After a while, Aunt Fang finally arrived late.
She didn't receive a reply from those people yesterday, and subconsciously felt uneasy, tossing and turning all night.
This morning, my right eyelid kept twitching. I was panicking and was about to ask the nanny to find out what was going on when people from the Jingzhao Prefecture arrived.
They said she attempted murder and wanted her to go to the yamen (government office)!
Aunt Fang felt as if struck by lightning, and her vision went black instantly!
She was helped off the carriage in a daze, and when she saw the crowd of people surrounding the gate of the Jingzhao Prefecture, she felt dizzy and almost lost her footing on the steps!
"Auntie, be careful!"
The short distance from the entrance felt like an eternity to her.
"Auntie!" Shen Xiwei rushed over to greet her as soon as she saw her, her eyes filled with eagerness. Her lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but she could only swallow her words because there were so many people present.
Little did she know that Aunt Fang had no time to pay attention to her expression; when she saw Shen Chang appear there, her face turned deathly pale.
Zhou Erlang suddenly raised his voice: "Fang Rulan, you vicious woman! I never expected you to be so ruthless. As the saying goes, even a day as husband and wife is worth a hundred days of kindness. How could you do such a cruel thing?"
In an instant, the entire room fell silent.
"A day as husband and wife is worth a hundred days of kindness?" Shen Chang suddenly stood up, his face beyond ugly. His eyes darted back and forth between Aunt Fang and Zhou Erlang, filled with shock and rage. "You two are husband and wife, so what am I?!"
All sorts of gazes fell upon him, even Lord Liu couldn't help but glance subtly at the top of Shen Chang's head...
Hmm... it seems to be glowing green!
Generally speaking, Lord Liu is a person with high professional ethics and good interpersonal skills.
But such earth-shattering gossip is a rare occurrence, happening only a handful of times in a lifetime. He was so caught up in the moment that he forgot to step forward and take charge...
Aunt Fang instinctively took two steps back, shaking her head in panic, "Master, that's not true! I don't know him at all!"
Zhou Erlang was determined to ruin this slut's reputation, and he didn't care about anything else: "Your parents sold you to me for ten taels of silver. We went through a wedding ceremony, and everyone in the surrounding villages can witness it. Now that you've become successful, you want to turn your back on your promise?"
Shen Chang was terrified and his gaze shot towards Aunt Fang like a sharp arrow!
The latter felt a chill run down his spine, gritting his teeth and trying to remain calm: "That's all your side of the story. What evidence do you have? Sir, I think this man clearly has malicious intentions and is deliberately trying to extort us..."
Her eagerness to draw a line completely enraged Zhou Erlang. He was so angry that his chest heaved, and he blurted out, "I also know you have a mole on your butt!"
Aunt Fang's face suddenly turned deathly pale, and her body swayed precariously.
Shen Chang was shocked, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked!
Others may not understand, but doesn't he?
Aunt Fang did indeed have a small mole on her buttocks, which was barely visible unless you looked closely. Yet this person knew it perfectly well…
An uproar erupted around them, with everyone discussing the matter.
"How could you know so much about such a private part of your body if you hadn't seen it with your own eyes?"
"Isn't that right? It seems the Minister is being cuckolded without even realizing it!"
