Chapter 97 I Can't Spare You
"Yes, he is my husband Shen Linchuan."
Song Shiwei looked at Shen Linchuan and asked curiously, "Husband, why are you here?"
"I……"
Shen Linchuan didn't expect to meet Song Shiwei here and be caught by her.
Although she also agreed with him marrying Song Mingzhu, it was inappropriate for him to meet with Song Mingzhu here behind her back.
What's more, Baiyun Temple is a nunnery and men are not allowed to enter.
He hurriedly said, "Madam, please listen to my explanation. I just heard that Sister Mingzhu was sent to Baiyun Temple by my father-in-law because of me, and I felt bad about it, so I came here to apologize."
Song Shiwei frowned and said, "Who said my sister was sent here because of you?
She was punished by her father to come here to reflect on her mistakes because she murdered her brother. What does it have to do with you?"
Shen Linchuan was shocked when he heard this.
She thought Song Mingzhu was sent to Baiyun Temple because of the previous incident, but she didn't expect it was because she murdered Cheng Enbo's illegitimate son.
What a fool she is. Uncle Cheng En finally got such a precious son, but she has to bring bad luck to him at this time.
He sent his daughter to Baiyun Temple for an illegitimate child. It seems that Cheng Enbo was extremely disappointed with his daughter.
What's the point of marrying a daughter who is not loved by Lord Cheng En?
In such a short period of time, Shen Linchuan had already thought about all the pros and cons.
Although Huici had lived in the temple for a long time, she had heard pilgrims in the temple mention the eldest daughter of the Song family and her husband.
And she has always hated this kind of fickle and heartless man the most.
Her face darkened and she scolded him sternly, "No matter who you are, sneaking into my Baiyun Temple to have a tryst with a woman there is a violation of the rules of my temple. I will not forgive you today no matter what."
She shouted, "Jingxin, go report to the police."
"No, no, no."
Suddenly a voice was heard outside the door, and then Old Madam Shen and Shen Suyun hurried in.
The two of them were supposed to take a walk outside.
However, Shen Suyun felt bored, and seeing that the scenery in the back mountain was nice, she went for a walk in the back mountain with Old Madam Shen.
When she came back, she found that her son had been discovered having a secret meeting with Song Mingzhu.
Old Madam Shen came over and was stunned to see Song Shiwei here too, but then she reacted and pointed at her and started to attack her: "You are so bad, Song Shiwei.
You can't bear to see my son and Mingzhu together, so you set up a trap to harm him. You have such a cruel heart. Aren't you afraid that my son will divorce you?"
Song Shiwei said, "Mother-in-law, what you said is really unreasonable. I didn't know that my husband was coming here beforehand, so how could I have foreseen it and come here to catch him cheating?"
Madam Shen asked her, "Then why did you come here?"
Song Shiwei pointed to the package in Jingque's hand behind her and said, "Mother is worried about Sister Mingzhu, but she is not feeling well and cannot come to visit in person, so she asked me to bring some clothes over."
Old Madam Shen frowned. Could it really be such a coincidence?
No one except their own family knew that they were coming to Baiyun Temple.
But even if no one knew, she had to pin the blame of jealousy on Song Shiwei.
She snorted and said, "How can it be such a coincidence? I think it's obvious that you can't stand seeing Chuan'er and Mingzhu together.
I remember that Chuan'er and the Cheng'en Marquis's mansion originally proposed to marry Mingzhu, not you.
Now that Chuan'er and Mingzhu are in love, you want to stop them. You are such a jealous woman."
Huici couldn't listen any longer. It was totally unreasonable for Old Madam Shen to make such speculations about her own daughter-in-law without knowing right from wrong.
She said to Jingxin who was still standing there in a daze: "Why are you still standing there? Go report to the police."
Madam Shen's expression changed and she said to Huici, "Master, why do we need to alert the government about such a trivial matter?
It was wrong for Chuan'er to come to Baiyun Temple, but he was just worried that Mingzhu would come to visit.
I will apologize to the master on his behalf, and ask the master to forgive him this time."
Huici said: "Since the establishment of Baiyun Temple, men have not been allowed to enter.
Master Shen has violated the rules of Baiyun Temple and damaged the reputation of my disciples. If I ignore it, once the matter spreads, what prestige will Baiyun Temple have in the capital?"
"Master Huici said it well."
A woman in her forties came over with her maid.
She clasped her hands together and bowed to Huici, saying, "We should not be soft-hearted to such a lunatic. Baiyun Temple is a pure place, how can we allow him to defile it with his filthiness."
Seeing that the man was dressed simply, Old Lady Shen thought he was just an ordinary pilgrim. She said unkindly, "Who are you? Stop meddling in other people's business. Do you know who my son is?"
She snorted, "My son is the top scholar in Qingzhou Prefecture, the son-in-law of the Cheng'en Marquis's mansion, and the future top scholar."
The woman sneered with disdain: "Who did I think he was? Turns out to be just a scholar who has not yet entered the government.
You are such a shameless future champion."
She turned around and said to the maid behind her, "Go to the Dali Temple and report to the authorities. Say that this lady was disturbed by thieves while worshipping Buddha at Baiyun Temple."
"Yes."
The maid knelt down, bowed, turned around and left.
Seeing this, Old Madam Shen's face froze and she asked in a scolding voice, "Who are you and why are you making things difficult for us?"
The maid following behind the woman said dignifiedly, "My wife is the wife of the current Censor Wu.
My wife often worships Buddha at Baiyun Temple and has never encountered such a thing before.
The Baiyun Temple is a pure place for Buddhism. All the disciples in the temple are women, and men are not allowed to enter.
No matter who your son is, if he violates the rules of the temple, he should be reported to the authorities for investigation."
Upon hearing that the woman in plain clothes in front of him was actually the wife of the Censor, Shen Linchuan's face turned pale with fright.
He hurriedly bowed and said, "Please forgive me, madam. It was my mother who was blind and offended you."
Mrs. Wu raised her hand to interrupt him: "There's no need to say anything. Even if the king of heaven came today, it would be useless."
Song Shiwei lowered her head, resisting the urge to laugh.
Mrs. Wu's husband was the imperial censor of the dynasty. He was always impartial and impartial in supervising all officials and making remonstrances to the emperor. Unexpectedly, his wife was the same.
I'm afraid that Mrs. Wu's appearance here is not a coincidence, it should be arranged by Qin Muyan. It seems that Shen Linchuan can't escape today.
"Miss."
Shen Linchuan couldn't help feeling a little scared when he saw that Mrs. Wu was serious about it. Now the only person he could count on was Song Shiwei.
As long as she pleaded for him, this matter might be over.
Although Mrs. Shen was shallow, she knew that the Censor was a high-ranking official.
He was afraid that his son would be implicated, so he quickly said to Song Shiwei: "You are still the wife of the Shen family. Do you want to bear to watch Chuan'er being captured by the government?"
Shen Suyun also said anxiously: "Sister-in-law, please say something."
"Ah."
Madam Wu sneered, "You Shen family are really shameless.
You just said you wanted to divorce Miss Song, but now you treat her as a wife of the Shen family and want her to plead for your son.
Not to mention Mrs. Shen, you actually helped your son have an affair with another woman here. This is the first time in history that this has happened.
It's so pitiful that Miss Song married into such a morally corrupt family.
But even if you beg her, it will be useless. This lady will not give face to anyone."
