Chapter 726 A Slap That Turns Cold: Vermilion [1 Update]
Because of the recent incident where the Morgan family was dealt with by Yu Shaoyun, the news that the Yu family had taken back a young master spread throughout the World City via W Network.
Many people are curious about Fu Yunshen.
But the secrecy has been excellent, and not a single photo has been leaked online to this day.
The residents all thought that Fu Yunshen had been lost by accident, but they never expected that he was an illegitimate child without a legal status.
[I'm so angry! How much has Lady Vermilion contributed to the City of the World? She married into the Jade Family, and yet she still encountered this!]
[Let me be frank. Regardless of her official status, a woman from outside the city is not worthy of being compared to Lady Zhu Sha, nor is she Her Majesty's right-hand woman or the noble ladies of prominent families.]
As a former leader of the Holy Grail Knights, Vermilion is very well-known.
This is also what the people want.
No one has ever doubted the truthfulness of what she said.
"Everyone, please be quiet." Zhu Sha coughed twice. "I'm serious, and I'm not trying to play the victim. After all, forced relationships are never happy. The young master is the future patriarch, and I'll just be a hindrance in the future."
Why should an illegitimate child be allowed to inherit the Yu family fortune? I disagree!
Disagree +1!
Zhu Sha took a sip of tea, concealing the slight smile in her eyes.
She was well aware of the power of public opinion.
Moreover, not a single word she said was false.
The reporter wiped away his cold sweat: "Madam, please don't get agitated. There's a misunderstanding between you and the young master. We'll invite him over right away, and the misunderstanding will be cleared up."
"I can't persuade him," Zhu Sha sighed softly. "Thank you for your help."
The residents watching the interview with Zhu Sha were still discussing it with great interest, and the topic had gone off-topic.
[Both are first wives; who is superior, Lady Suwen or Lady Zhusha?]
[Tsk tsk, of course it's Lady Zhu Sha! Husband and son are alive and well, a true winner in life. Unlike Su Wen, whose husband is missing and daughter died young, who wouldn't say it's tragic?]
[Who wouldn't feel good about this sudden appearance of an illegitimate child?]
Zhu Sha smiled and was about to speak again.
The door was then kicked open.
A man with a menacing look, gripping his sword, stormed in and kicked away the live-streaming equipment from the reporter's hands.
With a "crack," all the equipment exploded.
The next second, the longsword, gleaming with a cold light, was drawn and plunged directly into Zhu Sha's shoulder.
Yu Shaoyun said, enunciating each word clearly: "You're asking for death!"
Zhu Sha was taken aback.
Before she could say anything, a mouthful of blood welled up uncontrollably and spurted out.
The reporters were all stunned.
Zhu Sha clutched her shoulder, on the verge of tears: "Patriarch, I never imagined that all my efforts in planning and strategizing for the Yu family would be wrong in your eyes?"
"Yu Shaoyun!" The old Madam Yu, who had rushed over, was so angry that her eyes almost blackened. "You've gone completely mad!"
To treat Zhu Sha so cruelly in front of everyone, does the Yu family have no shame?
However, reporters who had heard the news rushed over and crowded into the ward.
"Patriarch, were you really forced to marry and consummate your marriage with Lady Zhu Sha? Was none of this your own choice?"
"Patriarch, you were brain dead for three years back then. The culprit was clearly Fu Liuying. Why are you still siding with her?"
Shao Yun frowned, his expression growing even colder.
"That's not true!" Old Madam Yu interrupted directly, her words firm. "The marriage was based on mutual affection. It was that shameless woman from outside the city who deliberately climbed up to him—"
Before she could finish speaking, a slap came out of nowhere and landed squarely on her face.
With a "snap," the large ward fell silent instantly.
Even Zhu Sha paused for a few seconds before raising his head.
Fu Yunshen leaned against the wall with one hand.
He looked up, his eyes icy, and smiled: "What did you say?"
The reporters were stunned for a moment, then picked up their microphones again and bombarded them with questions.
"This must be the eldest young master? What is your response to Madam Zhu Sha's words?"
"Are you really going to force her to step down? You should know that you are the illegitimate child, what right do you have?"
