Chapter 28 Fanning the flames

The people from the National Master's Mansion threw her in front of the Gu family's door and left frankly. Gu Chang'an knew that the people from the National Master's Mansion didn't like her, so it would be nice to be able to send her to the place properly.

When Gu Chang'an entered the mansion, the maid who had been guarding him had quickly come up and said, "Miss, please come over."

"I see."

How impatient is it to send someone to wait here? I am afraid that Liu Weiqing will not be able to become the top martial arts scholar?

Gu Changan secretly laughed at himself and followed the maid to Gu Yuan's place, which was Liu Weiqing's yard. It seemed that Liu Weiqing was worried about Gu Yuan's injuries.

She entered the room without changing her expression. Gu Yuan was inside, and Liu Weiqing was half lying on the bed. Gu Changan's whip almost sucked Liu Weiqing half his life. He did not recover until today and finally woke up.

After glanced at Liu Weiqing's wounds with ravines on his body, Gu Changan was very satisfied.

When Liu Weiqing saw Gu Chang'an at this time, he felt unconsciously worried. The pain caused by the dozen or so whips now affected him.

Gu Yuan sat next to Liu Weiqing's bed. When he saw Gu Chang'an coming in, he said straight to the point: "How is the matter going?"

Gu Changan leaned lazily at the door and smiled: "Don't worry, the national master agreed. He will not pursue Liu Weiqing's crazy words."

"Really?" Liu Weiqing never expected that he would hear such good news as soon as he woke up.

Gu Changan waved his hand carelessly, "Can you still have fake?"

Judging from Gu Chang'an's confident look, you know that this matter has been solved.

Gu Yuan was overjoyed and finally took Gu Chang'an a little favor, "Very good. Since you have done your business honestly, I won't pursue you in the previous matter."

His high tone seemed to be giving alms to Chang'an.

Of course, for Gu Yuan, he was very kind to praise Gu Chang'an like this.

But does Gu Changan care?

Gu Changan was too lazy to pay attention to Gu Yuan, so he stood up straight and walked out.

This attitude of not taking him seriously at all, Gu Yuan couldn't help but frown, and he called her, "What are you doing!"

Gu Changan didn't look back.

Gu Yuan suddenly felt like a thorn in his throat, "This girl is against the verge of her..."

Liu Weiqing looked at Gu Chang'an's back. At this moment, she was really like Qingzhu who was tenacious at any time. She no longer had the original caution. She would not please him anymore, nor would she care about anyone in the Gu family.

In her eyes, there would be no one in their Gu family anymore.

After Liu Weiqing came to this conclusion, he felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

Gu Changan returned to Fanghua Garden from Liu Weiqing. The first thing he did was to see the situation of Iris. With Shaoyao taking care of her, her face looked much better than when she went out in the morning.

Shaoyao said: "Iris woke up a few times in the middle of the journey and kept asking the lady where she was."

She tucked the corners of Shaoyao, looked up at Gu Chang'an, who had obviously turned pale, and said worriedly: "Miss, is it because the people from the National Master's Mansion making things difficult for you? The matter of the young master..."

Gu Changan sat down and poured himself a glass of water, "Don't worry, nothing is wrong, I'll solve it."

Shaoyao suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, but said angrily: "Why is this a young master who made his own mistake and will end up being injured, you can't go to the National Master's Mansion to ask for help?"

She knew that with Gu Chang'an's current relationship with the National Master's Mansion, Gu Chang'an must have suffered a lot of grievances when he could make the National Master nod and agree not to pursue Liu Weiqing.

Although she was not present, she felt suffocated just by thinking about it.

Gu Changan put the teacup on the table, looked down at his hands, but smiled and said, "It's okay, I've also prepared a big gift for the Gu family."

Hearing Gu Changan say this, Shaoyao immediately said curiously: "Miss, what have you done?"

