Chapter 383 The Wife of the Scholar



Chapter 383 The Wife of the Scholar

"Plus, my husband insisted on not bringing many servants with him when he went to Beijing to take the imperial examination. Instead, he wanted me, his wife, to accompany him personally. I became suspicious. Although he did not bring many people with him on the surface, he secretly brought a lot of capable servants. Sure enough, after returning from the banquet, my husband asked me to accompany him to the outskirts of Beijing. The servants found out that he bought knockout drugs and secretly contacted the broker."

"My husband."

Li bent down and said to Yang Chengyun who was still sitting on the ground: "I want to divorce you. A man like you is not worthy of marrying and having children."

"Divorce? You can't divorce!"

Yang Chengyun was finally awakened by the word "divorce". He jumped up from the ground and wanted to hold his wife's hand, but was blocked by the nanny behind his wife.

"My lady, my lady, listen to me..."

"Snapped!"

A rotten vegetable leaf hit Yang Chengyun on the head, and an angry woman yelled, "What are you talking about! If you don't want to divorce, are you waiting for me to be sold out by you by accident someday?"

"Snapped!"

This time it's a rotten egg.

"What a beast! Such a man must not be allowed to be an official. He can even lay hands on his own wife. If he becomes an official, the people under his jurisdiction will be in trouble."

Just as everyone was cursing Yang Chengyun in anger, a burly figure walked out of the broken door of the inn.

No one knew what this figure was thinking. He did not notice the hustle and bustle outside. As soon as he walked out of the door, he was almost tripped by Yang Chengyun who was lying on the ground.

He took two steps forward to avoid falling, then the figure wiped away his tears and raised his head.

"Hey! Sister Liu, why are you crying?"

Li was feeling upset, but when she saw the familiar figure, she hurried forward to show concern. This was the wife of the top scholar in the imperial examination. She didn't know what had happened and started crying.

Liu looked at Li with red eyes, obviously she had been crying. Although Liu was strong, she was obviously not a person with ideas. Seeing Li asking questions, she quickly said, "Sister Li, can you lend me some money? My husband divorced me and kicked me out. I want to borrow some money from you and then go back to my hometown to find my father."

He murmured, "I can't die. If I die, no one will be filial to my father. I want to go back to my hometown to honor my father."

"Your husband, the third place winner in the imperial examination, wants to divorce you!" Li did not hear clearly what Liu said later, but she heard the previous part clearly. She asked in disbelief what happened today, why she wanted to divorce her husband and why the third place winner wanted to divorce her.

Do you have to be so cunning?

Seeing the paper in Liu's hand, Li snatched it away and started reading it.

The people who were watching the excitement,

The third place winner wants to divorce his wife!

It’s so lively today.

The light emanating from each eye almost lit up the sky.

And the official who knew the situation: “???”

That's it! Didn't I tell this Liu about the situation this morning?

Her reaction was to cry pitifully.

Are those thick arms and waist for nothing? Beat her up, make a scene. The third place winner is only half as strong as her, and he is also a weak scholar. He will only lose if he fights you. If a scene starts, your majesty will definitely decide for him.

On the other side, Li had already screamed, "The third place winner divorced you because you couldn't have any children!"

"Wuwuwu..." Liu nodded while crying, tears streaming down her face. Such a grown-up person, standing in front of Li feeling aggrieved.

Li couldn't help but cover her head. She knew that the wife of the top scholar had a gentle temper, but gentleness was not what was needed at this moment.

A woman who is divorced by her husband for not having any children will not have a good ending.

No! We can’t let Liu be divorced like this. Li grabbed Liu’s hand and said in a serious tone: “Sister Liu…”

"Madam! Help!"

Yang Chengyun, whose face was bruised and swollen after being beaten by the onlookers, rushed out at this time.

Li kicked Yang Chengyun with disgust and kicked him aside.

