C16 Disgrace

Zhenyuan wandered around the manor for a long time and still felt a bit worried. He returned to the manor. However, just as he stepped through the courtyard door, he saw the scene of Gu Xiaoxiao slapping herself.

He quickly stepped forward and dragged Gu An An An behind him. When Gu An An saw Marquis Zhen Yuan, he also started crying.

"Father, I was wrong. I should have listened to him. [Elder Sister actually …] "Just give me a slap."

Gu Xiaoxiao was used to watching her put on an act, but she didn't show a trace of surprise. Instead, she looked like she was used to it. Seeing that she had made a mistake and was still so confident and confident, the Marquis of Zhenyuan roared angrily, "Gu Xiaoxiao, what do you want!?"

Mrs Zhao also walked out of the room at this time and scrambled to kneel at Marquis Zhen Yuan's feet. She said tearfully, "Master Hou, Xiao Xiao is also so angry that she became like this. "She is just a pure and innocent girl, yet she was wronged by others. Naturally, her heart will feel depressed."

When Marquis Zhen saw Madame Zhao, he became even more agitated. He had long ceased to love her, but it was for the sake of his own reputation that he allowed her to continue to be Madam Hou.

Looking at the Zhao family by his feet, Zhenyuan felt disdain. If it wasn't for the Zhao family's downfall, his career as a official wouldn't have been so difficult.

He didn't think much of it and kicked Mrs Zhao away. Disdain filled his eyes as he said, "The Hou Mansion doesn't even have a place for you to talk. Get back into the house and don't embarrass yourself outside."

When Madame Zhao saw Marquis Zhen Yuan's reaction, she felt despondent in her heart. However, she wanted to help Gu Xiaoxiao plead for mercy. For a time, she couldn't leave, nor could she stay.

Gu Xiaoxiao stepped forward and helped Mrs Zhao up, saying fiercely, "Marquis Zhen Yuan, I think you're the one who's making a fool of yourself." Don't forget, your mother is still the respected Madam Hou. Your Zhang clan is just a concubine. "You'd better not bully your mother. Otherwise, if I go speak to the empress, she'll just pack her bags and scram back to the countryside!"

"You … "You …" Marquis Zhen Yuan was quite angry. He pointed at Gu Xiaoxiao and said, "You!" After failing to utter a single word for a long time, he could only shake his hand and leave.

Seeing that Marquis Yuan had left, Gu An An also followed in her footsteps. Gu Xiaoxiao helped the heartbroken Mrs Zhao back to the house and comforted her softly.

Mrs Zhao had always had fantasies about Marquis Zhen Yuan, thinking that the two of them had at least fallen in love before. No matter what, the Marquis Zhen Yuan would give the two of them a way out for the sake of the past.

But now it seemed like she'd gone stupid again, and had even almost implicated her own daughter.

That night was practically a sleepless night for the Zhao family. It was also because of that night that the Duke of Zhenyuan's ugly face made her feel that there had always been only benefits and no true love in this world.

In the past, the Marquis of Zhenyuan loved her because of her illustrious family background. Now that her family had fallen, Marquis Zhen treated her like a beggar.

Zhang family was the same. Even though she was young and beautiful, there were still days when people grew old.

On the other side.

The situation today truly made Gu An an angry man. There was no need to talk about anything else. She thought Gu Xiaoxiao really did have a man in her room, but it turned out that way.

Alas, he still had to listen to his father, so Gu Xiaoxiao wouldn't be able to explain himself.

Gu An An sighed, silently cursing himself for his stupidity.

Thinking about the wounds on her face, Gu An An An felt she had to tell her mother about it, so she followed Marquis Zhen back to his room.

Upon entering, Lady Zhang saw the bright red blush on Gu An An's face. Surprisingly, there was a palm imprint on her face, so she quickly asked, "What happened to your face?"

Marquis Zhen Yuan snorted coldly, "It was still that crazy girl who hit him. Look, is An An's face alright?"

When he thought of the scene just now, Marquis Zhen Yuan was still angry. This Gu Xiaoxiao was becoming more and more ignorant of her identity!

Gu An An sat on the side of the bed and buried her face in Mrs Zhao's bosom, as if she had suffered from a great deal of pain. She sobbed, "Mother, big sister's actions weren't serious. My face has become completely red."

Mrs Zhang rubbed Gu Anan's face. Gu Anan sucked in a breath of cold air and calmed down. Only then did she feel that the place where she was beaten up was burning with pain.

"An An, you should go back to your room to rest. We'll talk about this another day." Your father has been busy all day. You have to let him sleep. "

In front of the Zhenyuan Marquis, Zhang family had always been considerate. Even though Gu An An An had cried to the point of tears, Zhang family still wanted her to return first. They could talk about it another day.

The Marquis felt gratified, but just as he lay down, Mrs. Zhang looked worried. "Gu Xiaoxiao has already betrothed the king to the Qi King, so staying at the house of the Marquis isn't a big deal. If we continue to stay here, the crown prince will misunderstand us. Master Hou, what do you think? "

Zhang's intentions were clear. He wanted the Marquis of Zhenyuan to quickly chase Gu Xiao out of the manor.

It was not that he didn't want to. He only wanted to see Gu Xiaoxiao now. For some reason, Gu Xiaoxiao was no longer the servant she used to be.

"Sigh, but the empress didn't mention it at all, so I can't take the initiative to mention it to the emperor." "It's best not to be too anxious about this matter, lest others find out about it."

Now that the empress valued Gu Xiaoxiao so highly, even Marquis Yuan didn't dare to do anything to her. Mrs Zhang thought for a long time. If she could make Gu Xiaoxiao and Qi Wang eat their rice raw, even if she didn't want to marry the Qi King, she couldn't allow it.

The Zhang Clan was worried that Zhenyuan cared about Hou Mansion's reputation and was unwilling to do such a despicable thing. They carefully asked, "Master Hou, I have an idea, but I don't know if you would allow it."

Marquis Yuan's only wish was to drive away Gu Xiaoxiao. Every day he would see Gu Xiaoxiao moving dirt on his head, and he would feel like he was going to die from anger.

"What method?"

"We can find a chance to ask Gu Xiaoxiao out. At that time, Master Hou can think of a way to meet the Qi King by chance and let them cook the cooked rice. If Gu Xiaoxiao and the Qi King didn't intend to do that before, we would have given her a little 'Joyous Powder'. If 'Joyous Powder' is used, even the toughest girl would lose her virginity. "

When Marquis Zhen heard this, he felt that this really wasn't a good idea, and it was even a bit bad.

But after thinking about it, it seemed like this was the only way to get rid of Gu Xiao. Zhenyuan waved his hand and said, "Then I'll leave this matter to you. Don't give anyone any evidence."

When Zhang shi saw that Marquis Yuan had agreed, he was elated in his heart. She also knew that the Marquis of Zhenyuan despised such a despicable method. If it wasn't for Gu Xiaoxiao pushing the price even further, the duke wouldn't have allowed such a thing to happen.

Gu Xiaoxiao, I want to see if you can come back alive from the hands of the Qi King.

Didn't you dare to hit my daughter? If you have the ability, go beat up the Qi King.
