He could not lose everything in the Cheng family.
He put down his son and said to Cheng Sang, “Madam, I was wrong! I just… I just miss Weiwei too much. Cheng Lian can’t give birth anymore, so I wanted another child…
Cheng Sang said angrily, “Don’t mention Weiwei to me! You’re not worthy!”
She didn’t want to listen to Xie Yunhe’s excuses anymore. She found it annoying and disgusting.
She threw a divorce letter in front of Xie Yunhe.
From today onwards, she had nothing to do with Xie Yunhe.
Then, she looked at Cheng Lian. “Don’t think that I won’t punish you just because you’re crying and pretending to be pitiful here.”
Cheng Lian complained aggrievedly, “Sister, I’m already so pitiful. What else do you want?”
Cheng Sang looked at her indifferently. “What has your sorry state got to do with me?”
Cheng Lian choked.
Cheng Sang looked at Third Uncle and said gently, “Third Uncle.”
Third Uncle took out a book from the wooden box.
Everyone took a closer look and was shocked.
Family tree?
Third Uncle actually brought the genealogy record from the ancestral hall?
The genealogy record was an important treasure of the Cheng family and was guarded by special people. Ordinary people were not qualified to touch it. Third Uncle personally presented the genealogy to Cheng Sang. “Family Head.”
Cheng Sang opened the family tree and flipped to Cheng Lian’s page.
Su Xiaoxiao obediently took a brush.
Cheng Sang crossed out Cheng Lian’s name.
Cheng Lian’s expression changed. “Sister! You can’t treat me like this! I’m your biological sister!”
Cheng Sang said casually, “Do you remember that you’re my sister now?”
Mei Ji said, “That’s right. Why didn’t you think about it when you climbed into your brother-in-law’s bed? Why didn’t you think about it when you harmed your niece? Why didn’t you think about it when you occupied your sister’s a.s.sets? So you took all the benefits and let others suffer? Pfft! Shameless!”
Mei Ji’s words not only scolded Cheng Lian but also those who had colluded with Cheng Lian during Cheng Sang’s madness.
Many elders of the clan looked embarra.s.sed and did not dare to say a word.
Cheng Lian approached on her knees and grabbed Cheng Sang’s clothes. She cried, “Sister, I was wrong. I know my mistake! Forgive me this once. I won’t dare to do it again!”
Cheng Sang’s expression did not waver.
She leaned back in her chair and took out a dagger from her wide sleeve and threw it to Cheng Lian.
Cheng Lian looked at the dagger that had fallen on her skirt and was stunned. She looked up at Cheng Sang in fear. “Sister, what are you doing?
Cheng Sang looked down at her. “This is Sister’s last mercy to you.”
Cheng Lian threw the dagger to the ground as if she had thrown away a hot potato.
“I don’t want to! I don’t want to commit suicide! I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die!”
Cheng Sang brushed the place on his shirt that she had touched. “Uncle Quan.”
Uncle Quan walked forward. “Master.”
Cheng Sang said, “Take her to see the officials.”
Uncle Quan immediately said, “Yes!”
He gestured outside and two servants waiting at the door rushed in, each holding Cheng Lian’s arm.
Cheng Lian instantly panicked. “Sister, what are you doing?”
Cheng Sang looked at her coldly. “A life for a life. What do you think I want to
“No… Sister, no…”
Cheng Lian burst into tears.
Amidst her struggle, her pearl hairpin fell off and her bun fell apart. As proud and luxurious as she was when she entered, she was as miserable now.
However, no one dared to plead for her.
Cheng Sang was determined to reorganize the Cheng family this time. Someone had to bear the anger of many years.
If not Cheng Lian, it would be them.
Regarding this, they had indeed wronged Cheng Sang.
Cheng Sang was not so petty.
She did not punish Cheng Lian to vent her anger, but Cheng Lian deserved it. It was not that the law did not punish them, but that most of them had not touched her bottom line for the time being.
However, she would settle everything that needed to be settled.
Cheng Lian struggled desperately on the ground. Seeing that begging for mercy was fruitless, she simply said fiercely, “You can’t treat me like this! I’m also the
daughter of the Cheng family…’
Cheng Sang raised her hand.
The two servants stopped dragging Cheng Lian out.
Cheng Lian was delighted. She thought that Cheng Sang would not dare to touch her after all.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Sang said, “Speaking of the daughter of the Cheng family, is Cheng Qingxue still in the residence?”
Uncle Quan said, “Master, that’s right.”
