Chapter 124
Excuse?
Zuo Shaoqing of Taichang Temple had never thought of this.
How is this possible? Well, his wife is so good to the children, how could she find so many excuses to prevent her daughter from getting married?
No, he doesn't believe it!
[Left Junior Secretary of the Imperial Court, tsk tsk tsk, I originally thought that the most cuckolded person in the entire court was the old emperor, until the gatekeeper appeared later, a man whose hair was even greener than the old emperor's. Now, the Left Junior Secretary of the Imperial Court has appeared! ]
Zuo Shaoqing of Taichang Temple did not react.
No one reacted.
Aren't you talking about the wife of Zuo Shaoqing of Taichang Temple? How did it get to the point where Zuo Shaoqing of Taichang Temple's hair turned green?
You can't...
Everyone was shocked. In an instant, all the civil and military officials in the court, including the old emperor, set their eyes on Zuo Shaoqing of Taichang Temple.
The Right Junior Secretary of the Taichang Temple could not help but suppress the voice that was gloating.
"You're not raising someone else's child, are you?"
The Left Shaoqing of the Taichang Temple had a dark face and shook his head firmly.
"impossible."
[Oh my god, this melon is so big???]
Shen Zhiyi’s eyes widened, and his whole body was excited.
[The wife of the Left Junior Minister of the Taichang Temple is the daughter of the Minister of the Honglu Temple.]
Everyone looked at the Minister of the Ministry of Rites again.
The Minister of the Ministry of Rites swallowed and thought carefully about his daughter.
Well, I have too many daughters, and it took a while to find the right one.
But according to his family education, his daughter would definitely not do anything to cheat on someone.
The Minister of the Honglu Temple turned around and gave the Zuo Shaoqing of the Taichang Temple a firm look.
——Just rest assured, he has confidence in his daughter!
With the guarantee from the Minister of Honglu Temple, the Left Junior Minister of Taichang Temple suddenly felt confident.
His back, which had been bent slightly, straightened up again and he glanced at the people present.
See, his father-in-law said there was no problem.
[I was wondering, how could a daughter of an official family be so keen on entertaining customers in a brothel?]
“I’ll go!”
【Isn't this self-degradation?】
Shen Zhiyi was so absorbed in the big melon that the surrounding sounds were automatically filtered out by her.
To eat melons, you must have the spirit of eating melons.
Only by focusing wholeheartedly can you eat the most accurate melon.
In addition, all the civil and military officials in the hall were smart people. If one person couldn't hold back his voice, the people around him would reach out to suppress it.
After the voice died down, everyone's eyes shifted back and forth between the Minister of the Honglu Temple and the Zuo Shaoqing of the Taichang Temple.
The old emperor sat up straight, having long forgotten what he was going to say.
Some women who fell into prostitution were mostly forced into it. This is the first time I have seen one go to a brothel on her own initiative.
There is a big problem with the upbringing of the Minister of the Ministry of Rites.
The face of the Minister of the Ministry of Rites turned green, black, white, and all kinds of colors.
The left Shaoqing of Taichang Temple had a very green face.
[The wife of Zuo Shaoqing of the Taichang Temple went to many brothels that high-ranking officials had visited. So, your wife has been looking for excuses to reject those who came to propose marriage because she had had some affairs with their fathers.]
[Yes, that's right. It's not certain which of the four daughters' wives is Zuo Shaoqing of the Taichang Temple. It may be Zuo Shaoqing of the Taichang Temple, or it may not be. So to be on the safe side, all the daughters' marriages were rejected.]
Zuo Shaoqing of Taichang Temple felt like he was about to fall apart.
How, how could this be!
His colleague, the Right Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, patted the other's shoulder comfortingly.
He lowered his voice and said, "You should be more open-minded. The child may be yours or not, but your wife is 100% yours."
"roll!"
"Hey, I'm trying to persuade you with good intentions, why are you telling me to get lost?"
[This is already outrageous enough, and there are even more outrageous things to come. ]
[Who would have thought that the wife of the Left Junior Minister of the Ministry of Rites was not the legitimate daughter of the former Minister of the Ministry of Rites.]
"roar!"
Everyone was like wild animals in a melon field. After looking at the Left Junior Secretary of the Taichang Temple, they hurriedly looked at the Secretary of the Honglu Temple.
The old emperor was so excited that he couldn't help stroking his beard.
It's wonderful.
By the way, it is impossible that the Minister of the Ministry of Rites did not notice that his daughter had been replaced, right?
[This Honglu Temple Minister is a beast! ]
[Fifteen years ago, his wife died. Everyone should know this.]
The civil and military officials in the palace said: "I'm sorry, they don't know about this!" Shen Zhiyi, please tell me the details!
The old emperor's mind was working rapidly.
Who could have known that fifteen years ago, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites was still a local official?
He looked at Chen Decai next to him.
Chen Decai stammered for a moment, unable to utter a word.
"Your Majesty, it seems that the wife of this Minister of the Ministry of Rites has always been the same one. I haven't heard that his wife died."
“It’s useless.”
The old emperor lowered his voice and waved his hand to let Chen Decai go aside.
【Oh, no one seems to know, hahaha, great, how come I am the only one who knows this, woo woo woo. 】
Shen Zhiyi felt uncomfortable for a while, and suddenly thought of his cheap family members at home.
[The fact that the Minister of the Honglu Temple favored his concubine and killed his wife is worthy of everyone's knowledge, but I dare not, I will just go back and tell my step-parents and brother. ]
Favoring concubine and destroying wife?
How dare you?
Many people in the hall frowned and looked at the Minister of Honglu Temple with contempt.
The Minister of the Ministry of Rites stammered for a moment and defended himself in a low voice.
"I didn't! My first wife died of illness. You can't stop me from marrying a successor."
[This Minister of the Ministry of Rites has been brainwashing himself that his wife died of illness. Haha, unless there is something wrong with his brain, how could it be possible? Your wife was in such good health, how could she die of a sudden illness? ]
[The current wife of the Minister of the Ministry of Rites was once a concubine. She poisoned the former wife and she died suddenly overnight. I don't believe you don't know this.]
[When my late wife was alive, the Minister of the Honglu Temple doted on his concubine too much, and even brought his concubine with him to some social occasions instead of his wife.]
The Minister of the Ministry of Rites' face suddenly turned green, black, and colorful.
I didn't expect that something that had been hidden for so long would be revealed by Shen Zhiyi.
He looked at the Zuo Shaoqing of Taichang Temple with some resentment.
Taichang Temple Zuo Shaoqing: ???
[After the concubine became the legal wife, she originally wanted to send the daughter of the previous wife away, but the Minister of the Ministry of Rites disagreed no matter what.]
[Haha, I can understand this. It's nothing more than that your wife just died, and you immediately made your concubine your wife's wife. If you send your wife's child away, this reputation will spread, and you will definitely be spitted on by everyone when you go out. That's why you firmly oppose sending your wife's only child away.]
[The concubine also understood this, but seeing the child who looked so much like the late wife, she was more cunning than a needle, so she secretly sent the late wife's daughter away and took her own daughter who was raised in a brothel back home, just like that.]
All the civil and military officials in the court were stunned.
This Minister of the Ministry of Rites is really not picky.
