“Brother-in-law, I am…” Zhao Zhangwen seemed to be about to say something, but Lin Zhengshan shouted, “Zhao Zhangwen, just plead guilty and sign the confession. For your sister’s sake, I will take good care of Hongwei for you.”
Zhao Zhangwen knew that this time, even his brother-in-law couldn't protect him. If he didn't drag Lin Zhengshan into it, his son would still have his sister to take care of him.
Zhao Zhangwen lowered his head and resignedly signed the confession.
His home was confiscated, he was flogged thirty times, and exiled to the harsh and cold land of Beiningta. His concubines were allowed to return home on their own.
Amidst the cries of the common people kneeling and shouting "Your Honor, the Upright Official!", the Zhao family of Yanyang was completely wiped out.
"No, no, impossible, impossible..." Madam Zhao's eyes widened, and she kept repeating "impossible."
She just wanted to avenge her son, how did it end up ruining the Zhao family?
Madam Zhao turned around and glared at Su Ruojin, pointing at her and shouting, "Su Ruojin, you're a witch! You're a witch!"
If Su Ruojin weren't a vixen, how would she know such a secret about the Zhao family?
Madam Zhao regretted it. Why did she have to get involved with this vixen?
The first time, Madam Zhao wanted to give her son a good beating. If it weren't for the trouble he caused, the Zhao family wouldn't be where it is today.
Madam Zhao never imagined that her misfortune was not over yet.
To kill someone, you must first destroy their spirit.
Su Ruojin understood the underlying principle; she never felt any pity for those who bullied her.
Among the information sent by the Dark Alliance was a revelation that she hadn't included in the complaint.
She completely ignored Madam Zhao's curses, slowly got up and walked to Zhao Zhangwen, who was already stunned, and whispered a sentence.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhangwen's face turned from white to green, and he abruptly turned to look at Madam Zhao.
When Madam Zhao saw the vicious look in her husband's eyes, she couldn't help but shiver: "Master... what's wrong with you?"
Zhao Zhangwen stood up, rushed forward, and kicked Madam Zhao hard in the chest.
Caught off guard, Madam Zhao was kicked away and spat out a mouthful of blood.
She looked at Zhao Zhangwen in disbelief: "Zhao... cough cough, Zhao Zhangwen, are you crazy?"
"Sun Liniang, you bitch! I'm going to kill you!" Zhao Zhangwen tried to kick her again, but was pulled back by the yamen runners.
"I'm going to kill you! I'm going to kill you!" Zhao Zhangwen was unable to move, his eyes were red, and he was still cursing.
Looking at Zhao Zhangwen like this, Madam Zhao seemed to realize something, a trace of fear flashed in her eyes, she wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and lowered her head.
Zhao Zhangwen was taken away, and Su Ruojin bowed to Lord Zhong and took her leave.
Zhihua, who had been anxiously waiting outside, rushed over and draped a cloak over her shoulders.
"Miss, thank goodness, everything is alright now."
Although the young lady had said that everything was fine before, Ke Zhihua's heart was still pounding with anxiety until now.
"By the way, Miss, what did you say to Zhao Zhangwen?" Zhihua asked curiously.
Even when Zhao Zhangwen was sentenced to exile, he wasn't this agitated. How come he went crazy after the young lady said a few words to him?
Su Ruojin smiled slightly: "Zhao Zhangwen has married so many concubines, but he only has one son, Zhao Hongwei, because he is infertile. Zhao Hongwei is the child of Sun Liniang and her cousin. I just told him the truth."
How could a man accept being cuckolded like this?
Zhao Zhangwen had always doted on Zhao Hongwei as if he were his own son. Now he learned that Zhao Hongwei was not his biological son, and that the Zhao family had been destroyed because of this child.
How could he possibly tolerate it?
Zhihua still didn't understand: "Miss, how could he believe you so easily?"
