Lord Liu had originally come to call someone, but unexpectedly he was forced to witness this juicy gossip. He nodded awkwardly to Madam Shen, then turned and went inside with his hands and feet moving in unison.
His eyebrows arched in an incredible arc.
hiss!
Is Madam Shen divorcing Lord Shen?
Is it true or false?
Madam Shen stared intently at Shen Chang's retreating figure, her eyes flickering like the faint glow of candlelight.
Shen Tangning gently reminded, "Mother, shall we go in and take a look too?"
Madam Shen withdrew her gaze and calmly nodded.
When Shen Chang entered the government office, he saw a man kneeling on the ground, who was most likely the person who had reported the case.
He stared intently at the man for a few moments, his heart filled with resentment. This man was the one who had almost ruined the reputation he had built up over many years!
When Zhou Erlang met Shen Chang, he felt a little uneasy.
The other party had been an official for so many years, and his air of being pampered and privileged was unlike that of others. He was just an ordinary citizen, and the highest official he had ever seen was a county magistrate!
Zhou Erlang couldn't help but feel uneasy. The other party was a second-rank official, a minister. Could he really win against such a person?
Shen Tangning suddenly spoke up: "Lord Liu, is this the person who falsely accused my concubine Fang of murdering me to cover it up?"
Lord Liu looked at her and nodded: "That's right."
She glanced at Zhou Erlang, a hint of contempt flashing in her eyes: "Utter nonsense! Not to mention that Aunt Fang is in the villa taking care of her pregnancy, how could she have any contact with him? There is no grudge between them, so why would Aunt Fang want to kill him to silence him?"
Her gaze turned cold, and her tone became nonchalant. "I think this person clearly has ulterior motives and is trying to curry favor with the powerful. We should immediately throw him into jail and interrogate him carefully!"
Zhou Erlang's face suddenly turned red: "You!"
He was both surprised and frightened, and also somewhat embarrassed and angry. It has to be said that Shen Tangning had indeed hit the nail on the head, but every word he said was true, without a single lie!
Her arrogant attitude undoubtedly angered him, and his previously wavering resolve instantly hardened.
Zhou Erlang gritted his teeth and sneered, "The truth will be revealed when Fang Rulan arrives!"
Upon seeing that she could actually say Aunt Fang's name, Shen Chang's expression subtly changed!
There was a commotion outside, but it wasn't Aunt Fang who came; instead, it was Shen Xiwei who rushed over after hearing the news. Her face was unnaturally pale, and her eyes revealed a hint of anxiety.
Seeing so many people gathered here, Shen Xiwei's heart skipped a beat. She forcibly suppressed her unease and stepped forward to greet them one by one:
"Father, Mother, Eldest Sister."
Shen Tangning looked up at her, a subtle smile playing on her lips:
Her arrival was just in time, saving her the trouble of going over to invite her.
She hasn't even settled the score with Shen Xiwei for plotting against her with Jiang Qingyue yet.
I misspoke with Chi Yan before; it should be "killing three birds with one stone."
I almost forgot about my good younger sister.
