Chapter 225 If you want to find fault, you can always find a pretext.



When Zhu Yanniang was pulled back to the princess's residence from the brothel by Feng Qin, she was a little dazed. This Prime Minister Chen was really inhuman, working in the middle of the night.

Why would he go looking for his wife if he's not sleeping with her?

Upon entering the study, Zhu Yanniang said with a cold face:

"It would be best if something happened to Shen Xiang, otherwise I, the sect leader, would make sure you don't get to hold your wife during your honeymoon."

"It was your idea that Cen Xi hasn't gotten pregnant for so long."

Shen Jinchen tapped on the table and asked directly.

"Oh, so you only realized it now? She didn't want to have your child, so I taught her a secret technique. Shen Xiang kidnapped her and now he wants to keep her trapped by the child?"

Zhu Yanniang disliked this person intensely; if she weren't outmatched, she would have loved to punch him a couple of times.

"By cutting off my escape route like this, Sect Master, haven't you ever considered that one day I might destroy your Pure Maiden Sect?"

Shen Jinchen's eyes were extremely cold. His guess was right; it really was this woman who was behind it.

"I never thought that the Su Nu Sect would disband long ago. The remaining girls all run brothels in Shangyang City. That's Cen Xi's territory. If you mess with them, you can forget about ever having children again."

Zhu Yanniang disliked threats from the start. Even though the person in front of her was not someone to be trifled with, she was quite stubborn. Besides, she had a powerful backer; what was she afraid of?

"Is that so? Even if I kill Cen Xi, I can't escape my grasp. No children? I can adopt one. Zhu Yanniang, I advise you not to challenge my bottom line."

Shen Jinchen grabbed Zhu Yanniang by the neck and threatened her coldly.

"Your mother... is a madman."

Zhu Yanniang forced out these words from her throat.

"Tell me! How can I get her pregnant? Good boy, tell me, and I'll let you go tonight out of respect for her."

Shen Jinchen threw Zhu Yanniang to the ground and interrogated her.

"Unless she consents, I will never let her get pregnant, no matter what. Even if you beat me to death, kill me, or strangle me, the result will be the same."

Zhu Yanniang said with a cool smile.

"Fengqin, go and call Cen Xi over."

Shen Jinchen is determined to strike hard today; he will resolve the issue of the child no matter what.

"Okay!"

Fengqin sensed that something big was about to happen, so she took off running.

He quickly led the sleepy-eyed Cen Xi to the study.

"What is Shen Jinchen up to now? What kind of trouble is he going to cause this time? Can't a person get a good night's sleep?"

Cen Xi chuckled and complained as soon as she entered.

"You can't get pregnant, that's what she taught you."

Shen Jinchen pointed to the person on the ground and asked.

"Yes, what's wrong?"

Cen Xi answered as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

"Then, don't use it again. My friend, you've broken my family heirloom today. If you just behave yourself, I can let this woman go and not pursue anything. Otherwise, I'll send her to death row and let her never see the light of day again."

Although Shen Jinchen was still making threatening remarks, his momentum had weakened somewhat.

"I... when did I break your family heirloom?"

Zhu Yanniang found it all very strange.

"Fengqin, you just said you saw it."

Shen Jinchen's serious performance conveyed the meaning of "If you want to condemn someone, you can always find a pretext."

"Yes, I saw it. I'll send this lady to the death row in a bit."

Feng Qin was a perfect match for Shen Jinchen's performance.

Cen Xi: "..."

Zhu Yanniang: "..."

They never expected this!

Cen Xi looked Shen Jinchen up and down to make sure he was a normal person before she couldn't help but ask:

"Are you out of your mind?"

"The eldest princess had better face the truth. Once she's in prison, she'll never get out."

Shen Jinchen glanced at Cen Xi.

"You're serious."

Cen Xi asked with a cold face.

"Yes, unless you have my child and stop using contraception, since she taught you all those methods, she has to take responsibility for it. She'll be released from jail the day you get pregnant."

Shen Jinchen knew nothing else that could threaten her, but Zhu Yanniang was the best leverage.

"Alright, Yan Niang, you can go ahead. I'll come pick you up in a couple of days."

Cen Xi neither agreed nor refuted, only saying this one sentence.

"Don't even think about rescuing her. Everyone in the Ministry of Justice is under my control. No matter how hard you try, you won't be able to get her out. Fengqin, take her away."

Shen Jinchen knew she didn't believe Zhu Yanniang had smashed the family heirloom, but that was the best excuse to use.

So he's determined to act tough today, no matter what.

"You want children so badly? Fine, I'll have them for you, a whole litter. Let her go first. Shen Jinchen, you're getting more and more shameless."

Cen Xi never expected that Shen Jinchen would use Zhu Yanniang to threaten him.

Oh!

They even said they broke a family heirloom; what a fabrication!

"No, your words are not credible. We have to wait until you are pregnant before we talk about it."

Shen Jinchen looked at Cen Xi as if he were being unreasonable.

"Then Zhu Yanniang, you stay in prison. I'll come back to rescue you once I'm fully pregnant."

Cen Xi gave Zhu Yanniang a knowing look and walked out of the study.

"After inserting two needles into her Guanmen and Taiyi acupoints, the exercises I taught her before will be useless."

Zhu Yanniang was discouraged. She closed her eyes and betrayed Cen Xi directly.

Damn, she had a righteous look on her face.

That brat, she just ignores everything and leaves her like that. Doesn't she have any sense of morality at all?

"Okay, Fengqin, see her out."

After receiving a satisfactory answer, Shen Jinchen instantly lost interest in imprisoning Zhu Yanniang.
