Marrying a concubine and swallowing her dowry? The mistress turns around and marries a high-ranking

Chapter 454

Madam Yin was taken aback, completely bewildered by the unexpected reaction from the Shen family.

...Weren't they talking about divorcing his wife? Why did they suddenly barge into the Yin residence!

Madam Yin realized what was happening and quickly chased after them.

"What are you doing! Stop right there! That's the inner courtyard, outsiders aren't allowed to enter! You're trespassing!"

The Shen family members completely ignored them and walked straight in, alarming the entire Yin family.

Madam Yin was both anxious and angry. She called over servants to try to stop them, but these servants were no match for Shen Wei and Shen Jingyang, two battle-hardened experts. As soon as they came up, they were thrown away.

Shen Lingxia led the way and stormed into the small courtyard where Jian Qingshuang lived. Jian Qingshuang was inside, gazing at the small patch of sky and shedding tears. When she saw the Shen family members storming in, she was quite frightened by the scene.

"Who...who are you! What do you want!"

Ignoring her, Shen Lingxia barged into the inner room, walked to Jian Qingshuang's bedside, and pulled out the small box containing Jian family heirlooms.

Jian Qingshuang was terrified and her soul almost left her body. She rushed forward to snatch it.

"Give it back! What right do you have to touch my things like that!"

Shen Lingxia stepped aside slightly, and Jian Qingshuang missed her target, almost bumping her head on the corner of the bed.

At this moment, Old Madam Yin, along with the servants of the Yin family and Yin Bohong, who was covering his face and sobbing, followed them in.

In front of them, Shen Lingxia opened the small box and took out all the jade pendants, gold locks, and necklaces inside, displaying them to everyone.

She sneered, "This concubine Shuang you just brought into the family is actually the daughter of the Jian family, who was executed along with her entire family for treason in the previous dynasty. These relics left behind by the Jian family are enough to prove her identity."

The Yin family members were all greatly shocked.

Apart from the elderly couple and Yin Bohong, no one else in the Yin family knew Jian Qingshuang's identity. They never expected that Yin Bohong would take the daughter of a disgraced official as a concubine!

This is not an ordinary crime; it is treason, the most serious kind!

Shen Lingxia said slowly, "If I take these pieces of evidence to the Ministry of Justice to report the case now, they can easily verify Aunt Shuang's identity. What do you think the consequences will be then?"

Madam Yin's face turned deathly pale.

The consequence is that Jian Qingshuang will be captured and beheaded, and the Yin family will definitely be implicated!

Shen Lingxia said calmly, "However, if you are willing to let me and Yin Bohong divorce, I will not report you, and Aunt Shuang and the Yin family can both be safe and sound."

"You wicked woman! ...You wicked woman! You did this on purpose!"

Yin Bohong had a front tooth knocked out, causing him to speak with a lisp, but in his rage, he still jumped up and down cursing.

He finally understood why Shen Lingxia had acted so virtuous and tolerant before, even encouraging him to take Jian Qingshuang as a concubine. It turned out she had set up such a big trap, waiting for him here!

Previously, Jian Qingshuang was merely kept as a mistress outside the home, making it easy to sever ties. But today, Jian Qingshuang has entered the Yin family as a concubine, which is now done openly, and it's too late to get rid of her now.

As soon as Shen Lingxia found a bargaining chip to threaten the Yin family, she immediately proposed a divorce!

The Shen family is so cunning and uses such despicable methods!

Yin Bohong said fiercely, "I refuse to divorce you! I'm going to divorce you, you slut! Let's see how you'll ever show your face in public again!"

Shen Lingxia raised an eyebrow.

"It seems that the talented Mr. Yin still has a lot of backbone. Well then, we'll take our leave. You should think about it now. Since you can't be officials anymore, judging from your character, you don't seem like the type to do business or farm. Where do you plan to go begging in the future?"
