Chapter 93 The pervert wants to survive this
In the Wenhua Palace, the emperor listened to the two pieces of news that were sent into the palace one after another, his brows raised.
He had already expected that the woman from the Lu family would not give up, but he did not expect her to act so quickly.
He hasn't figured out how to deal with Zhao Jingtian and his eldest son who is in conflict with him.
However, Yun’s dowry also included financial gifts that the Yun family had given for more than ten years!
Even though he seldom left the palace, he knew how big the Yun family's business was back then.
The secrets of the past were uncovered again. He could not care about the emotional entanglements involved, but he could not give up the money.
No matter who was behind Zhao's advice, this move touched his heart.
The national treasury was short of money and the disaster in the south was still ongoing. This sum of money came at the right time.
It took him only a quarter of an hour from hearing the news to making the decision. He waved and called someone over, asking them to take the imperial edict to Shuntian Prefecture.
It was when the police came to his house that Zhao Jingtian found out that his stupid daughter, whom he had never taken seriously, had actually gone to Shuntian Prefecture to sue him.
She wanted justice, but she didn't mention their murder for money. She just wanted them to return Yun's dowry.
Yun's dowry was brought into the mansion's inner treasury on the second day after she entered the mansion. All the expenses of the mansion in recent years came from this.
He didn't even know whether the mansion could raise enough money to return the money, not to mention how the people in the Bo's mansion would survive after handing over the money.
"Uncle, please come with me. The master is waiting for you."
Zhao Jingtian took a deep breath. He was now like a tiger in a desperate situation being bullied by a dog!
Once he passes this hurdle, he will not let go of either Zhao Yumeng or his two daughters.
He glanced at the servant beside him, and the servant immediately understood what he meant and took out a purse from his pocket and handed it to the officer.
The officer weighed the purse and immediately smiled with satisfaction. He spoke without waiting for Zhao Jingtian to ask more questions.
"Before I left, I heard the eldest lady of the Lu Mansion say that she didn't take a penny of her mother's dowry and the property that the Yun family sent to the Bo Mansion over the years, and donated it all to the court for disaster relief."
"What!"
Zhao Jingtian, who was originally planning how to turn the tables, lost his composure upon hearing this, and waves of shock surged in his heart.
Who gave this idea to that idiot Zhao Yumeng!
This is clearly an attempt to force the Bo family into a desperate situation!
He clenched his fists tightly with his hands behind his back, and after a while, he followed the officer's signal and walked towards Shuntian Mansion with light steps.
Zhao had already stood up and was standing at one side of the hall, waiting for Zhao Jingtian to arrive.
While waiting, she recalled everything that had happened to her over the years.
But the more I think about it, the more stupid I feel. I ignored the sarcasm and disgust in Zhao Jingtian and Tao's eyes countless times and lived in my own world.
Her heart felt like it was torn apart, and every breath she took was filled with burning pain.
"Here he comes, here he comes, Master Zhao is here."
"Look at his face, it's as black as the bottom of a pot. He probably didn't expect his own daughter to come to the government to sue for her mother's dowry."
"But then again, there is nothing wrong with what they did. It is not shameful for the Rong En Marquis's mansion to seize a woman's dowry."
"How can it be embarrassing? If Master Zhao felt it was embarrassing, he would have returned his wife's dowry long ago."
"Hahaha, that's right, an uncle can be so shameless."
There was laughter from the crowd, and Zhao Jingtian heard these words as soon as he walked in.
The past events that he least wanted to recall were suddenly brought up again and again in the past few days, making him feel very angry.
If he hadn't been concerned about Song Junyan's status as a prince when he entered the court, he would have wanted to go up and slap Zhao a few times.
"Lord Rong'en, Zhao is suing you for appropriating her biological mother Yun's dowry. Do you have any objection?"
"Sir, I have never done this. It was Yun who took the initiative to mention handing over the dowry to the mansion for public use."
[Bah, so shameless, I knew he would say that! Where is the evidence, is there a written document from Yun? ]
In the court, Song Junyan pursed his lips and asked Lu Xinran what he was thinking.
Zhao Jingtian's body stiffened slightly. He wanted to say that there was written evidence in the mansion, but when he thought of Lu Xinran's uncanny ability, he knew that if he lied, the other party would immediately expose it, so he could only grit his teeth and say it.
"No, Yun has deep feelings for me, and she also knows that the Bo family is in trouble. She is generous and righteous, and she took the initiative to mention that she would leave her dowry in the public house. This matter is known to the elderly servants in the family."
[Don't be shameless. When the bride was serving tea, Qi humiliated her in front of the Zhao family and forced her to leave her dowry in the palace. What do you mean by deep love and loyalty? You look like a toad. Yun Shi is disgusted by you. You still say you are deep love and loyalty. You are really flattering yourself.]
In the court, Zhao breathed a sigh of relief.
She no longer complained about her own daughter's rough character.
If being rude doesn't result in being humiliated, and if scolding people doesn't result in being repeated, then she can learn from her.
Song Junyan looked at Zhao Jingtian. Although he had already learned the truth from Lu Xinran's voice, he had to say it.
"Someone, go to Lord Rong'en's mansion and bring the person who knew the truth back then to the hall."
"yes."
An official left in a hurry. When Zhao heard that he was going to the Bo's house to find witnesses, she couldn't help but feel anxious.
[What kind of evidence is that? The old nanny beside Zhou is the evidence. She saw all the grievances that Yun suffered back then. Calling her to confront him can at least make Zhao Jingtian's testimony ineffective.]
The voice from Zhao's heart was like a sweet rain that instantly fell on her heart, and she quickly bowed and said something.
"Sir, there is also a witness in my mansion. It is my mother's former wet nurse. She has always been by my mother's side and knows everything that happened to her in the mansion."
Song Junyan nodded expressionlessly and asked the servant to bring the person over.
Zhao Jingtian knew the old nanny. Originally, after Yun passed away, he wanted to find an opportunity to kill the wet nurse.
But the other party's indenture was not in his hands, so Yunhua went to the mansion and took the person back openly.
He hid the man again. He sent people to look for him several times but could not find his whereabouts, so he let the matter go.
But no one expected Yunhua to be so bold as to put the man next to Zhao after she got married.
Knowing that the other party is well prepared and has the evil helper Lu Xinran, it must be extremely difficult for him to deal with today.
But as long as he insisted that the dowry and finances were taken into the family by the Yun family, he could keep the wealth of the mansion even if he lost his reputation.
He glanced at Zhao with a sinister and vicious look, then turned around and looked at Lu Xinran.
When he gets through this...
At this moment, Lu Xinran had the illusion that she was being stared at by a poisonous snake, and she shrank back behind Lu Xinlan.
[You pervert, you still want to survive this! Pah, I will let you down if the grass on your grave is not one meter tall by this time next year.]
