A shocking secret news broke out in the Ding capital.
First, in the early morning before the sky brightened, there was a middle-aged man kneeling in front of the yamen and beating the drum to cry out for injustice, saying that the Third Master of the Shen residence, Shen Wan, had forcibly abducted a woman and made her a concubine, which was not tolerated by Heaven and Earth. Although the man looked like a third-rate lowly person, it was unknown where he had inherited a good tongue. It could almost be said that his tongue was like a lotus flower. Even talking and singing was very exciting and in a short time it attracted a large group of commoners to watch the bustle. In less than half an hour, the entire Ding capital knew about this matter.
Because of the heated lawsuit between the Chen and Shen family, the commoners in the Ding capital knew a lot about this legendary noble concubine, Young Lady Chang Zai Qing. Shen Wan was willing to divorce his wife of many years for her, and even did it without the slightest bit of face. Everyone would speculate more. Some busybodies inquired that Cang Zai Qing was the daughter of Old General Shen's old friend. She was well-educated, gentle and elegant, and her temperament was even better than Chen Rou Qiu. She was even pregnant with Shen Wan's child, so naturally people's hearts would be biased towards Cang Zai Qing.
But early in the morning today, this middle aged man brought along a youth to kneel in front of the yamen's doors and smashed the faces of those who said that Cang Zai Qing was good.
It was said that Shen Wan abducted other's wife, but everyone were not fools. The distance between the Liu province and the Ding capital was not close, and in the beginning it was Cang Zai Qing herself who came to the Shen residence to seek shelter, and also claimed that she was not married. One fear that Cang Zai Qing was the one who threw herself at it. Thinking about it, Shen Wan was intelligent and refined for a lifetime, but at the end he was unable to see Chang Zai Qing's true face. After raising another's wife for such a long time, the green hat on his head could already be planted with grass.
As for the words that the man said, no one doubted it at all. One reason was that the man was still holding the marriage certificate in his hands and the white and black words and even the official seal were all in Cang Zai Qing's name. Secondly, the young man who came along looked exactly like Chang Zau Qing, except that he looked a little more silent and at a loss.
Everyone pointed at him and discussed, taking it as a joke that was hard to come by in a few decades. It was said that there were many disputes in wealthy families, but he didn't expect the master of a wealthy family to be so muddle-headed. Originally if it was in the past, this matter could be suppressed and it would not spread throughout the entire Ding capital so quickly. But today, this man had appeared out of the blue, beating the drum early in the morning to complain about his grievances. It was difficult to suppress it. Besides, the yamen's servants also knew how to read people's expressions. Now that Shen Wan's entire family was locked up in prison, who would care about Shen Wan's reputation? They joined the crowd in watching the joke.
In the Chen residence, in a remote courtyard, Chen Rou Qiu was convulsing with laughter when she heard the news that Shiqing had inquired from outside.
She had become more and more mischievous, and she had become even more slovenly. The more he behaved like this, the more he was disliked in the Chen family. But she did not care much about it as the meaning of living was to pull down the Chen family and there was no doubt that Chen Rou Qiu had done it.
Chen Rou Qiu did it. After being Shen Wan's wife for so many years, she knew something about Shen Wan's life. Adding up bits and pieces, and also bribing a servant under Shen Wan to send this evidence to the hands of Shen Wan's nemesis. She waited uneasily for the news and finally the good news came.
The more Chen Rou Qiu loved Shen Wan, the more she hated him. It was Shen Wan who made her turn into such a sorry state, so she must not let Chang Zau Qing and Shen Wan live well. When she knew that the entire Shen family was in prison, Chen Rou Qiu was happy but she did not expect that on the second day, it was actually revealed that Chang Zau Qing had a husband and son.
She did not expect that she, who had been astute for a lifetime, would actually lose to a female who abandoned her husband and son. Chen Rou Qiu was originally laughing crazily but as she laughed, she felt that there was some bitterness at the corner of her mouth. If she was calmer in the beginning and not so anxious, and sent people to the Liu province to investigate, perhaps the result would not be like this. Shen Wan was a person who could not tolerate sand in his eyes and knew of Chang Zau Qing's identity. Without Chen Rou Qiu saying it, he would hate Chang Zau Qing even more.
