Chapter 26 The Sincere Calculation

There was a scramble in the garden, some people cared about the situation, and naturally some people gloated at their misfortune.

Gu Mingzhu hid her face and fled, bumping into a wall in a hurry, she raised her head with tears in her eyes.

Xu Jue frowned: "Why are you crying?"

Gu Mingzhu couldn't control her tears, her eyes were sour and red, realizing that she was in a mess at this time, she turned her head and ran away.

Xu Jue clenched his hands into fists, and his expression was hidden in the darkness. He stood on the spot, paused for a moment, and was about to catch up, when Gu Xiurong's voice came from behind: "Ah Jue!"

Xu Jue paused, and Gu Xiurong came up to him, and said, "A Jue, can you see my sister?"

Xu Jue pointed in a direction, and grabbed Gu Xiurong who was about to leave: "What happened?"

Gu Xiurong pulled him along and said, "Young Yunzhao and Qi Feiyan are on the same bed! I'm afraid Mingzhu won't think about it!"

Xu Jue was caught by him and staggered, his eyes were dim and clear: "What you said is true?!"

Gu Xiurong didn't notice that Xu Jue's tone was wrong, and said, "I can still lie to you!"

"Go and find them separately!"

At this moment, Gu Mingzhu, who was hiding in the servant's room, was obediently sitting on a chair.

Ah San squatted in front of her, held up a cotton cloth, and wiped it carefully for her, with a helpless tone: "Miss, I have already said that this medicine is very powerful, why did you wipe it so much?"

While shedding tears, Gu Mingzhu said helplessly, "It's an emergency, so I didn't pay attention to the dosage."

Ah San sighed and applied the plaster on her, but in this short period of time, Gu Mingzhu had already shed too many tears, her eyes were red and swollen, she looked like a wronged rabbit, she really wanted to be comforted and pitied.

But Ah San remained motionless, because the instigator tonight was Gu Mingzhu.

After a while, Ah San said, "Miss, what's next?"

Gu Mingzhu sipped her tea, tilted her head and thought for a while: "Then you will be devastated and commit suicide."

Ah San was stunned, "Would you demean yourself too much?"

"If not, how do you withdraw?"

Ah San was silent, lowered her hands and said, "Young one, this is to sue the master."

I'm afraid there will be no peace tonight.

As soon as Ah San left, the room quickly fell silent. Gu Mingzhu was drinking tea slowly, and the door was pushed open.

She thought it was Ah San who had left and returned, so she raised her head and said, "Why..."

The voice stopped abruptly.

"why you?"

Wu Yue was out of breath, his brow was sweating profusely from running around: "I just...arrived...and heard about Yun Zhao."

Wu Yue took a deep breath: "You wait for me to beat him to death now!"

"Come back!" Gu Mingzhu stopped him: "He is now an official of the imperial court. If he beats an official, he will go to jail!"

Wu Yue said angrily: "Then what should we do? Let him bully you like this? Then Qi Feiyan is so shameless! The Qi family is completely humiliated this time!"

Gu Mingzhu looked into a pair of red and swollen eyes: "Then what should I do?"

Wu Yue's scalp felt numb when he met her lovely and pitiful eyes.He has been used to seeing Gu Mingzhu's arrogant appearance since he was a child, and relying on his family background, almost no one in Gusu City dared to provoke her. Now such aggrieved appearance made him feel frustrated for no reason.

Wu Yue said: "You... If you really like Yun Zhao, then you don't want to call off the engagement. It's just that I heard a few quarrels just now. You marry to be your regular wife, and Qi Feiyan wants to enter the mansion to be your concubine."

Gu Mingzhu said: "Of course I don't want to."

Wu Yue hesitated, and said for a moment: "When I was looking for you, I was thinking, Mingzhu, you are arrogant, I guess you will definitely not agree."

Who doesn't know her feelings for Yun Zhao all these years?

I'm afraid she will be sad for a long time because of this matter.

Gu Mingzhu couldn't help smiling because of Wu Yue's concern, but with such eyes, it was a bit funny: "How do you know I'm here?"

Wu Yue said: "I don't know you yet, I heard that a servant was brought back from Xiangbei, and you would grab something good as soon as you saw it, I guess you must be here."

"All right, all right, you still understand me."

Seeing that she didn't look too sad, Wu Yue sat down and said, "Now that things have happened, what do you think?"

Gu Mingzhu said: "Retire the engagement."

"break off an engagement?"

"break off an engagement!"

Two voices sounded one after the other.

The two looked towards the door, it was Gu Xiurong and Xu Jue.

Gu Xiurong stepped inside, and said sternly: "It's not that my sister can't get married! If something like this happens, you must not be wronged!"

Gu Mingzhu hung her head and said nothing.

He frowned, glanced at Wu Yue, his eyes fell on Gu Mingzhu, and said: "What are you doing with your head down? My parents and I love you so much, not to make you feel wronged! Tell me, do you still want to marry this kiss?"

Gu Mingzhu looked up: "No knot."

Gu Xiurong's eyes froze: "Then we won't tie up! There are so many good men in Gusu, we can find whoever you like! If it doesn't work, Wu Yue is also good. You two grew up together and know everything. If he dares to mess around , I broke his leg!"

Both Gu Mingzhu and Wu Yue froze.

Gu Mingzhu said anxiously: "Brother, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Wu Yue also felt like facing a big enemy: "Brother Xiurong, you can't mess up your mandarin ducks! Mingzhu and I are brothers and sisters, so don't mess around!"

Xu Jue coughed: "Xiu Rong, let's talk about the most important thing first."

Right here, Gu Ruyan's voice came from outside the house: "Pearl..."

Gu Ruyan's face was full of anxiety, and the people in the room didn't seem to notice. Seeing Gu Mingzhu sitting quietly, "It's fine as long as you're fine...don't overthink it! You're going to die, how will your mother and I live!"

Gu Mingzhu let him hold her, feeling sore in her heart, and said, "Father, I'm fine."

Gu Xiurong said: "Father, our Gu family doesn't want this marriage! Retire! Mingzhu also agrees."

Gu Ruyan doesn't care what the third rank is or not, as long as Gu Mingzhu nods, it will be fine: "Since Mingzhu wants to retire, then we will retire, and immediately write a divorce letter to him!"

Gu Ruyan looked down at his daughter: "Don't do stupid things again, your mother is so mad."

Although Gu Mingzhu knew that there would be a lot of disturbances in retiring, it just caused the family members to worry and feel guilty, and said: "I know."

It was almost dawn, and no one in the Gu family fell asleep.

Gu Xiurong personally drew up a divorce letter for Yun Zhao to sign, but he disagreed and said he wanted to see Gu Mingzhu.

At that time, Gu Mingzhu was talking to Wu Yue.

"I was going to leave after I greeted you last night, but because of the delay, I'm leaving soon."

The relatives of the Wu family found a job for Wu Yue and wanted Wu Yue to experience it.

Gu Mingzhu said: "Is it a military camp?"

Wu Yue said: "Yes, it's just an idle civilian job, after all, it's in the military camp, maybe one day it will be able to go to the battlefield."

Wu Yue thought for a while, and then said: "I've been away for a year, and Yue Yan wrote to me saying that he wanted to work under your command, and I agreed."

Gu Mingzhu respected his choice and said, "Okay, then I'll wait for your good news."

As soon as Wu Yue left, someone came to report that Yun Zhao wanted to see Gu Mingzhu.

Gu Mingzhu went to the front hall.
