Favoring Concubines and Destroying Wife: Reborn, I Married to a Rich Man and Destroyed His Whole Fam

Naturally, this matter was not proposed by Lord Xie and his wife, but by Old Madam Gu. Minister Gu also had this idea in his mind.

He has had a hard time these days. His colleagues used to praise him and try to please him in various ways, but now, after knowing that Zhu had killed Xie, they have all stayed away from him.

There were even some people who deliberately made things difficult for him at work. If he hadn't been careful, he might have lost his position as assistant minister.

Yun Zhao did not get any benefit from his donation of crops, but his colleagues treated him better. But after the incident with Miss Li, their attitude towards him changed again.

He was having a very miserable time these days.

"Mother, I agree with this matter, but now that I am at Lord Xie's residence, I can't even see my father-in-law and mother-in-law..."

Before, he went to ask for an audience with Uncle Xie and his wife, but was kicked out by the doorman.

He was a man who cared a lot about his reputation. At that time, there were some people watching in front of Lord Xie's mansion. He went there three times and was driven away three times. After that, he never went there again.

If he was kicked out again and the news got to the other governments, it would be such a disgrace to him.

If the censors knew about this, they might submit a memorial to impeach him.

Many imperial censors had impeached him before, but fortunately the emperor did not issue an edict to blame him. Otherwise, he would have been finished.

"You can think of another way, or go see Zhao'er. Let Zhao'er talk to her grandparents."

Upon hearing this, Minister Gu's face changed.

Yun Zhao had treated him very badly before, and now if he went to Qin Hou Mansion, he would be kicked out without even seeing anyone.

"Master, it's not good."

Minister Gu's servant was shouting at the door.

"What's all the fuss about?"

"It's being rumored in the capital that the eldest lady is not your daughter, but Princess Zhaoyang's biological daughter..."

what?

After hearing what the servant said, Minister Gu felt a little unwell.

"How is this possible? Zhao'er is Xie's daughter, how can she be Princess Zhaoyang's biological daughter?"

Old Madam Gu was also shocked.

"How could this happen? Is there someone out there spreading rumors?"

Old Madam Gu also found it somewhat impossible.

"This is absolutely impossible."

"Master, I've heard about it too. People outside are spreading the news. People are talking about it on the streets, in teahouses, and in restaurants..."

When Minister Gu heard this, he became even more anxious.

"Come on, a few of you, go to the street and ask around. Find out what's going on."

Minister Gu became anxious.

Yesterday, the emperor was welcoming several princes, and officials like them were not qualified to enter the palace. So he didn't know what happened in the palace.

But today, he saw several colleagues talking about something from a distance, and there was something strange in their eyes when they looked at him.

Could this be what they were talking about today?

Gu Zhao was born to Xie, and his mother stayed at the manor, with the nanny beside her watching him. And after he was sent to the farm, it was Uncle Xie and his people who sent people to raise him. Some of the people they sent were beaten and sent back.

But how could Gu Zhao not be the daughter of him and Xie? How could she be Princess Zhaoyang's biological daughter?

What is going on here?

More than half an hour later, Minister Gu heard the news again.

What? His and Xie's daughter died long ago?
