Shengjing Noble

Chapter 136: Crime and Evil

The other two also followed suit and praised.

"I've always seen this girl as a beauty since she was young, and now she's even more graceful."

"Your second grandfather can even use idioms, which shows that Wanjun's daughter is getting more and more beautiful."

……

Lu Wanjun was so delighted by the praise from several people that she couldn't stop smiling. She hurried forward and took Su Lanyin in her hands, her face full of pride and complacency.

"No, no, uncles, please don't praise her too much."

"We are telling the truth! You gave birth to three sons and one daughter for our Su family. You are the best in everything. No one can compare to you in terms of appearance, talent, and character."

What Mr. Su said was almost a slap in the face to Liu Ruyan and her two children.

The three of them were so angry that they gnashed their teeth.

At this point, Lu Wanjun looked sad and sighed, "It's a pity that the boss is unable to come and greet the three of you."

Mr. Su raised his voice and asked knowingly, "What about the third brother?"

"Brother Yun, he..." Lu Wanjun looked at Su Yongcheng awkwardly, but was glared at by him.

The look was full of threats, as if she would be doomed if she dared to tell the truth.

However, Su Lanyin would naturally not let her mother say it, as the three elders would think that she was making a malicious complaint.

But just because Lu Wanjun didn't say anything doesn't mean that this ten-year-old child didn't open her mouth.

She is an innocent little girl, so it is understandable that she said something wrong, right?

So she immediately said, "My third brother was beaten by my father and couldn't get out of bed!"

"What!" Although Mr. Su knew it long ago, he was still surprised when he heard her say it.

Su Yongcheng's eyes were full of panic, and he immediately stood up and argued: "Why are you talking nonsense again, girl? Aunt Lu, why don't you take care of it quickly?"

Lu Wanjun pretended to say, "Oh, Lanyin, please stop talking. These are just family matters. How can we make our guests worry?"

Although it was meant to stop him, this statement implicitly acknowledged the fact that Su Yongcheng had injured Su Shengyun.

Mr. Su was immediately furious: "Su Yongcheng, what on earth is going on?"

"This... there is a misunderstanding..." Su Yongcheng looked embarrassed and stumbled over what he was saying.

Su Lanyin simply explained the whole process in brief.

"Su Yaozu injured the grandson of the general who guards the country. Auntie not only did not stop him but also insulted the general's daughter-in-law. Daddy not only did not punish them, but blamed me and my third brother for not helping them commit the crime, so he beat my third brother so hard that he couldn't get out of bed!"

"Oh, right! And the eldest lady's nephew-in-law pushed the third brother down, causing his right hand to be fractured. The eldest brother was poisoned when he dueled with this man, causing him to go blind and his tendons to be broken!"

She roared very loudly. Su Yongcheng wanted to rush over to stop her but Lu Wanjun held him tightly, leaving him no chance.

The three elders of the Su family widened their eyes in surprise when they heard this.

After all, these words contain a huge amount of information, which makes people terrified when they think about it carefully.

I didn't check it carefully back then, but now that Mr. Su is here, I must not let it go easily.

This is exactly the effect Su Lanyin wanted.

As expected, Mr. Su slammed the table and shouted, "Su Yongcheng, call your mother here. You and your mother, as well as you, must explain to me how you came back."

He did not forget to point at Liu Ruyan, which meant he was going to get to the bottom of the matter.

Before Su Yongcheng could speak, Su Lanxin sneered disdainfully: "Tsk, who do you think you are? Do you think you are worthy of my parents and grandmother's explanation? An old man from the countryside, do you really think you are an elder? You are just a poor guy who comes to my house to beg for money..."

"Snapped!"

A loud and crisp slapping sound suddenly rang out, and everyone was surprised, even Su Lanxin was stunned on the spot.

She covered her face and looked at Su Yongcheng in disbelief, tears instantly filling her eyes: "Father, you hit me?"

Su Yongcheng was almost pissed off by her: "You...how can you, a bastard, talk to your elders like that? Get down on your knees and kowtow to apologize!"

Su Lanxin stiffened her neck and shouted, "Why should I kneel down and apologize to them? Do they deserve it?"

"You! I'll beat you to death!"

Seeing that Su Yongcheng was about to raise his hand again, Liu Ruyan hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed his arm, and cried to stop him.

"Master, why did you hit Lan Xin? She was just speaking up for you..."

"Humph!"

Su Lanxin glared at him fiercely, turned around and ran out of the reception room. Seeing this, Liu Ruyan quickly chased after her.

Su Shenghao stood there and opened his mouth, but finally decided to lower his head and remain silent, looking as if it had nothing to do with him, without any worry at all.

Su Yongcheng's face turned pale, and he quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to apologize: "Uncle, please don't argue with her because she is still young and ignorant!"

The other two snorted coldly and turned their heads away, looking really angry.

Su Lao asked in a deep voice: "No matter how presumptuous she is, let me ask you, when Shengyan got into trouble, did you investigate it thoroughly?"

"This...I..." He stammered and couldn't answer.

Su Lanyin remembered that she was still young and ignorant at that time, while Lu Wanjun was immersed in grief and unable to extricate herself. Even if she cheered up and wanted to investigate, as a woman and a concubine, no one would help her.

Only Su Yongcheng has the ability to investigate the matter thoroughly and take revenge for his elder brother.

However, as a father, he did nothing. After bringing his eldest brother home, he abandoned him in Langya Pavilion and ignored him.

Now that I think about it, my brother's poisoning was extremely strange. As long as we investigate carefully, we will definitely find clues and bring the murderer to justice.

It’s a pity that she was reborn too late, otherwise she would never let her elder brother suffer so many years in vain.

Seeing that Su Yongcheng couldn't answer, Old Su knew what was going on and his eyes were full of disappointment.

He asked again with a puzzled look on his face: "You knew that Yun Ge'er was going to take the imperial examination, so why did you treat him so cruelly? Su Yaozu was spoiled by your mother and became wild and domineering. He has no rules at all. He will be a disaster when he grows up. How could you hurt your most promising son for him?"

Yes, any normal person would not do this, but Su Yongcheng's brain seemed to have been kicked by a donkey, and he made such a decision that is worse than that of an animal.

He lowered his head and explained hesitantly: "The situation was too chaotic at the time, and I didn't control my emotions well..."

Su Lao stared at him intently: "Okay, let's not talk about whether you did it on purpose. Let me ask you again, where is Ming Ge'er?"

Now it was Su Yongcheng's turn to be right. He immediately straightened his back and said, "Uncle, it's better if you don't mention it. If you mention this little bastard, I will want to beat him to death!"

Su Lao asked coldly: "Why?"

"You don't know, he actually got into the bad habit of gambling! How can I tolerate this? To be honest, the reason why my face is like this is because I went to the casino to look for him!"

Mr. Su looked at Lu Wanjun and asked, "Is what he said true?"
