No. 1 Girl in the Imperial City

Chapter 426 Judgment!

"Big sister, do you think Xu Zhaolin will sign and leave the letter?" Luo Junyao asked softly while helping Luo Mingxiang walk to the mansion.

Luo Mingxiang thought for a while, then smiled lightly and said, "No."

"Then why did you say..." Luo Junyao was a little puzzled, and quickly realized: "You did it on purpose? You want to take him to court?"

Luo Mingxiang raised his hand to caress her abdomen, and said lightly: "If not, I'm afraid this child will have trouble after birth. The Xu family won't let go so easily."

These days, people always hope that women will be more tolerant, even if the husband cheats on the marriage, even if the husband is malicious to him, as long as nothing really happens, he still hopes that the woman will let the past go.

Even if everyone condemned him when the accident happened, the people in the world would still be unable to help but lean towards the man after the incident had passed.

Luo Jun twitched his lips a little unhappy, and said, "It's so troublesome, why don't I just kill Xu Zhaolin before."

Luo Mingxiang nodded her eyebrows and smiled, "Then why didn't the regent directly kill those courtiers who opposed him?"

Luo Jun shook his head and said, "There is no end to killing people who disagree with their political opinions. Besides, even if they can be killed so that no one dares to oppose him, what's the point of this court? Aren't those officials all turned into wooden people?"

No matter how powerful and wise Xie Yan is, he will inevitably make mistakes.From ancient times to the present, there is no one in high position who can stabilize the world for a long time by killing people.

The complete lack of opposition is a danger in itself.

Luo Mingxiang smiled and said: "So you still know these truths. If you kill Xu Zhaolin, I will still be the daughter-in-law of the Xu family. Even if I remarry in the future, I will still be the widow of the Xu family. I don't want to do this. !"

Luo Jun glanced at her abdomen indiscriminately, but Luo Mingxiang noticed it. She lowered her head and smiled and said, "This is different. He is not only the blood of the Xu family, but also my child."

Luo Jun shook his head, put his arms around her arm and said, "Whatever Big Sister thinks, we will support you."

The two went directly to the Su family's courtyard but found outsiders were still there. Seeing the woman kneeling in front of the Su family, Luo Junyao couldn't help but frown.

Su Shi was also a little surprised to see the two people coming in, and glared at the girl who came in behind them.

Luo Mingxiang smiled and waved the girl back, saying: "Mother, don't blame her, we didn't let her in to report. This..." Luo Mingxiang looked at the woman kneeling on the ground, and said: "This Is it Miss Jade?"

The person kneeling on the ground was none other than Deng Yuniang, she was startled when she raised her head to see Luo Mingxiang.

Deng Yuniang's face doesn't seem to have changed much, but it won't make people see that she looks similar to Luo Mingxiang at a glance, and she has put a lot of effort into dressing up, so it really doesn't look very imaginable.

"Mother, why is she here?" Luo Junyao asked.

Su Shi said: "She told the people around her that she wanted to see Ming Xiang. I wanted to..." She didn't want her daughter to see this woman, so she wanted to deal with it herself, but it was so unfortunate that the two came back so soon.

In the past few days, Deng Yuniang was surrounded by people from the Prince Regent's Mansion, so she could naturally pass the words to the Luo family.

Luo Mingxiang looked a little complicated, looked at the woman kneeling on the ground, shook his head and said, "Get up and talk."

Only then did Deng Yuniang stand up slowly, she was a little older than Luo Mingxiang, and her abdomen could already be seen.

Deng Yuniang looked at Luo Mingxiang with equally complicated emotions, and said after a while: "I did what the Princess Regent asked me to do, but... I changed my mind, and I want to ask the Princess Regent to do it."

Luo Mingxiang said: "You are looking for me? Why don't you let someone tell me directly?"

Deng Yuniang didn't speak, she really wanted to see Luo Mingxiang.

"What do you want?" Luo Mingxiang asked.

Deng Yuniang said: "I want to leave Shangyong."

"Huh?" Luo Junyao was a little surprised, "Aren't you marrying Xu Zhaolin?"

Deng Yuniang smiled wryly, and said: "Even if the princess can really force the Xu family to marry me in, how long can I live after I marry in?"

