The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Chapter 1518 Ge Dongqing is stubborn

Lu Siniang continued to pressure them: "If you don't want to be implicated, then read the dirty love poem you know to the emperor, read it to Ge Dongqing, and read it to everyone."

No one dared to speak. Lu Siniang happened to stop in front of Song Ruhong. She pointed at the gray-haired third-rank official and said, "I heard that Lord Song is the most upright. Have you heard about the scandal in my Ge Mansion yesterday?"

Song Ruhong, who had shaken his head at first, immediately nodded repeatedly. The emperor was here, and he didn't dare to deceive him. "I know a little bit, just a little bit!"

"Have you ever heard of that filthy love poem?"

"I heard a little bit."

"Then please, Lord Song, tell everyone, let us all hear how licentious and frivolous this great beggar, this powerful figure in the court, lives his private life."

Song Ruhong was so shocked by Lu Siniang's words that his scalp tightened and his eardrums pounded. He didn't want this anger to spread to him. He bowed to Ge Dongqing and said respectfully, "Master Ge, I'm sorry."

Then Song Ruhong recited it cautiously, "Life is but a hundred years, and I am always afraid of parting with you. We parted at three o'clock in the morning, and longing makes me cry. The night winds and rains come, and you are hard to find on my bed. The lonely pillow is desolate, and the night is long and lingering. Thinking of you carefully, I am happy and happy, and I am with you every night. When Ge Lang divorced his wife, I will marry you. I will give you a wedding dress worth a thousand gold, a dowry and a hundred treasures. Everything is ready, and I am waiting for your will. I... know only this."

Wan Lianxing was furious. "Ge Dongqing, after what happened last time, I thought you had repented, but I didn't expect you to go even further. You even moved to Jiaomanlou to live with Fuliu? Can't the dignified Ge Mansion accommodate you? Who gave you two the audacity to ask me to decree your marriage? How can I grant your wish, even with my words?"

Ge Dongqing complained bitterly. He still wanted to seek Wan Lianxing's protection at this time. "Brother, it's unfair. I am innocent."

Wan Lianxing was angry just looking at him. How could this man be so disappointing? "Your poems are well-known to everyone, and you are still trying to make excuses."

"Brother, I'm being wronged! The poem Lord Song read was not written by me, but by Fu Liu. She wrote it and embroidered it on a handkerchief and gave it to me. I'm being wronged. If you don't believe me, you can take a look. It's clearly signed. How dare I ask for your permission to marry you?"

Wan Lianxing waved his hand and said, "You are a wise man, but I won't look at that thing. I'm afraid it will pollute my eyes."

Wan Lianxing felt uncomfortable. How could he look at the handkerchief embroidered by a brothel girl?

Suiying didn't mind the trouble. He ran over, snatched the handkerchief from Ge Dongqing's hand, and pointed out the signature to the emperor. "Your Majesty, look, there is irrefutable evidence. Lord Ge has been wronged. This was written by Fu Liu."

Wan Lianxing rolled his eyes at Suiying. He wasn't a dragon, so how could he not tell who wrote it? He looked at Lu Si Niang, "Si Niang, you want to divorce your husband just because of a handkerchief? Isn't that too abrupt?"

"Your Majesty, it was Ge Dongqing who disliked me first. He called me a shrew and a shrew. He swore to Fu Liu that he would divorce me and marry her. I, Lu Si Niang, am not someone who doesn't know what's good for me. I am leaving the Ge Mansion of my own free will."

"Dong Qing, you are a gentleman, how can you curse Lu Si Niang like that? How can such words come out of your mouth?"

Ge Dongqing argued, "I didn't."

"You're still quibbling." Lu Siniang pulled out another handkerchief from her pocket and presented it to the emperor with both hands. Suiying chuckled and took the handkerchief away, intending to show it to Wan Lianxing. Wan Lianxing was furious. He hadn't even dealt with one handkerchief yet, and now another one was produced. He shouted, "Read it!"

"Oh, all right." Suiying imitated Song Ruhong and bowed to Ge Dongqing, saying, "Master Ge, I'm sorry." Then he cleared his throat and, holding his handkerchief, recited with emotion: "There is an old flower in the family, old and ugly, but still fierce and vivacious. My lady, just wait patiently, and sooner or later I will marry you into the Ge family."

Wan Lianxing pinched his brow for a moment, and finally asked Ge Dongqing: "Do you have anything else to say?"

"Ah, big brother, please help me. This is not my original intention. It was just a complaint I made when I was drunk that day. I didn't expect Fu Liu to embroider it on the handkerchief. I am wronged."

Complaints? Most of the complaints were sincere. One was a young woman, and the other was three years older than Ge Dongqing. Compared with Fu Liu, Lu Siniang, who was in her forties, was a thing of the past. No matter how Ge Dongqing explained, it was useless. Wan Lianxing had already made up his mind. Who would embroider such humiliating words on a handkerchief to enjoy without ulterior motives?

Wan Lianxing's eyes were slightly stern, with authority but no anger, and helplessness in his eyes. "Dongqing, Si Niang is your first wife. She is strong-willed and well-educated. How could you treat her like a brothel girl? If you want to take a concubine, you can discuss it with Si Niang. Why divorce her? Are the words on those two handkerchiefs good things? They say that family disgrace should not be aired in public. How can you nail these things on the door of your own house? Where do you and Fu Liu want to put Si Niang? Si Niang is the manager of the weaving workshop appointed by me. She is my subject. I value her very much. How could you bully her like this? Did you consider me before bullying her?"

"Brother, I am truly wronged. I did not nail that handkerchief to the door. I would never do such a thing."

Wan Lianxing waved the fan in his hand, signaling him to stop. "Don't explain, Dongqing. So many people are watching. Don't you feel ashamed? Even I, your eldest brother, am embarrassed for you. Why did this handkerchief appear at your door? Who else could it be besides you and Fu Liu? It couldn't be Si Niang. You used this method to force Si Niang away. This method is too despicable. For the sake of long-term love, you have no regard for your dignity, but Si Niang still needs dignity. Where do you plan to put her?"

"Brother, it's not Fu Liu. I can testify to that."

"You, you, what can I say? You've been so bewitched by a woman named Fu Liu that you can't tell right from wrong. Even after all this, you're still speaking for her?"

If it weren't for maintaining his image as a benevolent monarch, Wan Lianxing would have swung the fan in his hand to hit Ge Dongqing in frustration. Ge Dongqing's foolish mind was full of Fu Liu, and even at this time he still abandoned his wife to protect Fu Liu. Wan Lianxing woke him up with the truth.

At this time, Wan Lianxing already understood why Lu Siniang wanted to whip Ge Dongqing with a horsewhip. This man was a bastard and deserved a beating. Seeing his stubborn look, he wanted to snatch the whip from Lu Siniang's hand and whip him.

"This humble brother has been with Fu Liu these past two days. She has never left Jiao Man Lou."

"You still have the nerve to say that? Aren't you going home?" Wan Lianxing really wanted to hit him. Fortunately, Ge Dongqing still claimed that he was a gentleman and could say such words.
