Vol 2 Chapter 889: Master Gu was dismissed from office

The concubine stabbed the mistress, and this matter quickly made the headlines of Beijing gossip.
The newspaper didn't give thanks by name, so ordinary people didn't know where the incident happened.
However, they can't hide the people in the circle.
The course of the matter has long been spread in circles.
Every family and every government is talking about it.
What a bold little concubine, dare to stab the mistress. It seems that Master Gu is suspected of doting on his concubine and destroying his wife.
The old man's family, the Hou Mansion next door, sent people to Gu Mansion to inquire about this.
Master Gu looked very irritable.
No one would pay attention.
If you are in a hurry, you will accuse Gu Jiu of being unfilial.
"One is eager to grab the class to seize power and be the master of the house. The other is eager to let me resign for retirement. They are all rebellious bastards."
When it comes to resigning from office, the old wife of the Hou Mansion, Wei Shi, wrote an invitation to Gu Jiu, inviting Gu Jiu to go over the mansion.
Gu Jiu came to the Hou Mansion by appointment.
The old lady Wei Shi took Gu Jiu's hand and even said she was thin.
Gu Jiu pursed her lips and smiled, "Thank you for the old lady's concern."
The old lady Wei did not forget to nag, "It is better to look fatter."
"It's just right now, neither fat nor thin. The old lady doesn't have to worry about me, I'm fine." Gu Jiu smiled.
The old lady Wei was relieved, "His Royal Highness is not at home. If you have any difficulties, please let others know. Hou Mansion is also your natal family."
Gu Jiu smiled and nodded, "I know. When there are difficulties, I will not be polite."
"I can't write two Gu characters in a single stroke. When I arrive at the Hou Mansion, I will treat it as my own home. This time I called you over to ask about your father. Are you really planning to let him resign?"
Gu Jiu nodded and said affirmatively: "Don't dare to lie to the old lady, my grand niece really wants my father to resign."
"Why is this? That Aunt Xue has already reported to the official, and the matter will be resolved sooner or later. Why should you let your father resign?" The old lady Wei did not understand.
Gu Jiu pondered and said, "I always think that my father is ruined by women in this life. After leaving Aunt Tan, Aunt Xue came. After leaving Aunt Xue, there will be Aunt Zhang and Aunt Li next time. . To say something rebellious, my father’s femininity is sometimes really unclear."
The old lady Wei had a solemn expression.
She frowned, "The old man asks inappropriate words, Xiao Jiu, do you hate your father because your biological mother passed away prematurely?"
Gu Jiu shook his head with a calm face, "I don't remember my father. I just don't want him to continue to harm Gu Jiaerlang."
The old lady Wei frowned and asked, "Hazard? This is a bit serious. Is it really that serious?"
Gu Jiu lowered his head and smiled, "I dare to say this only in front of the old lady."
"You said. Don't worry about passing it out."
Gu Jiu raised her head and said loudly: "Today's Aunt Xue is so similar to his wife Xie when she was young. They are both good concubines, and they have to be petted, the same arrogant and defiant. My father’s old problems have not been seen for decades. Changed."
The old lady Wei was taken aback when she heard this, "You mean, Aunt Xue might follow the example of Xie's righteousness?"
Gu Jiu shook his head, "If Aunt Xue moves her hand, there will be no chance of righting up. But without Aunt Xue, there will be Aunt Zhang and Aunt Li. I really don't want to see that my father is seven and eighty and has to help a concubine. Being a true wife is really disgusting. However, with the temperament of my father, if his wife Xie is gone one day, he can really help a certain concubine as a wife."
The old lady Wei asked: "What does this have to do with asking him to resign?"
Gu Jiu said: "My father's greatest reliance is nothing more than the status of the imperial court official. Without the official position, he loses his confidence and naturally does not dare to mess around."
The old lady Wei sighed, "Why so."
Gu Jiu said, "I'm glad that Mrs. Xie has woken up, otherwise Gu Jiaerlang will have to observe filial piety. In the future, if my father helps another concubine as his regular wife, Gu Jiaerlang will have to pay as an ancestor, and he must also observe filial piety after death. . It's disgusting."
Gu Jiu made no secret of his dissatisfaction with Master Gu.
So the old lady Wei knows that Gu Jiu's attention has been set, not for change.
She said: "Your father will definitely not resign. An official, how can he easily give up his official position."
Gu Jiu smiled softly, "Don't worry about this, the old lady, I can force him to submit."
The old lady Wei asked: "Have you ever thought about how your father would spend the time after resigning? Don't do more things."
Gu Jiu said: "Imitate my old man's old life." Mr. Gu was not allowed to step out of the door.
To save Master Gu's life, Mr. Gu was willing to die.
It's time for Master Gu to also taste his old life.
The old lady Wei sighed.
Gu Jiu said that he didn't even hate Master Gu, and his words must be false.
Father-daughter family affection is so cruel, it is not a grudge or something.
The old lady Wei reminded: "Beware of people calling you unfilial."
Gu Jiu nodded, "Thank you for the old lady's reminder. I won't give people a chance to scold me for being unfilial."
On manipulating public opinion, who else can surpass her in this era?
...
A few days later, Mr. Gu received the official dismissal document.
