At this time, the Empress Dowager spoke again leisurely and said: "Pass on the Zhang family."
At this time, Zhang Zhenniang was also brought up. She also knelt on the ground and said: "Zhang Zhenniang, a commoner woman, comes to see the emperor, the empress dowager, and the regent."
"Zhang Zhenniang, someone has accused you and Shen Yu of robbing these girls and using them for money. Can you plead guilty?" Jun Ao asked again.
The regent's question was also quite thought-provoking, almost directly wanting to convict Shen Yu.
Zhang Zhenniang said: "The civilian woman does not plead guilty. The civilian woman accompanied her husband to Changlefang to play, and she did not kidnap, sell or rob any girl as they said."
She and Shen Yu had no direct contact with these girls. Those thugs were also members of the Shen family. Their families were in the hands of the Shen family, so even if the incident came to light, they would rather die than expose them.
She pointed at Mu Lingwei and said: "She stabbed my husband with a dagger for no reason, and stabbed him viciously in the lower body, because he really wanted to buy her first night with one hundred thousand taels of silver. The woman thought, The husband may want to buy her because he sees her beauty."
"The commoner woman didn't know Princess Anyang before. She only thought she was a girl from Changlefang. If her husband likes her, the commoner woman is willing to take her as his concubine for her husband. Later I found out that she is actually Princess Anyang."
Zhang Zhenniang began to cry again and accused: "But later, she was dissatisfied that her husband wanted to buy her, so she became angry... and hurt the husband of the common woman."
Mu Lingwei stared at Mrs. Zhang, "It seems that Mrs. Shen is really virtuous. Mrs. Shen Zhang is the most virtuous and generous person at all times and in all over the world. She took the initiative to give Shen Yu'an the status of a prostitute. I have never heard of it or seen it before."
Only then did Zhang Zhenniang dare to look at Mu Lingwei, with fear in her eyes, and said urgently: "There is no law that stipulates that a wife cannot take concubines for her husband, right? Aren't places like brothels just for men to have fun? My husband is not in court. Officer, Princess, there is no need to use the official rhetoric to try to win over me."
"Did I say that Shen Yu is an official? He is the son of Shen Bi, the general of the Long Yuan Kingdom. Even if he is not an official, he will have enough food and clothing." Mu Lingwei directly attacked her: "Besides, Shen Yu is so nasty. You are not worthy of being an official either."
Zhang Zhenniang was able to say these words because she was probably taught by Shen Chen.
Zhang Zhenniang was actually in a state of confusion at this time.
"That's a good scolding. A man who takes his wife to visit a brothel is not even qualified to be a human being. How can he be qualified to be an official? If he becomes an official in the court, wouldn't the world of Long Yuan Kingdom be in chaos?" Suddenly, a cry was heard from the crowd. A man's voice.
Mu Lingwei looked for fame and found Yan Qi.
Yan Qi nodded slightly.
Mu Lingwei calmly looked away and continued: "Mrs. Shen is affectionate and righteous to Shen Yu, but as a woman, you married a husband like this. I really feel sorry for Mrs. Shen!"
Zhang Zhenniang squeezed her fingers tightly, feeling a chill in her heart. Mu Lingwei was right, she was just a joke, and it was really sad for a woman to do what she did.
Shen Chen suddenly glared at Zhang Zhenniang. If he wanted to survive, he should not be tricked by Mu Lingwei.
This woman is quite cunning and very scheming, but Zhang Zhenniang also participated in Changlefang's business for money. If Shen Yu died, she would not survive. There is also the Zhang family who live dependent on the Shen family. Even if she died , she can't talk nonsense either.
Mu Lingwei turned around slowly and saw Shen Shen's eyes clearly.
Jun Yi suddenly gained confidence and could make Shen Chen turn blue. Only Mu Lingwei could do it.
At the same time, people around her started talking again, mocking: "Ms. Zhang not only went to the brothel to play with her husband, but also took the initiative to choose a concubine from the brothel for her husband. If she gives birth to a child in the future, she probably won't dare to confirm who the biological father is. The Shen family also How could such a famous family do something so immoral?"
"Yeah, I didn't expect the bloodline of General Shen's family to be so chaotic." Someone else commented.
"The lintel of the Zhenguo General's Mansion is unattainable. I heard that Zhang's father Zhang Yong was a general under General Shen. The two families were related by marriage, so they were in-laws. However, Zhang's background was low and he had no education. , after getting married, she also fawned over her husband, and it is not surprising that she can accompany her husband to visit brothels. "
"I heard that Zhang only gave birth to a daughter after getting married. With such a father and mother, who would dare to marry her family? This couple is really a wonder in the world."
Zhang Zhenniang knelt on the ground and heard all the discussions in her ears.
It is precisely because of her low background that she is looked down upon by her husband's family, so she wants to earn more money and turn herself and her daughter into masters.
Mu Lingwei also had a calm expression. People were crowding inside and outside the yamen, and everyone seemed to be watching a joke.
Zhang Zhenniang suddenly became the heroine in the story.
Any woman who is told these dirty words in front of everyone should refute it.
Zhang Zhenniang, however, has been enduring it.
Mu Lingwei didn't sympathize with her. Even if she didn't capture those girls, she was still the culprit because Zhang Zhenniang stood aside and shared the profits for her own selfish desires.
At this time, Shen Chen was also a little anxious, fearing that Zhang Zhenniang could not resist the public opinion, so she said sternly: "Ayu just likes to drink flower wine. It was Yingniang and Boss Fang who had the princess kidnapped. They wanted to sell you, Ayu." The first night I offered money to buy the princess was unsuccessful. He was playful and we, the Shen family, would punish him severely. But the princess seriously injured A Yu and directly cut off the roots of his descendants. The princess is so cruel."
He wanted to change the subject and draw public attention to Mu Lingwei's chastity.
Little did he know that Mu Lingwei didn't take it to heart at all.
Shen Bi also said: "Princess, if you want to seek revenge, you should also seek revenge from the madam. Why did you use such a cruel method to cut off Quanzi's descendants so that he could not become a man? You humiliated him in this way, which is tantamount to wanting to If you take his life, I will make you kill him to pay for it."
"General Shen, don't be angry. I am not the only victim. Even if these girls have never met Shen Yu and Zhang Zhenniang, aren't there still those girls who were killed by them? Maybe some of them were killed by Shen Yu. "Mu Lingwei said coldly: "Killing people pays for their lives, and Shen Yu should indeed pay for their lives."
When everyone heard this, no one alive could identify Shen Yu. How could the dead be expected to speak?
She then said to the girl in purple: "Have you seen Zhang Zhenniang in the darkroom? Look carefully."
The girl in purple glanced at Mrs. Zhang, recalled for a moment, was suddenly startled, and then said: "I saw her in the darkroom. She was wearing a hat at the time and couldn't see her face clearly. However, there was a scar on her hand. They checked her one by one, and they said her appearance was worthless...and her voice, it was her."
Zhang subconsciously hid her hands in her sleeves.
Mu Lingwei stepped forward and pinched her hand, showed it in front of everyone, and said coldly: "There is indeed a scar on the back of the hand. It is initially judged that the injury was a year ago, and it was injured by an iron object. The scar is not neat.
He didn’t downplay it, he must have been seriously injured at the time!”