"He isn't," Shao Yun said, emphasizing each word. "Get out of here, all of you!"
The man exuded an imposing aura.
The reporters shuddered.
Unlike the Leinger family, the Jade family is an absolute symbol of military power.
They dared not press them any further.
The old lady Yu was stunned by the slap. She suddenly sat down on the ground and wailed, "How dare he hit his own grandmother? Is he even human? I'm going to appeal to the court. Someone like that should never be allowed into our Yu family!"
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault." Zhu Sha endured the pain and knelt down in front of everyone. "I'm willing to accept punishment."
"You want to accept it? Fine." Yu Shaoyun sneered, "Take her away."
However, another group of people arrived at the ward.
They were wearing uniforms with a sign on their left side.
The Court of Judgment under the Sage's Judgment!
The lead judge stepped forward and blocked Fu Yunshen's path: "Young Master Fu, you have maliciously slandered Madam Zhu Sha. Please come with us."
"No way!" Shao Yun's eyes were filled with murderous intent. "You're courting death!"
"Chief Yu, please don't make things difficult for us." The judge did not back down. "With ten thousand people petitioning, even you cannot defy public opinion."
The influence of cinnabar is immense.
Thanks to the advanced technology of the world's largest city, the internet exploded in less than ten minutes.
This means that all residents of the City of the World know about this.
"Then I'll go in." Shao Yun pursed his lips. "I'm the one who injured him, it has nothing to do with Xiao Qi."
The judges exchanged glances, even more troubled: "Patriarch Yu, this..."
"The courtroom, is it?" Fu Yunshen patted his lapel with his long, slender fingers, seemingly nonchalant. "Then let's go in."
Shao Yun's expression changed: "Little Seven, the courtroom is—"
Fu Yun Shen glanced at him indifferently and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Don't cause trouble. I don't acknowledge you, and I don't want to see anything happen to you."
"You think things are that simple?"
Before Shao Yun could respond, he followed the judge out of the ward.
After seeing Fu Yunshen leave, Old Madam Yu stopped making a scene.
With the housekeeper's help, she stood up and instantly regained her composure: "Where's the doctor? Come quickly and treat Sha'er!"
"Master, this really wasn't my intention," Zhu Sha said weakly. "I'll go to the courthouse right now and rescue the young master."
"He's not allowed to go," Old Madam Yu said sternly. "He deserves it."
Having finally gotten rid of a thorn in her side, how could she possibly let Fu Yunshen emerge unscathed?
Zhu Sha was about to say something when Old Madam Yu pressed her down on the bed: "Sha'er, you are thinking of others, but they are not thinking of you. Just rest and don't worry about anything else."
**
The news of Fu Yunshen being brought to the courtroom spread throughout the entire city within minutes.
[This is truly gratifying! We strongly demand that the law be enforced throughout the city!]
[Let this outsider know that we are not to be trifled with. He even dared to lay a hand on Lady Zhu Sha; he's got some nerve.]
[The Crimson Commander serves the City of the World; we must not let the hearts of the commanders be broken.]
Below came a chorus of congratulations.
Suwen slammed the computer shut.
The 3D projection image also disappeared instantly.
“Yaoyao, I’m going to the courtroom to bail Yun Shen out.” Suwen stood up and said in a deep voice, “Don’t worry, he’ll be fine.”
She and Zhu Sha didn't have much interaction.
Before she married Lu Yuan, Zhu Sha was the leader of the Holy Grail Knights and lived in the Knights Headquarters.
With just a few words, Fu Yunshen was sent to court.
This woman is anything but simple.
"Auntie, don't worry." Ying Zijing shook her head slightly, and said slowly, "Nothing will happen."
Su Wen was surprised for a moment, pondered for a moment, and then laughed: "I was just too worried. How could you be impulsive?"
"Yes." Ying Zijin nodded and smiled. "I trust him, and I'm prepared."
"It will still be unfair to you." Suwen said sadly in a low voice, "I really can't bear to see children your age suffer."
She looked at the girl and closed her eyes briefly.
Perhaps, it was all just a fleeting, impulsive joy.
