Chapter 378 Since she looks down on my Crown Princess, then let's all be at ease.
"How is it inappropriate? He only has eyes for that troublemaker! In his eyes, we are all just burdens."
The next morning, the Duchess wanted to leave with her son, daughter-in-law, and the Duke's property.
As a result, they were stopped by the Duke of Wei before they even left the second gate. "Where are you going?"
The Duchess raised her eyelids and glanced at the Duke of Wei. "Didn't you tell us to go back to our hometown? We'll go back now."
"Then what excuses did I ask you to come up with?"
"We're stupid, we can't figure it out."
"Since you can't figure it out, then go back to your room. Escort the old lady, the two masters, and the two ladies back to their rooms."
"yes."
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen guards appeared beside him. The guards of the Duke of Wei's mansion had all followed the Duke of Wei to the battlefield.
The Duchess's arrogance vanished. "What do you want?"
The Duke of Wei said, "You'll find out in a while," and then left.
The head guard gestured for the Duchess and her entourage to proceed. "Please, everyone."
The Duchess wanted to leave quickly. "Get out of my way!"
The lead guard waved his hand, and two guards immediately lifted the Duchess up.
The Duchess was both anxious and furious. "What are you doing? Do you want to die?"
The head guard completely ignored her. "Take the old lady back to her room."
"yes."
In the blink of an eye, the Duchess was taken away.
The head guard looked towards Elder Wei and his entourage. "My lords and ladies, would you like us to do this for you as well?"
"No need." Wei Laoda and the others all knew that their mother had probably made things worse this time.
About a month later, the Duchess was smashing things when the Duke of Wei led her elder brother in from outside.
When the Duchess saw her elder brother arrive, she immediately pointed at the Duke of Wei and said, "Brother, he has placed me under house arrest."
Sun Muxin was surprised. "Brother-in-law, what did my sister do wrong that you're treating her like this?"
Duke Wei presented the evidence. "See for yourself. I originally wanted her to make up a reason to go back to her hometown to retire. I didn't expect that she not only wanted others to think that I had wronged her, but also wanted to take away all the wealth of our Wei family."
Since he no longer trusts her, he will naturally be wary of her.
The Duchess didn't think she was wrong at all. "You're the one who wronged me. I bore you children, and you want to send me back to my hometown. Since I'm going back, I should take more money with me."
Duke Wei has no intention of paying any attention to her now.
After learning why the Duke of Wei had placed his sister under house arrest, Sun Muxin quickly said, "Little sister, you were wrong. Apologize to your brother-in-law."
"No! I did that for the sake of the Wei family."
Duke Wei could no longer bear to listen. "You harmed my granddaughter and you claim it was for the sake of the Wei family. How can you even say that?"
"What is there that I can't say? I'd rather kill her than let her go out and embarrass herself."
"How did Cheng'er embarrass himself like this?"
"You taught that troublemaker martial arts so that she'd become like you, always fighting and killing? What kind of girl does that?"
"Of course there is! The Crown Princess has been fighting on the battlefield since she was a child."
The Duke of Wei's mention of Sisi only made his wife angrier. "Don't mention her! Can she fight on the battlefield? She just learned some seductive tricks from her mother and then used them to bewitch men and make them fight for her!"
Snap!
The Duke of Wei slapped his wife to the ground. "How dare you speak to the Crown Princess like that?! Do you have a death wish?"
The Duchess was shocked that the Duke of Wei dared to hit her in front of her elder brother. "What's wrong with me saying that? She only got to where she is today because of that guy surnamed Hei, that guy surnamed Bai, and that guy surnamed Niu."
The Duchess felt that if Sisi hadn't used her seductive charm to bewitch the Crown Prince, he wouldn't have told the Emperor to let girls participate in the imperial examinations and become officials.
If it weren't for the fact that girls could also become officials, the Duke of Wei wouldn't have cared so much about Wei Cheng'er.
If the Duke of Wei hadn't cared so much about Wei Cheng'er, she wouldn't have targeted him.
The Duchess thought about it more and more and felt that the root of the problem lay with Sisi, and that Sisi was the one who had ruined her.
Duke Wei wanted to kick her to death.
Duke Wei looked at Sun Muxin. "I can't keep this wife. Take her back with you."
Sun Muxin never expected his sister to say such a thing. "Little sister, are you trying to kill everyone?"
The Duchess, with her neck stiff, retorted, "I did nothing wrong! Those girls were corrupted by her! She's a vixen who brings ruin to the country!"
Snap!
This time it was Sun Muxin who called. "Are you crazy?"
"I'm not crazy! I..."
"Shut up! You've been flattered too much and you've become arrogant." His brother-in-law was a favorite of the emperor, so his sister naturally heard a lot of flattery.
"Brother-in-law, calm down. I'll talk to her properly; she's just been fooled by someone else."
Duke Wei gave his wife a deep look. “She wasn’t fooled; she despised the Crown Princess from the bottom of her heart and felt that she had set a bad example for all the girls in the world.”
“Brother Sun, I can forgive her for harming my granddaughter, but I must divorce her because of what she said about the Crown Princess. Firstly, I have great respect for the Crown Princess. Secondly, her thoughts will bring great disaster to our Wei family.”
"Brother-in-law, she..."
Sun Muxin was interrupted by the Duke of Wei after he had only said a few words. "Don't say anything more, my mind is made up. Besides, for the sake of our in-law relationship, I advise you to keep a close eye on her after you take her back, lest she bring trouble upon you."
