Upon hearing this, Gu Cixiu lowered his eyes to look at the embarrassed-looking Madam Lu, and sighed.
"Lu Yimei, since you entered the Gu family, I have treated you with all my heart and provided you with abundant material comforts."
But look at what you've done!
They condoned Gu Zichen's corruption, bribery, and abduction of women!
And you! You conspired with Gu Zichen to poison me, seduced a married man, and had an affair with another man.
Today, Madam Wang even came to our door! She's ruining the Gu family's reputation!
Lu Yimei, I trusted you so much, yet you did such a terrible thing. Doesn't your heart ache?
Gu Cixiu grabbed a stack of Xuan paper from his sleeve and scattered it in front of Madam Lu.
Upon hearing this, Lu's eyes revealed a look of fear.
She hurriedly spread her arms, gathered the sheets of paper filled with "crimes" into her bosom, and moved towards Gu Cixiu while kneeling.
"My lord! My lord! Please let me explain!"
These are all fake! It's her!
"Gu Qianluo is slandering me!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Qianluo narrowed her eyes, walked straight towards the Lu family, and roared,
“Mr. Lu, we have made a copy of all the evidence.”
If it weren't for your past contributions to the Gu family, I would have already handed these things over to the authorities!
And you are still safe and sound, simply because of your father's sincere love for you!
Lu gave a wicked smile and coldly mocked,
"Gu Qianluo! You're nothing but a stray dog now!"
What gives you the right to act so arrogantly in front of me? Hahaha!
Look at Xue'er, she has already become the Crown Princess!
You even have an heir, but what about you? You have nothing!
You're a joke! Your mother is a slut! You deserve to end up like this!
You don't know yet, do you? Your mother was actually poisoned by your father! Hahaha!
Upon hearing Lu's words, Gu Cixiu's heart trembled, and he roared angrily.
"You're talking nonsense! Don't try to sow discord between me and Luo'er!"
"Lu Yimei! You deserve to die!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Qianluo's eyes flashed with anger, and her fury surged into her palm, resulting in a loud crack.
Lu felt a burning pain on her cheek.
"You! How dare you hit an elder! I am your legal mother!"
Gu Qianluo! You've disobeyed your elders! Be careful, you might be struck by lightning!
You just wait! Wait till I tell Xue'er, and you'll be in for it!
Gu Qianluo found it amusing, withdrew her hand from her grasp, and said in a deep voice,
"You wicked woman, you are not worthy to be my mother!"
Gu Qianlu turned to look at her father, only to see his brows furrowed in a deep frown as he stared intently at Lu Shi kneeling on the ground. She spoke up, offering a reminder.
"Father, what are you waiting for? Is it because you can't bear to part with him?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Cixiu slowly closed his eyes, his heart aching as if being cut by a knife.
He gritted his teeth and, with trembling hands, threw the letter in front of Madam Lu.
"Gu Zichen has been sent to the yamen for forcibly taking a woman."
As for your affair with the prefect, it has probably been spread far and wide by Madam Wang!
Once the letter of divorce is issued, you will no longer be a family man!
However, I am not a heartless and ungrateful person.
I've heard that a royal temple in Fengzhou is recruiting nuns. I'll send someone to take you there after noon."
Upon hearing this, large tears streamed down Lu's face. She rushed forward, grabbed Gu Cixiu's leg, and cried out...
"Master! Master! Please, please spare me!"
Don't divorce me! I know I was wrong! Please spare my life! I don't want to become a nun!
Gu Cixiu had made up his mind. He quickly pulled his leg back and walked outside, suppressing his tears.
"Master! Master! Don't go! Waaah! I did all this for Zichen's own good!"
As Gu Cixiu's figure disappeared completely, Madam Lu collapsed like a lump of mud.
She slowly raised her eyes and saw that Gu Qianluo was still standing there. She then rushed over and kowtowed to her repeatedly.
"Gu Qianluo! It was all my fault before!"
I was wrong! I'll never bully you again!
"Please persuade the master to withdraw the divorce papers, okay?"
Gu Qianluo didn't bother to look at her again and said coldly,
"Lu Yimei, you brought all this upon yourself!"
It's too late to say all this now!
After saying that, she turned and walked out of the house without looking back, leaving Madam Lu alone in the Buddhist hall.
Behind her, Lu's maniacal laughter could be heard intermittently, along with her cries of pain.
Gu Qianlu frowned slightly and snorted coldly, "If you had known this would happen, why did you do it in the first place!"
She came to the Gu residence today simply to catch a glimpse of Gu Cixiu.
As I entered, I witnessed such a fascinating scene, which forced me to stop.
Now that the show is over, it's time for her to leave and take care of her business.
Just as he was about to leave, Gu Cixiu's aged voice came from behind him.
"Luo'er! Since you're already here, have some dinner before you leave!"
"Father! Luo'er has important matters to attend to. We can discuss it another time..."
"Luo'er! Luo'er! Is that Luo'er?"
"I told you Luo'er wasn't dead! You've all lied to me!"
Before Gu Qianlu could finish speaking, she felt a warmth spread through her body and was pulled into a familiar embrace.
Her nose tingled, a surge of heat rushed to her throat, and tears welled up uncontrollably.
"Grandmother! I'm sorry to have worried you!"
"It's good that you're back! It's good that you're back! Let Grandma see you quickly!"
"Our Luo'er has become even more beautiful after a year!"
Changing the subject abruptly, Old Madam Gu began to rub and massage Gu Qianluo's arms and legs, frowning as she spoke.
