The passers-by are vicious

Even though it was Rongcheng High School, in the eyes of the Rong family, the poor family only got there and still couldn't get into a wealthy family.

The Rong family probably never expected that Rong Cheng, whom they had once looked down upon, would become the prime minister of Ling State at the age of only thirty by relying on his own abilities.

I don’t know if I regret my initial contempt.

But now that the Rong family and the Rong family are in my relationship, Mrs. Rong’s frown finally relaxed.

The guilt towards his niece Liu dissipated a little.

Rong Cheng put down the teacup and said slowly, "I plan to marry Jiang Wanwan after this is over."

Madam Rong didn't show any surprise on her face. She just glanced at Rong Cheng calmly and said, "What title do you want to use?"

Rong Cheng had already thought about it and answered immediately: "In the name of your niece's granddaughter."

Although he knew that Rong Cheng had some plans in mind, he didn't expect him to be so hasty and plan to get married shortly after divorcing his wife.

Madam Rong looked at her son deeply and said, "It's up to you."

Never mind. It’s a rare opportunity for an old tree to bloom, so I’ll just do as he says.

"Thank you, mother."

Rong Cheng's bent fingers relaxed and a smile appeared on his warm face.

Seeing her son clearly in love, Old Madam Rong couldn't help but remind him, "I think that girl is not a quiet one."

Although Jiang Wanwan hid it very well, how could Madam Rong not notice the ambition in her eyes?

As for why I chose her, it's not just because of her appearance.

It was also because Rong Cheng looked at Jiang Wanwan differently every time he came to visit her.

Rong Cheng naturally understood Madam Rong's concerns, but since he had made the decision, he would never hesitate or regret it.

He smiled softly, "She does have a lot of little thoughts, but my son doesn't care."

Seeing this, Old Madam Rong didn't want to say anything more. It was a matter of one willing to fight and the other willing to be beaten. Even if it was her son, Old Madam Rong was too lazy to say more.

Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Old Madam Rong doesn’t care how the child lives.

"Just know it in your mind."

After saying everything that needed to be said, Madam Rong felt a little tired and started to chase people away.

"I'm tired and want to rest."

Rong Cheng naturally understood what his mother meant, and immediately stood up from the chair and straightened his sleeves.

"Then I won't bother you, son."

On the other side, Rong Zhu was staring in a daze at the dowry that was being carried out by the housekeeper. This was what she had carried in when she got married.

Now that he had to carry it back intact, a smile that looked both sad and heartbroken appeared on his face.

She was a joke. She sent out so many maids for Rongcheng, but in the end she was defeated by a lowly maid.

I should have dealt with Jiang Wanwan as soon as I heard the news, instead of considering that old woman, Madam Rong.

Before leaving the Rong Mansion, Rong Zhu held Rong Yuling's hand and said, "Your father will definitely marry her, but you will definitely let a lowly maid climb up to his head."

"You must find a way to prevent her from sitting comfortably in the position of the Prime Minister's wife."

Faced with Rong Zhu's unwilling admonition, Rong Yuling quickly agreed: "Mother, don't worry, your daughter will definitely not let it go like this."

Finally, under the close surveillance of the guards, Rong Zhu staggered out of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Outside the mansion, people who heard the news gathered from afar to watch the excitement.

Seeing Rong Zhu coming out, everyone began to whisper, "I heard that this was the Prime Minister who personally begged the Emperor to divorce his wife."

"Do you know the reason?"

"It is said that Madam Rong is not only jealous, but also often harms the maids. The Prime Minister could not bear her cruelty, so he asked the emperor to divorce her."

"She looks beautiful, but I didn't expect her to be such a vicious woman."

"Who says it isn't?"

"In my opinion, it is because she has been too strict with the Prime Minister that he has been unable to take a concubine and has no children to this day, so..."

"No, Prime Minister Rong is kind and righteous. I think this woman is going too far."

Listening to the discussions around him, Rong Zhu glared at the group of civilians fiercely.

