Shen Zhengyi quickly took the letter from Shen Si's hand.

I looked at the envelope first. The envelope had no name or words.

He reached out to open it, took out the letter from inside, and opened it to read.

This letter is full of words, describing how the Duke of Zhen mobilized 10,000 Xie family troops to sneak into the south, disguised themselves as ordinary people, and lurked around Jiang Mansion. When the time was right, he would capture the Jiang family and massacre them all.

Yes, this was the plan he had laid out before. He asked his informants to bury this letter in advance in the study of Lord Zhen Guo.

Shen Zheng held up the letter, turned around and said to the Xie family: "Mr. Zhen Guo, this is what you said. You have been upright and upright in your life. Now the evidence of your crime is conclusive, and there is no room for your quibbles."

"What letter? Let me see." Zhen Guogong looked like he was jumping over the wall in a hurry, and rushed in front of Shen Zhengyi, trying to take the letter from Shen Zhengyi's hand.

The fourth son of the Shen family, Shen Chengjue, drew his sword and stood in front of Shen Zhengyi, shouting: "I won't tolerate your arrogance, stand down."

Two guards held down Duke Zhen Guo.

The Duke of Zhen was very excited: "I didn't kill the whole Jiang family. This was a frame-up. Shen Zhengyi, you framed me."

"Is this a false accusation? After the emperor reads it, he will send someone to identify your handwriting." Shen Zheng folded the letter as if it were a treasure, stuffed it back into the envelope, and said: "Mr. Zhen Guo, you have harmed the Zhongliang Jiang Mansion, don't try to destroy it now. Now that the evidence of guilt has been proven, all the people in Zhenguo Palace will be taken to Dali Temple, and I will present the evidence of guilt to the emperor, who will make a decision."

The jailers of Dali Temple rushed into the main courtyard and put shackles and handcuffs on everyone in the Xie Mansion.

Xie Yujin looked down at the handcuffs, then looked up at Shen Zhengyi: "Wait a minute."

"Young Master, what else do you have to say?" Shen Zheng narrowed his eyes and looked half-smiling.

Xie Yujin said: "Shen Wan came to our town's Duke's Mansion out of joy. Now that our town's Duke's Mansion is in trouble, I agree to write a letter of resignation to let Shen Wan leave the Xie family, and beg Master Shen to take her away."

This was also the plan that Shen Wan had discussed with him in advance.

Shen Wan planned to use this incident to sever ties with the Shen family.

After Xie Yujin finished speaking to Shen Zheng, he glanced sideways slightly and reluctantly said to Shen Wan: "Wan'er, I don't want to harm you, so you and I should make peace."

Shen Wan's eyes were red and she looked up at Shen Zhengyi.

Shen Zheng opened the corner of his lips, looked at Shen Wan's regretful look, and said, "My son Wan Wan is very good as you just said. My Shen family has a good way of raising a daughter, and she also has a character that cannot be insulted. She will never When the Xie family was in trouble, I abandoned the Xie family and ignored it, Sui Sui, you are right."

"Yes, Xie Lang proposed to divorce me at this time, which is an insult to the Shen family. Although I don't know what is written in that letter and what will happen to the Zhenguo Palace in the future, but what I want today is not a divorce. Feng He Li Shu."

Her eyes moved from Xie Yujin to Shen Zhengyi: "My daughter of the Shen family has not divorced her husband, but if the emperor punishes the nine clans, four of the father's clan, three of the mother's clan, and two of the wife's clan, Xie Jiaruo If I am found guilty of slaying the nine clans, I am afraid that even my mother clan, the Shen clan, will be implicated."

Shen Zheng's expression changed.

No, he has already thought about it. Once the emperor is convicted and the nine Xie family members are punished, he will announce to the public that Shen Wan is not the daughter of the Shen family.

But why, when Shen Wan said those words, Shen Zhengyi shuddered.

He stared at Shen Wan with dark eyes.

Shen Wan had already walked towards him, stood in front of Shen Zhengyi and said: "In order not to injure the Shen family, today I, Shen Wan, invited me to leave the Shen family, take off the Shen family name, and voluntarily enter the Xie family ancestral hall, bearing the surname Xie and the given name Thanks Wan."

"When the Duke of Zhen's palace rises, I will survive. When the Duke of Zhen's palace falls, I will be the ghost of the Xie family. Regardless of the prosperity or disgrace of the Xie family in the future, I, Xie Wan, will never step foot in the Shen family again. Father, this is the last time that my daughter will call you father. ."