Gu Changan hooked his finger at Shaoyao, and Shaoyao immediately leaned over, and Gu Changan whispered something in her ear.

Shaoyao smiled and quickly applauded.

...

A lot of things have happened in the capital recently. The most interesting thing is that the eldest lady of the Gu family actually went to the gate of the National Master's Mansion and knelt for five hours.

This matter soon spread throughout the capital.

Miss Gu inherited the national teacher Yun Heng. A few days ago, the master and apprentice broke up. There was a rumor that the master had bad intentions towards his apprentice and was discovered by the Gu family, so the two broke up because of this.

The rumors are amazing, but there is no real evidence after all. It is just a romance. There are many different opinions about the reasons for their breakup, but only the parties involved know why.

But the two people who were supposed to never interact with each other in this way actually got in touch with each other. After everyone investigated it, they realized that Miss Gu was innocent.

The adopted son of the Gu family was bold and rude to the national tutor, which made His Majesty angry and wanted to punish him for not participating in this year's martial arts. The Gu family was anxious, so Mr. Gu joined hands with his adopted son to put pressure on Miss Gu.

Miss Gu refused to follow the rules, so she accepted the family rules and finally had to agree to ask for her former master.

As a result, he knelt in front of the National Master's Mansion for five hours and fell to faint.

In the morning court, Su Heng, the head of the Su family, who had always been incompatible with the Gu family, took advantage of this incident to impeach the Gu family in front of all civil and military officials.

But Su Heng used extremely clever words, not saying Gu Yuan every word, but saying Gu Yuan is heartless and cruel, and he actually forced a girl who was not as good as the hairpin to embarrass her in public.

At this time, the national teacher also happened to help, adding a lot of trouble to the whole thing, and the remarks arose that Gu Yuan deliberately pushed Guo Chang'an to block the pot.

It was Liu Weiqing who should have been responsible for this matter, but Gu Yuan dared to deceive his superiors and subordinates and asked his daughter to replace him with the situation. He was still so vicious.

His Majesty was furious, and the Su family was adding fuel to the fire next to him. He immediately criticized Gu Yuan in front of all civil and military officials, fined him a year's salary, and his official position was demoted to three levels in a row.

Although Gu Yuan saved Liu Weiqing's qualification as a martial arts practitioner, he paid a heavy price.

Being demoted to the third level means that he could stand out in the court, but now he can only fall into the sun.

After His Majesty punished Gu Yuan, he retreated. Many officials laughed at him. It was already unhappy that a concubine's son could climb onto their heads and sit on this rank of marquis. Later, he rose to prominence in the officialdom, which was even more jealous.

Now that they are demoted, there are so many people who are gloating.

Gu Yuan came out of the palace angrily and when he was down the steps made of jade, people who rushed to take advantage of the situation appeared.

"What are you doing when Lord Gu is leaving so urgently?"

When Gu Yuan heard this familiar voice, he suddenly turned his head, and his voice was filled with anger, "Su Heng!"

Su Heng carried the hem of the court uniform and walked slowly to Gu Yuan's side, smiling and said, "Mr. Gu has been so glorious for so long and finally lost his power. What does it feel like?"

Gu Yuan suppressed his anger and said coldly: "Don't be too proud, you just won me this time."

Su Heng glanced at Gu Yuan and smiled and said, "Who knows there will be no next time? After all, Lord Gu is unwilling to be just this first-class marquis, right?"

Gu Yuan was furious, his eyes changed, and he stared at Su Heng and said in a low voice: "What do you mean?"

Su Heng smiled, "literally."

His sarcastic look was so sarcastic that he looked like Gu Changan. It was indeed a family, which made people feel disgusted!

Gu Yuan took a breath, "Wait for me, Su Heng, I remember this humiliation, and I promise to return it to your Su family a hundred times next time."

Su Heng didn't care much, "I'll be waiting anytime."

Gu Yuan snorted coldly and left in a hurry.
