Rebirth: The wedding night, my whole family was exiled, I raised 500,000 soldiers

Chapter 496 Those who have daughters at home, please stand up!

The minister who was summoned wanted to reprimand Shen Lanxi for her mischief, but just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Madam Song who had just woken up.

Shen Lanxi: "Laws are nothing more than human feelings. If the people don't report it, the officials won't investigate it. Madam Song, are you going to sue Tian Chunshan's family or not?"

When the Tian family heard her say this, their eyes immediately lit up, and they immediately pushed Madam Song's two children and begged her for mercy.

"Daughter-in-law, the children can't live without a father. Do you want to let them watch you sue our family?"

"My dear, I was wrong. I will never do it again. It was that little bitch who bewitched me. I am usually a very loyal and honest person, as you know."

"Mother, please don't sue father. If you sue father, we will just pretend that you don't exist as a mother."

Madam Song's eyes went dark and she almost fainted again. She gritted her teeth and looked at these ungrateful wolves.

"You are all beasts. You eat my food, drink my water, use my things, and finally want to kill me. Even after I die, you want to eat my flesh and drink my blood. You are simply not human beings."

"You little bastards are threatening me. Without me, you are nothing. Bah! I will sever all ties with you today. It's not that you don't recognize me, it's me who doesn't recognize you."

"Tian Chunshan, you are the biggest ungrateful person. You usually act like a sheep, but you are actually a wolf in sheep's clothing. What do you mean by bewitched? If you didn't have that intention, would she still have stripped naked and forced herself to sit on you?"

Tian Chunshan glared at her and wanted to call her a rude and barbaric woman, but unfortunately his mouth was blocked by the ties and he could only hum.

"Mother, how can you say such vulgar words?" Mrs. Song's son looked disgusted.

"Bah! Isn't what I said the truth? If Tian Chunshan wasn't aroused, how could that bitch get pregnant?"

"Tian Chunshan, you are an ungrateful coward. I am so blind!"

Tian Chunshan's mother immediately protected her son and pointed at Madam Song: "Don't say that about my son. How can you be worthy of my son? Others' wives respect their parents-in-law, serve their husbands, and take care of their children. What about you? You are just like a shrew in the countryside who can only roll around. What's the difference? If it weren't for my son's kindness, he would have divorced you, a wicked woman, long ago!"

Madam Song's eyes were about to pop out of her sockets with hatred.

Shen Lanxi: "I already know the details. You courtiers should be able to understand something from listening to their quarrel."

When the man in Confucian robes saw Shen Lanxi talking to the court officials, he quietly stepped back, and when he saw that no one was paying attention, he turned around and ran away.

Shen Lanxi: "You can tell a person's character by his words and deeds. Among the court officials here, those who have daughters at home, please stand up!"

"I have a daughter at home."

"I also have a daughter at home."

At first, only one or two people stood up. When the rest of the people saw so many people standing up, they all stepped forward.

"This is because every family has a daughter." Shen Lanxi chuckled.

"What would you think if your daughters were married to such a family, where they were exploited and murdered for money. They were brought up to hate their mother and were considered an enemy by the whole family?" No one would feel the pain unless the stick hit them.

Shen Lanxi pointed at someone and said, "Shaoqing of the Taichang Temple, I remember that your brother had a daughter. She died last year, right?"

The Shaoqing of Taichang Temple changed his expression, and his heart ached when he talked about his niece.

"Yes, my niece died of illness last year."

Shen Lanxi: "The Dali Temple handed over a memorial a few days ago. It said that your niece's maid took a blood letter to the Dali Temple to sue your niece's husband's family for money and murder. What she said is very similar to what happened to Madam Song today. I wonder if you know about this matter?"

The Shaoqing of Taichang Temple felt a chill on his back, and his eyes were full of struggle.

"From your expression, you must have known about it. Unfortunately, in order to make the Dali Temple pay attention to this matter and to show her determination, the maid hit her head against the pillar and died on the spot after delivering the blood letter. It is rare to see such a loyal maid."

The Shaoqing of the Taichang Temple turned his head and glanced at the whereabouts of the Minister of War. After weighing the pros and cons, he said, "My niece did die of illness."

Shen Lanxi: "According to what you said, that maidservant made a false accusation?"

The Shaoqing of Taichang Temple remained silent.

Shen Lanxi said coldly: "Your brother's daughter died, are you just going to let this matter go like this?"

The Shaoqing of Taichang Temple remained silent.

Suddenly someone shouted

“It doesn’t count!”

The shouting person pushed the crowd away, rushed to Shen Lanxi and knelt down.

"Regent, it doesn't count. She is my daughter, not my eldest brother's daughter. He can't sacrifice my daughter for his future!" The man was already sobbing as he spoke.

The assistant minister of the Ministry of War immediately rebuked him angrily: "We are talking about Madam Song's case now. Where did you come from? Leave quickly, or don't blame me for punishing you!"

When the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple saw his brother rushing out, his face changed.

"Lord Regent, my niece's case has nothing to do with Madam Song's matter. My brother lost his daughter, so it's inevitable that he's emotionally disturbed. I'll send him back to rest!"

Shen Lanxi smiled and said, "Your niece's case? So you admit that your niece was murdered?"

The Shaoqing of Taichang Temple turned pale and his legs began to go weak.

"Since the two cases are similar, let's try them together."

The Minister of War immediately retorted: "Prince Regent, didn't you call us here to amend the law? How did it become a trial now?"

"Since we are changing the law, let's go back to the palace to discuss it. Discussing state affairs on the street is just a joke and nonsense!"

Shen Lanxi looked at him coldly: "Why, are you afraid that I will expose you for condoning your nephew's murder?"

The Minister of War felt as if he had been slapped in the face.

"I remember that you have six daughters in your family. Four of them are married, and there are two to be married?"

The Minister of War immediately stared at Shen Lanxi coldly. What did she want to do?

Shen Lanxi: "What if it was your daughter who encountered this? Would you also swallow your anger and watch your daughter being hastily buried, watch your husband's family embezzle your daughter's property, watch your daughter's offspring being raised in a distorted way, and finally being driven out of the house?"

The Minister of War looked choked and said after a long while: "They dare not."

Shen Lanxi: "Yes, you are the Minister of War, so your daughter's husband's family dare not. But there is only one Minister of War, and there are tens of thousands of people in the world. The daughters of those families don't have a father who is the Minister of Personnel."

Wei Dongzhu: "Well said, the Regent King supports women, even a man like me admires him. Although I am a man, I have a mother and a sister, and I will have a wife and daughter in the future. If I encounter such a thing, I will never allow my father to treat my mother like this, and my sister to be treated like this by her husband's family. If they dare to treat my daughter like this, I will chop them all up to avenge my daughter even if I have to sacrifice my life!"
