Chapter 1247: Separation 3
"Read your book carefully and don't walk around." Ye Qianning was a little worried.
Sang Zhi's face was stern.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Ye Qianning's face darkened: "Did you hear that?"
The housekeeper's heart almost jumped out of his chest when he heard this. The eldest lady was the one that should not be provoked in Kyoto City...
The next second——
"I heard it."
Sang Zhi spoke in a deep voice.
The housekeeper was stunned...
After getting the response, Ye Qianning felt relieved and walked out.
The butler was stunned for more than ten seconds before reacting and quickly followed.
"Miss...Miss."
"explain."
Ye Qianning walked out of the yard and into the corridor.
The butler hesitated to speak.
"If you have anything to say, just say it." Ye Qianning said.
"Miss...you just arrived in Beijing. Do you know anything about the capital's affairs?"
"good."
"Do you understand the Eighth Prince?"
“Not really.”
Sang Zhi had changed so much that she still hadn't figured it out. Ye Qianning was somewhat wary of Sang Zhi. Even if he could have risked his life to save her back then, it had been ten years now.
People are always fickle. They can change in a day or a night, let alone ten years.
Ye Qianning was just on guard and did not try to understand Sang Zhi too deeply. Now all her energy was on the Beili royal family, thinking about how to bring them down.
The housekeeper's face showed a knowing expression when he heard this: "My lady, the Eighth Prince is of noble status. If we anger him, our entire family may lose their heads."
"He does have a bad temper, but he's not the kind of person who kills people for no reason. Steward, don't worry."
“…”
It’s hard to explain the butler in a few words. The eldest lady is probably really unaware of the Eighth Prince’s deeds.
If he knew, how could he have dared to speak to the Eighth Prince like that just now.
"Miss, the Eighth Prince is a member of the royal family after all. You should be cautious when interacting with him." The butler suggested tactfully. He didn't dare to directly say that the Eighth Prince was bloodthirsty...
"Um."
Ye Qianning nodded.
Seeing that she was not cautious at all and looked worried, the housekeeper decided to let the old lady and the eldest daughter talk to each other later, otherwise if she angered the whole family, disaster would come.
When Ye Qianning arrived at the front hall, he happened to run into a group of people.
Walking in front was an old man with a hunched back, holding a cane in one hand and being supported by someone with the other. Following behind were several elderly people in their sixties and seventies, walking towards the hall step by step.
Ye Qianning stood by the door and did not enter first.
A group of old men walked to the door, just glanced at Ye Qianning lightly, and stepped into the hall.
Ye Qianning waited for the old man to go in before following him into the hall.
Gu Mingqiu was sitting in the hall. On the table was the divorce agreement written by Dai. He had been hesitant to sign it, thinking about how to get out of this situation.
Heart
He was already as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. When he heard the noise and looked up, he saw the clan elder coming in. He stood up in shock.
"Elder, why are you here?"
The elder glared at him angrily and asked, "Why did I bring people here?"
"Elder, my wife and I were just joking. We're not really getting a divorce." Gu Mingqiu said, then turned to look at Dai: "Madam, we were arguing, why did you invite the elders here?"
"This is not a joke." Dai stood up and bowed to the elder. "Please take a seat, elder."
The elder walked a few steps with his cane and sat down. "Second daughter-in-law Gu, if you want to divorce, I won't try to dissuade you. I just want to ask you, have you really come to this?"
Everyone in the Gu family knew what kind of person Gu Mingqiu was. Even when the Gu family fell, the second branch survived thanks to the Dai family.
The third and fourth wives have evil intentions. After the family split up, if they don't squander the huge fortune, it will be enough for them to live on for several lifetimes.
What a pity——
We lost everything in just ten years, and now we are lucky to be able to make a living.
