"If the government lets you go, I will naturally send you to the government. What? You want me to disobey the government?" The Duke frowned.
When Mrs. Chen heard this, she almost laughed out loud. Is disobedience to the government nothing new? They are the Duke's Mansion! Even if the glory of the past is gone, it is not something that a capital order can offend!
"What you said is high-sounding, but you just wanted to deal with me, but someone said it, so you did it deliberately!" Chen said through gritted teeth.
"Oh?" Mr. Guo sneered and said calmly: "Ms. Chen, you said I did this on purpose. Then let me ask you, did I let you enrich your own pocket and embezzle money from merchants?"
In a word, Chen fell silent.
At this time, she felt extremely regretful. If she had been able to find a way to sell some things to fill the hole, she would not have to go to court now.
The blame lies with Gu Qingyuan. If she hadn't insisted on the shop on West Street, the shopkeepers of those merchants wouldn't have gone to the government!
Soon, someone came to take Mrs. Chen away. After Mrs. Chen left, the Duke of Guo turned his attention to Li Shichen...
After a cup of tea, Suihan returned to Gu Qingyuan's yard.
As soon as she saw Gu Qingyuan, she couldn't help but say, "Madam! That Ji Wenyue is such a scourge!"
"What's wrong?" Gu Qingyuan was a little surprised. When she was in the yard just now, she didn't even notice Ji Wenyue.
"The master was about to beat Li Shichen, but Ji Wenyue came out to plead for Li Shichen. Just like last time, the Duke of Guo spared the prince again!" Sui Han said with a sullen face, very reluctantly: "The Duke of Guo is really , so unassertive every time!"
"It's not that he has no opinion. After all, Li Shichen is his only son. Does he really want to kill him?" Gu Qingyuan said.
When Suihan heard this, he became anxious: "Then... what should we do? Are we going to watch a few of them working together?"
"Of course not!" Gu Qingyuan said helplessly, "It's just that we don't need to take action now. Besides, the people I want to deal with do not include Ji Wenyue. Even if she pleads for mercy, so what, Li Shichen has completely disappointed the Duke of Guo."
After saying this, Gu Qingyuan asked Suihan to help him change his clothes.
Suihan was a little strange: "Are you going to change clothes now? Why?"
"Why else? Of course we have to go to the government. The government will send someone to invite us soon. After all, the shop is mine!" Gu Qingyuan said seriously.
When Suihan heard this, he suddenly realized: "Oh, slave, you really deserve to die. You were just watching the fun, and you forgot such an important thing."
Later, Suihan helped Gu Qingyuan change his clothes.
After changing clothes, someone came from the government, saying they wanted Gu Qingyuan to go there.
Gu Qingyuan nodded and followed the others without saying a word.
But before she left the house, she was stopped by Ji Wenyue.
Looking at Ji Wenyue who was standing in front of him, Gu Qingyuan said to the official: "Brother, please wait for me. I'll say a few words and I'll be here soon."
The officer almost nodded and said with a smile: "Nothing, just say so, madam."
After saying these words, the official turned around and went to the door to wait.
Gu Qingyuan walked to Ji Wenyue and smiled: "What is Aunt Wen doing?"
"Madam, I... I have something to tell you." What Ji Wenyue was about to say seemed a bit difficult to say because she looked very nervous.
Gu Qingyuan saw it, smiled slightly, and said: "Aunt Wen, if you have anything to say, just say it." "Yuan'er, you went to the Yamen this time for Chen's business."
When Gu Qingyuan heard this, his face suddenly darkened: "Mrs. Wen, what do you mean? Do you want me to spare Mrs. Chen?"
"Ms. Chen is your mother-in-law after all. She has to be merciful and merciful. You..."
"Mrs. Wen, I'm not as generous as you." Gu Qingyuan looked at Ji Wenyue and said in a cold tone: "Also, from the moment you started to plead for Li Shichenjin, the relationship between us was no longer the same."
"I know, but...but after all, Mrs. Chen raised Brother Chen, it won't be easy for her." Ji Wenyue had a bitter look on her face. If Li Shichen hadn't begged her, she wouldn't have come to Gu Qingyuan.
"Oh, it turns out it's because of Li Shichen!" Gu Qingyuan suddenly realized: "It seems that Mrs. Wen has confirmed that Li Shichen is your child?"
"Our blood blends." Ji Wenyue said this and paused: "I know you will think I'm stupid for saying this, but Brother Chen's blood doesn't blend with Chen's, and I don't want to I believe it, but..." Ji Wenyue hesitated, but Gu Qingyuan understood what she wanted to say.
After a brief silence, Gu Qingyuan said: "Mrs. Wen, let me give you a piece of advice. In this world, people can be deceived about anything. If you insist on believing in your own eyes, there is nothing I can do about it."
"I know, then Mrs. Chen, can you..."
"No." Gu Qingyuan interrupted Chen: "I can't forgive someone who has hurt me. Besides, Chen did something wrong. If you can make up for my loss, I can let it go. Mrs. Chen, I don’t think Mrs. Wen’s embroidery work can make up for that shortfall.”
After saying these words, Gu Qingyuan walked away.
Suihan glanced at Mrs. Chen who was standing there and whispered: "Madam, are we leaving like this? What should we do if she goes to complain to the Duke?"
"She has already begged for Li Shichen. Even if she files a complaint, I still have something to say. At worst, I will say that Ji Wenyue and the Chen family are in the same group." Gu Qingyuan said.
"Ah, but would the master believe this?" Sui Han asked.
"What do you think? Ji Wenyue has already begged Li Shichen. If she wasn't in the same group, would she have done this?" Gu Qingyuan asked.
"Then... what if Ji Wenyue tells the Duke that the child is theirs?" Sui Han asked again.
When Gu Qingyuan heard this, he paused and frowned: "That shouldn't be the case. The Duke of Guo shouldn't be that stupid."
"I don't know! What if?" Sui Han asked.
"What if..." Gu Qingyuan thought for a moment, and finally waved his hand: "Don't think so much, it doesn't matter even if there is an eventuality. Our soldiers will cover up the water and the earth. Now let's make it impossible for Chen to stand up. Revenge comes one at a time, after all, you can’t bite off more than you can chew.”
While talking, Gu Qingyuan took Suihan into the carriage and went straight to the government office.
As soon as she arrived at the government office, she saw the shopkeepers kneeling in the hall and Mrs. Chen sitting there.
Seeing this scene, Gu Qingyuan frowned subconsciously. This Chen has done so many bad things, why should he just sit there!
"Madam, you have to be careful!" Sui Han whispered.
Gu Qingyuan nodded and smiled: "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
After saying that, she stepped into the hall...
