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

"Zhao'er knows the truth, and so do my parents-in-law. They might come here soon... Zhu made a big mistake, and she should be punished... Gu Bowen, if you want to protect Zhu, believe it or not, Uncle Xie will go to the emperor and ask him to do justice..."

When Minister Gu heard his mother's words, his face turned pale.

He really had forgotten about this matter. Now his former father-in-law was the hereditary Uncle Xie, whose status was much more noble than theirs. Zhu killed Xie, and with Uncle Xie and Uncle Xie's temper, they would indeed go to the emperor to ask the emperor to make the decision.

"Divorce Zhu, and let the Xie family do whatever they want."

After hearing his mother say this, Minister Gu was still somewhat reluctant.

"Mother, what about Qing'er and Rong'er? If the Zhu family's affairs were to spread, not only would Qing'er be ruined, but the Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion would also not be able to accommodate Rong'er. Rong'er is pregnant now, and the consequences would be disastrous..."

Minister Gu still felt very sorry for his legitimate son Gu Qing, and he had always held his daughter Gu Rong in his hands. Zhu could be divorced, but he could not put her in jail. If she was put in jail, the Gu family would be ruined.

The censors would also impeach him.

"And those imperial censors will definitely impeach my son, and he won't be able to keep his position as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue..."

He has worked hard for so many years and doesn't want to be left with nothing.

If the matter gets out of hand, all the efforts of several generations of the Gu family will be ruined.

"And Zhao'er, this matter is Zhu's fault, but if my son and the Gu family are ruined, the Qinhou Mansion will definitely not tolerate Zhao'er..."

Hearing her eldest son say this, Mrs. Gu fell silent.

Madam Gu knew that the consequences would be serious. But Zhu had killed Xie, and now the evidence was irrefutable, so it was impossible to avoid it.

Just as the two were silent, a maid's report came from the door.

"Report to the old lady and master, Uncle Xie and his wife are here..."

Speak of the devil, here comes the devil. Old Madam Gu's face changed slightly, while Minister Gu's face changed drastically, and he became panicked.

He hadn't yet discussed this matter with his mother, and now the Xie family came to visit. What should he do?

"Invite them in."

Madam Gu looked at Minister Gu and said.

"You go and greet them."

After being silent for a few seconds, Minister Gu responded.

"Son, I obey."

Not long after Minister Gu walked out of the East Courtyard, he saw Old Master Xie and Old Madam Xie walking towards him angrily.

Minister Gu walked quickly forward and saluted them.

"I have met my father-in-law and mother-in-law."

"Snapped."

Lord Xie slapped Minister Gu directly.

Minister Gu felt a little dizzy after being slapped, but he didn't say anything.

“Snap, snap, snap…”

Old Master Xie slapped him a few more times. Minister Gu's face was burning with pain, but he still kept his head down.

Uncle Xie San kicked directly and his fists rained down like rain.

He had wanted to beat up Minister Gu like this before. But at that time, he was afraid of bringing trouble to his family. He was afraid that Minister Gu would take revenge on his family and abuse Zhao'er after knowing that he was the one who beat him up. So he kept the hatred in his heart.

"Stop it."

After seeing her youngest son beating Minister Gu harshly for a while, Old Madam Xie spoke.

After hearing this, Uncle Xie San punched him a few more times before stopping.

Uncle Xie San had learned some martial arts. At this time, Minister Gu's mouth was bleeding and his face was swollen.
