Chapter 1099 Severing the Father-Daughter Relationship
At this moment, Lu Xingwan secretly waved his hand, and the spiritual power that had been sealed for Lord Jiang and Lord Lin was instantly released.
Lord Jiang and Lord Lin, who had been unable to speak or move just now, suddenly felt much better.
The next moment, their legs seemed to have lost support and they fell heavily to the ground.
Lord Jiang now understood clearly in his heart that what the princess said was true.
My own daughter really did such a shameless thing.
Thinking of this, Lord Jiang's face was full of shame. He struggled to stand up, walked resolutely in front of the princess, knelt down on the ground again with a thud, and knocked his head heavily on the ground.
This kneeling contained his regret.
"Your Highness, I have been blessed by Your Majesty to be the Minister of Rites. I consider myself a person of etiquette and morality, but I never expected that my children would do something so unethical and immoral as to have an affair with the young master of the Lin family."
"I am truly ashamed. Even if Your Majesty punishes me today, I will accept it. However, my daughter..."
A glimmer of hope rose in Jiang Qingyin's heart. With tears in her eyes, she looked in the direction of her father.
She knew what kind of person her father was, and it was precisely because her father had been too strict with her for many years that she did such an unethical thing.
This gave her a sense of excitement amid her father's years of strict discipline.
Jiang Song said this and turned to look in Jiang Qingyin's direction. His eyes seemed to carry some reluctance, but also some determination: "I know that this matter has damaged the reputation and ethics of the court, so I hope that the princess will allow my daughter to shave her head and become a nun, and confess her sins in the green lamp and ancient Buddha."
"I will also rectify my family traditions to thank Your Majesty for your grace."
Lord Jiang's body was shaking violently.
Lu Xingwan saw a dark mark on the ground, and he didn't know whether it was Lord Jiang's sweat or tears.
After all, it is a fatherly heart.
Jiang Qingyin, who was standing by, didn't expect her father to do such a thing. She wanted to defend herself, but the eunuch covered her mouth tightly and she couldn't make a sound.
She could only let her tears fall continuously.
Now her gorgeous clothes were wrinkled beyond recognition.
But how could she care about all this?
Her heart was filled with despair. She had thought her father would plead for her, but she had never expected that her father would be so cold-hearted.
At this moment, she no longer wanted the Duke of Anguo, and she didn't care about being with Lin Yuanzhi under the moonlight.
To her at that moment, these things were nothing more than dreams.
At this moment, everything will come to nothing.
Is it possible that she really has to stay in that temple, accompanying the ancient Buddha with green lamps for the rest of her life?
Lu Xingwan stood there, her expression quite calm. Her eyes fell on Lord Jiang's body, and she couldn't help but feel emotional.
Just now she thought that Lord Jiang was the kind of official who did his job perfunctorily, but she didn't expect that in public, facing such a heinous thing as his daughter, he would not evade or defend her.
This is actually enough.
Compared with Lord Lin who was still trembling aside, he was indeed more magnanimous and responsible.
Lu Xingwan sighed slightly, not knowing whether she was having a hard time making a decision or just felt sorry for Jiang Qingyin.
But she didn't want to ruin Jiang Qingyin's life.
In her eyes, since Lin Yuanzhi and Jiang Qingyin, this pair of dogs and bitches, are willing to stay together, then just let them waste their lives together in the inner house.
In short, no matter what, don't come out and harm others.
Lu Xingwan looked at Jiang Song's head and said, "Master Jiang, this matter is not the end of the world."
"I just hope that since Mr. Lin and Miss Jiang are in love with each other, they will not delay others any longer."
"Since they are in love, there is really no need to send Miss Jiang to Buddhism. Instead of forcibly separating them, it is better to follow the will of heaven and make it a good thing for both of them."
What Lu Xingwan said was true. As long as the two of them could get married, the storm would be settled.
Not to mention whether Jiang Qingyin would do something stupid after marriage.
From the current perspective, she looks down on the Lin family.
I'm afraid that if I marry into the Lin family's backyard, I'll inevitably have to quarrel with Lin Yuanzhi. In the future, the Lin family's backyard will be bustling.
But Jiang Song didn't think so.
He looked up at Lu Xingwan, his eyes full of determination.
At this moment, he would rather Jiang Qingyin was a stranger who had nothing to do with him.
He couldn't imagine that his daughter, whom he had once cherished and raised with great care, would become like this.
It was as if the flower that I had carefully cultivated for many years suddenly turned into a weed.
When his daughter was born, he was already working in the Ministry of Rites, which could be said to be a very powerful official.
So he actually put a lot of effort into this daughter.
But he didn't expect that his daughter would do something that would damage the family's reputation.
He turned his head again and looked at Jiang Qingyin, who was crying with tears in her eyes. Her eyes were full of pleading, as if she wanted to impress her father with her tears.
But Jiang Song had already made up his mind. He resolutely bowed to Lu Xingwan again and said, "In this case, I ask Princess Yong'an to allow me to sever my father-daughter relationship with Jiang Qingyin."
"I feel I have lost face in front of my ancestors. Since I cannot lead her back to the right path, I ask the princess to allow me to save the last bit of my family's dignity."
Just now, Lu Xingwan was still wondering whether Jiang Song wanted him to give him a step down.
She also walked over to the stairs, but she didn't expect Jiang Song to be so decisive.
It was I who misunderstood Jiang Song.
Seeing how determined he was, Lu Xingwan began to hesitate.
She could also understand Jiang Song's desire to maintain his family's reputation.
If he had a daughter like Jiang Qingyin, he would probably want to throw her out.
But looking at Jiang Qingyin's tearful eyes, she felt a little reluctant.
If this woman breaks away from her family, she will be in trouble in her husband's family in the future...
Although it seems that Lin Yuanzhi has deep feelings for Jiang Qingyin now, what about the future?
As beauty fades, love fades.
If Jiang Qingyin lost her mask in the future, what would Lin Yuanzhi do?
As if he had sensed the knot in Lu Xingwan's heart, Pei Chuyan quickly stepped forward, stood beside Lu Xingwan, and looked at Lord Jiang with a burning gaze: "Lord Jiang, there is no need to use this matter to hold the princess accountable. This is your family affair and should be resolved by you and your daughter. Why do you have to involve Her Highness the Princess in it?"
When Jiang Song heard Pei Chuyan's big hat, he was so scared that his face turned pale. He continued to touch his forehead to the ground and said in fear and trepidation: "Princess, please forgive me. I have no such intention. I was just anxious for a moment and lost my mind. I hope Your Highness will forgive me."
"If Your Highness Princess has no other instructions, I will take my leave now."
