The Second Mistress was escorted back to the Jinglan Pavilion, and the other managers had dismissed themselves. The assassin was locked inside the firewood storage, while Zhao Liu'er was sent back home.
Old Yu walked behind Su Jiu and asked in a low voice, "Young Mistress, if Zhao Liu'er is allowed to leave just like that, will her life be in danger again?"
Based on the ruthless methods the Second Mistress had used to settle her scores, anything could happen!
Su Jiu shook her head and replied, "Previously, the Second Mistress hired assassins because Zhao Liu'er knew her weakness. Since the beans have already been spilled, she has no reason to kill her anymore. After all, murder is punishable by death! Zhao Liu'er has a sick mother back home, so she can't remain in the Ji Manor."
