The Lu Guogong Mansion still held a grand banquet, and all the high-ranking nobles in Shengjing, no matter what they thought in their hearts, still went there.
Many families who were closely related to Lu Guogong's government even set up road festivals on the road.
He died in such a disgraceful way, but his death was still glorious.
It attracted many people to watch.
"Tsk, tsk, this life is too good. He died in such an ignominy and still had a big funeral."
"Did you see that the most eye-catching road festival at the front was set up by the royal concubine in the palace, and the one behind is Wan Zhaoyi..."
"Hey, although the prince doesn't like girls, he can't stand up to the women of the Lu family. His aunt and nephew both serve the emperor, so he has a lot of confidence..."
In the midst of the bustle, a team carrying coffins and holding spiritual tablets walked slowly, white flags fluttering in the winter wind.
The huge procession scattered paper money all over the sky as they walked, which looked very spectacular.
The literate people watching the crowd rubbed their eyes and said in disbelief, "How come it's Shen Mingzhu!"
The crowd exploded. Didn't this princess die a few years ago?
It seems that there is a lot of fun today.
The eldest lady was dressed in mourning clothes and personally held Shen Mingzhu's memorial tablet.
Shen Qingran, Shen Mochen, Shen Xingwan and other younger members of the Shen family in Beijing were all dressed in mourning clothes and followed the eldest lady solemnly.
Finally, a complete funeral procession, carrying the coffin, stopped at the gate of Duke Lu Guogong.
Seeing that something was not going well, the housekeeper immediately led someone to stop him and said, "Mrs. Shen, today is the day of the funeral of the Crown Prince. Isn't it appropriate for you to do this?"
The eldest lady said solemnly, "My daughter Shen Mingzhu married into the Lu family with ten miles of red dots, but because she broke up Lu Chuan's good deeds, she was killed by Lu Chuan. Today I am here to seek justice for my daughter."
"Lu Chuan killed his wife and son, he is worse than a pig or a dog!"
The eldest lady immediately started shouting, and the people watching immediately exploded.
Seeing that the situation was out of control, the housekeeper stopped them from entering and hurried to invite Lu Guogong.
Soon Duke Lu Guo walked out with a livid face, and many guests followed him.
Duke Lu Guo said in a bad tone, "Mrs. Shen, what are you making a fuss about? Mingzhu clearly died in childbirth."
Mrs. Shen sneered, "You tell me in autumn."
Qiu Qiu stood up in mourning and loudly recounted how Shen Mingzhu broke up Lu Chuan's scandal, and how Lu Chuan made love to Shen Mingzhu, which ultimately resulted in one body and two lives.
The veins on Lu Guogong's forehead twitched, "Come here, arrest that woman who is talking nonsense!"
"How can I tolerate your impudence at my son's funeral?"
The guards of the Shen family immediately confronted the people from Duke Lu's mansion.
The eldest lady said loudly without any fear, "If Duke Lu doesn't give me a satisfactory explanation today, even if I risk my life, I will carry the coffin, beat drums and complain to the emperor!"
"How dare you!" Lu Guogong said sternly, his eyes almost wanting to skin the eldest lady alive!
"See if I dare!" The eldest lady refused to take a step back.
Shen Mochen said coldly, "I don't believe that the Lu family in Shengjing can cover up the sky with one hand. I will definitely write a letter to the eldest sister in the morning tomorrow to avenge my eldest sister!"
In the angry eyes of the Lu family, Shen Qingran also stood up, "Father asked me to tell the Duke that if the Duke Lu's Palace cannot satisfy us today, Father will personally write a book about the deeds of the Crown Prince and use his whole life to tell the story of the crown prince. This book has spread all over the world!"
Duke Lu Guo staggered a step in anger.
Although the fourth master of the Shen family did not become an official, he was a world-famous Confucian and a role model for scholars. He had taught for many years and was known as a great scholar.
If he writes about this matter, he will put Lu Chuan and the Duke of Lu on the pillar of shame for the rest of their lives, making the Lu family laugh at the eyes of scholars all over the world.
The arrogant Duke Lu was attacked repeatedly and almost gritted his teeth and asked, "What do you want?"
"A beast like Lu Chuan is not worthy of my pearl, so I, the Shen family, specially brought a letter of divorce and asked Duke Lu to sign it. In addition, the Lu family's ancestral tomb is not as lucky as our pearl, so I want to take it away.
Pearl's urn!" The eldest lady demanded word by word.
This can be regarded as trampling Lu Chuan and the Lu family into the ground in public.
After death, it is unheard of to divorce the husband and dig his grave and take him away.
Lu Guogong almost choked in his throat with a mouthful of blood, and he couldn't say anything in agreement.
Mrs. Lu even ignored her manners and cursed, "You black-hearted things, how dare you do this to my Chuan'er..."
Duke Lu Guo said in a deep voice, "Madam, are you sure you want to do this and make things difficult for me, the Lu family?"
This sentence has a strong warning meaning.
Shen Xingwan, who had been silent all this time, looked up at the furious Duke Lu, and said in a cold voice, "When foreign enemies came, the Shen family was not afraid, nor were the ancestors of the Shen family when faced with the ferocious Fusang people. Today, we
Since I dare to come, of course I won’t retreat!”
When Lu Guogong looked at Shen Xingwan, who was neither humble nor arrogant, he almost laughed out of anger and spat out a mouthful of blood, "Okay! Okay! Okay! The children of the Shen family really have a temper! I will remember what happened today!"
After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and went straight through the door.
This was a disguised bow, and as expected, the second master of Duke Lu's mansion soon came out, "That's not the case, but today is the day of Chuan'er's funeral. We don't want to make the matter a big deal. Since the Shen family insists on doing this, then
Just pretend that the two of you are not destined."
The words were nice to say, but everyone present understood that Duke Lu's government lost this game.
The second master accepted the divorce letter from Shen Mochen without changing his expression, and personally took Shen Mochen and the eldest wife to the Lu family's cemetery, asking them to dig the grave and take away Shen Mingzhu's ashes.
Shen Xingwan and Shen Qingran did not follow. They went to the teahouse that Lu Chuan would pass by during his funeral.
The two of them stood at the window and waited.
An hour later, Dongqing came in and reported, "The wife and the young master have taken the young lady's ashes home."
Shen Xingwan nodded.
Two hours later, Qing Hong reported, "The coffin and the funeral procession are coming soon."
Shen Xingwan's eyes turned cold, "Tell everyone to prepare!"
When Lu Chuan's coffin passed by this street, I don't know who made the move first, but people kept throwing rotten eggs at the coffin!
I even remembered the heartbreaking voice, "Lu Chuan, please give my son's life back!"
At first, the people of Duke Lu's government tried to arrest people, but later the common people also joined in the crusade, throwing away everything in their hands, including half-eaten cakes and rotten vegetable leaves.
At the same time, the divorce letter written by Shen Mochen himself spread throughout the streets and alleys, detailing the crimes committed by Lu Chuan in sharp and concise language.
Shen Xingwan looked at all this indifferently, "This is what you owe Mingzhu and Ji Li."
Both of them had tragic lives and deaths that should have been ruined because of Lu Chuan. How could Lu Chuan finish the last journey in a glorious way?
He should be infamy for eternity and be reviled by the world.
Shen Qingran raised her head and looked at the sky, "Sister, rest in peace."
Those young men whose lives were taken away by Lu Chuan, also rest in peace!