Why did the Xu family marry the eldest daughter of the Luo family?And why is Xu Zhaolin still kneeling at the gate of the Luo family begging for forgiveness even though the eldest daughter of the Luo family was kidnapped on the day she got married, even though she has lost all face in the past few days?
Before Deng Yuniang was brought in through the corner gate, the carriage passed by the gate just in time to see the scene of Xu Zhaolin kneeling on the ground, and when the two sides went to court a few days ago, Mrs. Chun'anbo pushed everything on herself desperately.The lover she had been longing for finally showed his true colors under such circumstances. Although his words were not as harsh as Mrs. Chun'anbo, how could a woman like Deng Yuniang not understand the meaning behind the words?
It was she who shamelessly seduced the young son of Chun'an Bo, and it was she who threatened Xu Zhaolin with such an excuse, so that he would not dare to leave her.Everything was the fault of her scheming prostitute, how could the noble and well-educated son of Chun'anbo be wrong?He was just too young to be deceived.

Regarding Xu Zhaolin, Deng Yuniang did not dare to say that she was really brand new and had no distractions, but she asked herself that she had never done anything wrong to Xu Zhaolin before.

When Xu Zhaolin saw her for the first time, he fell in love with her, and then he often went to see her.The two soon fell in love, and she was reluctant to see him spend a lot of money just to see her, and she did not want to see other guests.Fighting to be cleaned up by his mother for countless times, he paid almost all of his private house to redeem himself, just because he said he wanted to marry her to come in.

In fact, she may not know that his words cannot be fulfilled. At first, she only thought that as long as they can be together, it is better to be an aunt than to be a prostitute.

Later, when he married the eldest daughter of the Luo family, she was naturally very sad and angry and refused to see him. He said that after the eldest son of the Luo family was born, he would tell her to take her in.

But she didn't want to find out that she was pregnant not long after, and she didn't want her child to be an ex-child, so she quarreled with him again.It just so happened that Miss Luo was also pregnant every few days. At that time, he was not only sincere but also impulsive, saying that the life of the two children was not too different, and when Miss Luo gave birth to the child, he would try to carry the child to Mrs. Chun'anbo I will raise them by my side, and then I will replace the two children.

When she is able to enter the door, they will bring Miss Luo's child back to Xu's house. At that time, they will try to find a new identity for her, saying that the child was born to her and her ex-husband.

She was taken aback by the idea at the time, but she couldn't deny that she was really moved.Her child is also the grandson of the Chun'anbo Mansion, so why should she be looked down upon?

This may be retribution, she has never done anything sorry to others in her life, and she has fallen into the current situation just because of such thoughts.

The entire Chun'anbo Mansion is looking forward to the support of the Luo family, what qualifications and ability does she have to compete with the eldest daughter of the Luo family?
Xu Zhaolin was not good, the eldest girl of the Luo family just threw him away, but Xu Zhaolin wanted to kneel at the door of his house and beg for forgiveness.

When she was standing in Jingzhao Yamen, she even thought that if Xu Zhaolin didn't know about those things at all, as long as Xu Zhaolin felt sorry for her at all, she would fight back with her life.In front of the lord of the yamen and so many people, the Prince Regent's Mansion and the Luo family might not be able to stop her on the spot.

Unfortunately, Xu Zhaolin let her down.

At that moment, she also understood that the Princess Regent had no intention of giving her any other choice at all. If she really entered Xu's house, she would only die.

Luo Junyao looked at Deng Yuniang, "You're pretty smart, but don't blame me for being cruel. If you were just Xu Zhaolin's outer room, I would only find Xu Zhaolin and not you. Who made you want to change my eldest sister?" Where is the child?"

Deng Yuniang's complexion changed, she gritted her teeth and said, "I didn't! I refused! He...he said it on impulse, without really thinking..." It's not that she didn't want to, but she couldn't.

What Xu Zhaolin said when he was passionate was too unfeasible, and she was no longer the Jade Lady she was when she followed Xu Zhaolin.What's more, it didn't take long for the capital to report that the two children of the Liu family were replaced by the nanny.The nanny of the Liu family didn't receive too much punishment, but she didn't dare to bet that the Luo family would let them go if they failed.

A few days later, Xu Zhaolin told her that he had a new method.

On the day Luo Mingxiang gave birth, they tried to put their child at the gate of Xu's family, and then made some noise.At that time, Mrs. Chun'anbo will come forward and leave the child in the Xu family to raise her, saying that she is doing good deeds for the newborn grandson.In two years, if she enters the mansion, she will naturally be able to raise the child by herself, if she still fails, let Luo Mingxiang adopt the child as a foster son.Although it is not as good as the Xu family's biological status, it is much more beautiful than the concubine.