They are just lowly people, how dare they talk nonsense about her.

Even if she was divorced, her father was the Duke of Rong, and she was still the daughter of the Rong Mansion, with a noble status that these commoners could never achieve in several lifetimes.

Although Rong Zhu was dissatisfied, she was still rational. She just looked at these civilians with contempt and got on the carriage with the help of Nanny Gu.

Before the carriage drove away, Rong Zhu suppressed her emotions, lifted the curtain, and took one last look at the plaque on the gate.

Her departure today does not mean complete failure. As long as she is alive, she will come back one day.

……

Just a few days after the prime minister divorced his wife, the gossip gradually subsided because a shocking event happened in the capital.

Duke Rong of Rongguo Mansion died suddenly of an illness. Soon after, the Rong family was reported to the emperor for abusing their positions to resell military weapons.

This incident caused a stir in the court and the emperor was furious, but no punishment had been imposed yet.

The fact that Duke Rong had been embezzling military pay was revealed again.

After a dispute in the court, the emperor issued an edict to confiscate the property of the Duke of Rong and exile him a hundred miles to the north on charges of privately reselling weapons and embezzling military pay.

The female members of the family were driven out of the Rongguo Mansion and left to fend for themselves.

The once glorious Rongguo Mansion collapsed in the blink of an eye.

The collapse of the Duke of Rong's Mansion caused quite a stir in the capital. After all, this matter involved many officials. Those who were irresponsible were demoted, and those who were involved were dismissed from their posts and exiled.

Before being exiled, the Rong family came to the Rong Mansion to find Rong Cheng, hoping that he could help plead for mercy with the emperor.

Rong Cheng refused without even meeting her.

Back then, he was forced by the Rong family to marry Rong Zhu, who was already pregnant. This had always been a thorn in his heart, but he had hidden it before.

At this moment, only when this thorn disappears can Rongcheng embrace a new life with peace of mind.

After her father passed away, Rong Zhu was exiled from the Rong family and had to live in a shabby little courtyard with other sisters.

He could only wear coarse cloth clothes without any patterns, and even the servants who took care of him had long been sold.

She could only do her own dressing and washing, without any trace of her former noble appearance.

She still couldn't accept that she had fallen to this point, and she even suspected Rong Cheng's revenge for what happened in the Rong family.

Rong Zhu ignored her embarrassed appearance and ran to the Rong residence and knocked on the door: "Open the door, I am the Prime Minister's wife, please let me in."

But no one paid any attention.

Just when she was planning to block Rong Cheng from going to court nearby, suddenly a pair of slender fingers grabbed her neck and dragged her away, disappearing around the corner.

Only the hem of a black dress could be seen flashing by. When Zhu Rong struggled to see the face of the person who was pinching her while suffocating, there was obvious surprise in her eyes.

The murderer didn't let go until her neck was strangled.

The murderer was dressed in a black robe and had a handsome and resolute face. He left only after he was sure that Rong Zhu had died.

Only Zhu Rong was left lying on the ground with her eyes wide open.

After the Duke of Rong was exiled, the matter began to go from being a topic of discussion among everyone in the capital to being forgotten.

At the same time, Rong Cheng prepared for the wedding and quickly married Jiang Wanwan.

Jiang Wanwan, wearing a phoenix crown and an intricate red wedding dress, sat on the bed waiting.

From today onwards, she is the legitimate wife of the Prime Minister.

As the door opened, Rong Cheng, dressed in a red robe, walked in. He lifted his veil and stroked Jiang Wanwan's face with tenderness in his eyes: "From today on, you are my wife."

After drinking the wedding wine, they fell on the bed, and the red liquid fell everywhere.

But every now and then, the charming voice that came from her reached the rooftop.

Cangying, dressed in black, was pouring wine into his mouth. There were five empty wine cups on the tiles beside him.

The bright moonlight in the dark night cast a light on Cangying's body, making it look a little desolate.
