The peasant girl who escaped the desert: she cried when she found the cruel prince

Chapter 503
Jingli's heart skipped a beat when she heard this, she was afraid something might have happened.

Zhong Wending said angrily: "Why is it too late to call me? She is just a woman. She is just a woman, so how can anyone know about it?"

Zhong Sheng burst into tears with laughter: "To my father and grandmother, Mrs. Yu is just a woman, but to my son, she is the mother of Brother Tao and Yuan'er."

"You killed Brother Tao and his mother, who had no fault at all, just for the sake of brotherhood. How will Brother Tao face his father and grandfather when you let him grow up?"

"As a son, shouldn't he be filial to his mother?"

Mr. Chen and Luo Tongpan looked at each other, thinking that Mr. Yu might have committed suicide and that would make Zhong Sheng so crazy.

When Zhong Sheng said this, he knelt down heavily towards Jing Li: "Mother, the common people heard that you set up a charity hall and raised many baby girls who were abandoned by others. Is this a problem?"

Jing Li was confused and said, "Huh? This is what happened to you."

Zhong Sheng suddenly kowtowed, startling everyone.

"Your Majesty, my little girl is less than four years old. Now that she has lost her mother, life will definitely be difficult in the future. Please ask your Majesty to take her in. I, Zhong Sheng, will definitely remember your Majesty's kindness even if I go to hell!"

"This" Jingli has never seen such a scene.

The Zhong family is not an ordinary family. Zhong Sheng's legitimate daughter is also a daughter of a noble family. How could she end up sending her daughter to a charity?
Zhong Wending was furious: "Treason, your parents are here, but you want to entrust your child to someone else. Are you going to tear my father's face off?"

It is a matter of family affairs of the Zhong family, and Jingli must not get involved in this matter.

Mr. Chen also worried and advised: "Second Young Master, we are all one family, we must not say such things!"

"What's more, if you entrust your daughter to your mother-in-law in front of your biological father, wouldn't you be committing an injustice to your mother-in-law?"

Zhong Sheng leaned towards Jing Li again and said, "I know that I am ashamed to act like this!"

"But I have no other choice. Father, ask yourself, between the Yu family and the third brother in the next room, you chose the third brother, not Brother Tao's mother!"

"Now that the third brother has died because of Yuan'er's mother, and my grandmother has always loved the third brother, how can she not be angry with Yuan'er brother and sister?"

Zhong Sheng burst into tears when facing Zhong Wending: "Father, Brother Tao is a boy. Even if grandma doesn't like him, you and mother will take care of him to some extent!"

"But Yuan'er, who has lost the protection of her parents and is not yet a governor, how can she face the warmth and warmth of people in the house?"

"The servants in the house are accustomed to flattering others and putting down others, so how can they take a girl who has lost her mother and is not valued by her family seriously?"

Zhong Wending pointed at his son and trembled: "You actually think of me and your mother so badly. Are your biological grandparents not as reliable as an outsider?"

"Yes!" Zhong Sheng met his father's gaze and affirmed: "Father looks down on women, but I admire your empress very much. She has a mind that no man can match!"

"Such a magnanimous person will definitely not live up to his trust!"

Zhong Wending's eyes were red and he looked at his son with anger. His chest was rising and falling, and he was obviously very angry.

Mr. Chen was afraid that he would get angry and fall down in the palace, which would make things difficult for the princess, so he hurriedly said: "Mr. Zhong, how can father and son have an overnight feud? I think the second young master must have been confused for a moment, so he spoke like this. Please calm down. Come down, it won’t be like this!”

"I want you to take care of it!" Zhong Wending rolled his sleeves and shouted angrily: "My Zhong family's affairs will be resolved by my Zhong family. When will it be your old man's turn to interfere!"

Mr. Chen was so angry that his heart ached. He was really kind-hearted, so he shouldn't have spoken out to help this old guy.

With such virtue, it is no wonder that after decades in the army, he is only in the fourth rank now. This fourth rank is all thanks to his capable elder brother who kept him safe.Come to think of it, his words have caused him a lot of trouble over the years.

Mr. Chen thought to himself, even if you are chopped into pieces by the empress, I will never say a kind word to you again.

Jing Li squinted at Zhong Wending. This typical scholar came from a noble family and valued his nephews more than his granddaughters. No wonder Zhong Sheng wanted to take care of him.

With his temper, he would definitely not take that girl seriously. If the old lady of the Zhong family showed any signs of displeasure, it would be uncertain whether the child would survive.

Zhong Wending glared at Zhong Sheng: "Let me ask you again, would you really rather send Yuan'er to the charity house than to have her in the Zhong family?"

"Yes!" Zhong Sheng said resolutely: "I have no other hope, I just want my two children to live and grow up in peace!"

"Okay! Okay!" Zhong Wending said several good words in a row, and finally pointed at his son and said: "I want to tell you, if you want to send her to the shrine, she will no longer be an heir of my Zhong family!"

"She is really an orphan girl who deserves to be admitted to the shrine!"

Zhong Sheng was startled, then his face became filled with sadness: "Both her parents are dead, so what is she if she's not an orphan?"

"You traitor!" Zhong Wending shouted these two words unbearably, and then staggered outside.

Zhong Sheng, who was behind him, faced Zhong Wending's back: "Father, please tell mother that your son will repay you in the next life for the kindness you have given us!"

Then there were several loud bangs on the bluestone floor.

Hearing this, Zhong Wending stood still, shook his body, and finally left without looking back.

Seeing Zhong Wending's figure disappear, Zhong Sheng said to Jing Li: "Your Majesty, I know that I have committed the crime of murder and cannot escape death. Please accept my little girl out of your loving heart!"

Jing Li sighed: "Zhong Sheng, you weren't the one who killed Zhong Yuan, right?"

Zhong Sheng's eyes flashed with panic when he heard this, and even Lord Chen and Luo Tongpan were a little stunned for a moment.

There are all the witnesses and material evidence, how can the empress still say such things!
"Although I didn't see Zhong Yuan's body with my own eyes, I saw several suspicious points from this file!" Jing Li pointed at the file.

Judge Luo Tong broke out in cold sweat on his forehead. He bowed and said to Jingli: "My dearest concubine, I have checked with you again and again. The wounds and the murder weapon are all consistent with what the second young master said. So, I don't know where else I can find." Didn’t the official notice?”

Jing Li stood up and said to a few people, "You conducted the examination very carefully, and I also paid great attention to details when conducting the autopsy."

"But you have ignored the bite marks and bruises on your body. May I ask if the Second Young Master did it, how could you do such a thing?"

Luo Tongpuan instantly realized that the person who acted like this was clearly a woman. The Second Young Master Zhong in front of him would definitely not be able to do this.

Zhong Sheng had panic on his face: "I hate him so much that I wish I could eat his flesh alive. Why can't I do this?"

Jing Li shook his head: "The autopsy says that if the tooth marks are plastered, how could it be caused by a man? Moreover, the color of the wound on the back is different from the wound on the front. It obviously didn't happen at the same time!"

Luo Tongpan's heart was beating like thunder. Yes, he was a little doubtful about the teeth marks at first. How could a man's mouth be so big?

Jing Li looked at Zhong Sheng and said solemnly: "Zhong Yuan was killed by your wife Yu, and you followed Yu and discovered Yu's murderous behavior, so you had to add some new fatalities in an attempt to cover up Yu. crime!"

"Zhong Sheng, is what I said wrong?"
