Just when Yao Ruyan was thinking about things, she followed Old Madam Gu to the First Prince's Mansion.
It seems that the people in the First Prince's Mansion didn't make things difficult for them, and they were allowed to stand in the hall outside for a while before the grandma came over to apologize and took them to the backyard.
In the backyard, the eldest princess was dressed in a rich dress, standing with her back to them, not speaking.
After Mrs. Gu and Yao Ruyan saluted, because no one called out, they had to bend down and salute for a while.
It wasn't until the squeamish Yao Ruyan felt that she couldn't hold it any longer that the eldest princess seemed to come back to her senses and turned her head: "Oh, it turns out you have arrived. Sorry, I just walked away and didn't pay attention.
By the time you have arrived..."
"You're still saluting, please get up quickly." The eldest princess had a slight smile on her lips and helped her up.
Knowing that the other party was putting on a show, Mrs. Gu and Yao Ruyan did not dare to say anything. They said "thank you" and stood up.
The eldest prince's concubine retreated to the left and right, leaving only a few who were trustworthy, and then she said some serious words.
Just talking, it seems that he forgot to invite them to sit down again, and asked with a puzzled look: "Why are you two the only ones here? Didn't I say that all the female members of the Gu family should be invited?"
He bit the words "all the female dependents of the Gu family" heavily.
Mrs. Gu had no choice but to reply: "Back to the eldest prince, there are only two women left in the Gu family."
Without saying a word, she took Yao Ruyan and knelt down, kowtowed heavily, and confessed to the eldest princess. It wasn't that she didn't want to bring the rest of the Gu family with her, but she was forced to come here in order to leave some incense for the descendants of the Gu family.
, she could only bite the bullet and divorce all her daughters-in-law and grandson-in-law...
Even the underage children were taken away by their daughter-in-law and grandson-in-law. I just hoped that for the sake of the Gu family being so "conscious", they would let the Gu family go and give the Gu family a way out.
The eldest princess did not expect Mrs. Gu to be so considerate and dare to say this. She frowned slightly and her voice became colder: "Mrs. Gu, what do you mean by this? Do you want to say that your Gu family
Is it our eldest prince’s residence that forces you to divorce your wife?”
"May I ask if the people around the eldest princess can be trusted? What the civilian woman is going to say later is a bit big."
"Ha!" The eldest princess snorted coldly, "No matter how big the thing you say is, can it be as big as the sky?"
Of course, in order to gain Mrs. Gu's trust, the eldest princess still asked those around her to retreat further, leaving no one behind.
"No, no, no, the eldest princess, you have misunderstood. The civilian woman is not talking about you, but..." Mrs. Gu's eyes turned red, and she took out a blood letter from her arms and handed it over, "The eldest princess
Help, please, please save the lives of the Gu family and the Yao family, the Gu family really has no choice, so they have to take this step..."
Yao Ruyan next to her looked confused: Wait, she hasn't apologized to the eldest princess yet, why did her aunt apologize first?
——Also, my aunt seems to... seem to have mentioned the Yao family?
——The Yao family she is talking about cannot be...
Yao Ruyan looked frightened and had to look at Mrs. Gu and the blood letter she had written in ignorance before.
The eldest princess was also shocked. She thought someone was harming the eldest prince's house when the Gu family made such a big move before. But when Mrs. Gu handed over the blood letter, the eldest princess was shocked: Damn it!
——This matter seems a bit big!
——No wonder there is so much commotion in the Gu family. If something like this happened to her natal family, she would probably die of panic.
She quickly read the contents clearly at a glance. She didn't dare to make the decision on her own, so she quickly called a trustworthy person to invite the eldest prince.
The eldest prince came over after a while. When he saw the contents of the blood book, he was extremely shocked. He lowered his head and looked at Mrs. Gu who was kneeling on the ground: "Is this blood book real?"
"It's true. If the eldest prince doesn't believe it, there are a few things on the civilian woman's body that can prove the innocence of my husband's sister-in-law." Mrs. Gu's eyes turned red and she asked Yao Ruyan to bring over the box she was holding.
Yao Ruyan was confused. Isn't this box filled with emerald peacock blue tiara? What's the use of this?
However, after she brought it over, Mrs. Gu actually pulled out a stack of letters from the bottom of the box and handed them all to the eldest prince.
Only then did Yao Ruyan know that no wonder Mrs. Gu gave her this box before going out and asked her to put it in this box, saying that it would be more sincere. It turned out...
Yao Ruyan looked at this box, which looked like an old commodity and was worth a lot of money, and fell silent.
She still didn't know what happened, but she could tell that the reason why there was such a big commotion in the Gu family was entirely her mother's fault.
It seemed that at that moment, she understood why her uncle and aunt got into trouble before her, and not others. Why everyone else could get divorced, but she didn't.
Yes, if the source of the disaster is the Yao family, then what is the use of divorcing her?
Her mother is her uncle's biological sister, a close relative by blood, and she will never let go of the Gu family no matter how divorced she is.
"Okay, I know about this matter. Don't worry, I and my father will definitely make the decision for the Gu family and the Yao family."
Since the Gu family's move had nothing to do with the eldest prince's mansion, the eldest prince's heart dropped.
Not only does it have nothing to do with it, if it is done well, the First Prince's Palace can even get some credit, and maybe it will catch the eye of the father and make the First Prince's Palace no longer so embarrassed.
Thinking of this, the eldest prince couldn't help but feel a little happy. He told the eldest princess to continue entertaining Mrs. Gu, and Yao Ruyan called his entourage and headed straight towards the palace with their things.
By this time, it was getting dark.
Emperor Mingguang had just finished his dinner and was going to eat in the imperial garden, then returned to the palace to review the memorial.
After walking a few steps, a young eunuch came over to report that the eldest prince wanted to see him, as it seemed to be an urgent matter.
Emperor Mingguang frowned slightly: "It's so late, why is the eldest prince here?"
"Perhaps there is something urgent." Eunuch Li, the chief eunuch, said.
"What can happen to him? If he can be as capable as the second brother and share some of my worries, I will be satisfied." Having said this, Emperor Wan Guang did not slow down and asked people to drive him back to the palace.
.
Eunuch Li, the chief eunuch, lowered his head and did not comment on Emperor Mingguang's words.
After all, the reason why he has been with the emperor for so many years is because he knows what things cannot and should not be interfered with. Especially between the father and son of the Tian family, it is not something that a young slave like him can interfere with.
Just like now, Emperor Mingguang talks nicely and looks like he hopes that the eldest prince will be successful. But Eunuch Li knows that it is better that the eldest prince has no future. If he is really as outstanding and capable as the second prince, I am afraid that the one who cannot sleep will become Mingguang.
emperor.
Emperor Mingguang did not have a legitimate son, but the eldest prince's background was not low. His mother, Concubine Yu, was of a high family background and was knowledgeable and knowledgeable. She was favored by the emperor when she was young. However, as the eldest prince grew up, there was no legitimate son to stand in the way.
, the eldest prince is a bit conspicuous.
Concubine Yu was a shrewd person. She knew when to "retreat". Even if she was sitting in the concubine's position, she could still sit firmly and not displease Emperor Mingguang at all.
