Good luck in pregnancy, the daughter of the prime minister's mansion has a soft waist

In a blink of an eye, a whip with sharp barbs was brought up by the servants.

This was passed down from our ancestors and is usually placed in the ancestral hall as a symbol of family rules. It is usually used to scare the younger generations and is not something to be used lightly.

Unless you have committed a heinous crime, it will never be exposed.

Shen Muxue smiled bitterly to herself, wondering what virtue or ability she had to have that forced her father to resort to family law!

Qingyi stood in front of Shen Muxue silently, as if ready to confront Shen Cheng at any time.

At this moment, the system sensed the approaching danger and immediately issued a warning: [Alert! Alert! Please leave the danger immediately.]

Shen Muxue turned a deaf ear to it.

She looked directly at Prime Minister Shen, her eyes filled with unconcealable disappointment: "Just because I told the truth, you want to punish me? I don't accept such punishment."

"You dare to talk back! This is simply outrageous!" Prime Minister Shen clenched the whip and lashed Shen Muxue fiercely.

"Instead of letting you, a rebellious son, piss me off to death, I'd rather let me teach you a lesson right now!"

The whip cut through the air, whistling and coming with great force.

If you get hit like this, your skin will definitely be broken.

Shen Muxue had no intention of dodging.

She wanted to witness this moment with her own eyes and see what kind of person her father was.

The system continues to sound the alarm: [Dangerous situation! Dangerous situation! Please take the pregnancy-preserving pill immediately.]

[Pregnancy-Safeguarding Pill: Ensures the safety of the fetus, whether it's falling off a cliff, drowning, or getting beaten. Price: 100 points.]

As the system explained, it passed the pill into Shen Muxue's mouth as quickly as possible.

The pill is slightly bitter and melts on contact.

Shen Muxue could only swallow it obediently.

Just as the whip was about to fall, Qingyi suddenly grabbed the tip of the whip at the critical moment.

"Who are you? Let go!"

"Don't let it go!"

The two sides were deadlocked when a strong voice came from the crowd: "The Han family has arrived, please make way——"

Then, a team of soldiers armed with swords rushed in and forced their way through the crowd to create a passage more than two meters wide.

A sedan slowly stopped in front of the mansion gate.

A woman in her thirties walked out of the sedan chair. She was dressed simply, but her brows revealed a majestic aura. This was completely different from the arrogance of the noble ladies in the capital, and it was a kind of indifference that came from experiencing vicissitudes of life.

Shen Muxue's heart was shocked.

The Han family, her maternal grandfather's family, has been prominent for generations and has made great achievements. Unfortunately, after her mother passed away, she lost contact with the Han family.

From the moment she saw the Han family's carriage, Shen Muxue knew that the emperor had already prepared a way out for her.

After all, she was carrying a dragon seed in her belly.

The emperor will not sit idly by and watch the Shen family make things difficult for her.

But she never expected that the person who came was her second aunt, Liu!

"Isn't this the Second Madam of the Han family? What brings you here? The mansion is so bustling with activity, it's really impolite. Once this matter is settled, please follow me into the house for some tea."

Kim is accustomed to playing the role of peacemaker.

At this moment, she was still trying her best to whitewash the situation. Liu glanced at Jin and said coldly, "Oh? I was just wondering how you were going to deal with my niece."

"It's not that I want to punish him. It's just that this child is ignorant. He ran away from home for a month and there's no news at all..."

"I took Xue'er away personally. Her grandmother was seriously ill, so I took her back home to take care of her. If you really cared about her, you should have sent someone to find out the truth." Liu's words left Jin speechless.

Without waiting for Jin's response, she turned to Prime Minister Shen and said sternly, "If I hadn't been there today, would the Prime Minister really have attacked his own daughter in the street?"

Prime Minister Shen was desperately pulling at the whip. As soon as Qingyi let go, he staggered back more than ten steps and fell directly to the ground with a thud, looking very miserable.

Qingyi sneered and complained to Liu, saying that Jin and Prime Minister Shen had framed her without any basis and demanded that she be punished according to family rules.

Her little mouth was so clever that it looked like it was covered with honey, and it almost made Prime Minister Shen die of anger.

Prime Minister Shen is not good at speaking.

But Jin, standing alone, shouted in front of everyone, "Isn't this too much of a coincidence? Madam Han, aren't you making up such a lie just to exonerate her? I don't believe she can remain clean after being missing for over a month. Why don't you find a doctor to check her body..."

