Chapter 20 The Woman Who Destroyed the Bridge After Crossing the River
"You, please be careful next time. How come she suddenly became smart?" The queen looked puzzled. She had met Jiang Nanjiao several times.
He is clearly a fool with low IQ and no brains.
Wei Zishan said puzzledly: "She seems to have changed. Her eyes are no longer dull as before, but clear and sharp, and her aura is stronger."
Although she was stupid before, she was arrogant and domineering, and her aura was not weak. To put it bluntly, she was a shrew with a simple mind but strong limbs.
"You should ask someone to investigate it thoroughly. As for her plotting against you, your aunt will not let her off lightly." The queen's eyes flashed with brutal cruelty.
"I'll check it out." Wei Zishan breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as my aunt is willing to help, that bitch will have a good time.
The queen looked at her and said earnestly, "Talk to Zixuan about this. You two have something to discuss. Don't confront Jiang Nanjiao head-on again."
"Okay, I'll tell my sister." Wei Zishan nodded. If her sister was present today, she probably wouldn't have fallen into the trap of that villain.
After thinking about it, she felt very upset and hated Jiang Nanjiao even more.
…
After leaving the palace, Wei Zishan returned to the Wei family.
As soon as she entered the Wei Mansion, she was taken to the main hall by the housekeeper.
"Daddy." Wei Zishan smiled sweetly.
"You have truly brought shame upon the Cheng'en Marquisate. Someone, come and enforce the family rules." Wei Zhenchuan said angrily. Today, the incident of kowtowing in the pharmacy had become a hot topic.
Finally, the news reached the Ministry of Revenue, and it was hard for him not to know about it.
When he was off duty, although his colleagues did not dare to tease him, the look of watching the show was too obvious.
Wei Zishan's eyes widened and she trembled with fear.
"Dad, no, this is not Zishan's fault. Miss Jiang Wu deliberately set a trap for Zishan, intending to embarrass her and the Cheng'en Marquisate."
A woman in a purple satin dress said calmly.
"Master, Zixuan is right. Zishan is too naive, that's why she was fooled." Cui hurriedly protected her little daughter. How could her delicate skin and tender flesh withstand the family punishment?
"Dad, my daughter just came back from the palace. My aunt said that it was Jiang Nanjiao who set a trap for me. She is so cruel." Wei Zishan said with tears in her eyes.
When Wei Zhenchuan heard her say this, he felt upset.
Damn Jiang Nanjiao!
"How could you be fooled by a fool like her?" Wei Zhenchuan was angry, distressed and annoyed. When had his Wei family ever suffered such an insult?
"Dad, I heard that Jiang Nanjiao is no longer stupid. Zishan can't be blamed for this." Wei Zixuan said and gave Wei Zishan a soothing look.
"Not stupid anymore?" Wei Zhenchuan frowned.
Wei Zixuan nodded, her hand tightly clenching the handkerchief under her sleeve. Zhan Beiheng was the man she liked since childhood, and she naturally paid special attention to the fact that he married Jiang Nanjiao.
On the second day after their wedding, Jiang Nanjiao ran out of the palace and was later taken back by Zhan Beiheng. Not only did he not touch her, he also accompanied her back home.
I heard that she found out that the Seventh Princess was poisoned and fell into a coma, and she is helping her detoxify.
This is not something a fool can do.
"Don't provoke her again!" Wei Zhenchuan said solemnly.
"Let's just let this matter go?" Cui said unwillingly.
Wei Zhenchuan said calmly: "The Empress Dowager knows about this, and she will make her own decision. Anyone who dares to act privately and bring shame to the Cheng'en Marquisate will be punished according to the family rules."
Cui: “…”
If you don't do it in private, then do it openly. There will always be a chance.
…
Deokshou Palace.
"Grandson's wife Jiang has met the emperor." Nan Jiao looked at the dignified old man on the main seat and saluted respectfully. She respected the emperor.
The last time she pushed down the Seventh Princess, if the Emperor had not stepped in, she would have avoided punishment.
She knew he was doing it for his grandfather's sake.
They were ruler and subject, and also friends.
"My grandson has met my royal grandfather." Zhan Beiheng saluted respectfully. The person he respected the most was his royal grandfather. He almost grew up by his side when he was a child.
A large part of his achievements today are due to the teachings of his grandfather.
The emperor stared at Nan Jiao with a sharp look in his eyes.
She called herself the grandson's wife and called him the emperor's grandfather, which surprised him a little.
I heard that she was very reluctant to marry the third brother.
When Nan Jiao saw the old man's look, she looked at him with dignity and without arrogance. He was the one with the most say in Qin State, and even the emperor had to listen to him.
If she wants to divorce Zhan Beiheng, she needs his consent.
"Are you happy about your marriage?" The emperor asked Nan Jiao.
"My grandson's wife wants a divorce. Please grant my wish, Grandfather." Nan Jiao knelt on the ground and spoke clearly and forcefully.
She had to take a stand.
Otherwise, she was afraid that the old man would try to match her up with Zhan Beiheng.
It would be better to let him give up at the beginning.
"Jiang Nanjiao!" Zhan Beiheng's dark eyes were filled with rage, and he wished he could cut her into pieces. He didn't abandon her, but she dared to mention divorce in front of the Emperor's grandfather.
The emperor looked at Zhan Beiheng and said, "Third brother, this is your fault. It must be because you did something wrong that your wife asked for a divorce right after the wedding."
"Royal grandfather..." Zhan Beiheng's handsome face turned dark.
"Grandfather, it's not his fault, it's his grandson's wife's fault." Nan Jiao interrupted Zhan Beiheng.
The emperor glanced at Zhan Beiheng and scolded him, "Men should be more tolerant. Look at your wife. She doesn't say anything bad about you."
Zhan Beiheng: “…”
He was right in the first place, so of course she didn't dare to say anything nonsense.
"Tell me what you have done wrong. Why do you want a divorce?" The retired emperor had an unfathomable look on his face. He knew that she was reluctant to marry, but he didn't expect her to be so reluctant.
"My grandson's wife is not innocent. She has given birth to a child." Nan Jiao knelt straight and confessed everything.
It's better than being exposed by others one day.
So she took the initiative to confess.
In the original owner's memory, the emperor was a sensible person.
She didn't conceal the matter of innocence and the child on purpose.
He wouldn't just kill her, would he?
"You..." The anger on Zhan Beiheng's face deepened. He never thought that she would confess this to the Royal Grandfather. Did she really want to divorce him?
He didn't hesitate to expose the fact that he was not innocent!
"Have you had your wedding night?" asked the emperor.
Zhan Beiheng said coldly: "Sun'er didn't want to spend the wedding night. She took the initiative that night."
After he finished speaking, his eyes as sharp as knives shot towards Nan Jiao.
A woman who destroys the bridge after crossing it!
Nan Jiao felt guilty: “…”
She shouldn't have touched him!
But in that situation, if she didn't touch him, she would die.
She's so difficult.
"You are already husband and wife, and I do not agree with your divorce. As for your innocence and the birth of a child, did you know about this before you got married?" the emperor asked calmly.
"She doesn't know." Zhan Beiheng answered for her.
"Grandfather, I am not worthy of Prince Jin. Please agree to our divorce. If the world knew that I had given birth to a child, he would become a laughing stock."
Nan Jiao covered her face with her hands and pretended to cry.
"You are so worried about him, why don't you tell others that the child is his? Then everything will be solved." The emperor gave her advice, his eyes bright and sharp.
Nan Jiao: “…”
Zhan Beiheng: “…”
