It is extremely unethical for a son to judge his own mother.
So Ning Yuan could only avoid it, and the case was handed over to the Temple Secretary of the Dali Temple.
Ning Yuan is here just to know the truth of the matter.
What Mrs. Ruan said just now was too shocking. He didn't want to believe that his mother was such a despicable person.
Worse than he thought.
"Yuan'er."
Yu Sanniang looked at him with tears in her eyes, hoping that he would stand on her side. After all, his word was the final word in the Dali Temple.
As long as he suppressed the case and the prefect's side belonged to Ruan Han, Mrs. Ruan would not be able to make trouble.
But Ning Yuan didn't say anything, just looked at her with a cold and distant look.
"Madam Ning An, I am the presiding judge of this case."
The temple secretary sitting in the hall knocked on the alarm block in dissatisfaction. He was much older than Ning Yuan, and he should have been promoted to Shaoqing.
However, Ning Yuan had only been in the Dali Temple for half a year when he was promoted to Shaoqing because he handled two cases.
He was always unwilling to accept the fact that a young boy was superior to him.
This time, Yu Sanniang fell into his hands, and he didn't give her any face at all.
"Sir, I am innocent."
Yu Sanniang frowned and defended herself, "Madam Ruan has gone insane and is talking nonsense everywhere. You can't trust her at all."
"Yes, yes, my wife is not in the right place. She has been nagging me to resign recently. I refused, so she started making trouble here again."
Ruan Han also quickly agreed.
He glared at Madam Ruan fiercely, "Go home when you've had enough of this. Can you please stop going crazy? Think about Quan'er and He Zhu. He Zhu is going to be the Crown Prince's consort."
The temple minister then remembered that Ruan Hezhu was the future Crown Prince's Consort. He could look down on Ruan Han, but the future Crown Prince's Consort was not someone he could afford to offend.
"Don't be impatient, Master Ruan. Sit down and talk. Come, give Master Ruan and his wife a seat."
Yu Sanniang's face darkened. Three people, but only two seats were given. This was clearly a slap in her face.
Once I get through this difficult time, I will definitely punish this temple secretary.
A lowly official dares to act arrogantly in front of her. He really overestimates his own abilities.
Mrs. Ruan did not sit down. She spoke respectfully and word by word.
"Sir, I'm not crazy, nor do I mean to slander anyone. Ruan Han is my husband. If he hadn't gone too far, how could I have come to the Dali Temple to seek justice?"
She was shouting at the top of her lungs, her face full of pain, and what she said was understandable.
Ruan Han is now in his rising period, and Ruan Hezhu has just become the future Crown Prince's Consort.
Whether as a wife or a mother, she would not do this unless she had no choice.
Her eyes were clear and there was no sign of madness in her every move.
Ruan Han and Lady Ning'an were both fidgeting and looking panicked, obviously trying to hide something.
The temple secretary's heart unconsciously leaned towards Madam Ruan.
"Mrs. Ruan, please tell me the whole truth slowly. I will definitely give you justice."
"Thank you, sir."
Mrs. Ruan wiped her tears and was about to tell everything.
Then I heard a voice behind me, "Mom."
When Ruan Hezhu got the news, he hurried over.
"Si Cheng, Miss Ruan insisted on forcing her way in and threatening her life. We..."
Several officials followed behind her, explaining.
The temple minister understood their concerns. After all, no one wanted to offend the Crown Prince's wife.
The Dali Temple basically held trials in private, without allowing the public to watch. Ruan Hezhu was going to be beaten with a stick for barging in like that.
But the temple minister didn't want to offend her.
He smiled apologetically and said, "Miss Ruan, why don't you sit down and listen?"
Ning Yuan couldn't stand seeing him being so cowardly and afraid of this and that when trying a case.
I wanted to warn him out loud, but after thinking it over, I held back.
If he were not the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple and was not in the temple, it would not be his turn to try this case.
Ruan Hezhu ignored the temple secretary and walked straight to Madam Ruan.
He whispered, "Mom, let's go home."
"Why go back home? Since I'm here today, I won't go back until this is over."
Looking at her determined look, Ruan Hezhu's heart skipped a beat.
He couldn't help but tighten his grip on Mrs. Ruan's hand. "Mom, Dad and I have finally gotten to where we are today. Don't act on impulse. If you have anything to say, let's go home and talk. We will satisfy any request you have."
"When we get back, I'll have Dad sell all those concubines. From now on, you'll be the only one in the mansion."
"Yes, listen to He Zhu."
Ruan Han also quickly promised that as long as Mrs. Ruan could go back now, he would be willing to do anything.
Madam Ruan looked at Ruan Han, then at her daughter, "Do you think I still care about this?"
"You've come at the perfect time. You can't get away with this. The prefect and the Crown Prince's wife are so high and mighty. You stand so high and mighty. Have you ever considered that you are stepping on my daughter's life?"
Looking at Mrs. Ruan's crazy and cold expression, Ruan Hezhu felt a chill on his back and his whole body trembled uncontrollably.
"Mom, what nonsense are you talking about? I am your daughter, your only daughter. You have raised me since I was a child. Have you forgotten?"
She wanted to use the kindness she had shown her since childhood to regain Mrs. Ruan's sanity.
This scandal was concealed for a lifetime in the previous life, and it must never be exposed in this life.
She looked at Mrs. Ruan pleadingly, hoping that she would consider their long-standing mother-daughter relationship and stop talking.
Ruan Han had already fallen off the stool.
He thought his wife had just misunderstood his relationship with Lady Ning Anbo, but he never expected that she actually knew the secret.
No wonder she has been acting so abnormal lately, the more she knows about that incident.
He hated himself for not realizing it. If he had known earlier, he would have been ruthless enough to get rid of her.
Now, I am going to be ruined by her, really ruined.
He looked at Lady Ning An in despair.
Yu Sanniang was also extremely panicked at this moment. She looked at Ning Yuan, hoping that he could help her.
When Ning Yuan saw the performance of several people, he realized that Mrs. Ruan was not lying.
He lowered his eyes and rejected Yu Sanniang's request for help. He was the Shaoqing of Dali Temple and could not show favoritism. Besides, he also wanted to know the truth.
Look at how many things her mother has hidden from him.
Madam Ruan pushed Ruan Hezhu away and said hysterically, "You are not my daughter. You are their illegitimate child. They killed my newborn baby and took the blame for it."
"I carried my child for ten months and gave birth to him, but I never even saw him once. He was killed by them."
"And you, my daughter who I raised since childhood, clearly knew the truth, but for the sake of fame and fortune, you also deceived me."