Master Gu couldn't believe it and was surprised.
He ran to the staff to question Shangguan.
Others came back with a word.
"Master Gu spoils his concubine and destroys his wife, and his personal morals are corrupt. In Taichang Temple for many years, he has not made any achievements, but the accounts are not clear. There are many complaints in Taichang Temple. What qualifications do you have to be an official? If you deal with the officials If you don’t agree, then please ask Dali Temple to check it out, dare you?"
Master Gu didn't dare.
Not many of the of officials are clean, of course Mr. Gu is not clean.
He was ashamed and frustrated, and walked out of the staff with a gray face.
When the cold wind blew, the whole body was shivering with cold.
Master Gu suddenly recovered.
"It must be Gu Jiu! She must have moved her hands and feet."
Regardless of the three-seven-one, Master Gu ordered the coachman to drive to the Grand Prince's Mansion.
After getting off the carriage, he slapped the gate of the Grand Prince's Mansion, "Gu Jiu, come out for me. You are not filial..."
Before finishing speaking, the side door of the Grand Prince's Mansion opened, and the two strong men grabbed Master Gu and dragged them directly into the door.
Snapped!
The door closed.
The coachman was dumbfounded, and the boy was dumbfounded.
The neighbors around had no time to ascend to watch the gossip, and the matter had ended in lightning speed.
Inside the Grand Prince's Mansion.
The two strong men dragged Master Gu to the outer courtyard study, and then let go.
Gu Jiu had been waiting for a long time.
As soon as he was free, Master Gu jumped up and pointed at Gu Jiu and cursed, "You unfilial daughter, who gives you the courage? I'm going to sue officials, and I want to let the world know your true face. "
Gu Jiu asked Master Gu to sit down and speak, but Master Gu ignored it.
She smiled contemptuously, "Father is so forgetful that you are no longer an official, so how can you sue the imperial court?"
Master Gu was stunned on the spot, his face pale and trembling all over.
It's not an official body, it's like being stripped of skin, standing naked in the public.
Gu Jiu continued to beat him, "If my father wants to ask the uncle, or ask the Hou Mansion to help you out, I think it should be avoided. To avoid embarrassment for the father. Neither the uncle nor the Hou Mansion can stand for you."
Master Gu gritted his teeth and said, "Why don't you stand up for me? You rebellious bastard, why don't you stand up for me?"
Gu Jiu said in a cold voice: "Why do you make the first move for you? What qualifications do you have to let everyone make the first move for you? Have you ever given back to the Gu family? A role model? You didn't do anything, so why let the Gu family come out for you? I am afraid that everyone's heart has long been waiting for you to fall down."
boom!
Master Gu picked up the paperweight on the table and smashed it to the ground.
"All of this is the ghost of you. You are a married woman, why do you interfere with my affairs? When I am an official, I am a Guangzong Yaozu, and I am an example to the younger generation."
Wang Yiru approached the enemy, for fear that Master Gu would violently hurt others.
Gu Jiu indicated that Wang Yi didn't need to be nervous.
Master Gu is clearly a hard-working man and a paper tiger.
The surface roars more fiercely than anyone else, but the heart is too guilty.
She said to Master Gu: "Father said that I am a married woman who is not qualified to interfere with your affairs. Does my father know that without me, you would have been dismissed from office as early as a few years ago. What you did in these years , I really thought it was very secret, no one knew? Would you like to have Dali Temple check it out and see if you can get out of the Dali Temple prison."
"Absurd! Nonsense! It's a framing! Don't forget, you were accused of marrying Liu Zhao. I was the one who protected you and opposed all opinions. I prepared a dowry of forty thousand taels for you to make you beautiful. No need to be angry in the palace."
"Thank you father for his dedication to me back then, I have never dared to forget it."
"Since you haven't forgotten, how dare you treat me like this? You are avenging gratitude and wanting to persecute me on the road of despair. You are rebellious and unfilial, you are rebellious, you are damned!"
Gu Jiu smiled coldly, "I'm damned! Is my father innocent? The matter is over, and it's no use my father says more."
"This matter can be recovered." Master Gu rushed to the table, shocking Wang Yi.
He said eagerly: "You say hello to the staff, I can return to my post before the news spreads. This incident has been exposed, and it has not happened."
Gu Jiu stared at Master Gu, how stupid and naive Gu Master was, thinking she would change her mind.
She pointed to the door, "Father, please come back!"
"What do you mean?" Master Gu stared at Gu Jiu fiercely, "Aren't you willing to help me? You ruined my future, don't blame the father for neglecting the relationship between father and daughter, I will also ruin you. "
Gu Jiu sneered, "Father is sure to ruin me? What did you do to ruin me? Go to the government to sue me for unfilial piety? Are you sure that the government will accept it. Or I should ask you, can you enter the gate of the government?"
"What are you talking about? You didn't ruin me enough, and you want to kill your father? I should have known that you are not a good stubborn, cruel, and dare to kill your father. Who gave you the courage? Are you not afraid of thunder and strikes?"
Gu Jiu sneered and said, "Father don't worry, I won't kill my father. Come, send Master Gu back and take care of him."
"Let go of me, let me go. You guys..."
The two strong men dragged Master Gu down.
