Xunmi's eyes flashed with a faint light. She had a plan in her heart.
She stood obediently beside Prince An, not taking any action or changing her expression.
Shangguan Yan was enlightened by her daughter. In addition, her heart was really cold. She stepped forward and knelt.
"Your Majesty, this subject requests Your Majesty to be a witness for this subject."
Zongzheng Muye looked at Shangguan Yan with interest. They could be considered childhood sweethearts.
How could he not know how soft her temper was? It was rare for her to ask for his help this time.
"What matter does the Prime Minister's wife have for you to solemnly beg me?"
Shangguan Yan kowtowed and spoke with a firm expression.
"This subject wants to divorce my husband today."
She didn't care how much shock her words brought to the people in the hall and continued to narrate.
"This subject has been married to the Prime Minister for twenty years. At that time, the Prime Minister was just a small scholar."
"It was because of this subject's father's help that he reached this step."
"But the Prime Minister didn't have the slightest bit of gratitude. All these years, he connived with his concubines to suppress this subject. This subject endured it."
"But now, he has gone from bad to worse and wants to murder this subject's son and daughter."
"He even did such a ridiculous thing. This subject is just a woman, very timid."
"All I ask is for my son and daughter to live a peaceful life. If this can't be satisfied, then what was the point of this subject's forbearance all these years?"
Shangguan Yan's face was full of tears. More than twenty years ah.
If she hadn't insisted on marrying Wenren Xiang, she wouldn't have ended up like this.
She even almost caused her daughter to be cursed by thousands. Fortunately, it wasn't too late.
Xunmi and Wenren Lu had already knelt behind their mother when Shangguan Yan spoke.
After the previous stimulation, Wenren Xiang was once again rooted to the ground. He glared at Shangguan Yan kneeling on the ground.
He had never imagined that after so many years, a person who had always been weak, would actually dare to say such a shocking thing.
"Your Majesty, please make a decision for this subject. From today onwards, I, Shangguan Yan, and my son and daughter will have nothing to do with the Prime Minister's residence."
She took the pen and paper that Prince An had just sent over and quickly wrote down the letter of divorce.
After pressing her handprint, Shangguan Yan presented the divorce letter to the person in the high position with both hands.
She brought it up in front of the Emperor. Not only did she want to seek justice for herself, but she also wanted to give the Prime Minister's manor a tight slap.
Since they dared to scheme against her daughter, they shouldn't blame her for biting back at them.
Her father hadn't died yet, so it wasn't the turn of some dogs from the Prime Minister's Estate to bully him to such an extent.
Perhaps she had really thought it through and understood that Shangguan Yan had abandoned the peace she had when she was a girl.
Reality told her that even if you didn't fight for it, it didn't mean that others would let you go.
Xunmi's eyes lit up. She was relieved to see her mother like this.
This was the only way that his mother would not be bullied when he or his younger brother was not by her side.
This time, Zongzheng Muye was really shocked by Shangguan Yan. In thousands of years, this was the first time he heard of a wife divorcing her husband.
In this dynasty where men were the masters and women were only vassals, no one would not be shocked to encounter such a case.
"Hahahaha, good, good. This is the first time Little Sister Yan is begging Zhen, how can Zhen not agree?"
"Xiao Quanzi, bring Zhen's imperial jade seal."
Zongzheng Muye happily stamped the imperial jade seal on the divorce paper, his heart sighing with emotion.
He also wrote two imperial edicts. There were too many things today, he needed to sort them out properly.
"Crown Prince, since you don't regret it, then stay in the Crown Prince's Estate for the time being. Think about it carefully. You are not allowed to leave the Estate without being summoned."
"Wenren Xunmi Zhong Lin Yuxiu, her charm is enough to topple cities. She has won Zhen's heart and is specially conferred the title of Princess Rou Jia."
He waved his hand and dismissed the group of people.
As for his younger brother's glare, he didn't see it at all. Really!
Zongzheng Mufeng was very unhappy. He had already hinted to his imperial brother so clearly, but his imperial brother actually pretended not to see it. Really.
Even if his imperial brother didn't help him, he would help himself. Humph.
The Crown Prince was already dumbfounded. He could only watch as his imperial father left.
In hindsight, he looked at his lover beside him and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.
Although he didn't regret marrying the person he liked, it didn't mean that he was willing to give up his power.
His imperial father obviously wanted to confine him, and there was no time limit. He didn't dare to think about what this meant.
Wenren Yunfei also suffered a blow today. That person who was clearly suppressed by her had actually turned the tables overnight.
Not only did she obtain the Emperor's favor, she even seduced that handsome An Wang.
Damn it, she thought that she purposely got close to An Wang, but he didn't even look at her.
Why, she was just a native girl. She was the female lead, the one who was favored by the heavens.
Wasn't it written in novels? Those who transmigrated were all glorious and didn't lack fame and money.
Since she, Wenren Yunfei, obtained this opportunity, didn't she come to this world to enjoy the pursuit of everyone?
The devil in her heart was constantly breeding. Her distorted worldview was already on the verge of shattering.
Xunmi happily supported her mother and brother back to the Duke's Estate. When she left, she didn't even look at that scum who still hadn't regained his senses.
Zongzheng Mufeng was very resentful, but there was nothing he could do. He could only bitterly leave after sending the beauty back to the Duke's Estate.
He decided to go back and prepare the betrothal gifts. He would come back tomorrow to propose marriage.
In short, if the mountain didn't come, then he would go to the mountain.
The Duke, Shangguan Lian, was close to seventy years old. He had been cultivating at home and didn't care about worldly affairs.
He spent his life in the military and had two sons and one daughter. He had always pampered his daughter.
He didn't object to his daughter's request. This was also why a small scholar could marry the Duke's daughter.
His two sons were at the border. When he suddenly heard news about his grandson today, he was really angry.
He wasn't dead yet, but he already dared to abuse the Duke's Estate's young miss.
But before he could do anything, the servant came again and said that his young miss had divorced the Prime Minister.
He was stunned for a moment, then slapped the table and laughed out loud. He didn't forget to praise her.
"As expected of my, Shangguan Lian's, daughter. Good, good."
"Quickly go and tidy up the room. Young Miss, Young Miss, and Young Master are coming back to live."
Just as he finished preparing everything, Shangguan Yan brought her children into the Duke's Estate.
The Duke hadn't seen his daughter and grandchildren for many years. He missed them very much.
At night, the whole family gathered together. It was warm and beautiful.
On the other side, Wenren Xiang returned home in a daze. Only then did he realize that he, the dignified Prime Minister, was divorced by his wife.
If this spread out, how could he establish himself in the Capital? How could he face people?
But no matter how resentful he was, there was nothing he could do. The Emperor had already agreed.
He clutched the paper in his hand tightly and wanted to tear it up. But when he saw the bright red words' By Heaven's Will ', he could only endure it.
Some families were happy, some were sad. Xunmi and Prince An were happy.
