Chapter 825: Many Cheats 146
Shen Yuanniang thought, saying that she had no vision and divorced her ex-husband, were they slapping themselves in the face? The fact that she could marry her current husband showed that she had vision, after all, wasn't her current husband's family doing well?
Because she was despised by her husband's family, Shen Yuanniang was naturally unhappy during that period. But she thought, if she divorced her husband, who else could she marry? She couldn't marry anyone better, so she could only swallow her anger and comfort herself in her heart that even if her husband's family was weird to her, as long as they didn't divorce her, she would be the daughter-in-law of a third-rank official and would still have a lot of face in the outside world.

And their family members would not disrespect themselves in public, that's enough.

Although she comforted herself in this way, seeing her husband's family treating her like this, needless to say, Shen Yuanniang was naturally unhappy and aggrieved.

Unexpectedly, one day he would have his moment of fortune - his third brother-in-law became the emperor!

This is really unexpected.

So although Shen Yuanniang was confused by the fall of Concubine Wang and her son, she was not disappointed at all, because Concubine Wang and her son were outsiders after all, and Shen Sanniang was her own sister. Even if they did not have a deep relationship, wouldn't she be better than an outsider? After all, even if they did not have a deep relationship, she could enjoy countless benefits just by virtue of her status as the Queen's sister.

So when she saw her third brother-in-law becoming emperor, Shen Yuanniang was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.

When she saw her status in her husband's family rising like a rocket as her brother-in-law became emperor, she was even more delighted and couldn't stop smiling.

However, she was only happy for a short while, and then she remembered how this family had been mean to her and how she had felt depressed.

Now that she has turned the tables and is feeling proud, she has to avenge those people for treating her so badly back then. Otherwise, she would feel unhappy whenever she thinks of the humiliation she felt back then.

How can we avenge what happened that day?

Shen Yuanniang thought about it for a long time and felt that it would be better to divorce her husband.

Because no matter how she dealt with those who were sarcastic to her that day, she felt that she could not vent her anger, because as long as she was still in this family, she would definitely worry about their future. If this family became prosperous because she was the queen's sister, those who were sarcastic to her would naturally rise with them. How could she accept that?
Only if she divorced her husband, this family would surely become like other families without her, and even if their official positions would not be completely demoted, they would be reduced to their original status, instead of retaining a little dignity as they are now.

By then, not only will this family not become prosperous because of herself, on the contrary, they will lose their official positions. Those people who were sarcastic to her will not be able to prosper anymore, and they will even be scolded by their family members because of their sarcastic remarks to her in the past. They will blame them for being sarcastic to her and making her angry and leave. Their life will be miserable, and Shen Yuanniang will not help but feel very happy.

Even though she had broken off the engagement once and divorced twice, she couldn't marry into a good family again, but she would be happy if she could bring these people down. She did it right away and proposed a divorce to her husband's family.

Her husband's sister was able to divorce and return home quickly after the Wang family fell into poverty, so she could naturally do the same after her husband's family fell into poverty. After all, she learned all this from her husband's family.

Shen Yuanniang's husband's family had not expected that Shen Yuanniang wanted to divorce, and her attitude was very firm, so they were naturally unhappy at the moment - they didn't think that the Wang family would be unhappy when their girl came back after a divorce, but now that the matter had happened to them, they knew they would be unhappy.

Just like they threatened the Wang family to divorce their wives, and the Wang family had no choice but to do so, Shen Yuanniang also dared to threaten their family. Shen Yuanniang said that if their family dared not write the divorce letter, she would go to the palace to ask her sister for help. Her sister didn't even need to issue an edict to say anything about their family. She just needed to teach their family a lesson in the future, and their family would be in trouble.

Threatened by Shen Yuanniang, Shen Yuanniang's husband's family had no choice but to sign the divorce letter reluctantly. They dared not disobey the letter. Of course, they did not dare to endanger Shen Yuanniang's life. After all, Shen Yuanniang said that she had already told the Queen's sister that she wanted a divorce. If anything happened to her, it would be her husband's family's fault. What else could they do after saying this? They could only let her go. After all, if they dared not to let her go and really harmed Shen Yuanniang, who could withstand the wrath of Queen Shen?

Although they knew that Empress Shen and Shen Yuanniang had an ordinary relationship, they were still sisters. If they killed her, Empress Shen would definitely come forward, so they dared not do anything and could only let Shen Yuanniang go.

Sure enough, not long after Shen Yuanniang left, the ministers saw that this family had nothing to do with the queen, and they dismissed them completely. There was no other reason, this family was the first to follow Concubine Wang, and as the first people to follow, Concubine Wang also used them very much. Since she used them very much, not only were their positions promoted quickly, but they also did the most bad things. So now that they had nothing to do with the queen, they were naturally punished. They were not killed, and even their homes were not confiscated. They were just dismissed completely, which was already good enough. This was also because in order to deal with the people who had caused the palace coup, too many people's homes had been confiscated recently, and they could not continue to have their homes confiscated unless they had committed a particularly serious crime, otherwise the capital would be in a panic.

Although she was not beheaded or even her property was confiscated, the mere fact that she was stripped of her official position was unacceptable to Shen Yuanniang's ex-husband's family. And as Shen Yuanniang had expected, those people who had been sarcastic to her in the past were now blamed by her ex-husband's family. They felt that it was all their fault, that they had been sarcastic to Shen Yuanniang and made her unhappy, and that they held a grudge against them and left.

It's no wonder they think this way, because when Shen Yuanniang said she wanted a divorce, she said it directly, saying that they had been mean to her and felt that she was not worthy of their family, so she should just leave and let their family find a suitable person to marry her.

It was only at this time that they understood that the reason Shen Yuanniang was determined to divorce was not because their family had fallen on hard times, but because their family had been sarcastic towards her.

That's right. Even if their family fell into poverty due to the downfall of Concubine Wang, Shen Yuanniang was the aunt of the new emperor, so their family wouldn't be that bad. If she was doing well in their family, she wouldn't have to divorce. She would only think of leaving because she was wronged.

After figuring out the real reason why Shen Yuanniang left, her ex-husband's family naturally began to blame those people who had made sarcastic remarks about Shen Yuanniang being unworthy of her ex-husband. They felt that if these people had not been sarcastic and angered Shen Yuanniang, Shen Yuanniang would not have left now.

If Shen Yuanniang hadn't left, their family wouldn't have fallen into such a state.
