Just because she looks weak doesn't mean she's easy to bully.
Chapter 45 Follow-up
There is one thing that has not been mentioned during this public trial of this case, mainly because it cannot be disclosed to the outside world.
That is the identity of the bandit leader as a foreigner. At the beginning, it was Cheng Jinchu who brought the armor to the princess, and the princess secretly brought it to the emperor to see. This is why the emperor attached great importance to this matter. On the one hand, he asked his subordinates to find someone to investigate, and on the other hand, he immediately mobilized a rare group of people to personally investigate.
Therefore, when the investigation showed that the emperor had something to do with the Liu County incident, regardless of whether he knew the identity of the bandit leader or not, he would deal with it according to what he knew.
In fact, those people could have just chosen to die, but in the end their properties were confiscated, they were exiled and reduced to slavery. Three generations were not allowed to stand up, and the main offender still had to die.
Of course, this news was only released half a month after the trial. While everyone felt happy, they also felt that some people’s sentences were too severe.
It is normal for everyone to think this way. After all, the identity of the bandits is public knowledge. What's more, they don't know that the emperor has long wanted to remove some people. He just took this opportunity to reshuffle the court and use this incident to warn other officials to do their own job well and be a conscientious official.
Back to this case, regarding the truth or falsehood, even though Manager Mo had his face disfigured, those people still recognized him at a glance. The second in command of the bandits was an insider, but he didn't say anything before because Lord Chang deliberately didn't ask him, and he wouldn't speak unless Lord Chang asked a question.
As for why the second-in-command of the bandits betrayed his eldest brother and told the truth, it was because Cheng Jinchu told him a truth that crushed him.
In the end, Qian Fa and his son, Huang Yuanshan, and Manager Mo’s youngest son naturally could not escape beheading.
Mo Ling was not among them. The main reason was that Manager Mo's youngest son took all the responsibility on himself and Manager Mo. He said that Mo Ling had no idea that she was not a fake Miss Shen. She had been deceived by them since she was a child and thought she was the real one.
I can't help but be moved. Manager Mo's youngest son is afraid of death, but for Mo Ling, he was brave for once.
Finally, considering that Mo Ling herself didn't know about it and that the case had involved many people, Cheng Jinchu forgave her on the spot and expressed his understanding of her being deceived.
So, Mo Ling became the only one in their group who was let go.
Of course, Cheng Jinchu is not a saint. She has been back in the Shen Mansion for some time and has inquired about many things and done some investigations on her own.
Cheng Jinchu will definitely not let Mo Ling go so easily, because there is still value left in her that has not been squeezed out. Cheng Jinchu has not yet found out her secrets and the people behind her!
The most important thing is that Cheng Jinchu knows that Mo Ling has nowhere to go now, and she will definitely try her best to return to the Shen Mansion. Although, Cheng Jinchu still doesn't know why Mo Ling must go to the Shen Mansion even if she is like this.
So, when following Shen Yun back, Cheng Jinchu deliberately said that he wanted to buy something and ran to the downtown area to provide Mo Ling with this opportunity.
After Mo Ling came out, she followed Cheng Jinchu and the others in their carriage. She didn't know what was wrong, but she felt that this shouldn't be the ending for her. She should be the victorious Miss Shen. Moreover, she had a very strong feeling that she must return to the Shen Mansion.
Fortunately, the carriages in the city moved slowly, so she was able to keep up. Unexpectedly, the carriage went to the downtown area. Mo Ling suddenly came up with a plan.
She rushed out and knelt in front of Cheng Jinchu who was about to get off the carriage.
"Miss Shen, I'm sorry, Miss Shen, for what I did, I was really deceived. Everyone around me told me that I was the daughter of the Shen family, so I really didn't know that they were my grandfather and father, and I didn't know that everything was arranged by my grandfather and father. Although I didn't know, I also hurt you. They did something wrong, I can't deny it. We were all wrong, Miss Shen, please let me work like a cow and a horse by your side to atone for my sins!"
