Chapter 524: The crimes are numerous and not limited to this
Zheng Tong glanced at Yin with contempt and said in a cold voice: "Let's not talk about the laws of our dynasty:
A wife is a wife, a concubine is a concubine, and there is no such thing as a co-wife;
The so-called equal wife is just to cover up the shame of the lowly woman and make her sound better;
However, she was still a concubine after all, and there was never any such thing as a concubine being promoted to a wife.
What's more, has anyone in the capital ever heard of the fact that Leng Xian, Marquis of Qinxing, married a second wife in a formal ceremony after the death of his first wife?
At least I have never seen a marriage certificate registered in the government.
Besides, if one wants to make a concubine his wife, the government will never issue a marriage certificate in violation of the law!
Yin, you were just a concubine kept away from the public by Leng Xian, the Marquis of Qinxing.
It was thanks to the generosity of the late madam that you were allowed to enter the Marquis Qinxing's Mansion through the side door with your illegitimate daughter and your pregnancy.
Marquis Qinxing married another woman?
And you call yourself the wife of a marquis?
How did you have the nerve to say that?
You are a thief who became a concubine from a mistress and who stole and enjoyed the late wife's dowry both during her lifetime and after her death!
It’s not just you…
Even your Yin family has been wantonly misappropriating and enjoying the late madam’s dowry and property!
This was verified by this government not long ago.
Based on your acts of stealing, you can be directly convicted of the crime.
As a lowly concubine, you dared to steal the dowry of the principal wife and enjoy it. You are so bold!
You said... Old Yin can use the dowry of the late wife, and as a daughter-in-law, the late wife should support and respect her mother-in-law;
That was also during my late wife's lifetime, and it was done voluntarily by my late wife;
You also said that the Marquis could be used because he was the late lady's husband.
The illegitimate children you gave birth to can also be used, and they must call the late lady mother!
That must also be done during the deceased's lifetime, and must also be done voluntarily by the deceased;
Instead of you taking it without permission.
snort!
According to what you said, could it be that you, Yin, are the ones who changed the laws for my Jingyue Kingdom?
Should the laws of my Jingyue Kingdom be changed according to the needs of a concubine like you?
what!
I really don’t know what to say!
I want to tell you clearly here that after the death of the late wife, except for the late wife's only daughter who can inherit, neither the late wife's husband nor the mother-in-law has the right to use a penny;
Not to mention you, a concubine of lowly status, and your illegitimate children.
Furthermore, you said that after the late wife passed away, you raised the eldest daughter for many years?
I want to ask you, how have you raised the eldest daughter over the years since the death of your late wife?
Raising?
Would it be more appropriate to say that it was cruel treatment, bullying and torture?
Should we say that you are stealing the late wife's dowry for your own enjoyment under the guise of raising an older daughter?
If it weren't for the eldest lady, you were able to use the eldest lady's name to keep the late lady's dowry for your group to enjoy. I'm afraid... the eldest lady would have died long ago, right?
Not long ago, the two ladies of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion took the eldest daughter Leng Rongyue out of the Marquis of Qinxing's Mansion. Wasn't it because they accidentally discovered the truth that you were bullying and abusing the eldest daughter?
The young lady was bullied and oppressed by you, locked in the yard without food, and sent evil slaves to guard her...
If the two ladies of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion had gone one day later, I'm afraid that Miss Leng Rongyue would have been viciously ruined by you;
So I was "raised" by you until I died, right? "
Zheng Tong raised his hand and took a few confessions from the side, "According to the confession of the servants in the Marquis Qinxing's mansion:
Since the death of my late wife, her dowry has been occupied and enjoyed by you all the time;
However, your daughter, Leng Rongyue, was threatened by you with the lives of those around her, and she has been living a hard life with little food and clothing day after day;
Miss Leng Rongyue, out of consideration for the lives of those around her, had no choice but to swallow her anger and compromise, never daring to reveal the truth behind the incident.
The servant's confession also mentioned:
The valuable items originally in Yuehuaxuan where the eldest lady lived were all purchased by the late madam for her beloved daughter when she was alive, but they were all looted and robbed by you and your pair of vicious illegitimate children long ago!
It was only when someone from the Duke of Anguo's Mansion came to visit the eldest lady that you would order the servants to temporarily carry some over to make a temporary display;
As soon as the people from the Anguo Mansion left, Yuehuaxuan was immediately restored to its original state. The gate was locked and guarded by evil slaves, as if they were imprisoned.
Your illegitimate children take pleasure in bullying the legitimate daughter every day;
Even the courtyard where the eldest daughter has lived for many years will soon belong to your illegitimate daughter!
I heard that you have even made a new plaque, just waiting to destroy the eldest daughter and let your illegitimate daughter take over her place!
Yin, what I said is the truth, right?
These are only a small part of your evil deeds.
And your sins are far more than these..."
Zheng Tong thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I don't want to waste any more words with you.
Didn’t you just cry out for injustice?
Well... I might as well let you hear what Leng Xian confessed in the court this morning?
Let all the people in the hall listen to it;
Lest someone say that this government forced Leng Xian to sign without any trial or questioning! "
At this point, Zheng Tong looked at Xue Zhubu who was standing beside him, "Zhu Bu, come forward and read out Leng Xian's confession in court!"
"As you command, my lord!"
Xue Zhubu took the confession, walked to the center of the hall, and read it aloud.