Luo Jun shook his head and said, "No, he thought about it. The two of you talked about it privately. You didn't tell us, and neither did he. Then guess how I know?"

Deng Yuniang's complexion changed, and Luo Junyao sighed, "He did change his mind. Not long after the Chinese New Year, he gave up his mind and sent away the people who prepared this matter. But since we want to investigate him, Of course, we need to investigate carefully and thoroughly.”

Deng Yuniang lowered her head and said sadly: "I have already fallen into the hands of the princess, and I have nothing to do with her."

Luo Jun smiled, turned to look at Luo Mingxiang and asked, "Big sister, what do you want to do?"

Luo Mingxiang said: "You can leave if you want."

Deng Yuniang raised her head in surprise, she never thought that Luo Mingxiang would really let her go.

Luo Mingxiang said: "I have no enmity with you, since you helped me expose Xu Zhaolin's true face, it's considered clean."

Deng Yuniang looked deeply at Luo Mingxiang for a while, before she bowed deeply to her, and said, "Thank you Miss Luo for your generosity, I guarantee that I will never step into Shangyong again in this life."

Luo Junyao asked: "Where do you want to go after leaving Shangyong?"

Deng Yuniang said: "My hometown is Yongzhou, I want to go back."

Luo Junyao thought for a while and said: "The world is not stable now, I will send someone to take you back."

"Thank you, princess." Deng Yuniang did not refuse, no matter whether the princess regent wanted to send someone to watch her or something else, at least she could guarantee her safe return to her hometown.

The regent princess is right, the world is not stable now, and it is not safe for her to go alone as a pregnant woman, not to mention that she cannot guarantee that the Xu family will not trouble her again.

Deng Yuniang was quickly sent away, Luo Junyao looked at Luo Mingxiang and said, "Big sister, you really don't blame this Deng Yuniang?"

Luo Mingxiang shook his head and smiled and said, "What's the blame? I... I'm not lucky. It's better to know now than ten or eight years later." It broke my mother's heart, and this is another way of saying it.

But it was also true, if she found out about this matter ten years later, she might really give Xu Zhaolin a knife.

Su Shi was very ashamed of her daughter, how could she not understand after hearing this, and hated herself even more in her heart because she was blind and didn't see the true face of the Xu family.

Su stretched out his hand to hold his daughter's hand and said: "You can let Deng Yuniang go, these people are not worthy of your concern." If you don't really want to open your mind, how can you be so free and easy?Those wives who tortured their concubines desperately, besides not wanting their concubines to threaten their status, are they more unable to get over that hurdle?

Su could only rejoice in her heart that her daughter did not fall headfirst on Xu Zhaolin, a hypocrite.

As expected by Luo Mingxiang, the Xu family did not send He Lishu over the next day, and Xu Zhaolin still knelt at the gate of the Luo family to plead guilty.

On the third day, Chun Anbo personally escorted Xu Zhaolin to the door, but when they arrived at Luo's house, they were told that the wife and eldest lady were not at home and had gone to the Jingzhao Yamen.

Uncle Chun'an and his son suddenly felt bad. When they got home, they were told that someone had come from the Jingzhao Yamen. My child, please ask Chun Anbo and the eldest son to confront the yamen.

When Chun Anbo heard the bad news, he turned his head to look at Xu Zhaolin, and when he saw the expression on his face, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and almost spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot.

"Evil obstacle! Evil obstacle!" Why did he give birth to such an evil obstacle?Where did the Xu family feel sorry for him?

Since he was a child, all the resources of the Xu family have been close to him, and the marriage is not forced by the family to make him mention it.In order to get Mrs. Luo to allow him to marry him, he, Mrs. Luo and even the old lady have spent a lot of thought, and Mrs. Luo is not an arrogant and arrogant person, so why is he dissatisfied?Do you want to harm the Xu family like this?

"You..." Chun Anbo pointed at Xu Zhaolin with trembling fingers, and roared angrily, "Get lost! The Xu family has no descendants like you!"

No matter how reluctant Chun Anbo is, he still has to face the summons from Jingzhao Yamen.

Jing Zhaoyin is also straightforward. As the saying goes, it is difficult for an upright official to resolve family affairs, but this kind of case is easy to resolve as long as one party is determined to provide solid evidence.