As she spoke, Mo Ling began to kowtow on the ground.
Mo Ling had a good idea. The case was tried publicly today, and what happened in the court would soon spread throughout Cangzhou City. By then, many people would point fingers at her, which would surely cause some bad consequences for her in the future. She had to restore her reputation.
Before, Mo Ling had spread the story of the vicious woman she wrote, and it was known to everyone. Now, the situation has been reversed, and she is the fake one. Although she does not have to die, she will not be able to live with the pointing and criticizing of these people in the future. Cheng Jinchu looked at Mo Ling's red forehead, sighed, got off the carriage, and personally helped her up.
Shen Yun had already got off the carriage before Mo Ling rushed out. He looked at Mo Ling who was kneeling on the ground with complicated eyes.
"Jin Yi~"
Shen Yun opened his mouth. Cheng Jinchu looked at Shen Yun with a smile. She was afraid that Shen Yun would suddenly do something stupid, so she didn't intend to give Shen Yun a chance to speak.
Cheng Jinchu walked to Shen Yun and pulled his arm.
"Daddy~"
The word "Daddy" sounded so sweet when Cheng Jinchu called her. She had been practicing this skill for a long time recently. She seriously summarized that the tone of voice must not be flat, and she must have a sweet smile when speaking, and the sound must make several turns in her mouth.
Shen Yun was unable to adapt for a moment and his body became a little stiff.
"Dad~ Actually, I've thought about it carefully. This little sister has been living a lie since she was a child. She has always taken lies as the truth. When I came back, she didn't know the truth, so she naturally thought I was pretending to be her. It's normal for her to be angry, and it's also normal for her to do things that are not nice to me."
Cheng Jinchu doesn't have the habit of calling herself a younger sister. When she used to watch TV dramas, those green tea girls liked to recognize sisters everywhere, but she couldn't do that. She couldn't stand it. She thought that calling herself a younger sister was a way of pretending to be weak. She didn't want to, and she wasn't weak. She just wanted to let those people know that a sister is a sister!
Shen Yuncai made a fool of himself for not recognizing his own daughter, so now he must present himself as a kind father when he is outside.
So, Shen Yun touched Cheng Jinchu's head with a smile, his tone full of doting.
"My family is the kindest!"
Cheng Jinchu: ==(●???● |||)
God knows when Shen Yun touched her head, Cheng Jinchu's hairs stood up all over her body. Oh my god ~ she, she, she, really couldn't bear it, it was so uncomfortable, but she had to endure it.
In an instant, Cheng Jinchu felt that this was a task. She was acting every day, which made her uncomfortable. She lived in a lie every day. She was too pitiful.
Thinking of this, her eyes began to turn red. This was already a downtown area with a lot of people. Now they were all gathered here to watch the fun. The beauty's eyes were red, and she felt distressed for them. Oh my, from this sight, it was clear that this little girl had suffered a lot of grievances recently.
"Miss Mo, your biological father is the youngest son of Manager Mo, so, can I call you Miss Mo?"
Cheng Jinchu did it on purpose. Mo Ling had always called herself Shen Taohua before. Although Cheng Jinchu didn't like this name, Taohua was the nickname given to her step-sister's grandmother. Why should she give it to this person?
Although Mo Ling was stunned, she still nodded at Cheng Jinchu.
"This matter is over today. I know that you are a kind-hearted girl and you sincerely repent for what you did before. I said, I don't care about it anymore. You don't have any family now, so how about this? I will give you fifty taels of silver. At least you will have some money to support yourself wherever you go!"
Although Cheng Jinchu said this, she knew that Mo Ling would not take the money, so she was not saying this nonsense. She was saying this to establish the image of herself, a delicate rich girl, as a kind and sensible person.
After all, this kind of character is deeply rooted in people's hearts. If it is reported that she is good at fighting and hurts people, the first reaction of others will be, impossible! Absolutely impossible!
Oh, those "victims" won't know who to turn to for justice! (*^w^*)
