The information that Jin Ruoyun inadvertently revealed enlightened the onlookers present.

"Jin Ruoyun is right! If she didn't like Sang Xiaowan, how could she have given birth to so many children?! It's impossible that she was drugged both times."

"Isn't it obvious? The concubine said it was Gu Boqing who bought her. They had been having an affair for a long time, and it was consensual."

"Gu Boqing is so disgusting. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that he is with Jin Ruoyun because of her family background. Who is he showing off his affectionate attitude to? Does he think we are stupid?"

"I heard that Gu Boqing is now dating the Third Prince. He should agree to a divorce."

Gu Boqing was not afraid that Jin Chi would report this matter to the emperor.

Even if the Jin family is in great favor, what is happening between him and Jin Ruoyun is a family matter that does not violate any law, and no one can do anything to him.

Although there is a chance that the divorce will not go through, I can't let these people laugh at me.

How can he brainwash Jin Ruoyun if these ladies continue to talk nonsense?

"Everyone, we are really sorry for wasting your time and making a fool of ourselves. We still have family matters to deal with, so we will not entertain you. Please go back."

After Mrs. Gu realized what was happening, she joined in chasing people away.

"Right, right, right! This is our Gu family's business, it has nothing to do with you! Go away, go away! How can you be so kind? Gossip like that!"

Gu Boqing pretended to be angry and said, "Mom, don't say that. This has nothing to do with you ladies."

He turned to the ladies and ladies with a pleading look on his face.

"The adults in your family have a good relationship with me. Please don't tell anyone about what happened today. Thank you very much. I will come to thank you someday."

Just now they were talking in a very low voice, as they could not openly criticize others. After all, the master of the family and Gu Boqing were both officials in the same dynasty.

Many of those who came today have good relations with Gu Boqing, so it would be a bad idea to undermine him in public.

"Don't worry, Madam Gu. We are very tight-lipped and will definitely not spread any rumors."

"Yes, yes, we hate those who gossip behind our backs the most. We are all from a noble family, a family of scholars, how can we spread other people's dirty laundry? Sir Gu is worrying too much."

Hearing them say this, Gu Boqing felt relieved.

After the ladies said goodbye to the Gu family, they became restless as soon as they got on the carriage.

The ladies who had just promised not to tell anyone immediately changed their expressions.

"This is such a joke! Hurry up and drive the carriage to my cousin's house! I need to explain this earth-shattering secret to her."

The little daughter who was sitting obediently next to him looked stunned.

"Mom, didn't you promise not to tell anyone?"

"Silly child, it's no big deal to tell your family. She won't go out and tell anyone. Why don't we just discuss it behind closed doors?"

She is not the only one who thinks this way. If she holds such a big piece of news in her mind and does not share it, she will be a fool.

Three people make a tiger. There are more than three people visiting today, almost more than thirty.

It's impossible to hold back from telling it, the human mouth is the most unreliable.

This was also the reason why Jin Ruoyun asked them to come and eat roasted lamb leg in the first place.

Gu Boqing never expected that these ladies who had promised so well would secretly show off the Gu Mansion more than anyone else.

He was standing in the main hall at this moment, looking at Jin Chi anxiously.

"Dad, I don't agree to divorce. I have Ruoyun in my heart. I can't leave her. I will send Sang Xiaowan and the two children away and never let them enter the house again."

He can't break up with the Jin family now.

Xing Cheng would have passed the imperial examination even if he didn't live in the Gu Mansion. If Xing became the Crown Princess or the Queen in the future, he wouldn't have to worry about her.

Whether they live in the Gu Mansion or not does not have much impact on them.

The only one who will be despised is Sang Xiaowan.

But she hurt him so deeply that he didn't plan to care about her life or death anymore.

It is not certain when the third prince will become emperor. The moment he ascends the throne will be the best opportunity for him to rebel against the Jin family.

We must catch Jin Ruoyun now.

Without outsiders around, Jin Chi spoke more directly.

"Then I'll say it straight, this marriage must be divorced! No matter who you send away, this matter cannot be changed!"

"It doesn't matter if you don't agree. Anyway, my Jin family and those famous families that are on good terms with the Jin family will no longer look after you and will seek to suppress you in the court. You should know how serious this is."

Without those ladies and ladies around, he spoke more freely and got straight to the point.

He knew clearly that the reason why Gu Boqing had been holding on to their family was because he could not let go of the power in his hands.

Just imagine, in which dynasty would a general guarding the country not be suspected by the emperor and have his power seized.

But he is different. He has been with the emperor since he was a child and grew up with him, so naturally their friendship is very different.

As long as he does not commit the heinous crime of killing nine generations of his clan, with the emperor's trust in him and his own abilities, the Jin family can continue to assist several generations of emperors.

Gu Boqing was born in poverty, and he had finally managed to grab hold of this big tree, so how could he let it go easily?

Hearing that he would no longer help him in officialdom, Gu Boqing became anxious.

"This... you must be so cruel!"

He cannot let go of the Jin family's help now. If they suppress him, he will not be able to hold on in less than a year.

Jin Chi was firm, "You were the first to be ruthless, so we are ungrateful. If you agree to separate, we will keep our distance from each other in the future."

Although he said he wanted to go his separate ways, he was cursing in his heart.

It is impossible not to stumble upon you. Whether you agree or not, the stumbling block will come sooner or later.

Gu Xingruo, who couldn't bear to watch it any longer, spoke up at this time.

"Dad, they are too bullying! They are just the Jin family, what's so great about them? Even without them, you still have me. Your daughter will always support you."

Gu Boqing thought of the Third Prince, then looked at Jin Chi. After choosing between the two, he decided to stand on the side of the Third Prince.

After all, he and Jin Chi had already separated. Even if they repaired their relationship, it was broken too completely to be repaired.

His daughter is the future queen. When the third prince ascends the throne, it will be up to him to decide how to deal with the Jin family.

After thinking it through, he stopped pretending and sat down on the chair, and directly confronted Jin Chi.

"Well, I agree to separate, but not by amicable divorce. Since ancient times, which couple has separated by amicable divorce? In my case, the only option is divorce!"

"Jin Yuanyuan is a girl, you can take her away, but you can't take Gu Xu and the other two away. They are members of my Gu family and cannot leave!"
