Chapter 144: A Woman's Resentment
But when I got this news, I immediately came to my senses. No matter how big the problem is, it can't be as big as this!

"Quick! Pass a message to Tianyi quietly, and tell him to kill the man and throw the body into a mass grave. No clues can be left behind no matter what!"

At this moment, Shu Yunfu had no time to vent her anger. She pulled Yuyan's hand and anxiously said, "Be careful when you go out. Go to more places. I'm worried that someone has already set their sights on me."

The thing was done so secretly, and she did it on a whim. Apart from Gu Changting, only the three of them knew about it. But now someone has sneaked into the house. This doesn't make sense.

But what is certain is that something must have gone wrong. Fortunately, Tianyi is reliable. Although something went wrong, judging from the current situation, it should not be very serious.

However, this also put her in a crisis. She could not delay any longer and had to deal with it decisively. She wanted revenge, but she did not want to sacrifice everyone around her for the sake of revenge.

Revenge is important, but living well is more important. Revenge has never been her life goal.

But now she was very worried. What went wrong and who was the person in the house?

Kidnapping the Queen Mother is no small crime. How much has she revealed? Is someone watching her closely now?
Too many questions piled up in her mind, and she was so panicked that she couldn't calm down at all. She almost fed the bun into her nose. She believed in Tianyi's ability, but before the empress dowager was completely dealt with, her heart was hanging in the air and she couldn't let go.

The matter was too big. After thinking for three seconds, Shu Yunfu decided to tell Gu Changting about it. One person's fault is another's fault. Who made him know her secret? Since he knew something he shouldn't know, he needed to bear the corresponding pressure. She shouldn't be the only one to suffer the headache.

I just wanted to share the pressure with myself, but I never expected that Gu Changting was so capable. I revealed the news to him and got the result in the evening.

But this result made her feel guilty.

The matter was of great importance, so Gu Changting did not dare to take any chances. He conducted a thorough investigation after receiving the news. However, after investigating over and over again, he had no choice but to accept the final result, no matter how unexpected it was.

"Why do you want to do this? How much do you know? Do you know what is inside the house?"

In the study, looking at his wife who was dressed quietly and looked peaceful, Gu Changting was puzzled. He never thought that the person who got into the house was not the emperor's man, nor anyone else, but his wife.

Gu Changting thought of this lady as a virtuous woman, dignified and generous to the outside world, and taking care of the household chores and raising children. She could be said to be a very good and helpful wife.

Although she was cautious and had her own methods, and was not a weak person, she had never thought that she would interfere in this matter.

"Ha~!"

Gu Changting was a very rigorous person, and he clearly distinguished between public and private matters. There were many secrets in his study, and on weekdays, only a few people he trusted were allowed in and out. Even the servants who cleaned the room were strictly screened, and his wife Liu was no exception.

Being allowed to enter the study this time, Liu was excited and happy, and her heart was full of expectations. However, Gu Changting shattered all the beauty in her heart as soon as he opened his mouth.

"I thought the Duke asked me to come to this study because he had something important to tell me, but I didn't expect it was for this, haha~"

She knew what she had done, and after her people did not come back, she knew that she might have been exposed. She never doubted the ability of this man who was carefully selected by his parents and whom she admired and worshipped. She thought that after so many years of love between husband and wife, and that she had given birth to children for him and managed the house, he was affectionate to her, but she did not expect him to be so ruthless, and her heart was suddenly desolate.

"Why are you doing this? Do you know what time it is now?!"

Seeing her like this, Gu Changting frowned slightly and looked at her coldly, "Now is a time when everyone is in danger. The capital is in chaos. Although my Duke Ying's Mansion has the merit of protecting the emperor, the emperor is also afraid of it. If we make a mistake, it will be a disaster. You are so disregarding the overall situation and acting recklessly. What do you want to do!"

The last words were already a severe accusation. As usual, Liu would naturally regard her husband as her God and would certainly not disobey him. She would only think it was her own fault and blame herself.

But now she was looking at him with a cold smile, "I originally thought that the Duke was a man who could do great things, and that he was not concerned with love affairs, but was devoted to the public. So even if the Duke was not very affectionate, I was not dissatisfied."

"She was only focused on giving birth to children for the Duke, and she managed the entire Duke's Mansion diligently. She never dared to slack off, for fear that she would not do well enough and would drag down the Duke, and that she would not be able to be a good wife to the Duke."

"I'm talking to you about serious matters, why are you saying these things?"

His brows furrowed even tighter. He didn't understand women's minds before, and he didn't understand them even more now. He respected Liu as his wife, and acknowledged everything she had done for him and the Duke's Mansion. Although he didn't love her, he gave her enough dignity and respect.

But now is not the time to talk about this!
"Ha! In the eyes of the Duke, everything I do is unimportant, but why? I am your wife, married to you in a grand sedan chair. You personally begged me to marry you! I can tolerate you not having me in your heart, but I absolutely cannot accept that you have another woman in your heart!"

"You said I didn't care about the overall situation, but you did. At this time, you were still secretly meeting with that bitch Shu Yunfu in that house!"

"That's Gu Changheng's concubine! She's of low status and the daughter of a criminal. What a slut!"

"I have an extraordinary family background, noble birth, outstanding talent, and am one of the best among the many noble ladies in the capital. How many men back then

"My son has come to my house to ask for my hand in marriage."

"How did I humiliate you? You humiliated me so much that you wanted to get involved with such a shameless bitch. Such a big thing happened yesterday, and you still didn't forget to have a secret meeting with that woman. You are crazy!"

"How dare you question me today!"

Ever since she knew that Gu Changting and Shu Yunfu had an affair, Liu's rage had been growing stronger and stronger. The anger had been accumulating in her chest, and her heartstrings had long been stretched to a taut level.

And today's questioning from Gu Changting was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, causing her to explode completely. All her rationality was burned away, and she vented her anger without any care.

Since he could do it, there was no reason why she couldn't say it. He owed her that!

"You thought that small courtyard was our rendezvous place."
