She was born noble, but due to an investigation in disguise, she was injured and lost her memory, only to be saved by a poor scholar named Qi Che.
At that time, he was as upright as bamboo, w...
Gu Tingyuan's expression suddenly changed. "Princess, what do you mean? Although I have run some businesses, this involves royal tribute. How can I..."
Suddenly, Gu Tingyuan's words were stuck!
Because he suddenly thought of Gu Yanran. When he was in Jiangnan before, he had given her some silk shops as a dowry. Could it be possible?
"Why didn't Prime Minister Gu continue?" Chu Qingluan looked at him leisurely, "But what did you recall?"
"Speaking of which, when I was in Jiangnan City, I also opened several silk and satin shops. Unfortunately, as soon as your daughter arrived in Jiangnan City, she first occupied my shop and burned the goods to be offered as tribute. She even took advantage of her status as the daughter of the Prime Minister to capture the shopkeeper and the clerks in my shop. Does Prime Minister Gu know about this?"
Gu Tingyuan had lost his previous calmness and composure. His face was as pale as paper and cold sweat kept dripping from his forehead.
"Your Highness, please understand. My daughter is young and ignorant. She must have been deceived..."
When these words fell, all the officials in the court were shocked.
"What? Is this true? This Miss Gu is the daughter of a famous family, how could she be so arrogant?"
"That's right. I heard that she just married this year's top scholar a while ago. Why would she covet someone's small silk and satin shop instead of being the top scholar's wife?"
Chu Qingluan's lips curled slightly, her eyes swept across Gu Tingyuan's panicked expression: "Miss Gu has already married and become a woman, how can she be young and ignorant?"
After saying that, she spread out her wide sleeves and took out a divorce letter from her sleeves. It was the same letter that she had used to divorce Qi Che in Jiangnan City.
Then, she slowly unfolded the divorce letter in front of all the civil and military officials in the court: "You all know that Miss Gu not only took away my shop, but also my ex-husband - the new number one scholar Qi Che!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the court was in an uproar, and several old ministers were so shocked that their tablets fell to the ground!
