Chapter 229 The feeling of wanting to kill someone
Everyone waited quietly for Song Jiuyuan to say the next word, and Granny Chen's eyes began to moisten.
Mrs. Fu paused in her kowtow, and her blood-stained face was filled with pain.
Master Fu stared at Song Jiuyuan in horror, wishing he would make Song Jiuyuan disappear from the spot.
Song Jiuli discussed with Jiang Wan in a low voice: "Sister Wanwan, the Fu family is in trouble."
Her eldest brother was a man who hated evil, and the Fu family members were clearly looking for trouble by approaching him.
"I support your big brother this time."
Jiang Wan didn't say much, rubbing her fingertips together. If someone who knew her in her previous life was present, they would know that she was itching to do something.
Whenever this happens, she wants to stab someone!
Perhaps sensing Jiang Wan's complicated emotions, Song Jiuyuan suddenly turned his head to look over, and Jiang Wan's heart skipped a beat.
Fortunately, he quickly and naturally looked away, his voice cold:
"You two abducted a woman, tortured her to death, and wiped out the entire Chen family..."
He enumerated the crimes of Madam Fu and Master Fu one by one, and finally said in front of everyone's expectant eyes:
"Your crimes are so heinous that you deserve death. You should be torn into pieces by five horses, and all your family members should be demoted to slavery. In addition, all the property of the Fu family should be confiscated!"
Wow...
There was an uproar among the crowd. I don’t know who started clapping first, but others followed suit and cheered.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Grandma Chen knelt devoutly in front of Song Jiuyuan, tears streaming down her face.
Her shoulders were shaking as she cried. Jiang Wan winked at Qiu Niang, and she went forward to help Grandma Chen up.
The people outside began to change their tone, "The prince is the great ruler of heaven!"
"When I met the prince earlier, I felt that he was full of righteousness, and it turned out to be true."
"Stop using your literary skills here. I am a rough man and I don't know much else. I only know that those who do evil should be punished. Your Highness did a good job!"
“…”
Song Jiuyuan didn't care what others thought of him. He glanced at Jiang Wan out of the corner of his eye.
Noticing that she seemed to be in a good mood, he knew that he had done the right thing, so he waved his hand.
"Sun Zhubo, take your people to the Fu family and deposit all their property into the Qucheng treasury to support this snow disaster."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Sun Zhubo accepted the order loudly and led the officials to the Fu family in high spirits.
Mrs. Fu's eyes were dull at first, and then she fainted in the court.
Mr. Fu collapsed and yelled, "Let me go, let me go, my father is the county magistrate!"
Unfortunately, no matter how much he shouted, no one paid any attention to him, and both of them were dragged away.
The onlookers gradually dispersed, but the rumors that Mrs. Fu had spread were proven false.
The Fu family has become an existence hated by the people of Qucheng.
On the contrary, Song Jiuyuan became the object of praise among the people.
Qiu Niang helped Grandma Chen onto the carriage. Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan fell at the back. She looked up with a serious look in her eyes.
"Song Jiuyuan, if I remember correctly, you don't seem to have the right to confiscate my property?"
Although Song Jiuyuan did not say that it was a house search, it was no different from a house search.
If this news gets to Kyoto, I'm afraid the father and son won't be able to sit still again!
"I didn't say the word confiscation."
Song Jiuyuan raised his lips and smiled, "County Magistrate Fu has died suddenly. I will just treat this as a case of bullying the people."
Of course, how to present it is his business.
"Okay, just take it easy."
Jiang Wan felt that Song Jiuyuan began to let himself go after arriving in Jiuzhou, but if he was stronger, the person in Kyoto would be wary of him.
He would be able to become the local emperor of Jiuzhou, but the emperor was far away and that person could not control him.
"Don't worry, my wife. I know what's going on."
Song Jiuyuan's ordinary words made Jiang Wan blush.
She quickened her pace, climbed onto the carriage in a few steps, and quickly let go of the carriage curtain, not daring to look at Song Jiuyuan.
Song Jiuli looked over with a puzzled look on her face, "Sister Wanwan, what's wrong with you?"
"fine."
Jiang Wan was glad at this moment that she was wearing a veil, otherwise her hot face would not be hidden.
But Grandma Chen, as an experienced person, could see the subtle atmosphere between Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan at a glance.
Now that her revenge was achieved, she was no longer as nervous as before and even smiled briefly.
"Princess, the prince is a good man."
"Um."
Jiang Wan nodded with a smile, "Grandma, shall we take you home first?"
"Home?"
Granny Chen smiled bitterly and shook her head, "I have no home for a long time."
"So where do you live now?"
Song Jiuli kept asking questions, and when she saw Grandma Chen's sad eyes, she also felt uncomfortable.
Granny Chen burst into tears and said, "I live in the former Chen Mansion. Please send me to the entrance of Qingshui Street."
"good."
Jiang Wan gave Qiu Niang a look, and she quietly got out of the carriage and sat outside the carriage with Qingshan.
As the carriage rattled along, Granny Chen suddenly sighed:
"It's been six years. I remember the last time I took a carriage was six years ago when we went to the Fu Mansion to seek justice for our granddaughter."
"Grandma, if you want to tell us, please tell us."
Jiang Wan took Grandma Chen's wrinkled hand and stuffed the hot water bottle into her hand, her eyes full of heartache.
Song Jiuli on the side nodded hurriedly, "Yes, grandma, if you don't mind, we will listen patiently."
"There's nothing that can't be said."
Granny Chen patted the back of Jiang Wan's hand and said, "Back then, my granddaughter was as pretty as you.
She was the object of marriage proposal by countless men in Qucheng, and the threshold of our Chen Mansion was almost broken down by her. "
When she said this, Granny Chen had tears in her eyes, “But this girl is stupid.
She said that her younger brothers were still young and she wanted to stay at home and spend more time with us, but she ended up being spotted by that beast from the Fu family!
You all know what happened next. Mrs. Fu personally brought people to forcibly take my granddaughter away.
But within just one month, she was tortured to death by that beast. Her father and brothers went to Chen's house with evidence and were beaten out. "
Granny Chen wiped away her tears with shaking hands, "Her father is unwilling to accept this and plans to go to the capital to file a complaint."
"So Magistrate Fu set fire to your house?"
Song Jiuli gritted his teeth and was filled with righteous indignation. For a man like County Magistrate Fu, it was really too easy for him to die suddenly.
"Um."
Granny Chen said in a muffled voice, "I am old, sleep lightly, and like quietness, so I live far away from the main courtyard and luckily I survived.
If it weren't for them getting their comeuppance, I wouldn't have survived until now!"
"Grandma, do you have other relatives?"
Jiang Wan remembered that Mrs. Fu had mentioned before that Grandma Chen had other relatives and wanted to use this to threaten her.
Granny Chen said softly, "I have a daughter who married to a neighboring county a few years ago.
She came back to find me and tried to persuade me to let go of my hatred, but I couldn't do it.
There are more than 30 people in the Chen family. I will drag the Fu family into this even if it costs me my life!"
"Now that you have fulfilled your long-cherished wish, why don't we send you to your daughter?"
Song Jiuli always felt that Grandma Chen's life would be better with her daughter taking care of her.
