Chapter 349

Yu Gu swept over his face, bit her teeth heavily, and said, “I'm not!”

After speaking, she turned around and walked away in a hurry.

Zhao Hui thought about chasing after her without thinking. Gu Ying gathered her frowning brows and called out to stop him, "Father, Cheng is still waiting for you to deal with her."

Zhao Hui stopped his footsteps, he had no choice but to stop irritably first and let someone seal Cheng's mouth and drag her onto the carriage.

Cheng was tied up with her feet, her eyes flushed red, panicked and stared at Gu Ying standing outside the carriage.

Gu Ying tilted her head and showed a smug smile of a winner.

Cheng's eyes narrowed, and her tied hands hit the carriage heavily.

If she still didn't understand what was going on now, she would be too stupid.

What happened tonight was clearly designed by Gu Ying for her and Yuan Xing!

But Mrs. Lin's matter caught her off guard.

Cheng was ups and downs in her heart, shrunk in the carriage, her eyes full of confusion and loss. She never thought that Lin Yushan could still survive after jumping off such a high cliff... At that time, she tried her best to find a way into the Duke's Residence. As the wife of the Duke, Zhao Hui was not without any feelings for her... It was later that Mrs. Lin committed suicide by jumping off the cliff. Without the lady of the house, she happened to be pregnant with Zhao Hui's child and was promoted to wife.

Moreover, when Mrs. Lin was poisoned at the beginning and her mental state deteriorated day by day, letting her commit suicide by jumping off the cliff was planned long ago between her and Zhao Rou. But she couldn't help being jealous of her naturally beautiful face, and cut her face with a hairpin before pushing her down.

After so many years, not only did she occupy her position, but also bullied her son...

Mrs. Lin must have come back for revenge...

She would never let her go...

Thinking of these, Cheng's heart kept panicking, and she felt dizzy and the sky collapsed. Zhao Hui had no mood to deal with Cheng at all. He asked people to take Cheng back to the Duke's Residence first. His whole person seemed to have lost his soul, walked dumbly towards Yu Gu's yard.

"Ah Fei..."

He raised his hand and landed heavily on the dark wooden door, and knocked gently on the door. No one in the yard responded.

Seeing the carriage leaving with Cheng, Gu Ying turned back and breathed a long sigh of relief.

Looking at the closed yard, for some reason, her mood was a little complicated. She wanted to comfort Zhao Hui but didn't know what to say.

However, since Mrs. Lin was still alive, it must be a godsend. The prince would definitely be very happy when he knew it...

...

Overnight, at the dawn.

The soft spring light shone in through the window lattices, but the Zhao ancestral hall was cold and gloomy.

Cheng was completely defeated in this battle. Her whole person was like a defeated hen, embarrassed and decadent, kneeling in front of the ancestors of the Zhao family.

Zhao Hui stayed at the yard all night without getting Yu Gu's response. When he returned to the Duke Mansion, he first dealt with Cheng.

An unchaste woman used someone else's blood and flesh to deceive him for more than ten years. How could he tolerate it!

The Duke's Residence couldn't lose face. He couldn't tolerate Cheng's deception, let alone her presumptuously confusing the Zhao family's bloodline and committing adultery with other men. Which man could tolerate such humiliation?

In addition, Gu Ying sent Sun Mammy to him, revealing the truth about Mrs Lin's harm at the time.

After Zhao Hui listened, he was furious. Thinking that he had condoned Cheng to harm Mrs. Lin, he hated that he couldn't kill that stupid self!

He was decisive and ruthless, without thinking too much. He sealed Yuan Xing's mouth and found a way to drive him out of Bianjing.

Under the severe punishment, Yuan Xing confessed to the absurd things that night.

After Zhao Hui listened to it, his eyes turned black with anger. He immediately stripped Cheng of the title of wife of Duke, and on the grounds of her violent illness, sent her to a remote manor.

As for the bastard Zhao Changxing, of course he couldn't stay at the Duke's Residence either.

Overnight, earth-shaking changes took place in the Duke's Residence.

When Cheng left the Duke's Residence, she was beaten dozens of times, covered in blood and barely recognizable. Finally, her mouth was blocked with cloth and stuffed into the carriage.

Taking advantage of the dark, when no one was around, she was sent out of the Duke's Residence. Zhao Changxing had long dismissed the many women in his Zhaoxing Hall, leaving only himself. Zhao Hui looked at him expressionlessly, blocked his mouth no matter how he struggled, broke his leg, and took him away.

From beginning to end, Cheng and Zhao Changxing did not even have a chance to speak.

Silently, the Duke’s Residence changed.

Gu Ying did not watch the excitement. Baomo Hall and Zhaoxing Hall were emptied soon. Among the servants in the mansion who were in charge of serving, some were sold and some went to the manor. In a short while, only Changfeng Pavilion was still lively as usual in the huge Duke’s Residence.

And when the prince learned that his mother was still alive, he was overjoyed and immediately let Huai An prepare the carriage to go to the yard to pick up Yu Gu.

Gu Ying thought about it and decided to persuade Yu Gu to return as the prince’s wife.

Yu Gu was tired of life in the Duke's Residence. At first, she didn't want to go back no matter how the prince welcomed her many times.

Later, she couldn't stand the prince's repeated visits. She finally decided to abandon the grievances with the Duke back then and chose to return to the Duke's Residence.

Yu Gu was the prince’s biological mother. Gu Ying respected and loved her in her heart, and was willing to accept her as well.

But her return at the same time brought back her adopted daughter, Shen Ruxu.

Due to the status as mother, both the prince and Duke readily agreed to the request.

Shen Ruxu had known that such a day would come, deliberately showing off in front of Gu Ying, "Second Miss Gu, didn't expect it, right? Not only can we meet again, maybe we will live together someday in the future."

Gu Ying's expression remained unchanged, her gaze calm, and she didn't speak.

Shen Ruxu's flaunting did not get a response, and all her emotions had nowhere to vent, like a punch on a cotton pad.

She frowned her eyes uncomfortably, walked in front of Gu Ying, leaned in and whispered proudly, “Do you know that I have secretly met the Prince? Seeing my mother, the prince does not dislike me, and asked me to speak good words for him in front of my mother. The prince said that as long as I can persuade my mother to go back to the Duke’s Residence, he would grant me a wish. Do you know what it is? Guess, will we serve the same husband in the future?"

Gu Ying's eyes slowly turned cold.

Seeing Gu Ying's expression finally changed, Shen Ruxu was complacent and grinned, "Mother, I packed my stuff! Let's go!"

After speaking, she turned around and walked back, and went to intimately hold Mrs. Lin’s wrist.

"Madam, this..." Yin Lan was a little worried.

Gu Ying shook her head, indicating not to publicize it. At this time, it was a big reunion for the prince and his mother. Some words could not be said, it would spoil the mood and upset others.

Yin Lan pursed her lips and finally shut up.

Gu Ying looked at Shen Ruxu smile playfully at her, holding her waist, silent as she got into the carriage.
