Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Chapter 643 Shen Guannian, you ungrateful wolf

Qi didn't expect that he would divorce his wife directly. She thought that just because she gave birth to two sons and a daughter, Shen Guannian would at most beat and scold her severely and put her under house arrest for a period of time. She didn't expect him to be so ruthless.

She hurriedly crawled to him and hugged his legs: "Master, please don't divorce me for the sake of my bearing you children! I know I was wrong, and I will never dare to do it again. I will listen to you honestly from now on!"

"This family still needs a mistress to take care of it, especially since Tang'er is getting married soon. If you divorce me, you will have to worry about all these messy things by yourself!"

Shen Guannian kicked her away in disgust.

The adulterer has already admitted that his affair with Qi has been going on for a long time, and he has been cuckolded by Qi countless times without his knowledge!

Therefore, he felt dirty and disgusted whenever Qi touched him.

"Tang'er is getting married, and you don't need to take care of it!"

Shen Guannian's voice was as cold and hard as it could be: "You called this adulterer here, isn't it just to let him destroy Tang'er's innocence so that Tang'er can't marry into the Duke's Mansion? I dare let you arrange Tang'er's marriage? Do you really think that I, Shen Guannian, am so stupid?!"

"Besides, do you think that if you let this adulterer ruin Tang'er's innocence, I will go along with it and marry Tang'er off to such a despicable fellow?"

Qi was stunned. Could it be that? If Shen Wantang was really possessed by Wei Dazhang, who else could she marry if not Wei Dazhang?

Shen Guannian knew what she was thinking from her expression. He sneered, "I, Shen Guannian, am at least an official appointed by the imperial court. I'm a fifth-rank official and a proper Jinshi. I've studied hard for over twenty years, all for the hope that one day I can rise to prominence, be reborn, and never again be a pariah!"

"If Tang'er's innocence is truly destroyed, I would rather drown her than marry her to a lowly pariah! Because a pariah is not worthy of marrying my daughter!"

After hearing this, Shen Wantang didn't react much, because she had already anticipated such an outcome. For the sake of reputation, Shen Guannian might really drown her, and then turn around and announce to the public that she committed suicide because she could not bear the humiliation.

Shen Mingxuan's face suddenly turned pale. She screamed in fear, "Father, I don't want to die! I, I, I will listen to you. I will marry whoever you tell me to marry!"

Shen Guannian looked at her coldly. "Originally, I should have drowned you the first time you were sold to Chichun Lane. If I were cruel enough, I wouldn't have lost you again today! But fortunately, it's not too late to drown you now."

"No! No no no! Father, please spare me! I'm still young and I don't want to die! Mother, mother, save me!"

Qi hadn't expected Shen Guannian to be so cruel. She was completely panicked. "Master, Xuan'er is your biological daughter. How could you drown her? What happened today wasn't her fault. It's all my fault. Master, please punish me. I'll take all the beatings and scoldings. I beg you to spare Xuan'er's life!"

Shen Guannian closed his eyes in disgust. He now even felt sick when he heard this woman's voice.

After a while, he suppressed the disgust in his heart and said coldly: "The biggest mistake I have made in my life is that I shouldn't have listened to my mother and married a fool like you!"

"I passed the imperial examination and should have had a better marriage. I could have married a daughter from an official family. I could have had a better future!"

"You've ruined everything! You should have died with your daughter!"

Qi's face turned pale. "Master, have you forgotten that you were able to pass the imperial examination because of my family's financial support? Our marriage was decided a long time ago. When I married you, I was marrying down!"

"Now that you're an official, have you forgotten the kindness my family has shown you? Do you want me dead? Did you divorce your wife and remarry? Do you already have a woman you'd like to marry as your second wife?!"

"Shen Guannian, you ungrateful bastard, you deserve to be a lowly official! You deserve to never be able to get your job back!"

Shen Guannian suddenly stood up and slapped her hard!

His low official position has always been the biggest pain in his heart, even more painful than being cuckolded by Qi.

He will fight to the death with anyone who dares to poke his sore spot.

Qi screamed in pain after being beaten, blood oozing from the corner of her mouth, and even a tooth fell out!

Shen Guannian wiped his hands with a handkerchief with a gloomy face and ordered the servant: "Come here, tie up this adulterer and adulteress and throw them into the woodshed in the backyard!"

As he spoke, he looked at Shen Mingxuan again: "I don't know whose child this little bitch is, maybe it's the adulterer's, tie them up together!"

Sanshui and Santu knew that Shen Guannian was really angry at the moment, so they didn't dare to breathe. They took the rope and stepped forward, tying them up in a few strokes.

Shen Mingxuan looked at Shen Guannian in disbelief: "Father! What nonsense are you talking about? I look so much like you, of course I am your daughter! How could you doubt me? If there is anyone who doesn't look like you, then Shen Wantang is the one who looks the least like you. Why doesn't father suspect that she is not your biological daughter?!"

Shen Guannian glanced at Shen Wantang and said, "Tang'er is smart and loves reading. He can even teach himself medicine. This talent is clearly inherited from me!"

"But you did remind me. I was wondering why your two brothers were so stupid and their studies were such a mess. Who knows, maybe they aren't even my biological children!"

Shen Mingxuan was dumbfounded: "Father, you are crazy! How could my eldest and second brothers not be your biological children!"

"Mother, please speak up! Tell me when did you and this adulterer start dating? How old is he? He's clearly only a few years older than my brother!"

"Big brother and second brother can't bear such a bad reputation because of your ridiculous behavior! You must explain it clearly to father!"

Qi didn't say anything, but just kept crying.

It was obvious that Shen Guannian wanted to kill her, so he used this tactic of killing a thousand enemies and hurting himself eight hundred, saying that his son and daughter were not his biological children.

He must have recently climbed up the social ladder by marrying into the Duke's Mansion! He has a woman he likes!

This time she is really finished!

Shen Guannian didn't care about Shen Mingxuan's shouting and directly ordered people to drag them away.

Only Shen Wantang and Shen Guannian were left in the room.

Shen Guannian's gloomy expression eased a little, and he said in a gentle tone: "Tang'er, you were also frightened today, but fortunately, you are safe. Go back and rest!"

Shen Wantang responded and just as he turned to leave, he heard Shen Guannian say again:

"You should understand the principle of keeping dirty laundry secrets private, so don't tell Second Young Master Gu about this, and don't tell the Duke's wife either. If something like this happens to your sister, you'll be looked down upon, so just keep this to yourself!"
