Rebirth of the legitimate daughter: the daily life of His Majesty the Emperor’s beloved concubine

Chapter 22 Finally able to leave the Su family in an upright manner (page 12)

Suningan staggered, but fortunately Cuizhu held her up with both hands. He covered the beaten side with one hand and felt a burning pain.

The originally soft cheeks gradually became hard and seemed to be swollen.

"Kill you, you bastard!" Su Chengqian was still angry, and when he saw Su Ning'an's needle-like eyes, he became even more angry. His majesty as a father was trampled under his daughter's feet. Was he going to rebel?

Rolling up his sleeves, he took two steps forward and raised his hand before knocking it down again.

Although he had already given up on his father, his heart still felt cold when he saw Su Chengqian looking like he was going to beat him to death.

Even though her swollen cheek made her more and more painful, Suningan still bit her lip tightly and refused to make any sound.

Seeing her like this, Su Chengqian's anger flared up again, and his face became even more ferocious.

Fortunately, Cuizhu held Su Ning'an tightly in her arms, and screamed again. The servants guarding outside the house hurried over, and soon five or six people rushed forward and twisted Su Chengqian's arms backwards, pressing him to the ground in embarrassment. .

The other two people held long wooden sticks, crossing them and clasping them around his neck like a government interrogating a prisoner.

"Bold! Don't let go!" Although Su Chengqian was subdued to the ground, he still struggled.

But he was a scholar after all. How could he withstand the oppression of five or six people? He was covered in ashes.

In the past few days, Japan has been frustrated because of frequent rejections, and the letters sent to the palace seemed to have disappeared. Now this commotion is even more embarrassing, and it is definitely not the elegant demeanor of the usual literati.

Aunt Zheng quickly ran over with several servants and maids, formed a circle around Su Ning'an, carefully checked her injuries, and cried out distressedly: "What can we do! Master, I am so heartbroken when I see this." !”

The maidservant beside her also gasped. The girl was injured like this, and she could not escape the crime of failing to protect her master.

"I am the sixth-rank cabinet minister! How dare you bully the imperial court official! Who can control my own daughter when I am the official!"

"Daughter? Mr. Su, isn't your daughter the only one of today's jade talents! Ever since you were a child, you have never regarded me as your daughter!"

Su Ning'an looked at Su Chengqian who was struggling on the ground, his pupils tightened and his eyebrows knit together, "Why should you teach me a lesson now!"

"Why! Just because I am..."

"It doesn't matter who you are! Now the girl is our master's. That's a famous lady! Not everyone can teach her a lesson!"

Aunt Zheng stepped forward with a few steps, her voice was not loud but she was very dignified, "Don't say that Mr. Su is only a sixth-grade official. Even if he is a first-grade official, if he hurt our girl, my father would go and ask questions!"

"You, you..." When had Su Chengqian been scolded by a woman? She is still a slave, so she is naturally angry, "Ignorant woman! She was born to me, she is my seed, so of course she can be controlled and scolded!"

Suningan bit her lip, her face turned pale, and she resisted the wetness in her eyes.

If he wasn't her father, she could of course ask someone to make him remember it, but he was!

So he could only clench his fists and watch coldly.

"Come here, give me a slap!"

"You, you dare!"

As soon as Aunt Zheng finished speaking, a servant came forward, grabbed his chin, and slapped Su Chengqian's face for more than ten times, causing his face to swell instantly.

Cuizhu supported Su Ning'an, but her eyes were shining. She almost wanted to give Grandma Zheng a kiss. It was so relieved!

Su Ning'an lowered her eyes, her heart was in a state of confusion, and she couldn't express it for a moment. She didn't know why her eyes were moist.

"I heard that someone from the Su family is serving in the palace, but Mr. Su's behavior does not bring shame! Even though you and our girl are father and daughter, since the girl is with our master, she is his, Mr. Su If you are humiliated like this in the street, even if you go to the government, we can still make the Su family lose face!"

Although Grandma Zheng did not say this clearly, she also told her that the power of her family is not something that you, a sixth-grade courtier, can defeat!

Su Chengqian naturally understood, and his hands were shaking with anger.

Su Ning'an felt a thump in her heart. If she really went to the government this time, the Su family might not ignore it, but Aunt Zheng could use her power to suppress others and speak so openly. Could it be that Yan Zhuo is more powerful than she thought? Even bigger? Big enough to call a deer a horse?

"You... in the clear sky... how dare you!"

"Enough!" Su Ning'an suddenly shouted coldly, and everyone present shut up, including Aunt Zheng and Su Chengqian who had been shouting non-stop.

Su Chengqian glanced at Su Ning'an, and was really startled by that sound. His daughter had always been submissive, how could she suddenly have such a temper?

"My mother gave birth to a child for the Su family and was your first wife. As a husband-in-law, not only will it not be easy for you to survive and bury me, but you will be burned. I am afraid that you have already planned to threaten me with my mother! To seize my mother's dowry."

Funny to say, this was the first time in so many years that she had a direct conversation with her father.

Su Chengqian's heart sank, and he quickly denied it, "That was the decision of the Han family, and it had nothing to do with me!"

"Oh, so my father is willing to let me take away my mother's dowry?"

"Don't even think about it! She is from the Su family, so the dowry naturally belongs to the Su family too! Don't even think about taking her away!"

The corners of Su Ning'an's lips curled up, "Everyone, you can hear me. Mr. Su Chengqian intends to seize the dowry from his late wife and refuses to return it to his legitimate daughter. When the time comes, can you all bear witness for me?"

The people present, except Su Chengqian, were all Ana Yanzui's people, and since Su Chengqian did say such words, everyone naturally responded.

Only then did Su Chengqian react and said tremblingly: "You, you dare to set me up!"

"My daughter never designed you, she just asked you to tell the truth." Su Ning'an didn't bother to look at Su Chengqian, turned her head and covered her lips with her hands, and whispered a few words to Cuizhu. Cuizhu nodded and immediately trotted back to the private house.

Then I heard Su Ning'an say: "You said that the Han family may bear the responsibility of the crime alone as you said. Whether it is the father's instruction or not, based on the Han family's character, can you be dragged into the water? If I file a complaint with the Jingzhao Mansion , can you be punished for the crime of taking your wife's dowry?"

"You..." Su Chengqian heard the veins on his forehead popping up. Although he was still pressed tightly, his hands were clenched into fists. If his gaze could kill, he would have already pierced Suning'an's heart with thousands of arrows. "You, what on earth do you want to do!"

"It's very simple!" Su Ning'an saw Cuizhu running up wiping sweat and said, "Sign the letter of separation and write down a promise to return all the mother's dowry!"

Cuizhu had already unfolded a piece of paper and handed it to Suningan's hand. Although the paper was yellowed, the handwriting was clear.

This was when Su Ning'an was fourteen years old. After the Mei family broke off their marriage, Du Yingrong saw that he refused to cancel the marriage to the slanderous person, so he wanted to take her away.

However, Su Chengqian and the Han family were reluctant to part with their mother's generous dowry, and felt that the divorce would be a loss of face, so they refused to agree to it no matter what.

Du Yingrong had already written her name and fingerprinted the letter.

"You're dreaming! The dowry belongs to the Su family! It does!" Su Chengqian spat angrily.

There is no problem with He Li. She is already dead anyway. If Han is fine and he helps her, and Yu'er becomes more noble, he will also benefit from it, but the dowry can never be repaid.
