Rebirth of the Malicious Empress of Military Lineage

Chapter 65: No Loss

Shen Gui did not even removed his official uniform and strode into the hall. It seemed that he had been given notice of Shen Qing's news and came over in a rush.

When Ren Wan Yun saw him, she immediately cried more miserably, "Master... Qing-er..."

Ren Wan Yun's and Shen Gui's relationship was not necessarily deep, else Shen Gui would not have filled the courtyards with concubines. In spite of that, Shen Gui was still respectful to Ren Wan Yun, not because of anything else but because Ren Wan Yun was able to manage the entire Shen residence and had good relationships with Shen Gui's colleagues' Furens. As his other half, Shen Gui was rather satisfied with Ren Wan Yun so he gave her face and would not fall in comparison.

"Shen Miao!" Shen Gui turned his head and looked at the young female in the hall. He knew the reason why Ren Wan Yun brought the three Di daughters to the Wo Long Temple. But bringing the three Di daughters of the Shen residence out, was only to prevent others from talking. Who knew that the one that would be in trouble was his daughter Shen Qing. The servant who went and transmitted the news secretly told him that everything was Shen Miao's doing. Even though he felt that it was unfathomable, but one would need to take out the anger on someone. Since it was not possible to vent on the Second household, then all the crimes and responsibilities were pushed onto the First household.

"You harmed your sisters with such evil means and since Eldest Brother is not here today, I will teach you well on behalf of Eldest Brother!" After he said that he loudly shouted, "Bring the rod!"

Bring the rod? Chen Rou Qiu and Shen Wan looked at one another. Ever since Chen Rou Qiu entered the Shen family, she had never seen this Shen family's rod. From what Shen Wan said, the rod was usually used on Yiniangs that committed some wrongdoings and have never been used on the descendants of the Shen residence.

Moreover the Shen family was of a military lineage and the rod would naturally be unusual. The servant quickly took out a long wooden box over as Shen Yue looked over curiously. When that long wooden box was open and the thing inside was taken out in front of everyone, she could not help but to suck down a mouthful of cold air.

It was a long whip and no one was sure what the whip was soaked in for so many years that it looked black and shiny. Moreover it was as thick and coarse as a fully grown man's wrist. With one look, one would know how strong and powerful it was. If one was to be beaten by that whip, most likely half one's life would be gone. If one's was to use more strength then it would be easy for a life to be snuffed out.

"Exactly." Old Shen Furen put back on an arrogant air. Seeing that her son had returned, her back was even more straightened. She after all treated Shen Qing with some sincerity, thus when she saw her granddaughter fallen to a mishap, she was angry in her heart. Since Shen Gui had spoken, she naturally would push the boat with the current.
"Fifth Girl had made mistakes and you as a younger brother will naturally teach her on behalf of one's Eldest Brother. Our Shen family's rules are in order and those who committed a wrong will be given the rod. Fifth Girl, you should rejoice for your Second Shu's good heart else it would not be as simple as just bringing the rod out. If the family elders in the ancestral hall investigate, you will be expelled from the Shen family." Saying this, her eyes suddenly moved. Yes. If Shen Miao was expelled from the Shen family, would not that be good?

Seeing Old Shen Furen's expression, Chen Rou Qiu secretly scolded her a fool. If Shen Miao was expelled from the Shen residence then with Shen Xin's personality, he would definitely leave together with the entire First household. Even though they did not like seeing the First household well, there were many matters that required the name of the First household. This old woman really think it was that simple. Her thoughts truly originated from a songstress that could not be seen in public.
