449 Obtain A Confession Under Torture (1)
Madam Li, who was standing in the crowd and listening to everyone’s discussion, turned pale. She knew that what Shen Ruyun said was not the truth at all.
However, she had no way to explain herself because she had indeed chosen Shen Ruyun back then. No matter how much she thought about it, she could not change this fact.
She was in the wrong. She had let Sister Jia down. For the past two years, she had not dared to mention this matter, afraid that Sister Jia would fall out with her family because of it. She did not know how to face it.
Unexpectedly, someone still mentioned it and even put Sister Jia in such an embarra.s.sing situation.
!!“No.” Madam Li clenched her fists, her fingertips turning white. “It’s me. I mistook pearls for rubble back then.”
“Sister Jia is a good girl. Our Song family is lucky to have such a daughter-in-law.”
She raised her voice, but unfortunately, no one listened to her. Some people even wondered if the second daughter of the Shen family was too powerful and had Madam Song under her control.
Shen Yijia turned around and grinned at Madam Li, indicating that she was fine.
In any case, she did not care if these people insulted or slandered her.
All she cared about was the family she acknowledged.
She could also tell that the Shen family was trying to push the blame to her and clear Shen Pingxiu’s name.
On the other side, Mo Yuan left the Imperial Capital and went straight to the Court of Judicial Review.
She reported her ident.i.ty and explained her intentions. Unexpectedly, when the people from the Court of Judicial Review heard that she was from the Song family, they wanted to chase her away without a word.
Mo Yuan frowned. These people were clearly instructed by someone.
She wanted to go in. If these people refused to talk, someone would eventually.
Amidst the pushing, someone walked out.
Deputy Minister Du looked at the people outside the door and shouted sternly, “What’s going on?”
A guard replied, “Lord Du, this crazy woman is obstructing official business here. We’re about to chase her away!”
Deputy Minister Du glanced at Mo Yuan and said coldly, “Hurry up and leave. Fortunately, Lord Song went to Cangtong Town today and isn’t here. Otherwise, if you dare to cause trouble in the Court of Judicial Review, he’ll definitely lock you up.”
Mo Yuan pushed away the person tugging at her sleeve and turned to leave.
Deputy Minister Du raised his eyebrows and reprimanded, “What a commotion. Is this a market? The next time someone comes to cause trouble, they’ll naturally leave after you scare them. Otherwise, are the cells inside just decorations?”
All the guards thought to themselves, “Are you sure that she was scared away by you? Not because you told her what she wanted to know? Besides, didn’t Lord Luo say…”
Seeing that they were still in a daze, Deputy Minister Du said impatiently, “What are you waiting for? Do you have nothing to do?”
Cangtong Town was not considered close to the capital. It would take about four to six hours to walk southwest from the western city gate.
It would have been fine if they could meet halfway. If not, they would have to waste even more time. They might not even be able to rush back in the afternoon.
Mo Yuan went home first and got a horse. When she left the city gate, she saw a little beggar. She thought for a moment and rode over.
Hearing more and more criticism outside, a mocking expression flashed across Shen Ruyun’s face. She looked up at Lord Cai, who had stood up as soon as she entered.
Lord Cai exhaled. “She finally noticed me.” he thought.
He was about to go down and greet Consort Jing when Shen Ruyun waved her hand to stop him and said with a smile, “This case involves my father. I’m just here to take a look. Lord Cai, you don’t have to care about me. Please continue.”
“Yes.” Lord Cai broke out in a cold sweat. Consort Jing was already here, and those words just now. Did she represent Lord Jing?
Shen Ruyun spoke politely, but Lord Cai did not dare to treat her as if she did not exist.
He called for someone to bring a chair for her before sitting back down. He patted the wood and came to a conclusion for this case. “The criminal, Madam Song Shen, was framed, kidnapped, and beat up an official of the imperial court. The evidence is conclusive. Her crimes are unforgivable.”
“Wait.” Shen Yijia suddenly interrupted him.
Lord Cai choked. “What else do you have to say?”
Shen Yijia widened her eyes and said indignantly, “I haven’t confessed yet, but you want to convict me just because of what they said. What kind of crime are you convicting me of?”
Before Shen Ruyun came, Lord Cai was still watching the show. As soon as she arrived, he immediately wanted to convict Shen Yijia. It was obvious that he was a muddle-headed official.
No matter what, she would probably be charged with this crime today. If she was locked up, there would probably be news of her “committing suicide” in less than a day.
Shen Yijia knew that it was useless for her to say anything now. She had taken a look just now and did not see Mo Yuan. She must have gone to look for her beautiful husband. What she had to do now was to stall for time.
