Gu Mingzhi sat down calmly.
He picked up the teacup and took a sip of hot tea.
Looking at the angry Lin Xianhong.
As the saying goes, a lean camel is bigger than a horse.
No matter how poor the Gu family is, the Lin family cannot afford to cheat them.
After all, the Gu family still has value to Emperor Feng.
"Lin Xianhong, you really have no brains."
"You're a good prince's consort, but you insist on having an abortion. I thought you were mentally ill. If I were you, I would definitely cling to the Ning Palace. As long as you give birth to a son, you will be the well-deserved mistress of the palace in the future. But you insisted on having an abortion, which I find bizarre."
"As for the rumors..."
"Will Emperor Feng suppress Prince Ning?"
"Use your brain. The biggest threat to Emperor Feng has never been Prince Ning, but the foreign kings. Prince Ning is there to check and balance the foreign kings. As long as the foreign kings are still around, Prince Ning will be safe."
Lin Xianhong's face turned pale.
Clench your fists tightly.
The nails almost pierced into the flesh.
After all, these words were said by Gu Mingzhi.
She used to call him Uncle Gu all the time!
These words are like a knife piercing the heart!
Many people in the military actually say things that are even harsher than this.
However, Lin Xianhong does not hate.
Because she knew she deserved it.
But what about Gu Mingzhi? !
She has given so much to the Gu family!
Now he doesn't even want to take out the money!
But she couldn't refute it now.
Because everything Gu Mingzhi said is right!
"And... do you really have any sense of shame?" Gu Mingzhi's face was cold. "Regardless of whether the Ning Palace was suppressed or not, you are already the Crown Prince's Consort. But you are having an affair with another man. This really opened my eyes. It's really rare to see a slut like you who is so eager to pay for someone else's favor!"
“…”
Gu Mingzhi knew that this was a murder and a heart-breaking act!
Lin Xianhong's face turned ashen.
Now she has been scolded by many people.
Chang Baicao, Shen Qinghe, Ning Que...
But none of them was as unpleasant as Gu Mingzhi's.
But she is unable to refute it now.
"Someone as fickle as you is doomed to have a bad ending. Ning Que is going to marry Shen Qinghe, the daughter of the Master of the Divine Machine Pavilion, and has the Queen Mother's approval. Do you think Ning Que will still want you?"
"I know……"
Lin Xianhong lowered his head, looking very lonely.
She was the one who lost Ning Que.
It broke his heart!
"Oh, there's one more thing." Gu Mingzhi smiled, "You've always thought it was Ning Que who drugged you, but you're actually wrong. It was His Majesty who ordered Butler Hu to drug you and Ning Que. Ning Que was completely unaware of this from the beginning. Because only if you get pregnant can he truly fulfill the old princess's last wish and inherit the throne! Do you think anyone can get their hands on the forbidden palace drug?"
“…”
Lin Xianhong was completely petrified on the spot.
Because no one had ever told her about this!
After that night, she was extremely sad and angry.
So he questioned Ning Que in person.
In the end, it was Uncle Fu who stepped forward to take the blame.
Naturally, she didn't believe it and asked Ning Que to explain.
But Ning Que refused to reveal the person behind the scenes.
She therefore concluded that it was all Ning Que's orders.
No matter how Ning Que explained, she didn't believe it.
Now……
"Do you know why he didn't say it?"
"Because this matter is very complicated!"
"What a pity! He thought so much about you, but in the end, you hurt her the most. So the moment you had the abortion, there was no possibility for you two anymore. Spilled water cannot be reversed, and broken mirrors cannot be mended. Just give up!"
"I see……"
Lin Xianhong lowered his head and said nothing.
Turned around silently.
At this moment she faced reality.
"Xianhong, as the saying goes, he who knows the current situation is a hero." Gu Mingzhi smiled. "You want money, actually, we can talk about it. Now my Gu family doesn't despise you. If you are willing to marry Yuan'er, I can give you 30,000 taels of silver."
"Marry Gu Yuan?"
“Isn’t this your dream?”
Gu Mingzhi smiled slightly.
This is actually a negotiation skill.
Suppress the opponent first, then promise some benefits.
After all, human nature always likes to compromise.
"You're dreaming!" Lin Xianhong was unexpectedly furious. She glared and shouted, "Even if I die, I won't marry a villain like Gu Yuan. Besides, he's already a cripple!"
Gu Mingzhi raised his eyebrows.
It seems like it had been expected long ago.
"Do you think I'm discussing this with you?"
"You know the Lin family's situation better than I do."
"Your father is now in debt."
"There are only three options. Either your sister, a virgin, will be taken as a concubine by Cao Du. Or, when the day comes to repay the debt, your entire family will be enslaved to pay off the debt. Or, you can marry my son."
Gu Mingzhi packed his clothes calmly.
He looked at Lin Xianhong with a half-smile.
He looked confident, as if he was in control of everything.
Lin Xianhong's eyes were cold.
He slammed his palm on the desk.
"You're dreaming!"
"Don't think you can threaten me like this!"
"It's up to you." Gu Mingzhi calmly put down the tea bowl, "The reality is before us. Right now, I'm the only one who can help your Lin family."
"Oh……"
Lin Xianhong left without thinking.
When the Lin family was in trouble, she was forced to marry Ning Que.
Is she being asked to sell out her dignity again?
No...never!
She just doesn't believe it!
With the connections she has made over the years, she can’t get the money!
