Seeing the wonderful expression on Shen Tingsi's face, Jiang Xiancao laughed maliciously:

"This prince understands Miss Jiang's feelings. You feel ashamed, right? The person you trusted so deeply betrayed you so deeply. Tsk tsk, this is unbearable for anyone."

The Huo brothers and sisters next to her didn't understand what she meant, but Shen Tingsi knew very well in his heart that Jiang Xiancao was mocking him for being cuckolded!

He glared at Jiang Xiancao in frustration, his red and swollen eyes filled with fragility and helplessness.

Jiang Xiancao just sneered and turned his head, not even bothering to look at him.

It was because he was not clear-headed that he liked a woman like Jiang Huaizhu, and it was because he believed Jiang Huaizhu's lies that he recognized the wrong benefactor.

Therefore, the harm he suffered now was all his own fault.

At this moment, the gate of the Wen Ning Marquis's Mansion opened, and the servants from the Ministry of Justice came out, escorting the five young masters of the Jiang family.

The alley was suddenly filled with noise.

The onlookers were talking loudly:

"Look, the one walking in front is the former top scholar, Eastern Palace scholar Jiang Jinyan!"

"Isn't he said to be one of the most talented children of the aristocratic families? The Emperor even personally appointed him to the Eastern Palace. How could such a refined and elegant person be capable of such a thing?"

"Haven't you heard that those who are righteous are usually butchers, and those who are unfaithful are usually scholars? This Jiang Jinyan, he read too many books and lived too well, but he didn't learn how to be a good person."

"Many scholars are loyal and righteous. It was Jiang Jinyan himself who disregarded the principles taught in the sages' books and was bewitched by a seductive adopted daughter. He even forgot the righteousness of his family and country, and even bullied his own sister. How could someone like him be worthy of being called a scholar of talent?"

"Yes, he doesn't deserve it. He's a hypocrite with a slick exterior and a rotten heart, a beast in human form!"

Because when people talk about the Marquis Wen Ning's Mansion, the first person mentioned is Jiang Jinyan, the eldest son who is in the limelight.

So now he is the first one to be scolded.

The others hid behind him, fearing that passers-by would point and talk at them.

Jiang Jinyan blushed with shame. He wanted to hide, but there was nowhere to hide. He could only face people's curses and spitting.

Huo Xuanguang, the official in charge of the punishment, walked up to him and said in a deep voice:

"Jiang Jinyan, do you admit your guilt?"
