Chapter 190 The couple sang in unison, both understanding each other tacitly
Chu Ruohan and Gu Junze walked out from behind the rockery side by side, while the young prince Lin Jingchuan of Prince Yong's Mansion followed them leisurely with a playful smile on his face.
"Young Madam..."
Yuling squeezed out of the crowd panting, holding Chu Ruohan's spare clothes tightly in her hands.
Seeing the young lady standing beside the prince safely, Yuling's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down.
Her eyes were slightly red, filled with self-blame and fear.
It was all her fault for being too careless. If anything happened to the young lady, she would be blamed even if she died.
Chu Ruohan nodded gently and gave Yuling a soothing look.
When Mrs. Feng saw this scene, she felt secretly annoyed, but she quickly calmed down.
He put on that fake smile again, and first glanced at Lin Jingchuan, bowing slightly, "Young Prince is here too, I'm so sorry for not welcoming you."
Then he looked at Chu Ruohan, his tone full of enthusiasm, "Sister, your maid is lost. We don't know where you went. We are all worried. Why don't we all come together to look for you."
Chu Ruohan sneered and met Madam Feng's gaze, "Madam Feng, didn't you deliberately invite everyone here?"
"Sister, what are you talking about? I'm just worried that you'll get your clothes wet and get anxious waiting for me."
As she spoke, she looked at the women around her pretending to be aggrieved.
She is good at pretending to be innocent.
The ladies here are all smart people, so they can see it clearly, except for that idiot Madam Gu Si.
"Yes, you, the maid, are running around like a headless fly. Madam Feng was afraid that something might happen to you the first time you came, so she thought of having everyone come together to look for you."
As soon as she said this, the ladies around her took a few steps back as if they were avoiding the plague, fearing that her stupidity would infect them.
The Countess glared at her fiercely. Not only was she unpresentable, she was also stupid. It was really shameful to be her sister-in-law.
Gu Junze's expression was unclear. He only looked at Madam Gu Si dimly. "If you have nothing to do, why don't you go to the gambling house to look for Uncle Si, so that he won't lose all the family property?"
Mrs. Gu Si's face turned pale and blue. She stomped her feet fiercely and turned away.
However, this turmoil did not subside even after Madam Gu Si left...
Chu Ruohan was too lazy to continue pestering, her expression cold, "Madam Feng, if you still don't admit it at this point, then it's pointless. From the moment that maid poured tea on me, this whole situation, do you really think you can hide it from the world?"
Madam Feng was about to argue, but Guan Cheng stepped forward and said, "I can testify that someone deliberately wet my clothes and led me to that room. What happened today is definitely not a coincidence. Someone is behind this deliberate plot."
"Mrs. Feng, do you have anything else to say?"
Madam Feng's face suddenly changed, but she still managed to speak: "Master Guan, please don't make such false accusations against me. Do you have any evidence?"
"Evidence?" Chu Ruohan snorted coldly, "The maid from General Weiyuan's mansion led the male and female relatives into the same room. Madam Feng won't say it's a coincidence, right?"
Gu Junze's usually cold face was now covered with a layer of frost, and his eyes shot towards Mrs. Feng like knives.
"Madam Feng, how did my wife and I offend you? You actually plotted to destroy my wife's reputation. Today, General Weiyuan's Mansion must give my Anyang Marquis Mansion an explanation."
Gu Junze's gaze was almost devouring her, and Mrs. Feng's legs were trembling slightly...
When General Weiyuan heard that something happened to the female members of the family, he hurried over to calm the situation.
He rushed over with great strides, "Prince, Madam, this must be a misunderstanding. My Weiyuan General's Mansion is also well-known in this capital. How could we do such a despicable thing?"
Mrs. Feng seemed to have found a backbone and her body straightened a little.
"There were so many people at this Spring Festival banquet, and the maids must have messed up because they were too busy. Don't worry, I will definitely punish them severely."
At this time, Lin Jingchuan waved his fan and spoke slowly: "This matter is really getting more and more interesting. General Weiyuan put the blame on the maid in just a few words. It really opened my eyes."
This remark caused everyone to murmur and made General Weiyuan's face turn cold.
Gu Junze looked at him and spoke word by word, "General, this matter will definitely reach the ears of the Heavenly Emperor. This prince will definitely seek justice for the lady."
"Since General believes this is a misunderstanding, why not come with me before His Majesty so we can clarify things?"
Chu Ruohan also said, "The Queen Mother will not tolerate such a dirty thing. I will report today's incident to the Queen Mother and let her make the decision for me."
The couple sang in unison, and both understood each other tacitly.
Isn’t it rumored that the emperor is very fond of and caring towards his nephew Gu Junze?
Now it is convenient to use.
General Weiyuan's face turned ashen in an instant. He knew very well that if this matter was brought to the attention of the Emperor and the Empress Dowager, he would be in big trouble.
He glared at Madam Feng fiercely, secretly annoyed that she wasn't decisive enough, and immediately knocked her unconscious and threw her onto the bed...
Where do all these troubles come from?
Gu Junze gathered Chu Ruohan's cloak and walked outside with her in his arms.
General Weiyuan saw this and immediately followed him, "Prince...Prince...you must make trouble in the palace..."
Gu Junze paused, and pushed the person away with his backhand. His voice was so cold that it seemed to freeze ice.
"From now on, my Anyang Marquis Mansion and Weiyuan General Mansion will be irreconcilable! As long as I, Gu Junze, am alive, there will be no possibility of reconciliation between the two families!"
"The Gu family and the Feng family are irreconcilable and will never be friends again." The Countess's voice suddenly rang out among the female relatives.
As the eldest daughter-in-law of the Gu family's main wife, she has a certain say in the Gu family.
As soon as she spoke, the relationship between the two great families, the Gu family and the Feng family, was completely broken, and they were like water and fire that could not mix...
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, but when they thought about it carefully, the Feng family's actions would not only ruin Chu Ruohan's reputation, but all the female members of the Gu family would be implicated.
This spring banquet could no longer be held, and everyone said goodbye and left.
Chu Ruohan and Gu Junze got on the carriage. Before entering the palace, she had to find a place to change her wet clothes.
After saying goodbye to the Countess, Mrs. Gu San turned and walked towards her carriage.
Just as she was about to step forward, she suddenly caught a glimpse from the corner of her eye as Gu Jiacheng and a woman pulled each other into the alley.
Mrs. Gu San's brows were instantly twisted into a knot. How could this restless bastard behave in broad daylight?
She immediately turned around, winked at her trusted maid beside her, and whispered, "You, follow quietly and take a look. Don't alert the enemy."
"yes."
The maid took the order and chased towards the alley.
Gu Jiacheng grabbed Yang Zhaozhao with such force that he seemed to crush her wrist.
"You are really brave. How dare you, a concubine's daughter, lie to me that you are the eldest daughter of the Yang family?"
