Li cried out in tears: "Madam Cong, I never thought you were such a person. I have been very kind to you.
Why did you poison my son? "
Li cried harder and harder and almost fainted from crying.
Shang Wanning asked a maid beside him to support Li, and he rushed to Nanny Cong and was about to hit her.
The guards at the side stopped Shang Wanning, but his hand was stopped in mid-air and did not hit Nanny Cong.
Shang Wanning stared at Nanny Cong with cold eyes and mouthed: "Mo Ge'er."
Madam Cong stopped yelling and looked at Li with disdain: "What do you mean you treat me well? You either beat or scold me every day."
Li frowned and glared at Nanny Cong while crying.
Madam Cong shouted angrily: "I have suffered so much injustice over the years. I have to live in fear every day. I will take revenge on you. I will kill your most promising son and make you regret it for the rest of your life. Haha..."
Nanny Cong laughed heartbreakingly.
Nanny Cong acted like this, and Li almost couldn't keep up with her play.
She cried and looked at Shang Yuanshan. "My son, it's all my fault. I have harmed you."
Shang Yuanshan was not moved at all, but on the surface he still pretended to be a filial son.
"Mother, I don't blame you. It's all Madam Cong's fault."
Shang Yuanshan looked at Liu Quan who was standing beside him. "Sir Liu, the person has been caught. Should we take him back for questioning?"
"Yes, I will take the people back right away."
Liu Quan ordered people to take Nanny Cong away.
But Liu Quan looked at Shang Yuanshan hesitantly, wanting to say something.
Shang Yuanshan said impatiently: "Just tell me what you have to say."
"General Shang, we need to investigate the matter of Wanhetang as soon as possible."
"First, find out why I was poisoned."
"But this..."
"Even if the whole family is executed, I will accompany you. What are you afraid of?"
"But I don't want to..."
"Huh?" Shang Yuanshan looked slightly angry.
"I'll go right away." Liu Quan didn't even dare to look back and left with his men.
Shang Wanning was now anxious. "Brother, what did you mean by execution of the whole family?"
Shang Yuanshan was willing to explain to him: "The emperor asked Liu Quan and I to investigate the matter of Wanhetang. If I find the person behind the scenes, I will be made a marquis. If I can't find the person behind the matter, the whole family will be executed."
Li angrily shouted, "Shang Yuanshan, you are crazy."
Shang Wanning held down Li's hand that was pointing at Shang Yuanshan. "Brother, do you know who is behind this?"
"have no idea."
"You unfilial son, you dare to agree to this, do you want to kill us?"
Shang Yuanshan squatted on the ground and cried. "What can I do? Disobeying the emperor's order will always result in the same outcome."
Li collapsed to the ground. "Why is my life so miserable?"
Shang Wanning stood still. "Brother, why is this happening?"
"Stop pushing Yuanshan." Lin Siqing stepped forward and pulled up Shang Yuanshan who was squatting on the ground.
Shang Yuanshan looked at Lin Siqing with tears in his eyes. "Siqing, it's my fault. I'm sorry for you. Why don't you take the children and divorce me?"
"Shang Yuanshan, what are you thinking about? I will not agree to a divorce. If we die, we die together."
The three children also ran over and hugged Shang Yuanshan. "Daddy, you can't abandon us."
Shang Yangyang was squeezed in the middle. [What kind of routine is this? Why can't I understand it? ]
[Has the emperor changed now? Why is it so early? ]
Shang Yangyang’s little brain couldn’t move anymore.
Shang Yuanshan was surrounded in the middle. He secretly pinched Shang Yangyang's little face and smiled at her.
When Shang Yangyang saw her father's smile, she suddenly thought, is this acting?
[I understand now. It turns out that Big Brother learned his acting skills from Daddy. This acting skill almost fooled the clever baby Yangyang.]
Li Shi: "No, no, if you want to die together, then you can die together. I can't die with you."
"Mother." Shang Wanning tried to stop her.
Li was really excited, she slapped Shang Wanning on the face. "Son, are you stupid? Shang Yuanshan has already angered the emperor, and now it is obvious that the emperor is taking this opportunity to kill him.
What are you expecting? Do you think the emperor will give him a chance to find out who is behind this?"
