In the case of the old lady and Mrs. Wang's murder of the late old lady, the Ministry of Punishment made a decision very quickly.
He was publicly executed at the city gate seven days later.
Shen Wan originally wanted to imprison the two of them until autumn and then execute them.
The old lady had enjoyed prosperity and wealth for decades, but Shen Wan wanted her to linger for a few months like a rat in the gutter before taking her life.
But the prison of the Ministry of Punishments was cold and damp. How could the old lady, who had been pampered and pampered all her life, endure such hardship? In addition, in the past two months, the old lady had been hit one after another, and she was already sick. After being imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishments for only one day, the old lady lost half of her body. The Ministry of Punishment concluded that she could not survive even half a month.
To the Ministry of Punishment, it made no difference whether the old lady died of illness in the cell or was beheaded in public. It would have been easier to die directly. However, Shen Wan wanted to accept the arrangement of the Ministry of Punishment as the old lady was sentenced to death in full view of the public.
During these seven days, Prince Ling's Mansion had a very peaceful life, but Pingyang Hou's Mansion was busy.
Busy breaking up the family.
Originally, Shen Jing planned to finish his work this month and free up next month before splitting up the family.
But the plan could not keep up with the change. Before the separation, the evil things the old lady had done were exposed, and Shen Jing could not tolerate the second wife staying in the Hou Mansion any longer.
The Hou family has a great business, and it will take a long time to count the things in the palace. The most difficult thing to deal with is the things in the old lady Qinghui's courtyard. The old lady murdered the late madam, and made everyone think that she was really against the late old lady. The love between sisters is deep. She broke off the engagement and married the old Marquis as a second marriage. She took good care of the Marquis. The dowry left by the old lady was naturally taken care of by the old lady.
When Shen Jing married the Yun family, the old lady gave some of it to Shen Jing as a betrothal gift. Several lords in the Hou family also gave some to the old lady when they married, but at least half of it was still in the hands of the old lady.
If Shen Jing had turned a blind eye in the past, it would have been fine. Now that the old lady's evil deeds have been exposed, if the old lady does not get back her dowry, she will be getting two and three bedrooms for free.
Manager Li led his men to look at the dowry list and turned over the old lady's dowry. They seized all the old lady's belongings that they could find, and made compensation for those things that had been misappropriated by the old lady.
After some calculations, the old lady's dowry was very little left, so she divided it into two parts, so as not to cause trouble for the Marquis if the third room who had been sent away came back to make trouble.
The old lady was married to the old Marquis as a second wife. Normally, the second and third bedrooms in a family would be divided according to the direct descendants. Now, the property is divided according to the concubine.
Of all the things in the public house, the eldest bedroom takes up 70%, and the remaining 30% is divided equally between the second, third and fourth bedrooms.
The second wife did not agree with this way of dividing the family, but the second wife made a fuss and then stopped. Shen Jing said, "Either we will divide the family according to the concubines, or I will drive your second wife out of the Pingyang Marquis Mansion."
When Shen Jing said this, there was a murderous look on his face.
The second wife was scared to death, how could she dare to say no?
Shen Jing is a person who can do what he says, and he is definitely not trying to scare her.
The separation went smoothly.
Manager Li divided the 30% between the second and fourth bedrooms, and gave the remaining 30% to the third bedroom.
The happiest thing about the separation this time is the four-bedroom house. Originally, the fourth master and his wife were looking forward to the separation. The new four-bedroom house is next to the main gate of the Marquis' Mansion. It has a side door for easy entry and exit. It is not much different from the house without separation. , but you don’t have to live under the same roof with the old lady and the second bedroom, and your life will be much more comfortable.
In the past, there were only four bedrooms for concubines, so the eldest son must occupy half. Of the remaining half, the second and third bedrooms would occupy most of the remaining half. It is estimated that the fourth bedroom would not even be able to get half of the middle house. Now that one can get 10%, it is a share. What a bargain.
