, they could not offend Mrs Liu, so they could only smooth things over. “Did a misunderstanding occur? Young Master, don’t get too excited. You don’t look well.”

Shen Juncheng coughed until his face turned red. “Aunt, where is Aunt?”

Liu Shi looked at Shen Juncheng with a dark expression.

She naturally recalled the time when someone bumped into the Qinghe group when they had arrived.

No wonder he easily agreed to not conduct the body search. He had a backup plan.

She had been careless. The sickly invalid was actually so meticulous that he was already a step ahead of her.

She glanced at the Qinghe group. The maidservant was so stupid that she did not even realize that someone had stuffed something into her. There was no use keeping her.

“Cheng’er, I’m here.” She looked even more surprised than Shen Juncheng. “Why would I harm you? You have to believe me. It’s this maidservant who has ill intentions. I’ve really misjudged you. Don’t worry, Aunty will definitely help you.”

Saying so, she put on a resentful look. “Qinghe, why are you doing this? This Furen has always treated you well. So why did you do this? Because of you, Furen was unjustly framed.”

“Is it because this Furen appointed you as a Tongfang of Young Master? Were you so unwilling to serve him that you decided to kill the Young Master?”

Madam Liu casually made up a reason about why the Qinghe Group would commit the crime.

“No, Madam, I’m really innocent. I really didn’t drug him. Oh, Young Madam, Young Madam can testify for me. I really don’t have such a drug…”

Unfortunately, the Young Madam was currently ‘unconscious’, and no one could testify for her.

So what if she was awake? If she was really a witness, how could she explain the medicine that fell from her body? Most people would think that they were in cahoots.

Mrs. Liu secretly thought that he was really stupid and angrily flicked her sleeves. “Don’t say anything else. You’ve really disappointed me. Guards, Qinghe deliberately plotted to harm the master. You’ve offended your superior. Drag her out and beat him to death.”
