Chapter 226: Scheming against each other
As for the dandy boy who was with Gu Qingcheng, he was a bastard in the family. When his parents heard that he had slept with the future Princess Chang, they were so scared that they almost lost their souls. When the bastard returned to the house, they directly sent him to the King of Hell with a bowl of poison.
Then he emptied out all the valuable treasures in his home and went to Prince Chang's mansion to apologize.
When King Chang heard about it, he accepted the treasure and did not punish them.
Instead, he had someone take him to the palace and ask Emperor Wu of Qin to issue another imperial decree to cancel his engagement with Gu Qingcheng.
When Emperor Wu of Qin heard that Gu Qingcheng had betrayed his son, he could not help but feel furious. He issued another imperial decree, reprimanding Grand Tutor Gu for not teaching his granddaughter properly and for failing to live up to the emperor's grace. He ordered her to be beaten with thirty sticks as a warning to others.
After Gu Xiangsi returned to the Grand Tutor's Mansion, Grand Tutor Gu ordered her to be severely beaten, almost killing her.
When he was beaten with twenty boards and carried back to the side room, Gu Xiangsi's face was distorted with anger.
The burning pain in her butt made her miserable and she kept wailing.
She lay on the bed with a painful look on her face, and her teeth chattered with hatred when she thought of Lin Pianran who had escaped triumphantly.
She lay on the bed, pounded it hard, and started cursing without restraint.
"Bitch, little bitch..."
"All of this must have been done by that little bitch Lin Pianran. This must all be her handiwork."
"Looking at her hypocritical and easy-going appearance, I really underestimated her!"
"She's really a biting dog that doesn't bark. Before we knew it, she'd already trapped all three of us. How audacious! How shameless!"
"The Zhao Palace, the Chang Palace, and the Grand Tutor's Palace—three very important palaces—how dare she attack them all at the same time and offend them all at the same time? Should I call her bold? Or should I call her stupid?"
"She offends people like this. Isn't she afraid that sooner or later, her enemies will torture her to the point of making her suffer a fate worse than death?"
"She has created such an enemy for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and the Crown Prince is also blind, and he actually treats her like a treasure."
"It seems that I have to take my eyes off the prince and look for my next target."
Zhuyue carefully applied medicine to Gu Xiangsi while comforting her, "Miss, Lin Pianran is truly a vicious woman! You should be careful and vigilant in the future. She is not someone you can easily mess with. She seems like someone who will take revenge for any slight."
"What? Are you saying I'm afraid of that little bitch? Am I someone who can be easily messed with?"
"This time, Lin Pianran has completely offended me, and I will not let her go."
Zhuyue's eyes showed panic. "No, no, who is Lin Pianran? If she didn't have the Crown Prince's support, who would she be? She has no status, no talent, and only that pretty face is worth looking at."
"One thing is that Lin Pianran is quite good at seducing men."
"She was able to seduce a man and make him fall head over heels for her. Although her methods were a bit despicable, it at least shows that she still has some skills."
"So far, it seems the prince is quite fond of her. In public, he doesn't care about other people's opinions and protects her very closely."
"In order to avoid suspicion on her, she was actually removed early on."
Gu Xiangsi rolled her eyes a few times, and said with a hint of jealousy, "If Lin Pianran can get close to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I can definitely get close to other princes. I really don't believe that with Lin Pianran's seductive tricks, I can do what she can do."
"In the future, I will definitely support the prince I favor and have him defeat His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I will make sure that Lin Pianran and the others are completely defeated, leaving them with no place to stand and no choice but to submit to him."
Looking forward to a bright future, Gu Xiangsi showed a faint smile on his face, as if he was sure of victory.
"Miss, right now, Prince Qi and Prince Gong are the best choices. Prince Qi already has a princess, and Prince Gong is a little younger and a bit immature. Among the princes, some are less prominent and probably the weakest."
"I heard that Prince Gong's mother is a person from the underworld, and her family doesn't have a deep foundation. Therefore, for many years, the mother and son have always lived cautiously to avoid causing trouble."
"And the Prince of Qi's mother comes from the prestigious Zhenguogong Mansion, a long-established noble family. Her status in the court is naturally immeasurable, and her foundation is extremely deep. Without sufficient strength, it is impossible to shake them in the slightest."
After a brief moment of thought, Gu Xiangsi said to Zhuyue, "After a while, when my injuries have recovered a little, I will send a letter to King Qi and ask him to meet!"
Zhuyue said with some worry, "However, the King of Qi is a prince after all. I wonder if he would mind the fact that the young lady lost her virginity before marriage?"
Gu Xiangsi, however, was full of confidence. "What is chastity? It's just a membrane."
"Look at the women in brothels. Aren't they the ones that make many high-ranking officials abandon their wives and concubines at home and spend millions of dollars on them?"
"So what if you have thousands of people on your pillow and tens of thousands of people riding on you? Isn't it still the same as seducing men who can't forget you and never want to leave?"
"The most important thing for a woman is to have charm and taste. What really makes a man unable to stop is a woman's skill in bed. As long as I can seduce him into bed, I will make him have only me in his heart and eyes from now on, and he will never let go."
"Willingly become my slave. From now on, you will be reluctant to leave and will let me control you."
"From now on, you'll want to hang out with me every day."
"Your lady still has this bit of confidence."
Zhuyue's face turned red with shame. She didn't expect her young lady to say such bold and explicit words.
It simply shatters one's three views.
"Miss, what are you talking about? If such bold remarks were to get out, wouldn't everyone be shocked?"
Gu Xiangsi looked at her with contempt and curled his lips in annoyance.
These ancients were really too conservative.
If a man is not romantic, his youth is wasted.
Throughout history, only women who can let go have greater opportunities.
Among all the famous women in history, which one attached importance to the concept of chastity?
It only binds women's hands and feet, making them unable to move.
It's of no use at all.
If a man has great power, he can support many women.
Women have great power and can keep many lovers.
Anyone with a little knowledge of history will see this phenomenon clearly.
Now that she is still fledgling, she can only try to please powerful men and gain their support.
Once she is in a high position, won't she be able to choose any man in the world?
How many lovers she wants to keep depends entirely on her mood, right?
