Ying Zijin, the former big man, woke up and became the youngest daughter of the Ying family who had been missing for 15 years, and decisively adopted a child to replace her.
After returning, ...
Chapter 701 Suwen: This is my daughter's name [2 updates]
The voice was like flowing water and singing, carrying a soothing power.
It may not be large, but it has a strong penetrating power.
"..."
There was a moment of silence in the courtroom.
The knights guarding both sides of the courtroom turned around in unison, and were stunned by what they saw.
The woman walked in slowly.
Her clothes were not fancy or extravagant.
She wore a simple, plain-colored long dress, with a jeweled belt cinching her waist to accentuate her graceful figure.
But she possesses a unique, majestic aura, commanding respect without being angry.
Suwen, once the most beautiful woman in the world's city!
Nearly twenty years have passed, and the woman's appearance has not changed in the slightest.
But the passage of time has made her appear more mature and graceful, possessing a powerful maternal glow.
The presiding judge stood up abruptly, his pupils contracting sharply in shock: "Madam Suwen!"
The presiding judge is fifty years old this year and is of the same generation as Suwen.
And in their generation, everyone knew the name Suwen.
At that time, Suwen was every man's dream lover and the object of affection for many elders.
“Your Honor,” Su Wen nodded and smiled, “I have just recovered and am late, please forgive me.”
"No, no, no, please forgive me." The presiding judge was so excited that he was incoherent. "Madam Suwen, it's wonderful that you've woken up!"
This news will surely cause a sensation in cities all over the world!
Su Wen stepped forward, took Ying Zijin's hand, and smiled, "Your Honor, this is my savior. She is a young girl, but her medical skills are excellent. Thanks to her, I was able to wake up."
Ying Zijing lowered her eyes, looking at the woman's hand, her eyelashes trembling slightly.
There was a warmth that she craved.
It's so beautiful that you don't want to leave.
On the side.
The third wife and the doctor's faces had turned completely green, their expressions filled with disbelief.
How did Suwen wake up?
Shouldn't he have died from the poison?!
The presiding judge managed to calm down: "Madam Suwen, so you are actually fine."
“No, of course I was.” Su Wen’s smile faded, and she glanced at the trembling doctor. “At that time, I was already somewhat conscious. Although I couldn’t move, I could hear very clearly.”
"This person poisoned me."
"thump!"
With a loud thud, the doctor suddenly knelt on the ground, his body limp: "Madam Suwen, I...I didn't, I really..."
The judge's sharp gaze locked onto the doctor.
The doctor felt a chill run through her body. In a panic, she grabbed the Third Madam's clothes and cried out, "Third Madam, I'm just following your orders! You can't just stand by and watch me die!"
"Nonsense!" The third wife panicked and kicked the doctor away. "This is my sister-in-law. How could I possibly order you to poison her?"
When she looked up, she met Su Wen's clear, dark eyes, and a chill ran through her.
It's over.
If Suwen could hear, then she would definitely have heard her conversation with the doctor.
But the Third Madam still couldn't understand how Suwen had woken up!
"Take him away!" the judge ordered decisively. "No trial needed, execute him immediately."
Once the toxins take effect, Suwen will undoubtedly die.
Needless to say, Suwen's status is among the top in the world's elite circles.
Targeting her is not only going against the elite circles, but also defying the authority of the Academy of Sages.
The death penalty is considered a light punishment.
"Third Madam! Third Madam, save me!" Upon hearing this verdict, the doctor broke down and screamed in anguish, "Third Madam, you said that once you took control of the Lyinger family, you would speak well of me before the Sage."
"Third Madam, I don't want to die!"
All eyes were on the Third Madam, who felt as if she were a thorn in her side.
The Third Madam wanted nothing more than to tear the doctor's mouth apart, but with Suwen watching her, she froze in place, too afraid to move.
Damn it, that stupid thing dragged her down completely!
“Your Honor, now that the matter is resolved, I’d like to head back.” Su Wen withdrew her gaze. “These are our family members; I can handle it.”
The presiding judge nodded, his expression serious: "Madam Suwen, I will report to the Academy of Sages immediately that you have awakened."
He personally escorted Suwen and Ying Zijin back to the Leinger family before heading to the Sage's Court.
Suwen has awakened, which is indeed a big deal.
It's something the whole city should celebrate.
**
The Lengel family.
In the lobby.
"Sister-in-law." Relieved to see Suwen was alright, Xinai said, "Just now you..."
