After I got into the drama, I led the plot astray

Gui Lanting took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, shook it gently, then stood up and walked in front of me, saying with a smile: "Be good, quickly put down this confession."

I was pinned to the ground by four servants, and my two broken arms were twisted behind my back. The pain was so severe that I broke out in a cold sweat and became somewhat unconscious.

I asked vaguely, "What, what confession?"

Gui Lanting took the ink pad handed over by the servant, lifted the hem of her skirt, squatted down until I followed her, and said, "You were crazy for a moment and beat to death your grandmother, elder brother, and younger sister who came to look for relatives. This is a confession letter asking the master to punish you."

"What?" the four of us shouted together.

Zhao Jinping looked at it and asked in confusion: "When were we beaten to death by the second sister?"

"He will be beaten to death soon!" Gui Lanting said coldly.

"You, don't even think about it. I won't press it." I said with my eyes dark and a little confused.

What doesn’t my grandmother understand at this time?

They sent sheep into the tiger's mouth and wanted to put the blame on their eldest granddaughter. This woman is really vicious. She wants to catch them all in one fell swoop without having to bear the blame!

The grandmother was so angry that she yelled, "You vicious woman, you stole my daughter's place and are trying to kill us. You will not have a good death in the future. May the sky strike you with lightning!"

Yi Ping also shouted: "You vicious woman, we trusted you so much, the heavens will come to take you away!"

Gui Lanting stood up with an unchanged expression, handed the confession letter and the ink pad in his hand to a guard, and said, "Help her press it, and then, serve them well!"

After Gui Lanting finished speaking, he turned around gracefully, walked to the main seat and sat down, picked up a cup of tea, and looked at the four of us lying on the ground with smiling eyes.

The security guard squatted down with the paper and the ink pad. He didn't care whether I was dead or alive. He pried my hand open, pinched my thumb, pressed hard on the ink pad, and then pressed it on the confession letter, thus confirming my guilt.

My hand was already broken, and they had to pull it apart, causing me to scream in pain like a pig being slaughtered.

Gui Lanting looked at the confession letter handed over by the security guard and smiled with satisfaction.

He put down the teacup, stood up, and said expressionlessly: "I'm afraid those wolfhounds in the backyard are starving. If you kill them, just feed them to the dogs."

"Yes! Madam." The guards shouted in unison.

Gui Lanting let out a long sigh and said, "I can finally put to rest all the frustrations I've endured over the past few years. Raising a child for someone else, huh, just thinking about it makes me angry!"

Gui Lanting waved his sleeves and was about to leave when Zhao Jinping suddenly burst into tears, howling, "I don't want to die yet, I don't want to die!"

Grandmother yelled, "Shut up! If you hadn't told us that your second sister was wronged in the general's mansion, we wouldn't have rushed to the general's mansion to be bait! Besides, everyone will die one day, so you should die like a human being. What's the point of crying and whining?"

Zhao Jinping howled, "But I'm really scared. I don't want to die."

Zhao Yiping cursed, "Stop yelling, it's so noisy. If you don't want to die, then run away if you can."

Gui Lanting picked his ears and said, "They are indeed a bit noisy. Plug their mouths and then serve them well."

After Gui Lanting finished speaking, he turned around and wanted to leave with the help of his maid.

As soon as Gui Lanting turned around, our mouths were stuffed with rags, and the sticks fell on us like raindrops!

I was already a little confused, and after being beaten with the sticks, I fainted immediately.

My grandmother and the others had their mouths stuffed with rags. They were in so much pain that they couldn't even scream. Tears rolled down their eyes.

Just when we all thought we were going to die, a quick shout came from outside the door: "Show mercy!"

Gui Lanting, who was almost reaching the inner room, turned around quickly and saw Gongsun Wen rushing in with a dozen imperial guards!

The dozen or so imperial guards rushed up to the four of us and surrounded us. The guard had no choice but to step aside.

Gui Lanting walked out quickly, bowed to Gongsun Wen, and said, "What do you mean, Lord Gongsun?"

Gongsun Wen also clasped his fists towards Gui Lanting, bowed and said, "Madam Zhao, you can't fight these four people."

Gui Lanting smiled slightly and said, "Master Gongsun is too nosy. This is my family affair, but you have repeatedly interfered. If it gets out, how can my husband save face?"

Gongsun Wen said calmly, "This is the person your majesty has sent me to look for. As for whether this is your family matter, when General Zhao returns, let him explain it to your majesty in person."

"Your Majesty?" Gui Lanting's face changed, but he immediately realized that His Majesty was very busy with affairs of state, so how could he have the time to take care of other people's family affairs?

After thinking it through, Gui Lanting stopped pretending to smile and said coldly, "The rebellious son needs to be disciplined. I will raise and educate the son on behalf of my husband. If this gets out, people will only praise me for being "righteous"! Sir Gongsun, please don't bother with the family affairs of the General's Mansion. Sir Gongsun, please go back."

Gongsun Wen saw that Gui Lanting was as hard as a stone in a toilet, but he didn't want to break up with her. After all, General Zhao guarded the border and protected the people of Dayu from being invaded by Xihe. Such a strong general is not everywhere. If there was a fire in his backyard and his wife and children were killed, would General Zhao still help Dayu guard the border? Absolutely not.

Thinking of this, Gongsun Wen could not turn against Madam Zhao. Otherwise, given Gongsun Wen's violent temper, he might have kicked Madam Zhao away.

Gongsun Wen fished in his sleeves and pulled out a token. He held it high and said, "Seeing the token is like seeing Your Majesty. Kneel down!"

When Gui Lanting saw the token with the two characters "Son of Heaven" engraved on it, his brain buzzed, his knees weakened, and he fell to his knees with a plop, shouting, "Long live His Majesty, long live His Majesty, long, long live His Majesty."

When the servants saw their master kneeling, they had no reason to stand.

Then they all knelt down together and shouted, "Long live His Majesty, long live His Majesty, long live His Majesty."

Gongsun Wen suppressed his anger and said word by word: "Madam Zhao, do you believe that it was His Majesty who ordered the officials to come and pick someone up?"

Gui Lanting said quickly, "I believe it. I believe it."

Gongsun Wen nodded and said, "That's good. Can I take the person with me?"

Gui Lanting didn't dare to say no, he lowered his head and fell to the ground, his face full of hatred, and said through gritted teeth: "Of course."

Gongsun Wen didn't say much. He waved his hand and the dozen or so imperial guards carried the man away.

Looking at these people who left in a hurry, Gui Lanting was so angry that his teeth were about to break.

He said bitterly: "Once again, she escaped!"

Gongsun Wen not only brought the Imperial Guards, but also brought two horse-drawn carriages, and we were all lifted onto the carriages.

Gui Lanting then released all the servants in Gongsun Wen's house, and Wei Chang was among them.
