When Minister Gu heard Gu Zhao talking about the Taoist priest, his face looked a little embarrassed.

In fact, he had doubts about this matter at the time. However, there were too many things happening in the mansion. Moreover, he cared a lot about Zhu and the legitimate son and daughter in Zhu's belly, so he directly agreed to Zhu's suggestion to send Gu Zhao to the manor.

After Gu Zhao left the Gu Mansion, the Gu family did get better.

"Killing someone means paying with one's life, this is a matter of course. Even if the matter gets out of hand and I can't stay in Qin Hou Mansion anymore and get ridiculed by others, I am happy with that. If I can't avenge my mother, then what's the point of me living..."

Gu Zhao felt that as the daughter of Xie, she could not avenge her mother and had to consider the Gu family and Minister Gu. She was not worthy of being the daughter of Xie.

Her grandparents have been protecting her for so many years. If she cannot take revenge, she will be sorry to all the relatives who love her.

Hearing Gu Zhao's firm words, Old Master Xie, Old Madam Xie, and Third Uncle Xie were deeply moved.

They had actually thought about this before they came. Zhu must be divorced, but they still had to think about whether to send her to the government office or not.

Whether Minister Gu lost his job or not was none of their business. But they were also afraid that it would affect Zhao'er.

They didn't want Zhao'er to become a laughing stock in the capital, nor did they want Zhao'er to have a bad life in Qin Hou Mansion.

Minister Gu became more and more nervous. Seeing Gu Zhao's behavior, he was determined to get to the bottom of the matter. Even if he lost his job and the Gu family was destroyed, he would make Zhu pay with her life.

But he couldn't let the Gu family's hundreds of years of foundation be destroyed in his hands.

"Zhao'er, I beg you, don't make a big fuss about this matter... Otherwise, I really won't be able to explain to the ancestors... It will also affect you and your eldest son-in-law..."

Minister Gu still wanted to play the emotional card, but Gu Zhao just looked at him coldly.

Minister Gu looked at Old Master Xie and Old Madam Xie, but they ignored him. Minister Gu looked at his mother, hoping that she would help him to intercede.

He knew in his heart that Madam Xie and the others had different attitudes towards his mother.

When Old Madam Gu saw her son's pleading eyes, she felt sad, but she also understood that if she didn't speak out at this time, the Xie family would really report Zhu's murder to the prefect of the capital, and Minister Gu's mansion would be ruined.

The century-old foundation of their Gu family was truly destroyed by their eldest son and Zhu.

"My dear in-laws, this is our fault. Please do not send Zhu to the prefectural government for the sake of the Gu family and Zhao'er. We agree with whatever you want to do with Zhu..."

Hong'er said a few words in Gu Zhao's ear.

Gu Zhao looked towards the door and saw Gu Qing's figure flash by. Gu Zhao curled his lips and smiled.

Gu Qing got the news after the Xie family entered the mansion.

He had been watching from a distance, and saw his father being beaten by Old Master Xie and Third Master Xie. He also followed them to the main courtyard, and at the window, he heard the story of his mother killing Mrs. Xie...

Now my father wants to divorce my mother, and the Xie family and Gu Zhao are actually going to put my mother in jail and make her die.

Xie was actually poisoned to death by her mother, and the Xie family found evidence. How could this happen?

Now the Xie family came to force my father to divorce my mother.

If his mother was divorced, he and his second sister would no longer be legitimate sons and daughters.

He had to find a way to make sure his mother was divorced.
