Chapter 314: Chapter 314, being instigated to deal with the Empress
Lady Qiao Jin sneered, “The felony you committed was death by a thousand cuts. After your death, your mother became seriously ill and died a long time ago. How could she live alone? Your Sister has a brother like you, how could she have a good marriage?
If you hide the truth for them, letting the murderer roam the world is really extremely foolish!”
Kiln Master Li heard the Empress mention that his second brother’s son and his wife looked similar. Upon closer inspection, there was indeed some resemblance.
Kiln Master Li’s entire body was covered with injuries that had been nailed down, he held Li Fang’s shoulders with both hands and said, “Fang ‘er, uncle has always trusted you the most. Back then, I saw that you had the talent to make porcelain, so I specially wanted you to be my heir. Hurry up and tell the truth. Don’t let your sister die unjustly!”
Li Fang was in so much pain that tears fell down his face. “Uncle, I killed her, I killed her.”
Lu Chen heard him and said coldly, “Since you’ve confessed, then I’ll execute you. But after you die, if I find out that you’re hiding something, I won’t forgive you for deceiving the Emperor. When that time comes, I’ll kill all nine families.
“Your father, your uncle, and your brother are all capital crimes. Also, your mother and your sister will be reduced to lowly status. The Yue Kiln is thriving day by day. Have you thought about letting the Yue kiln break in your hands?”
Li Fang was so frightened that his face turned pale. He knelt down and kowtowed, feeling extremely conflicted.
Until a woman’s voice came from the crowd, “Fang Lang, Fang Lang, how could you kill your sister? How Do You Want Me to live in the future? How do you want our children to live in the future?”
Li Fang turned around and saw a woman coming over. He asked with a trembling voice, “You have a child?”
“Yes, why are you so muddle-headed? Uncle Li is so good to you, and he has taught you everything he knows about celadon. How can you make decisions like this? How Am I supposed to live?”
Nowadays, it was possible for a man and woman to get pregnant before marriage if they got married in the future.
However, the father of her child was such a murderer. It was impossible for him to get married. Her child could only be an illegitimate child. How was she supposed to raise the child?
Her child was already four months old. How could she abort a child that was three months old?
Qiao Jinniang looked at Li Fang and said, “You should also think about your child... the child is innocent.”
Li Fang was extremely conflicted. In the end, he could only kowtow and say,
“The murderer is indeed not me. It’s my father and aunt. Twelve years ago, uncle traveled all over Jiangnan to sell celadon. I saw my father and aunt having an affair.
Aunt was pregnant back then. At that time, my uncle had already been away for five months. This pregnancy definitely wasn’t my uncle’s.
Aunt said that she was going back to her mother’s house in Jinling, but in reality, she was hiding in a farmhouse in Huiji Mountain. At that time, my father even told the public that my mother was pregnant, but in reality, my mother wasn’t pregnant at all.
It was just that my mother was cowardly and listened to my father’s words. She was afraid that my father would hit her, so she had no choice but to admit that she was pregnant.
“After giving birth to Jian ‘er, my aunt said that it was my mother’s. When I was young, I didn’t dare to tell anyone about it. Later, in order to let Jian ‘er inherit the celadon porcelain, my aunt refused to give birth to any sons for my uncle, “The two male fetuses that my aunt gave birth to were both aborted by her.
“Eight years ago, when my uncle chose an heir, my aunt chose Jian ‘er. At that time, I wanted to tell my uncle the truth, but my mother begged me bitterly...”
Li Fang said painfully, “My mother made me swear on her life that I would not tell the truth. I was really unfilial!”
“Later, my uncle felt that Jian ‘er was not serious enough to be a crafty and crafty porcelain maker, so he chose me to be his heir. At that time, I thought that I must repay my uncle well in the future to get rid of the guilt in my heart.
“The kiln was getting better and better. Thanks to the Empress’favor, our celadon came to Chang ‘an from Jiangnan and became a royal merchant. However, who knew that my father and aunt actually killed my sister and framed me.