**
On the other side.
Courtroom.
prison.
"Go in!"
The warden raised his hand to push the man, but the moment his hand touched the man's clothes, it felt like hitting an impenetrable wall, and he went numb.
But the feeling was fleeting, like an illusion.
The warden didn't think much of it and locked the door with a click.
Two hours later, footsteps were heard.
"Madam Vermilion." The warden looked up respectfully. "Why have you come in person?"
“Let me try to talk to him,” Zhu Sha said with a smile. “This whole thing started because of me, you can go now.”
The warden took his leave.
There was no one else there.
The electronic prison wasn't dark; bright lights fell on the man's handsome face, casting a faint glow over it.
“You are much smarter than Fu Liuying.” Zhu Sha bent down, sighing with a smile, “Unfortunately, you have only been in the City of the World for a short time and cannot compete with me.”
Fu Yunshen slowly raised his eyes.
"Don't look at me like that." Zhu Sha took a step back and smiled again. "It's as if I did something to you. Fu Liuying's death has nothing to do with me, but I am actually quite happy."
One threat has been eliminated, who wouldn't be happy?
“Young Master Fu, you are too impulsive. You could have endured the humiliation.” Zhu Sha sighed again. “Young people are impatient, but I can understand. Who wouldn’t be anxious when their mother is being scolded?”
Human hearts are always the easiest thing to exploit.
Fragile and easily destroyed.
She also loves to manipulate people's hearts.
Fu Yunshen's expression remained unchanged, and his tone was indifferent: "It's you."
"You want to find something on me?" Zhu Sha smiled. "I'll give it to you. That's right, I did help Fu Liuying get kicked out of the city."
Now that Fu Yunshen has been brought to trial, she has nothing left to hide.
"As the leader of the Holy Grail Knights, I told the Yu family that Fu Liuying had joined forces with evil forces to take Yu Shaoyun's life," Zhu Sha said calmly. "It was only because the Sage's Academy dispatched the Knights in time that he was saved."
“Yu Shaoyun didn’t originally need to be brain dead, but I deliberately dragged out the time.”
Fu Yunshen's eyes were indifferent: "It was my mother who saved her."
“Yes, it’s her.” Zhu Sha smiled as if she remembered something. “Her blood has special effects and can cure the vast majority of diseases.”
“If she hadn’t had the ability to save your father, she wouldn’t have been just driven out of the city.”
Yu Shaoyun is brain dead, enraging the Sage's Institute and the Yu family.
Fu Liuying was all alone in the City of the World, with no one to rely on, so naturally she could only be driven away.
Zhu Sha originally intended to kill Fu Liuying directly.
However, the Academy of Sages intervened through an internal meeting, and some sages objected. The matter was eventually dropped when Fu Liuying was expelled from the city.
"What a pity, isn't it?" Zhu Sha covered her lips, feeling very regretful. "If she had stayed in your Huaguo Shanghai and hadn't mistakenly entered the World City, she wouldn't have died so young."
"And you may not know this, but the Yu family was already about to compromise, and they were about to hold their wedding. It was I who stopped them."
"You overestimate yourselves and barge into the City of the World, vainly hoping to compete with true power, but you have no ability and can only become tools of power."
Zhu Sha straightened up and smiled: "Alright, I won't say any more to you. Once you're in the courtroom, don't even think about leaving. I'll see you off on your final journey."
The court is directly under the jurisdiction of the Wise Ones' Court, and the judge is a former colleague of hers with whom she has a close relationship.
Fu Yunshen has no power or influence in the City of the World, so what tricks can he pull?
Zhu Sha felt an unprecedented sense of exhilaration.
Fu Liuying, can you see this?
Even if you die, your son will follow in your footsteps!
And the secret will remain buried forever.
She remains the beloved and respected former leader of the Holy Grail Knights and the first lady of the Jade family.
Zhu Sha smiled gently and kindly.
She lifted her skirt, turned and walked out, her steps graceful.
Fu Yunshen was still leaning against the wall.
He looked up, suddenly smiled, and said in his usual casual tone, "Did you all hear that?"
It's almost the end of the month, please vote for me, my darlings!
