Chapter 34 Lessons
Not recognized.
The two words were like two bowls of boiling oil, poured on Su Dingqin's anger.
On one side was Su Zhiyi, who was holding back her tears, and on the other side was Yu Shengsheng, who refused to admit her mistake.
The scale in Su Dingqin's heart tilted without any hesitation.
"Don't admit it! I told you not to admit it!"
He turned around and saw his personal guard with a horsewhip on his waist. He snatched it away and held it in his hand.
"I'll ask you again, do you admit it or not?"
Yu Shengsheng tried to stand up: "I don't recognize it."
Su Dingqin raised the whip and was about to hit Yu Shengsheng.
Yu Shengsheng closed her eyes.
Su Dingqin's wrist was grabbed by someone. He turned back in shock and anger, and met Lu Xingzhan's half-smile.
"Su Dingqin," Lu Xingzhan said indifferently, "Is she your enemy? I don't think I'm a good person, and I've done a lot of bad things, but I've never beaten a woman in public like you did."
"She's still my sister."
Su Dingqin sneered, swung his arm, and broke free from Lu Xingzhan: "Mr. Lu, this is the Su family, not a teahouse. This time I am disciplining my own family, so I don't need to go to Jingzhao Mansion, right?"
Lu Xingzhan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Su Dingqin, who are you being sarcastic with? I won't tolerate your anger! Are you sick in the head? You even know a maid, whoever is mixed up, you ask whoever, but you have to pick on this fool."
"You would rather trust a maid than your sister, right?"
Su Dingqin's breath was choked. Is he like this?
How is it possible? Of course he trusted Shengsheng, but Zhiyi felt wronged because Rujian was just her maid.
The prince's eyes swept across Lu Xingzhan and fell on Yu Shengsheng.
Yu Shengsheng's mouth was bleeding, and she looked very pitiful, but she still refused to admit defeat or admit her mistake. The prince's heart was filled with desire, and he wanted to snatch the whip from Su Dingqin's hand and beat Yu Shengsheng himself.
Is it because of Lu Xingzhan that Yu Shengsheng dared to go against him and try to escape from him?
Do you think that by getting close to the Lu family, you can escape from his control?
There was a hint of amusement in the prince's eyes. Let alone the Lu family, even if Kong Dezhao came to Beijing and married Lu Shengsheng, he would still have a way to make Yu Shengsheng his plaything.
Such an interesting person is not easy to find.
There is no way he would let go unless he is dead - even if he does, he has to let go on his own initiative. It is impossible for him to escape or be rescued by others.
"Mr. Lu," he said, "this is a family affair of the Su family. In my opinion, people who don't know the inside story should not speak up."
Lu Xingzhan laughed, "Your Highness, I don't agree with what you said. Storytellers often say that when you see injustice, you should draw your sword to help. If no one speaks up, the people in the court will be considered dumb, and those old censors will save themselves the trouble."
Others are afraid of the prince, but Lu Xingzhan is not. He cannot be too disobedient and give others a handle against him, so it is okay to play a yin and yang trick.
The prince smiled deeply, his eyes burning, and Su Yanshu said at the right time: "Shengsheng, quickly admit your mistake to big brother, and stop being stubborn."
"We have to take a boat later, don't spoil everyone's fun."
Yu Shengsheng looked up at him, her eyes as dark as night: "I did nothing wrong, how can I admit it?"
Before Su Yanshu could open his mouth, Su Dingqin's whip fell on him.
"You won't recognize me!"
"Snap!" The whip hit Yu Shengsheng hard.
Summer shirts are thin to begin with, and although the horsewhip is thin, it still leaves a bloody mark on the delicate skin.
Yu Shengsheng felt a burning sensation on her skin and flesh. The pain instantly spread throughout her body and sweat immediately oozed out of her forehead.
She clutched the ground with both hands, and beads of sweat dripped onto the soil.
Before I could catch my breath, the next whip came.
"Do you admit it?"
"No, admit it!"
Lu Xingzhan looked at the two bloodstains and felt a little reluctant. Just as he was about to say something again, someone outside the crowd said, "If she doesn't admit it, beat her until she admits it!"
Everyone turned around and saw that it was Old Madam Su and Madam Su who came.
Originally, the invitation was written by Su Yanshu, and the young people gathered together to have fun, so the old lady and Mrs. Su did not come.
But I know the real purpose of this Lotus Appreciation Banquet, so I have been sending people to keep an eye on the progress here.
When I heard that the prince had arrived, I thought everything would be smooth sailing, but I didn't expect that complications would arise suddenly and Shen Zhiyuan would be dragged into the matter.
When Old Madam Su heard about this, she angrily threw the lotus cup and brought people to see it in a threatening manner.
Just then I heard Yu Shengsheng say that he didn't recognize her.
When she got closer, Madam Su took one look at Yu Shengsheng lying on the ground and her gaze narrowed.
When Madam Su saw this, she immediately burst into tears: "Shengsheng... Dingqin, how could you hit her like this?"
Su Zhiyi let out a long breath, and a smile uglier than crying appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Grandma, mother, it's my fault, it's all my fault for being useless..."
When Mrs. Su saw that she was trying not to cry, she felt even more distressed and hurried over to hug her.
"Silly boy, this is none of your business."
Madam Su's surprise faded away. She glanced at Shen Zhiyuan and Ru Jian, suppressed her anger, and looked at Yu Shengsheng.
"I've told you a long time ago that you shouldn't worry about the Shen family's marriage, but we won't treat you unfairly. I've found a good marriage for you in the past few days."
"But you harbored resentment and made Master Shen look so ugly, bringing shame to the Shen and Su families. How can such a big mistake be let go?"
Madam Su looked at Su Dingqin and said, "Hit him! The Su family has a strict family tradition and is even stricter in educating their children. This is related to character, how can we be careless?"
Every word Madam Su spoke was sonorous and resounding.
Madam Su sobbed, "Mother, can you..."
Old Madam Su glanced at her, then she lowered her head and said nothing more.
Su Dingqin raised the whip again and whipped Yu Shengsheng, leaving a series of loud noises and blood marks.
Yu Shengsheng clenched her fingers and said nothing.
Jin Baobao's eyes turned red: "Miss!"
"Are you all blind? What does this shameless woman named Ru Jian have to do with my young lady?"
"Shen, you bastard, if you're a man, just tell the truth. Who the hell are you?"
"One of you is called Jian, and the other is a slut, no wonder you can get together."
Jin Baobao grew up in the city, so he doesn't have so many scruples and dares to say anything.
The old lady was shaking with anger, and pointed at her with her hands holding Buddhist beads: "Come here, tie her up and beat her together!"
"Pull out her tongue for me first."
The old lady usually pretends to be kind, but this is the first time in all these years that she has been scolded so harshly that she can no longer pretend.
Upon hearing this, several of Su Dingqin's men went over to capture Jin Baobao.
“Don’t…” a voice escaped from Yu Shengsheng’s mouth.
No one could hear clearly what she said, but Su Dingqin could guess it and increased the strength in his hands.
Su Zhiyi leaned in Madam Su's arms, her long eyelashes drooping, hiding the sinister smile in her eyes.
Even if the person who was defiled was not Yu Shengsheng, his reputation would be ruined after being beaten in public today.
As for Shen Zhiyuan, it doesn't matter. She doesn't like him anyway and has no intention of marrying him. Wouldn't it be better to use this incident to make people think that she is the victim?
Jin Baobao was also captured and taken to Yu Shengsheng.
The old lady pointed and was about to give an order when she suddenly heard someone's voice outside the Moon Gate.
“The Su family is really lively!”