And Shen Jing has always been good to the fourth house. After the father-in-law was divided, Shen Jing gave the fourth house two shops and a courtyard with four courtyards, plus 200 acres of fertile land and 10,000 taels of banknotes. In addition, he specifically asked Manager Li Shen Wei's dowry was stolen.
The fourth master and the fourth wife felt sorry for Shen Jing's kindness to the fourth house. The eldest brother and Ling Wang helped the fourth house too much.
He helped Shen Wei get engaged to the eldest son of Wei Guogong, and also helped the fourth master to take the position of arms supervisor, but the fourth house had nothing to repay.
The most important point is that after the family division, Shen Jing was limited to two and three bedrooms to move out of the Hou Mansion within three days. The fourth room was next to the Hou Mansion, so it was convenient to move. Shen Jing also allowed them to live there until the housewarming party.
The day before the old lady was executed, the Hou Mansion had finished dividing the families. Knowing that Shen Jing was divided into two and three bedrooms but not as much as the fourth one, most of the dowry she had accumulated went into the palace, and she almost died of anger in the cell. inside.
She planned her whole life, but in the end she got nothing and ended up with her body and body missing.
She is not reconciled.
But it's useless to be unwilling. Good and evil will be rewarded in the end. It's not that they won't be rewarded, it's because the time has not yet come.
On the day of the execution of Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Wang, Shen Wan was going to the city gate to watch the execution. But no matter what she said, Xie Jingyan would not let her watch such a bloody scene. He was afraid that she would be frightened, so Shen Wan could only give up the idea. .
Yinshuang was so courageous that she went to watch the execution for Shen Wan, leaving Haitang to serve Shen Wan.
After Shen Wan finished her lunch and read half of the book, Yin Shuang came back. She ran all the way back, her face flushed with heat, and a thin layer of sweat formed on her forehead.
She didn't even bother to talk when she entered the room. She poured herself a cup of tea and drank it in two or three gulps, while still breathing heavily.
Haitang saw it and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry when you come back?"
Yinshuang grinned and said, "Aren't I afraid that I'll be late when I come back? The princess has taken a nap?"
After a while, Yin Shuang said, "Fortunately, the prince stopped me and didn't let the princess go. The slaves all vomited."
Shen Wan said, "Suffering from vomiting?"
Yin Shuang nodded like garlic, "When Old Madam and Madam Wang were escorted to the execution ground, I don't know how many rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves were thrown at them, as well as stones. The old Madam's forehead was smashed. If it weren't for the Punishment Department, The officer was afraid that the old lady would be beaten to death on her way to execution, so if she stopped her, she would probably not even die at the execution ground."
Yinshuang looked delighted.
Shen Wan regretted not being able to see it in person.
Haitang said, "Did you witness the beheading of Old Madam and Madam Wang with your own eyes?"
Yinshuang nodded, "Of course, I didn't even blink."
She would definitely not dare to watch someone else behead him.
But Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Wang were chopped down. Not to mention daring to look at them, Yin Shuang wished she could take the executioner's place in their place.
The old lady was executed in public, and none of her two beloved granddaughters, Shen Ying and Shen Rong, went to see her off.
The second master collected the body for the old lady and set up a mourning hall in the new house, but no one came to express condolences.
Just kidding, when Mrs. Chen, the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, died of illness, no one came to express condolences, let alone the old lady who was executed.
Such a vicious woman is despised by everyone, and even if they go to express condolences to her, they are afraid of getting themselves into trouble.
Shen Ying was demoted to a concubine. Without the old lady to support her, she could not make waves. The second master and the third master did not have much time left in their career. The son of an enemy, his father did not care about the old marquis's face. It's easy to do something to them, but there are many people in the court who want to please their father. As long as evidence is caught, the first and third masters will be impeached, and the second and third masters will be demoted or exiled.
Shen Wan was in a happy mood, and Chun'er came in from outside and said, "Princess, Mr. Tang San of the Duke of Tan's Palace recommended Mr. Luo to investigate the Liangjiang salt case. He has made great achievements in the investigation, and the emperor has promoted him to Dali Temple."