“It’s poisonous blood in the body,” Ying Zijing said slowly. “If you don’t vomit it out, it will affect your heart and other organs.”
"That's right, I feel much better, even better than before." Su Wen's expression was gentle yet earnest. She looked at the girl and said softly, "Little Divine Doctor, thank you so much. I'll cook for you myself tonight and invite you to my family home, is that alright?"
Ying Zijing looked into those watery eyes and paused for a moment before replying, "Okay."
"Then it's settled. I have something else I want to tell you." Suwen squeezed the girl's hand again and smiled. "I have some things to take care of first. Little Divine Doctor, you can wander around as you like."
After saying this, she turned around, lifted her skirt, and ascended the throne.
"Ah Ying, wait a while before you turn around." Xinai stepped aside. "Sister-in-law is about to deal with someone."
Ying Zijin gazed at Suwen on the throne, lost in thought for a moment.
Su Wen glanced indifferently at the Third Madam kneeling on the ground and ordered the guards, "Lock her up first, and execute her when Mo Qian returns."
Upon hearing this, the Third Madam's face changed: "No...no! You can't imprison me! You can't execute me either!"
"What she said is only one side of the story. I have absolutely no disloyalty to the Lyinger family! I would never want to harm you, sister-in-law!"
“With the patriarch absent, the First Madam holds the power of life and death over the entire family.” Sinai smiled coldly. “Third Madam, I think you haven’t forgotten that.”
At present, the Sage's House has not ordered the Lyinger family to re-elect their patriarch.
The power naturally remained in Suwen's hands.
Aside from the direct descendants of the Leinger family, anyone's life or death can be decided with just a single word from Suwen.
The Third Madam's face turned deathly pale instantly. She trembled as she raised her head, her arrogance waning: "First Madam..."
In her plan, Suwen should have already gone to meet the King of Hell by now!
How could he possibly sit here and decide her life or death?
Suwen tapped her fingers lightly on the armrest of the throne, lowered her eyes, and smiled slightly: "It's understandable that my third sister-in-law is a latecomer and doesn't know my style of handling things."
The third wife knelt on the ground, sweat beading on her forehead, her clothes soaked with cold sweat.
What is the style of Suwen?
She had already heard about it before she joined the Lyinger family.
Suwen came from a prestigious family and had always been a well-bred young lady.
She is dignified and elegant, equally at home in the living room and the kitchen.
She knows how to arrange flowers and brew tea, just like other women.
She can do horseback riding and shooting, just like men can.
Suwen was gentle in nature, but definitely not weak.
The Third Madam had heard her husband, Mo Qian, mention it.
Especially in the year Suwen married Lu Yuan, a riot broke out in the Lengel family.
Lu Yuan didn't even need to lift a finger; Su Wen shot the traitor dead with just a few shots.
Such a woman is like a rose with thorns; she is not easy to bully.
Only after experiencing it firsthand did the Third Madam realize how terrifying Suwen was.
"Sister-in-law, I was bewitched for a moment!" The third wife kowtowed desperately and began to plead, "Sister-in-law, please forgive me, please forgive me."
"I've been married to Mo Qian for over ten years, you can't do this!"
Suwen remained unmoved and spoke again: "Take him away."
The guards forcefully dragged the wailing Third Madam away, giving her no chance to struggle.
The hall was completely silent.
The servants didn't dare to speak either.
With Suwen waking up, the situation of the Leinger family was completely disrupted.
Everything needs to be reshuffled and started anew.
Su Wen remained silent for a long time before standing up and saying, "Xiao Xinai, come with me to the cemetery for a stroll."
Sinai's eyes narrowed slightly: "Okay."
Suwen smiled again: "Little Divine Doctor, would you like to come along too?"
**
The cemetery on the back hill is very large.
This is where direct descendants of the Leinger family are buried.
Ying Zijin followed Suwen and Xinai inside and looked at the hundreds of tombstones in the cemetery.
Suwen walked all the way to the innermost part of the cemetery and stopped in front of a very small tombstone.
She lowered her head, stroked the tombstone, and whispered, "This is my daughter's name."
Sinai was taken aback: "Sister-in-law?"
Ying Zijin was behind and could see it very clearly.
The tombstone was well protected, but after a long period of wind and rain, some damage has appeared at the edges.
It has stood here for nearly twenty years.
The words on the tombstone were carved, and there were several dents with blood on them.
This proves that Suwen used his own hands, stroke by stroke, to write these six characters on this piece of white marble.
The tomb of my beloved daughter, Tanxin.
March 24, 2003.
