Chapter 8 The Eldest Daughter's Counterattack (Part 8)



"Wait!" When the old lady of the Marquis of Linxi heard Song Lan mention Song Wan'er, her expression immediately changed.

She had barely uttered those words when she heard a loud slap!

She heard a cry of pain, and a bright red handprint was already imprinted on her young son's fair and handsome face.

"You really are a slut!" Shen Wangshu felt much better after that slap, so she slapped him again!

She already possessed a certain imposing aura, and everyone was stunned for a moment, but no one stood up to stop her. It wasn't until the old lady of the Marquis of Linxi realized what was happening that she was trembling with anger!

"What, what is this?!" No matter how much she liked Song Lan, she still loved her son the most. Seeing that Zhang Yourong had been slapped after only a few words, she couldn't hold back any longer and stood up abruptly, shouting angrily, "What an rude girl!"

"Politeness is reserved for good people, not for scoundrels who deceive others into marriage. You've got a good plan. Why don't we make a scene and let people judge?"

Shen Wangshu wasn't afraid of an old lady from the Linxi Marquis's mansion. Since she dared to come, she was naturally prepared to be humiliated. With a slight wave of her hand, the silver-armored guards given to her by the Prince of Wei had already blocked the old lady. Only then did she leisurely reach out and pinch Zhang Yourong's chin. Seeing him look up at her with a pale face and fear, where was the arrogance that had once forced a bowl of abortion medicine into Song Lan's mouth? She immediately laughed.

"Look at your behavior! You think you're worthy to come here and ask for my hand in marriage?" She reached out and patted Zhang Yourong's cheek, and couldn't help but laugh.

Such a person is timid and cowardly, not even as good as one of King Wei's fingers.

"How dare you do this?! Is this the kind of upbringing in the Prime Minister's mansion?!" Seeing her playing with Zhang Yourong as if she were a toy, the old lady of the Marquis of Linxi was so angry that her liver ached, and she shouted loudly.

"You should ask my father about that. My birth mother died early, and my upbringing was all taught by my father." Without turning her head, Shen Wangshu slapped Zhang Yourong across the face again. Seeing him being slapped aside and lying on the table for a long time without moving, as if he was too ashamed to look at her, she laughed.

"If you had even a shred of courage, you would have dared to marry the one you wanted to marry, and you would have earned the respect of the local lord. You only had the courage to commit marriage fraud."

"I, I..." Zhang Yourong stammered a few times.

For some reason, he just couldn't bring himself to lay a hand on the girl in front of him with her malicious and cold smile. Even after being slapped by her, he felt no anger whatsoever.

"Get out! I don't care what Song Wan'er and you want to do, but let me tell you, do you believe that if you try to trick someone into marriage again and deceive another girl, I'll beat you again?" Shen Wangshu disgustedly took a snow-white handkerchief to wipe her fingers and threw the handkerchief at Zhang Yourong's face.

Her eyes darted around, landing on the dumbfounded and bewildered Prime Minister Song's face, and a hint of mockery appeared on her face.

She couldn't marry into the Marquis of Linxi's family. If Prime Minister Song knew that Song Wan'er and Zhang Yourong were in love, he would definitely arrange this marriage for his illegitimate daughter.

When the time comes, there will naturally be benefits for this couple in love.

She smiled for a moment with her eyes narrowed, then stepped back a few paces. Facing the angry old lady of the Marquis of Linxi, she smiled slightly and said, "If the old lady has something to say, say that I am domineering and arrogant, then go and make a fuss outside." She smiled calmly and said gently, "Just to argue, I'm afraid that if I say something unpleasant, the old lady will not be able to bear it, and that would not be my fault."

A noble family deceiving people into marriage, do you think they have a good reputation? Not afraid of their reputation being ruined, let Shen Wangshu do whatever she wants outside about how she slapped Zhang Yourong.

Since she dared to take action, she had naturally seized control of the Linxi Marquis's mansion, making these people hesitant to act rashly.

"Fine, fine, fine!" Her words were full of reasoning, which broadened the horizons of the old lady of the Marquis of Linxi. She laughed angrily, "The Prime Minister's family is of noble birth, and the Lady of the Township is a person of noble birth. My family dares not presume to be associated with her!"

“Since the old lady is self-aware, I don’t need to explain it in detail,” Shen Wangshu said considerately.

Every word and action of hers infuriated the old lady, and seeing Zhang Yourong's handsome face swollen from being whipped, she became even more furious.

"I only hope that you, my dear friend, will be able to marry a good man in the future," she said with a hint of sarcasm.

"Thank you for your kind words, Madam." Shen Wangshu said with a smile.

She was almost a completely different person from the imposing figure she had been just moments before. Now she was gentle and kind, making it hard to believe that the girl who had slapped someone so harshly was the same one. It was as if they had two completely different faces. The old lady silently clutched her aching chest and staggered.

Just as she rallied her spirits and was about to continue her sarcasm, she heard a great commotion outside the Prime Minister's residence. Just as she was wondering what was going on, she saw servants from the Prime Minister's residence rushing in.

"A decree has arrived from the palace, summoning the master and the lady to go out and receive it!"

Whether this is a blessing or a curse is unknown, but since the eldest daughter took the blame for the Empress Dowager, it shouldn't be a bad thing. Prime Minister Song glared at Shen Wangshu, who had offended the Marquis of Linxi's mansion in the blink of an eye, and strode away.

He walked into the courtyard and saw that in another courtyard, Aunt Rou was helping a frail-looking girl out, looking completely bewildered.

Seeing Song Wan'er's haggard and weak appearance today, her white dress and disheveled black hair making her look inexplicably pitiful, Prime Minister Song couldn't help but feel sorry for her, and his dislike for his domineering eldest daughter grew even stronger. As soon as Song Wan'er appeared, her eyes, full of tender affection, turned towards Zhang Yourong. A flash of light crossed his gaze, and he softly said to her, "Silly child, why didn't you tell me sooner? If I had known earlier, I would naturally have planned things for you."

"If my sister is the wife and I am the concubine, I will stay by your side, even if it means suffering, I will do it willingly." Seeing the Prime Minister's expression, Song Wan'er knew that Zhang Yourong's plot had failed, and her heart tightened. She hurriedly and softly said this.
