She and Geng Liangcheng had no children, but Geng Liangcheng had cousins, and the Geng family was a large clan. As Geng Liangcheng's wife, her family would not be able to hold their heads up high unless these people expelled both of them from the clan.
"Your Highness!" At this moment, two hunchbacked men with gray beards and meticulous clothes came over with the help of the young man. They saluted. One was the head of the Geng family, and the other was the head of Mrs. Geng's family. The head of the Geng family said, "I don't believe the rumors either. Please make a fair judgment, Your Highness. If this is true, our Geng family has such a sinner, we will definitely expel him from the clan!"
Mrs. Geng's clan leader also agreed.
Being expelled from a clan is a very serious matter. One will be crossed out from the family tree, and after death one cannot be buried in the ancestral tomb. There will be no one to worship one, and one is destined to become a wandering ghost after death. Fortunately, Geng Liangcheng had no descendants. If he had, his descendants would have no protection and would be bullied by everyone.
Shen Yueshan had expected all this. If not, why would he have to go to such lengths to deal with Geng Liangcheng? So the evidence they wanted included both human and material evidence.
The witnesses were Sang Yin and the two generals who went to rescue Geng Liangcheng, as well as the countless pairs of eyes who witnessed the confrontation between Geng Liangcheng and Shen Yun'an at the foot of the city wall that day. The physical evidence was an agreement signed between Geng Liangcheng and the Turkic king under the persuasion of Xiao Changtai, in which Geng Liangcheng mistakenly believed that Xiao Juesong would rescue him. This agreement was also found in a letter left behind by Xiao Changtai afterwards.
Shen Yueshan pointed out the people first and told them everything one by one. Mrs. Geng's face turned paler with every word they spoke. Finally, they presented the physical evidence, and the head of the Geng family immediately announced that Geng Liangcheng would be expelled from the family.
Mrs. Geng was heartbroken, but still shook her head, unwilling to believe it.
Sang Yin actually felt a little guilty at first. He knew that Geng Liangcheng had surrendered to His Majesty and was waiting for an opportunity to kill the prince, so he accused him of treason and treason. Morally, he felt a little guilty, but when he saw the agreement signed by Geng Liangcheng and the Turkic king, Sang Yin's uneasiness disappeared.
"Sister-in-law, you are trapped in the inner house and don't know what Geng Liangcheng has done. I will give the order and order you to divorce Geng Liangcheng, and you can go home." Shen Yueshan actually knew that Mrs. Geng, as his wife, might not be unaware of what Geng Liangcheng had done, but he didn't want to kill him.
After divorcing Geng Liangcheng, she had nothing to do with him anymore. Since he personally agreed to the divorce, no one would treat her badly even if she returned to her clan.
“Hahahahahaha…” Madam Geng suddenly laughed crazily, and then she stared at Shen Yueshan with hatred and indignation, “What a hypocritical King of the Northwest, my husband would never betray the Northwest and collude with the Turks, it must be you… you found out that he was dissatisfied with you for being ruthless and selfless and killing my son, so you reported it to the court, and that’s why you went to so much trouble, faking your death and attacking the Turks, just to put him to death!”
Madam Geng said, looking deeply at Sang Yin, Wei Ya and the others: "Just wait, he wants to become the emperor of the northwest, he has no heart for the court, if you choose to be loyal to the emperor, my husband will end up like you all—"
After shouting, Mrs. Geng raised her hand and stabbed the dagger in her hand into her heart.
A moment before her dagger pierced her body, a tiny needle pierced her wrist, causing it to go numb. Only the tip of the dagger was inserted, and the injury was not serious. She fell down helplessly.
