Prime Minister Gu is just worried now that if he makes this matter a big deal, Shen Zhongbai will take action on him first.
"If Prime Minister Gu had taken such an attitude earlier, I would naturally not have told the emperor about this matter. But what Gu Cheng wanted to do last time really made it impossible for me to believe that Gu Cheng showed sincerity in handling this matter. matter, so for the sake of fairness, this website went to the palace to find the emperor to come forward to resolve this matter. However, in fact, it was because of our actions that Prime Minister Gu was willing to resolve this matter. No. ?"
When Gu Linjiang wanted to perfunctory, Shen Qianshan was already prepared to make the whole thing a big deal. As for the current situation, he had indeed expected it. After all, as long as Shen Zhongbai wanted to be on the throne Sit calmly and don't let things like this disturb Chao Gang.
"It's true, I originally wanted to punish you with a small punishment, but I didn't expect that it would cause such a big trouble to the prince. So now, I will definitely handle this matter properly in accordance with the prince's request. …”
To be honest, if Ye hadn't personally admitted this matter, he would never have been in such a situation, but he didn't expect that Shen Qianshan would directly choose to deal with the matter in this way.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely give you a good explanation for this matter."
At this time, how could Gu Linjiang dare not lower his attitude
Feixue was originally Gu Zhihua's maid. After Gu Qiang left the palace, she returned directly to Gu Zhihua. Gu Zhihua was not suspicious of her behavior, but Feixue already knew it. After Liu Shuang was executed by Shen Zhongbai, it was natural to move as far away from Gu Qiang as possible, but he did not expect that after following Gu Zhihua, he would see Gu Qiang.
"Sir, I just went to the second lady's room, but did not see the second lady. His maid also said that the second lady has not returned to the room." The housekeeper hurriedly came back to report that in this cold winter, his forehead He was actually sweating from exhaustion. Now he couldn't find the second lady, and the atmosphere in the entire main hall seemed to have become more tense, which made him even more confused about what he should do now.
Shen Qianshan smiled softly, "Can't find it? Doesn't the second lady always stay here?"
As soon as Shen Qianshan said this, everyone in the hall, including Gu Qiang, was stunned. After all, Gu Zhihua was really well hidden. There was no line drawing at all. Gu Zhihua was not He didn't show up, but just hid in this place.
"What do you mean? Is the second sister eavesdropping on our conversation?" Gu Qiang's tone was full of disdain, "I didn't expect that the fourth sister, regardless of her reputation as a lady, drugged her brother-in-law to seduce her, and the second sister turned out to be a Have you listened to the market woman in the corner?"
Gu Qiang had not yet thought about how she should tell Gu Zhiyao's matter directly, but she did not think of it. In the end, Gu Zhihua gave her this opportunity.
"What? Zhiyao..." Gu Linjiang probably never thought that his daughter would cause such a big trouble for him in just a few days. Gu Linjiang always thought that his eldest daughter She has a tough personality. The second daughter is considered to be the better one and is obedient, but she always does some things that do not overestimate her abilities. Gu Zhiyan is quite law-abiding, but it is a pity that she is too soft-hearted and is of no great use. However, she did not expect that she would always let herself be the most The fourth child, who was most at ease, actually caused such a big trouble for him.
"Yes, father, you heard me right. Your fourth daughter, Gu Zhiyao, was so bold as to seduce her brother-in-law in the Ninth Prince's Mansion. Is she really the good daughter you called her?" Gu Qiang directly hit Gu Linjiang's sore spot. , which made Gu Zhihua on the side a little embarrassed. After all, he was so close to Shen Zhongbai in the past, and finally became the person around Shen Zhongbai. But for him, after all, Gu Qiang gave up on Shen Zhongbai, and now Shen Qian Shan, and he were very affectionate, but it was really embarrassing for Gu Zhiyao to do this.
When he mentioned this matter, Shen Qianshan felt a little sorry for Gu Qiang, but after hearing Gu Qiang say that he was drugged that day, he felt more or less comfortable, "Prime Minister Gu, if I hadn't If your guess is wrong, you should be the one who arranged Miss Gu Si to come to my palace. If this is the case, did you also give orders for Miss Gu Si to drug me?"
