Chapter 153 Gu Yulou beats Tutor Lu
Gu Ruanci thought that the matter was over at this stage, but she didn't expect that Master Lu would come to her house again.
This time he even shamelessly asked Gu Ruanci to help Lu Hongbo treat his vitals.
As soon as he said this, Gu Congyun got angry.
"Master Taifu, we respect you as the Emperor's teacher and have always treated you with the utmost respect. But you repeatedly force your way through us. What's the meaning of this? Her soft words haven't even come out yet, so what are you asking her to see?"
Imperial Tutor Lu probably anticipated that Gu Congyun would be unhappy, but he still insisted, "I know this is indeed difficult to accept, but the Duke should understand that our Lu family is small... and Hongbo is the Prince Consort after all. If he is inhumane, wouldn't that be a disservice to the Princess?"
Zhuang Hefeng said directly: "If the Lu family feels that they are holding the eldest princess back, have they ever considered divorce?"
When Master Lu heard this, he naturally disagreed.
"How can this be possible? It's already very difficult for Hongbo to marry the eldest princess..."
Zhuang Hefeng said disdainfully, "Even after marrying her, she still doesn't know how to behave..."
Master Lu knew their attitude and thought that a gentle approach would not work.
He hinted, "Lord Duke, Madame Duke, have you forgotten who the eldest princess loved in the first place?"
Gu Yutang's face changed as he remembered Lu Shuyi's pestering of him.
Gu Congyun and Zhuang Hefeng also felt uncomfortable when they recalled the torture they had endured during that period.
"Master Taifu, what does this mean?"
Imperial Tutor Lu said, "If my grandson divorces the eldest princess and she becomes free again, who will she turn her attention to? Don't forget, as long as General Gu's marriage hasn't been finalized, there are always uncertainties."
Gu Yutang said calmly, "I understand what you mean, Grand Tutor. However, isn't it a bit inappropriate for someone of your high esteem to be making trouble for the eldest princess of a country? I've already explained how I was wronged by the eldest princess's love back then. The eldest princess is a magnanimous person and will naturally not dwell on the past. I never thought that Grand Tutor would use this matter to threaten our Gu family. This is truly beyond my imagination."
Master Lu also felt uncomfortable. If Lu Hongbo really had no way to cure the disease, he would not have used this method.
"Of course, I have no intention of threatening you. I am simply seeking help from the Chaoyang County Lady."
Gu Congyun still had no room for negotiation and said directly: "If Master Taifu has such an attitude, then our Gu family can only send you away."
After saying this, he kicked Master Lu out of the Gu family without any explanation.
"There's no way to hide this from her, so why not just tell her directly."
Zhuang Hefeng thought about it and decided that this matter could not be concealed.
Gu Yutang also said: "My younger sister is smart, so this incident won't affect her. What we should be thinking about now is that we may have another enemy in the future."
Gu Congyun didn't take it to heart at all: "This guy, who relies on his seniority to bully others, dares to treat our Gu family in this way. You can imagine how he treats others. He really thinks that after teaching the emperor for a few days, he can control the country and everyone in his hands. Even for the emperor, I have to make him behave himself."
Not long after Master Lu left, Gu Ruanci knew his purpose.
Gu Yuxuan almost jumped up at that time: "How can he be so shameless at such an old age? My sister said she is not proficient in gynecology, and he actually wanted me to treat that disease for his grandson? Why didn't he just go out and kill himself?"
Gu Yuting was rarely calm: "This old man is simply a scum..."
They didn't wait for Gu Yulou to speak, and when they turned around, they found that Gu Yulou was not there.
Soon, servants were seen running in hurriedly.
"Master, Madam, the Third Young Master beat up Master Lu in the street..."
These words shocked everyone.
Gu Ruanci was even more confused. She didn't expect her third brother to be so fierce.
But when I thought that he was trying to stand out, I felt warm in my heart.
"Well done..." Gu Yuxuan cheered.
Gu Yutang was already thinking of a solution: "Father, Mother, the right thing to do is to bring my third brother to the palace to apologize immediately."
"That's right. Once this matter reaches the palace, we may not know what's going on. Regardless, the Emperor will always be concerned about this teacher, and our Gu family must give an explanation."
Gu Congyun agreed with his third son's approach, but he just couldn't do it directly.
"Prepare the car immediately and bring the Third Young Master back."
Gu Congyun's tone almost gave him away; he was genuinely happy.
Zhuang Hefeng reminded him to be more calm.
When Gu Yulou came back, he didn't say anything stupid like "one person should take responsibility for the consequences of his actions." He knew that this was absolutely impossible.
However, he didn't think he had done anything wrong. What Master Lu said last time was enough to make him angry, but he didn't expect him to be even more shameless this time.
His sister, those messy people also want to plot against her?
"Little sister, don't worry, with us here, no one can take advantage of you."
Gu Ruanci responded with a smile, and then told Gu Congyun to pass the message to Master Mo.
The Gu family immediately understood that Master Mo’s suppression of Master Lu was truly effective.
Soon, the Gu family tidied up and took Gu Yulou to the palace to apologize.
Tutor Lu was embarrassed and wanted to take advantage of the situation, so he naturally went to see the emperor.
As a result, the two families met again at the palace gate. Taifu Lu directly accused Gu Congyun: "Duke, you raised a good son!"
Gu Congyun said with great satisfaction, "Thank you, Master Taifu, for your compliment."
When Master Lu heard what he said, he became even angrier.
"It seems that everything he did was at your behest. I thought the Duke wasn't someone who took credit for himself, but now it seems I was wrong."
Master Lu’s words did not irritate Gu Congyun.
When Zhuang Hefeng looked at him, the only thing that came to his mind was the word "hypocritical".
Just for a good-for-nothing grandson, this old man actually wanted to ruin their daughter's reputation!
"Master Taifu, you should be thankful that it was my son who took action today. If I had taken action directly, I would have made you look very ugly."
Zhuang Hefeng didn't want to endure it anymore. This old guy had become more and more arrogant over the years.
Just as Tutor Lu was about to say something, the eunuch came to announce that the Emperor and the Empress Dowager were waiting inside.
"How come the Empress Dowager was alarmed?" Master Lu was a little surprised.
"Perhaps it's because the Grand Tutor is highly respected, and the fact that you were beaten is a serious matter, so the Empress Dowager naturally stepped in." Gu Yutang's tone was calm, and it was hard to tell whether it was a compliment or sarcasm.
Gu Yulou used a light "tsk", which made Master Lu even more angry.
At this time, Master Mo was on his way to the battlefield...
