Steward Tang looked at his master with heartache. He was once a handsome and romantic young man, but he lost his title for a woman. Now, that woman has left him.
"Send someone over there, now."
"Yes." Butler Tang was afraid that he would get excited, so he quickly agreed.
The Fourth Prince's Mansion
Gu Pianran lay comfortably on the soft couch, with six maids standing around to serve her. The fruits and cakes were all top-quality items. They might not be a big deal in modern times, but they were rare and good things here.
A maid came hurriedly and knelt in front of Gu Pianran.
"Miss Gu, the Tang family has sent someone to pick you up." Gu Pianran looked at this tactless maid. She should have just refused such a thing early on, why did she come to her and say something?
Gu Pianran wanted to refuse, but she couldn't give the impression that she wanted to stay in the Fourth Prince's mansion.
She hesitated for a moment and said, "Order someone to prepare a sedan chair."
A maidservant standing by her side hurried forward to stop her, saying, "Miss Gu, it's not too late for you to leave until His Highness returns. If you leave now, we servants will be punished. Please, Miss Gu, have mercy on us."
Gu Pianran looked at them with an embarrassed expression. After struggling, she said to the maid who reported the news, "Tell the people in the Tang Mansion that I want to go back directly to the Gu Mansion and don't bother their master to worry about it."
"yes."
The maid left.
Tang Mansion
"Did she really say that?" Tang Jingyu was so angry that his face turned blue.
"That's what the people below said."
"Good, very good." Tang Jingyu paced back and forth in the room angrily. "She's trying to cut off ties with me. No way."
"Since they are so heartless, don't blame me for being ungrateful." Tang Jingyu said in a deep voice.
Housekeeper Tang was afraid something might happen to him, so he tried to stop her, saying, "Master, please don't be angry. Miss Gu is now at the Fourth Prince's residence and will definitely be under his protection. Our residence has just experienced a great disaster and can't withstand any more blows."
"Right now, the Third, Fifth, and Sixth Princes' descendants are eyeing us covetously. If we create a rift with the Fourth Prince, they will undoubtedly lose all scruples. Then, the inheritance left to us by the Emperor will be devoured by them."
Butler Tang's heartfelt words instantly calmed Tang Jingyu, who was burning with anger.
Now he had to rely on Gu Fanzhi. If Gu Fanzhi abandoned him, those who were once his enemies would not let him go.
However, he had nowhere to vent the anger in his heart.
He really has nothing now.
He was betrayed by both his beloved woman and his brother. The pain he felt was immense, and the anger in his heart could not be quelled for a long time.
Phew~~
Tang Jingyu spat out a mouthful of black blood and fainted on the ground.
Butler Tang panicked and hurriedly ordered someone to find a doctor. He also sent someone to inform the Fourth Prince and Gu Pianran. However, the guards at the Fourth Prince's residence had received orders early in the morning not to pass on any news from the Tang residence.
The reason was that Gu Pianran proposed to return home after Gu Fanzhi came back.
How could Gu Fanzhi let her go back? He kept her, claiming her injuries hadn't healed yet. After inquiring about the cause, he learned that it was someone sent by the Tang Mansion who had caused the trouble. He was so angry he issued an order.
Tang Jingyu was in a daze and heard the conversation between Butler Tang and the servants.
"Are they really not coming?"
"I waited outside for two hours, but they showed up."