She continued to tell Liu: "The third place winner cannot divorce you, because although there are seven grounds for divorce, there are still three grounds for divorce. There are three situations in which a husband cannot divorce his wife."

"Married but not married, this means that there is no one in your natal family, so your husband cannot divorce you. Second, he cannot divorce you easily because you have mourned for your parents-in-law for three years. Also, you were poor before and have become rich later. When your husband married you, he was just a scholar, but now he is a Jinshi, so he cannot divorce you even more."

Liu's red eyes lit up: "Really? I have been mourning for my father-in-law and mother-in-law for three years, so can I take back this divorce letter?"

Li said with a headache: "I can take it back, but if you can't give birth, you need to find a concubine for your husband."

Liu was stunned for a moment: "Take a concubine, then take a concubine, that's better than divorcing me."

Xu Jinyu's head was about to smoke from watching this.

How come the wife of this scholar who has won the imperial examination is such a piece of cotton? Unlike Mrs. Li just now, she can handle her husband without her being reminded.

This scene made Xu Jinyu anxious. She wanted to lie down next to Liu's ear and yell,

[What do you mean you can’t have a baby? You haven’t even slept together, how can you have a baby?]

[How shameless! He didn't even consummate the marriage, but he asked his wife to give birth to a child. How? He is amazing. He is not a human, but he can reproduce asexually! ]

"Pfft!"

Someone in the crowd couldn't help laughing.

Mr. Xu's angle of insulting people is always so tricky.

Disgust rose in the eyes of the Minister of Rites. This third place winner was even more shameless than he thought. He had never consummated his marriage with his wife, but divorced her on the grounds that she was infertile.

After thinking about it, the Minister of Rites called his servant over and gave him a few instructions.

After a while, the servant appeared beside Li and spoke a few words to her in a low voice.

[Wuhu! The Minister of Rites hit someone. You can enjoy the fun from now on. The truth has been told to this Li. I want to see how this Li will deal with the third place winner. Li is now dissatisfied with any man, especially the man who wants to divorce his wife.]

Xu Jinyu's cheers made the eyes of all the officials who heard her voice light up.

The Minister of Rites said it well, we don’t want to see such a depressing plot, we want to see a refreshing plot, we want to see Liu slap the top scholar away with one slap.

Several officials even secretly gave the Minister of Rites a thumbs up.

The Minister of Rites puffed out his chest with pride. A person with bad character like Du Lu certainly could not be an official.

Li nodded slightly to the servant, then asked Liu gently,

"Sister Liu, where is Du Tanhua? Find him and I'll tell him not to divorce you."

Liu's eyes lit up. It was better that someone helped her speak. However, when she thought of her husband, her eyes dimmed again.

"My husband gave me the divorce letter this morning and told me to leave the capital within three days."

Li's eyes narrowed, and the cold light in them frightened people: "That is to say, your husband didn't give you a penny and kicked you out. Doesn't this mean he wants you to die?"

"No...no...my husband just didn't want to see me. He didn't have the heart to divorce me. He felt sad seeing me, so he left. As for not giving me money, it must be because he was too sad and forgot about it for a moment." Liu defended her husband with difficulty.

[Is Liu's body so big made? I punched him again and again, but there was no reaction at all. I was so anxious.]

Xu Jinyu clenched his fists in anger.

Princess Changle almost laughed when she saw her like this: "Don't worry, even if that Li can't deal with that third place winner, don't I still have you? I'll help that Liu deal with it. Unfaithful men deserve to die the most!"

Princess Changle's words were chilling.

Xu Jinyu and Wuyang were so scared that they shrank their necks together. Ever since her husband was executed, Princess Changle has been particularly displeased with men, and this Li Tanhua happened to be one of them.

Minister of Rites: Don't worry, this Li is no pushover. Just wait for Li to deal with Du Lu.

"Brothers and sisters around here, if anyone can find me the third place winner, I will give you ten taels of silver as a reward."

Li in the center of the crowd raised his voice.
