Chapter 24 Difficult Choices
With Mrs. Feng here, no matter what reason Mrs. Gu found, she would be dismissed, let alone Gu Nuannuan, a clever little ghost.

Soon, Doctor Li finished his diagnosis and treatment, packed up his things and prepared to leave.

"Emperor Li, how are you?" Mrs. Feng greeted her.

Doctor Li squirmed his lips, and said lightly: "The old lady is in good health, and she doesn't feel any discomfort."

"Thank you, Imperial Physician Li." A smile appeared on Feng's face, and after asking Taro to send Imperial Physician Li out, he sat down and looked at Yu Feng'er, "Did Aunt Yu hear what the imperial physician said?"

At this time, Aunt Yu's face turned pale. Hearing the words, she tried to squeeze out a smile: "Yes, maybe it's my mother."

"It took me a long time to hurt my muscles and bones. Is it possible that Mrs. Gu's bones are different from others?"

Gu Nuannuan lowered her head, and couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth. Why didn't she realize that her second aunt's words can piss people off!
"Hehe, Mrs. Gu is really good at it. She even touched her own family."

Gu Xiangyan bit her lips: "Even if grandma is fine, it's good luck. Could it be that you hope grandma breaks her leg to be happy? Besides, we saw our mother knocking down grandma with our own eyes!"

"Oh? You?" Feng Shi smiled, "Don't you just want to frame my sister-in-law?" Feng stood up, "Since you released the rumors outside, let's keep it, let's wait and see .”

After talking, holding Gu Nuannuan and wanted to leave.

"Stop!" The old lady Gu yelled suddenly, "It's inappropriate for Gu Nuannuan to take away the child of the Gu family."

Feng frowned, indeed, Gu Nuannuan's surname is also Gu, this...

Gu Nuannuan squeezed Feng's hand comfortingly, turned to look at Mrs. Gu, ignored her gloomy face, and said slowly: "Grandmother doesn't like me at all, why do you keep me in Gu's house?"

"Could it be possible to frame me like you framed my mother? Let me think about it, what crime do you want to arrange for me?"

"Use the big to bully the small, and the next to offend the superior?"

"Grandma, why don't you say that I dislike the poor and love the rich, and I just want to stay in my grandfather's house, and I don't like our Gu family. In order to be convicted of this crime, I will give you a chance to go back with my aunt."

Feng frowned, his face was full of disapproval: "Nuan Nuan, you can't..."

The others were stunned by Gu Nuannuan's words, when did the eldest lady become like this?

Gu Nuannuan still had a faint smile on her face, and the two dimples on her cheeks looked more delicate and cute, but her words were still aggressive: "Second aunt, what is fame compared to life?"

"Besides, I, Gu Nuannuan, don't care about reputation at all. What is clear is turbid, and what is turbid is turbid."

Looking at the stubborn little face, Feng Shi rubbed Gu Nuannuan's head: "Let's go back."

The old lady Gu was very angry, but there was nothing she could do. After they left, she patted the table fiercely: "Wu'er is back, call him over immediately!"

Yu Feng'er lowered her head and blamed herself: "Mother, it's all my fault, I didn't protect you."

"What does it have to do with you?" Mrs. Gu still likes Yu Feng'er very much, "Their prime minister's house bullies people too much! They actually bully people with their power!"

Seeing that Mrs. Gu was very angry, Yu Feng'er quickly comforted her.

And Gu Wu was also very uncomfortable in the court, but he was recommended to be the Minister of the Ministry of War Zuo Shilang. According to the meaning of the Holy Majesty, this position should be easy to fall on himself.

After all, only I have the strength to stand up.

But as soon as he opened his mouth today, Lin Yushi came out and read him a book.

Immediately afterwards, other censors also came out, one or two of them joined him!

And what happened inside made him tremble with fear, it was obviously something about his back house, why did they know it so clearly!
"Doting on concubines and destroying wives? Gu Aiqing, what do you have to say?"

With a sound of "Pa!", the emperor directly threw the zhezi at Gu Wu's feet.

With a sound of "Plop", Gu Wu knelt down directly, with sweat already on his face, "Your Majesty, I didn't! I was wronged!"

Everyone whispered, Gu Wu only felt that the gazes around him made him unable to lift his head.

"Su Aiqing, what do you say?" The emperor looked at Su Zhongliang, and the sternness in his eyes eased a bit.

Su Zhongliang went out, bent over to the emperor, and said slowly: "Old minister... hey..."

"The old minister's granddaughter doesn't want to go back home, and I can only listen to the child's talk about the affairs of the Gu family's back house. I don't know the details."

"It's just that the things listed by the censors today make the old minister ashamed to be a father!"

"The old minister never thought that my Minlan would be treated like this in the Gu family!"

As he said that, Su Zhongliang knelt down, his voice trembling, with the bitterness of his old father: "Your Majesty, I beg you to make the decision for this old minister!"

The emperor frowned, asked someone to help Su Zhongliang up, and said after a long time: "Originally this matter is your family matter, I don't want to interfere."

"But spoiling concubines and destroying wives is absolutely not allowed!"

"If you can't manage the back house well, how can you do things for the common people?"

"Gu Qing's family, since you said you were wronged, then you should explain these few things carefully."

"Is the right to run the house in the hands of my aunt? Do you often bully the first wife in the back house?"

Gu Wu's forehead was sweating more and more, and he wanted to refute, but he didn't know where to start.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he quickly said: "Your Majesty, it was Madam who contradicted Mother, causing her legs to be broken. To punish her, this..."

"Nonsense!" Without waiting for Gu Wu to finish speaking, Su Xiangxuan walked out, "My sister will never contradict the old man! She is the most filial!"

