Take this little lucky star home and the whole dynasty will be filled with prosperity!
Chapter 322 The imperial edict arrives
Doctor Li knelt on the ground, hunched over, and spoke hesitantly.
He was dressed in rags and it was obvious that he was living in poverty.
But he had no choice; the path of escape was destined to be sad and helpless.
He regretted so much, regretting that he had been so blinded by greed that he actually did something like poisoning and killing someone.
He was so angry. He hated that old lady for trying to kill him. He should not have helped her!
"The physical evidence is all here. What else do you have to say now?"
The old marquis turned around and looked at the old lady coldly.
At this moment, the old lady's face was pale, her whole body was limp, and she fell to the ground.
Xu Ruoheng seemed to have suffered a severe blow. He couldn't believe it and looked at his mother with sad eyes.
He knew that he was incompetent, that he was not loved by his father, and that he relied on his daughter to rise to power.
However, no matter how unbearable it was for him, he could not accept that his mother wanted to kill his father. Such an act!
"Mom, why? Why are you doing this?" Xu Ruoheng looked at the old lady with a wooden face in despair.
Unexpectedly, the old lady smiled sadly, "Why? Son, I did this all for you!!"
"You also know that mother has been planning for your future all these years in order to gain a foothold in the Marquis' Mansion. Although mother is the mistress, your father does not like her. Instead, he has a special liking for Aunt Meng who came in later."
"And you have mediocre talent. Your father is in a dilemma about the position of marquis. But I know that his heart is leaning towards Aunt Meng's son."
"If it weren't for Shen, who was predicted to be pregnant with a goddess, your position as marquis would have been given to someone else long ago."
"I planned everything carefully so that you could inherit the title smoothly. When Yanyan was one month old, I took advantage of the good fortune of the goddess' arrival and made plans for you. He happened to be infected with pneumonia at that time. If he had died, you would have inherited the title naturally!"
"Fortunately, Yanyan worked hard and was favored by the late emperor, allowing you to successfully inherit the title."
The old lady expressed her grievances and resentment with tears streaming down her face.
She married off her sister because she loved him, and she thought she would be happy to live a loving life with him until old age.
Unexpectedly, he was cold and resentful towards her, making her live such an unhappy and unwilling life.
Later, fortunately, Yanyan came into being, bringing her supreme glory. It was such a good feeling to be praised and respected by others!
Therefore, no one can stop his son from inheriting the title, let alone stop Yanyan from becoming a goddess.
"So, in your eyes, only your vanity is the most important. Even my life is not worth your vanity?"
The old marquis's gloomy face was full of disappointment.
If he examined himself, he felt that he had been kind to her. Although he did not love her, he had given her enough face and honor as the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion.
But she didn't know what was good for her and actually had vicious thoughts, even wanting to kill him. It was obvious how much blood was on her body.
If it weren't for his junior uncle's kindness, who searched out and handed this prescription to him, he wouldn't have known that he almost died tragically at the hands of his wife.
So, a few days ago, he went to thoroughly investigate the truth of that year.
As a result, when he saw the truth, he felt hopeless...
"There is no point in saying more. If I look at you any more, I will feel that my eyes are dirty. I must divorce you today!"
The old marquis's eyes were sharp and he swept his determined gaze over the elders present.
The elders looked at each other, but were unable to refute.
"I can divorce you, but I'm going to die anyway. I accept it!"
"But Heng'er has a title, you can't expel him from the family tree. He is now a legitimate marquis of the Marquisate!!"
The old lady laughed miserably, her face full of arrogance.
All the careful planning over the years have finally paid off. Xu Wancheng, the one who loses in this game in the end is you!
"The imperial edict has arrived!!"
Just when everyone was in a dilemma, they were in a dilemma.
Eunuch Wang appeared in the Marquis' Mansion holding a gold-plated imperial edict.
Everyone knelt down, prostrated themselves on the ground respectfully, and listened to the imperial edict.
Of course, there was only one person who did not kneel.
She was seen sitting on a chair in the ancestral hall, swinging her short legs, holding melon seeds in her hand, and looking at the scenes unfolding before her with an attitude of drinking tea and watching a play.
The little guy who was enjoying the show was still thinking about finding a storyteller to write it into a book and spread it around. After all, sharing happiness with others is worse than enjoying it alone.
Seeing that she did not kneel, no one dared to scold her. After all, the scene of bombing the ancestral hall was still lingering in their minds.
Now, who dares to say anything about her?
Eunuch Wang looked at Lolo with a smile, bent over respectfully, and nodded and bowed to the little guy.
He even held a cup of tea and stood respectfully by the side, waiting for the little one to eat and drink well before reading the imperial edict.
"The Emperor proclaimed, "I am the one who has received the Will of Heaven and governs the people. Considering the merits of my ministers, I should have given them more rewards. However, there is a loyal and brave Marquis who has not appreciated my kindness and has acted perversely, borrowing a huge amount of high-interest loans, which has had a very bad impact and has failed to live up to my expectations.
Some of them are arrogant because of their titles and do not respect the law; some of them are lazy in their duties and cause trouble for the country. Their behavior is really hard to forgive.
Now I have decided to strip the title of Marquis Zhongyong and take away his salary as a warning to others. I hope he will mend his ways from now on. If he does it again, he will be severely punished.
Admire this. "
After Eunuch Wang finished reading, everyone present gasped.
Just when I said that the title was unshakable, it was gone!!
This slap in the face came faster than a summer thunderstorm!
The old lady then fainted on the ground. The impact came too fast and had beaten her to pieces.
Xu Ruoheng stared at the glaring imperial edict in a daze.
He had just been immersed in the sorrow of his mother wanting to kill his father, but now he had to face the pain of being stripped of his title of marquis.
It's really adding insult to injury, adding misery to misery!!
"Thank you, Lord!"
Xu Wancheng led everyone in the marquis's mansion to express their gratitude respectfully.
He truly thanked her for this favor from the bottom of his heart.
This imperial edict came at just the right time.
Even the most timely rain never comes this soon.
"Princess, His Majesty asked me to ask you timidly, are you satisfied with the work done?" Eunuch Wang peeled the melon seeds for her carefully and held them to her with both hands in a very fawning manner.
"Well, not bad, not bad. Luo Luo is very satisfied!"
The little guy smiled and poured a handful of melon seeds into his mouth, puffing up his cheeks, looking like a little puffer fish, so cute and adorable.
The prince's happy mouth was stretched to the back of his head. This time, His Majesty will definitely be very pleased.
I have to say, this debt collector is really professional!!
After Eunuch Wang left.
The old marquis's expression was even colder than the coldest days of winter. "Come on, open the ancestral temple!"