Cheng Sang said without thinking, “Chase them out together.”
Uncle Quan immediately said, “Yes!”
Cheng Lian looked at Cheng Sang in disbelief. “Sister, what did Qingxue do wrong? Why are you treating her like this? Don’t implicate the child in the grudge between us!”
Cheng Sang looked at her coldly. “Then what did my Weiwei do wrong?!”
Cheng Lian choked.
Su Xiaoxiao gave the servants a look.
Upon receiving the order, the servants pulled Cheng Lian across the threshold of the flower hall.
Cheng Lian shouted angrily, “How n.o.ble can you be? Didn’t you raise one actor after another in the residence?
Seeing that she was always screaming crazily, the servant woman took a dirty cloth and gagged her.
Xie Yunhe had an idea. He looked at Cheng Sang and said righteously, “Madam, were you poisoned by that actor? That’s why you did such an abnormal thing?”
He had let Cheng Sang down, but he was Weiwei’s biological father after all. He had a proper status.
No matter how much he pocketed, he would leave most of it to Weiwei’s daughter in the future.
It was different for that actor.
Cheng Sang was already unable to give birth at her age. If that actor gained power, wouldn’t she be handing over the entire Cheng family business to others?
Indeed, when they heard that Cheng Sang had been bewitched by an actor, the elders looked at Cheng Sang in surprise.
It would indeed be inappropriate if divorcing her husband was to welcome an actor.
“Did I come at the wrong time?”
Zongzheng Wei’s voice suddenly sounded at the door.
When Xie Yunhe saw him, his expression turned cold. “It’s this actor! He bewitched the Family Head time and time again and made him spend money on him! I think he has ulterior motives! It wasn’t easy for His Majesty to return the Cheng family’s mine. Madam, don’t let it be scammed by others again!” Cheng Sang looked at Xie Yunhe coldly.
Zongzheng Wei smiled faintly and raised his hand to take off the mask on his face.
Thump.
Third Uncle knelt down.
Sixth Uncle took a look and fell to his knees from the chair in fear.
When Zongzheng Wei returned the mine, he went to the clan and saw these granduncles.
Xie Yunhe froze on the spot.
This person was…
“Sixth Uncle, who is he?” a clansman asked. Sixth Uncle replied with cold sweat, “His, His Majesty!”
All the clansmen knelt on the ground.
Cheng Sang also stood up and brought Su Xiaoxiao to bow to Zongzheng Wei.
Zongzheng Wei took a few steps forward to support her. “Family Head Cheng, there’s no need to be so polite.”
The elders even had the urge to kill Xie Yunhe.
What actor was he?
This was the King of the Southern Wilderness!
Anyone could come for the Cheng family’s a.s.sets, but not His Majesty.
The entire Southern Wilderness was his, let alone the Cheng family.
Uncle Quan said solemnly to Xie Yunhe, “Take the divorce letter. You’ve been divorced by the Family Head!”
It was especially loud, as if it was deliberately said for Zongzheng Wei to hear.
Cheng Sang glanced at Uncle Quan.
Zongzheng Wei smiled.
After coming out of the reception hall, the elders were so frightened that they hurriedly returned to clear the accounts. They spat out what they should spit out. The Family Head had His Majesty backing her up, so they did not dare to fool the Family Head anymore!
Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “Grandmother, chat with His Majesty first. Mei Ji and I will go back.”
Mei Ji waved her hand.
After the two children left, only Cheng Sang and Zongzheng Wei were left under the moonlight.
Cheng Sang was now lucid and remembered everything that had happened. However, at her age, she would not be as awkvvard and shy as a young lady.
She said calmly, “Let’s sit in the garden.”
The two of them came to the stone bench in the garden and sat down.
Uncle Quan quickly served a pot of warm water and a plate of snacks before retreating.
Cheng Sang hesitated.
However, even the maidservants had run far away.
Zongzheng Wei smiled and poured Cheng Sang a gla.s.s of warm water. “Are you recovering well?”
Cheng Sang adhered to etiquette and said, “Everything is fine.”
After a pause, she asked, “Is Your Majesty used to returning to the palace?”
Zongzheng Wei smiled and said, “To be honest, I’m not used to it. It’s too bright during the day.”
Cheng Sang picked up his teacup. “I’ve troubled Your Majesty today.”
Zongzheng Hui said helplessly, “It’s fine if it’s troublesome. It’s just that everyone will know in the future… that I’m the man you raised.”
“Ahem!”
Cheng Sang choked..
