Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 539

"General Shen is a meritorious official, let's not bring up the past." The Empress Dowager glared at Yun Xiyue with displeasure, feeling that she was a scourge.

If the emperor were to bear any bad reputation.

She won't let her off the hook.

Yun Xiaohan could no longer bear it and stood up. "What has been done in the past can never be erased. No matter how capable General Shen is, it cannot change the fact that he is a bad person."

"The Great Xia is a country of etiquette, integrity, filial piety, trustworthiness, and civilization. The Emperor's criteria for employing people is to first look at a person's character and then at their abilities."

"General Shen, and even the Shen family's character, their attitude towards life and work, I believe everyone here has heard of and witnessed. He has a history of betrayal and disrespect for his first and second wives, showing no love or care whatsoever. His character is clearly questionable."

"Even if such a person is very capable, when faced with pressure from the enemy, he will choose to betray his country out of fear of death."

"As soldiers, the most important thing is to have a firm belief and unwavering loyalty. We must love our families before we can love our countries. We must be loyal to our families before we can be loyal to our countries."

"If he can't even do the most basic things like loving his family and wife, how can he be loyal to the emperor and love his country?"

Everyone's expressions changed.

General Xiao immediately exclaimed, "Haha, well said!"

"The most important quality of a soldier is good character; he must never betray his duty."

Many generals agree with Yun Xiaohan.

"Indeed, General Yun is absolutely right."

"Throughout history, the patriotic heroes of the past were all people who loved their country and their families, and whose words and deeds were consistent with their country."

Shen Yue is indeed exceptionally capable, but his past actions cannot be erased.

He betrayed Yun Xiyue first.

Then he was so ruthless to Lin Bao'er, plotting to kill her. Who would dare to associate with someone like that?

Yun Xiaohan's words left the Empress Dowager speechless.

If she supports Shen Yue, it would be tantamount to condoning a man's betrayal of his wife and country.

Shen Yue's face was ugly. He knelt on the ground and dared not say a word. From the moment he betrayed Yun Xiyue, kept a mistress outside, and secretly had a child, he was destined to be a person of immoral character.

After being stripped of his title, only those who needed to use him, such as Prince Rui, dared to associate with him; everyone else kept their distance.

He returned victorious, but no one cheered for him. What did his illustrious military achievements matter? He was only fighting for himself.

When it comes to loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, does he truly possess it? Unless he brings Lin Bao'er back to confront them and explains the theft of the weapon blueprints, which he cannot do.

Even if there is insufficient evidence now and the emperor cannot do anything to him, he is already suspicious, so he has no good future.

Murong Yu smiled and praised Yun Xiaohan, "General Yun is excellent and deserves the rank of Second Class Merit."

In the end, the second-class merit award was given to Yun Xiaohan.

He had not been on the battlefield for long, and although he had some achievements, they were far from comparable to those of others.

Yun Xiaohan didn't care about any merit; he just couldn't stand seeing others bully his sister.

It seems he made the right decision to join the army.

He wants to climb to the highest point in the future so that he can become his sister's greatest support.

He is far from being good enough.

Shen Yue was indignant, but those who stood up for him dared not say anything more. Even if they felt it was unfair to Shen Yue, there was nothing they could do.

Shen Yue has too many stains on his record.

If he hadn't been exceptionally capable, he wouldn't have been able to stand on the throne.

The emperor also intended to suppress it.

Murong Chen gestured for him not to act impulsively.

In the end, he received a third-class merit award, but lost more than half of his money. He could only endure it. Shen Yue's face was ashen as he silently returned to his seat.

Next up is the dance performance.

Looking at the woman on the stage.

Murong Yu frowned. "Who is this person?"

Yun Xiyue didn't know either, because the person she arranged wasn't her.
