Chapter 857: Dog bites dog, nothing more than this
The search and seizure of the Sang family was placed last, which was the result of tacit consent from many parties.
Because the imperial edicts issued in the past few days were so numerous and varied, even Mr. Xue, who wrote the imperial edicts, had said several times behind people's backs that he was lenient, and the palace gates were open and closed for a long time.
Such a lively and grand scene cannot reveal the Sang family's poverty.
But today, there are many more cases of embarrassment out of nowhere.
Chen Yun grabbed the family tree that Sang Yanyou was holding, glanced at it, and said seriously, "According to the laws of our dynasty, once someone leaves the family tree, they are no longer considered within the three generations. It's like being out of the fifth degree of mourning and not considered a clan relative."
"If you want to shamelessly claim kinship, you should first check if you are qualified. She is a First-Rank Protector of the Nation Consort, an honor bestowed by the Emperor. Her rank is above all other imperial decrees. You are not qualified to open your mouth and bite, and this place is not worthy of the Protector of the Nation Consort to come and see it in person."
Chen Yun calmly bumped Sang Yanyou's arm and said casually, "You come from the Sang family of Lingnan Wangcheng. Why are you reading this?"
The Sang family of Wangcheng formed a separate branch.
This lineage was started by Sang Zhixia and Sang Yanyou, and has nothing to do with anyone else.
Sang Yanyou shrugged and smiled in agreement. Xu Mingyang folded his arms and walked forward a few steps, clicking his tongue and saying, "Why are you still nagging at these people?"
"Get started!"
"We are here today on orders from the emperor. Why are you being polite?"
There are only two options open to the Sang family: either submit to having their property ransacked and every last penny taken from them.
Or they would be dragged to the market and beheaded.
No one wants to die.
Even if you know that the days ahead will be worse than death, it is still better to be alive than to die.
Therefore, in the deathly silence, all the property that was attempted to be hidden was found at once, and all those who resisted were captured.
Those who died because of resistance were thrown in front of the crowd, their wide-open eyes seemed to say that they would die with their eyes open, but no one cared.
Amidst the suffocating despair, Chen Yun toyed with a glass cup between his fingers and said, half-smilingly, to a man beside him, who had been forced to strip off his finery and whose face was filled with resentment, "Actually, the Emperor initially didn't intend to settle accounts with Madam Protector of the Nation because of her past achievements. Do you know why he suddenly changed his mind?"
Sang Yanyou's second uncle stared at Chen Yun fiercely: "Why?"
"Why is it so..."
"Because we found out something that the Imperial Concubine had done."
Chen Yun slowly placed the glass cup in front of Sang Bingrou and said softly, "According to investigation, the Imperial Concubine has a sinister heart. She even suggested poisoning the banquet hosted by Emperor Yongshun, and that the poisoned wine be sent to the current emperor."
"This proposal has the full support of the Imperial Concubine's maternal family. Even Madam Sang's maternal family is involved and can be said to be providing strong support."
Poisoning the current emperor is a serious crime that will result in the confiscation of property and extermination of the entire clan no matter what year it is.
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the uninformed crowd changed. Sang Bingrou, who was at the center of everyone's gaze, forced out a cold laugh with a ferocious expression: "So what?"
“It’s me…”
"You damned little bitch!"
The second master of the Sang family climbed up using his hands and feet and gave Sang Bingrou a hard slap in the face. After that, he still didn't feel satisfied, so he kicked her out again.
"It's all your fault!"
"If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be here at all!"
"I suggested it, what's wrong?!"
Sang Bingrou curled up on the ground and coughed up a mouthful of blood. She grinned and gritted her teeth, "I just can't stand seeing that bitch living better than me!"
"I am the legitimate daughter of the Sang family! If she hadn't seduced Xu Yu, I would have been the one to marry into the Jiaxing Marquisate! She took away everything that originally belonged to me. Why does she still act so high and mighty?!"
"How dare you say that..."
"ah!"
Someone rushed out from nowhere and grabbed Sang Bingrou again and slapped her several times. The people around watched coldly, and Chen Yun's eyes revealed ridicule.
Chen Yun raised his voice and said, "Thanks to the Imperial Concubine, your fate today is not unjust."
"If it weren't for Madam Protector of the Nation's request, all nine of your clans would have been implicated. Think more about the grace of your nine clans being spared, and remember to control your mouth and don't speak nonsense, otherwise..."
"Madam is kind-hearted and compassionate, but others may not be."
After throwing out the last harsh words, Chen Yun and Xu Mingyang grabbed Sang Yanyou from the left and right and were about to leave.
Before leaving, Xu Mingyang glanced back, unable to bear it any longer. He walked over to the mad Sang Bingrou and said disgustedly, "Also, don't get involved with my elder brother. You're not worthy."
"My eldest brother proposed to marry my eldest sister-in-law, and the one who will grow old with my eldest brother is also my eldest sister-in-law. If I hear you humiliate them again from anyone, don't blame me for being rude to you!"
The few people who came to support and follow the search walked out of the Sang family where wailing was everywhere. Before leaving, Sang Yanyou saw his scumbag father being carried out.
After this stimulation, the scumbag father seemed to be even more paralyzed.
Sang Yanyou left without looking back. Xu Mingyang was still a little angry when he thought of Sang Bingrou's crazy words.
"Are we just leaving like this?"
"That crazy woman is full of dirty talk, but I still think we should..."
"Do you think I left her a glass cup for nothing?"
Chen Yun rolled his eyes at Xu Mingyang and said casually, "That's the glass cup that passed through Aunt Yanran's hands."
Xu Mingyang: “…”
After a brief silence, Xu Mingyang caught up with him and said in disbelief, "When did this happen? How come I didn't know about it?"
"Why are you and Yanran carrying me on your back..."
"What do you mean by carrying you on your back?"
Chen Yun said innocently, "I only found out about this before I came here, okay?"
Since entering Kyoto, Xu Yanran has been focused on not caring about external affairs. Even after being named a county lady, she just studies her medical books at home all day long and does not see anyone except her family.
Chen Yun just got that glass cup this morning.
Chen Yun said, "Aunt Yanran said that thing is poisonous if it comes into contact with blood. The poison will take effect within an hour, and the first reaction after the onset is that the person will become mute."
"If anyone among us comes here and can't produce ivory, let me use that to shut them up forever."
Sang Bingrou was completely unprepared for this. She was even knocked out by someone and fell on the glass cup. The fragments pierced her body and more than three-quarters of the poison entered her body.
That stinky mouth that couldn't speak any human words could no longer utter a word after an hour.
Xu Mingyang took a breath and whispered, "Will that poison work on others?"
“It doesn’t work that well.”
Chen Yun spread his hands and said, "To trigger the poison, you need a primer. The primer is in my sleeve. When I bent down to place the glass cup, that crazy woman was the only one who inhaled it. That's why she was the only one who became mute first and then suffered from pain."
"As for the others..."
Chen Yun chuckled indifferently: "Aunt Yanran said that there are many good things to poison and kill. As long as there is someone who is eager to die, we can deliver it to their door at any time. Why rush?"
And looking at the situation today, no one needs to take action at all.
The same people in this once wealthy family can drive each other crazy.
This is nothing more than dog biting dog.
