Chapter 85: Crazy Fighting and Face Slapping (Part 2)
Yun Zheng pointed at the maid and said, "You represent the wife of the Marquis of Pingxi."
She pointed at the boy again and said, "You represent the one-eyed beggar on the street. Come, get married."
Everyone: …!!!
Yun Zheng presided over the ceremony personally, shouting, "Bow to Heaven and Earth."
The two servants bowed to heaven and earth in unison. When the marquis' wife saw this, she was completely devastated.
"Stop it, don't mess around."
Yun Zheng ignored him and continued to shout, "Bow to your parents."
The two of them bowed to the Jiang family.
Jiang Wenzhou's emotions were completely out of control. "That's enough, Yun Zheng, stop going crazy."
Yun Zheng's voice became louder, "Husband and wife bow to each other."
The two of them held the rooster and the hen and bowed to each other in a formal and serious manner, with a full sense of ritual.
"The ceremony is over." Yun Zheng smiled. This was her counterattack.
Dare to plot against her? Then let the Pingxi Marquisate become a laughing stock for the whole world.
This scene was so explosive that it shocked everyone present.
Oh my god, can you play it like this? This wave of operations is too cool.
Even the knowledgeable Li Wuyang's mouth twitched as he tried hard to suppress his smile.
The emperor was stunned. This girl is a lunatic.
The Marquis's face flushed red, and she was furious. "Yun Zheng, you lunatic, who allowed you to do this? I don't recognize you."
Yun Zheng smiled and waved, "Madam Hou, ah, beggar lady, hello."
When it comes to disgusting methods, no one can compare to Yun Zheng.
The Marquis's wife almost couldn't catch her breath and was gasping for air.
Yun Zheng bowed to Pingxi Hou again and said, "My Lord, congratulations, you have gained another brother. Don't worry, you will always be the eldest wife, the principal wife. No one can threaten your position."
Wives and concubines should call each other sisters, and men should call each other brothers. There is nothing wrong with that.
Pingxi Hou was so disgusted that his face turned blue, he was shaking with anger, and his eyes were bloodshot.
From then on, they, the Marquis of Pingxi, became a big joke, a topic of conversation after dinner, a topic that would not be forgotten even after many years.
No one wants to have anything to do with them because they can't afford to lose face.
The nobles all fell silent. Should they continue to protect him?
Someone couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Hahaha."
After the first one, there was the second one, and the scene was filled with laughter.
"So funny, Princess Jinyun is so cute."
"Princess Jinyun is a logical genius."
"She's right. What good person would marry a rooster and a hen? Which normal person would recognize this marriage? Anyway, I don't recognize it."
"This marriage was arranged from the beginning by the Pingxi Marquisate, who abused their power and bullied others. It is not valid."
The people had a good impression of Yun Zheng and felt very sympathetic towards her.
All we can say is that Yun Zheng predicted everything in advance, and with a little trickery, she easily turned public opinion around, exposing her own grievances and the ugly face of the Pingxi Marquisate to the public.
With her own strength, she nailed the Pingxi Marquisate firmly to the rack of shame.
Jiang Wenzhou was unwilling to accept defeat. He glared at Yun Zheng fiercely and shouted, "Our two families have a marriage certificate as proof. With a marriage certificate, we are husband and wife. Don't even think about getting away with it."
Yun Zheng was not afraid at all, her tone was cool, restrained and clear.
"Secondly, according to etiquette, after marriage one must go to the ancestral hall to worship ancestors and have the bride's name written in the family tree. Only then can she be considered a true daughter-in-law of a marquis."
"And I have never paid homage to the Jiang family's ancestors. My name is not on the Jiang family's genealogy, so how can I be considered the Jiang family's daughter-in-law?"
She left the loophole specifically for this day.
Pingxi Hou suddenly raised his head. He had been laying the groundwork for a long time, since the day of her marriage, just waiting for the outbreak on this day.
The meticulousness of his thoughts is shocking.
