Gu Yanfei tilted her snow-white cheeks and smiled slyly.
She believed that she wasn’t a magnanimous person, and she was very petty. She had always been vengeful.
She didn’t mind showing this in front of everyone. Then, the next time others wanted to provoke her, they would naturally consider if they could withstand her counterattack.
Chu You’s heart was a mess. When he heard that, he was even more furious, and his gaze was uncertain.
After trying all kinds of methods but to no avail, he could only lower his head and look for Fang Mingfeng.
Only then did he know that Fang Mingfeng had actually brought the Li family to the capital.
This time, Gu Jian and his mother were related to the Yu family’s rebellion. They were guilty of conspiracy, which involved the entire family. Now that Gu Yunrong was Gu Jian’s daughter in name, it was recorded in the Gu family register. It naturally couldn’t be hidden.
Even if Chu You could persuade the Emperor to agree to pardon Gu Yunrong and not be guilty, with her ident.i.ty as the daughter of a sinner, Gu Yunrong wouldn’t contribute much to the imperial court. It was probably impossible for him to marry Gu Yunrong as his main concubine again.
Unless Gu Yunrong wasn’t Gu Jian’s daughter.
Unless Gu Yunrong had nothing to do with Gu Jian and was removed from the Gu family’s genealogy.
However, in this way…
“Chu You, you have to think carefully. This way, hong Rong’s true ident.i.ty will be completely exposed in front of everyone and can’t be hidden anymore. Rong Rong will probably become the topic of gossip after dinner.”
Chu You could naturally imagine what Fang Mingfeng could think. With Gu Yunrong’s character, she wouldn’t be willing to become a laughing stock.
For the past two days, Chu You had been hesitating and weighing the pros and cons.
He also wanted to consider carefully if there was a more suitable way to let Gu Yunrong escape from the Gu family and settle the Li family with a dignified ident.i.ty.
The Li family, born into a n.o.ble lineage, was even lower in status than common peasants!
But before he could arrange everything, he encountered this matter.
At this moment, Chu You really wanted to kill Zeng Ya!
In the past, Zeng Ya thought she was smart, but later, Gu Yanfei pressed on step by step, forcing her to have no other choice.
In the blink of an eye, Chu You’s mind was already filled with thoughts. He made a decision in his heart.
He stared at Zeng Ya with cold eyes and said word by word, “My future princess consort has a biological sister who went missing a few days ago. These days, I’ve ordered people to look for her everywhere. I didn’t expect her to be abducted by your Zeng family.”
“Your Zeng family abducted her first, and now you’re even distorting right and wrong here. If you don’t have evil followers around you, could it be that the Zeng family deliberately provoked the royal family and made me and the Eldest Prince not get along?!”
“You’re already so crazy, but the Zeng family still lets you come to the palace. It’s really inappropriate!’1
Unlike Gu Yanfei1 s gentle voice just now, Chu You didn’t hide his thunderous anger at all. In just a few words, he had already sealed the coffin and made a conclusion, not giving Zeng Ya any room to refute or question.
If he said that Zeng Ya had gone crazy, then Zeng Ya was crazy. Otherwise, the Zeng family would have a sinister heart.
It was just one of two choices. Even if Zeng Ya didn’t choose, the Zeng family would choose for her.
Zeng Ya sensed Chu You’s anger and looked at his bulging temples in fear, but she still stood straight, unwilling to lose the bearing of an aristocratic family.
She wasn’t afraid of Kang w.a.n.g. Kang w.a.n.g couldn’t do anything to her. The problem was that she had acted on her own accord in this matter and caused such consequences. If the news reached home, her father and brother would definitely be furious.
In order to calm the impact of this matter, even if she didn’t go crazy, she would probably be crowned with this t.i.tle by her father, brother, and clansmen.
Just like her uncle, Zeng Yue.
Her uncle, Zeng Yue, was a very contradictory person. On the one hand, he was talented and left behind a first-generation poem. On the other hand, he was crazy by nature and had many strange ideas. One moment, he built cannons and blew up houses. The next moment, he said that he could open the patient’s stomach and undergo surgery. In the presence of his primary wife, he even suggested promoting a personal maidservant to a similar status, blurring the lines of hierarchy and treating everyone equally…
Outsiders only knew that Zeng Yue had been burned to death by the Daoist priest’s method, but she happened to hear her father and brother’s secret conversation and knew that the truth wasn’t so.
It turned out that the Daoist wasn’t invited by the Zeng family. He was here on the orders of the previous Emperor. The previous Emperor was afraid of Zeng Yue and wanted him to die.
If a monarch wanted a subject to die, the subject had no choice but to die, so Zeng Yue could only die.
She would also have the same outcome as Zeng Yue.
“Men, take her away!’1 Chu You ordered coldly.
“I…* Zeng Ya panicked and finally couldn’t help but take a step back, at a loss.
She was already in a dilemma. Not only did she offend Gu Yanfei, but she also offended Kang w.a.n.g.
If she admitted that she had deliberately lured Li Zhaodi to slander Gu Yanfei, she would become a sinister villain.
If she didn’t say anything, she wouldn’t be able to wash away her reputation as a crazy demon.
No matter what, it would definitely sully her family’s reputation. Her family wouldn’t let her off.
Zeng Ya was at a loss and was sweating profusely. At this moment, no matter what she said, it was wrongs
