My beloved wife is reborn, let's get divorced, Mr. Prime Minister

Xie had a look of disdain on her face and spoke without restraint.

"Shut up!" Pei Fan almost fainted after hearing that.

"This matter is a taboo in the royal family. You ignorant woman, are you making our Duke's Mansion die a long death?"

Xie knew she had said something wrong, but she refused to admit it. "I just feel that if the Duke had gone to talk to him, this marriage might not be impossible. Didn't the Duke of Zhenguo also ask for an imperial decree for his daughter? Why can't it be done with the Duke?"

Pei Fan felt that Xie had become possessed by a demon. If he stayed any longer, he might meet the King of Hell soon.

"Hopeless!" Pei Fan threw his sleeves loudly, obviously very angry.

He suddenly opened the door and shouted to the servant outside, "Take the fourth young lady to the ancestral hall and ask her to reflect on herself. Do not come out without my order."

"mother!"

Qin Huairu said while crying.

"No room for negotiation!" Pei Fan was obviously very angry. As soon as he finished speaking, two maids came forward and pulled Pei Huairu away.

Pei Fan was furious. Xie did not dare to say anything more, but told the servants who knew about this matter to spread it strictly, and anyone who violated this order would be severely punished.

The next day, when the first and second wives went to the upper house to pay their respects, they learned that something serious had happened in the mansion. However, seeing that Mrs. Xie's face looked very bad, they did not ask about it in order to avoid offending Mrs. Xie.

Mrs. Xie was not feeling well. Without saying a few words, she sent the two of them back and told them not to come to pay their respects for the next two days. It was rare that Mrs. Xie didn't bother them, so Wang Zhirou and Shen Tanxiang were still a little uncomfortable. Wang Zhirou was in charge of the household affairs, so she just paid her respects and left. The only one left to serve was Second Madam Shen Tanxiang. Shen Tanxiang was very happy that she didn't have to stay to serve, but she was even more curious about what happened yesterday. They just heard that the Third House had an argument with the Madam when they came back from the palace yesterday, and it was a big argument, but they were stopped by the Lord.

After leaving Ninghe Hall, Wang Zhirou and Shen Tanxiang looked at each other, each with their own little calculations in mind. The third house had a rift with the wife. Even if the third master held an important position in the court, the wife would not give the power of housekeeper back to the third house Song Qingcheng for a while without her approval. Thinking of this, Wang Zhirou felt less anxious. Thinking of the benefits involved, she was really reluctant to give it up.

They are all women living in the back house, how could they not know each other's little thoughts.

"Congratulations to my sister-in-law too," Shen Tanxiang said with a smile.

Wang Zhirou seemed confused, "Why would my second brother's wife say that?"

"It is safe for the eldest sister-in-law to take charge of the household affairs."

"I am just helping my mother-in-law. She still has to make the decisions on some matters. Besides, when my third sister-in-law is familiar with the place, I will hand over the inner house of the Duke's Mansion to her."

Wang Zhirou is quick to accept advice and speaks flawlessly, making it impossible to find fault with her.

Shen Tanxiang had a plan in mind. She wanted to flatter the eldest wife, Wang Zhirou, so that she would be too proud of herself and make some mistakes. It was not certain whether the power of household affairs would fall into the hands of her, the second wife. However, who knew that the first wife was so cautious that no one could find fault with her.

But the power of the household manager is a piece of fat meat, who wouldn’t want to have a piece of it?

Seeing that Wang Zhirou didn't agree with her, she naturally felt unhappy, wondering why the first wife got all the good things, but she didn't show it on her face. She could only laugh dryly and said, "Sister-in-law is very thoughtful."

The two parted ways at the hanging flower gate of Ninghe Hall.

The two of them walked away. Lan Ju, the maidservant beside Shen Tanxiang, said, "This eldest lady is really nice. Although the wife is not happy, according to the rules set by the Duke's Mansion, the housekeeper should be handed over to the third lady on the first day she married into the Duke's Mansion."

Upon hearing this, Shen Tanxiang paused and a plan came to her mind. After pondering for a while, she realized that her third brother's wife had been married into the Duke's Mansion for some time, and the sisters-in-law should visit each other more often.

So he went directly to Jinghe Hall.

Jinghe Hall is the largest and best courtyard in the Duke's Mansion. The courtyard is lush with vegetation and has an independent lotus pond. In early summer, the tender lotus leaves are connected to the sky, and the shy lotus buds are cleanly supported above the water surface, which is very pleasing. Several koi fish are happily swimming in the pond, creating thousands of ripples, adding a bit of wildness. Looking across the water, the pavilions and terraces around the courtyard are reflected in the pond, forming a wonderful picture of strange symmetry, which is breathtaking.

Such a beautiful scene made Shen Tanxiang feel sour in her heart again. This Duke was really partial. He gave all the good things to the eldest and left them for the youngest, but her, the second wife, had nothing to do with it.

Why are they so unlucky!

In fact, this courtyard has nothing to do with the Duke's Mansion.

This Jinghe Hall was given by His Majesty when Pei Huaizhi, the top scholar in the imperial examination, was appointed as the editor of the Imperial Academy. He helped His Majesty to weaken the power of the Jiedushi and consolidate the military power. His Majesty rewarded this house facing the Duke's Mansion. The two houses were connected just for convenience.

However, Shen Tanxiang completely ignored this point and was only upset that she didn't get any advantage.

Song Qingcheng quickly led Shen Tanxiang into the flower hall.

After the maid brought the tea, she secretly looked at Song Qingcheng's expression, but could not see anything unusual. She did not seem to be worried about what happened yesterday. Since the government forbade her to mention the matter again, she would not be stupid enough to ask.

"It's been almost a month since my third brother's wife came to the mansion. I don't think my third master has been too busy with his official duties to take care of the affairs of the back house. If my third brother's wife needs anything, she can talk to me directly."

Song Qingcheng smiled: "Thank you, second sister-in-law."

"Is there any movement?" Shen Tanxiang said ambiguously.

Song Qingcheng lived a new life, so she was no longer a little girl who knew nothing. Naturally, she knew what Shen Tanxiang was talking about, but she could only pretend to be embarrassed and said, "Maybe my constitution is cold, and I need to take more care of it."

"Your sister-in-law is still young, it's the right time for her to have children, so don't worry." Shen Tanxiang thought Song Qingcheng would be upset, so she couldn't help but comfort her, "We are women, isn't that what we do? We carry on the family line and take care of the backyard!"

"But Second Sister-in-law still wants to remind you that you have to keep an eye on the little hooves in the yard and don't let them climb onto Third Brother's bed."

Shen Tanxiang reminded.

Song Qingcheng didn't expect Shen Tanxiang to say this, "Second sister-in-law thinks too much, it won't happen"

"You are still too naive. The Second Master and I have a good relationship. When our love was strong, he even promised that he would only be with me. But after Heng'er was born, the Third Master took several concubines." Even though Shen Tanxiang had already accepted it, she still felt a breath of relief when she spoke of it. She said disdainfully, "There are no lustful men in this world yet. If a man refuses a woman, it only means that he doesn't like this woman. If he doesn't refuse obviously, he probably has some feelings for that woman."!
