Chapter 114: Get the Shen Family Out
Song Shiwei shook her head and stopped thinking about it. When she came out of the dungeon, she saw a man standing in the yard.
He was dressed in gorgeous clothes, looking extremely handsome. There was a faint smile in his eyes when he looked at her, which was gentle and intoxicating.
She trotted a few steps to him and asked, "Why are you here?"
Xiao Jingheng said: "Of course I'm here to pick up my top scholar."
Unfortunately, when he left the palace, the parade had already ended.
It was his regret that he could not see Qingqing's gracefulness. Knowing that she came to Dali Temple, he waited for her here.
Song Shiwei glanced at him and said, "Have you forgotten what I said before? You are still not in the limelight now. We need to keep our distance."
Xiao Jingheng: “…”
He reminded with a sullen face: "Mr. Zhuangyuan, have you forgotten that His Majesty asked you and me to formulate the rules for women to divorce their husbands?"
Song Shiwei almost forgot that His Majesty had indeed handed this matter over to her and Xiao Jingheng.
This way, they now have a reason to go out together and there is no need to hide it.
She coughed lightly and said, "But I still have things to do."
Xiao Jingheng asked her: "What else?"
Shen Linchuan has been divorced and the imperial edict has been announced to the world. I wonder what else Qingqing has to do?
Song Shiwei shrugged and said, "Of course it's a very gratifying thing."
She winked at Xiao Jingheng playfully, then turned and walked out of the Dali Temple.
Xiao Jingheng was curious, so he followed her out the door.
The two of them came to the Shen family in a carriage.
Just as Xiao Jingheng was about to get off the car, he was stopped by Song Shiwei, who said, “You’d better stay in the carriage.
The Shen family is unreasonable. If they saw you and me together, I don’t know how to deal with it.”
Xiao Jingheng choked and had to stay in the carriage obediently.
Song Shiwei stood in front of the Shen family's gate, followed by the guards borrowed from Xiao Jingheng.
Seeing this, the people gathered around, waiting to watch the fun.
Song Shiwei put her hands on her waist and waved her hand to the guards behind her, saying, "Drive the Shen family out."
The guards rushed in immediately.
Soon, Old Madam Shen, Shen Linzhou and Shen Suyun were driven out.
The old lady has been bedridden since she learned about her son's affair with Zhao Huaijin.
When she heard today that Song Shiwei had won the top spot in the imperial examination, she thought her son was saved and his condition had improved a little.
Now she was driven out by a group of guards and she didn't know what had happened.
“Who are you and why do you want to trespass into my Shen’s house?
I tell you, my daughter-in-law is now the top scholar, how can I allow you to be so presumptuous?"
Old Madam Shen, supported by Shen Suyun and Shen Linzhou, asked the guards angrily.
"Is the old lady talking about me?"
Song Shiwei spoke, she came over and said with a smile: "The old lady now admits that I am your daughter-in-law?
Unfortunately it's too late, I have already divorced your son.
Your Majesty personally issued an edict and announced it to the world. Now everyone knows that I divorced Shen Linchuan, and I have nothing to do with your Shen family anymore."
Old Madam Shen's eyes widened: "Divorce your husband? That's ridiculous. How can a woman like you divorce your husband?"
"Why not?"
Someone in the crowd shouted passionately, "Miss Song is appealing to His Majesty on behalf of all women in the world, asking for the right to divorce our husbands.
She is a role model for women in Nanli, and your Shen family is not worthy of Miss Song at all."
"Yes, the dirty deeds of your family have spread everywhere. Miss Song has been merciful by not letting His Majesty take your lives."
The people were all speaking out to express their grievances for Song Shiwei.
Old Madam Shen was so ashamed that she looked at Song Shiwei and said, "Even if you, Song Shiwei, are now the top scholar and have great success, what qualifications do you have to kick us out?"
Song Shiwei smiled and said, "How can you not be qualified? Has the old lady forgotten that I have already bought this house, and the title deed is still in my hands? This is my house.
Since I have no relationship with your Shen family anymore, isn't it only natural for me to kick you out?"
"you……"
Old Madam Shen pointed at Song Shiwei, her whole body trembling: "You have been plotting to take over my house from the beginning."
"joke."
Song Shiwei snorted and said, "I spent money to redeem this house.
If it weren't for me, this house would have been taken away by you long ago.
I let you live here because we are a family.
Now that I am no longer a wife of the Shen family, you can no longer live in my house."
"Song Shiwei, how can you be so vicious? My mother is still sick. If you drive us out, won't you be putting us to death?"
Shen Suyun scolded harshly.
Song Shiwei said: "What does your mother's life or death have to do with me?
You say I'm vicious, but don't you know what unscrupulous things your Shen family has done? "
She pointed at Shen Linzhou and said, "Madam, do you still remember that Shen Linzhou appeared in the bridal chamber on the wedding night?
Do you really think that Shen Linzhou is confused for a moment because he is dissatisfied with Shen Linchuan?
It was Shen Linchuan who was inhumane, so he asked his elder brother to consummate the marriage on his behalf.
I discovered it, and Shen Linchuan pushed all the blame onto Shen Linzhou in order to protect himself."
Old Madam Shen looked at her eldest son in shock and asked, "Is what she said true?"
Shen Linzhou didn't expect that Song Shiwei had already known the truth. He was a little flustered for a moment and didn't know how to explain it.
Song Shiwei continued, "Shen Linzhou, Linggu said that you have become a useless person now and can no longer marry and have children. Do you know why you have become like this?"
Shen Linzhou's expression changed, and he stammered, "Do you know?"
Song Shiwei shrugged and said, "The reason you became like this is all because of Shen Linchuan.
On the wedding night, he lit a very bad drug in the bridal chamber. This kind of drug is harmless to women, but if a man takes it excessively and does not relieve himself, he will become a disabled person.
Shen Linchuan knew that the truth was revealed, but he did not tell you about the drugs and asked you to seek medical treatment immediately.
It will destroy your life and make you unable to be a normal man anymore.
This is the good brother you are wholeheartedly protecting."
Shen Linzhou widened his eyes in disbelief. The reason why he became a disabled person was actually caused by his second brother?
He froze in place, as if struck by lightning.
Seeing that Madam Shen's face was getting paler, Song Shiwei said with a sigh, "What a pity, Madam.
Both of your sons have become disabled. Your Shen family...is extinct. I wonder if this is retribution."
"No!"
Old Madam Shen shook her head. She held onto Shen Linzhou's arm and said, "Zhou'er, tell me if what she said is true. Do you really...can't take it anymore?"
Shen Linzhou lowered his head, his face showing some pain and regret, and said in a choked voice: "Mom, I'm sorry!"
This one sentence startled Madam Shen so much that her eyes turned black and her gaze became dull. She didn't react for a long time as if she had lost her soul.
After a while, a "puff" sound was heard.
Old Madam Shen spat out a mouthful of blood and fell down staggeringly.
