He roared in rage, "You are talking nonsense! This is all slander. Sima Xin, Sima Zhi, you will pay the price for slandering the officials appointed by the court. I will go and beat the drum to report to His Majesty and ask him to punish you severely..."

"Let's go. It's the grandson who won't go. Tang Xunze, don't think that no one will remember because time has passed. After all, you are only forty years old. There are many old men and women from the previous dynasty in the capital. If you ask carefully, someone will definitely remember that Old Master Tang took a Hu woman as a concubine. Originally, our Sima family could have ignored this matter of bloodline, but how you treated my sister and my nephew is known to everyone in the capital. Even the wild bastard selling pickles dared to bully and beat them. Tang Xunze, you are going too far, too far..."

Sima Zhi grew angrier as he spoke, and waved his hand, "Beat them, smash them, and take care of the yards of my aunt and my two nephews. Take away all the valuables, and don't leave a single thread for the Tang family."

All the Sima family members, young and old, male and female, rushed forward like wolves and tigers.

Tang Xunze was surrounded by his four uncles, who beat him up with punches and kicks until he gained several pounds. The neighbors, who were watching the fun, started to talk about it.

"Oh my god, is Lord Tang really such a person? I can't tell!"

"You can't get into his heart, so how can you know his true nature? I don't know if he was born by a woman named Hu, but he beat his eldest son when he was a child, and that was really cruel. Young Master Tang was very smart when he was young, with handsome looks and a strong body. That time, he had a fight with several sons of the second wife, and he beat four of them alone without any fear. If this was my son, I would definitely hire a master to raise him well, and when he grew up, he would join the army and make meritorious contributions and be awarded a title. But Master Tang didn't follow the ordinary path. He insisted on teaching his son a lesson and apologizing to the second wife. It is said that the stick he used to beat his son was very thick... Young Master Tang was beaten stupid by Master Tang that time. At that time, we still suspected that the young master was not his biological son. If he was, how cruel would he be? Did he want to beat his son to death to destroy the evidence?"

"It seems to be the case without a doubt. The Sima family is not sure, so they dare not come to cause trouble. My dear, you can vent your anger by fighting this, but does my sister still want to live?"

Tang Xunze, who was being beaten, seemed to have heard the wonderful Buddhist teachings. He spat out the front teeth that were knocked out of his mouth and threatened fiercely: "Where is Xima Xi? Why doesn't she come? I want to search her and see if she has the courage to show herself..."

There is serious air leakage.

Sima Zhi slapped him again, "Is it your turn to divorce my sister? It's my family that wants to divorce you! Take it from me, this is the divorce letter." Sima Zhi threw a divorce letter in Tang Xunze's face. Of course, it was still very difficult to divorce a man in this day and age. If Tang Xunze did not accept it, he would probably have to go to Jingzhao Prefecture to sue for a divorce.

Tang Xunze was panicked and angry. He was a bad and cowardly person by nature. The Sima family was really reckless and making trouble with him. He was scared to death and felt even more guilty.

He was speechless and wanted to run away. Fortunately, the Sima brothers did not want to kill him and let him escape to the second house gate. The second master had heard the noise and did not dare to come out to stop him. He just hid on the side of the gate and watched. When he saw the third brother escape into his own courtyard, he quickly locked the door.

Tang Xunze acted like a coward. The Sima family beat and smashed him enough. The servants moved and carried away everything in the three courtyards of Mrs. Tang and her son. They even dug up the flowers and trees they had planted, leaving nothing behind.

The onlookers were amazed. The Sima family had made such a scene that it seemed they were determined to divorce.

Rong Wanli went back to study what he had seen. Rong Tang sighed with regret. Why didn't the Sima family come to invite him? He dared to beat them up and beat the Tang family until they cried and shouted that they were breaking off their relationship.

Rong Wanli seemed to understand what he was thinking and poured a bucket of cold water on him, "Don't let your imagination run wild. If you want to hit Lord Tang, a righteous death is the least of your worries. A beating from Jingzhao Prefecture is the worst."

