Chapter 32 Scandal
"You don't like the one I chose for you..."

Gu Zhao knew that Jiang was talking about his cousin Jiang Hanzhu. If he didn't know her thoughts, that would be fine. Now that he knew, he couldn't ruin the marriage.

"Why does mother always tease her son about this matter!" Gu Zhao looked a little confused, but in Jiang's place, he was always well-behaved and obedient.

Chen Jue on the side looked at his nose, his nose and his heart, but did not interrupt. Lest Jiang bring the topic to himself.

Jiang and Chen Jue’s biological mothers have been close friends since childhood.

Originally, after Chen Jue's biological mother died of illness, the Gu family and the Chen family lost contact. Chen Jue was always looked after by the empress and became a famous little bully in Beijing.

Gu Zhao was only ten years old at that time. He was practicing martial arts with his uncle. He also had a character that was not afraid of anything.

Chen Jue spoke poorly at the palace banquet and was beaten to the ground by Gu Zhao. No one tried to persuade Chen Jue to let go.

If you cause a palace banquet, you will be punished.

The queen hugged Chen Jue and cried about his difficulties, saying that he had not had a mother since he was a child, and if he had a stepmother, he would have a stepfather, and no one in the family was sincere to him.

Jiang just hugged Gu Zhao and cried silently without saying a word.

The emperor was in trouble for a while.

In the end, Chen Jue bowed his head and admitted his mistake. Afterwards, he secretly told his aunt that he wanted to be friends with Gu Zhao, saying that he was the only one in the world who dared to resist him. He was a man, different from those who only knew how to flatter. This is the true friend he is looking for.

At first, Gu Zhao looked down upon this coward who only knew how to bully others. Later, after being lectured by his mother and the Queen in turn, he gradually took on the responsibility of disciplining Chen Jue.

After going back and forth, the two became friends for so many years, and there was always a room belonging to Chen Jue in Gu Zhao's yard.

"Mom, don't talk about this. A few days ago, Chen Jue and I went to visit Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing. It was indeed exactly what the manager said, and we were affected by disasters to varying degrees."

"You can make the decision on this matter. My dowry will belong to you and Xiao'er from now on."

"I just wanted to ask why Xiao'er didn't come to greet you today."

"He came early in the morning, but he had to go to the school today. He got up a little late, so he had breakfast in his room."

"Are you late again?" Gu Zhao's eyes looked more like he was watching a show: "I'm afraid I'll get punished again."

"As an elder brother, you still laugh at him... and you don't know how to dissuade him."

"Xiao'er is good like this."

After finishing the meal, Mr. Jiang also used some more and wanted to go for a walk.

So Gu Zhao and Chen Jue accompanied him.

Gu Zhao always kept his word and asked Chen Jue to practice the horse stance in Jiang's yard.

Jiang had also practiced martial arts since he was a child, but he suffered severe labor hemorrhage when giving birth to Gu Xiao. He was finally saved, but only half of his life was left.

Now I can see Chen Jue striding forward, smiling broadly, and even demonstrating.

"Auntie, it's okay if you don't help me plead for mercy. How can you still laugh at me?"

After a while of laughter, someone from Chen Jue’s family came to invite him and asked him to go back.

The last thing he wanted to go back to was his home, and he looked bad at the moment.

Jiang said with relief: "No matter what, you have to face it. When the Queen chooses a good marriage for you in the future, you can take your wife and live in separate houses... In short, be patient for now and don't get along with her." Your stepmother got into a fight."

Chen Jue sniffed and nodded in agreement.

"Mother, I'll take Chen Jue back." "Okay, you have a good talk with Mr. Chen and let him advise Mr. Lu so that the situation doesn't get too ugly."

The two rode horses and got off their horses when they approached the entrance of the alley. Chen Jue hesitated and didn't want to go in.

Gu Zhao pulled him into a nearby tea shop and said, "Relax."

"Brother Qianjun, do you know what I'm worried about?"

Gu Zhao nodded and said, "Mother heard from others that the Lu family is still around, and you have settled on her niece."

"If she doesn't know how to restrain herself, the Queen will definitely issue an edict to reprimand her." Gu Zhao poured him a cup of tea and said, "Be careful and don't let this woman use any tricks."

"What can she do to me?"

Every time this matter is brought up, Chen Jue acts like a cockfighter.

Gu Zhao rubbed his forehead and said, "If she drugged you and made you and her niece cook, would you still be able to refuse to marry her?"

Chen Jue was shocked for a moment, but felt that this was something his stepmother could do, so he secretly wrote it down.

Chen Jue returned to his yard. When Chen Houye sent Gu Zhao out, Gu Zhao relayed Jiang's intention: "After all, Chen Jue grew up under the Queen's watch. Although it is said that marriage matters are decided by the parents, but The empress empress is responsible for the world and she can manage it."

"If Mrs. Lu does something too ugly, I'm afraid everyone will lose face."

Chen Houye's face suddenly became ugly, but he didn't say anything.

Within a few days, the queen arranged for the Lu family's daughter to marry, and she decided to marry far away, which was regarded as angering the Lu family.

Chen Jue was also assigned two masters as bodyguards, and he suddenly became the talk of the town.

But it was soon overshadowed by Liang Yuqi's good-mannered behavior.

After all, Chen Jue's status is too prominent, and he is afraid that talking too much will bring trouble to himself.

The Liang Mansion is indeed different. It is just a run-down house with some improvement. Even if ordinary people want to step on it, they can't control it.

Lin Miaofu heard about this at home and felt very confused, but also very relieved.

Although she will be scolded by others, it is Liang Yuqi who is scolded the most.

"...Marriage fraud, this word is really good."

"Madam, I heard that Aunt Wan and Mr. Hou had a quarrel." Xiaolian gloated: "Master Hou ran to the study in anger. Neither of them had much to eat."

"Okay, don't worry about them anymore." Lin Miaofu was changing her clothes and planning to go out. She had to see her brother again and find out who was spreading such rumors behind his back. Maybe she could take advantage of this trend to spread the rumors. Make arrangements for your marriage with him as soon as possible.

As for this pair of scumbag men and bitches, let them have their own troubles. It would be best if they make it so indistinguishable that they won't get in the way of themselves.

The concierge only recorded Lin Miaofu's departure and did not tell the other owners of the house.

The child looked at the steward who was older than him with some embarrassment and said, "Are you really not going to tell Mr. Marquis?"

"The Marquis and Aunt Wan are having a bad temper. If we go to find the Marquis now, won't it make him even more angry?" The steward said with a meaningful smile: "Our wife has paid for this month's monthly payment out of her own pocket. Next time Yue still doesn’t know what’s going on…”

The child sighed after hearing this and said, "It was so good when Madam was the housekeeper in the past. Rewards would come down every three or five days. I was lucky if I didn't deduct the monthly payment. Aunt Wan also told my grandmother that she was getting older. When I was raised proudly..."

"No, everyone over fifty has received a notice from Aunt Wan. I don't know how many more days I can work."
