Chapter 221 The situation is getting worse
Xia was shocked.
As if it were her, Shen Heng had a headache: "Mammy, this shouldn't work. If such an ugly thing happened in the Peng family, then all the girls in the family would be looked down upon. How could the Peng clan allow such a thing to happen?"
"This matter has been suppressed for the time being. It's hard to say what will happen in the future." Nanny Feng sighed. "If the legitimate daughter can have a boy this time, she will have someone to rely on in the Si family, and others will no longer dare to bully or look down on her."
Chen Heng thought that Liu Zhiyue's journey had not been easy. She had finally walked out of the shadow of her original family, learned to be a noble lady in a royal palace, and then married into the Si family, the largest family in Yuezhou, and faced all kinds of intrigues.
But this kind of fate is difficult to avoid in a feudal dynasty. Perhaps it was destined when she became Liu Zhiyue.
When Xie Jian returned in the evening, it was already dark.
After washing up, Shen Heng told Mama what she had said: "Do you know?"
"It's just a means to deceive people. There are many pairs of eyes in the palace staring at the Si family." Xie Jian put the long clothes on the screen. Si Qi was not the type to be bound by love.
"Method? How can you use a woman's reputation as a means to deceive others?"
"If Peng Yunrong hadn't willingly offered himself up, how could he have been taken advantage of?"
Chen Heng choked. She despised Peng Yunrong's behavior. He was asking for trouble by falling into depravity. But as a woman, she couldn't stand Si Qi's behavior. If he rejected her completely, she didn't believe Peng Yunrong would still do the same. "A noble son of Yuezhou shouldn't resort to such despicable tactics."
"Peng Yunrong has been sent to a farm in the countryside, and this is the end of it." Xie Jianqi, in fact, such exploitation is nothing to him or Si Qi.
How can someone who doesn't love herself expect others to love her? There are not so many kind people in the world.
Although Confucius often said, "A man of noble character should attach great importance to his moral character. He should be genuine and uncorrupted, and have a pure and innocent heart. This is what a real man should be."
As a person, you should have certain expectations for yourself, but this idea is too naive. How many people in this world think this way? They only think about themselves.
Even those who stand up for others will only do so based on their own likes and dislikes, and good and bad feelings, which is very one-sided.
The next moment, he cried out in pain as his wife suddenly grabbed his cheek. They were already husband and wife, and she was actually using this trick again?
"Xie Jian, you can't become a person like Si Qi, do you understand?" Shen Heng grabbed his face with one hand and said seriously: "There must be a bottom line in life, otherwise you will be looked down upon."
"To be a great man is not restricted..."
Shen Heng twisted her finger 45 degrees.
"Ah, it hurts, I know." Xie Jian agreed immediately.
Chen Heng finally turned back to her senses and said, "Not bad, not bad."
Xie Jian took several steps back, rubbing his twisted cheek and looking at his wife with a face full of resentment and accusation: "I am your husband, a fourth-rank official of the current dynasty, and you dare..."
"Any questions?"
"No."
"sleep."
The next few days were uneventful.
Until one rainy day, everyone was saying that the spy had been found.
When Chen Heng just opened the shop, she heard a customer telling the waiter that spies were actually in the six ministries under the Shangshu Province, including the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Personnel.
"No way?" Liu Gang was unconvinced and chatted with the guest, "How did a spy get into such an important place?"
"Who knows? Everyone says so, it has spread." The guest asked.
