Chapter 605: Redmond Reaps What He Has Sown
Chapter 605: Redmond Reaps What He Has Sown
Joseph Redmond looked around secretly, trying to find an ally who could help him. However, he found that the ambassadors of various countries were all bowing their heads in thought, and no one noticed his anxiety and uneasiness. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
No matter what, he could not accept that his own brother was sanctioned in China.
Joseph Redmond finally could no longer suppress his inner anxiety and uneasiness. He stood up and looked directly at Su Zhengyang, his voice trembling with dignity:
"President Su, I must emphasize that the Redmond family is a member of the Austro-Hungarian royal family. According to international practice, any case involving a member of the royal family must be negotiated and handled through the diplomatic channels of both countries. You do not have the right to arrest him without authorization! Even if he really made a mistake, he should be sent back to the country according to diplomatic procedures, so that our royal family can condemn and deal with it internally."
As soon as Joseph Redmond's voice fell, the atmosphere in the entire courtyard became tense and heavy again. The eyes of ambassadors from various countries were all focused on Su Zhengyang, wondering how the young president would respond to this challenge.
Su Zhengyang's eyes were as cold as ice. He raised his head slightly, as if he wanted to see through Joseph Redmond's false majesty. He spoke calmly, but his voice was as hard as stone: "Ambassador Joseph, I respect your royal family, but in my opinion, there is no so-called international practice that can override the law. My philosophy is that blood debts must be paid with blood. The crimes he committed here must be punished here."
He paused and continued, "You mentioned international conventions and the imperial royal family, but I tell you, in my eyes, these are not important. What is important is the crimes he committed, and the pain and tragic fate of those innocent victims. He forcibly abducted Chinese girls, brutally violated them, and even caused a loss of life. Can your royal family condemn and deal with these crimes internally? Can you give justice to those victims?"
Su Zhengyang's words were like a sharp sword, pointing straight at Joseph Redmond's heart. He continued, "I, Su Zhengyang, am not a weak president. I will not condone him just because he is a member of the royal family. I want everyone to know that no matter who you are, no matter how high your status is, as long as you commit a crime, you must be punished accordingly. This is the law of China, and it is also my bottom line."
Joseph Redmond has always had a deep prejudice and contempt for China. He believes that China is just a backward country and is not worthy of being compared with the Austro-Hungarian Empire he represents. At this moment, under the dual pressure of Su Zhengyang's powerful aura and his brother's safety, he finally couldn't suppress his anger.
Joseph Redmond's anger reached its peak in an instant. His face flushed, the veins on his neck bulged, his hands clenched into fists, and he pointed at Su Zhengyang with trembling hands.
"Su Zhengyang, you are such an ignorant fellow!" he roared, "How dare you threaten our Austro-Hungarian Empire? Who do you think you are? China is just a backward and humble country. Your laws are nothing but a piece of waste paper in front of us! How dare you be so arrogant? You are simply courting death!"
His voice became louder and louder, spitting everywhere, his eyes were full of madness and anger, the contempt and anger in his eyes were intertwined, as if he was about to spit out fire. He took a step forward, his voice sharp and piercing: "Su Zhengyang, who do you think you are? How dare you provoke the royal family of our Austro-Hungarian Empire so arrogantly! I tell you, your actions will only bring disaster to China!"
Joseph Redmond became more and more agitated, and he began to speak without thinking: "You lowly Chinese people will never be worthy of being compared with our noble royal family! Your arrogance and ignorance will only bring you disaster!"
The other ambassadors looked at the furious Joseph Redmond with expressions of disbelief.
They did not expect that the Austro-Hungarian ambassador, known for his bad temper, would lose his composure at this critical moment and completely disregard diplomatic etiquette and occasion.
They looked at each other and shook their heads secretly. This Redmond was too stupid to speak so arrogantly in Su Zhengyang's territory. Isn't this courting death?
Hans von Seeckt, ambassador of the Bird Empire, witnessed the scene before him, sighed secretly, and shook his head slightly.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart that this Joseph Redmond was simply stupid to the extreme. He had always thought that he represented the authority of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and could bully weak countries like China at will. He was so out of control at this banquet because he looked down on China from the bottom of his heart and believed that China had no qualifications to talk to him so arrogantly.
Hans von Seeckt knew that Joseph Redmond's behavior would only bring more trouble to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. He seemed to have foreseen Joseph Redmond's miserable end.
At this time, Joseph Redmond still did not stop venting his anger. He knocked the tea table over, and the tea and porcelain fragments splashed everywhere, causing the whole banquet to fall into chaos.
He cursed angrily: "What a bullshit banquet! You, a yellow monkey with bad intentions, you want to take back the concession? Dream on!" His voice echoed throughout the banquet hall, shocking and angering everyone.
The other ambassadors were shocked by his behavior.
Su Zhengyang wiped his hands slowly with a napkin, and every movement seemed calm and unhurried. Then, he stood up, his upright figure like an unshakable mountain. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle, shooting directly at the roaring Joseph Redmond, and his calmness and determination made the surrounding ambassadors shudder.
Joseph Redmond was so angry that he had completely lost his mind. He pointed at Su Zhengyang's nose and cursed: "You damn yellow monkey, put away your dirty eyes. Sitting with you is the greatest humiliation to me!"
Before he finished speaking, Su Zhengyang's movements were as fast as lightning. He picked up an exquisite crystal ashtray on the table and smashed it towards Joseph Redmond's head without mercy. This time, he used up all his strength. The heavy crystal ashtray instantly cracked, and fragments flew everywhere.
Joseph Redmond screamed, the sound was so sharp and piercing that it seemed to pierce a person's eardrum. A deep gash was smashed on his forehead, and blood gushed out like a fountain, instantly dyeing his face red. His eyes were bloodshot due to the severe pain, and he could hardly see the scene in front of him.
He staggered back a few steps, but eventually he couldn't stand and fell to the ground. His body twitched and he kept cursing. Su Zhengyang calmly walked in front of him and picked up the ashtray that had been broken into two pieces and stained with blood.
