After Qian Ertong received the holy order, he immediately rushed to Prince Huai's Mansion and told Xie Xun and Qin Rushuang the news.
Qin Rushuang and Xie Xun looked at each other and ordered Zhu Sha to be called.
Zhu Sha ran to Prince Huai's Mansion in a hurry, "Prince! Princess! How are you doing?"
Xie Xun nodded and said, "It is exactly as we guessed before. The fourth child has indeed asked the public prosecutor to impeach the two of us. Father has already made a decision in his heart to give Gu Meiren death."
Although he knew that Gu Meiren was just faking her death, Zhu Sha couldn't help but feel angry.
"She's just a woman! Why should she bear this reputation?"
Qin Rushuang and Xie Xun also said the words they had prepared before.
"General Zhu, I asked Meiren for you again. She still feels that she is not suitable for you, so after she fakes her death this time, the prince and I will arrange other identities for her."
Disappointment flashed across Zhu Sha's face, but he still couldn't help but ask: "How will the prince arrange it? Where does he want her to go?"
Xie Xun shook his head and said, "Meimei Gu asked us not to tell you her future whereabouts, so I can't tell you what arrangements we will make for her in the future."
"My father has asked Qian Ertong to handle this matter. Don't worry, Qian Ertong will handle it flawlessly. Gu Meiren is definitely not in danger, but I'm afraid you two will have to go back to the bridge in the future.
.”
"...I know, Your Majesty. I won't disturb her..."
After that, Qian Ertong discussed with Qin Rushuang and Xie Xun, and finally decided to come to the palace in three days to deliver Bai Ling and poisonous wine.
During this period, Qin Rushuang needed to think of a way to get out of Prince Huai's Mansion and personally pick up Gu Meiren after she faked her death.
Qian Ertong was very thoughtful, and the method he said was repeated several times by several people without any flaws.
During this process, Zhu Sha sat in the study without saying a word, lowering his head and not knowing what he was thinking.
After several people finalized the final plan, Qian Ertong stood up and left. Before leaving, Zhu Sha also followed.
Zhu Sha was tall, with strong tendons, and he was obviously very powerful and domineering, but at this moment, Qin Rushuang looked at his leaving figure from behind, but she felt a little lonely and a little pitiful.
"I have really wronged General Zhu this time. I hope this matter can be settled quickly so that he and Gu Meiren can be together with Meimei."
Xie Xun stepped forward, patted Qin Rushuang's shoulder in a comforting manner, and said, "Don't worry, the two of them will live the rest of their lives well."
Everything was ready, and on the night when Qian Ertong went to Prince Huai's Mansion to inform Xie Xun about Gu Meiren's treatment, Qin Rushuang and Xie Xun had a big quarrel, which caused the whole palace to be brightly lit in the middle of the night.
In the middle of the night, the door of Prince Huai's palace opened wide, and Qin Rushuang actually left the palace with his maid.
After Qin Rushuang left the palace, she went directly back to the general's palace.
Their plan was for Qin Rushuang to pretend to have a big quarrel with Xie Xun, making the people behind it even more convinced that Gu Meiren would definitely die this time.
Qin Rushuang pretended to go back to her parents' house and prepared everything in the general's mansion. After Gu Meiren drank poisonous wine and faked her death, Qian Ertong took the body substitute to the mass grave and burned it.
The real Gu Meiren will be put in a box, disguised as a gift from King Huai to coax the princess back, and carried to the general's palace.
In order to make the play more realistic, the day after Qin Rushuang left Prince Huai's Mansion, Xie Xun went to the General's Mansion with a sullen face to coax his wife.
He walked in a high profile, and many people saw him along the way.
He just went to the General's Mansion, but was rejected in vain. Qin Rushuang didn't even see him.
Many brave people secretly came out to watch, and a few of them lowered their heads and whispered.
"It seems that the rumors that this Miss Gu is a witch who brought disaster to the country are true. Not only did General Zhu fall out with the princes and brothers, but Princess Huai also had a huge quarrel with Prince Huai because of this woman!"
"Oh, King Huai came to the General's Mansion in person to invite him, but the princess didn't even open the door to let him in. I'm afraid she is the only one in the world who dares to turn away King Huai!"
"I heard that the princess is indeed as close as a sister to that Gu Meiren. Otherwise, how could Gu Meiren, a concubine, interfere with the princess's property? She still has the freedom to come and go in the rouge shop all day long, and she doesn't look like a back-house woman at all."
"That's right. How can a female family member of an ordinary family go out and show off her face like this every day? Oh, don't tell me, is it because she goes out to show off her face and attract bees and butterflies, that's why General Zhu has a deep love for him?"
The people around them were whispering, but they didn't notice that behind them, there was a tall, strong man wearing a bamboo hat, and his face could not be seen clearly.
But as the people around him started talking, the fists under his sleeves clenched tighter and tighter.
The person standing behind is none other than Zhu Sha.
Although he had known for a long time that after such an incident, Gu Meiren's reputation would be in ruins, but he never imagined that rumors would be so powerful and make a good woman look like this in the public eye.
For the first time, Zhu Sha felt that he had not thought about anything in the past. He only followed the prince in the military camp and did not take advantage of his achievements to climb up. Did he do something wrong?
If his official position were higher, if his authority were greater...
Does it mean that Gu Meiren doesn’t have to suffer such grievances?
Do these people not dare to say such nonsense about the woman he likes?
Under the sleeves, Zhu Sha's hands had blue veins popping out. Suddenly, Ying Er's voice came from behind.
"General Zhu, please look away. Your Majesty ordered me to come and see how you are doing."
Zhu Sha relaxed his strength, lowered his head and said, "It's nothing, I just couldn't help but come and take a look."
Ying Er persuaded, "If Gu Meiren wants to live a carefree and carefree life for the rest of her life, she must go through this step. I have stayed in the palace for a long time, and I often watch Gu Meiren chat with the princess. I know that Gu Meiren is not like ordinary people."
A woman living in an inner house like that..."
"On the contrary, she has a free and easy personality, and she sees many things and all kinds of people in this world very clearly. General Zhu does not have to worry that these rumors will hurt her."
"I know..." Zhu Sha's voice was low, "I know that she has a free and easy personality and will not be affected by rumors from the outside world, but..."
He looked up at Ying Er and continued, "But you don't know what it feels like to like someone. You will understand when you have the woman you like in the future."
"When you are happy with someone, your heart and eyes are filled with her shadow. When you hear her name from other people's mouths, you can't help but stop and look."
"When you hear someone praising her, you will be happy from the bottom of your heart, and you will be more proud than when you hear someone complimenting yourself; when you hear someone slandering her, you will be angry from the bottom of your heart, wishing the whole world knew how good she is.
people..."
Ying Er opened his mouth, not knowing how to comfort him.
The prince was afraid that Zhu Sha would do something stupid, so he asked him to look at Zhu Sha. Now he can only accompany him silently.
Xie Xun in the front knocked on the door of the General's Mansion again, and received the news from the housekeeper that Princess Huai had not seen guests.
Xie Xun thought for a while and said to the housekeeper, "I know that the princess must be feeling uncomfortable. In the past few days, we have almost understood Gu Meiren's matter. Please help the housekeeper to take good care of her. I will take over after Gu Meiren's matter is settled."
She goes back to the mansion."
He paused and then said, "She has a deep love for the beautiful sisters, so it's better not to let her see that cruel scene."
After saying that, he turned around and left the general's mansion.
Among the crowd, the spies sent by Xie Yang saw Xie Xun leaving, and silently turned around and returned to Xie Yang's mansion.