Shang Wanning was awakened by this slap. "Is mother going to divide the family?"
"There's no point in dividing the family. Just expel Shang Yuanshan from the family tree and write a letter of severance. Even if they confiscate the family property, they won't implicate us."
Shang Yuanshan stood up. "Mother, it's my fault. If mother decides to do this, I won't stop her."
Li put his hands on his hips. "I'm not stupid, so why should I die with you? I'll go to the ancestral hall and expel you from the family tree. You and your family should pack up your things and get out today."
Shang Yuanshan's face was full of regret: "Mother, it's not your son who is going to get out of the house, it's you who are going to leave the general's house."
"Shang Yuanshan, you are a dying man, what do you need this mansion for?"
Shang Yuanshan: "Mother, this is the general's mansion that the emperor bestowed upon me. Even if we divide the family, this house will not belong to you."
"Okay, then you just give me your money and the shop."
Lin Siqing sneered. "Mother-in-law, you are so arrogant. What does our money have to do with you? If you don't want to split up the family, then don't leave."
"You...you are all going to die. If you don't give us this money, will the emperor confiscate your property?"
"Otherwise, if you don't have the money to confiscate your property for the Emperor, do you think you can still live well even if you break off your relationship?"
Li's heart trembled at Lin Siqing's words.
Shang Wanning did not give Li any more chances to speak. "Okay, we will break off the engagement and move out of the general's mansion."
Li didn't waste any time and rushed to the ancestral hall in the general's mansion.
When Shang Qingyuan and Shang Guogong separated their family business, Shang Guogong directly excluded him from the family tree. Now the so-called family tree of the Shang family consists of only a few pages.
Li took out the family tree and crossed out Shang Yuanshan's family from the so-called family tree. He then called Shang Wanning to write a letter of severance of relationship. After several people signed, Shang Wanning took the letter of severance of relationship to the Ministry of Revenue.
When Wang Shilang, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue who was in charge of household registration, saw the letter of severance of engagement in Shang Wanning's hand, he felt that Shang Wanning had a problem with his brain.
"Brother Shang, are you sure?"
"Well, this is what my mother meant. There is nothing I can do." Shang Wanning's eyes were filled with false sadness.
"Brother Shang, are you sure that your mother made the decision when she was conscious?"
"Well, Brother Wang, please approve it quickly and make it public as soon as possible."
"Okay, this marriage agreement will be made in triplicate, one for you and one for General Shang. The remaining copy will be kept by the Ministry of Revenue and made public."
Minister Wang stamped the official seal on it, and also the seal of the Ministry of Revenue, and the severance of the relationship took effect immediately.
Shang Wanning took the letter of severance. "Thank you, Brother Wang."
Shang Wanning hurriedly handed a copy of the letter of severance to Shang Yuanshan. "Brother, I will take mother back to pack up and we will move out of the general's mansion immediately."
"Wan Ning, the old house may not be cleaned up yet, why don't you stay here for a few days?"
"No need, big brother. We can just take everyone to the inn and stay there for a few days."
Li shouted angrily: "Why are you still calling me big brother? You two are no longer related. Be careful of what you say."
"I understand, mother."
Li took Shang Wanning out without looking back.
They took away all the valuables as quickly as possible, as well as the maids and servants in the mansion whose bodyguards were indentured in their hands.
Just as they walked out of the general's mansion, Shang Yuanshan, his wife and children, chased them to the gate.
Shang Yuanshan knelt down while crying: "It is my fault for causing trouble for my mother. Since mother has made up her mind to break off the relationship, Yuanshan will kneel down here to bid farewell to her."
Shang Yanqing and the others also knelt down in a formal manner. "Rest in peace, grandma."
Lin Siqing was trying not to laugh, thinking that Shang Yanqing and the others were definitely doing this on purpose.
[Yes, yes, rest in peace, grandma. Our home can be a little quieter from now on.]
Li was so angry that she staggered. She turned back and looked at the people in front of the mansion gate fiercely. She didn't want to say anything more and left with her people.
The people were also confused when they saw this scene. They had just heard that the general was poisoned in the morning, and now the marriage was broken off in the afternoon.
"You said, could it be that Madam Shang instructed Madam Cong to poison the general?"
