Madam Song ate some food and drank some sugar water and woke up from her coma.

She weakly raised her hand and trembled, pointing at Tian Chunshan and the woman holding the child, and angrily accused: "These bastards are trying to kill me, Regent, make the decision for me!"

After using all her strength to finish this sentence, Madam Song closed her eyes again. The doctor came forward and examined her and said, "It's just exhaustion, plus the torture these days, he will wake up after a rest."

After the doctor said this, he glared at Tian Chunshan with disgust, calling him dirty and shameless.

Tian Chunshan broke out in a cold sweat and now only wanted to get rid of the charges as soon as possible.

"Who are you? Why are you meddling in my family affairs?"

"You broke into a private house and must have taken advantage of Mrs. Song's illness to say bad things about me in front of her. Mrs. Song was deceived by you."

"Sir, these two broke into my house and kicked my door like that. You should arrest them right away!"

The Beijing guard turned around and looked at Wei Dongzhu. Does this man look familiar?

Wei Dongzhu immediately removed the disguise on his face and said in a clear and clear voice: "I am the commander of the Imperial Guards, Wei Dongzhu! The last man of the Wei Family Army in the northwest!"

It is very likely that the people do not know who is the leader of the Imperial Guards, but who does not know the Wei Family Army?

Everyone in the entire Zhou Dynasty, from the child as young as three years old to the elders, knew about it.

The Beijing guards also recognized Wei Dongzhu. General Wei is here, so who are the people around him?

Shen Lanxi removed the disguise on her face and calmly explained: "I wanted to go incognito to observe the Ming and Qing dynasties today, but I didn't expect that I would come to the right place!"

All the Beijing guards recognized Shen Lanxi and knelt down together.

"Long live the Regent!"

Shen Lanxi: "Get up, you guys are here just in time!"

The captain of the Beijing guards immediately ordered his men to call for help. With only a few of them protecting the emperor, what if someone attempted to assassinate him?

The people were dumbfounded; they actually saw the Regent.

Wei Dongzhu raised his voice: "All the people should step back ten meters to give the Regent room to investigate the case."

The Beijing guards quickly stretched out their arms to clear the area.

The people obediently gave up their space and no one dared to speak out.

Tian Chunshan felt his head spinning. It was over. The Tian family was over!

Wei Dongzhu moved a chair for Shen Lanxi to sit on, and he stood beside her to protect her.

"Tian Chunshan, your whole family was exiled. If it weren't for Madam Song's fighting, you would have died on the way to exile."

"Now you're saying that she's out in the open and not taking care of her mother-in-law and children. Don't you have arms and legs and can't take care of them?"

Tian Chunshan’s face turned pale and he kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.

"Lord Regent, that's not what I meant. I am grateful to Madam Song, but she was having an affair with another man. I tried to dissuade her but she refused to listen. It was Madam Song who was unfaithful to her husband and made herself sick. Now she wants to blame me. I am innocent!"

Shen Lanxi: "You don't need to quibble. When Madam Song wakes up, there will be a conclusion. I have already sent people to investigate, and invite everyone in your family to come here so that we can confront each other face to face!"

Tian Chunshan's heart sank to the bottom, and resentment and ferocity slowly appeared in his eyes.

"Prince Regent, you are a woman, so you will definitely side with women. Since ancient times, it is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. Song is jealous and committed one of the seven grounds for divorce. She bullied my mother, which is unfilial. She also did not educate the children at home, which is unkind. I have done my best for such an unfilial and fickle woman."

Shen Lanxi: "This is not a reason for you to lock her up and let her starve to death!"

Tian Chunshan was terrified. He didn't want to die. It was obvious that the Regent would not help him. But he was not wrong either. If Shen Lanxi wanted to convict him, she would offend all the male protagonists in the world.

She dare not!

"Prince Regent, Song relies on you as her backer to be arrogant and domineering at home, disrespectful to her mother-in-law, and does not take me, her husband, seriously at all. If such a woman lived in the countryside, she would have been thrown into a pig cage long ago."

Shen Lanxi looked at Tian Chunshan with a dagger-like gaze: "The reason why your Tian family was able to return from Dongchuan was because of Madam Song. Your luxurious living and wealth were also earned by Madam Song. Since you already dislike her, why don't you divorce her?"

"You're willing to drag me out and trample on me, because you think I'll help you out of shame, so that you can cover up the truth of murder for money?"

Tian Chunshan only wanted to survive, so he risked his life.

"The reason why the Song family is so arrogant is because they are relying on your influence, right?"

Shen Lanxi: "So, you still blame me for promoting Madam Song?"

Tian Chunshan felt like she had to let out the anger in her chest, thinking that Shen Lanxi would definitely not let her go, so she just went for it.

"Yes, I am the man in the family. Even if you promote someone, you promote a man. But you promote a stupid woman who only knows how to throw tantrums. Just because you are also a woman, you don't look at her ability, but promote her just because she is a woman?"

Wei Dongzhu angrily shouted: "How outrageous!"

Shen Lanxi's eyes flashed and she raised her hand.

"You asked the question that all men in the world want to ask!"

The men in the crowd began to whisper to each other.

Shen Lanxi sneered contemptuously: "Let the people around here see what talents you have?"

"You said that I am a woman and only promote women? Why don't you show me some of your talents?"

"I, Shen Lanxi, will make this clear today. When I, Shen Lanxi, promote someone, I never look at gender, family background, or qualifications. Even if you have a lame leg or an arm missing, as long as you have the talent to govern the world, I will still use you!"

This sentence reminded the people of a person, the lame marquis Zhao Zheng.

They saw clearly Zhao Zheng going in and out of the imperial city several times when he went out to quell the rebellion.

"Who do you think you are? You think you have talent? When I was in Dongchuan, I only saw Madam Song charging into battle, while you were picking up the ready-made things from behind. Now that you are well off, you start to despise your wife for being vulgar. You are so shameless!"

All the women around nodded.

Shen Lanxi raised her voice: "Today, I will take this opportunity to change the marriage laws of my Great Zhou. I will never let such a shameless and sinister villain take advantage of women!"

Wei Dongzhu's eyes moved, so her purpose was to amend the law?

No wonder he had the patience to talk so much to Tian Chunshan.

"Call all the officials from the Ministry of Justice, the Supreme Court, the Censorate, the Ministry of Justice, the Imperial Household, the Court of Justice, and other departments involved in the revision of the law. I will amend the law in public and open a way out for women!"

Everyone's eyes widened in shock, unable to believe what they heard.

Shen Lanxi actually wanted to change the law that had been in use for a hundred years just for a mere woman?

She's not kidding, is she?

How dare she do that? Isn't she afraid of being scolded by scholars all over the world and opposed by the civil and military officials in the court?

Of course the women were happy, but some men were not.

What does it mean to open a way out for women? Since ancient times, women have been following their fathers at home, following their brothers after their fathers die, and following their husbands after they get married. This has never changed. Women in the past and now are living well, so why should there be a way out?

Why did Shen Lanxi change when she came? She was simply throwing their men's faces to the ground and stepping on them.