“My father said that if I did not confess to the crime, he would be a murderer, and his adultery with aunt would be known by others. My biological sister would be stabbed in the back and scolded, and Jian ‘er and I would be despised by uncle, “At that time, celadon will have no successor.
“My mother will be seriously ill and won’t have any money to cure her illness.
“Why don’t you let me confess to the crime? When Jian ‘er becomes the kiln master of Yue Kiln, he will definitely show filial piety to his mother in name. My mother’s illness will also be treated. As for my sister, she has a brother who is a royal merchant. Naturally, she will be able to marry into a good family..
“And the reputation of Yue Kiln Celadon will not be tarnished!”
When Kiln Master Li heard Li Fang’s words, he gave Li Yang a vicious slap on the face. “Slut, Slut!”
Second Uncle Li knelt down and said, “Big Brother, don’t listen to this vile spawn Li Fang’s nonsense. Vile Spawn, you still dare to spout nonsense in public! In order to get away with your crimes, you actually slandered your biological father like this!”
Li Yang also cried and complained, “That’s my biological daughter. How could I kill my biological daughter? husband, it’s not like you don’t know how much I’ve doted on my daughter since young. How could I kill her?”
Li Fang said, “In front of the Emperor and the empress, how could I dare to lie? Moreover, didn’t the people of the Yang family come to look for aunt? The Empress can order people to go to the inn in the south of the city to look for the people of the Yang family.”
“The reason why aunt and father killed sister was because they were instigated by the people of the Yang family in Jiangnan. My father even wanted Jian ‘er to be the kiln owner, so he persuaded aunt.
“Firstly, they wanted to get the Yue kiln. Secondly, the Yang family wanted the empress to feel uncomfortable, so they forced Auntie to agree to this matter.”
Qiao jinniang asked curiously, “Yang Family? Which Yang Family?”
Li Fang said, “The Yang family of the Jinling Prefect. This Li Yang is the stepsister of the Yang Prefect. The Yang Prefect has a daughter named Yang Qinqing.”
“So it’s her.”
Qiao Jinniang remembered the name Yang Qinqing. He could be considered a sworn enemy of hers when she was in school. She was in the Heaven class, and this Miss Yang was in the Huang class.
Back then, the Yang family prefect was only a judge in the Lin ‘an County office. Now, she was a prefect.
After so many years, it was hard for Yang Qinqing to think of a way to harm her even when she was in Lin ‘an.
It was no wonder that after Li Yang’s daughter died, she came knocking on the drum of ascending to the heavens.
Lu Chen asked Qiao jinniang, “Who is Yang Qinqing?”
“An insignificant person.”Qiao Jinniang did not need to put her in her eyes anymore.
Qiao jinniang said, “Li Yang and second brother Li committed the felony of adultery and murder of a woman. Your Majesty, Please Don’t let this adulterous couple off lightly!”
The common people and scholars along the way heard Li Fang’s words and only then knew that they had been used by others. They were even more annoyed that this adulterous couple did not commit adultery enough and even killed a woman to seek family wealth. It was truly extremely disgusting.
At this moment, they all knelt down and begged Lu Chen to punish them heavily.
Second Uncle Li scolded Li Fang angrily, “Are you happy now? Your biological father committed such a felony, and you are not allowed to become an imperial merchant. Our Li family and Yue kiln are completely finished!”
Li Yang cried bitterly as she fell to the ground.
Kiln Master Li was crying to the extreme.
Lu Chen said, “Li Yang and second uncle Li committed the heinous crime of murdering his daughter, committing adultery, and committing adultery. They were sentenced to death by a thousand cuts. Li Fang knew that he did not report the crime and was guilty of deceiving the emperor. Considering that he was filial to his mother, the death penalty could be avoided, but the punishment could not be escaped. He was sent to Lingnan.
“Kiln Master Li did not distinguish between kindness and hatred. He was muddle-headed and was deceived and used by others. He incited the public opinion to be disrespectful to the empress. On account of your bereavement of your daughter, we will not punish him anymore.”
