Gu Tingye agreed with Sheng Minglan's idea and was very happy holding her in his arms. The two of them would walk through this thorny road hand in hand.Then, Gu Tingye asked several mothers to change Zhu Manniang's clothes, leaving her no property and kicked her out.When Xiao Qin found out, she didn't understand why Gu Tingye didn't follow his temper, but after thinking about it carefully, she understood that Sheng Minglan and Gu Tingye were attacking and defending, one was agitated and the other was quiet. It would be difficult to deal with them if they were not separated.
Zhu Manniang was very hungry at night. She passed by a steamed bun stall and begged the stall owner to give her one. The man was unwilling, so Zhu Manniang actually stole one while he wasn't paying attention.Gu Tingye's men immediately took away her steamed buns. Zhu Manniang was so angry that she was shaking all over, but she could only curse a few words to vent her anger.Zhu Manniang went to stay at the post house again and sang a little song. In the end, she was driven away by Gu Tingye's people, cutting off her escape route and insisting on letting her leave the capital.In the cold night, Zhu Manniang wandered on the street wearing thin clothes and had no choice but to lie on the wall and cry.
The next day, Zhu Manniang yelled on the street that Gu Tingye started to rebel but ended up giving up, ruining his reputation. Gu Tingye couldn't get rid of her or scold her now. Xiao Qin was very happy and asked people to help Zhu Manniang in the dark.Zhu Manniang loudly claimed that Gu Tingye forced her to leave her mother and keep her son, confusing right and wrong, and the scandal spread all over the streets.Qi Heng criticized Gu Tingye in the court, calling him unclean in personal ethics and corrupting the imperial court. Zhao Zongquan immediately called Gu Tingye and scolded him, which made Zhao Ceying angry.Zhao Ceying had asked people to get Zhu Manniang out of the city and told him not to take care of her in the future, but Gu Tingye was thinking about Brother Chang and could not ignore her.
Gu Tingwei went to have a drink and met Zhu Neiguan who was beside the Queen Mother. Xiao Qin also knew about Gu Tingye being reprimanded. She knew that the Queen Mother regarded Gu Tingye as a thorn in her side. Now the two of them had a common enemy.Gu Tingye went to the Duke of Qi's mansion and played with guns several times without seeing Qi Heng. The Duke of Qi kept blocking him, so Gu Tingye had no choice but to play some tricks and sneak into Qi Heng's study.
Qi Heng and Gu Tingye were very estranged. Gu Tingye knew that he was because of Sheng Minglan, so Qi Heng felt guilty and immediately denied it.Qi Heng didn't believe Gu Tingye and felt that he was really in trouble and finally gave up. When Gu Tingye saw that he didn't believe it, he had no choice but to leave in despair.Qi Heng suddenly called him "Second Uncle". He had also expressed his concerns to Gu Tingye, but what was the result now?Gu Tingye was annoyed and angrily criticized Qi Heng for not procrastinating on a relationship in the first place. He had also said that he would help Qi Heng, but Qi Heng didn't nod.There will be no one in this world standing still waiting for him.Qi Heng shouted at Gu Tingye's back that he only joined him for the imperial court, but his voice became smaller and smaller.
Gu Tingye's people followed Zhu Manniang to the cemetery. Gu Tingye couldn't believe it. Sheng Minglan pulled him and rushed there now.Zhu Manniang burned paper for Brother Chang in a cemetery while scolding Sister Rong.Gu Tingye didn't want to believe it when he saw it, so he stamped out the paper money and pushed Zhu Manniang aside.Zhu Manniang, now disheveled, pointed to the small grave and said, that is Brother Chang.Sheng Minglan checked carefully and saw that it was Chen Tu who was right.Zhu Manniang also laughed horribly, saying that Gu Tingye was just a victim, and Gu Tingye dug up the grave like crazy.Zhu Manniang wanted to say something else, but Sheng Minglan walked over quickly and slapped her.
