Chapter 125 Abandoned Son
Old Madam Zhan was so angry that her heart ached, but she could do nothing.
She never expected that just wanting to teach Lin Yiwan a lesson, not only did she not hurt her at all, but she ended up getting Duo'er and Zhan Yu involved.
If she had known earlier, she shouldn't have acted so rashly.
She really regretted it!
At this time, Zhan Yu in the room was also feeling uneasy.
Although he had been recovering from the injury for a few days and the sharp wound was no longer visible, there was no guarantee that the palace doctor would be able to detect it.
He looked at the court doctor nervously, hoping that his old eyesight would fade.
However, things went against his wishes. A moment later, he heard the court doctor's obscure voice: "Reporting to the Marquis, the young master's wound was caused by someone cutting with a sharp dagger!"
Zhan Yu immediately denied it: "No, you're talking nonsense, it wasn't cut by a dagger at all, it was a bruise from riding a horse!"
The court doctor argued, "A contusion is just rotten skin, but yours is just a broken section, which is completely different!"
Zhan Yan shouted to the Shadow Soul outside, then he walked in quickly and placed a small glass bottle in front of the court doctor: "Take a look, is this the missing part?"
Zhan Yu was shocked all over. He never thought that Zhan Yan would find the thing that was cut off from him.
In other words, he already knew that it was him who was planning to violate Lin Yiwan in the lotus pond that day?
The reason he asked the palace doctor to examine him this time was just to confirm his guilt, remove him from the family tree with good reason, and drive him out of the Marquis' Mansion!
He, he has such a vicious mind!
After realizing what was happening, he sank to his knees before Zhan Yan and begged, "Father, I was wrong. I know I was wrong. It's all my fault. I was in the lotus pond that day just wanting to make some lotus leaf tea for you, but I never thought that my mother would mistake me for an assassin!"
There was a chill in Zhan Yan's eyes, but his expression remained calm.
He asked in a deep voice, "Are you now admitting that the assassin hiding in the lotus pond that day was you?"
Zhan Yu nodded with difficulty: "Although my son is hiding in the lotus pond, he is not an assassin. I don't want to hurt my mother!"
Zhan Yan didn't hesitate any longer and walked out quickly, saying, "Please ask all the elders to open the Zhan family tree and remove Zhan Yu's name from my Zhan Yan lineage!"
Old Madam Zhan's body was shaking violently, but she knew she couldn't fall down, otherwise no one would be able to save her grandson.
She quickly stopped him: "Zhan Yan, you can't be so cruel. For all these years when you were not in the mansion, he was the one who helped you, as a son, to fulfill your filial duty. How can you just remove him like that?"
Zhan Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at her: "You raised him to this age, shouldn't he be filial to you? Did those nice things in his room get blown in by the wind? You bought them for him, isn't that enough?"
Old Madam Zhan felt a little guilty. She favored Zhan Yu too much, but that was because he was her own grandson.
She tried to persuade him, "Yan'er, he already knows he's wrong. Can't you just give him another chance? Aren't you afraid of being branded as cruel and ruthless?"
Zhan Yan suddenly stopped in his tracks. "Do you know where he's injured? I already have a hidden illness, how can I have another son who can't carry on my family line? He's made mistakes time and time again, and I've already given him enough chances!"
Seeing that Zhan Yan was unmoved, Madam Zhan looked anxiously at the silent Lin Yiwan and said, "Say something! This is all because of you. You can't just sit there and watch our mansion fall apart because of you!"
Lin Yiwan quickly put on a pitiful look and reached out to pull Zhan Yan's sleeve. "My Lord, didn't you hear the old lady yelling at me? Isn't she calling me a troublemaker? You better spare Zhan Yu right now, or the old lady will definitely not let me have a good time in the mansion!"
Old Madam Zhan’s expression suddenly changed. “You are so good, Lin Yiwan. I asked you to help plead for mercy, not to fan the flames.”
As expected, Zhan Yan said without hesitation: "Since mother is so reluctant to let Zhan Yu go, then move out of the Marquis' Mansion with him!"
Madam Zhan asked in disbelief, "Zhan Yan, are you going to drive me away too? Are you going to be the most unfilial son in this dynasty?"
Zhan Yan explained seriously: "I didn't drive you away. It's just that you can't bear to leave Zhan Yu. I don't want you and your grandson to be separated!"
Madam Zhan threw a tantrum and said, "I won't leave, and neither can Yu'er. He's my grandson, and no one can change that. If you remove him from the family tree, I'll crash into the gate of the ancestral hall and die. It's up to you to do what you want!"
After the words fell, several elders of the Zhan family looked a little embarrassed.
They all urged, "My Lord, how about we discuss this further? After all, the reputation of the Marquisate is the most important thing!"
Zhan Yan frowned and said, "Yinghun, hand Zhan Yu over to the authorities on the charge of colluding with the bandit leader to murder the Zhan family girl. Let them sentence her severely!"
"Yes!" Yinghun responded loudly, then grabbed Zhan Yu's arm and dragged him out.
Old Madam Zhan was furious. Zhan Yan was really cruel.
Not only did he want to destroy Zhan Yu, he also wanted to let everyone know that Zhan Duoer had been raped. He wanted to completely destroy the two siblings!
Her head was buzzing, and she could hear Zhan Yu's desperate cries in her ears: "Grandma, save me, I don't want to go to the government, I don't want to go to jail!"
Old Madam Zhan took a deep breath. Yes, for Zhan Yu’s crime, going to jail is a small matter, but exile is a big matter!
If she is sentenced to exile to a cold and bitter place, she will never see her only grandson again in her life.
Zhan Yan is such a scoundrel!
He deliberately forced her into a dilemma and forced her to compromise!
Madam Zhan seemed to have lost all her energy and spirit. She said dejectedly, "Zhan Yan, don't you just want to force me to agree to remove Zhan Yu from the family tree? Isn't it enough for me to agree?"
Zhan Yanshu said, "Mother, don't be embarrassed. You don't have to agree to it!"
Madam Zhan collapsed and yelled, "I promise to remove Zhan Yu from your name immediately. From now on, he is no longer your son, Zhan Yan!"
Zhan Yan reminded him, "I'm no longer your grandson unless you move out of the Marquis' Mansion!"
Old Madam Zhan's eyes rolled back and she fainted instantly.
Zhan Yu was directly kicked out of the Marquis' Mansion without even being allowed to pack his things.
He walked onto the street in a disheveled state, feeling only mocking and contemptuous gazes from all around him.
Someone lowered their voice and muttered, "Isn't this the noble and unrivaled heir of the Marquisate? He used to be so glorious, but now he's down and out, worse than a beggar!"
Someone nearby echoed, "I heard he was expelled from the Marquis' Mansion today. The elders in charge of the Zhan family just left!"
Zhan Yu's eyes instantly turned blood red, and he roared angrily: "I didn't, I was not expelled from the Marquis' Mansion, I am still my grandmother's grandson, a child of the Zhan family!"
