Leng Xian and the others thought so.
However, they forgot that from the time Leng Yiyang was born until today, has he ever considered Leng Rongyue as his sister?
When has he ever respected Leng Rongyue, his eldest sister?
When has he ever called Leng Rongyue, his eldest sister, "sister"?
On the contrary, in front of Leng Rongyue, Leng Yiyang is always arrogant and domineering;
Always speaking ill of each other;
Always a spoiled scoundrel.
Leng Yiyang's greatest pleasure is to rack his brains and find all kinds of ways to bully Leng Rongyue, his eldest sister!
To Leng Rongyue, Leng Yiyang was more like the son of his enemy than his half-brother.
He is also the enemy who has bullied me for many years!
The prefect Zheng Tong, who was sitting firmly behind the desk, also looked at the Anguo family standing there, especially at the graceful figure standing among the people of the Anguo family.
Zheng Tong knew that it was Leng Rongyue, the only legitimate daughter of Marquis Qinxing's family and the only granddaughter of Duke Anguo Fu Peng.
Now, almost all the people in the Marquis Qinxing’s Mansion have been convicted, and among them, only Leng Rongyue, the master of the Marquis Qinxing’s Mansion, is not among the criminals.
That's because she is the victim, she is the sufferer, or she is also the plaintiff.
Although Leng Rongyue's name was not written on the plaintiff's complaint sent by the Duke of Anguo's Mansion;
However, as the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, Zheng Tong knew it very well.
Leng Rongyue's name was not written on it because the Anguo Mansion wanted to protect Leng Rongyue.
The case files must be stored in the government treasury for permanent archiving.
Leng Rongyue is just an unmarried girl who has not yet reached the age of marriage.
Those who are being tried here today, regardless of what crime they have committed, are all Leng Rongyue's elders and her younger siblings in terms of their identities.
The Anguo Mansion was worried that if Leng Rongyue's name appeared as one of the plaintiffs in the lawsuit, she might be branded as an unfilial person and a person who was at odds with her siblings.
Since ancient times, the words "virtuous" and "filial" have been as big as the sky and as heavy as a mountain.
Especially for a young woman, a stain on her reputation can have a profound impact on her life.
Therefore, Leng Rongyue's name did not appear on the petition;
In fact, Leng Rongyue didn't have to show up at today's public trial.
But she came today.
Her coming is a clear declaration—
She, Leng Rongyue, was not afraid of the possible reputation of being unfilial;
Don't be afraid of the possible discord with half-siblings, or the bad reputation of not caring for them.
At the same time, Leng Rongyue also expressed her own attitude——
She had the courage to face the accusations that the world might have of her being unfilial and unvirtuous;
She wanted to face her mother's murderer in person;
She wanted to come personally to redress her mother's grievances;
She wanted to avenge her mother personally.
She just wanted to see with her own eyes that the murderer of her mother got the punishment he deserved.
The Duke of Anguo's Mansion had submitted a complaint to the Shuntian Prefecture Yamen, and the grievances and demands were clearly stated in the petition.
Moreover, the case was true, with witnesses and evidence, and the criminal had confessed and signed in court, so there was no need for the plaintiff and the defendant to confront each other in court;
Therefore, from the beginning of the interrogation to the end of the sentencing, no one in the Anguo Mansion needed to say a word.
However, the prisoner who was sentenced to death was unwilling to accept it;
Faced with imminent death, they still make a futile last struggle.
They tried to get a ray of hope from the poor orphan girl.
This should be the last ugly appearance they leave in this world.
Prefect Zheng Tong didn't want Leng Xian, old Yin, Leng Yixing, Leng Yiyang and others to harass the Anguo family and Leng Rongyue again.
Zheng Tong wanted to speak up to stop it.
But when he accidentally looked at the screen on one side of the lobby, he saw Prince Yu Xiao Jingyu, who was supposed to be sitting behind the screen, but was standing outside the screen with his hands behind his back.
When the prefect Zheng Tong looked over, Xiao Jingyu shook his head slightly at Zheng Tong.
Zheng Tong saw His Royal Highness Prince Yu shaking his head at him, and for a moment he didn't know what Xiao Jingyu meant by shaking his head.
Zheng Tong was in a trance for a moment, and he suddenly understood...
Leng Xian in the hall was howling at Leng Rongyue, saying he was begging for mercy, but his words were more about using the blood relationship between father and daughter and the crime of being unfilial to force Leng Rongyue;
Old Yin then cried out to Leng Rongyue for mercy, also trying to use blood ties to escape punishment;
Then there will be Leng Yixing and Leng Yiyang.
Since they had already opened their mouths to confess their crimes and beg for mercy from Leng Rongyue, even if Leng Rongyue did not utter a word from beginning to end, in the eyes and hearts of everyone present today, they would still more or less leave the impression of being unvirtuous, unfilial, cold-blooded and heartless.
Perhaps for a long time to come, when people talk about this old case, there will still be criticisms that Leng Rongyue is unvirtuous, unfilial, cold-blooded and heartless.
After all, although Leng Rongyue was seeking revenge for her mother, she faced several enemies who killed her mother...including her biological father and grandmother.
Also convicted were Leng Rongyue's half sister and half brother.
Especially as Leng Rongyue is the future Princess Yu who is engaged to His Royal Highness Prince Yu, her reputation is so important!
At this time, His Royal Highness Prince Yu shook his head...
This is to prevent me from stepping forward to stop Leng Xian and his group from shamelessly harassing him...
Perhaps His Royal Highness Prince Yu has his own intentions.
Although Zheng Tong had not yet fully understood the full meaning of His Royal Highness Prince Yu shaking his head, Zheng Tong thought that he had just wanted to stop Leng Xian and Old Yin from harassing Leng Rongyue.
Since His Royal Highness Prince Yu shook his head at me, it would be right for me to do nothing.
So, the prefect Zheng Tong shut up and just watched quietly...
