Chapter 544 You Must Be Lying to Me
....
At 8 o'clock local time in Brandenburg, the Brandenburg High Court held the first pre-verdict trial on the case of Sheng Hui and Wen Meiling for hiring a killer, corruption and treason.
In view of the seriousness of the case and the large number of people involved, the court held the final trial before the second-instance verdict one month later.
All the collateral members of the Sheng family appeared in court to respond to the lawsuit, and the court was packed.
This was a major event that Jiang Zhiyue had been concerned about. From the moment she and Sheng Huaian got out of the car, they were surrounded by media reporters, with flashes of light flashing one after another.
Jiang Zhiyue's accusation pointed out that Wen Meiling condoned the murder of Jiang Wanrou, set fire to and massacred civilians, killed loyal officials, poisoned and murdered Mr. Sheng Hui, and was suspected of illegally operating an organ factory. His crimes are too numerous to list.
She hopes that the punishment will be increased in the second instance and that the death penalty will be imposed as a punishment.
As for the side branches of the Sheng family who abused their power, accepted bribes and engaged in corruption, it is recommended that they be sentenced to life imprisonment and fined up to 100 billion yuan in the second instance.
Jiang Zhiyue showed no mercy at all. Her face was bright and beautiful in front of the camera, and the evidence she presented was well-founded. Faced with such ironclad evidence, Mrs. Sheng was unable to refute it.
After the verdict was announced in court, the side branches of the Sheng family were furious and shouted, "Sheng Huaian, we are all your relatives! You just let this little girl kill us all! You won't leave us any chance to survive!?"
"Who allowed you to deal with the old man's inheritance without permission? This is going to wipe out the Sheng family! Sheng Huaian, we are blood relatives! You actually want us to stay in jail for life!"
The Sheng family was completely ruined, and except for the eldest branch, the entire family was wiped out.
All the profits gained over the years have become the wedding clothes of others. The fine amount is as high as hundreds of billions. Even if there are younger generations who have not participated in these things, they are destined to be penniless from now on.
The nobles who were high and mighty, without their protection, fell from the clouds and fell into the quagmire.
This was a drama that the people of Brandenburg loved to watch, and Sheng Huaian's sacrifice of his own relatives for the sake of justice also received unanimous praise.
Sheng Hui was neatly dressed in the dock, but he could no longer remain calm when the words "capital punishment" rang in his ears. He shouted in anger, "Jiang Zhiyue hasn't even changed her last name until today. What qualifications does she have to report us on behalf of the Sheng family?!"
"The surname is nothing more than a nickname. I don't care. Why do you insist on it, Uncle?" Sheng Huaian said coldly, "The Sheng family is in turmoil. Zhiyue and I have worked together to protect it. The people have seen everything she has done. Whether she is qualified to represent the Sheng family is not something that a criminal like you can decide."
"It is because of Zhiyue that the Sheng family has been able to continue."
"Zhiyue represents the Sheng family and me."
The girl had been sitting next to Sheng Huaian, and the camera seemed to want to capture them as if they were dependent on each other. Jiang Zhiyue's bright eyes did not reveal the slightest sign of timidity.
Going to court with clan members, eliminating all the collateral relatives, and retaining only the eldest branch of the family, isn't this a new starting point for rebirth for the Sheng family?
Who has the courage and patience to collect evidence, not fear the world's criticism, take personal responsibility, and bring the evil branch of the Sheng family to justice?
It’s Jiang Zhiyue.
Sheng Huaian will inherit three states in the future. If he carries the stigma of abandoning his family, he will inevitably be criticized and his reputation will be damaged.
Jiang Zhiyue is a comrade-in-arms, a military advisor, and a companion to Sheng Huaian who is not like a family member but is warmer and more reliable than a family member.
She pushed him forward, letting him stand in his rightful place and take back everything that belonged to them.
Old Mrs. Sheng was abnormally silent. She was the only one who knew who she had lost to. The prison guards were escorting her. Old Mrs. Sheng's body was covered with stains. No one knew who had thrown the rotten eggs at her maliciously.
All the pampered life in the past turned into a miserable state.
Old Madam Sheng endured the stinking filth and stabbed Jiang Zhiyue with her cloudy eyes like thorns. "You won, so what? Do you think I will repent?"
She was despised by the people, had eggs thrown at her, and was spat on. Both her children were killed. So what?
Old Madam Sheng would not give in. How could she bow her head and admit defeat to a teenage girl? She regretted not discovering Jiang Zhiyue earlier and getting rid of her early, so that there would not be so many troubles in the future.
"Jiang Wanrou's greatest luck in life is having a good daughter like you."
Jiang Zhiyue smiled when she heard this, "Because my mother is kind and upright, I am lucky to be her daughter. It's a pity that people like you will never understand this truth."
She didn’t expect Old Lady Sheng to repent, so she opened the document on the table and took it in her hand, “You longed to control the Sheng family and establish your own country, and you have endured for more than 30 years for this.”
"You were only one step away from success but failed. It must be very uncomfortable, right? In fact, you just need to wait a little longer and save your grandfather's life. His will is to hand over the Sheng family to you, including the military order code that you have been coveting for a long time."
"You all think that grandpa is reluctant to hand over power and reveal the military order code because it is his life-saving talisman. You are wrong. He truly regards you as his wife and Sheng Hui as his heir with high hopes. He intends to hand all these over to you personally."
"You just need to be patient for a moment longer, and you will get what you want."
Jiang Zhiyue was holding a will in her hand, on which Grandpa Sheng's name was clearly written. Grandma Sheng's face changed instantly, and her eyes were fixed on the black handwriting on the document.
"This, this is impossible! You must be lying to me!" she shouted with a trembling voice.
Some people will never repent throughout their entire lives, but at the end of their lives, they will regret what they have done and even die with their eyes open.
For more than 30 years, Mrs. Sheng has been a nominal lady who is not worthy of being in public. Only she knows in her heart that she has never gained the status and respect she deserves.
In the first half of his life, he had to kowtow and deal with the ladies of upper society and the side branches of the Sheng family.
In the second half of his life, he planned for the future of himself and his children, and experienced countless days and nights of intrigue.
As a result, Jiang Zhiyue told her that these opportunities that were within her reach were actually destroyed by her own hands.
She didn't believe it! She would rather it was a scam!
"You and my grandfather have been married for many years, so you must be very familiar with his handwriting. Believe it or not." Jiang Zhiyue closed the document, turned around, and a sneer rose at the corner of her lips, which then disappeared in an instant.
Sheng Huaian looked coldly at the arrested old lady Sheng. Her face was pale and she shouted at the top of her lungs: "Judge! I don't accept it! This verdict is wrong! It's mine, everything should have been mine!"
"What have I achieved in the past thirty years of hard work? Why do you treat me like this?!"
"I had no idea when grandpa made his will?" Sheng Huaian turned to Jiang Zhiyue and asked.
