The poisonous woman is frivolous, please be gentle with me, Your Highness.

Chapter 323 No Next Time
"Hurry, shush..." The third lady made a gesture to silence her.

In less than a moment, the noise outside was completely heard in front of her eyes. Mrs. Zhao San took the opportunity to slightly conceal the panic on her face.

At the same time, he also signaled Zhao Yiran to do so.

By the time Bai Qianxi and the old lady came in, the mother and daughter were already ready.

With just the right amount of surprise on her face, Mrs. Zhao San spoke first, "Mother, why are you here? Ya'er is fine, she was just a little scared just now. Now she's rested for a while and is much better now."

"Really?" The old lady looked calm and collected, and there was nothing unusual about her.

But the Third Madam couldn't help but feel startled and laughed dryly, "Mom...what's wrong with you? Why do you look so...strange?"

"I wonder if you really don't know or are you pretending not to know?"

With just a quick glance, the old lady could roughly know what the third son's wife was thinking!
"I came here to look for her." The old lady looked directly at Zhao Yiran, not wanting to talk to her.

The third wife has long been accustomed to the old lady's attitude. After all, the old lady has never liked her since she entered the house!
Seeing her petty appearance, the old lady snorted again.

She said why Yaer could develop such a temper even though she was by her side, it turned out that it was all because of her, as a mother, who taught her well!

A hint of depression emerged, and the old lady looked at Madam Zhao San with an increasingly unpleasant look, "There are only a few of us here, and I won't beat around the bush with you."

"Today I did not make public what you did. You should thank Xier for pleading for you."

"If it weren't for Xi'er, I would never let this matter go today. I hope you can remember today's lesson, abide by your duties from now on, and know what to do and what not to do!"

The old lady's cold voice sounded, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Zhao Yiran no longer had the warmth of the past.

Being stared at with such cold eyes by the old lady, Zhao Yiran felt nervous, but at the same time, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Since the old lady said so, it means that the matter is over.

She just didn't know how the old lady was going to punish them, and the thought of this made her heart beat again.

But the old lady came up with the answer very quickly, "Although Yaran was bewitched by him in this incident, she still has evil intentions."

"I will punish you by making you copy the sutras 100 times in the Buddhist temple. During this time, you can only be a vegetarian. You can come out only when you finish copying and realize you made a mistake."

"No one is allowed to visit us during this time. As for you." The old lady not only looked at Madam Zhao San beside her, "As a mother, you have not educated your children properly, so you are also punished to reflect on your mistakes behind closed doors for this period of time. You are not allowed to go to these banquets outside for the time being."

This is simply putting both mother and daughter under house arrest!

Upon hearing the punishment decision, both mother and daughter looked a little unhappy.

The circle in the imperial city is not small but not big either. If the two of them cannot show up, they don’t know how outsiders will view them.

In addition, there is the copying of scriptures. There are so many scriptures in this world. If she copies them all a hundred times, how long will it take for her to finish copying them?

Not to mention that during this period of time, she had to stay in the Buddhist temple all the time. Thinking of that gloomy and terrifying place, Zhao Yiran couldn't help but feel resentful!

Since her grandmother loved her so much, why couldn't she punish her differently? Besides, it was clearly Li Yan who had influenced her...

"What? Are you still dissatisfied?" Seeing the changes in the expressions of the mother and daughter, the two of them were slightly disappointed again.

She knew she was wrong but still didn't repent. How could such a person appear in her Zhao family? I hope this period of time can give them some peace of mind. The old lady sighed.

At this time, facing the old lady's question, the expressions on the mother and daughter's faces changed rapidly, and they lowered their eyebrows and said, "Mother/Grandmother is right to punish you, and your daughter-in-law/Ya'er has no objection."

Almost at the same time, the two spoke.

The old lady sighed again, and her tone softened a little, "You should know that my purpose is not to punish you, but to let you know the lessons learned from this experience."

"Don't be fooled by those thieves in the future. No matter how big the conflicts are with your family members, you should remember that we are all family and we should stand together no matter what happens..."

Facing the old lady's teachings, the two of them bowed their heads respectfully.

"I have said everything I need to say. Xier, you are the victim. If you have anything to say to them, please say it as soon as possible."

"They will have to go and receive their punishment in a while." The old lady would not allow the two of them to delay here any longer.

Bai Qianxi was just about to shake her head when she saw the old lady had already gone out of the house.

This made her take back the words she had prepared, and her eyes fell on the two people in front of her, especially on Zhao Yiran, "This time, for the sake of my grandmother, I can choose to let you go."

"But I hope you can remember this lesson. If you continue to provoke me next time, it won't be such a simple lesson!" A cold voice sounded, and Bai Qianxi looked at the person in front of her with an extremely cold expression, and there seemed to be a hint of murderous intent.

Zhao Yiran's face turned pale instantly.

She could clearly feel that the person in front of her was definitely not lying!

Even the Third Madam's face looked a little ugly. Bai Qianxi actually threatened her daughter in front of her, but she couldn't do anything...

Having said everything that needed to be said, without any hesitation, Bai Qianxi turned around and chose to leave.

Although the people behind him looked horrified, they also breathed a sigh of relief. Great, this matter is finally over...

Zhao Yiran almost collapsed on the stool, and the Third Madam couldn't help but feel heartbroken when she saw this.

"Master, are we going to let her go so easily?" On the way back, Bai Wangqi still felt a little aggrieved.

She heard with her own eyes how these people treated their master!
"Well... this matter ends here, but you can go to the prison and interrogate Li Yan to find out what happened to those victims over the years. If there is anything we can do to help..."

"Let's help."

Having said that, in reality the only way they can help is to provide some subsidies to the relatives of the victims.

In addition, punishing the culprit can be regarded as revenge for those girls.

"Anyway, Xiao Qi, investigate first. If there are any survivors, see if you can save them..."

"Yes, master."

Bai Wangqi nodded without hesitation, his expression equally solemn.

The master had just told her the specific things they knew about the other party on the way here.

Bai Wangqi also sympathized with those innocent women, but what she was most thankful for was... her master was fine.