"This, this, but this happened..." Gu Wu glanced at the emperor secretly, saw that his face softened a little, and continued, "The doctor also checked, I think Minlan didn't do it on purpose, so I just let him go." It can only be punished a little, after all, my mother is still lying on the bed."

"Hehe." Su Xiangxuan sneered a few times, staring at Gu Wu with a pair of eyes, "Then why don't you say it's because you want to take the power of the house from my sister to your aunt? Did they have a dispute?"

"Why don't you say that your aunt is just a slave, and she dared to do something to the mistress?"

"And why didn't you say that it was your aunt who bumped into my sister, and my sister accidentally bumped into Mrs. Gu when she backed away?"

"Gu Wu, don't forget, when you asked to marry my sister, you promised never to take a concubine! How can such an unfaithful and unrighteous person become a pillar of the imperial court?"

Su Xiangxuan's words made Gu Wu's heart sink suddenly.

At this moment, the chief eunuch walked up to the emperor, and after whispering a few words, the emperor raised his eyebrows: "Call to Imperial Physician Li."

"Mr. Li has just returned from Gu's residence. Gu Qing's family listens to what Mr. Li has to say."

The emperor obviously wanted to intervene in this matter to the end.

Gu Wu's heart sank, and a bad feeling came to his mind.

Soon, Doctor Li came, and briefly described the result of his diagnosis, four words - alive and kicking.

Gu Wu was stunned. This, how is this possible?

Could it be that my mother even lied to me?
Looking at Gu Wu's expression, it was obvious that he didn't know, the emperor sighed: "Gu Qing's family should take care of the rear house affairs."

Su Xiangxuan looked at Gu Wu mockingly: "Gu Wu, my sister is your wife, and you don't believe her, and you trust an aunt? Don't say anything else, just say that I was seriously injured on the battlefield to save you, okay? It's easy to get over it, even if you look at my face, you shouldn't treat my sister like this! You are an ungrateful bastard!"

Su Xiangxuan was about to rush over as he said that, but was held back by Su Xiangru.

Frowning, he glared at Su Xiangxuan: "The Golden Luan Hall, is this the place where you messed up!"

Su Xiangxuan paused slightly, as if remembering that the place was wrong, he quickly knelt down.

But no one said much about what Su Xiangxuan did. After all, if it were their sisters and relatives, they would be very annoyed.

Gu Wu lay on the ground, his body trembling slightly.

The emperor waved his hand, and after saying a few words, he retreated directly.

As soon as he walked out of the gate of the palace, Su Xiangxuan rushed over and punched Gu Wu, and everyone pulled the two of them away.

"Gu Wu! Let me tell you! Today I have to make my sister reconcile with you! Our Su family's raising Minlan will never let her suffer in your Gu residence for the rest of her life!"

Gu Wu was stunned, why did things turn out like this?

The others hurriedly tried to persuade Su Xiangxuan, and after Su Xiangxuan was dragged away by the Su family, he had a fairly good friendship with Gu Wu and patted Gu Wu on the shoulder: "You are really going too far."

Gu Wu opened his mouth to argue, but he couldn't utter a word, so he could only let the servant help him to the carriage, and walked towards Gu's residence.

At this time, after doing countless psychological training in the restaurant, and with Su'er's persuasion, Su Minlan finally walked towards Su's mansion.

As soon as I arrived at the gate of the Su Mansion, I ran into Gu Nuannuan and Feng Shi.

"Second sister-in-law, Ah Nuan." Su Minlan's face turned pale, and her eyes and brows were full of fatigue.

Gu Nuannuan walked to Su Minlan's side: "Mom, are you feeling well?"

Su Minlan looked at her child lovingly, and shook her head: "Mother is fine, let's go in first."

Feng Shi nodded and asked people to prepare Su Minlan's favorite food, and then brought Su Minlan to Ci'an Hall.

The old lady Qin looked at her daughter and sighed helplessly: "Minlan, why are you bothering? Listen to Mother's persuasion, let's make peace."

what?
Su Minlan was stunned, and Li?
No, you can't!
Su Minlan shook her head quickly, with a look of resistance on her face: "Mother, stop joking, I don't want to divorce!"

"Mother, did your father say something when you came here this time?" Gu Nuannuan interrupted Mrs. Qin's persuasion, her ruddy lips opened and closed, "Daddy asked you to beg your grandfather, right?"

Su Minlan's face flushed slightly, but she finally nodded.

"Mother, don't you feel wronged?" Gu Nuannuan said softly, "Because my father married my mother and had the backing of the Su family, his official career was smooth sailing. Although the Su family didn't help father explicitly, some people I dare not target my father."

"However, whenever there is a conflict between mother and aunt, father will always help aunt."

"Mom, do you think the matter between father and aunt is really handled by grandma?"

"They come from the same place, so it can be said that they are childhood sweethearts. It is also possible that father and aunt were together before mother."

Su Minlan's heart was beating fast following Gu Nuannuan's words, her face was full of disbelief: "Ah Nuan, you, how could you say such a thing!"

"Is there anything you can't say?" The old lady Qin snorted coldly, "Nuan'er reminded us that we have always thought that your mother-in-law couldn't understand you, so we found someone to scare you, but we forgot This time, Lan Hui, hurry up and ask someone to investigate!"

Mrs. Liu quickly responded: "Mother, don't worry, I'll find someone to investigate right away."

Su Minlan was stunned, tears falling down uncontrollably.

"Since you don't want to reconcile, don't come back in the future." Mrs. Qin said lightly.

Su Minlan only felt a "bang" in her head, something exploded. Although she was prepared to pretend to sever the relationship, she still couldn't accept it when her mother said it.

The old lady Qin looked at her daughter's dumbfounded face, and said cruelly: "You have to choose one between us and Gu Wu!"
