Chapter 127: A Strange Woman Like Her Mother

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

However, his words were undeniably too harsh.

Razed to the ground…

Su Yingxue pondered for a moment. Looking at the current state of the room, if it were razed to the ground, she might now be sitting amidst the swirling dust, having tea with Liang Jin.

But as she observed Liang Jin’s expression, she cautiously inquired, “Lord Liang, do you think that I am acting recklessly because 1 have Your Highness’s support?”

“Miss Su, isn’t that the case?” Liang Jin stepped down from the platform, revealing a trace of helplessness in his eyes.

“Lord Liang, I won’t accept the blame because I don’t believe I’ve done anything wrong.” Su Yingxue said firmly.

If she hadn’t been concerned about Wu Jinyan and gone to the Minister’s Estate, Wu Jinyan might have ended up as a lifeless body by now.

As for Wu Hongtao’s family, who condoned the crime, they would have escaped unscathed. On what grounds?

Was Wu Jinyan’s life, not a life?

“Miss Su, wasn’t it wrong for you to intrude into the Minister’s Estate? Breaking Wu Ruofei’s limbs, wasn’t that wrong?” Before she could respond, Liang Jin interjected, “I understand your sympathy for Wu Jinyan. As the governor of the Capital Prefecture, I also recognize the injustice she’s suffered. However, the crux of the matter lies in her failure to report these grievances to the authorities.”

“Even if it were common citizens, I might still comprehend it. But you and Wu Jinyan, one being the legitimate daughter of the Marquis’s Manor and the other the daughter of a minister, what status do you both hold? Shouldn’t you abide by the law? What purpose does the legal system of the Great Cheng Dynasty serve?” Liang Jin’s expression was filled with regret, and his tone grew even more solemn.

“Lord Liang, if women of the Great Cheng Dynasty could live worry-free lives after reporting to the authorities, I would gladly admit my mistake and take responsibility for my actions.” Su Yingxue’s demeanor turned grave.

Morally and logically, she hadn’t done anything wrong.

However, from a legal standpoint, she admitted she was wrong.

Liang Jin’s expression darkened slightly, but as the governor of the Capital Prefecture, he remained resolute. “Miss Su, the law surpasses all else. Even if a prince commits a crime, he should face the same consequences as a commoner!”

Had these words come from another official’s mouth, Su Yingxue might have considered it a jest.

However, she trusted the words spoken by Liang Jin.

That’s why she confessed to him. “Lord Liang, my actions were indeed impulsive.”

Liang Jin showed a glimmer of relief. “Your acknowledgment makes this trial worthwhile, and my words haven’t been in vain. Miss Su, you truly are a reasonable woman. You are indeed the daughter of Princess Shu Li.”

“Lord Liang is familiar with my mother as well?” Su Yingxue’s heart skipped a beat.

Liang Jin smiled. “I had the privilege of witnessing her grace once. Although 1 never had the chance to meet Princess Shu Li in person due to her early passing, her reputation spread far and wide. Aside from her medical expertise, her character and conduct were truly commendable! In our Great Cheng Dynasty, there’s hardly a woman with a more forthright demeanor than Princess Shu Li.”

A trace of sorrow flashed across Su Yingxue’s eyes. Indeed, she had been born too late. She had never even seen her mother. Now, she had to rely on others to learn about her mother’s life.

“Miss Su, I didn’t mean to stir up your grief. The purpose of my words today is merely to remind you, as the esteemed daughter of the Marquis’s Manor, that you must think twice before doing anything. If you want to save someone, there is always a better way than barging into the estate and causing a ruckus.”

Liang Jin said earnestly. After saying this, he didn’t say anything else.

He was willing to speak at length because he admired Su Yingxue..
