After binding the loving mother system, I was so bad

The woman was cold all over, her heart almost stopped beating, and she was tongue-tied and unable to speak.

Her lips trembled as she looked in disbelief at the man and woman kneeling side by side.

The chattering of the surrounding officials and the public was like a flood, almost drowning him.

"That makes sense. I was wondering if Li Maocheng had finally been admitted to Songshan Academy, how could he be willing to give up such a good opportunity to someone else?"

"Oh, when this woman made her accusation just now, I thought it was just a fairy tale. It turned out to be a fabrication."

"Oh, it wasted my tears."

"Such a shameless, ungrateful, vicious woman should be thrown into a pig cage!"

"Patriarch Li is too kind-hearted. If it were me, I would have beaten her to death with a stick!"

"To ruin someone's future is like killing their parents. She implicated Li Maocheng for no reason. If I were Li Maocheng's biological father, do you think I would tear her apart?"

"Wasn't she invited to Yan Fusong's villa outside Beijing? How did she get here?" An official noticed something suspicious.

His colleague beside him stroked his long beard and thought for a moment: "Doesn't this just prove that her words are untrustworthy? If Yan Fusong wanted to keep a close eye on her, how could she have come so far to file a complaint?"

"That makes sense, you're absolutely right!"

"The net of heaven is vast and wide, and nothing can escape it. She must not know that there is such a big loophole in her confession!"

The woman wanted to confess everything, but the current situation was not in her favor, so why should she drag other kind-hearted people into trouble?

Along the way, I have encountered vicious people and also met kind people who lent a hand. I feel more and more how precious human hearts are.

Wu Shanchang's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down.

In order to not give the other party a chance to turn the tables, he proposed: "This woman disturbed public order, made a false report, and slandered others. She should be imprisoned and punished according to her crime!"

The woman closed her eyes in despair and kept kowtowing, mumbling mechanically: "I am not lying, they are lying! Your Majesty, please understand! Your Majesty, please understand!"

"What are you still standing there for? Do you want her to continue disturbing His Majesty?" Principal Wu urged.

"Wait!" Gu Nanxi stopped them. "The Li family, Yan Fusong, and Wu Shanchang are all accused by this woman. We cannot trust their words completely. We need to do further investigation and not make any rash judgments."

Wu Shanchang jumped up and down: "Madam Yongchang Hou, are you targeting our Songshan Academy?"

"I'm just discussing the matter at hand. What's there for me to target you for? Who doesn't have an academy?"

"You are just jealous that our Songshan Academy is more famous than yours and has more students than you!" Wu Shanchang said without thinking.

Gu Nanxi sneered: "We have Lord Cui."

Wu Shanzhang was so angry that his beard trembled: "We have more than a hundred students who pass the exam to become scholars every year."

Gu Nanxi: "Our aim is to teach people to be good people first, and then teach them knowledge. If a person does not know the past and present, he is like a horse or an ox. If a scholar does not know shame, he is like a dog or a pig in formal attire."

Principal Wu was so angry that his hair stood on end. He had forgotten what kind of occasion he was in. "Our Songshan Academy is famous throughout the Great Zhou!"

Gu Nanxi scooped a spoonful of crab stuffed with orange and said meaningfully: "I will just watch the crab with a cold eye and see how long you can run rampant!"

After saying that, Gu Nanxi stuffed the crab stuffed orange into her mouth and bit down hard.

The crabs at this time of year have no meat or roe and don’t taste very good.

"Business is more important!" The chief academician of the Imperial College couldn't stand it anymore, so he tugged at Wu Shanchang's sleeve and winked at him.

Only then did Principal Wu realize that Gu Nanxi had already led the topic far off the topic!

My emotions were also controlled by her.

Chief Wu glared at Gu Nanxi angrily and said to Chief Li, "Do you have any witnesses or evidence?"

"Yes! Even people in the next village know that she eloped!"

People from the neighboring villages were soon brought up.

"Indeed!"

"Yes, that's it!"

"When they caught the adulterer, I even followed to join in the fun!"

The woman was filled with panic. This adulterous incident was originally caused by the Li clan members. They mixed together true and false stories. How could she argue with them?

The last straw that broke the camel's back was when a man and a woman who were kneeling side by side spoke.

"Yuan Niang, since you don't want to continue living with me, I can let you go. But why do you want to wrongly accuse our Li family and Li Maocheng?"

The man lowered his head, his messy hair covering his face. Only his tightly clenched hands and the bulging veins on his arms revealed his inner unrest.

"Yuan Niang, I have no grudge against you, and I have never been anxious in the past. Why do you treat me like this? And, and my husband..."

The woman brushed her face with her long sleeves, seeming to be heartbroken.

Hearing these words, Yuan Niang could not help but stand there in a daze, and then she flew into a rage and questioned the two men at the top of her voice.

"Li Maocheng, are you still a man?! Your fame and honor were taken away by him, and now you are going to give up even your wife?!"

"And you! Lian Niang! Everyone says that you and Li Maocheng have a love that is stronger than gold, and that you are as pure as a lotus! How could you bear to let your husband suffer such a great injustice?! How could you do such a thing and lie with your eyes open?!"

Lian Niang turned her head away: "I don't know what you are talking about. I just want to live a peaceful and stable life with my husband."

Yuanniang laughed miserably, then pointed her finger at the sky and said bitterly: "If the heaven has eyes, it will send down thunder to kill these beasts!"

The setting sun covered the entire Daxiangguo Temple with a layer of gold. The gentle evening breeze could not push away the evening clouds. The head of the wild path was buried in the wild forest. After circling in the sky, the old crow cried several times around the tree!

"The evidence is irrefutable, how can you still argue?!" Principal Wu shouted harshly!

Yuanniang straightened her back and looked at death calmly: "The sky is dead, ghosts are rampant! Nothing I said was false. Who is lying, only they know it in their hearts!"

Chief Li cried out in pain, "Yuan Niang, don't be so stubborn! There are witnesses, no matter how eloquent you are, you can't change the facts. Moreover, His Majesty is very discerning, how could he be deceived by you?"

"That's right, Yuanniang, you deserve to be punished for your mistakes. We in the Li family have done our best for you."

"Hey, tell me, why did you come here? If you don't want to live in the Li family anymore, we won't force you to stay. Your elopement was the first mistake, and slandering the Li family and Li Maocheng after elopement was the second mistake. Making such a big fuss is a mistake on top of a mistake!"

"If I were you, I would have committed suicide by hitting a pillar long ago. How could I still have the dignity to live in this world?"

These words were like demons and monsters, pressing Yuanniang step by step until they forced her into a narrow corner, from which she could only escape by death.

The faint candlelight flickered in the darkness, and Yuanniang was looking forward to the last possibility of a reversal.
