Chapter 338 Madam Shen, I know I was wrong
Feng Yinyin's resentment was too deep, and she burst out with amazing strength. Su Yang failed to dodge and was suppressed. There were many bloody marks on his face and neck. If Chunxi had not asked someone to pull Feng Yinyin away in time, Su Yang's ear would have been bitten off.
Blood gushed out from his neck, and Su Yang screamed like a pig being slaughtered. Most of his clothes were torn open, revealing a small scar on his left chest.
He was probably afraid of the pain and didn't dare to be too harsh on himself. The scar was not serious, and you could still vaguely see the two words "tattoo".
Princess Hengyang raised an eyebrow: "Tsk, you really are trying to deceive a girl by tattooing her nickname."
There was a lot of commotion here, so Xiao Yechen came with a group of male guests, and the prince also came with him.
The prince, who was enjoying the excitement, asked curiously, "What happened? It seems to me that Auntie is about to hold a trial."
Princess Hengyang stood up, ceded the throne, and briefly explained the whole process to the Crown Prince: "Although my brother recently gave me a reward, I do not have the power to convict or sentence anyone. I will have to ask the Crown Prince to do this for me."
The prince looked around and looked at Shen Qingyuan: "I feel that among those present, no one can judge a case better than Lord Shen."
"This matter involves my wife, so I should avoid suspicion. I beg Your Highness the Crown Prince to uphold justice."
Since Shen Qingyuan said so, the prince stopped refusing and sat on the armchair. Madam Xiao also asked the servants to bring chairs and screens in time to separate the male and female guests.
Su Yang originally wanted to show off his talents and make friends with the powerful today, but Feng Yinyin's appearance caught him off guard, and the fact that the prince wanted to personally try him made him feel cold.
He didn't know when Cao Chunxi had joined forces with Feng Yinyin, or to what extent they had investigated the Feng family's affairs. He originally wanted to coax Feng Yinyin and resolve the matter privately, but he didn't expect Princess Hengyang and the Crown Prince to interrogate him on the spot.
The incident happened so suddenly that Su Yang's mind was a little confused. Before he could think of a response plan, the prince spoke: "Who is the victim? Come out and speak."
Feng Yinyin knelt down and recounted in detail what had happened in the Feng family. Finally, she said, "After Su Yang returned to the Feng family, he showed his courtesy to me in every way, and he made an engagement with me two years ago. Even if Madam Shen and him were still engaged as children, he was the one who broke the engagement first. Moreover, he had already returned to Hanjing at the beginning of last year. At that time, Madam Shen was still unmarried, but he never showed up. Now he is bringing up the child engagement again. It is obvious that he is jealous of Madam Shen's good life now, and he is deliberately taking advantage of it to gain benefits from Madam Shen!"
Chunxi gave Feng Yinyin the opportunity to redress her grievances in front of the prince. Feng Yinyin naturally reciprocated by defending Chunxi's reputation in public.
Regardless of whether this child marriage still counts, Chunxi is not at fault.
Su Yang was annoyed by Feng Yinyin's accusation and argued loudly: "Your Highness, I didn't do it. It was this bitch who lied..."
Before he could finish his words, a palace servant stepped forward and slapped Su Yang twice: "How dare you! The Crown Prince hasn't told you to speak yet, who gave you the courage to shout here?"
Su Yang's face was already scratched, and now he was slapped twice. His face was burning with pain, and he immediately lowered his head and dared not speak anymore.
The prince looked at Feng Yinyin and asked, "Do you have any evidence for what you just said, young lady?"
"Yes, Su Yang tattooed the word 'minnu' on his left chest to please me. He still has the scar on his chest now. Madam Shen also helped me find some witnesses."
Chunxi had already prepared everything. After Feng Yinyin finished speaking, he asked someone to bring the witness.
The Feng family loved Feng Yinyin very much and attached great importance to her marriage. Although Su Yang had shown deep love for Feng Yinyin before, the Feng family still invited a respected old man from Yuzhou to witness and write a marriage certificate for the two.
One is to express good wishes to the two of them, and the other is to prevent Su Yang from changing his mind after getting a good score in the exam or being taken as a son-in-law by someone else.
Chunxi found this old gentleman, as well as the former clerks and doctors at Feng's Clinic, and even the people who used to work at Su's father's escort agency.
These people can prove that Su Yang colluded with outsiders to murder the Feng family, and they can also prove that the child marriage between the Cao and Su families had long been abolished and was no longer valid. Su Yang is a complete villain.
At first, Su Yang was still thinking about how to defend himself. As he watched the witnesses come in one by one, the color on his face gradually faded, and there was only one thought left in his mind.
It’s over!
Cao Chunxi found out everything he did in Yuzhou.
He shouldn't have kept Feng Yinyin out of kindness.
It was a very cold day, but Su Yang was sweating profusely. He no longer thought about how to exonerate himself, but was thinking about what to say to reduce his guilt.
Just as he was lost in thought, Su's mother's voice suddenly rang out, "I did all this. If you want to arrest someone, arrest me, not my son. I bribed the men at the Feng Family Clinic to adulterate the medicine and harm people. I also deliberately found a scoundrel who was dying of illness to blackmail the Feng family. I deserve to die, but my son knows nothing. He's innocent."
Su's mother took all the blame on herself and cleared Su Yang of all responsibility.
Su Yang frowned, struggled for a moment, and made a decision: "Mom, grandpa and uncle treat us well, how can you be so cruel to them?"
Su Yang's voice was loud and his words were righteous.
It seemed as if he really had nothing to do with these things.
Su's mother was stunned for a moment, her pupils trembling slightly, but she quickly reacted and cooperated with red eyes.
"Yang'er, what you see is just appearances. Your grandfather and uncle treat you well because they value your knowledge and hope that you will bring honor to them when you become an official in the future. They don't really care about you at all. If mother doesn't make plans for you, you will only be a son-in-law in the Feng family in the future. You will never be able to hold your head up high in this life. Then all the hard work you put into studying will be in vain."
After saying this, Su's mother was about to hit the pillar, but fortunately Xiao Yechen stopped her in time.
Su Yang's eyes flashed with disappointment. Afraid of being seen, he quickly lowered his head and said to the Crown Prince, "Your Highness, although I am completely unaware of what my mother has done, she gave birth to me after all. She is too old to bear the punishment. I beg Your Highness to let my mother go. I am willing to take the punishment for her!"
Su Yang said this while bowing to the ground. His filial piety was so touching that it moved heaven and earth.
However, the Crown Prince remained unmoved, and even sneered, "I've heard of cutting off one's tail to survive, but this is the first time I've seen someone sacrifice their own mother to save themselves. Do you think you're the only smart person in the world, and everyone else is a fool?"
The prince's tone was full of sarcasm. Su Yang was about to speak, but the prince spoke first: "Come here, break his legs for me."
At the prince's command, someone immediately came to hold Su Yang. Su Yang was in a state of panic. He looked at Chunxi and shouted, "Madam Shen, I was wrong. I shouldn't have been so greedy and provoked you. Please let me go!"
Chunxi had a cold face and did not move his eyebrows.
Su Yang didn't realize that he was wrong, but he knew that he was going to die. Repentance at this time was worthless.
