Shi Chengyi interrupted her, "Oh, I forgot to tell you, I just submitted my resignation."
He submitted a letter of resignation to the court, stating that he was "morally deficient and feared failing the grace of the emperor." Without an official position, even if another scandal broke out, it would not have much of an impact.
He ruined his own career with his own hands. This was the price he paid for his mistakes. He can't blame others.
Nanny Huang didn't expect Shi Chengyi to be so ruthless and burst into tears, "Master, Master, I was wrong! Please forgive me!"
Shi Chengyi looked at the old woman in front of him with disgust. "I spared you earlier because I thought of your old age. You turned a blind eye to my kindness and plotted against me. Do you think I am easy to talk to, or do you think my wife is easy to talk to?"
Huang Ma suddenly understood and was furious. "It was Madam who deliberately moved those jewels for us to steal! She used such a dirty trick to deal with me! I entered this mansion when I was young, Master! I was loyal to you!"
Yu Sujun's smile did not reach her eyes. "No matter how dirty my tricks are, are they as dirty as yours? Did I ask you to steal things? Stop talking nonsense, I'll beat you up!"
The board hit the grandfather and grandson, making a dull thumping sound. When the official arrived, he took the two bloody people back.
The culprit was caught red-handed, and among the stolen items were items given by the emperor. Liu Zhi even admitted that it was indeed her grandmother who stole the items.
This case requires almost no effort to examine, it is a completely easy question.
The difficulty lies in, "Where does the imperial gift come from?"
Yu Sujun replied respectfully, "Your Excellency, my niece is Princess Haiyan. She left her things in my room, and I will return them to her the next day."
When the official heard the name "Princess Haiyan", he was shocked and quickly offered her a seat. "So Madam is Princess Haiyan's aunt?"
Yu Sujun said, "My husband is Shi Chengyi, he is Princess Haiyan's uncle. Sir, do you think I am Princess Haiyan's aunt?"
The official had been confused during the past few days of the New Year, and only then did he remember that Shi Chengyi was indeed Princess Haiyan's great uncle.
So, what else is there to not understand? This is a powerful family punishing a vicious slave. No matter what means they use, the fact is that the vicious slave stole.
A slam of the gavel, behead!
Why was the sentence so severe? According to the laws of the Northern Wing, there are five types of punishments for theft: fines, corporal punishment, imprisonment, exile and death penalty.
The death penalty stipulates that those who are involved in huge amounts of money or those who steal horses and cattle are included.
This case involves royal gifts, so the amount and value are naturally huge. The death penalty is reasonable.
Huang Ma Ma was furious when she saw that things had come to this point. "Sir! I am accusing Shi Chengyi of raping my granddaughter."
She pointed at her granddaughter with a shaking finger, "It's her! She is the witness!"
Liu Zhi also cried, "Sir! Sir, you are wise! The master treated me..."
She really didn't understand. How could she be sentenced to death when she was supposed to live a life of luxury with the master?
This! The official has a headache.
Yu Sujun was not panicked, "Don't worry, sir. I also have a witness. Bring him up."
A prostitute from the brothel named "Auntie Mei" came to the hall. When she heard that Nanny Huang and her grandson had been sentenced to death, she had nothing to hide and told him everything about Nanny Huang's plan to plot against Cheng Yi.
Finally, Aunt Mei cried, "I only found out about this later. At first, I just thought Liu Zhi wanted to work in a brothel to make money, so I taught her the unique skills to serve men. I didn't know that they were ambitious and wanted to use this to control Master Shi."
Shi Cheng Yi Xiao Qi broke the ban, and the matter was set in stone. But he had already submitted his resignation letter, but he had to bear the stigma.
After the matter was settled, Yu Sujun was in high spirits, walking like the wind, personally holding a large box of jewelry to return to Shi Anxia, and shouting from a distance, "Xia'er Xia'er Xia'er..."
