The lady of Chongxi has supernatural powers and is favored by the powerful official

Lord Gu agreed immediately and timidly.

He then asked Gu Ruolan to take out the jade pendant that was used as a gift for their engagement.

He also asked the housekeeper to go to the study and take out the engagement letter and the written marriage certificate that had been sent by the Marquis's Mansion a few days ago.

The names of Nangong Yu and Gu Ruolan were written on the marriage certificate.

Gu Ruolan took out a jade pendant from her neck with some embarrassment. It was obvious at first glance that it was a piece of top-grade jade.

Gu Ruolan was reluctant to hand it over. After all, it was something she had been wearing for more than ten years.

If jade nourishes people, then the jade may have played a role in her growth.

Not to mention that the jade represents the token of engagement between them, the fact that he has been with her for so many years means that they have feelings for each other.

Gu Ruolan looked down at the lustrous jade and felt a little panicked.

Are we really going to just hand it over and break off like this?

Qingqiu was not polite at all. He walked up and took it away.

But when she took it and was about to give it to Nangong Yu, Nangong Yu directly asked her to throw it out the door:

"It's dirty. I don't want it anymore."

Gu Ruolan's face changed.

But he could only watch Qingqiu really walk to the door and throw it hard towards the stone steps in the yard. With a snap, the jade shattered.

The token that Nangong Yu handed over was on Qingyi, in a box, and was handed over to Lord Gu.

Lord Gu really wanted to be more ambitious and smash the jade, but he didn't dare.

Nangong Yu dared not to give him face, but he didn't dare not to give Nangong Yu face.

What's still missing is the marriage certificate from the second son of the Qin family.

Lord Gu had no choice but to ask the second son of the Qin family's servant to go back to Duke Qin's mansion and get it.

If the daughter being married off is not right, then the marriage certificate will naturally be invalid.

The Duke Qin's Mansion did not make it difficult and took it directly.

Nangong Yu tore both marriage certificates into pieces in front of him.

"From now on, there will be no more in-law relations between the Changyong Marquis' Mansion and the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion. Gu Ruoxi will no longer have anything to do with the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion. If the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion causes trouble for Madam Shu in the future, or finds some excuses to embarrass Madam Shu, don't blame me for being rude!"

Gu Ruoxi thought Nangong Yu’s actions were so handsome.

Gu Ruolan looked at the torn pieces of paper, and for some reason, she felt as if her heart was torn apart. She was like the pieces of paper flying in the air, even worse than the fallen flowers blown away by the wind.

When the marriage certificate arrived, the sound of suona was heard again on the streets of Shangjing.

There were loud gongs and drums, and it was a lively occasion. Everyone rushed to tell each other that the Marquis Changyong's Mansion had returned the dowry to the Marquis Ningyuan's Mansion.

When they arrived at the gate of Ningyuan Marquis's mansion, Madam Yang asked someone to call Madam Zhu, who then carried the dowry in one by one according to the dowry list.

The dowry was indeed quite a lot. When the handover was completed, a large group of people gathered outside the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion to watch the fun. They were all wondering why the Changyong Marquis' Mansion would send the dowry back, since it was obviously the Changyong Marquis' Mansion that suffered the loss.

It was agreed that the legitimate daughter would not marry, and instead married a concubine's daughter. Not only that, he also had to return their dowry.

So everyone is guessing:

"Do you think the Marquis Changyong's Mansion has also returned that concubine's daughter?"

"But if you want to send it back, why do you have to wait until the return door to send it back?"

"Tsk tsk, will a woman who has been used by Prince Nangong be able to get married in the future?"

Nanny Yang was standing at the gate and naturally heard the discussions outside. She sent back the other servants who had brought in things and only left one sedan chair.

Then he announced at the gate of Ningyuan Marquis Mansion:

"Neighbors, please be kind and don't spread rumors. Our prince and the young lady are on good terms. The dowry was sent back today only because the prince wanted to get a birth certificate for the young lady's biological mother."

"Also, although our young lady was born in the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion, she and her biological mother have always been locked up in a shabby courtyard by the mansion. Our young lady has never eaten the mansion's food, never worn the mansion's clothes, and has never been listed in the Gu family tree."

"So, now our prince is going to give the young lady's biological mother a good status. From now on, our young lady will have nothing to do with the Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion."

As soon as Nanny Yang finished her story, the crowd exploded.

So this is ah!

"Prince Nangong is kind and righteous, and knows how to be grateful. This young lady's wedding has helped him, so he has sought justice for her."

"That's right. I didn't expect that the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion is so complicated. Tsk tsk, a teenage concubine's daughter has been locked up all this time."

"What kind of concubine is this? Haven't you heard that she hasn't even eaten at home? And she's not listed in their family tree. I'm afraid the marquis' wife is very capable. There are many secret affairs in the backyard of such a wealthy family."

"That's good now. Just wait and see. Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion has offended Changyong Marquis' Mansion. They will know the consequences later."

"We are not afraid that they have a relative from the Duke's Mansion..."

"Ah... I see. I'm afraid it's to marry into a rich family? Or maybe you're afraid that the wedding will end in widowhood?"

"..."

Nanny Yang didn't care what people outside were saying. They brought a carriage and parked it outside, waiting for Madam Shu to come out and take her away.

After the dowry arrived at the mansion, Lord Gu naturally found out how the dowry was brought there, and he was so angry that he almost attacked Xiao Huang.

After Xiao Huang received the dowry list, Nanny Zhu said everything matched, so she handed over Shu Yuhe's original indenture.

As soon as they got the indenture, they asked Qingqiu to accompany them to pack their things. The Qingyi men carried Nangong Yu out to the carriage.

Lord Gu even came out to see Nangong Yu off and wanted to keep him for lunch.

Nangong Yu looked at Lord Gu with some amusement and said:

"Do you think I can still eat at your house?"

Lord Gu sighed heavily and stood at the door when he saw Gu Ruoxi helping Shu Yuhe out. Shu Yuhe was wearing a patched maid's dress that had been washed so white that her original color could not be seen.

Lord Gu went to meet him:

"Yuhe, go and live a good life with your child. I...I will come to see you when I have time."

Gu Ruoxi pulled her mother behind her:

"What are you looking at? I'm telling you, don't come to see my mother, and don't let others point fingers at my mother. Otherwise, I won't forgive you."

Nangong Yu, who had been carried to the side of the carriage, also said:

"Lord Gu should take good care of his legs! Otherwise, he might become disabled if he can't walk."

Just one sentence made Lord Gu's legs tremble.

Because Shu's carriage was at the door, Qingqiu escorted Shu to the door to get on the carriage. Just as Qingyi carried Nangong Yu on the carriage and Gu Ruoxi was about to get on the carriage, Nanny Zhu chased out and said:

"Miss Ruoxi, what about...what about Taohua Hehua and Madam Liu?"

Yes, these people were part of the dowry. They were also considered part of the dowry and had to be returned.

Nangong Yu in the carriage replied coldly:

"Go ask the emperor for them. His men took them away last night."