Jiang Wenzhou's face changed when he heard her words, and he looked at her in disbelief, "Yun Zheng, you've been preparing a way out from the beginning. You deliberately didn't go to the ancestral hall to worship your ancestors."
Such means and such scheming are really terrible.
Unfortunately, it was too late for them to react. Yun Zheng had already completed the arrangements and was just waiting to swing the sword.
"You, the Pingxi Marquisate, are so arrogant. Jiang Wenzhou, do you think the daughter of a money-grubbing merchant is worthy of being on the Marquisate's family tree?"
She pointed at the Marquis's wife, her eyes cold and gloomy, "And you said, I am just a stepping stone for your Pingxi Marquis's century-long wealth!"
This was the humiliation Jiang Wenzhou and his mother inflicted on her in her previous life, and they still thought so in this life.
"I remember it all, every last detail."
The Marquis's wife felt cold all over. How could she know so much? Could it be that there was someone like her around her?
"I... am just testing you. As long as you pass, you can be included in the family tree."
Jiang Wenzhou was furious. "Why are you so petty and vindictive? You have no tolerance at all. You should behave well and make us, the Jiang family, recognize you."
As soon as these words were spoken, the people shouted at him, calling him shameless and disgraceful.
Their filters for the nobles were shattered. The seemingly noble nobles turned out to be such dirty and despicable people.
Many officials shook their heads and sighed. It was understandable that the Pingxi Marquisate coveted the Yun family's immense wealth, but after marrying her, they humiliated her in every way and even refused to include her in the family tree. It was obvious that they had been planning to kill her and rob her of her wealth from the very beginning.
He is so despicable and evil to the core. No wonder Yun Zheng has to rise up in resistance.
All the officials who had originally complained about Yun Zheng's rebellious behavior fell silent, and their positions shifted.
If you don't resist, you will die. So there seems to be nothing wrong with sending your opponent's entire family to death.
The emperor frowned slightly, feeling a little shaken. The Pingxi Marquis's family was so unkind that the engagement was only half completed. Divorce was not an option, but cancelling the engagement... was not impossible either.
Li Wuyang glanced at the emperor indifferently, flicked his fingers calmly, and a guard retreated quietly.
Yun Zheng took a deep breath, her expression extremely solemn.
"Third, I am innocent to this day. Jiang Wenzhou and I are not actually married. I do not admit that I am his wife, and he is not my husband."
Everyone present looked at each other in bewilderment. They had been married for a while, but they hadn't consummated the marriage yet?
Yun Zheng pulled out a dagger and held it high. "Everyone present, please bear witness for me."
"In ancient times, people cut off their robes to sever ties of loyalty; today, people cut off their hair to show their resolve."
"From today on, Jiang Wenzhou and I have cut ties. We will no longer have any connection. We will be strangers and will never meet again."
The knife rose and fell, and a handful of broken hair fell to the ground.
His decisiveness and resolution shocked everyone present.
Jiang Wenzhou's face turned extremely ugly. This was equivalent to slapping him in the face in public, and was tantamount to declaring a divorce.
So cruel.
Pingxi Hou's mood was extremely complicated. He had good vision and chose such a daughter-in-law, but he was also blind and did not realize how capable she was.
She is ruthless, scheming and resourceful, and is perfectly suited to be the mistress of a marquis's mansion.
Unfortunately, it was wrong from the beginning.
An angry roar echoed from the crowd, "Your Majesty, the Jiang family is ruthless and ungrateful, and the Second Young Master Jiang is ruthless and heartless. Please sentence them to a divorce and return the princess to freedom."
Another commoner also shouted, "Your Majesty, the princess is too pitiful. She shouldn't ruin her lifelong happiness for a vicious man. Please let them cancel the engagement."
"Your Majesty, please have mercy and resolve the engagement."
Countless people shouted together, like mountains and seas roaring.
Listen, this is the voice of the people, this is public opinion!
