Chapter 233 Gift
Chapter 233 Gift
Xie Yao ignored Xie Cheng's almost cannibalistic look.
Xie Yao gave the order personally, and the imperial physician came quickly to personally examine Xie Cheng's injuries.
Xie Zhan, as a son, served by his side.
As a daughter, Xie Yao could only wait outside. She was supported by Zhu Qing. She looked weak and seemed to have suffered a great blow.
A group of passionate young people bravely spoke out to comfort him and said they would come forward to testify.
3 Xie Yao thanked them with red eyes, "Thank you very much."
The group of teenagers blushed and kept saying no need to thank me.
Xie Yao knew that Xie Zhan was not innocent in today's incident, but this was not a one-sided exploitation.
For those who make friends with Xie Zhan at this time, the intentions of the family representatives behind them are very obvious.
Besides, Xie Zhan did not fabricate the facts, he just asked these people to be witnesses.
At this moment, a series of exclamations were heard from inside the house, as if the imperial physicians were shocked by the extent of Xie Cheng's injuries.
Not long after, Xie Zhan and a royal doctor came out. Xie Zhan's eyes were red and his fists were clenched, and he seemed to be extremely angry.
The imperial physician looked reluctant, "Crown Princess, thank you for this... Alas!"
"Master Xie has no healthy skin left on his body. He is covered in wounds of all kinds, and most of them are fresh." The imperial physician was equally furious, saying, "Xie Jing is unworthy of being a human son!"
Xie Yao was about to faint, but Zhu Qing quickly supported her and said, "Crown Princess, you have to hold on!"
"The master said that the murderer cannot be let off!"
Although Xie Cheng had a stroke last time, the emperor did not deprive him of his official position. Now he is still an official appointed by the court and the father of the Crown Princess.
In addition, the son's abuse of his father was so appalling that it shocked the court and the public, and the emperor personally tried the case.
Without Xie Yao and Xie Zhan saying anything, a group of passionate young men explained the matter clearly in a few words.
Someone immediately asked, "How could it be such a coincidence that we ran into something like this on our first visit?"
Without Xie Yao saying anything, the young man said, "It's not a coincidence that we bumped into each other today, it's that we just arrived today."
"If you had seen Uncle Xie's miserable condition, I'm afraid you wouldn't say such words! The imperial physician said that Uncle Xie has new injuries every day. It's obvious that Xie Jing is secretly beating Uncle Xie like this every day!"
The young man spoke loudly, filled with righteous indignation, "Uncle Xie adopted him and treated him like his own son, but he repays kindness with such ingratitude. He is truly unworthy of being a human being!"
Seeing that someone was still objecting, the young man asked, "When this gentleman is old, would he also be willing to be treated like Uncle Xie?"
This question left everyone speechless.
Xie Yao silently praised the young man in her heart. Such fighting power...she didn't even need to say a word.
The emperor naturally understood, and his originally cold expression changed a little because of the boy's words.
Who would be willing to put themselves in his shoes?
"Crown Princess." The emperor's eyes fell on Xie Yao, "What do you think about this matter?"
Xie Yao knelt down and said, "Father, I would like to ask you to punish Xie Jing severely to comfort me."
Xie Jing has been asked about this matter, but Xie Jing just made up random stories, which only proved the fact that he abused his father.
The emperor was silent for a moment, then said, "Xie Jing is unfilial and unbrotherly, unworthy of being a son. I will expel him from the Xie family tree! Considering his youth, I will spare his life but give him fifty strokes of the cane."
"However... Xie Zhan is also responsible for failing to supervise properly. He shall be punished with ten strokes of the cane."
"So, do you have anything else to say?"
Just as Xie Yao was about to speak, Xie Zhan was quicker and said respectfully, "I obey your command and thank you for your grace, Your Majesty."
Everyone retreated.
Xie Yao looked at Xie Zhan. Before she could say anything, Xie Zhan smiled and said, "Sister, it's okay."
It's just ten strokes of the cane. There's no need to argue with Your Majesty over him.
Xie Zhan was not beaten seriously, and he was helped into the carriage. The young men all felt reluctant, but still said goodbye to Xie Zhan.
They all felt that Xie Zhan was innocent and should not be beaten, but since the order came from His Majesty, no one dared to object.
Xie Zhan, however, saw his friends off with a happy smile on his face.
Finally, he looked at Xie Yao and smiled, "Don't worry, sister. It's just a minor injury, not serious."
Xie Yao gave Zhu Qing a look, dismissed everyone, and then asked, "Why are you so anxious?"
There will be plenty of opportunities to deal with Xie Jing and Xie Cheng in the future. Now, this father and son can't cause any trouble.
Xie Zhan's smile faded slightly, and he said, "The doctor said that father has been having moments of confusion lately."
He raised the verdict in his hand and said, "Such good news should be let the sober father know."
After saying that, Xie Zhan became a little cautious again, "Sister, please don't blame me for taking the initiative..."
During the days after dealing with Zhang, Xie Yao naturally did not let Xie Cheng go, but the torture she inflicted on him was mostly mental.
Physically, some methods were used that would not leave any visible traces. For the sake of Xie Zhan's reputation, the incident of Xie Yao getting bedsores and maggots did not happen again, but Xie Cheng's life became more difficult.
However, after Xie Jing returned to the Xie family, Xie Yao and Xie Zhan sent Xie Jing to Xie Cheng.
Let Xie Jing’s beloved son personally “take care” of him.
It's only been half a month, and Xie Cheng has been tortured so badly...
Xie Yao understood the implication of Xie Zhan's words and asked, "When did you know?"
Knowing that Xie Jing was Xie Cheng’s biological son, he was so “heartbreaking”.
Xie Zhan said frankly, "On the day of adoption."
He was young but precocious and understood everything at that time.
"so smart."
Xie Yao praised Xie Zhan, but couldn't help laughing at Xie Cheng in her heart. Even a child could see through it at a glance, but he thought he could hide it from others?
"I don't blame you. It's you who's suffering." Xie Yao took the medicine from Zhu Qing and put it in his hand, "Go back and apply the medicine properly."
Xie Zhan pursed his lips and smiled, tightened his grip on the porcelain bottle in his hand, and said, "Thank you, sister."
Xie Yao personally sent Xie Zhan back to the Xie family and ordered someone to apply medicine to Xie Zhan.
She took the verdict to see Xie Cheng.
Ah Zhan is right. How can we not tell Xie Cheng such good news?
Xie Yao showed the verdict in front of Xie's father. Xie's father widened his eyes, became excited again, and gasped.
"Evil...evil..."
Xie Yao smiled, "Don't worry, father. This is just for show."
"After a few days, I'll let Xie Jing come and serve you. After all, you and your father are connected by heart, and it's not good to separate you for too long."
"That's right." Xie Yao's eyes turned, and as if she had thought of something, she said to Xie Cheng: "Father, you must live well. If you can't bear it one day... I won't let Xie Jing go."
Xie Yao's voice was calm, yet it seemed to reveal an endless chill.
Father Xie was silent for a moment, and his eyes suddenly turned pleading.
He stretched out his hand to touch Xie Yao, mumbling, "Wrong... wrong..."
But Xie Yao had already turned and left without listening.
Xie Cheng better not regret it, otherwise she would feel even more disgusted!
As Xie Yao left Xie Cheng's room, Zhu Qing came forward and said, "Crown Princess, our people took Xie Jing away before Xie Yuru did."
