Chapter 172
Gu Qing said this deliberately for Gu Yunzhao, who was sitting by the window, to hear.
If he still wanted to maintain superficial harmony and live a good life, he had to protect the mother and daughter.
Inside the house, Gu Yunzhao crushed the teacup.
Watching Gu Qing's back gradually walking away, he even felt for a moment that he could no longer control his daughter.
At the same time, the guard beside him said respectfully: "Master, Lord Chen has come out of the palace and is now heading to the Gu family."
"What?!" Gu Yunzhao's face suddenly changed.
Chen Zhizhou must not be allowed to know about the Gu family's affairs.
But on second thought, Chen Zhizhou is so good to Gu Qing now. If he sees that Gu Qing can also show off his power and speak at home, he will not be suspicious of the Gu family.
Instead, he felt that he had done his job properly and treated everyone fairly.
"Go tell Liu that she was so foolish and deserved to be punished for her mistakes. Considering that she has served for many years, she will not be expelled from the Gu Mansion and will remain as a concubine."
"Yes, sir!"
Over there, Gu Qing's men worked efficiently. Within an hour, they caught the spy in the kitchen. After careful interrogation, they found out that he was from the Liu family.
Liu had planned everything, but she never expected that Gu Qing would be so willing to sacrifice everything for Xu.
Azalea Pavilion.
Gu Miao ran out after a group of people, hugged Liu tightly, and roared, "What are you doing! Don't touch my mother!"
"Let my mother go! You are a bunch of traitors! What are you doing here? She's already married, yet you still dare to bully the Gu family!"
Liu's face was also tearful, and she complained sadly, "Gu Qing, you are really going too far! I have served your father for many years and am half your mother. How dare you attack your elders! This is simply against the will of heaven!"
Gu Qing's brows suddenly turned cold, and he looked at her with a gloomy gaze, "Are you worthy?"
"You dare to poison the mistress. This crime alone is enough to execute both you and your daughter." Although Gu Qing wanted to get rid of the mother and daughter, she didn't know where Gu Yunzhao's bottom line was.
Now is not the time to completely break off with him. It will not be too late to kill the mother and daughter when the Gu family declines.
But today, I will definitely make Liu suffer!
"Come here, use the family rules!"
Following Gu Qing's angry shout, the servant took out a whip and stood behind Liu.
The whip was covered with barbs, and one lash could tear off flesh. With Liu's body, she would die if she could not withstand more than ten lashes.
Gu Miao screamed and rushed to Gu Qing, "If you dare to hit my mother, I will never let you go!"
"Oh?" Gu Qing raised his eyebrows and brushed away her dirty hands. "Then why don't you give it a try?"
Gu Miao's pupils suddenly trembled. She had never thought that Gu Qing was so imposing now. Could it be her father? !
Impossible! My father doesn't like Gu Qing at all! He has always been using her!
Once the Chen family is dragged into trouble and she marries the fifth prince, Gu Qing will be nothing at all!
Seeing that Gu Qing was not threatened, Gu Miao lay on Liu again and said, "Don't hit my mother!"
"If you dare to do anything, I will tell my father and let him kill you!"
The servant who carried out the torture was from Cuihuayuan. Now that they had the eldest lady in charge, they were not afraid of Gu Miao's threats at all. Instead, they felt a sense of relief.
Cuihuayuan has been bullied by Dujuan Pavilion for so many years. Liu took advantage of the mistress's good nature and her non-competitiveness to frame them. Fortunately, the eldest daughter is now doing her best.
"Second Miss, I'm sorry." The servant whipped Liu's back hard, tearing off her flesh and making her feel excruciating pain.
Just one whip and she fainted.
Gu Qing frowned, feeling quite unhappy, and sent someone to investigate.
The servant shook his head and said, "Miss, she has indeed fainted. This... this is just one whip."
Even the servants found it outrageous.
If this matter had been resolved so simply, the Liu family would definitely not learn this lesson in the future, and the people in Cuihuayuan would not be able to hold their heads up.
Gu Miao was screaming until he lost his voice, but he was locked up and couldn't move, so he could only watch Liu being punished.
While Gu Qing was thinking deeply, a pair of strong hands wrapped around her waist.
Then, Chen Zhizhou's voice came from above, "Madam, what's wrong? You look unhappy?"
"It's not good. I'm thinking about how to wake him up."
Chen Zhizhou glanced at Liu lying on the ground, and his handsome eyes showed a cold and intriguing smile. The people around him broke into sweat when they saw him.
Why is my husband so scary?
"Lefeng, get started." Chen Zhizhou ordered.
Feng walked forward, picked up Liu from the ground, and pressed a few acupoints on her body. Liu suddenly opened her eyes and took several deep breaths.
Chen Zhizhou lowered his head and said flatteringly, "Madam, isn't he awake now?"
Gu Qing suppressed his smile and asked his men to continue working. He then turned to look at Chen Zhizhou, a smile flashing in his eyes.
Not far away, Gu Yunzhao looked over here, his eyes locked on Chen Zhizhou and Gu Qing.
"Master, I see that Master Husband is indeed good to Miss, but Miss doesn't like it that much. She has always remembered your instructions in her heart."
Gu Yunzhao said nothing, his fox-like eyes staring at the two of them for a long time, thinking, "It seems to be the case."
"Now Gu Qing actually talks back to me. If he dares to get on my head in the future..." When he said this, Gu Yunzhao's eyes were filled with coldness.
He didn't mind getting rid of a useless daughter.
In the yard, the scene of Liu's blood and flesh flying everywhere was horrific. Her desperate screams resounded throughout the Azalea Pavilion, and Gu Miao was frightened to faint.