The most fearful thing is that one party obviously has evidence but is reluctant to break it clean, and even uses the Yamen as a tool for both sides to argue and argue.Your side has enforced the law impartially, and the husband and wife are reunited after turning around.The common people will not talk about the couple, maybe they can make up a few good stories, and then they will say that the government's punishment is harsh and unreasonable.

According to the "Dasheng Tonglu", if the woman cheats on the marriage, the father will be punished for fifty years, and she will be punished for three years.The man cheated on the marriage, the father and the man were held together for fifty years, and five years in prison.The dowry will not be refunded when the woman returns home.

The reason for such a difference is that in the eyes of the world, a woman's marriage is completely decided by her parents, even if it is a fraudulent marriage, the responsibility lies entirely with her parents.Moreover, it is already a great punishment for a woman to be difficult to marry after being abandoned and her reputation is ruined.

Because of Luo Mingxiang's resolute attitude, it is obvious that he has no intention of reconciling with Xu Zhaolin, and Jing Zhaoyin's judgment on the case is also very fast.

Chun'anbo didn't know about it, so he only punished him fifty times with a cane and exempted him from imprisonment.

Xu Zhaolin and Mrs. Chun'anbo are each responsible for fifty sticks, and Mrs. Chun'anbo cheated on marriage for five years.Before Deng Yuniang told Mrs. Chun'an that she intended to kill someone to silence her, but she accidentally encountered a gangster and misunderstood her, so she was not punished.

Xu Zhaolin cheated on the marriage, intending to replace his first wife and the son born to his wife, but he didn't implement it and gave up on his own.

Xu Zhaolin was sentenced to sever the marriage relationship with Luo's daughter, and the child in Luo Mingxiang's womb belonged to the Luo family, and had no relationship with the Xu family.

After reading the verdict, Jing Zhaoyin slapped the gavel beside him and asked, "Are there any objections to my verdict?"

Luo Jinyan turned his head to look at Luo Mingxiang, Luo Mingxiang lowered his eyes and said: "The girl of the people has no objection, thank you sir for judging the case impartially."

Jing Zhaoyin nodded in satisfaction, and he also felt that he did not favor any side. It would be great if the Luo family was satisfied.

If the Luo family presses for a heavy sentence, there is nothing he can do.

"Chun'an Bo Mansion, do you have any objections?"

Chun'anbo looked haggard at this moment, he just shook his head and didn't speak.

Mrs. Chun'anbo, who was escorted to kneel on the ground, was full of resignation, and she reached out her hand to pull the corner of Luo Mingxiang's skirt, "Mingxiang, why are you so cruel?! Is our family treating you badly these days? Hurry up and follow me!" Say good things, my lord."

Luo Mingxiang looked at her calmly and did not speak, Xu Zhaolin's face was full of pain, "Mingxiang, are you really unwilling to give me a chance? The relationship between husband and wife these days, you..."

Luo Mingxiang said: "I gave you a chance yesterday."

Xu Zhaolin remained silent.

yesterday?Let him send He Lishu there this morning, what kind of opportunity is this?
How could she be so cruel?He was just confused when he was young, and he secretly regretted it a long time ago, and wanted to live a good life with her.

"Ming Xiang, I know I was wrong." Xu Zhaolin begged, "I wanted to tell you a long time ago, but I just don't know how to say it. Please forgive me!"

Luo Mingxiang turned his head to Luo Jinyan and Mrs. Luo beside him and said, "Brother, mother, let's go."

They didn't reconcile, but were directly sentenced by the government to sever their marriage relationship. The government would naturally write down the severance document, and she didn't even need to take the divorce document.

Su nodded solemnly, stopped looking at the remorseful former son-in-law, and pulled her daughter out.

Jing Zhaoyin glanced at the people in the hall, and said in a deep voice, "Drag out and execute!"

Looking at Chun'an Bo with a blank face, Jing Zhaoyin couldn't help feeling a little sympathetic towards him.

Don't look at him being exempted from the prison sentence for fraudulent marriage, the real test of this Chun'anbo is yet to come.

When such a thing happened in the family, it was obvious that Chun Anbo was incapable of discipline.

In the past few days, people impeached the Chun'anbo Mansion every day, and the papers of impeachment had long been piled up on the Prince Regent's desk.Now that the yamen's verdict has come out, the Chun'anbo Mansion may be finished.
