Chapter 810 When you drugged my mother, did you feel that you were doing something absolutely
Wu Xiuxin's crying made all the dignitaries and celebrities watching the ceremony frown.
"What do you mean? Could it be that the prince doesn't want to marry this girl? If that's the case, then why hold this wedding? Isn't this a deliberate attempt to humiliate the girl?"
Someone echoed, "Yeah, if you don't want to get married, just reject it early on. Why embarrass others like this now?!"
"Hey, didn't you just hear what the prince said? He must have discovered that this woman has another face, so he made such a scene at the wedding!"
The other person also nodded and said, "Yes, let's take a look at why the prince did this!"
The bursts of discussion made Zhuang Lian's expression even uglier. She stared at Jiang Dongping coldly, as if she was looking at an enemy instead of her son.
"Jiang Dongping, what do you mean? What do you want to do?"
Sensing the coldness in Zhuang Lian's tone, Jiang Dongping's face showed a hint of guilt. "Mother, I just want you to truly understand what kind of person your niece, whom you have always loved so much, is."
"If you still choose to continue this marriage after knowing what she has done, then my son can have whatever you wish for."
Jiang Dongping did not give the Wu family members a chance to continue speaking, and directly asked the librarian to bring up a fifty-year-old man.
When Wu Sancong saw that man, his face changed drastically, as if he had seen a ghost, and he felt infinite fear in his heart.
He, why is he here?!
"Sir Wu, do you recognize this man?" Jiang Dongping spoke calmly, with a hint of indifference in his eyes.
The man lowered his head, clasped his hands tightly in front of him, and looked uneasy. After glancing at Wu Sancong next to him, he immediately avoided his gaze, looking completely guilty.
Jiang Dongping spoke again amidst everyone's confused gazes, "Or should I ask, Sister Xiuxin, do you recognize this person?"
The crowd burst into discussion again, full of confusion and speculation.
On the other hand, Jiang Zhenlei stood above with a calm expression, as if he was not at all surprised or puzzled by Jiang Dongping's behavior.
"Donping, stop keeping us in suspense. If you have something to say, just say it directly! Don't waste everyone's time!"
"Yes, father!"
Jiang Dongping looked at Wu Xiuxin. Her delicate and festive makeup was slightly pale, and her round eyes seemed a little flustered.
She was nervous.
"This man is a doctor at the Jiu'an Hall in Yangzhou. He has close ties with the Wu family in Yangzhou and often secretly sells a medicinal powder to the Wu family called Liuyin Powder."
"If you take a small amount of that powder, it will make you feel weak all over, have palpitations, chest tightness, and lethargy."
"This medicine is colorless and odorless. If you don't take it for a day, the body will metabolize it. By then, even the best doctor won't be able to detect the true cause of the patient's illness."
When Jiang Dongping said this, he took a special look at the change in Zhuang Lian's expression.
He has explained it so clearly, his mother should be able to understand it, right?
But it seemed that he had overestimated his mother, or perhaps, because she trusted someone too much, her subconscious mind would never think about it that way!
Jiang Dongping felt somewhat helpless and could only sigh that Wu Xiuxin's performance over the years was really confusing.
He looked at Wu Xiuxin and asked, "Sister Xiuxin, after listening to what I said, do you have anything to say to my mother?"
If he could honestly admit it, he wouldn't have to make things difficult for her because she had been with her mother for many years.
But Wu Xiuxin's eyes dodged, still showing a strong look, "I don't know what the prince is talking about."
Seeing that the truth was about to be exposed, Wu Sancong immediately stepped forward to argue, "Prince, when you say these things, are you saying that our Wu family used that doctor's herbs to harm others?"
"Prince, if you really don't want to marry my Wu family's daughter, just refuse the marriage proposal. Why put such a huge accusation on my Wu family?!"
He angrily stepped forward and grabbed Wu Xiuxin's wrist, "Xiuxin, since this palace can't accommodate you, since the prince looks down on our Wu family, then there is no need for us to embarrass ourselves here and humiliate ourselves!!"
Seeing Wu Sancong so angry and humiliated, everyone immediately doubted what Jiang Dongping said.
"I heard that something happened a few days ago at the gate of the Western Chu Palace. It's said that the prince was about to abandon his family and career to pursue a woman from the martial arts world. In the end, it was only when the princess threatened to kill herself that he stayed in Kyoto."
After hearing this, someone couldn't help but think, "Could it be that Prince Dongping is deliberately slandering the Wu family in order to oppose the princess and refuse the marriage?"
"No way? He's the Crown Prince of Western Chu, after all. How could he do such a heartless thing?"
The people who were talking about these things were standing at the edge of the auditorium, so Zhuang Lian also heard what was said, and immediately anger and a sense of shame appeared on his face.
If what those people said was true, then all her careful teaching over the years had been wasted?
"Jiang Dongping, you disappoint me so much!" Zhuang Lian's face was filled with hatred, and she wanted to slap him awake. "Do you know what kind of bad reputation your behavior will bring to our Western Chu Palace?"
Jiang Dongping looked at his mother in astonishment. At this moment, she glared at him as if she was looking at a very shameful "thing".
"Mother, so, you think I'm slandering the Wu family?"
Jiang Dongping felt heartbroken. His biological mother didn't trust him as much as an in-law family!
Perhaps sensing Zhuang Lian's partiality for the Wu family, Wu Sancong became even more arrogant, coldly rebuking Jiang Dongping, "Sir, aren't you slandering our Wu family?"
"You just picked someone and said that he was the pharmacist of my Wu family. You also said that the Wu family poisoned people. Do you know how serious your accusation is?"
"You are going to force our entire Wu family to death!"
"Forget it! Since the prince hates this marriage so much, our Wu family is not ignorant. Your Majesty, Princess, let's call off today's marriage!"
"Xiu Xin, let's go!"
Wu Sancong grabbed Wu Xiuxin and was about to take the Wu family away without waiting for the prince or princess to speak.
After all, it is safest to leave now. As long as the Wu family is not there, no matter what doubts Jiang Dongping has about the Wu family, they will become "one-sided statements". In that way, the Wu family may be able to escape unscathed.
But he thought too simply.
Jiang Dongping had been preparing for so many days just for this day. How could he let his plan fail so easily?
"Uncle, why are you in such a hurry to leave?" Jiang Dongping said in a cold voice, quickly moving in front of the Wu family and blocking their way.
Wu Xiuxin looked at him, her heart chilled. "Your Highness, we grew up together, after all. Do you have to be so ruthless?"
"Absolute?" Jiang Dongping looked at her coldly, his heart as hard as a rock. "Wu Xiuxin, when you drugged my mother, did you feel that you were being ruthless?"