After the physical examination, how can Shen Muxue still have the dignity to live in this world?

What's more, she couldn't stand such an examination at all now.

Liu was about to step in to mediate.

Shen Muxue took a step forward, her cold gaze sweeping across the crowd, finally stopping on Jin.

He spoke slowly and carefully, "Everyone here, no matter who you are, as long as anyone can produce solid evidence that I eloped with someone else, I will plead guilty. If you can't, it will be slander and defamation, and I will report it to the authorities. I want to find out who started this rumor!"

Report to the official?

Jin's face changed drastically.

He quickly said, "Your father is an official of the imperial court. If you do this... won't you make him a laughing stock in the entire capital?"

Prime Minister Shen stood up in a panic, leaning on his men for support. His goatee trembled with anger. "You shameless thing, haven't you had enough? You're even trying to report me to the police! I think you, this rebellious girl, are eager to destroy my entire lifelong reputation!"

"A father's official position and prestige are important, but a daughter's innocence and reputation are unimportant? If a father's official prestige is damaged, it can be repaired. But if a daughter's reputation is ruined, or even her life is lost, what will happen?"

Liu saw that although Shen Muxue was thin, she was extremely determined.

He nodded appreciatively and signaled his men to do as they were told.

Soon, the Jingzhao Yin arrived with his officers and soldiers. After bowing to the crowd, he said in a stern voice, "I heard that the Prime Minister's wife maliciously spread rumors and slandered the legitimate daughter. Come, bring her back to the yamen and interrogate her strictly."

Seeing the police approaching, Jin screamed in fear, "How dare you! I'm the prime minister's wife, and you're arresting me! Are you trying to kill yourself?"

Jingzhao Yin rolled his eyes in disdain.

There are many powerful people in Kyoto, and those who can serve as officials in Beijing are not pushovers.

Not to mention the prime minister's wife, even if the prime minister himself committed a crime, he would still be punished.

"take away!"

At the command, the nimble constable immediately captured Jin and dragged her out.

Jin grabbed Prime Minister Shen's collar and roared, "Master, I can't be taken to the government office. If I go there, how can I live my life in the future?"

Prime Minister Shen was about to plead for mercy, but Shen Muxue smiled and said, "Father is impartial and selfless, never showing partiality. He would have used family law based on just one rumor. Now that Madam Shen has done something wrong, how can he forgive her so easily?"

Prime Minister Shen's eyes widened: "You!"

"This is the best thing."

The Jingzhao Yin bowed to Prime Minister Shen and forcibly took Jin away.

At this moment, the direction of public opinion has completely reversed.

The discussion was no longer about whether Shen Muxue had really eloped, but rather speculation that the rumors were mostly from Jin's mouth. This stepmother was truly two-faced and vicious...

Liu patted Shen Muxue's hand and said with a sad heart, "Xue'er, I really can't stay in this Prime Minister's Mansion any longer. Why don't you come with me to the General's Mansion?"

"Thank you, second aunt, but this is my home after all."

Seeing that Shen Muxue had made up her mind, Liu did not force her. She only gave her a jade whistle and told her that she could go to the general's mansion for help at any time if she had any emergencies.

Prime Minister Shen was so angry that he almost fainted. He pointed his finger at Shen Muxue and cursed, "Now that the whole city is in an uproar, are you satisfied? Are you happy?"

"Father, you are wrong. My daughter has been slandered by rumors, and it is the reputation of the Prime Minister's Mansion that has been damaged. I am doing this to help you restore your reputation."

Prime Minister Shen clutched his chest, breathing heavily, "She is your mother! Unfilial daughter, why don't you withdraw the lawsuit quickly so that your mother can come home!"

"Father, I'm afraid you've forgotten that my mother died of childbirth complications sixteen years ago. As for Jin..."

Shen Muxue straightened her hair and her voice turned cold. "Since you dare to throw dirty water, why don't you dare to bear the consequences? We both damaged the reputation of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but father criticized me harshly, but protected Jin Shi so much? You treat them differently like this, and it makes your daughter so heartbroken."

"you!"

Prime Minister Shen pointed at Shen Muxue with trembling fingers. He was so angry that he couldn't breathe and fell down.

Shen Muxue walked straight past Prime Minister Shen and entered the mansion without even glancing at him.
