Once the young lady is divorced, the reputation of the entire Gu family will be affected. Not only that, it will also implicate the young ladies and gentlemen of the Duke's Mansion. Even if the Prime Minister's eldest son and Duke Yun do not blame the young lady, what about the other young ladies and gentlemen?
They will regard the young lady as an enemy, and the young lady will definitely not implicate others for her own sake.
She is trying to force the young lady to death!
Zhuye was so angry that she stood outside crying. She couldn't curse anyone. Taohua had a cold face and didn't say a word. Gu Yunran stood there quietly, pretending not to hear anything.
After kowtowed three times to Madam Lu, she stood up and left. Before leaving, she stood in front of Lu Qingzhou and gave him a cold warning.
"Lu Qingzhou, if you dare to do this, I promise you will regret it!"
She will let the entire Lu family be buried with her!
Lu Qingzhou hurriedly explained: "Yunran, Jiajia is just talking nonsense, I would never do that, I..."
I will love you well, but before I could say it, Gu Yunran and the two girls had already walked away.
It was her upbringing that allowed her to come and see Madam Lu off for the last time.
After Gu Yunran returned to Fangxingyuan, she locked herself in the yard and boiled tea on a small red clay stove, emitting bubbling steam.
It is June now and the peonies are in full bloom.
Her father told her to wait for news, so she waited with peace of mind. She believed in her father and brother.
Gu Yunran drank tea while admiring the peonies.
Mrs. Lu had just been buried. Lu Qingzhou came back and sat on the chair, but before he could even get comfortable, the letter of dismissal came down.
The emperor's oral order not only removed him from his position as Huaihua Zhonghou, but also said that his family tradition was not right and that he had disgraced the reputation of scholars, and thus cancelled his qualification as a Jinshi.
After the eunuch Zhao Fu, who delivered the oral order, left, Lu Qingzhou collapsed on the ground with a dull look in his eyes as if he was stupid.
All his hard work over the years was gone in an instant!
"ah!"
He screamed in pain and then fainted.
Fang Xingyuan.
Zhuye poured Gu Yunran a cup of freshly brewed Longjing tea. "Miss, this is the Longjing tea that the eldest master just sent this morning. Please try it."
"Brother, he's here?" Gu Yunran paused while holding the teacup. "Did he say anything?"
"You were asleep at the time, and the eldest master didn't let me call you. He just left after putting down the tea leaves." Zhuye said as she made tea for Gu Yunran, "The eldest master said that the memorials of accusation were submitted. When the emperor saw the two-foot-tall memorials, he was furious. Not only did he dismiss the fourth master from his title of Huaihua Zhonghou, he also revoked his qualification as a Jinshi."
"The Lu family is having fun."
Gu Yunran was in a good mood after hearing this. She used the tea lid to stir the tea leaves in the cup and felt that the Longjing tea became sweeter.
"Thank you for your hard work, father and brother."
The reason why she dared to fight the Lu family to the end was because she had a good father and a good brother backing her up. The Lu family relied on her to climb up step by step, and now she was going to completely destroy the Lu family.
"Lord Mu has also contributed a lot." Zhuye said mischievously.
"Yunran." When Gu Yunran was feeling happy, Lu Qingzhou came. She wiped away her joy and frowned slightly.
He placed the teacup heavily on the table and asked in a cold voice, "What's the matter?"
Plop.
Lu Qingzhou knelt at her feet, hugged Gu Yunran's legs, and burst into tears: "Yunran, I don't have a mother anymore. From now on, I will be an orphan without a mother to love me."
He cried like a baby.
If she had seen Lu Qingzhou crying like this before, Gu Yunran would have softened her heart long ago, but after the painful lesson in her previous life, she had long seen through the true face of this man and no longer had any feelings for him.
She remained silent.
Lu Qingzhou added, "Now I have no position, and the Jinshi degree I worked so hard to obtain is also gone. Yunran, I have nothing."
Lu Qingzhou was crying and snotting.
"Yun Ran, you are the only one I have now."
"I've worked so hard for so many years, but now I have nothing. I can't accept this. Yun Ran, please help me. Only you can help me now."
He spoke earnestly, "I, Lu Qingzhou, swear to heaven, as long as you help me, I, Lu Qingzhou, will only be devoted to you and you alone from now on, and all the other concubines can be driven out."
After this incident, he finally understood how terrifying the Gu family was.
Gu Yunran raised her foot, broke away from Lu Qingzhou, took a few steps back, and said coldly: "Lu Qingzhou, our fate has ended. If you let me go, I can show you a way out."
As he spoke, Gu Yunran winked at Zhuye and said, "Go get the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone."
"yes."
Zhuye went into the house, got a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone, and hurried out, placing them on the ground in front of Lu Qingzhou. She said, "Fourth Master, write the divorce agreement and let our young lady go back. She will definitely not make things difficult for you."
"I won't write!"
Lu Qingzhou angrily broke the pen and crumpled the paper into pieces. He stood up and looked at Gu Yunran: "You are my Lu Qingzhou's person in life and my Lu Qingzhou's ghost in death. Don't even think about leaving..."
Gu Yunran felt a headache after hearing one more sentence.
She turned and went into the inner room, asked Taohua to close the door and lock it.
Lu Qingzhou's fists were clenched so tightly that they made a creaking sound. He felt extremely uncomfortable. He had always thought that since Gu Yunran was so persistent and pursued him so hard, she would forgive him no matter what he did and she would not stop loving him.
Lu Qingzhou took a deep breath and murmured to himself: "She will forgive herself when she calms down."
***
In a blink of an eye, a month had passed. During this period, Lu Qingzhou did not come to Fang Xingyuan to bother her. Gu Yunran was happy to have some peace and quiet. However, Lu Qingzhou did not mention a word about the divorce papers she wanted.
