After the vicious adoptive mother gave up, the scumbag children regretted it

Chapter 329 Destroyed the Jade Pendant

For the sake of Shen Nanzhi's face, Imperial Envoy Zhou explained the pros and cons of the matter to Yang Lingzhao in detail, and he really spoke with all his heart.

His words are more effective than those of Magistrate Yang. Their own children dare to act naughty to their parents, but they dare not question it to outsiders. There is a bit of bullying in people's bones.

Shen Nanzhi nodded: "Master Zhou is absolutely right, Yang Lingzhao, for the sake of fame and wealth, you were deceived by a woman and murdered your own brother. Don't you repent?"

"I, I was deceived? No, there must be something wrong."

Prefect Yang only heard her talking about murdering his eldest brother. He looked at the faces of the eldest and second oldest brothers. They were both very calm, as if they had known about it for a long time. He was shocked. It turned out that he was the only one who was kept in the dark?

Madam Yang screamed, "What? You dare to murder your elder brother? Do you still have any brotherly love?"

Yang Lingzhao came back to his senses: "No, I just want you to see how good I am. Big brother is just sick, he won't die. How could I take his life?"

Yang Lingyuan was helpless: "Do you believe what you said? You didn't let me die, but let me stay in bed and lose my vitality. Look at me, I have lost dozens of pounds and am just a skeleton. How can you bear it?"

Shen Nanzhi added, "Yeah, bedridden? That's easy to say. Young Master Yang was originally full of energy and vigor. He was healthy and studying, filial to his parents, accompanied his wife, and raised his son. He was happy and content.

But you poisoned him and he is now unable to take care of himself. He could have lived to be 88, but now he is too weak to be saved in middle age.

Maybe you don't want to take his life, but you want him to live a miserable life. His wife and children are worried and tormented, and his parents are also restless day and night, fearful and heartbroken.

You have never been a father, so you don't understand the worry that parents have for their children. Yang Lingzhao, you really disappoint everyone."

Yu started to cry: "Mr. Shen is so right. I haven't had a good night's sleep these days. I'm afraid that one day I'll wake up and my husband will be gone. How will we, an orphan and a widow, survive?"

Madam Yang was also in tears: "I have loved you the most since I was a child, but I didn't expect you to be so cold-blooded and murder your own eldest brother..."

"You love me the most? Don't say that. You love me so much that you don't let me go to the capital to study. Why don't I have what my elder and second brothers have?"

Yang Lingzhao expressed his anger. Prefect Yang shook his head and said, "You hate your parents because of this? Second brother, tell him why you two are not in the capital but go home instead?"

Yang Lingyu smiled bitterly: "Third brother is really naive. Do you think it is so easy to stay in the capital? We are of low status, and there are sons of dignitaries everywhere. I accidentally offended a nobleman, and they targeted me everywhere. My eldest brother and I have endured for many years and have had enough of the grievances.

My elder brother couldn't bear to see me being bullied by them, so he chose to go home. But you envy this kind of life. Fine, then father will send him to the capital to let him have a taste of being bullied."

Shen Nanzhi was surprised. Yang Lingyu would actually be bullied?

But if you think about it, it is understandable. After all, there are countless high-ranking officials and nobles under the feet of the emperor. The son of a prefect is not even worthy of being someone else's tutor.

Yang Lingzhao didn't expect this to happen, and said stubbornly: "That's because you are too competitive and don't know how to behave, so you are bullied."

Yang Lingyu was speechless: "You mean you are amazing, you are better than me, you are more tactful than me, you are smarter than me, you can stand out and gain a foothold in the capital where there are so many talented people.

That's fine, I am the second brother who is useless, father, send the third brother to the capital to study, I will introduce him to a good teacher. "

"I don't want it. I just want Lin to survive."

Prefect Yang was disappointed. "Third brother, you have been well-behaved since childhood, why are you so stubborn about this matter?"

Shen Nanzhi asked: "Did Lin threaten you?"

Yang Lingzhao's eyes flickered and he remained silent.

It’s true. I have to say, the person who knows you best may not be your friend, but may very well be your opponent.

Madam Yang was furious: "What did she threaten you with? What leverage do you have in her hands? This bitch, she's still acting like a demon when she's about to die. Someone, go and drag her over here. I want to see how brave she is to lie to my son. If you still threaten her, I'll cut off her tongue."

Shen Nanzhi winked at Zhou Qinchai and said, "You guys take care of the household chores. We'll leave first. I'm leaving tomorrow and won't say goodbye to you all."

"Mr. Shen, I'm really sorry for making you laugh."

"It's okay. Every family has a disobedient child. He deserves to be beaten and punished. Just beat him a few more times. Don't be lenient, otherwise it will be in vain."

Yang Lingzhao glared at her angrily, "It's all your fault. If you hadn't come, nothing would have happened and we would have been fine."

"You're right. I'm here to destroy the Lin family's plot. I have a grudge against them. You're just implicated. If you want to hate someone, just hate the Lin family."

"What grudge? Lin is just a little village girl. You won't let her go despite such a deep hatred!"

"She stole my ex-husband and destroyed my family. By the way, let me introduce myself to you. My name is Shen Nanzhi. We are old acquaintances. I will make you understand clearly when you die."

Shen Nanzhi blinked and turned away. Yang Lingzhao was struck by lightning, "How could it be her? It's her!"

Yang Lingyu sympathized, "Now you know where you lost, right? I can't forgive you for poisoning my eldest brother and almost killing him. Normally, don't call me second brother. I don't have a brother as stupid and vicious as you."

Yang Lingyuan also said: "I can't forgive you either. Your family gives you everything you want. Don't your second brother and I love you enough?

You would rather trust outsiders than your relatives. It's really disheartening. Father, mother, this family only has me but not him. I don't want to see his stupid face anymore."

Madam Yang felt distressed but helpless. The eldest son was the legitimate son and the best child in the family. He wanted to drive the third son away and make him live alone.

This was already the best solution. If they were not born of the same mother, Yang Lingyuan would have taken his life.

Lin Xueqing was brought in, but Shen Nanzhi had no idea about the subsequent interrogation.

Imperial Envoy Zhou handed the jade pendant to Shen Nanzhi and said, "Miss Shen, what do you think we should do with this thing?"

Shen Nanzhi took it, suddenly clapped his hands, twisted it, and opened it again, and the jade pendant shattered into powder.

He threw it into the pond and said, "Look, isn't this a solution? People, it's all greed that causes trouble."

Zhou Qinchao's eyes were complicated. "Miss Shen, this is yours. You may..."

"But I don't want this possibility. I'm living a good life now. I don't expect parents who abandon their children to regain their conscience, and I don't want to play a miserable role with a complicated identity. So, this is the best way to deal with it."

Zhou Qin almost nodded: "If the young lady thinks it's a good idea, then it's fine. I'm going back to Beijing too. Let's meet in the capital someday."

"If I have the chance, I might go back to the capital to broaden my horizons. I'm sorry to bother you, Lord Zhou."
