Becoming The Real Rich Daughter After Divorce

Chapter 313: Chapter 313. The murderer was not the heir

The commotion outside the palace was so big that Lady Qiao could not pretend that she did not know anything.

Lu Chen only assured Lady Qiao and advised her, “Changing the law will affect the interests of too many people. Moreover, those scholars have been studying Confucianism since they were young, and the hen’s nest is already deeply ingrained.

“After the results of the law are out, the officials and the people will see that the law is effective, and they will naturally be able to improve.

They looked down on women, but not all of them had bad intentions. People like Hong Yang and Lin Xiang all felt that they would harm civilian women, that women were helpless and could not do business.”

Qiao jinniang said, “I understand this logic, but I am now the empress. They are calling me the demon empress and calling me heartless. I can not ignore the people’s will. I want to go out of the palace to send Miss Li off. At least I have a clear conscience!”

Lu Chen said, “Those who took the lead to call you a demon empress will naturally be dealt with by the Ministry of Justice!”

Qiao Jinniang shook her head. “Didn’t father always say that the mouth of the people is better than the mouth of the river? Banning their mouths is not a long-term solution. Come out of the palace with me!”

On the main street, when Miss Li’s coffin was halfway there, countless guards came over. Some scholars thought that they were scolding the empress, so the government came out and covered their faces with their sleeves.

However, when they heard that the Emperor had arrived, they could only kneel down and salute.

Lady Qiao Jin said, “No need to salute. I am here today to send Miss Li on her last journey. Miss Li is smart and she is a good porcelain maker. It is a pity that she is gone at such a young age...”.

However, I don’t think that the Emperor’s imperial edict is wrong. There are many orphan girls in this world. In the end, many girls were seized by their clans and had to be reduced to the Sick Bay!

If there was a woman who could take over the family business from the start, the Li family would not look for an heir, and there would not be an heir who would commit murder!

You should know that the hen si Chen’s rooster was also born from a hen. Some things should be done by a man, and some things should be done by a woman. There was nothing wrong with that.

However, why couldn’t a woman take over the family business? Could it be that the woman was stupid? Were men intelligent?

How many men felt inferior to miss li when it came to porcelain? If the heir had the ability, why would he be afraid of Miss Li taking over the family business? Why would he say something like a hen si chen if he was incompetent?

Since you all feel sorry for her death, why did you say the words ‘Hen Si Chen’again?”

“No, your majesty, no. My young master also made good porcelain. He started his business because he saved miss and didn’t start making porcelain. He and miss have been very close since young. Young Master couldn’t have killed miss. He even injured his hand to save Miss!”

A young servant girl of the Li family ran up to Lady Qiao and knelt down to kowtow.

Someone in the crowd said, “In order to marry the princess, Huang Ci of the west kiln did not hesitate to injure his own hand. He is the heir, so he will naturally risk his life to save his own sister.”

The young servant girl of the Li family could not help but shake her head and shed tears. “My young master is not such a person. Empress, please understand!”

“Someone pull her away. The Empress is not a place where this young servant girl can speak!”Madam Li hurriedly reprimanded.

Lu Chen calmly said three words, “Let her speak.”

The young servant girl said, “My young master also said a few days ago that your majesty, once you become rich and noble, you will not forget your old friends. He also said that young miss has the help of a noble. The Wang family, who originally built the boat, still looks down on our young miss. Now that young miss is married, I’m afraid the Wang family will hold her in high regard.

“He also said to young miss that when the time comes, he will personally go out of seclusion to the west to earn a large sum of money and come back. This will make the people of the Wang family not dare to look down on young miss anymore. When the time comes, if great grandmother Wang dares to torture young miss, she will make young miss and Li come back home.”

The young servant girl could not help but kowtow. “Your Majesty, Young Miss and young master grew up together. Young miss learned how to make porcelain from Young Master!”

Qiao jinniang said, “Since brother and sister have such a good relationship, why did your young master personally admit to killing Miss Li?”

The young servant girl bit her lip and said, “I don’t know either, but my young master was really wronged.”

The second uncle of the Li family came out and said to the young servant girl, “You can know a person’s face but not his heart. Who knew that this little bastard would have such a thing behind his back? Big Brother, it was I who harmed you. I should have let Jian ‘er be your heir. I wouldn’t have let that bastard get greedy and harm my niece!”

Kiln Lord Li was covered in wounds. When he thought about it, he said in annoyance, “Back then, I saw that he had righteousness and good craftsmanship in making porcelain. It was me. I was the one who harmed my daughter!”

Lady Qiao’s gaze fell on second uncle Li and his youngest son Jian ‘er. She exchanged glances with Lu Chen and whispered into his ear, “Look at second uncle Li’s youngest son.”

Lu Chen said to the guard behind him, “Go and bring Li Fang here.”

Li Fang was that son. When he was brought from the execution ground, his clothes were covered with rotten eggs and rotten vegetables. He looked very pathetic.

The servant girl quickly went forward and said, “Young master... Young Master, tell the Empress that you didn’t kill the Young Lady!”

Li Fang lowered his head and cried bitterly, “It was me, it was me who killed my sister.”

Lu Chen said to Li Fang, “Li Fang, I heard from your servant girl that you and Miss Li have a very close relationship. Your younger sister passed away, and you covered up for the murderer. How could your elder brother be worthy of Miss Li in the afterlife?”

Lady Qiao then said, “The Yue kiln is now very famous. Miss Li’s wish when she was alive was to make the Yue kiln known to everyone in the world, so that every country in the world could see the beauty of our great Tang Yue Kiln’s porcelain. If you plead guilty now, Miss Li’s wish might be over!”

Li Yang hurriedly said, “Your Majesty, Li Fang has clearly confessed. What else do you want him to say?”

Qiao Jin looked at Li Yang indifferently and said, “Nothing much. I’m just curious why the youngest son of the Li family’s second son looks so similar to you...”

Li Yang’s expression changed greatly. “My daughter died because of you. What are you trying to slander me in front of my daughter whose body is not even cold yet?”

Lu Chen said, “The Empress doesn’t care about etiquette and respect, but that doesn’t mean you can look down on the empress. Guards, slap her mouth.”

Li Yang was flustered and kept kowtowing.

Some of the scholars in the crowd were indignant. “Miss Li is already dead. As a mother, how could Li Yang care about respect and respect?”

“Yes, when the Retired Emperor was in power, he never cared about these things.”

“I miss the 57th day of the Retired Emperor...”

Qiao Jinniang said to Li Yang, “Why are you so anxious? I only said that it was similar. Li Fang, I don’t care what evidence you have in the hands of the real murderer. You have to think it through. is the real murderer worthy of your protection?”

Second Uncle Li went over and kicked Li Fang. “Hurry up and confess. Your mother is seriously ill in Lin ‘an. She will probably die of anger when she knows you are like this. Also, your sister will never have the face to marry again.”

Li Fang knelt on the ground and said, “Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I Killed My Sister.”

Second Uncle Li and Lady Li Yang both heaved a sigh of relief at the same time..
