Chapter 144 The Helpless Mrs. Shen

Lin Ruhai bowed and walked into the hall. Seeing a group of people there, he knew that things were almost done. "Your Highness Lin Ruhai pays respect to the Emperor, the Supreme Emperor."

"My dear Lin, you came at the right time. This is about your father-in-law and mother-in-law..."

As soon as His Majesty mentioned that these were Lin Ruhai's father-in-law and mother-in-law, he saw Lin Ruhai kneeling on the ground.

"Lin Aiqing, what are you doing?"

Lin Ruhai bowed and said, "I am here today for my real father-in-law and mother-in-law."

The emperor was so angry that he almost laughed. Really? Now the eldest daughter of the uncle is not qualified, but she insists on being an illegitimate child born out of wedlock?

"Lin Ruhai, have you made up your mind?" The emperor also knew that when the illegitimate daughter of the Zhang family gave birth to a daughter, who was adopted by Shen Nan and given the name of a legitimate daughter, it would be a very different situation if she had a child out of wedlock.

Lin Ruhai calmly took out a marriage certificate from his pocket and said, "Here is a marriage certificate for your inspection, Your Majesty."

Speaking of this marriage certificate, we have to thank Shen Ajiao's grandmother. When Shen Huaiyuan ran away from home, it was not to escape the marriage, but a planned accident.

When Shen Ajiao's grandmother found him, Shen Huaiyuan had already been taken away. When he was found again, he was with Zhang's concubine.

Shen Ajiao's grandmother was unwilling to let the concubine of the Zhang family enter the Shen family. She dragged the concubine of the Zhang family until she became pregnant, but she still did not enter the Shen family.

The more Shen Ajiao's grandmother tried to stop him, the more Shen Huaiyuan loved the concubine of the Zhang family. Seeing her belly growing bigger and bigger, Shen Huaiyuan felt sorry for the concubine as he failed to marry her.

He got married secretly without telling his parents, signed a marriage certificate with the concubine of the Zhang family, and submitted it to the government for filing.

Grandmother Shen Ajiao knew that the current situation was a foregone conclusion. She was to blame, but she didn't want Shen Huaiyuan to get into trouble. She endured everything silently. She wanted to secretly send away the concubine of the Zhang family and leave a bloodline for the legitimate son. Who knew that the concubine appeared in front of Mrs. Shen with a big belly, saying that she was pregnant with a boy and would inherit the title of the Shen family in the future.

She had a miscarriage on the day she returned. She labored for three days and three nights, barely giving birth to the baby. But a bowl of "tonic medicine" killed her.

"Is this the marriage certificate between Shen Huaiyuan and the concubine of the Zhang family?"

Lin Ruhai, "Your Majesty, yes, this is what I borrowed from the government office in Yangzhou."

The emperor smiled and said, "Then this also proves that your wife is Shen Huaiyuan's legitimate daughter."

Lin Ruhai: Yes, that’s better than being an illegitimate child. You can only speak after you have a clear identity.

"I came here today, firstly for my wife's identity, and secondly for the accident that Madam Shen mentioned in her letter."

Everyone in the palace looked at Lin Ruhai. The emperor was obviously unhappy. "Didn't you say it was an accident?"

Lin Ruhai smiled and said, "It was an accident, and it was also man-made, but I wanted to show something to Master Shen first."

As he spoke, Lin Ruhai took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Shen Bonan, "Master Shen, please read this."

Shen Nan stared at the name written on the letter, familiar yet strange.

Shen Huaiyuan

My brother personally wrote:

After careful consideration, I feel ashamed of you. You still want to rely on me to take care of you in this life, so I will give you this 녡子Token. I hope you will be diligent and live up to your expectations.

Brother Huaiyuan.

Lin Ruhai took out the son's token calmly and placed it gently in front of Uncle Shen. "Uncle, have you found your son's token?"

"Mrs. Shen has kept it for a long time."

Shen Nan held the letter against his chest with great difficulty, trembling as he took the Shen family's son token and rubbed it gently, tears slowly soaking his eyes.

…

"Brother, this persimmon has just been harvested. Please try it."

…

"Father, where can my brother get some crabs to eat?"

…

"Ahem, my dear brother, I was wrong. It is true that I want to spend the rest of my life with her, but she is not as capable as the eldest daughter of the Zhang family. She cannot teach the children at home, and she cannot bear the responsibility of being a wife. I cannot forgive the mistakes you made some time ago."

"When you become a wife, just remember to give her a few shops. I won't hold it against you for cheating on her before."

…

"After 놖 leaves, 놖's child will be handed over to grandmother to raise. If it's a boy, you should help 놖 educate him and don't treat him like 놖. If it's a girl, then... just let her be."

Shen Nan collapsed to the ground, filled with grief, and let out a scream.

"You...you hid these things?" Shen Wangnan stared at Mrs. Shen and asked loudly, "You knew, you knew that Wang had been looking for it!"

"It doesn't matter if you know it! You deserve it."

Mrs. Shen laughed non-stop, as if she was mad, with tears streaming from her eyes, "You have been forgiven, and you can also be forgiven by death, but what about you? What about the injuries you suffered?"

Wiping away tears, "Do you think you can be relieved by dying? Those injuries will disappear with the wind? No! Every time you look at your daughter, you will feel more pain! It reminds you of those injuries all the time!"

"You think you are noble, but aren't these the result of your hard work and planning?"

"Hahaha, you are angry too. You are so angry that you are dying, but I still have something else to hide. I didn't give you a son token, which made you feel uncomfortable. That's why you are so cold and indifferent everywhere, and you don't even look at your daughter."

"Are you really innocent? Why did Shen Huaiyuan run away in the first place? Why is he with his concubine sister?!

And those persimmons and crabs, hahahaha, Shen 녡nan, your retribution has come!"

She knew all this, but because she knew it and acquiesced, it hurt even more.

Madam Shen laughed and spat out a mouthful of blood. Her strength quickly dissipated, and she staggered twice before falling to the ground with a thud.

She looked incredulous. She had been taking medicine regularly these days and had almost recovered. How could she...why was she vomiting blood and feeling weak?

Lin Ruhai lowered his head and a hint of coldness appeared at the corners of his mouth, but it disappeared in a flash.

The emperor looked at the emperor, "Father, what do you think?"

The emperor had not thought of this either. He closed his eyes in anger and waved his hand, saying, "Your Majesty, just do it."

The emperor glanced at Lin Ruhai, who was bowing his head, and said, "Submit Lin Ruhai's evidence to the Dali Temple. As for the matter of Shen Bonan killing my brother, it will also be handed over to the Dali Temple for investigation."

Lin Ruhai hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty, what about your wife?"

Your Majesty, "Hahaha, your wife is right. Since her mother and Shen Huaiyuan have a marriage certificate, she can be considered as a born daughter, so we won't pursue it."

"Using this incident, I will take over the Shen family. As the eldest daughter of the Shen family, your wife should be the heir of the Shen family. Most of the property should belong to her.

The evidence of the case of the second wife of the Shen family murdering the first wife of the Shen family is complete and not difficult to find. My dear, how many days will this take?"

The Dali Temple Shaoqing saluted and said, "Three days will be enough."

"allow!"

Shen looked at Lin Ruhai who was walking towards him step by step. He was much calmer at this moment, but he still trembled a little, "What about the token?"

Lin Ruhai, "When A Jiao passed by, she asked the beauty to steal it back during the chaos."
