"You are simply acting like a fool. Our Shen family is your strongest backing. If you dig your own grave like this, sooner or later the fire will burn you. Don't forget, you are a member of our Shen family."
"Yingnan, don't do anything stupid. How about this, we all agree to let you be the head of our Shen family. Your father should step down soon. From now on, you will be the head of our Shen family, the patriarch of the Shen family..." An elder said in a negotiating tone, which attracted the agreement of many elders.
After all, the soldier was about to take out his knife.
Even those who disagreed in their hearts would remain silent or nod their heads.
I thought that Shen Yingnan should be fine with this. After all, who would be so stupid as to really bring down his own backing?
But……
Shen Yingnan is that one person.
Faced with the words of the elders, he remained calm and simply waved his hand to have the man arrested.
When the elders and Mr. Shen were taken away, they were so angry that they beat and scolded them...
"What's going on?"
"Aren't those the elders of the Shen family? Hey, there's also the old patriarch of the Shen family..." At the door of the Shen family, the onlookers started talking.
It's like watching a play.
Especially when they saw the elders and Mr. Shen coming out with dark faces, everyone was very surprised.
Of course.
Soon they knew what was going on.
Because people soon came out from the gate of the Shen family, led by the old lady of the Shen family. She brought servants and nannies with her, looking as if she was going to fight someone to the death, and angrily shouted at Shen Yingnan who was walking behind her.
"Shen Yingnan, stop right there!"
Shen Yingnan paused slightly and turned back. When he saw the domineering attitude of Old Madam Shen, he just curled the corners of his lips coldly. He could have ignored it, but he didn't know what he thought of, so he stopped.
Supported by the nanny, Old Lady Shen quickly stepped forward. When she reached Shen Yingnan, she raised her cane and hit him hard. "You are a heartless person. You are really an ungrateful person. You are an official now, but instead of helping your family, you are taking the opportunity to take revenge on them. I tell you, if you dare to take your grandfather and others away today, I will beat you to death today..."
Old Madam Shen waved the cane in her hand again.
The soldier on the side wanted to take action, but was stopped by Shen Yingnan. He let Madam Shen's cane hit him and remained motionless, letting her vent her curses.
This made Madam Shen even more arrogant.
He felt that he could suppress Shen Yingnan in front of everyone, so he beat him even more unscrupulously, until he had no strength left. Then he said angrily: "You evil son, why don't you let your grandfather and the others go?"
"Even if you resent your father for being a little unkind to you and your son, that's a private matter between the elders. Yet, you're going to jail your biological father and grandfather just for such a small grudge. Aren't you afraid that the people will expose your spine?"
"His Majesty values filial piety above all else. If he knew that you were so disrespectful to your elders after becoming an official, he would surely dismiss you."
Seeing that Shen Yingnan still didn't move, Madam Shen was furious and raised her cane to hit him again: "What are you still standing there for? Let him go quickly, and let your father out as well. You are really rebellious. You even dare to arrest your own biological father."
Madam Shen loves Shen Pinglong the most.
Otherwise, Shen Pinglong would not have done so many romantic and absurd things, and still be able to marry Chen and sit firmly on the position of the head of the Shen family.
She also disliked Shen Yingnan.
The child born by a vulgar ruffian is not noble in blood, not to mention that this grandson is not affectionate to her. Now he even wants to capture his own father and grandfather. He is truly an ungrateful and ungrateful person.
"Have you had enough?"
But Shen Yingnan asked at this time.
Old Madam Shen was stunned. She obviously didn't expect that after being silent for such a while, Shen Yingnan's first words would be like this.
However, she didn't care and said, "What's wrong? Grandma, can't I beat you? I tell you, if you don't let your father and grandfather go, I will beat you." She pretended to raise the crutch in her hand again.
In the eyes of others, there is nothing wrong.
After all, they are grandparents and grandchildren!
But what Shen Yingnan said next stunned everyone present, even Madam Shen.
"Mrs. Feng, the old lady of the Shen family, assaulted an official of the imperial court in public. She has been arrested and sent to the prison to await punishment."
As Shen Yingnan finished speaking, the soldiers immediately stepped forward.
As the nanny and the maids were stunned, Madam Shen was directly carried up by two soldiers, one on each side.
Both feet are off the ground.
She was directly classified into the same category as Old Master Shen.
When Old Madam Shen finally reacted, she was so angry that her eyes almost popped out of her head: "You evil creature, you even dared to touch your grandmother..."
"This official is acting under orders, and this is a public duty. Anyone who interferes with this will be dealt with according to the law. Feng, if you continue to publicly intervene and insult an official, I will give you ten lashes of the board as a warning to others."
"You dare?"
“But I am your grandmother, your real grandmother. If you really dare to touch me, you are unfilial. I will go to the Censorate to sue you as an unfilial descendant…” Old Lady Shen really didn’t believe that Shen Yingnan dared to hit her.
Shen Yingnan just stared at her silently.
He seemed to be waiting for her to scold him, and would hit her if she did.
Old Madam Shen seemed to understand the meaning in his eyes. She laughed out loud and said angrily, "You unfilial son of a bitch, you are really an ungrateful wolf who can never be tamed. Do you really think that you can do whatever you want just because you are an official? I tell you, even if the emperor were here today, I would still beat and scold you, an unfilial thing..."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yingnan raised the corners of his lips and smiled slightly.
"Someone, get on the board."
"Considering Feng's advanced age, I will use 50% of my strength to beat her ten times with a stick." This is to avoid breaking her old bones. After all, she has to pay a heavy price.
The soldiers moved quickly.
After a while.
Old Madam Shen was directly put on the board.
A soldier took out a long stick from somewhere, and the moment Mrs. Shen was pressed down, he raised the stick in his hand and brought it down.
Bang!
"ah……"
Old Madam Shen screamed in pain.
"stop!"
"You brat, she is your grandmother. You can only hit your grandmother. Is there any justice in this world..." Old Master Shen shouted at the top of his voice.
It’s not that he felt bad for his old wife, but when he saw Shen Yingnan really did it, he felt scared and angry, afraid that he would be treated the same way, after all, he would be taken to the cell.
