Chapter 243 My mother’s family supports me!
"Ruoyan, we are sorry for you in this matter."
It was a rare occasion for Lu Jing to feel guilty, mainly because he was too disappointed with Old Madam Lu.
My ideas have never been taken seriously by my grandmother.
It was then and it is now.
Lu Jing no longer doubted what Fang Rou said. At this moment, there was no need for her to lie.
Therefore, it was really Lu Ankang who poisoned Lu Sinian!
In order to protect him, his grandmother chose to indulge him when she saw Lu Ankang pushing his biological mother to take the blame.
Lu Sinian has a weak disease, which means he is useless to his grandmother!
She would not allow such a flawed person to inherit the Marquisate, so even though she knew that Lu Ankang had evil ambitions, she chose to turn a blind eye. She would rather save Lu Ankang than give Lu Sinian justice.
What about him?
My grandmother always puts the interests of the Marquisate first, cannot distinguish right from wrong, and acts arbitrarily... Before it was Lu Yan, now it is Lu Sinian, so will he be the next one?
If he, the Marquis, affects the development of the Marquisate, will my grandmother be able to be ruthless and remove the obstacles?
Lu Jing didn't dare to think about it, because he was unsure.
"You mean, it was grandma who harmed Yan'er back then?!" Shen Ruoyan raised her head abruptly and looked at Madam Lu. She almost choked up and said, "Grandma, why? Why on earth did this happen?!"
"why?"
At this point, Madam Lu knew that there was no room for recovery.
She sneered and said, "There's no reason. I can only blame it on his high birth. It's just fate..."
It's all fate?!
Shen Ruoyan felt disdainful in her heart. If it was really a matter of fate, Lu Yan's fate should not be like this!
The one who should really accept her fate is Madam Lu!
However, she still looked very shocked, and she cried repeatedly while holding her chest, "Yan'er respects you so much. No matter how you treat him, he always tells me that he loves grandma the most. Are you doing this to show his filial piety?!"
When Lu Yan was mentioned, Madam Lu's heart still shrank.
She once had hope for Lu Yan, but in the end, she chose to give up because of his inseparable relationship with the Shen family.
If his biological mother was just a powerless daughter of an official family, Lu Yan would definitely be the most qualified heir in Old Madam Lu's mind - but unfortunately, he is not.
"I'm sorry for him."
All that was finally exchanged for was just such a light sentence.
Shen Ruoyan felt sorry for Lu Yan!
He used to trust his relatives so much and relied on them wholeheartedly. Even after he became mute and was despised, he still looked for the reasons in himself, thinking that he had brought shame to the Marquis' Mansion, so he was treated like this.
But what did such a kind child get in return? !
One sentence?!
I’m afraid even the emperor’s words are not so precious, right?
There is no greater sorrow than a dead heart. Shen Ruoyan’s tears have dried up. Looking at Madam Lu, there is only disappointment and sadness in her eyes.
"Yan'er doesn't need your apology, you don't deserve it!"
She rarely got so angry in front of others, and she even almost collapsed.
But everyone present did not think this was abnormal. Instead, they felt admiration - even in this situation, she was still able to remain rational. She was worthy of being the legitimate daughter of the Shen family and had an extraordinary demeanor!
"I will not give up on what happened today! Since you are ruthless, don't blame me for being ungrateful!" Shen Ruoyan's gaze slowly swept across everyone. The look was so warm that Lu Jing couldn't help but take a few steps back.
He knew that this meant he would not let it go.
But now he no longer cares.
"Madam Lu, since you said that it was Yan'er's fault for his birth. Just because he came out of my belly, he has to suffer such a great injustice. Now, I will let you see whether his birth is wrong or not!"
"My Shen family will never give up on this matter!"
After Shen Ruoyan uttered these two harsh words, he left on the spot!
After she returned, she ordered people to pack up everything, including Lu Yan's belongings, and took them all away. She moved out of the Marquis' Mansion with her people that same day!
Making such a big noise is bound to attract other people's attention.
In particular, Shen Ruoyan has no intention of hiding it.
Whenever anyone came to ask about her out of curiosity, she would ask the maidservants around her to explain in detail and answer all the questions, making sure that everyone knew why she wanted to move out of the mansion with her son!
So, the next day almost everyone in Shengjing City knew that the prince of Changning Marquisate had become mute because of Madam Lu!
Moreover, Lord Lu had a mistress outside and took her back under the name of a distant relative. By some strange coincidence, he stole the poison from the old lady and killed the newborn little boy!
Each and every one of these things makes people amazed!
The storytellers kept drinking tea and their mouths were dry! But if they changed the script, they would not listen and would only listen to the stories about the Marquis of Changning's mansion!
"Absurd! Absolutely absurd!"
The matter became so serious that the emperor naturally knew about it.
Lu Jing and Shen Ruoyan, one is his savior, the other is the savior of the Queen Mother, but now it has become like this, how can he manage it? !
There were already so many troubles, and now there are these troubles. He wished he could just capture the old lady from the Lu family and execute her!
"Your Majesty, the Shen family has received the news and has rushed to Shengjing. It is said that Mr. Shen has come in person..."
Shen Mo?!
The emperor was shocked. The previous emperor had begged Shen Mo many times, but Shen Mo refused to return to the court and only wanted to stay in his own little place with books as his companions.
He did not attend Shen Ruoyan's wedding in person, but the dowry he gave to Shen Ruoyan shocked everyone and made all the noble ladies in Shengjing City envious!
Now, Shen Ruoyan has been bullied like this in her husband's family. As a grandfather, he naturally wants to seek justice for his granddaughter.
But the emperor did not expect that he would come to Shengjing in person!
This is big trouble!
Just as the emperor had guessed, Shen Mo was still on the way, but memorials impeaching Marquis Changning kept being sent to him one after another in the court.
Shen Mo's disciples are spread throughout the court. They usually keep a low profile, but when they are really needed, they will rise up and attack!
This is also the reason why the late emperor did not hesitate to give up his status as an emperor and wrote three letters to ask Shen Mo to come out of seclusion.
If it weren't for the fact that the emperor was not allowed to leave Shengjing easily, the emperor thought that the late emperor would have wanted to run and bring Shen Mo to Shengjing himself!
If it were any other time, when Shen Mo came to Beijing, he would definitely line the streets to welcome him.
But now, he went to Beijing to seek justice for his granddaughter - this giant Buddha... gave the emperor a headache!
