Use a substitute on your wedding night to scatter the ashes of your entire family

Patriarch Li's cloudy eyes shot straight at Li Shuangwan: "Li Shuangyan, although you are a princess, you are still just a junior in front of this old man. You have no right to interrupt me!"

"Li Huaiying, Zhu, this is how you educate your children!"

Li Huaiying didn't say anything.

Li Yuanqiao did not dare to talk back, but glared at Patriarch Li angrily.

But Zhu Anhe said: "Old Patriarch, what Yanyan said is not without reason. Although I cannot contradict you, my elder, when you reprimand me like this, this is a serious crime of the Fang family deceiving the emperor. We cannot just let this go by and let the matter go!"

"You, you are stubborn and recalcitrant!" the old patriarch said angrily, "You have disgraced the Li family! You are disgraced, Li Huaiying, your father has been dead for more than ten years!"

What's the intention behind exposing this matter in front of all the people in Shengjing?

Does he want Li Qihong to turn into a green-haired turtle underground?

I still can’t bear to see the Li family’s lives getting better day by day!

Li Shuangwan just glanced at the old patriarch indifferently.

Fang, who had just turned pale because of killing his wife, relaxed when he heard this. A smug sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he looked at Li Shuangwan and others provocatively.

That day, in Songhe Hall, she dared to admit it even though she knew that the Li clan elders would never agree.

They can't afford to lose that person!

Li Huaiying had to swallow this bitter pill even if it meant losing his teeth and eating blood.

Bai Hongxian got a headache when he heard them say this.

He looked at the dark crowd outside and waved to the bailiff.

Two bailiffs came forward and tried to close the door of the court.

Seeing this, Li Huaiying shouted, "I want to see who dares to close this door today!"

Bai Hongxian's forehead was throbbing with veins. He thought that he had not been blessed this year. He could only say, "Duke, the first case took two or three hours to try. Aren't you tired?"

"You are not tired, but the elders of the tribe are also tired."

"Everyone is thirsty and hungry. How about we suspend the trial first and resume it after lunch?" Bai Hongxian almost knelt down to Li Huaiying.

Li Huaiying snorted coldly.

Zhu Anhe asked her nanny to bring in two food boxes.

Dry food and water are all ready.

Li Huaiying pointed at the food box and said, "Master Bai, I am a rough man. When I am on the march or fighting, I just eat a few bites when I am hungry. You eat yours, and we will wait here for you to finish your meal."

Bai Hongxian really wanted to curse.

He stood up, took two quick steps to Li Huaiying's side, and lowered his voice to persuade him.

"My Lord, as the saying goes, family disgrace should not be made public. So many people are watching, and the old general has been dead for so many years. Why are you still holding on to this matter? Can the old general rest in peace in his grave?"

"Left and right, Fang has committed a heinous crime of murder. The evidence is irrefutable. The head on her neck won't stay for many days."

"Why do you insist on this? Even if Fang is convicted in the end, what will happen? Isn't the Duke's Mansion still losing face?"

"Besides, this is also related to your Majesty's reputation. If you win the lawsuit, where will the royal family's reputation be?"

"My Lord, please listen to my advice. It is better to make a big deal out of a small matter or a small matter out of nothing."

"As for the second branch of the Li family, you can ask the head of the Li family to come forward and separate the two families, and from then on, they can keep their distance from each other. Why do you have to make it known to everyone in the city?"

Li Huaiying chuckled, "Master Bai, no matter how much you talk about this matter, I, Li Huaiying, will not be shaken in the slightest. If I had to save face, I would not have beaten the drum in your Jingzhao government office this morning."

"If my father knew this, he would not want to be treated like a fool again!"

Bai Hongxian felt so miserable, he wished Li Huaiying hadn't come to beat the drum.

After hearing what Bai Hongxian said, Li Shuangwan really wanted to sneer at his head.

All of those present wanted to keep the peace, because Emperor Jingzhang had issued an edict to personally commend Fang and reward him with a dragon-headed cane.

Now that Emperor Jingzhang is seriously ill, no one wants him to bear the stigma of being a poor judge of people before he dies.

But in this matter, my grandfather is so innocent!

Her father, who had regarded the thief as his mother for more than 40 years, gave all the good things to the second wife and Fang. How innocent was he!

Li Huaiyi, what qualifications does he have to have the surname Li!

Li Shuangwan's face was solemn: "Master Bai, white is white, black is black. This world has not reached the point where black and white are reversed and right and wrong are not distinguished!"

"If Your Majesty knew that he was deceived by such a traitor, he would naturally agree to make things clear instead of being deceived all the time!"

"If my grandfather knew about this in the afterlife, he would definitely support what my father did today."

Bai Hongxian opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

At first the crowd thought that Li Huaiying was a son, but he was suing his mother, which was a heinous crime and he should be struck by lightning. But then they saw a lot of evidence and looked at Fang's face.

It turned out that Fang was the murderer of the old general's original wife.

How vicious!

Add to that the ambiguous words of Lord Bai and the Li clan leader, and it is clear that they are trying to cover up the scandal with a fig leaf and try to deceive themselves.

Someone immediately shouted, "Deceiving the emperor is a serious crime, how can it be a trivial matter? Why is there no trial?"

"Yes, we must hold a trial, a public trial. We must all see how Madam Fang, the second wife who was deeply in love with the old general, deceived the world and the emperor!"

"Master Bai, you must not tolerate such evil people. We ordinary people are watching!"

"Why do we need to suspend it, Lord Bai? We don't agree!"

Li Shuangwan knew that the person who called out at the beginning was arranged by Xing Yan.

Bai Hongxian really wished that a lightning would strike at this moment and split this court in two.

"Hear, openly, and now! Lord Zhenguo, you must present all your grievances and evidence. No one is allowed to leave until the case is finished today!"

Li Huaiying rarely bowed to Bai Hongxian and said, "Master Bai is indeed worthy of being the father and mother official of Shengjing City."

Bai Hongxian: I, the parent official, am your uncle!

"Come here, prepare dry food, water, steamed buns, and dumplings, and send them to the people."

Bai Hongxian's face was extremely dark. He had been the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture for more than ten years, but he had never tried a case while eating.

From the kitchen of Jingzhao Prefecture Yamen, trays of steamed buns were brought out.

Amid the curling white smoke, the trial continued.

Li Huaiying said in a loud voice: "I, Li Huaiying, am now suing Fang for confusing my Li family's bloodline and falsely claiming the child I had with Lei Zhengliang as my Li family's heir."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar inside and outside the court.

Some people even whispered, "How is this possible? We all know the Second Master of the Li Family. He is three points similar to the Duke of Zhenguo, especially the eyes and nose. If they are not from the same lineage, how can they be so similar?"

"Don't talk too much, just listen to what the Duke has to say."
