Chapter 230: A Strike Back 1
As she finished saying these words, Gu Chaoyan looked at Princess Gu as if she were looking at an idiot. Then she smiled.
She was not at all smart enough to cooperate with Mrs. Gu to set her up. Now she had fallen into her own trap.
She had not offended her in any way, except that she lost her face because of what she did as a little child. That was how Princess Gu started to hate her. She thought that it had everything to do with her being disgraced for dozens of years.
She had been an ugly and divorced girl. Princess Gu did nothing when she heard the news. Now that she was getting better she was feeling quite unhappy, so she tried to make her marry a mental person and ruin her innocence.
So whatever she was bearing today, was something that she deserved to have.
Gu Chaoyan showed no sympathy at all.
Zhou Huaijin also spoke with a cold tone, “Take her down!”
Fu Bao and the eunuchs of Biquan Palace took her arms and hauled her away. Princess Gu snapped, “Ugly b***h, you set me up! I am going to haunt you even if I am a ghost!”
Then she became silent. Maybe it was because she was too far away or maybe because Fu Bao shut her up.
Suddenly, this wing-palace was dominated by silence.
Princess Jing looked very displeased. What was going on? What was wrong with these people from the Gu Family? How horrible!
Princess Jing did not like the Gu Family at all, but she could do nothing because the fortune teller said that the destined lady should be from the Gu Family!
She no longer wanted to stay at this palace so she said directly, “Now that the truth has been revealed, I am leaving.”
Zhou Huaijin nodded, showing no intention of causing her any trouble.
Princess Jing was about to leave, when she took another look at Gu Ruxue and Gu Chaoyan.
When Princess Jing was gone, only Princess Virtue remained. She had to deal with the remaining trouble since the whole incident happened at her Biquan Palace. So she said directly, “Mrs. Gu, and ladies, so many things have happened at my palace today, so it is going to be too late for you to leave the palace now. Please stay overnight instead.”
The reason why they were asked to stay was because there might be some more remaining trouble that would get the Gu Family involved. So it was a very normal process.
Gu Chaoyan was not against that.
Zhou Huaijin said nothing more – he approved of the Princess’s proposal.
So Princess Virtue left to deal with the remaining affairs. Zhou Huaijin went along as well.
When they were all gone, only Princess Virtue’s servants, Gu Ruxue and Gu Chaoyan remained on the spot.
The three of them went directly to the place where Madame Gu stayed. Madame Gu had not been with them on this occasion, because Mrs. Gu had worried that Madame Gu would defend Gu Chaoyan if she had been there, so she kept her from following.
Great that she was not here, otherwise Madame Gu would have had to witness all that was happening.
At this time Madame Gu had no idea what happened...
Seeing the three of them returning in distress and the blood on Mrs. Gu’s head, Madame Gu knew that something was wrong.
With a sunken expression, she clicked her cane, “What happened?!”
“...”
“We are in the palace! I told you not to cause any trouble, what happened?!”
“...”
“You always cause Princess Gu trouble. Princess Gu has had a very hard time in the palace so don’t let her deal with your trouble!” Madame Gu looked furious.
At this moment, Gu Chaoyan felt sorry for Madame Gu. Princess Gu was Madam Gu’s daughter after all. Judging from how Madame Gu treated her daughter, it seemed that she did care about her! However, she had no idea that Princess Gu was done for.
