Chapter 9 Gift from a Noble
"Miss, you can't go out. The gate of the mansion is guarded by the palace soldiers. No one can go out without the old marquis's permission."
Chunlan's voice was a little choked. When she came back just now, she had been troubled by the palace guards at the door. At that time, she wanted to go directly to the general's mansion, but was also caught by the palace guards. They just wanted her to report to the young lady.
"It's okay, Chunlan, listen to me..."
Gu Nianchu whispered some instructions to Nanny Tian and the others. Nanny Tian responded with a "yes" and went to make the arrangements. Soon, a sedan chair was carried to the side of the marquis's carriage, and the coachman had already harnessed the horses.
"Ma'am, be careful."
Nanny Tian and Chunlan carefully helped the person in the sedan chair up into the carriage, and the carriage drove towards the back door.
"Stop! The Marquis has given an order. No one can leave the house without the Marquis's order!"
Several soldiers blocked the door and prevented the carriage from leaving.
Nanny Tian got off the carriage and scolded them harshly: "Do you know who is sitting in this carriage? How dare you stop it?"
The guard smiled and said, "Madam Tian, please forgive us. We are just following your orders. If Madam wants to go out, please ask the Marquis to send someone to tell us, and we will let her go."
"Are you refusing to let our young lady go out today? Aren't you afraid that the general's mansion will come to your house to demand an explanation?"
Nanny Tian and Chunlan started a quarrel with the palace soldiers and tried to force their way out. Several palace soldiers immediately sent for the palace soldiers at the front gate to help.
He said polite words but refused to let me go.
Later, the servants of Begonia Garden came and tried to force their way out of the house.
However, although they practiced martial arts regularly, they were still far behind the well-trained palace soldiers.
When Old Marquis Shen and the old lady heard that Gu Nianchu wanted to force her way out of the house, Old Lady Shen's face turned ugly and she kept cursing Gu Nianchu. But Old Marquis Shen glared at her and said, "If you say something like this at this time and it gets to the General's House, won't it cause trouble for our House?"
"My Lord, you must not be soft-hearted. You must not let Gu leave the mansion! No matter how powerful the General's Mansion is, now that Gu is the daughter-in-law of our mansion, she must abide by the rules of our mansion!"
Old Madam Shen was so angry today that she was dizzy. She was afraid that the old marquis would let Gu Nianchu go.
"Do you really need to tell me all this? Don't worry, let's temper Gu first, she will eventually realize her mistakes."
Lord Shen got up and left, saying, "You should also rest early."
The old marquis has two new concubines who are young and beautiful, so he naturally would not stay in Fushou Hall.
Old Madam Shen couldn't help but scold the old marquis.
Shen Jiao waited for her father to leave. She came out from behind the screen and threw herself into Old Madam Shen's arms, "Mother, please make the decision for me. Why does father still protect Gu when she is so hateful?"
Shen Jiao was slapped in the face by Gu Nianchu today. She couldn't bear this anger in her heart.
Madam Shen sighed, "Jiaojiao, that Gu is not a concern, but she is the legitimate daughter of the General's Mansion. Her father and brother are now fighting the enemy at the border, and the court also values her very much. If she gets into trouble in our mansion at this time, the General's Mansion will definitely ask our mansion for an explanation. Now that your elder brother has just been appreciated by the Crown Prince, no accidents can happen."
Shen Jiao felt very aggrieved: "Mother, did she beat my daughter for nothing?"
Over the past five years, Gu Nianchu had demanded everything from her, which fueled her greed.
Now that the Gu family has brought such shame upon her, she will definitely make them pay a heavy price.
"Your father has ordered the guards to guard the gates of the mansion. Gu and her people can't leave the mansion. Just wait and see. One day she will beg for mercy!" Old Madam Shen's voice was filled with venom. "Just now, the servants reported that the doctor sent by Haitangyuan was not able to enter the mansion. Gu wanted to go out to see the doctor but was stopped. Let her stay sick."
When Shen Jiao heard this, she felt a little relieved.
"I'll go check it out. Don't let her leave the house so late at night. If people outside know about this, they will laugh at our mansion for having no rules."
Shen Jiao couldn't wait to see Gu Nianchu's joke, but Old Madam Shen stopped her and said, "Jiao Jiao, you are the daughter of a noble family, why do you have to go up against a vulgar woman like her?"
What if he was really injured by Gu Nianchu's rough subordinates, and now their mansion cannot touch Gu Nianchu for the time being, wouldn't he be just asking for a beating in vain?
Shen Jiaojiao listened to her mother's analysis and then gave up: "Well, I'll ask for justice from Gu some other day. If she doesn't give me more of the good things in her private vault this time, don't expect me to forgive her."
Nanny Tian led her men to fight with the palace soldiers, but was defeated. They could only reluctantly carry Gu Nianchu back to Haitang Garden in a sedan chair. After reporting the news to Old Madam Shen and Shen Jiaojiao, the mother and daughter finally vented their anger.
When Nanny Tian returned to Begonia Garden, Xia He went up to her and whispered something in her ear. Nanny Tian then ordered people to lock the gate of Begonia Garden and not open the door for anyone to come.
At this time, Gu Nianchu, Qiu Bi and Dong Yu had already climbed over the wall and left the Marquis' Mansion.
"Miss, why don't we go back to the mansion and invite the eldest master? You are a married woman, and there are no female relatives in the Prince Qi's mansion..."
Qiu Bi worriedly persuaded Gu Nianchu who was rushing to Qi Wang Mansion, but Gu Nianchu shook his head: "It's okay, no one will know."
The three of them, the master and the servant, are now dressed like men.
"Miss, the King of Qi will not see you even if you come here so rashly."
Qiu Bi still wanted to persuade Gu Nianchu. She felt that the young lady was being bullied by the Marquis' Mansion, so she should go directly back to the General's Mansion and let the eldest son come to the Marquis' Mansion to ask for an explanation.
"Qiu Bi, the young lady has her own ideas, you don't need to say more."
Dong Yu reached out and grabbed Qiu Bi, warning her in a low voice.
Qiu Bi could only shut up.
Gu Nianchu walked to the Prince Qi's mansion, took out a piece of black jade and asked the gatekeeper to deliver it to the Prince Qi: "Thank you."
The concierge glanced at Gu Nianchu and bowed, "Please wait a moment, sir. I will report to you right away."
The palace housekeeper came in person to invite Gu Nianchu into the palace: "Please come in, young master."
Arriving at the reception room, the butler gestured to Qiu Bi and Dong Yu to serve tea in the side room.
"Sir, our prince has summoned you, please come in."
Signaled Gu Nianchu to go in alone.
Gu Nianchu didn't even look at the person in the upper seat when she entered the room. She bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings to His Majesty the Prince of Qi!"
"Where did you get this black jade?"
The voice of the King of Qi was full of pressure, which made Gu Nianchu a little nervous, but she still suppressed her inner fear and said in a deep voice: "Five years ago, a nobleman gave it to me."
