After being read, she became an empress by eating melons

The restaurant owner also ran over in a hurry, his face full of embarrassment and helplessness. He tried to explain and comfort the guests, but it was obviously no use.

After all, no one expected that this seemingly simple restaurant activity would cause such an uproar.

The wooden man had taken off his helmet, revealing his true face. His face was red, and his eyes were flashing with dissatisfaction and anger. Obviously, he had completely lost his patience with this job.

This accident caused the restaurant to temporarily fall into chaos, and Datong Restaurant became a laughing stock in the entire capital city for a while.

Soon, Eunuch Zhao told Emperor Rentong about this funny story, and the emperor was very happy: Nan Rongxi actually broke the wooden man!

As the bell rang, the court meeting officially began. The court officials came forward one by one according to their ranks to report on the affairs of the country. Their voices echoed in the empty hall, telling about the various affairs of the country. Some reported on the harvest of crops, some discussed the border defense situation, and some put forward reform suggestions. Everyone's face was full of seriousness and earnestness.

Nan Rongxi, on the other hand, was only concerned about the missing Secretary Zhao.

Nan Rongxi asked curiously: [Tongzi, how is Secretary Zhao doing now since he was exposed? How come he can't attend the court after only one day? ]

System: [Look, I was beaten up by 10 girlfriends yesterday! ]

After hearing the system's answer, Nan Rongxi couldn't help but exclaimed: [This Secretary Zhao really brought this upon himself, being beaten up by 10 girlfriends. Tongzi, how is his injury now? ]

Emperor Rentong: Secretary Zhao deserves his fate.

Baiguan: Yes, you deserve it!

System: [He is currently still lying in the clinic. Although his life is not in danger, his injuries are serious and it will take some time for him to recover.]

Nan Rongxi shook his head: [This can be considered as a lesson for this bastard. I hope he can change his ways and become a new man. Tongzi, it’s a new day. Give me some new news!]

Emperor Rentong and all the officials were distracted again, and their attention immediately shifted to Nan Rongxi.

System: [Sure, today I will tell you about the big news about Tian Jun, the doctor of the Ministry of Justice! ]

Emperor Rentong: Tian Jun? He is also a talented person from a poor family!

Tian Jun: How come it's my turn so soon?

The eyes of all officials quickly shifted to Tian Jun.

Nan Rongxi: [Okay, okay, please start your performance! ]

System: [Although Tian Jun was born in a poor family, he was very smart since he was a child and had an almost obsessive love for the knowledge in books. Despite the difficult conditions at home, he never gave up the pursuit of knowledge. He often stayed up late to study hard under the weak candlelight, trying to absorb the nutrients of knowledge. His diligence and talent also made him stand out in the rural school, winning the praise of teachers and the admiration of classmates.

Tian Jun's wife Ye Hong is a gentle and virtuous woman. She has bright eyes and a kind heart. Since she married Tian Jun, she has supported her husband's studies wholeheartedly. She silently manages the housework and takes care of the family's food and daily life, so that Tian Jun can devote himself to his studies without any worries.

Nan Rongxi was a little impatient: [Tongzi, why does it sound like a beautiful love story? I want to eat some melons, can you give me some melons to eat! ]

The system looked disdainful: [Can’t you just listen patiently? The best is yet to come!

After countless days and nights of hard study, Tian Jun finally won the first place in the imperial examination and became a new noble in the court. However, as his status improved, Tian Jun's mentality also changed. He began to dislike Ye Hong's poor background and appearance, and his attitude towards her became increasingly cold.

Nan Rongxi: [Tongzi, okay, I finally figured it out. Another scumbag who only wants a wife after getting promoted and getting rich.]

Emperor Rentong: Why are all my subjects like this?

Baiguan: Okay, okay, why do I feel like this melon is familiar...

System: [What's worse is that Tian Jun's mother, Zhang, is also a snobbish person. Ever since Tian Jun passed the imperial examination and embarked on his official career, she has begun to treat people around her with an unprecedented arrogance, especially her daughter-in-law Ye Hong.

Zhang always believed that her son should marry a woman who was of equal status and could help him, rather than a village girl like Ye Hong who was born in poverty and could only do housework silently. Therefore, whenever Tian Jun came home, Zhang would always mention those noble ladies from famous families, hinting that her son should spend more time with them instead of indulging in trivial matters at home.

Gradually, Zhang's suppression of Ye Hong became more and more obvious. She often sowed discord in front of Tian Jun, saying how Ye Hong didn't know the rules, how she wasn't virtuous enough, and even fabricated some unfounded charges to slander her. Whenever Tian Jun heard this, he would think of those noble ladies his mother had talked about, and he couldn't help but feel a little bit of resentment towards Ye Hong. 】

Nan Rongxi stared at Tian Jun fiercely: [Good fellow, Xiu'e is even more miserable this time, having to deal with such a family! As expected, marriage is something that must be handled with caution! What happened next? How is Ye Hong? ]

Emperor Rentong: Is this another tragedy?

Nan Rongjie: If you can’t find a partner, don’t make excuses…

Tian Jun also felt a chill down his spine from the stares from all the officials!

System: [Ye Hong is a smart woman. She quickly noticed Zhang's changes and Tian Jun's alienation. She silently endured everything, hoping that her husband could understand her feelings and not be confused by the outside world. However, as time went by, Tian Jun came home less and less frequently, and even if he came back, he would always leave in a hurry, and his communication with Ye Hong became very few.

Ye Hong's heart was filled with bitterness and helplessness. She knew that she could not change her mother-in-law's opinion, nor could she influence her husband's thoughts. She could only silently contribute to this family, hoping that one day she would regain her husband's understanding and respect.

However, in this snobbish family, Ye Hong's expectations seemed to become increasingly slim, and she had to endure a lot of oppression and misunderstanding.

Emperor Rentong and all the officials listened attentively, and sighed: Ye Hong is so miserable!

Nan Rongxi: [Tongzi, Ye Hong is too miserable. She really can't be an honest person. In a marriage like this, she is waiting for the New Year without getting a divorce! Tell me, did he cheat on her later? ]

Emperor Rentong: ...

Officials: ...

System: [Once, when Tian Jun was strolling in the capital, he accidentally walked into Baihua Tower. There, he met a woman named Cui'er. Cui'er was beautiful, good at singing and dancing, and Tian Jun was attracted to her. The two of them soon became very close, and Tian Jun even began to regard Cui'er as his confidante.]

Nan Rongxi: [It’s Baihualou again. Why do they all like to go to Baihualou? ]

Emperor Rentong: I have never been there!

Officials: ...

Nan Rongjie: Please be more reserved when speaking...

System: [I don’t know the answer to this question either… Let’s get back to talking about Ye Hong! ]

Nan Rongxi: [Well, okay, keep going! ]

System: [Ye Hong noticed the change in her husband, and she felt extremely bitter. She knew her husband had changed his mind, but she still held a glimmer of hope, hoping that he would change his mind. However, Tian Jun became more and more addicted to Cui Er's gentleness, and became more and more indifferent to Ye Hong.

Tian Jun also lied to his mother, saying that Cui Er was the daughter of a high-ranking official. Seeing this, Tian Jun's mother unscrupulously suppressed Ye Hong. She often showed off Cui Er's good qualities in front of Ye Hong, making Ye Hong feel ashamed and her life became more and more difficult.

Nan Rongxi was furious: [This is too much. If I were Ye Hong, I would have divorced right away. I would have felt sick if I stayed for even one more minute! What happened next? When can we get divorced?]
