C136 Illness

The Yan family's interrogation started before Su Zixuan could wait too long. This time, Chu Yixuan openly went up to the court, but the crown prince didn't show up.

After interrogating all the members of the Yan family, they didn't manage to find out anything about the private salt at all. Instead, they found out a bunch of trivial things.

When the court case was officially opened, Ma Zi Ming thought for a while and decided to push the Su family to the side. Even if there was doubt about the handwriting and Wu Guangcai's confession, he couldn't rule out the possibility of the Su family committing a crime.

However, like this, the jailers who were summoned by Chu Yixuan became even more attentive towards the Su Clan. Besides staying in the same place, they would give anything else they wanted.

Ma Ziming felt that it would be good for the Su Clan and the Yan Clan to be together in a confrontation at such a crucial moment.

However, he did not expect that there were some people in the court who would disregard discipline and become a concubine.

"No one from the Su Clan is as good as I thought. I've done everything I could to falsify their loyalty. My Dong Clan has sacrificed itself for the Da Qi Kingdom, and the Shardbearer Kingdom has chosen His Majesty as their leader. They are all unparalleled loyal people."

Mrs Dong's words were not completely vulgar, but the way she used her hands and feet was really unbearable to look at.

Ever since Yao An had entered the door, that meticulously sculpted aura had shaken Madam Dong to the point that she didn't even dare to call her daughter-in-law for a short period of time.

Since Yao Anhui had her back against the Yao family, Mrs Dong didn't dare to set a rule for her. However, as her mother-in-law, she couldn't just let them do as they pleased. As a result, after suddenly replenishing her books for a period of time, she was able to make some progress and use some idioms. However, her temperament had yet to improve.

"As expected, none of the Su Clan's girls are good. They're all too young, yet they're so vile and cruel. Seeing that they can't marry my son, they thought of such a malicious method to harm us, and …"

"Silence!" Ma Zi Ming couldn't stand it any longer either. He didn't even know which other clan's woman was as savage as she was in the entire capital.

Mrs Dong was so frightened that she trembled, and was finally stopped by the Shardbearer and Yan Yu Qi.

"Perpetrators will be ordered, now Wu Guangcai is asking for your Yan Clan to instigate them to threaten the sale of private salt, you all can plead guilty."

Even though Yan Hao was sweating profusely, he was still quick to respond, "Of course not."

"To reply Sir, my Yan Clan only said that we would have thirteen salt banks as dowry, and even more so, we had no connection at all when the engagement was annulled."

"This is truly unfair. My Yan family was dragged into such a big case for no reason. What a huge injustice!" "Regardless of whether it was true or false, the framing look on the face of Shardbearer Yan Hao and the grievances in his words were sufficient." "Who knows, someone might be deliberately framing our Yan Clan to avenge his personal grudges."

Only the Su Clan members were present, and only the Su Clan was involved with Wu Guangcai. It went without saying just who the target of this personal grudge was.

From time to time, Yan Yuqi would glance at Su Zixuan, feeling that her aura was even more impressive than before she left the capital.

"Why don't you tell me what kind of personal grudge it is?" Although Ma Zi Ming had also heard from his family about this incident, he still had to ask them in detail before going up to the court.

Yan Hao looked at Su Qian Shan and Su Zixuan before he spoke in a measured tone, "Earlier, the Su family promised the dowry for the actions of thirteen salt and my Yan family only managed to marry them. But who would've thought that the Su family's woman would be so jealous that she eventually broke the engagement?"

"She resented my love!" Yan Yuqi interrupted, "Resentment that I like Tzu'er, her little sister, she's the one who has hatred in her heart and wants revenge. This must be their plot with Wu Guangcai to frame our Yan family!"

He looked at Su Zixuan and saw that her eyes were filled with contempt. He felt that what she said was too shameful, but for the current situation, even if it was shameful, he could only say it this way.

"Please enlighten me, Sir!" After she said that, she heavily hit the ground. Finally, she wobbled as she was helped up by Su Xue Ming.

Chu Yixuan had previously been rebuked by the emperor for causing trouble in the court, so he didn't say anything this time. He only wore a smile on his face as he watched, but when he heard Yan Yu Qi's words, his gaze turned deep as he scanned Yan Yu Qi and Su Zixuan.

He still had that smile on his face, but he almost couldn't suppress the unhappiness in his heart.

"Yanlang." Tears welled up in Su Xue's eyes. "It's good that sister has grudges in her heart. Why did you do such a thing?" She sobbed softly at Su Zixuan, looking as if she had been broken from the bottom of her heart.

Su Zixuan, do you have something to say?" Ma Zi Ming felt a headache coming on. Even though it was a love affair between a child and a girl, he still felt embarrassed when he spoke of it in court. Moreover, Su Zixuan's previous performance had made him feel that reality wasn't as they had said. Such a woman, even if she were to frame someone, she would still do something beyond reprimand.

"Lord, please consider the fact that my daughter was so easily bewitched by her father that she begged him to make the marriage contract, but when I finally understood that this person was not a good person, my rejection of the marriage was even more so because Yan Yuqi was wandering around among the flowers and lived in Sweet Water Lane. This humble girl is still afraid of getting sick." Su Zixuan's expression didn't change, as if she didn't know what bold words she had said.

The people in the hall all held their laughter. Flower Willows were quite common, and some young masters and masters who had been wandering around had gotten sick, but they didn't dare to say it out loud. Not to mention that Su Zixuan was a girl, yet she could say such words in front of such a large crowd.

Hearing that, Su Xue Ming also quietly moved an inch away from Yan Yu Qi. After carefully thinking back to what was wrong with him, Yao An Hua felt disgusted and directly kneeled away.

As a result of this, Yan Yu Qi's face turned red from embarrassment, and he began to recite "nonsense, what an insult", but the more he spoke, the more ashamed he felt.

Chu Yixuan's previous unhappiness had finally been dispelled by these words.

Su Zixuan still didn't know that she had luckily escaped danger, but she still continued to speak, "My Su Family has been imprisoned for nearly a month. If it was really us who set you up, why would we find fault with ourselves? Could it be that this prison is very good?"
