Feeling the fiery gazes coming from all directions, Gu Ruoshan felt angry and disappointed. He never expected that his beloved granddaughter, whom he always loved, would do such a stupid thing!
It was clearly agreed upon that this was just a fake marriage and there was no need to make it a fait accompli. Jun Tianheng was a loser, wouldn't it be easy to control him
It would have been fine if she didn't want to get married, but she actually hid it from everyone and used someone else's trick to replace someone else!
It would be fine if she could really control the counterfeit, but she found the counterfeit from somewhere and didn't even know the other party's background, yet she dared to let someone marry on her behalf!
Not only was she bitten back at, but even her dowry was fake, and it was exposed in public!
Gu Ruoshan felt that those fiery gazes were like countless slaps on his face, causing his cheeks to hurt.
From the time he became famous until now, he has never been so embarrassed!
His face twisted for a long time before Gu Ruoshan found his voice again: "These dowries..."
Before he could finish, Yan Nantian, who had long disliked him, interrupted him rudely: "Old Ghost Gu, you are not saying that these dowries were replaced by my grandson's wife, are you? She is not responsible for this!
The dowry was brought from the Gu family. If you say that it was done by my grandson's wife, do you think anyone would believe it? Could it be that all the people in your Gu family who guard the warehouse have become blind and deaf?"
Gu Ruoshan's face trembled when he heard this, knowing that he could not shirk responsibility. He knew that it was Gu Yuying who did it, but he could never admit it.
He has lost face enough today, there is absolutely no reason for him to slap himself in the face.
So he said firmly: "This matter is indeed a bit strange. When I return, I will definitely investigate it thoroughly to see who did it!"
At this point, he suddenly shouted, "Someone! Carry the things back!"
Naturally, he looked down upon these so-called dowries, but he could not let them be disgraced in public, so he could only take them back and destroy them.
As soon as he shouted, the Gu family guards suddenly appeared and wanted to carry the dowry box back.
Yan Nantian snorted disdainfully: "Wait! You can't take these things away. If you want to take them away, use the betrothal gifts in exchange!"
In order to show their importance to this marriage, especially to Gu Yuying, the royal family gave a very generous betrothal gift, many of which were added by Yan Nantian, and they were all rare and good things!
Since Gu Yuying refuses to marry, the betrothal gift must be returned. The Gu family must not even think about embezzling it!
When Gu Ruoshan thought of the betrothal gifts, he felt a pang of pain in his heart. He really couldn't bear to part with them. But now, in front of everyone, he couldn't refuse.
The Gu family has already lost face and cannot continue to embarrass themselves.
Gu Ruoshan suppressed his resentment and reluctance with difficulty, and opened his mouth to agree. Unexpectedly, at this moment, Gu Yuluo, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said: "Brother Tianheng, I am willing to marry you in my sister's place!"
As soon as these words came out, Gu Ruoshan and Gu Heng's eyes lit up.
Although Gu Yuluo was not bad, she was far inferior to the talented Gu Yuying. If she were to marry Jun Tianheng in place of Gu Yuying, the betrothal gifts would naturally not have to be returned, and at most a good dowry would be given.
They both thought this was a good idea, so without waiting for Jun Tianheng to refuse, Gu Ruoshan said forcefully: "Luo'er is right, Tianheng, what do you think? Luo'er loves you wholeheartedly and has quite good talent. It's not a disgrace for her to marry you.
I think His Majesty would be happy to see this happen. This woman's origins are unknown, and her appearance at such a coincidence, I'm afraid she has bad intentions. Tianheng, you must not be fooled by her. "
If Yan Nantian hadn't been there, he would have immediately forced Jun Tianheng to agree. However, even so, his words were no different from coercion.
In his opinion, although Jun Tianheng was the eldest prince, he was just a useless person who couldn't practice. Being able to marry Gu Yuluo was already a face given by the Gu family to the royal family. He should be overjoyed and there was absolutely no reason to refuse.
Unfortunately, he misjudged Jun Tianheng.
Jun Tianheng didn't even look at Gu Yuluo, but looked at Gu Ruoshan without showing any weakness, and refused without thinking: "Senior Gu, you are joking. I have already married a wife and read the oath to the gods and Buddhas. How can I regret it halfway?"
Yan Nanshan was even more impolite and laughed directly, "Gu Ruoshan, do you still have any shame, old man
Your eldest granddaughter looks down on my precious grandson and refuses to marry her, so you want my precious grandson to settle for your second best and marry your granddaughter. What a wishful thinking!
Could it be that my precious grandson can only marry a woman from your Gu family? Is there no other woman in the world except your Gu family? "
Gu Ruoshan's face instantly turned black as he was scolded by him: "Yan Nantian, you are so ungrateful! I have good intentions!
This woman's origins are unknown, who knows who sent her as a spy? Do you really want your precious grandson to marry her? Aren't you afraid that your precious grandson will be swallowed up by her?"
Lan Ke suddenly laughed and looked at Gu Ruoshan sarcastically. This old man slandered her all the time. If she didn't speak up, she would be regarded as dumb!
"So, Senior Gu thinks Gu Yuluo is better than me?"
Gu Ruoshan sneered disdainfully: "Need I say that? Who are you? Are you worthy of being compared to my granddaughter?"
Lan Ke was not afraid of him. She would not cry until she saw him in the coffin. She reached her right hand into her wide sleeves and when she took it out, there was a spherical transparent crystal in her palm.
Although the crystal was transparent, countless lights and shadows flowed on its surface, and one could see individual figures.
Yan Nantian was obviously very knowledgeable. He took one look and exclaimed, "Is this a photo stone? Girl, how come you have this thing in your hand?"
"It's just a coincidence." Lan Ke's attitude was casual, but what he said was completely different. "Since I was caught by Gu Yuying, I have been feeling uneasy, so I used this photo stone in my hand to record some things.
I'm sure everyone present is very curious about why I would marry Jun Tianheng instead of Gu Yuying. Now I'll show you what's going on! Senior Gu, you must watch carefully and don't blink! "
After saying that, she activated the Shadow Stone, and a projection instantly appeared in the air.
This projection is three-dimensional and looks just like the real thing.
The scene begins with Lan Ke lying on the bed pretending to sleep, and Gu Yuying brings Biyun in to see if she is awake. Whether it is Gu Yuying's arrogance, Biyun's unreasonableness, Gu Yuluo's cruelty, or Hongxiu's indifference, all are recorded by the photo stone, including every word they said.
The scene did not end until Lan Ke got on the chariot and left Gu's house.
Now, everyone present looked at Gu Ruoshan with even more fiery eyes.
Yan Nantian even laughed directly, "Gu Ruoshan, is this your precious granddaughter that you are so proud of?"