"Xie Wan is grateful for your painstaking cultivation and upbringing over the past fifteen years, but there is no way I can repay you. In order not to implicate the Shen family, I will cut off my family lineage, cut off the love between you and my daughter, and save the lives of the whole family."

She untied the hairpin, put down her black hair, pulled out the sword in Shen Chengjue's hand, cut off a bunch of black hair, handed it to Shen Zhengyi and Shen Chengjue, and gently released the hair bundle in her hands.

Black hair fell to the ground, covering Shen Zhengyi's shoes.

Shen Zheng stepped back and looked at Shen Wan's determined eyes. It was as if someone had dug out a piece of flesh in his chest, which was empty and uncomfortable.

This was the eldest daughter of the Shen family who he had been looking forward to growing up.

It turns out that if you keep a dog for a long time, you will develop feelings for it.

There was a sour feeling in his eyes.

However, thinking about what happened to the Shen family recently, hatred suppressed the heartache and pain.

Forget it, Shen Wan is not the daughter of his Shen family after all.

He laughed, looking proud of Shen Wan's character, and nodded: "Okay, you are indeed the eldest daughter of the Shen family, a model among the noble girls of the family. My son Wan Wan has grown up, and the Shen family has A daughter is the blessing of the Shen family and the honor of the Xie family. So I will open the Shen family ancestral hall today to protect my son's desire to save the whole family of the Shen family. I accept it and return to the Shen family as soon as possible to ask the patriarch to get the genealogy, so that your sister can protect the family. heart of."

Shen Chengjue looked at Shen Wan with complicated eyes, then turned around and quickly walked out of the Zhenguo Palace.

The Xie clan members who were escorted to the lobby by the Imperial City Secretary looked at Shen Wan one after another, and were all moved by Shen Wan's words and actions just now.

The head of the Xie clan turned to King Jin and said, "Your Highness, King Jin, can you send someone back to the Xie clan's ancestral hall to get the Xie family tree? I want to help Xie's wife cross out the surname Shen."

When Shen Zheng heard this, blood surged in his chest, and he looked at Shen Wan.

The ancestral halls of the two clans were opened. Witnessed by hundreds of people, he severed the father-daughter relationship with Shen Wan and let Shen Wan leave the Shen family. From then on, there was no Shen Wan in the Shen family.

How could he... feel so uncomfortable.

The King of Jin agreed, and the Imperial City Secretary returned to Xie's ancestral hall to obtain the genealogy.

Soon, the family trees of both families were obtained.

Patriarch Xie had a heavy iron lock on his hand, but when he held the pen, he changed it from Xie Shen to Xie Wan on the spot.

She became the only named married woman in the Xie family tree.

"Dad, cross it out." Shen Chengjue handed the pen to Shen Zhengyi.

Shen Zheng turned around and took a deep look at Shen Wan, and said: "Wan'er, if the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion is really convicted of death, I will take your mother and brothers to give you decapitation meals, so that you won't let anyone die." You starve to death."

Shen Wan smiled, said "Hmm" and said, "Then I will help Master Shen."

It’s still unclear who will give this decapitation meal to whom!

Shen Zheng crossed out Shen Wan's name from the family tree and made Shen Lian the eldest daughter of the Shen family.

The two women went round and round and finally returned to the starting point.

Shen Zhengyi felt like he was holding heavy iron in his hands at this moment. He put down his pen and turned around, with only a chill in his eyes: "Take them all back to Dali Temple."

Shen Wan bowed to Shen Zheng, turned around, and walked towards Xie Yujin resolutely.

The whole family of Xie Mansion was escorted into Dali Temple.

Shen Zheng looked at Shen Wan's leaving figure, and then King Jin's voice came to his ears: "Master Shen, you are a wild wolf that you are not familiar with, are you still feeling emotions?"

Shen Zhengyi suddenly came back to his senses, quickly put away the strange look on his face, and said with a smile: "Prince Jin also said that it was just a white-eyed wolf that was not familiar with the food. I just feel sorry for it. The Shen family has carefully cultivated the dog for many years. Just like that, you entered someone else’s house.”

He covered the letter in his lapel and said, "Business matters are more important. Your Highness, Prince Jin, I want to present the evidence that the Duke of Zhen Guo conspired to harm the entire Jiang family to the Emperor first. The Xie family will be handed over to you, Your Highness."

"Ah."

Shen Zhengyi once again asked Shen Chengjue to accompany the King of Jin to escort the entire Xie family, and then hurriedly sent the letter he was carrying to the palace...
