Chapter 107: Killing relatives for justice

When he finished speaking, Zhao Baokun and his group happened to arrive here.

Hearing this, Zhao Baokun couldn't help but sneer and said, "Cousin, you have learned the rules to be stupid. Although there are differences between men and women, if it is a matter of life and death, would you just watch someone die without helping?"

Shen Jingan's eyes fell on Zhao Baokun, and for a moment he almost couldn't remember who he was.

Later, it was the word "cousin" that made him remember, and he immediately said seriously: "Cousin, what you said is wrong. Although life is important, reputation is more important. If it is just for survival, at the very least, everyone can betray their loyalty. At the most, when the country is in danger, everyone can even collaborate with the enemy and betray the country. Could it be that, cousin, you think that all these can be ignored in order to survive?"

Zhao Baokun sneered.

Shen Jingan's words sounded high-sounding, but he was not an ignorant fool.

Shen Jingan's words were clearly a substitution of the concepts.

Sure enough, the next moment, Shen Jing'an continued, "Since ancient times, integrity is far more important than life, just like the banquet held by the royal palace to appreciate the chrysanthemums, which is to appreciate the chrysanthemums' steadfast and noble pride and character. Throughout the ages, all the heroes and predecessors praised by the world would rather die than surrender."

Zhao Baokun did not argue with him, but just said: "But my cousin seems to have forgotten that this does not involve the country, the world, or the national justice. Maybe it's just that the woman fell into the water and was lucky enough to be rescued."

Shen Jingan said bluntly: "But cousin, you should know that reputation is the most important thing for a woman!"

Zhao Baokun smiled, with a bit of cunning in his eyes: "Then according to my cousin, what would you do if you were this woman? Would you fall into the lake and wait for death?"

Shen Jingan said in a deep voice: "Although she didn't mean to fall into the lake, she is not in physical contact with a man. If she is not married yet, she should see if this gentleman is willing to marry her. If she is already a woman and a mother, she should die to prove her innocence."

Zhao Baokun's eyes were filled with surprise.

Shen Jingan is so cruel. He wants to force his own sister to death!

As the two people spoke, the two groups couldn't help but start a debate on this issue.

In this situation, for a woman, is her reputation more important or her life?

For a moment, this matter seemed to become a topic of discussion, and people seemed to be divided into two camps.

One group particularly agreed with Shen Jingan's statement and believed that the woman should have died, while the other group believed that the woman had done nothing wrong and the man saved her out of kindness.

"According to what you said, Brother Zhang, after this woman is rescued on the shore, Brother Zhang is willing to marry her?"

"Then according to what Brother Chen said, if the person who fell into the water was one of our sisters, would Brother Chen also want her to die?"

"Her innocence has been destroyed. Even if she doesn't die to prove her innocence, she should shave her head and become a nun."

"..."

The two parties were arguing endlessly. Qin Xuerong watched this scene and couldn't help but raise a very shallow curve at the corner of her lips.

Shen Shuyi, ah Shen Shuyi...

It's not that I want to teach you a lesson, but you are so ignorant that you dare to provoke me again and again!

The situation you are in now is all your own fault, you can't blame anyone else!

Qin Xuerong felt relieved when she thought that Shen Shuyi's reputation would be completely ruined from now on and she would never be able to find a good marriage again.

It’s just a pity that in order to help Sister Yu out of her predicament, the Wang family was chosen for her.

Thinking of this, Qin Xuerong looked at Mrs. Wang beside her.

However, judging from Mrs. Wang's attitude, the Wang family may not be willing to accept this marriage.

But no matter whether the Wang family is willing or not, at least after something like this happened, the Wang family will no longer have the face to propose to Yu Jie'er in marriage.

When she thought of this, Qin Xuerong felt in a very good mood.

It seems that this trip to Prince Duan's Mansion not only helped An Ge'er make friends with the Chai family and catch the eye of the Third Prince, but also killed two birds with one stone by settling Yu Jie'er's marriage with the Wang family and also taught Shen Shuyi a lesson!

At this moment, the debate between the two sides is still going on.

Zhao Baokun looked at Shen Jingan and said, "Cousin, you are talking without any hesitation. The girl who fell into the water was not yours, so of course you have no guilt in forcing her to death."

Facing Zhao Baokun's ridicule, Shen Jing'an remained calm and said frankly: "Cousin, you are wrong. If the person who fell into the water was from my Shen family, I would persuade her to shave her head and become a nun to prove her innocence."

Hearing this, Zhao Baokun said bluntly: "Oh, so the rules of the Shen family are so strict?"

Qin Xuerong said at this time: "We in the Shen family don't know what happened in the Qingyuan Marquis' Mansion, but An Ge'er is right. A woman's reputation and integrity are of vital importance. Although she didn't want to fall into the water, such skin-to-skin contact is a fact. For the sake of a woman's reputation, we shouldn't just pretend that nothing happened."

Princess Duan nodded slightly: "That's right. Although this is not what a woman wants, after something like this happens, even if she gets married in the future, she will inevitably be despised by her husband's family, and her life may not be easy."

Princess Duan's thoughts were not that complicated. It was simply because this man was causing trouble in Prince Duan's Mansion and made her unhappy.

Although Yuhu Lake is not designated as a forbidden area in the palace, it is unlikely that one will fall into the lake if one simply visits it.

Now that something like this has happened, and no one knows what dirty tricks are behind it, it has ruined the reputation of their palace for nothing.

Of course, let's take a step back.

A woman's reputation is indeed extremely important, otherwise princes and nobles would not carefully examine the bodies of their wives and concubines.

This is not just a matter of superficial reputation, but also to prevent confusion in the bloodline of future generations.

Zhao Baokun could not confront Princess Duan, and only said to Shen Jingan: "Maybe what others said is true, but my cousin really deserves the phrase 'sacrifice relatives for the greater good'. If it were me, if this happened to my relatives, I would never force her to death for the so-called innocence and reputation."

Princess Duan tried to smooth things over, and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhao is a man of sentimental character, so it's not wrong for him to feel reluctant. Mr. Shen is a pillar of society, so it's reasonable for him to value rules and etiquette more."

As they were talking, the guards and the maids beside Yuhu Lake hurriedly said, "They've rescued him! They've rescued him! He's been rescued!"

Shen Shuyi had already taken advantage of the chaos and stood behind the crowd without anyone noticing, watching the show.

Now that the people have been rescued, I want to see how Qin Xuerong and Shen Jingan end up.

Wang Xiao was panting and very tired, almost exhausted.

Fortunately, the guards and the nanny threw a rope to help, and he managed to rescue the person with a lot of effort.

But no matter what, the person is still alive, so Wang Xiao doesn't feel that this battle was in vain.

But rescuing people was so difficult that he was almost dragged into the water.

Wang Xiao walked ashore, all wet, and looked down at the woman in his arms.

Her hair was tangled around her cheeks, so her true face could not be seen. However, Wang Xiao felt that this person looked somewhat familiar.

The group of people stepped aside and Wang Xiao put the woman on the ground.

Mrs. Wang was the first to recognize her son. Her face turned pale and she rushed forward, saying anxiously, "Xiao brother, how could it be you!"
