Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Gu Yunrong was about to marry Kang Wang. With her around, the Embroidered Uniform Guards wouldn’t dare be too impudent. They had to be careful!
Gu Yunrong nodded slightly at Gu Jian and the others. She picked up her skirt and crossed the threshold. The ruby beaded flowers on her temples made her eyes shine brightly.
She walked towards He Lie with a clear goal and said righteously, “Commander He, there’s no evidence. The Embroidered Uniform Guards first searched the residence and then sealed it. They’re so lawless. Isn’t this too arrogant?!”
Compared to the tall and mighty He Lie, Gu Yunrong, who was only as tall as his shoulder, looked so petite and slender. But even so, she was still fearless and calm in the face of the ferocious commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
Her expression was neither servile nor overbearing, and her eyes were clear. A pair of small dimples were faintly discernible at the corners of her red lips, and her face was likable.
Everyone in the Gu family subconsciously held their breaths.
He Lie’s cold expression didn’t soften at all, nor was he moved at all. His voice was as cold as ice. “Who do you think you are? How dare you question the Embroidered Uniform Guards?”
Gu Yunrong was speechless.
Ni Zongqi coughed dryly and explained, “Commander, Third Miss Gu is the future Princess Consort Kang.”
“Oh?” He Lie said in a strange tone, as if he was implying something. “So it’s Third Miss Gu.”
He stared at Gu Yunrong with deep eyes for a long time, making her feel a little uncomfortable. He said coldly, “Third Miss Gu, even if you’re Princess Consort Kang today, it’s not up to you to interrupt the Embroidered Uniform Guards!” “Much less when you’re not yet Princess Consort Kang!”
The last sentence was powerful.
It was as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over their heads. The flames of hope that had just ignited in the Gu family’s hearts were instantly extinguished.
A few women fell limply to the back of the chair.
“…” Gu Yunrong pursed her cherry lips tightly, and the dimples on her lips deepened.
She was clearly just stating the facts and had no intention of using Kang Wang to suppress others. However, the Embroidered Uniform Guards deliberately distorted her. As expected, they were as arrogant and impudent as the rumors said.
He Lie strode past Gu Yunrong and didn’t look at her again. It was as if she wasn’t worth looking at.
“No one is allowed to leave until His Majesty decides! Otherwise, don’t blame us Embroidered Uniform Guards for being impolite!” Ni Zongqi warned the Gu family in a commanding tone. He didn’t give them any chance to speak and left with He Lie.
Their disdainful gazes were as if the Gu family members present were just ants that couldn’t cause any waves.
As for Madam Lei and her son, they were escorted away by the Embroidered Uniform Guards. The door to the hall was slammed shut, and a few armed Embroidered Uniform Guards were left outside to guard the door.
After a while, the footsteps outside faded away, and the hall fell silent. A suffocating atmosphere filled the surroundings, and everyone’s hearts were heavy.
“…” Gu Yunrong gritted her teeth and slowly turned around. Her gaze was as deep as water as she looked at the closed door. She felt like she was in jail.
The Embroidered Uniform Guards had gone too far. The Emperor had allowed the Embroidered Uniform Guards to barge into their mansion and do whatever they wanted without caring about the law. The Emperor was definitely not a wise ruler.
Gu Yunrong comforted herself to calm down.
“Gu Xiao.” Gu Jian strode towards Gu Xiao and asked with a frown, “What exactly is going on?”
Gu Xiao hugged his head with both hands and didn’t hear him. When Gu Jian called his name again, he suddenly exploded and shouted hysterically, “It’s you. It’s all your fault!”
Gu Xiao rushed towards Old Madam Gu and glared at her with bloodshot eyes. He clenched his fists tightly.
“Grandma, you don’t want to live in this small house. You want to kill us all and then live in Gu Yuan’s mansion, right?!” Gu Xiao said crazily, looking at Old Madam Gu as if she was his enemy.
As soon as these words were spoken, the hall fell silent.
“Xiao’er…” Old Madam Gu’s body trembled violently, as if she had been hit hard.
She didn’t expect her grandson, whom she had doted on since she was young, to say such a thing to her. Her pale lips trembled, her chest rose and fell rapidly, and her face turned paler and paler.
She was already over 50 years old. To put it bluntly, she didn’t have many years to live.
If it weren’t for her blood and bones, for the sake of the children in the family, she wouldn’t have fallen into this state!
All these years, everything she had done was for them!
But now, her grandson was criticizing her like this.
“You… what… Did you say?” Old Madam Gu said intermittently. Tears appeared in her turbid eyes as she looked at Gu Xiao in heartache and shock.
“Second Brother.” Gu Yunrong’s expression darkened, and her eyes were fierce. “How can you speak to Grandma like that! You’re hurting Grandma’s heart too much.”
Gu Jian also felt that Gu Xiao’s words were inappropriate, but he was frustrated and had a lot on his mind. He really didn’t have the heart to teach his son a lesson.
“…” Gu Xiao wanted to say something but hesitated. His face was tense. In the end, he turned his face away awkwardly, feeling indignant.
Gu Yunrong quickly walked to Old Madam Gu’s side and gently stroked her back. She revealed a gentle and bright smile and comforted her. “Grandma, don’t be angry. With such a thing happening in the family, I think Second Brother only said something wrong in a moment of anxiety.”
“He’s young and inexperienced…”
With that, she turned to Gu Xiao and said, “Xiao’er, come over and apologize to Grandma!”
However, Gu Xiao, who had turned her face away, didn’t move. He didn’t even look at Old Madam Gu, and his brows were deeply furrowed.
Gu Yunrong sighed in her heart. She couldn’t be bothered to argue with Gu Xiao anymore and felt the need to resolve the current problem first. “Grandma, what exactly is going on?”
“Why is Madam Lei hiding in our house?”
Old Madam Gu’s eyes flickered. She rubbed her fingers on the prayer beads for a while before saying helplessly, “I did take her in!”
Gu Yunrong was shocked, and her eyes widened slightly..