In the eyes of the world, Tang Xunze's status is the same as Jin Shizhao's. He is the only one who is filial to him, and he has no right to take action, unless the two of them are rebellious, then he can kill his relatives for the sake of justice.

After the incident, Tang Xunze did not go to beat the drum to file a complaint to the emperor as he said. He did not even go to Jingzhao Prefecture. So many people guessed that what the Sima family said was true. Tang Xunze was really born to a concubine named Hu. Over the years, he deliberately framed his wife and persecuted the child. His cruelty was appalling.

However, at night someone kicked the door of the Bo's mansion. The gatekeeper looked through the crack in the door and saw that it was the master of the next courtyard, Minister Jin. He did not dare to open the door and hurried to report to the back.

Rong Tang was just about to fall asleep when Rong Wanli woke him up and rushed forward, cursing. When Rong Xiu heard it was Jin Shizhao, she hurriedly put on her clothes and sat up, combing her hair again before going out. However, the trouble of dressing up meant she couldn't leave for a while.

Rong Tang asked the doorman to open the door and let Jin Shizhao in. He saw a man wearing a big cloak following behind him. He was not afraid of getting prickly heat even in the hot weather. He knew that there was something wrong with the identity of the person.

As expected, when he opened it, he revealed Tang Xunze's pig-headed face. Rong Tang laughed out loud without disguising himself, "Master Tang, the food has been pretty good these days!"

Jin Shizhao cursed angrily, "You bastard! Did you extort twenty thousand taels of silver from the Tang family today? Are you crazy because of poverty? You don't care about your dignity at all. You have completely ruined the reputation of the Jin family."

Rong Tang just thought it was bullshit.

"The Jin family's reputation was ruined by you, the Jin family. My last name isn't Jin. As for extorting money, what evidence do you have? It's a fact that the Second Young Master Tang stole my horse. Now that my horse is gone, shouldn't the Tang family pay compensation? Don't think that just because we have no connection, you can avoid compensation. Minister Jin said I was crazy because of poverty, so I am crazy because of poverty. You have squandered all the Rong family's wealth, and I see every penny. If you don't accept it, go to Jingzhao Prefecture and sue me! Either compensate me for the horse or pay the money, don't try to fool me."

Jin Shizhao beat his chest and stamped his feet, "Rebellious son, Lord Tang is a relative of the Jin family, don't you have any mercy at all?"

"Where are the in-laws? The Jin and Tang families! Are you talking about your bastard and the Tang family's concubine's daughter's marriage? Sorry, this has nothing to do with the Jian'an Earl's Mansion. Minister Jin wants me to give your in-laws face, that's fine, you return the dowry you stole from my mother, return 20,000 taels, and I will return the horse money to the Tang family. Hey, Lord Tang has never acknowledged the engagement between me and Tang Xiaoqi, so I just pretend I don't know Lord Tang."

As for Jin Shizhao, he was at least a Minister of Rites. Every time he met Rong Tang, he never won an argument. Rong Tang just bore him the empty title of son and never gave him any respect or face.

Seeing that Jin Shizhao was about to faint from anger, Tang Xunze hurriedly said: "My lover Yinli and Tiantian are separated, my son-in-law and my mother-in-law are separated..."

"Wait, wait." Rong Tang stopped him. "Don't be like this. If you don't admit it, then don't admit it. But you admit it as soon as I ask you to pay the money. It's like you're using your daughter to pay off a debt. This is disrespectful to me and to Miss Tang."

"Do you want fish to drink?"

Rong Tang thought for a moment, "Since you've acknowledged the engagement, you're one of us. I can't ask for compensation, but I'm really broke. How about this: 20,000 taels will be Miss Tang's dowry. She'll be married into the Rong family early. That way, I can spend the money as I please, and it will also bring honor to you, my father-in-law."

Tang Xunze was furious, "How bad am I?"

Jin Shizhao also pointed at him and cursed, "Asshole, is this what a human being would say?"
