Ni Yueshan did not inherit any memories, so naturally she had no idea who the woman who came here was.
There was a look of joy on Yang Wanyan's face. So, even if this person was a member of the Prime Minister's Mansion, how could he be bad to her, Ni Yueshan?
"Greetings, Your Excellency, I am Concubine Tian from the Prime Minister's Mansion. I heard that Yue Shan had gone to the Dali Temple to make trouble, so I came to investigate."
Tian You looks to be a little over thirty years old. Her skin is well maintained and her long hair is shiny black, which makes her skin look even whiter than snow. Her graceful temperament is somewhat dazzling.
"Mrs. Tian from the Xiangfu? Please take a seat!"
Kang Xueyi knew clearly that this second wife of the prime minister was the concubine daughter of the Minister of Justice. Her status was not very noble, but she was favored by the prime minister and had decisive means, so she was considered a famous woman in the capital.
"My Lord, I dare not sit in the court. I came here today to seek reconciliation!"
"Reconciliation?" Kang Xueyi was confused.
Ni Yueshan also frowned.
"Since the General's Mansion has divorced Yue Shan, she is now a member of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Therefore, I, a common woman, still have a say in the people of the Prime Minister's Mansion!"
As she spoke, her bright eyes turned towards Ni Yueshan. She smiled gracefully and said earnestly, "Yueshan, even if you were divorced and brought disgrace upon the Prime Minister's Mansion, you can't use these two maids to sue Concubine Yang of the General's Mansion, right?"
She stepped forward, took Ni Yueshan's hand, and smiled warmly: "Second Mother advises you to go back with her."
Ni Yueshan looked at the beautiful woman in front of him with cold eyes, "In your eyes, those two dead people were just maids, but in my eyes, they died because of me. I cannot help but seek justice for them. If you are here to persuade me to stop, then please go back!"
Although I don’t know what the relationship between this person and the original owner is, it is impossible for her to let go!
"Yueshan, as an abandoned woman, don't you know what you did wrong? Don't you think it's shameful enough? Listen to Second Mother and go back with her immediately, otherwise the Prime Minister's Mansion will treat you as if you don't have a daughter!"
From the moment she came in until now, he hasn't said a word of concern to her. He's always been asking her to give up and keep things quiet. Now he's threatening her?
A concubine, as a maid, has the power to arbitrarily interfere in the affairs of the legitimate daughter. Isn't this woman simple?
Ni Yueshan pushed Tian You away and said, "As a concubine, I have no right to speak on my behalf in court. You'd better leave now. Otherwise, if I forget my duty and go beyond the lineage of the direct lineage, you will also bring shame to the Prime Minister's Mansion!"
There is no need to be polite when speaking to people who are of no use to her.
Tian You did not expect Ni Yueshan to be so disrespectful to her. She had never been so embarrassed before. She glared at Ni Yueshan for a while and was so angry that she couldn't speak.
Ni Yueshan said to Kang Xueyi solemnly, "Sir, the evidence is there, and Concubine Yang is unable to clear herself of suspicion. I implore you to detain her!"
Kang Xueyi looked at Tian You awkwardly. Perhaps Tian You came here to represent the Prime Minister's intention?
"Miss Ni, your second mother's words make sense. Why would you offend the general's mansion for the sake of two maids?"
"Master Temple Minister, now that we have solid evidence, please convict me!"
Ni Yueshan's attitude was extremely firm. No matter who came or what they advised, she could not let Zuo Ying and Liu Yue die in vain!
Yang Wanyan thought she would be saved, but Ni Yueshan continued to press on. Her eyes were red, and she held her forehead with her hands, looking dizzy. "I feel dizzy. If the general knew that Miss Ni was so unrepentant, he would definitely be heartbroken..."
As he was about to faint, Hongrou hurried to support him.
Ni Yueshan frowned and reiterated in a cold voice, "Master Temple Minister, why didn't you order the arrest? Are you afraid of a concubine in the Prime Minister's Mansion?"
