The moment the man stretched out his hand to grab her, Lan Ke felt as if her body was restrained by something, and then a terrible suction force came, trying to pull her away.
She subconsciously held Jun Tianheng's hand tightly.
Suddenly, another cold snort was heard. Yan Nantian waved his sleeves and neutralized Gu Ruoshan's trick. At the same time, he said disdainfully: "Gu Ruoshan, I think you are going backwards as you grow older. What's the point of bullying a little girl? Come and fight me if you have the guts!"
Gu Ruoshan was furious: "Yan Nantian! Can you keep your mouth shut? Who are you?"
Yan Nanshan sneered disdainfully: "Whoever answers will be the boss!"
"Yan Nantian! You are too arrogant!"
"I am arrogant. Do you not accept it? If you don't accept it, come and fight me. Do you think I am afraid of you?"
The two were about to quarrel, but Lan Ke suddenly interrupted and said, "Senior Yan, the real Gu Yuying is standing next to Lin Xuan right now. You might as well ask her to come out and confront him. The eldest prince is a noble man, and we can't let him suffer an unjust accusation."
When Gu Ruoshan saw Lan Ke was targeting Gu Yuying again, he immediately became angry and was about to slap her with his hand: "Bitch, you're looking for death!"
Lan Ke was not afraid of him at all, and sarcastically said, "Senior Gu, are you guilty and angry?"
Yan Nantian really took action, not only blocking Gu Ruoshan's attack, but also grabbing Gu Yuying and putting her on the altar as he said.
With a "ripping" sound, Gu Yuying's clothes burst open instantly, revealing the straps on her chest and her snow-white skin.
At the same time, the mask on her face broke into pieces and fell off, revealing Gu Yuying's true face.
"Yan Nantian, how dare you!" Gu Ruoshan was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot. He reached out and snatched Gu Yuying back.
Gu Heng took it, took off his clothes and wrapped them around Gu Yuying, shaking with anger: "Luo'er, come back!"
Gu Yuying had already embarrassed herself, and he didn't want Gu Yurou to be embarrassed again.
Yan Nantian did not stop Gu Ruoshan. Although he looked down upon Gu Yuying's behavior, Gu Yuying was, after all, a young lady from aristocratic family, the pride of the Gu family. He couldn't let her stand naked on the altar all the time.
Tearing off her disguise would be enough to slap the Gu family in the face. If she went too far, Gu Ruoshan might just start a war.
He was not afraid of Gu Ruoshan, but if the old man really went crazy, he might not be able to protect his precious grandson Jun Tianheng and his granddaughter-in-law Lan Ke who was to his liking.
"Gu Ruoshan, your granddaughter is really not simple. Not only did the elder one find someone to marry her in her place, but she also dressed up as a man and came to watch the fun openly. The younger one came here to spit bloody words, slandering my granddaughter-in-law for harming your eldest granddaughter.
If my grandson's wife hadn't been smart and I hadn't arrived quickly, wouldn't my darling grandson and his wife have been terribly bullied by you, an old thing
You have the nerve to slander my granddaughter after she did such a shameful thing. Do you think I am dead?"
Gu Ruoshan was furious, but he really didn't care about this matter. If Gu Yuying didn't come to watch the fun, he could still say that Gu Yuying was harmed by Lan Ke.
But this damn girl not only came here openly, but was also exposed in public. Even if she wanted to put the blame on Lan Ke, it would be untenable.
He could only avoid the main point and turn the tables, saying, "Even if Ying'er is confused, you shouldn't bully a little girl like a big girl!"
Yan Nantian was not someone to be trifled with. "Tsk, she herself refused to admit it. If I don't strip her clothes, how can I prove that she is Gu Yuying? Otherwise, how can I clear the injustice for my precious grandson if I don't prove her identity?"
Gu Ruoshan knew he was in the wrong, so he could only glare at Gu Yuying, then stared at Lan Ke and said maliciously, "Yan Nantian, instead of picking on Ying'er, you might as well ask your cheap granddaughter-in-law. This woman's origins are unknown, and I'm afraid she has big plans."
When Lan Ke heard that the old man was targeting her again, she immediately said, "Senior Gu, you are joking. I married from the Gu family, and the one who forced me to marry was your granddaughter. You said that my origins are unknown, so you might as well ask her where I came from."
Gu Ruoshan had long regarded Lan Ke as a thorn in his side, wishing he could slap her to death. Seeing that she dared to refute him, he immediately shouted angrily, "How dare you! Who are you? Do you have the right to speak here?"
"Since Senior Gu asked this, I guess the people in the Gu family are worthless. I am the person involved. First, I was forced to marry by your eldest granddaughter, and then I was slandered by your second granddaughter. Don't you think I can even speak for myself? The Gu family is indeed a tyrant from the same lineage."
"What a sharp-tongued girl! My Gu family is one of the four great families, how can you slander it?"
"Senior Gu knows whether it is slander or not. But it doesn't matter if Senior Gu doesn't admit it, I have the evidence anyway." Lan Ke smiled, but her eyes were as sharp as a knife as she looked at Gu Ruoshan, "Since Gu Yuying is unwilling to marry the eldest prince, shouldn't she return the betrothal gifts? It's a bit too much to accept the betrothal gifts and then find someone to marry in her place."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was in an uproar again.
According to the customs of the time, most of the betrothal gifts given by the man would be given as dowry to the woman, even if not all of it, at least part of it. In addition, the woman's family would also try to prepare a good dowry for her to show their importance to the marriage.
The Gu family is one of the four major families, and Gu Yuying is the proud daughter of the Gu family. In order to marry her, the royal family gave a very generous betrothal gift.
Not only did Gu Yuying not want to get married, she also found someone to marry on her behalf and even took possession of the betrothal gifts. This is simply too shameful!
Unfortunately, Gu Yuluo didn't know the inside story. When she heard about the betrothal gift, she said angrily, "How dare you mention the betrothal gift? If you have the guts, return the dowry as well! Are you a fake, worthy of the Gu family's dowry?"
"If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten that I really couldn't afford the Gu family's dowry. It just so happens that the dowry hasn't been put into storage yet, so I'll take it out now for people to see how generous the Gu family is!"
After she finished speaking, she looked at Jun Tianheng. Jun Tianheng nodded to the leader of the guards, and that man immediately took the order and left, carrying out all the dowry sent by the Gu family.
There were several rows of large red and gold-painted boxes, and the total of 180 dowries looked extremely generous.
Everyone present subconsciously widened their eyes, curious about what kind of dowry the Gu family had given.
"Open the box!" As soon as Lan Ke opened her mouth, the guards were about to break the lock and open the box.
"Stop!" Gu Yuying suddenly screamed at this time, "This is the Gu family's dowry. Who allowed you to open the box? No one is allowed to open it!"
“Hmph, I want to see what good stuff is in these boxes!” Yan Nantian shouted angrily, and slapped his hand downwards, and the copper lock on the box broke instantly.
The next moment, all the boxes were opened, revealing the so-called dowry inside.
Everyone present immediately widened their eyes, unable to believe that what they saw was real.
Are those boxes of stone rags really the Gu family’s dowry
Gu Ruoshan and Gu Heng's faces turned pale in an instant. Gu Yuying buried her head tightly, wishing she could hide herself.
