Chapter 441 - 441 Sc.u.mbag Father Causing Trouble (2)


441 Sc.u.mbag Father Causing Trouble (2)


The censors’ saliva flew everywhere as they spoke. Fortunately, Shen Pingxiu did not go to court today. Otherwise, he would have been criticized by so many people and had to kill himself to apologize.


The emperor was also furious. He sent someone to the Shen residence to pa.s.s on his oral order on the spot. He fined Shen Pingxiu’s salary for a year and suspended him from work to reflect on his actions.


This was on account that he was Consort Jing’s biological father. He could be considered a relative. If it were anyone else, he would have stripped this person of his official position.


Even so, he still felt that this was not enough to vent his anger. He scolded Lord Jing for some trivial matters.

!!

Lord Jing’s face was still dark when the court session ended.


Minister Chen was also as dark-faced as him. His son-in-law was raising a mistress, and his daughter was shameless. How could he be any better off? Everyone knew that Shen Pingxiu had been backed by him.


Everyone could not help but look at the two of them with sympathy. They had clearly done nothing, but they had lost some dignity because of an unreliable relative. Wasn’t it unfair?


Apart from these two people who were directly related to Shen Pingxiu, there was another person in the imperial court who also married Shen Pinxiu’s daughter, Song Jingchen.


However, he still looked like it had nothing to do with him. Thinking about it, wasn’t he the one who brought Shen Pingxiu around the city with him?


He was clearly present when the Jingzhao Residence received the report. If he had been careful, Song Jingchen could have suppressed it at that time, and everyone wouldn’t have known about it.


If he was only taking care of his mistress, the emperor would at most punish him with a few months of salary.


Now that things had gotten out of hand, it was hard not to suspect that he didn’t do it on purpose.


Although it was a suspension, it still depended on the emperor’s mood. If the emperor forgot about this person, Shen Pingxiu’s position as an official would come to an end.


“Lord Song, what good will this do you?” As soon as they left the palace, Shangguan Pu stopped Song Jingchen. The other officials avoided him.


Song Jingchen frowned and said in confusion, “Lord Jing means that I shouldn’t have brought him back?”


Then, he said with a disapproving expression, “Although it’s not a glorious thing to raise a mistress, we can’t take someone’s life because of this. After all, he’s my father-in-law.”


Shangguan Pu was speechless.


After not seeing him for two years, how did Song Jingchen learn to pretend to be stupid? Was that what he meant?


Thinking of how his many years of planning had almost been ruined by this person, Shangguan Pu sneered and said, “No matter what, we’re brothers-in-law now. I advise Lord Song to see the situation clearly. The Song family doesn’t have any more chances. I believe Lord Song doesn’t want what happened two years ago to repeat itself, right?”


In Shangguan Pu’s opinion, Shen Pingxiu wasn’t worthy of Song Jingchen’s vengeance. The person he wanted to deal with was Shangguan Pu.


He didn’t expect Song Jingchen to really target Shen Pingxiu.


Song Jingchen lowered his eyes and cupped his hands. “Thank you for your advice, Your Highness. I’ll remember it.”


His att.i.tude made Shangguan Pu feel like he had punched cotton. He felt even more depressed. He looked at Song Jingchen for a long time and snorted before leaving.


Song Jingchen frowned and looked at Shangguan Pu’s back thoughtfully.


In the Shen residence.


After sending away the eunuch who had come to deliver the verbal order, Shen Pingxiu, who was kneeling at the front with a swollen face, fainted.


Madam Chen looked at him with hatred in her eyes.


Without her saying anything, no one dared to move. It was only when Shen Wenbo reminded her that she gritted her teeth and instructed the servant to carry him back to his room, but she did not get anyone to look for a doctor.


Shen Wenbo could not stand it anymore and could only instruct his subordinates to find a doctor.


Because of this incident at home, he did not go on duty at the Hanlin Academy today.


He was a little glad now. Otherwise, Shen Wenbo did not dare to imagine what his colleagues would think of him. However, he could not hide forever. He had to think of a way to resolve this matter from the root.


Thinking of the mother and son locked up in the woodshed by Madam Chen, his gaze darkened.


His appearance was more vicious than Madam Chen’s. Now that he looked like this, people felt a chill run down their spines.


In the reception pavilion, Madam Chen waved away the servants and tightened her grip on her handkerchief. “Wenbo, what do you think we should do about this?”


Shen Wenbo did not answer. Instead, he asked, “Mother, what are you going to do with that mother and son?”


His voice was cold. One of them was clearly his younger brother with the same bloodline as him, but he sounded no different from a Tom, d.i.c.k, or Harry.