Ni Yueshan's words were so sharp from beginning to end that Kang Xueyi felt ashamed. He coughed and said, "Miss Ni, think carefully. If Concubine Yang is imprisoned, your relationship with the Prime Minister's Mansion will be at a standstill!"
"A daughter who is married off is like spilled water. The Prime Minister's Mansion has long belonged to me only as my mother's family! Lord Temple Minister, please enforce the law impartially and imprison Concubine Yang!"
Faced with Ni Yueshan's unwavering determination, Kang Xueyi was helpless. "Come here, arrest this Yang concubine who is suspected of murder!"
Yang Wanyan's bleak face turned even paler, "Sir, I am innocent. I have never hurt anyone..."
Hong Rou, standing by, also pleaded, "Sir, Aunt Yang is indeed wronged. This is all just Miss Ni's one-sided account!"
"Don't cry, if Miss Ni can't find any witnesses to incriminate Concubine Yang, I will release her and take her away!"
An officer came forward and dragged Yang Wanyan away. Yang Wanyan's face was filled with sorrow as she said to Hong Rou, "Go back and tell the general not to worry about me!"
Afterwards, Yang Wanyan was dragged out of everyone's sight. When Yang Wanyan's figure disappeared, she put away her delicate look and raised a smile. She believed that the more pitifully she was bullied now, the worse Ni Yueshan's fate would be when Zou Yangyao found out!
After Yang Wanyan was taken away, Ni Yueshan felt that the world had become much quieter. She looked at the driver who was kneeling on the ground and said, "Yang Yi Niang has been imprisoned. Are you still crying out for injustice?"
"Slave, I am indeed wronged!"
Ni Yueshan laughed loudly. Is it really unfair?
She narrowed her eyes, "You are really excellent!"
Afterwards, Ni Yueshan looked at Kang Xueyi with a firm gaze: "Sir, I believe the results of the autopsy by the coroner will show that Zuo Ying did have a broken tooth and there was fluid left on her body from a man."
As he spoke, Ni Yueshan looked at the driver kneeling on the ground with hatred: "He never left my sight from beginning to end, so naturally there is no way for him to clean himself. Lord Temple Minister, please drag him to the back hall and have someone check to see if there is any Mai Te blood or other disgusting liquid on his body!"
Ni Yueshan was a woman, yet she said such words in court. Tian You, who was standing by, was so embarrassed for Ni Yueshan that she wanted to crawl into the ground.
Kang Xueyi was also a little embarrassed: "Come here, drag this boy to the back hall."
The driver originally thought Zuo Ying was dead. He denied everything, and since no one else was present at the time, he naturally couldn't be convicted. But he didn't expect that Ni Yueshan, a woman who had never been favored by Zou Yangyao, actually knew all this...
"Yueshan, you have really brought shame to the Prime Minister's Mansion!" Tian You said this and left angrily with his people.
Ni Yueshan just glanced at Tian You coldly, then returned her gaze to Kang Xueyi: "Thank you, Lord Temple Minister, for not being afraid of the General's Mansion and upholding justice for me!"
Kang Xueyi felt a little regretful, thinking that the quarrel between a rich girl and an abandoned woman could be over, but he didn't expect Ni Yueshan to be so determined. It would be difficult to take advantage of her!
In the back hall, the rickshaw driver was examined and the results were consistent with what Ni Yueshan said, so he was also taken into custody.
Kang Xueyi thought that the two people Ni Yueshan had sued had been brought to justice, and the matter had come to an end. He had just breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Ni Yueshan bow deeply before leaving:
"I will wait until the general leaves the palace, then come and sue General Zou for hiring thugs to bully me!"
After saying that, Ni Yueshan turned around gracefully, while Kang Xueyi's eyelids twitched.
Ni Yueshan left the Dali Temple and boarded a carriage parked nearby. He then drove the carriage in one direction...
