When Ruan heard her nephew's cry on the ground, her whole body became cold, her eyes widened in fear, and the veins on her neck popped out.
"Who is your aunt? Who is your aunt?"
Among the people present, Ruan was undoubtedly the most frightened one.
She knew very well that her nephew's attempt to belittle Gu Qingyuan, whether tonight or last night, would be a death penalty if he did it.
Gu Qingyuan might be able to be held down, but now that she has reported to the police, how can she be held down?
As soon as her words came out of her mouth, her face turned pale.
If she didn't say anything, she might be able to take it out herself.
Now it is being covered up.
"I remember Master Gu once said in front of His Majesty that the most important thing for an official is to be upright and upright, and not to be subject to private interviews. I guess the same is true at home."
Pei Jinting threw away the rag in his hand, took out the snow-white handkerchief from his arms, wiped his fingers slowly, and stared at Gu Zhiyuan with a half-smile.
Said lazily,
"There should be no bias, right?"
Gu Zhiyuan truly felt the purpose of Pei Jinting's trip and the provocation from the prince's lineage.
He turned around and looked at Ruan who looked pale and panicked and said,
"Come here, send your wife to the ancestral hall to reflect. She will not be allowed to come out until she has repented."
Gu Yunniang swallowed aggrievedly,
"Father, a thief broke into the house. What does it have to do with mother?"
"Besides, why didn't this thief go somewhere else and went to my sister's yard instead? Who knows what the problem might be."
Gu Yunniang felt a little guilty at first, but then she thought about it. If she didn't take this opportunity to pull Gu Qingyuan down, she would never have another chance in the future.
Therefore, the attitude becomes more and more confident.
Gu Qingyuan looked at Gu Yunniang with sad and somewhat mocking eyes, then moved her steps and walked up to her.
In Gu Yunniang's shock, she slapped her in the face. After a crisp sound, there was silence.
Gu Qingyuan said,
"Today I will teach you to be a good boy. If you talk nonsense at home, no one will care about you."
"You should keep your mouth clean in front of outsiders, so as not to lose the Gu family's face."
"No matter how unbearable, despicable and despicable I am, I can't compare to your hypocrisy and filth."
She gently leaned against Gu Yunniang's ear and whispered,
"You want to marry Lu Wenze, right? If you work harder, it would be great to be a concubine."
After finishing speaking, he turned towards Pei Jinting and bowed slightly,
"Thank you for your willingness to handle official business late at night. For the safety of every family in the capital, I would like to ask you to interrogate the thief carefully..."
After finishing speaking, she walked away from everyone step by step.
No one can stop me.
Gu Yunniang covered her face that was so hot from being beaten, stamped her feet, and looked angrily and viciously at the "culprit" who slapped her and left.
At dawn, she was going to complain to Brother Wenze, who might cancel the marriage.
When the time comes, it will be her, Gu Qingyuan, who will be laughed at.
After being annulled before getting married, Gu Qingyuan had no choice but to marry into a poor family and live a miserable life.
Gu Yunniang kept thinking about Gu Qingyuan's downfall in the future.
The originally beautiful face became ferocious and distorted due to the thoughts of hatred.
Pei Jinting looked away from the figure who was about to walk away, and the loneliness and bravery all over his body left a shadow in his eyes.
He stood on the road silently, his eyes were dark and heavy, as if he was full of thoughts.
After a while, he said in a steady voice,
"The Duke of Zhen is fighting bloody battles alone on the battlefield. It makes no sense that you can't even handle household matters."
Gu Zhiyuan knew that the prince's family had been watching the Gu family in the dark, ready to drag the Gu family down from their heights at any time.
Otherwise, why would he suddenly take care of the Gu family's family affairs today?
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night, and the bustling and bustling city cannot reach the rich people living far away from the streets.
After leaving the door of Gu's house, Pei Jinting looked in the direction of the back house and heard his entourage say,
"I didn't expect that the eldest girl of the Gu family looks thin and frail, but she has courage."
Pei Jinting, with his hands behind his back and an unfathomable handsome face, ordered,
"Take the person back and let him reflect for a moment before interrogating him."
The follower understood and bowed to retreat.
Gu Qingyuan lay on the couch sideways, thinking carefully about what happened tonight.
Everything went as she imagined. Lu Wenze's people discovered Ruan's nephew and forced Gu Zhiyuan to punish Ruan under the guise of being an official.
The only deviation is the appearance of Pei Jinting.
At first I was a little surprised, but then I thought of Shuangzhi and felt that Pei Jinting's appearance was natural.
She turned around and lay facing outside, and saw Pei Jinting, who should not have been in her room, sitting in front of the bed.
"How did you get in?" Gu Qingyuan wanted to say that he shouldn't be here.
Why is he so bold?
But then I thought about it, this wasn't the first time either.
"You." She closed her eyes tiredly, "What are you doing here?"