Gu Linjiang's arrangement was clearly understood now. He was almost unable to react. The blows came one after another. Even if he had enough brains, he couldn't react at all. What on earth happened
"My lord, you must have misunderstood. Zhiyao is still young and will always do impulsive things. Aren't we discussing the matter of Qian'er earlier? In a few days, I will pick Zhiyao up. When he comes back, he must be strictly disciplined and will never let something like this happen again."
When Gu Qiang heard this, her heart ached for no reason. To be honest, as a former member of this family, why had she never been treated like this? It was strange that if she and Gu Zhiyao were in the same position today, they would be She went to seduce Shen Zhongbai, what would Gu Linjiang, an old fox, do? Gu Qiang didn't dare to think about what would happen...
"Yes, since everyone has gathered together, let's discuss the eldest sister's matter first. As for the fourth sister's matter, we will definitely handle it well." Gu Zhihua's attitude also softened. After all, This time, Shen Zhongbai was furious with him. Shen Zhongbai had lost a lot of face in front of the important officials in the court. If Gu Qiang refused to give up this time and went on to bring Gu Zhiyao's matter to the court, It's not certain how angry Shen Zhongbai will be, nor how he will deal with his father next time.
For the sake of Gu Linjiang and himself, Gu Zhihua now decided to put down his figure temporarily and try to make himself a little more modest, so as not to let Shen Qianshan and Gu Qiang catch anything. After all, this time, Whether he can return to the palace depends on whether today's matter is handled to Shen Qianshan's satisfaction.
"In that case, I will not continue to argue with Prime Minister Gu. Back to the topic, Prime Minister Gu should also understand that the two of us were not very satisfied with Prime Minister Gu's approach of small punishments and large warnings last time, so now , Should we reconsider how to solve this matter?" Shen Qianshan did not want to continue talking about this matter. After all, this matter is closely related to himself. If there is nothing wrong with this thing, I'm afraid I can't explain it even more clearly to Gu Qiang. If Prime Minister Gu uses the excuse that he has ruined Gu Zhiyao's reputation and wants to let him take Gu Zhiyao as his concubine, the relationship between him and Qian'er may be possible. It will be worse.
"Father, if that's the case, can you release your mother first?" Gu Zhihua was not worried about Ye, after all, she was his biological mother, but this time, she really didn't have any concerns about what she did. , how can you get carried away and not pay attention to the situation over there? Both herself and her were in a hurry. Fortunately, this time Shen Qianshan and Shen Zhongbai requested the Prime Minister's Mansion to resolve the matter. Otherwise, it would most likely make the matter even bigger.
Gu Linjiang thought for a moment, then looked back at Shen Qianshan and Gu Qiang who were standing aside, and nodded slightly, "Butler, let's go and release Mrs. Side first."
Although it was said that they were only confined in the house, it was still a huge blow to the Ye family. The Lin family did not allow anyone to tell him what was going on outside, and they were worried all day about how things were going outside. However, even if it was the meal that the servants brought to her, he would only take a few bites hastily, and his whole body would look haggard.
After a long time, Mrs. Ye came over under the leadership of the housekeeper. Gu Qiang did not expect that it would become like this in just a few days. She originally thought that Gu Linjiang would not be able to bear to treat Mrs. Ye. There was no serious punishment, but I didn't expect that a small grounding would make Ye Shi so embarrassed.
Seeing this, Gu Linjiang pretended to sigh, "Oh, if I had known this, why did I do it in the first place? It seems that you have sincerely regretted it. Today we will resolve this matter and you can lift the grounding as soon as possible. "
Gu Qiang still had a trace of pity for Mrs. Ye, but she didn't expect that the person in front of her would give them both a hard look when they passed by. Gu Qiang's heart was alarmed, and she was slightly worried The little bit of compassion he had had disappeared long ago. Sure enough, any words about serious reflection were just for others to listen to.
"But I think if you make such a big mistake and just be grounded, then in the future the servants of the Prime Minister's Mansion will also do some wrong things, and then they will just be grounded?" Gu Qiang's tone It was sour. After Ye Shi glanced at her just now, Gu Qiang knew in her heart that even if Ye Shi could temporarily restrain herself this time, it didn't mean that she would stop in the future. It seems that this time, Ye will definitely not be let go so easily. As for all this, Ye found it himself!
"Sister, what do you mean?" Gu Zhihua had already seen his mother in such a mess, and when he heard Gu Qiang's words, he became even more angry.
