Chapter 40
"The prince shows love, and the daughter of the people dares to ask for something." Gu Wanning still saluted.

The regent withdrew his hand, and there was a hint of a smile in his eyes, "But I will grant whatever you ask for."

Gu Wanning's heart skipped a beat.

She was besieged by all sides of the Su family, and was schemed against by everyone in her husband's family. Instead of getting married, she became an enemy.

However, the Prince Regent, who had never met her before, said to her, "Anything you ask for will be granted."

How ironic, she couldn't help feeling a little sad, and then told the story.

The regent listened, his brows furrowed even more, and his pair of phoenix eyes stared at Master Su with mighty power.

"Lord Su, is it your standard to be an official by clinging to the powerful and harshly treating your daughter-in-law who has never committed any mistakes?" Will you cover up the powerful without hesitation?"

How can Mr. Su be able to bear this kind of crime, Mr. Su repeatedly accused him, "I don't dare, the affairs of the back house are all in the hands of my wife, and I don't know the number of my ministers."

Immediately, he quickly winked with Mrs. Su.

Mrs. Su also knows the seriousness of the matter. The Su family is prosperous and all are damaged. The critical moment is to keep Mr. Su's black hat.

So Mrs. Su hurriedly said: "There is some misunderstanding."

"Oh? What misunderstanding?" The regent's voice was low.

Mrs. Su hurriedly said: "The reason is that my Sanlang was plotted against outside and almost lost his life. He was rescued by Princess Jin's sister-in-law. How can I ask the regent, how can I not repay this life-saving grace?"

The regent seemed to chuckle slightly, "There are many ways to repay favors, and no one stipulates that you have to agree with your body. Even though Princess Kuangjin's righteous sister owes her kindness to Saburo of the Su family, sister Wanning doesn't owe her anything. And why do you have to sacrifice the interests of sister Wanning to repay the righteous sister of Princess Jin?"

"Furthermore, Saburo of your family already has a wife, yet he seduced Princess Jin's sister-in-law to become pregnant out of wedlock, and landed in such an embarrassing position. Is this repaying kindness or harming others?"

The regent questioned repeatedly, but did not give Mrs. Su a chance to explain.

"Sister Wanning, Zhenlie, your Saburo, seeing that he can't cling to Princess Jin, wants to frame sister Wanning. His intentions are really hateful."

Mr. Su seized the gap and hurriedly said: "My lord, you have to tell evidence in everything, you can't listen to one side and believe one side."

Gu Wanning immediately said: "Since you want to talk about the evidence, you might as well bring Pei Yu up and just ask."

The regent signaled to the guards around him to bring Pei Yu up.

However, a moment later, the guard in brocade clothes came alone, "My lord, Pei Yu committed suicide in fear of crime."

Mrs. Su breathed a sigh of relief. It's fine when someone dies, and there is no evidence for death.

Gu Wanning stood there in a daze, Pei Yu died?

It's not a deep feeling, but a living person who accompanied her for a few months died suddenly, and Gu Wanning felt lost in her heart.

She was not stupid, after knowing that Su Sanlang had bought Pei Yu, she secretly used the martial arts guard to hide in the cabinet, hoping to catch Pei Yu when he committed an attack, and then threaten him to confess Su Sanlang.

But Pei Yu's performance was taken aback.

On the surface, he wanted to be unfavorable to her, but he chose to pinpoint the point where everyone came over, and revealed Su Sanlang's sinister intentions in front of everyone.

He is not hurting her, but helping her.

He never had the slightest thought about her approaching.

After all, it was she who judged the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

But such a person is actually dead.

Obviously he was talking and laughing with her last night.

Gu Wanning was very sad in her heart, she looked at Madam Su, "It was you who killed people to silence them."

"In front of the regent, you have to speak more with a basis." Mrs. Su was complacent, but she didn't show it on her face. "I've been here all the time. Where did I get the time to do such a thing?"

However, the next moment, the guard in brocade clothes said again: "Unfortunately, when this subordinate just arrived, it happened that Pei Yu hadn't died yet, and he left his last words, saying that he would never confess to Saburo Su."

Madam Su's face froze.

Lord Su even hurriedly said: "It must be this scumbag talking nonsense, the prince must not believe him!"

However, the regent never even looked at Mr. Su, and said bluntly: "Su Zimo intends to frame Fa's wife, and his heart is to be punished. He ordered him to take him back to the prison and wait for her punishment."

"Master Su has no way to teach his children, and he is not strict in running the family, so he faced the wall at home and thought about it for several days."

"As for sister Wanning."

His voice was sudden and soft.

Gu Wanning raised her eyes, "The Su family is not kind to you, do you still want to stay in the Su family?"

She shook her head without hesitation.

"The courtier asks to make peace with Su Zimo."

This sentence was heard by Su Sanlang who came in a hurry.

Although Su Sanlang vowed to marry Gu Wanyue, he never thought of giving up Gu Wanning.

Not to mention this time, Gu Wanning took the initiative to bring up the divorce.

He thought about Gu Wanning's mention of reconciliation a few months ago.

It turned out that at that time, she was not joking.

This woman is cold by nature, and I'm afraid she never thought of living a good life with him.

Su Sanlang quickly knelt down, "This humble minister refuses."

Even if it is reconciliation, both parties must agree.

He didn't allow Gu Wanning to get out of her control, so could Gu Wanning be able to reconcile alone?
The regent didn't even look at him, but said to Gu Wanning in a gentle voice: "Su Zimo has sinister intentions, and if he becomes a husband and wife with such a person, I'm afraid that he will be on guard against him every day."

"You have suffered all these years."

This sentence only made Gu Wanning almost cry.

When she was reborn, no one knew the truth except herself.

This is a doomed lonely road.

But the regent, who had never met before, told her that you have suffered.

Gu Wanning felt a sense of being understood.

"Such a person is simply unworthy of being a human being." The regent said again: "What are you doing with Li, just divorce!"

"Pass down the king's decree, order Gu's Wanning to follow the decree to divorce her husband."

This simply shocked everyone's eyes.

In ancient times, men divorced their wives, but it was unheard of for women to divorce their husbands.

But today, the deviant regent actually ordered Gu Wanning to retire from her husband.

But who dares to say "no".

Su Sanlang dared, but in the next moment, he was taken directly to the prison.

Gu Wanning knelt down to accept the order, "Minister, thank you for your kindness."

The regent bent down to help him up, "Since that's the case, then sister Wanning is not considered to be from the Su family."

"Today, as my sister's elder brother, I will send my sister back with Brother Gu."

Gu Wanning was flattered, and hurriedly said: "The prince is busy with business."

"Not busy." The regent said: "I am going down to the south of the Yangtze River today to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the south of the Yangtze River. In the future, I will bother sister Wanning a lot to lead me to look around."

Gu Wanning said: "This is natural."

At this time, the guards in brocade clothes were leading Su Ruanruan over.

Su Ruanruan didn't know what happened ahead, so she just instinctively ran to Gu Wanning.

Gu Wanning lamented the thoughtfulness of the regent, hugged Su Ruanruan, and returned to Gu's house together.
