The whole family died tragically? The eldest daughter is the most powerful in the capital after her

Zhang Si widened his eyes and glared at Zhang Qiu and Liu with hatred.

Zhang Qiu and Liu seemed to have expected that the others would not be able to produce any evidence, and they even showed a smug look on their faces.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Si suddenly took out a jade pendant from his arms, "Sir, this is what they left as collateral because they didn't have money to give us. My eldest brother said that although Zhang Qiu is his brother, he is treacherous and cunning, so we have to take advantage of him. I left this jade pendant here on purpose instead of pawning it at a pawnshop."

When Zhang Qiu and Liu saw the jade pendant, they were immediately panicked.

It was not for any other reason, but because the jade pendant came from the Lin family's silver shop. Moreover, the jade pendant was once Liu's personal belonging, and was taken out later to frame Lin Ruoxuan.

After all, they didn't have enough money, and the jade pendant would be useless if they kept it, so it would be better to give it away and save some money.

When Lin Shiyuan saw Liu and Zhang Qiu, his face looked extremely ugly. Now when he saw Liu's jade pendant, he was filled with coldness.

He never thought that this matter was really related to Liu.

In his impression, Liu was always gentle and considerate. How could she do such a vicious thing?

He knew the rumors in the capital city better than anyone else, except for Xuan Jie'er, who had a strong character and the support of the Gu family. If it were someone else, he might have lost his life long ago!

Thinking of this, when Lin Shiyuan looked at Liu, there was only anger in his eyes.

Especially when he saw that Liu was still trying to shirk responsibility, Lin Shiyuan couldn't help it. He rushed to Liu and slapped her in the face.

Liu was so frightened that her face turned pale. She covered her face and looked at Lin Shiyuan in disbelief.

"Master, you...you hit me?"

Lin Shiyuan said angrily: "I'm beating you, a whore. How dare you...how dare you do such a thing? Don't you know that rumors can kill people? Do you want to kill Xuan'er?"

At this point, Liu knew that no matter how much she explained, it was useless, and she collapsed to the ground for a moment.

"Master, I know I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. Please... please, for the sake of our child, leave me a way to live..."

Liu was crying and this time her crying was much more genuine than before.

However, when the usually docile Sun Rong heard her words, she rushed towards Liu like a madman.

Seeing this, the nanny beside her hurriedly stopped Sun Rong.

"Ma'am, no."

The master has already beaten Liu. If the lady goes again, I'm afraid that their Lin family will be criticized.

What's more, Mrs. Liu was the most sinister and vicious person, and the nanny couldn't guarantee whether Mrs. Liu would attack Sun Rong.

Sun Rong couldn't break free and could only stare at Liu with red eyes.

"Liu, you are such a vicious woman. Xuan'er is still a child. She is so young and now she is almost getting married. How can you hurt her like this? How can you bully a child like this?"

"You have been in the mansion for many years, and I think I have treated you well. When the master wanted to give the power of the household to one of your concubines, I did not complain at all. Even Xuan Jieer has called you little mistress for many years. How could you bear to hurt her? How could you bear to destroy her?"

"Liu, you deserve to die, you deserve to die..."

Sun Rong's questions and cries lifted the spirits of everyone in the hall.

They just saw Liu crying pitifully, but when they thought about what Liu had done, wasn't she going to ruin a good girl's family?

For a moment, those who had felt some sympathy for Liu just now were now filled with only anger.

Moreover, Lotus Sun also said that it was unexpected that the power of the Lin family, which had been in charge for many years, was in the hands of a concubine.

But Lin Ruoxuan had indeed called Liu her mistress for many years, but she never expected that Liu could actually do such a thing to her child, even though they had lived under the same roof for so many years. It was truly despicable.

"Oh, this Lin family is really messed up. Liu is really cruel. She actually wants to give the child to someone who has called her little wife for so many years."

"That's right. In my opinion, Mrs. Liu is rotten to the core. Look at the two daughters beside her. I heard that Mrs. Liu had been having an affair with the steward of the mansion behind her back. Those two children are the steward's children."

"Oh, Lord Lin dared to hand over the power of the government to her. Isn't he afraid that Liu will steal everything from the Lin family?"

Listening to the people outside the door who were listening to the trial talking openly about the Lin family's affairs that should not be told to outsiders, Song Shiyuan became so angry that his face turned pale.

He has been selectively forgetting about the fact that Liu cheated on him and brought discredit to the Lin family.

But now when he heard people talking about what happened before again, the feeling of humiliation surged into his heart again, and Lin Shiyuan wished he could slap Liu to death.

"Bitch, you whore! Not only did you bring disgrace to our Lin family, you even wanted to kill our Lin family's children. How dare you?"

When Liu heard Lin Shiyuan's words, gritting his teeth and saying that he wanted to kill her, she immediately panicked.

She grabbed Lin Shiyuan's clothes and wanted to say something to beg for mercy.

However, Lin Shiyuan kicked her away, turned around and bowed to the Jingzhao prefect.

"Sir, this man has harmed my daughter to this point. If there is no evidence, I am afraid my daughter will not be able to clear this injustice today. Please, sir, make the decision for us and severely punish Liu and Zhang Qiu!"

When Liu heard Lin Shiyuan's unhesitating request for a heavy sentence, she could no longer hold back and wanted to go forward and pull Lin Shiyuan away.

"Master, please spare my life. I have no choice but to do this. Please forgive me this time..."

She originally thought that Lin Shiyuan still had some feelings for her, but when she saw Lin Shiyuan's cold eyes, she knew she was wrong.

Now Lin Shiyuan probably only has hatred for her...

Liu felt hopeless and even though the bailiffs pulled her away, she still sat on the ground for a long time without being able to get up.

The truth had come to light, and knowing that Liu and Zhang Qiu could no longer survive, Lin Ruoxuan handed the matter over to the governor of Jingzhao to handle.

Looking at Lotus Sun's slightly pale complexion, and then at Lin Shiyuan's dark face, Lin Shiyuan shook his head.

She was worried that if she continued to get entangled with Liu, her parents would probably be seriously injured.

"Hongya, help Madam back home."

Then he turned to look at Qingji, "Qingji, please help send father back home."

Although Lin Shiyuan seemed fine now, Lin Ruoxuan could see clearly that Lin Shiyuan was angry. When the anger died down, no one could guarantee what would happen.

"Luqiao, go and get a doctor. Ask him to go to the mansion and give father and mother a thorough checkup."
