“You harmed my daughter, my son… It’s all because of you that our family has ended up like this! Both you and Wu Jinyan should die! You both deserve to die!”
Liang Jin swiftly summoned his men. “Roar in court! Capture her!”
Madam Wu was subdued by Liang Jin’s bailiffs. Despite Liang Jin’s repeated attempts to dissuade her, Madam Wu continued her tirade.
Growing annoyed, Liang Jin had no choice but to sentence her. “Disrupting the court, disrespecting me, thirty lashes!”
“No! That’s not how it should be! Liang Jin, you, the capital governor, should have beaten Su Yingxue to death! She deserves to die!”
Madam Wu shouted at the top of her lungs, saliva dripping from the corner of her mouth.
She had been the madam of a minister for many years, and all her years of dignity and image had been destroyed today.
Both she and Wu Hongtao couldn’t escape Liang Jin’s punishment. Liang Jin beat them up in public.
Once the beating was done, they were carried away by their servants.
Many commoners who had attended the hearing witnessed the entire trial and cast scornful glances at them. Some even pelted them with rotten eggs and vegetables.
Su Yingxue stood beside Wu Jinyan and asked her, “Sister Jinyan, do you feel relieved?”
Wu Jinyan managed a bitter smile. “Yes, i do.”
However, she had also severed ties with her biological father.
Now, she felt a sense of relief.
Outside the courtroom, Su Hao was waiting.
Su Yingxue waved at him and wanted to walk over with Wu Jinyan.
Behind them, Liang Jin suddenly approached. “Miss Su, please wait. 1 have something to discuss with you.”
Su Yingxue nudged Wu Jinyan. “Sister, you and brother can leave first.”
“Wait, Yingxue, are you alright? I’ll ask your brother to come and stay with you.” Wu Jinyan was nervously sweating.
She hadn’t had a chance to ask Su Yingxue how she managed to get Wu Hongtao to confess and apologize to her.
With the case now concluded, and Liang Jin preventing her from leaving, she couldn’t help but feel worried.
“No need, brother rarely has free time. He needs to accompany you to the shop for decoration. Although I’m investing, if brother wants to contribute, I won’t refuse.” Su Yingxue smiled, reassuring Wu Jinyan to leave with Su Hao.
She followed Liang Jin to the back hall.
In the back hall, Liang Jin had someone prepare tea.
After interrogating the case for half a day, Liang Jin’s mouth was dry. He thought that Su Yingxue was the same.
Su Yingxue finished her tea and looked at Liang Jin. “Lord Liang, do you want to ask if 1 poisoned Lord Wu?”
Liang Jin shook his head. “I had a doctor examine Lord Wu’s pulse, and there are no signs of poisoning. Even if I were to ask, Miss Su might not tell me. It’s best not to inquire.”
A trace of surprise flickered in Su Yingxue’s eyes. Liang Jin was indeed perceptive and had a deep understanding.
“Then, Lord Liang, what would you like to discuss?”
Liang Jin nodded. “Miss Su, you’re intelligent. Since the court is adjourned, 1 am no longer an official. Speaking as an elder, 1 wish to have a conversation with Miss Su.”
“Miss Su, are you aware that before the court session, the Ninth Prince visited me and said something?”
Su Yingxue shook her head. “I am not aware.”
She hadn’t paid attention to Chu Yihan’s whereabouts.
“Your Highness stated that if 1 were to harm you even slightly, he would reduce my Capital Prefecture to ruins.”
Liang Jin’s tone grew somber.
Su Yingxue’s brow twitched. She hadn’t expected Chu Yihan to be so…
Well, there was nothing to be surprised about.
In front of the emperor, Chu Yihan was domineering and fierce, and he might not even give a face to him, let alone Liang Jin..
