Madam Shen came this time to pin the label of unfilial on Shen Han.

Forcing him to return to the Shen Family with her.

As the saying goes, "When your parents are alive, don't travel far."

When the elders in the family are still around, the younger generation should naturally always care for and attend to them.

Madam Shen had already prepared her speech in her heart.

Shen Han is fond of ease and hates work; the clan practices are arduous, and the family upbringing is strict, so he hid in the Yun Family and refused to return home.

She did not believe that with her accusations, Shen Han could continue to hide securely in the Yun Family.

The citizens of Anyang City would scold Shen Han back to the Shen Mansion.

But what Madam Shen had in mind was already anticipated by Shen Han.

Just stepping off the carriage, before she could move forward.

Shen Han, Madam Yun, and a group of Yun Family juniors all saluted Madam Shen.

It is only natural for the younger generation to salute the elders.

But seeing Shen Han's weak appearance still diligently saluting, people's discussions began to shift a bit.

Shen Han slightly bowed to salute, his movements slow.

Then it seemed as if he couldn't stand steadily, staggering suddenly, and if not for the quick hands of the Yun Family members nearby, he would have fallen to the ground.

Seeing this, Madam Yun looked panicked and quickly tended to Shen Han.

The onlooking crowd was also startled by this sudden happening, causing some chaos at the scene.

Madam Shen's old face looked bewildered, never expecting such a situation without having said a word.

Madam Yun supported Shen Han, her face showing some anxiety.

"Han was ambushed by a villain at the Thousand-Autumn Grand Gathering, the injury is severe, he cannot stand for long.

Please allow, Old Dowager, for your grandson to seek treatment first."

This set of remarks were initially intended to accuse Shen Han of being unfilial.

Yet faced with this situation, she instead somewhat seemed like an unloving elder.

Before Madam Shen could speak, the fallen Shen Han somewhat ambiguously spoke up.

The surrounding people appropriately quieted to hear what Shen Han had to say.

"Third Madam, help... help me up, I have not yet paid respects to Old Dowager...

I... do not want to be punished again..."

Wow--!

Upon saying this, all the residents of Anyang City who had gathered to watch fixed their gaze on Madam Shen.

Previously they thought Shen Han was unfilial, but it turned out the situation was reversed!

Within the crowd, people began whispering.

"Just saying, no wonder Shen Han doesn't want to return to the Shen Family, being treated so harshly."

"Exactly, I just saw that child didn't even have the strength to open his eyes, yet still wanted to rise and pay respects..."

"I fear the treatment at the Shen Mansion would be even worse..."

A group of people talked amongst themselves.

Like adding fuel to the fire, once public opinion starts to lean negatively, more people will join in.

"Old Dowager, I beg you, let Han go and recuperate...

Even if you do not like him, he is still your grandson..."

Madam Yun had long lost hope for the Shen Family's reputation, no longer caring about it.

Her purpose today was to act out a play with Shen Han.

Let outsiders witness whether Madam Shen is truly as kind as rumored.

Confronted by such words, Madam Shen's face turned unsightly.

Living so many years, she never imagined being schemed against by the younger generation.

Hesitating for a long time before she spoke, she told Madam Yun to quickly support Shen Han to rest.

The gaze of the people of Anyang City was like roasting Madam Shen over a fire.

"I heard before that Madam Shen only favored Shen Ye, treating her other grandchildren poorly."

"I also heard from friends in Yun'an City that the Shen Mansion is actually quite cold-hearted!"

"High gates and grand residences, it seems not all possess noble virtues.

If elders can't be compassionate, how can the younger generation be filial..."

A group of people pointed and discussed, leaving Madam Shen unsure of how she finally departed from Anyang City.

Came to label Shen Han as unfilial, only to trap herself in a pit.

On the way back to the Shen Mansion, Madam Shen's face remained gloomy and she stayed silent.

She never thought that Shen Han would confront her with the same tactics.

In a few days, these matters could spread.

The tale of Madam Shen's harshness toward her juniors would likely circulate throughout the entire Great Wei.

Upon returning to the Shen Mansion, the carriage sped up.

Madam Shen didn't mind the bumpiness, the luxurious carriage lifted into the air and returned to the Shen Mansion in less than half a day.

Seeing Madam Shen return, the people in the Shen Mansion were taken by surprise.

Approaching to greet, yet Madam Shen, bearing a gloomy face, headed directly to the ancestral hall.

Instructing the maid Cai Xue to fetch the Sound Transmission Magical Artifact, immediately sending a message to Shen Qingshan.

Madam He went, I went myself.

Since none worked, then let her third son go.

Shen Lingsheng is Shen Han's biological father, the promise of the Thousand-Autumn Grand Gathering was also made by him to Shen Han.

This troublesome matter should indeed be resolved by her third son.

Sitting in the reclining chair, Madam Shen felt that her own Shen Han became increasingly difficult to handle.

In the Shen Mansion before, Shen Han didn't dare go too far, always keeping a low profile.

But leaving the Shen Mansion, Shen Han's tactics became somewhat cunning!

Madam Shen unconsciously frowned, perhaps this engagement was indeed hard to break off.

Thinking back, the old master was not wrong; Shen Han, this child, indeed would bring disaster to the Shen Family.

On the eastern side of Great Wei.

Shen Mansion's Patriarch Shen Qingshan, upon receiving Madam Shen's message, immediately sought out Shen Lingsheng.

"Today is already the sixth of the twelfth month, look at your good son, still hiding in the Yun Family.

If this engagement is not dissolved, will we truly let him marry Su Jinyu!"

Hearing his father's words, Shen Lingsheng couldn't help but frown.

As he expected, Shen Han still was unwilling to make sacrifices for the Shen Family.

"I will leave for Anyang City today, this rebellious son, I will handle him personally."

With that, Shen Lingsheng leapt onto his horse's back.

Leading a small team, he headed for Anyang City.

Anyang City is already on the eastern side of Great Wei, from the Eastern Mountains of Great Wei, a fast horse can reach in only four to five hours.

In the Yun Mansion.

Shen Han took a Pill, and his previously weak appearance quickly recovered.

The act just now was merely a side effect of a special Pill.

Madam Yun brought some dishes, placing them in front of Shen Han.

To better portray a weak appearance, Shen Han hadn't eaten breakfast that morning.

"After Old Dowager returns this time, the next one to come should be my father."

Shen Han smiled slightly, having seen through the Shen Family.

Untrustworthy, self-righteous.

When it comes to rules, they only apply to others, never to themselves.

Hearing Shen Han say this, Madam Yun's expression changed slightly.

"If he still has any dignity, he should know he shouldn't come.

Having already bested Su Jinyu at the Thousand-Autumn Grand Gathering, what more does he want!"
