[The Father and Son Face Their Regrets] [Second Marriage] [The Whole Family Regrets It] [Divorce] [Satisfying Face-Slapping] [Clear-Headed, No Forgiveness]
Jiang Yuzheng married into the Duke of Shen's household and spent six years as the heir's wife, devoted to her husband and children. Everyone praised her as a virtuous and capable wife.
On the night she went into labor with her second child, her life hung by a thread. Yet the heir and their two children demanded that she hand over her life-saving medicine to Ye Xiangxiang, a woman who had transmigrated.
Seeing her usually aloof husband kneel and beg her, while the two children she had cherished threatened her by hurting themselves, Jiang Yuzheng's heart finally died.
She traded the medicine that could save her life for a divorce decree, thinking she would barely escape death. Instead, the mad minister, second only to the emperor and above all others, pulled her back from the brink.
That night, the man, noble as a divine descendant, knelt by her bed with red-rimmed eyes. "Sister-in-law, from now on, I'll protect you."
From that day on, the Chief Minister who struck fear into the entire capital had a weakness.
Later, her former husband, the heir, genuinely remorseful, brought their two children to beg Jiang Yuzheng to return. But the Chief Minister stopped them at the door. "My wife is delicate and frail, and she's allergic to scumbags. Stay away from her."
