Rebirth of the eldest daughter

Chapter 1350 Court trial confrontation ()

Fan Ruixian looked at Fan Zhongqian with an indifferent expression, a mixture of resentment and resentment flashed in her eyes, but they were fleeting.

"Grandpa, be careful."

She supported the old man and slowly knelt down: "Greetings to His Highness Ninth Prince."

Liu Yao said quietly: "Get up. Give Mr. Ding a seat."

A chair was brought up, and Fan Ruixian helped the old man sit down.

The man Liu Yao called Mr. Ding was the father of Fan Ruixian's biological mother.

He sat with red eyes and no words.

Fan Ruixian saluted Tang Jun: "Thank you for speaking for my mother, and thank you for being willing to die to preserve her last reputation."

Tang Jun lowered his head, ashamed.

Fan Ruixian continued: "But, mother, she is a person who can distinguish right from wrong. If she knew that someone allowed a treacherous and evil person to go unpunished in order to preserve her reputation, then she would definitely be uneasy under Jiuquan."

"Only by letting all the truth be made known to the world can her spirit in heaven be comforted, and..." Fan Ruixian choked up, "Only by letting her great revenge be avenged, so that she will not live with injustice forever."

Tang Jun's lips trembled: "Am I wrong again?"

Years ago, he stood idly by and blamed himself for not being able to save the poor man.

Years later, he wished to protect that person's reputation, but failed to consider that, rather than reputation, the poor person might care more about her injustice being known and that the person who harmed her should be punished as he should.

Fan Ruixian spoke slowly: "Everything is possible, there is still time."

After saying that, Fan Ruixian knelt down on her knees again: "Your Majesty, Ninth Prince, I have something to tell you."

The people who were watching were in an uproar.

"Another twist?"

"This matter is really full of twists and turns. What exactly is going on?"

"Isn't that the third girl of the Fan family who got married? Is she here to help her father, or is she here to kill her relatives for justice?"

"Things are getting more and more confusing. Li!"

"Just wait and see! I think the truth will surface soon."

"..."

Amid the discussion, Bai Mingwei met Liu Yao's eyes again.

Liu Yao nodded slightly, and then said, "Mr. Fan, please tell me."

Fan Zhongqian stared at Fan Ruixian fiercely: "You are not in good health, get down quickly!"

After that, he quickly said: "Your Majesty Ninth Highness, my daughter has been greatly stimulated because everyone in her husband's family was killed in this natural disaster, and her mind is a little unclear. Please forgive me."

"Then my mind should still be clear, right?!" Mr. Ding, who had always been silent, spoke up.

Fan Zhongqian narrowed his eyes and was about to retort.

Liu Yao shouted lowly: "Fan Zhongqian! Whether Fan Ruixian's mind is clear or not is up to me to judge. You are obstructing her in every possible way. What do you want?! If you interfere with the order of the court again, I will definitely punish you severely!"

After the words fell, the officers on the left and right hit the ground with their sticks, making an orderly sound.

Liu Yao ignored Fan Zhongqian and looked at Fan Ruixian and Mr. Ding: "If you have anything to say, just say it."

Fan Ruixian kowtowed three times seriously: "My daughter is here to prove that what my father just said is a lie."

As soon as these words came out, it was like cold water splashing into a frying pan.

There was an uproar outside again. "Sure enough, there is a twist. I wonder what secrets this third girl from the Fan family can reveal about her father?"

"It is said that those who do unrighteousness will be punished by death. This Fan Zhizhou has done all the bad things and ended up being betrayed and separated from his relatives. He deserves it!"

"..."

Fan Ruixian paused, and when she spoke again, her voice was choked with sobs.

With tears in her eyes, she said word by word: "My mother and Tang Jun have no personal relationship or old feelings. They just know each other."

"Later, my mother fell into deep trouble. Tang Jun felt pity and saved my mother from danger many times. It was not that he had any admiration for my mother as my father just said."

Fan Zhongqian quickly interrupted Fan Ruixian: "Nonsense! What do you know about adults? Tang Jun has never married, which is the best proof."

"Ruixian, I am your father! The father who gave birth to you and raised you, how can you help an outsider to bite your own father?"

"Is this how your mother taught you? It's all because of your father's neglect of discipline that you are such a white-eyed wolf!"

"Shut up!" Fan Ruixian's voice was sharp, "Now that things have happened, you still put the blame on my mother!"

"No matter how I am, I still have a father and a mother. If I am not well-educated, it is also my father's and mother's fault! My mother is just a concubine, what does it have to do with her?"

Liu Yao scolded: "Fan Zhongqian! This is the last warning I give you. If you say more, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Fan Ruixian withdrew her gaze and spoke again: "As children, we should not interfere in the private affairs of our elders. However, my biological mother died unjustly at the hands of relatives, and today my biological mother has been slandered again. I really cannot sit idly by and do nothing, so I implore Your Highness to listen to me. After that, punish me for disobedience and unfilial piety."

Liu Yao nodded: "Just tell me."

Fan Ruixian choked up and was unable to speak several times.

But in the end, she gritted her teeth and made her mother's grievances public: "When my mother became a concubine, it was not because of any friendship or admiration."

"It's because my father wanted to climb high and didn't want to give up the support of my mother's family. When my mother expressed her willingness to help him and the current Mrs. Fan, he ruined my mother..."

The people watching were so shocked that they couldn't open their mouths from ear to ear.

Mr. Ding suddenly burst into tears: "What an injustice..."

Tang Jun's closed eyes slowly opened.

He spoke: "Your Highness, Ninth Prince, this is the secret that the criminal was willing to keep even though he was willing to admit that he had framed Fan Zhongqian."

"Aunt Ding and I are innocent and have no personal relationship at all. As the third girl said, I only feel guilt and pity for Aunt Ding."

"When I was renamed and became a minor official, it was not Fan Zhongqian's so-called compensation. It was Fan Zhongqian who arranged for me to take that position in order to facilitate his behind-the-scenes operations."

After a pause, Tang Jun continued:
"And later I helped Aunt Ding many times because she asked me for help when she was... forced, but I refused to save her..."

"This incident has bothered me to this day and I still can't let it go. If I had stopped it at that time, I would not have ruined that poor woman's life."

"I could have refuted Fan Zhongqian just now, but I chose to remain silent, because I think that preserving her last bit of dignity is what I can do to make up for it."

As he spoke, Tang Jun raised his voice:
"Every statement I made against Fan Zhongqian is true! All the account book evidence is well-founded! Please give your Highness a fair verdict and a fair punishment!"

Fan Zhongqian shouted at the top of his lungs: "That's nonsense! You united to frame me!"

Mr. Ding retorted sharply: "He is not talking nonsense! If you hadn't ruined Shuhui in the first place, how could my Ding family, a noble family, let Shuhui be your concubine?!"

At this point, Mr. Ding burst into tears: "Blame me, blame me! I threw my daughter into the fire pit for the sake of face. It has harmed my daughter for a lifetime, and it has also harmed my granddaughter for a lifetime."

"If I hadn't just heard in the back hall that you were confusing right and wrong, slandering Shuhui's reputation, and not even sparing a deceased person, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to make up my mind to say a fair word for her in this lifetime."

"Fan Zhongqian! You are such a wolf-hearted thing! You are a vicious and sycophantic villain! You stepped on my daughter's bones to ascend to power, and yet you shamelessly slandered her. You are really a despicable piece of shit!"

Mr. Ding's words sealed the deal.
