In Mr. Gu's eyes, the children of the general's mansion should be tougher, even if they are a little arrogant.
However, Chang'an's existence became a disgrace to the General's Mansion. For this reason, Mr. Gu often pretended that he did not have this granddaughter.
"Grandpa has to make the decision for his grandson." Gu Shirong's hand was still bleeding. "My grandson's fingers are all broken. It was all caused by that loser Chang'an."
Old Master Gu was annoyed and scolded, "You are worse than trash, and you still have the nerve to yell. Shame on you!"
"Dad." Gu Qingfeng's voice sounded behind everyone.
Also coming along were the Ninth Prince Bei Mingxuan and Gu Qingyun.
When the group saw Gu Chang'an covered in blood and holding a whip like a king from hell, there was no expression on everyone's face except surprise.
When Old Master Gu saw Bei Mingxuan was there, he immediately knelt down and said, "Greetings to the Ninth Prince."
Bei Mingxuan was dressed in white and chuckled softly. His voice was clear and gentle, as warm as the rising sun.
He said slowly, "This General Gu's mansion is quite bustling."
"I'm sorry to have been laughed at by the Ninth Prince." General Gu said with a hint of embarrassment.
"No, I just didn't expect that the same person managing the army and the family would be so different." Bei Mingxuan raised his eyes while speaking, a smile flashed across Gu Changan's face, and he shook his head slightly. "It's just... a pity for Miss Changan's face. Now that she has been exposed to the wind, I'm afraid she will never be able to recover in this lifetime."
"In that case, she should just stay in her room. Why would she come out to harm my Jiaer?" Qin said viciously.
Then she looked at her husband Gu Qingyun and cried, "Master, I don't know if my Jia'er will live to open her eyes again."
"What nonsense." Gu Qingyun already knew the whole story. Now, he didn't know how to explain Gu Shirou to the royal family and the Fourth Prince.
However, Qin's mother and daughter did not know how to restrain themselves and allowed their daughter to cause trouble in Chang'an.
"No nonsense." Gu Shirong said immediately, "Dad, look, my son's hand and Shijia's hand were all beaten into this state by Chang'an, and there's also Nanny Zhu who is already dead."
Before anyone else could speak, Qin Shumin couldn't wait to ask Chang'an, "Why did you hit my daughter?"
Gu Changan turned his eyes to Qin and thought, "If you ask like this, it's a crime that is set on fire. Confession? It's simply a fantasy."
Gu Qingfeng could also hear the meaning behind these words. He frowned in disgust, glanced at Qin but did not say anything.
Changan said forcefully, "I didn't hit him."
Qin was furious. "If it wasn't you who hit him, who was it?"
Gu Changan didn't care at all and said as a matter of course, "It's a whip!"
“…”
"You were the one holding the whip." Gu Shirong said while enduring the pain.
"No." Gu Changan said immediately, "Gu Shijia took the whip himself."
"Then..." Gu Shirong looked at the corpse on the ground. "Then, you killed Madam Zhu. Everyone saw it."
"Everyone? The sword in Nanny Zhu's body is obviously yours." Gu Changan sneered, "Gu Shirong, even if you want to frame someone, can you use your brain? You're as dumb as a pig, and you still have the nerve to be the eldest grandson of the Gu family? It's a disgrace!"
"Hehe~" After hearing Chang'an's words, Bei Mingxuan couldn't help laughing out loud.
This laughter made Gu Shirong feel humiliated instantly, but Bei Mingxuan was a prince, so no matter how angry Gu Shirong was, he couldn't say anything.
He shouted at Gu Changan, "Gu Changan, you have the courage to do it but not the courage to admit it?"
"No! No!" Gu Changan denied with a look of surprise in his eyes, "Why should I admit to something I haven't done?"
Bei Mingxuan, who was standing aside, found Chang'an more and more interesting after hearing Chang'an's answer, and a smile appeared on his face in line with his mood.
Old Master Gu noticed Bei Mingxuan's smile and immediately felt his face turn pale. He said with a stern face, "Don't play Tai Chi here. What's going on?"
"I was acting in self-defense." After Chang An brought Gu Shijia to his courtyard, he confessed everything. "But, I didn't kill him. It was Gu Shirong."
It is obvious that it was Gu Changan who beat the man, but it was Gu Shijia who provoked the incident. In other words, Gu Shijia's current state is her own fault.
"Look, she admitted it herself this time." Qin Shi did not acknowledge her daughter and deliberately made trouble, even though she knew in her heart that
Whenever Shijia was in a bad mood, he would always find Changan, the loser, to vent his emotions. "Shijia must not know that your face cannot be exposed to the wind. To put it bluntly, you did it on purpose."
"Don't embarrass yourself here." Gu Qingyun knew his daughter's character very well. Besides, it was Shijia who bullied Chang'an for so many years. "Just now, that girl Dongxue went to find Qingfeng. We were there. Ultimately, Chang'an can't be blamed alone for this matter."
Qin was not convinced. After hearing what her husband said, she wished she could die.
However, Qin didn't know at this time that what her husband was really angry about was that Gu Shijia had ruined Gu Shirou's face. For this reason, Gu Qingyun was unable to explain to the Fourth Prince.
Hatred and anger immediately emerged in Qin Shumin's heart like mushrooms after rain. She thought that her husband spoke for Chang'an because of that woman, Gu Chang'an's biological mother, Nangong Qiuya.
This woman has always existed in her husband's heart. In order to get this woman, her husband even colluded with the enemy and framed his own brother. However, man proposes, God disposes. His younger brother Gu Qingfeng was defeated, and the woman died in childbirth in the same year.
"Gu Qingyun!" Qin's anger grew even stronger. "You're just biased towards this loser. Don't think no one knows what you're thinking."
"What are you talking about?" Gu Qingyun's face was full of impatience. He had never had a comfortable day at home these days and was extremely annoyed.
Qin felt more and more aggrieved, her eyes seemed to be filled with poison as she looked at Dongxue fiercely.
Dongxue noticed Qin's gaze and immediately knelt down in front of Old Master Gu Xiong, "Grand Master, please spare me, Grand Master, please spare me." I was scared when I saw the eldest lady whipping my young lady's door.
Aunt Wanxin said that my young lady had just applied medicine on her face and could not be exposed to the wind, but the young lady did not ask anything and directly cracked the door open with a whip.
This will ruin my young lady's life. I had no choice but to go to the second master.
In the past, the eldest daughter often used the old master's name to teach my daughter how to use a long whip, and then took the opportunity to whip my daughter, causing my daughter to be covered in wounds. However, everyone in the mansion turned a blind eye. I was really worried that Miss Shijia would beat my daughter to death. She is the second master's only child.
