Chapter 57: Falling out
"It's been a whole day and night, why hasn't Yunjin come back yet?"
"Why can't you just go over and take a look?"
"Is it that girl Jingchun who's secretly doing something wrong? Otherwise, why would His Royal Highness the Crown Prince care about this matter for no reason?"
Chu Qianlan shouted hoarsely, her voice full of anger.
"Don't you know what's going on with Jingchun?"
Gu Weiang was overwhelmed by Chu Qianlan's shouting.
He has thought of various ways, but until now he has not met the prince, let alone Gu Yunjin.
That prison was heavily guarded.
No matter how much money he spent, he couldn't get in.
Hearing Chu Qianlan's words, he became very annoyed and couldn't help but raise his voice.
"What ability does she have to make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince support her?
Instead of making trouble here, you might as well worry about Jingchun.
She was summoned into the palace by the Queen Mother for no reason and she doesn't even know why?"
"That girl has a lot of ideas. I don't know why she offended the Queen Mother."
Chu Qianlan felt hatred whenever she thought of the scene of Gu Jingchun strangling her neck.
I wish the Queen Mother would punish her severely, so why would I care about her life or death?
She was only worried about Gu Yunjin's safety now, and blamed Gu Jingchun for Gu Yunjin's arrest.
So when he saw Gu Jingchun come in, he immediately shouted at her, "How dare you come back?"
Gu Jingchun chuckled.
"What are you talking about, mother? This is my home. Why wouldn't your daughter dare to come back?"
Chu Qianlan said this and took two steps towards Gu Jingchun.
"You caused your sister to be arrested, and you still have the audacity to claim that she's your family! Do you have any family like you?"
"Go find the Crown Prince right now and tell him that what happened that day was a misunderstanding. Ask His Royal Highness to hand Yun Jin over, and I will acknowledge that you are from the Yong'an Marquisate."
Hearing this, Gu Jingchun couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Do I care?"
"Do I need your approval?"
"Do you really think your Yong'an Marquis Mansion is a good place?"
As she spoke, her eyes glanced at Gu Weiang.
"Now that it has come to this, I might as well make things clear."
"I have a bad temper and I like to hold grudges. As long as you don't provoke me, then we can live in peace."
"But if you insist on provoking me, don't blame me for being rude."
There was a silent threat and oppression in Gu Jingchun's eyes, which made Chu Qianlan subconsciously take a step back.
“Otherwise, Gu Yunjin is an example.”
Gu Jingchun added another sentence.
Seeing Chu Qianlan’s pale face, she smiled and left with satisfaction.
Gu Wei'ang looked at her back. Although he was angry, he kept a stern face and did not call her.
Because at this time, Gu Jingchun made him a little confused.
Especially the fact that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince took Gu Yunjin away, it seemed that he was maintaining the public order of Tiandu, but in fact he was supporting Gu Jingchun.
Therefore, he did not act rashly.
Instead, he secretly gave instructions to the secret guards around him.
"Follow Gu Jingchun secretly. This girl's behavior is too suspicious. If you see anything unusual, report it at any time."
When Chu Qianlan heard what Gu Jingchun said, her chest heaved with anger.
"It's outrageous, outrageous."
"It's all because of her! Ever since she came back, there has been no peace in our house."
"It was right to send her away."
"That monk Sai was right, she is an evil star, born to bring disaster to our Yong'an Marquis Mansion.
As long as she is here, there will never be peace in our house."
Chu Qianlan was so angry that she spoke without thinking.
But Gu Wei'ang's expression changed and he covered her mouth with his hand.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
His expression was colder than ever before, and Chu Qianlan took a step back helplessly.
"If you can't control your mouth, I can lock you up for life."
Chu Qianlan was so scared when she heard this that she nodded quickly.
"I just spoke without thinking and made a mistake. I will definitely pay attention in the future."
Chu Qianlan took a step back guiltily, "It's getting late, I'll go back now."
Having said that, the man left quickly.
It looked as if there was a flood or a beast behind him.
Late at night, the entire Yong'an Marquis Mansion was shrouded in darkness.
Because Gu Jingchun had spent too much energy in the palace today, he fell asleep early in his arms around Gu Jinxi.
However, the world in her dreams was bizarre and strange, and Chen Hechuan kept appearing, making her feel as if she had returned to the comfortable and sweet days in the inn.
And in Gu Wei'ang's study.
A man in black sneaked into his study and stood in front of the desk.
Gu Weiang sat quietly behind the desk, writing uprightly.
He was a military general who could barely read a single word. He even scoffed at the practice of scholars cultivating their sentiments through writing.
However, as he spent more and more time in the court,
I know more and more words and read more and more books.
Gradually, I began to write in my spare time.
Especially when I am feeling uneasy like now, I need to write something to calm myself down.
The man in black stood quietly in front of him until he put down the brush in his hand, then he slowly spoke.
"The Marquis' Mansion has been very busy recently. My Lord, please don't forget what your mission is."
He added another sentence after he finished speaking.
"My Lord, you should control your family and avoid getting too close to people you shouldn't be associating with."
Gu Weiang nodded.
"She's just a country girl who won't cause any trouble. Isn't your master being too cautious?"
Gu Weiang looked up and stared into the eyes of the man in black. The strong sense of oppression made him lower his eyes before he continued:
“Your master’s matter will not be a problem, he will soon know my sincerity.
Therefore, please, your master, take good care of my daughter who is in prison."
The man in black nodded and clasped his fists when he heard this.
"Your Majesty, you are joking. As long as Your Majesty cooperates, the master will certainly take care of this little matter."
******
And at this time in the sky prison.
Gu Yunjin was shivering in the corner, covering his ears in fear.
But even so, the screams continued to reach her ears, making her body tremble.
From the moment she came in until now, she watched helplessly as the person imprisoned opposite her was taken away cursing and then carried back covered in blood.
She looked at him being tortured to the point where he couldn't even speak, her legs went weak and she could only huddle in the corner and tremble.
Even the cockroaches and rats inside couldn't make her scream.
Just as she was shivering, footsteps suddenly sounded in the darkness.
The sound is very soft and not easy to detect if you don't listen carefully.
It was not until the footsteps stopped in front of Gu Yunjin that she slowly looked up.
A short jailer was standing outside the prison, staring at her and throwing a steamed bun in.
