Gu Qingyuan was released.

Minister Gu took several servants from the Gu residence to the Ministry of Justice to testify: Gu Qingyuan did not intend to kill anyone that day, it was the mother who pushed Gu Qingyuan and killed someone by mistake.

But Gu Qingyuan was also at fault, and according to the laws of the Great Zhou, he was whipped thirty times before being released.

At the same time, Yun Fu sent Jiang Wanyin back to the mansion.

The injured Gu Qingyuan was about to stand up and salute Yun Fu, but Yun Fu said, "Brother Qingyuan, please don't be salute."

Gu Qingyuan felt a little too embarrassed to face Yun Fu, because he felt so guilty towards her for the way he looked in prison.

"sorry."

Yun Fu's face was not looking good. "It's not me you feel sorry for, it's Wan Yin. I am also the matchmaker between you two. There are some things I didn't want to say, but I have to say them today.

A man should protect his wife and children. I don't believe that you didn't know that the Gu family bullied Wanyin in the past two or three years. You only knew how to escape, but let your wife and children suffer all kinds of grievances. You really make your sister look down on you. "

Gu Qingyuan nodded his head and said yes.

"The princess is right."

"There is one more thing I must let you know. Minister Gu embezzled millions of taels of silver, and the Gu family is in trouble this time.

I hope Brother Qingyuan will think more about your family and Wanyin, and not get involved in this matter."

Gu Qingyuan just frowned slightly, "Don't worry, Princess. I have long since left the Gu family. Since the Gu family did something wrong, the Gu family should bear the responsibility. It has nothing to do with me, Gu Qingyuan."

Yun Fu nodded. Very good. It seemed that Gu Qingyuan had really figured things out after his trip to prison.

"Well, Brother Qingyuan should recover first. My husband and children are waiting for me to go back for dinner."

Gu Qingyuan bowed and said, "Have a safe journey, sister Yunfu."

Jiang Wanyin accompanied Yun all the way to the gate.

"Help me, thank you."

Yun Fu held her hand, "Wan Yin, I just talked about Brother Qingyuan, let me say a few words to you. Between husband and wife, there is nothing that cannot be said, and nothing should be left unsaid, so that there will be no grudges in the heart and the same heart for the rest of your life.

Is there anything you can't tell Brother Qingyuan? Tell him your grievances in person, let him know, and he will protect you."

Some things should be said only when they are said briefly; saying them too much will annoy people.

Jiang Wanyin nodded in agreement.

"Okay, I'm leaving now. You're pregnant now, so you need to take care of yourself for your first child."

Yun Fu glanced at Jiang Wanyin's slightly deflated belly and said, "Perhaps we will be in-laws in the future. You must take good care of my daughter-in-law."

Jiang Wanyin was delighted at first when she heard this. Yes, she and Fufu were pregnant together. If possible, they could really have a child of their own.

But she suddenly realized what was wrong with taking care of her daughter-in-law. She felt that her own good cabbage was being taken away. She shouted to Yun Fu who was getting on the carriage, "Hey! Can't your daughter-in-law be my daughter-in-law?"

Yun Fu smiled secretly, pretending not to hear, and had already boarded the carriage.

Jiang Wanyin returned home.

Gu Qingyuan was lying on the bed. When he saw Jiang Wanyin coming into the room and about to get up, Jiang Wanyin hurriedly walked to him and held him down. "You are injured, so don't move. Have you called a doctor?"

"Ask the servants to invite you before you come back."

There was a moment of silence in the room.

After a while, Gu Qingyuan said, "Wan Yin, I'm sorry. Marrying me has wronged you."

Back then, the Jiang family was crowded with people who wanted to marry Jiang Wanyin, but she chose a bastard like him, the most embarrassing person in the Gu family, who was called a bastard since childhood.

Jiang Wanyin sighed slightly, "The day I married you, I knew what I would be facing."

Jiang Wanyin suddenly realized that he might not know that she was pregnant yet, so she quickly told him the good news, "Husband, we have a child. I'm pregnant."

"Sister Yunfu has told me, Wanyin, don't worry, I will never be so cowardly again. Give me another chance, and I will definitely behave well in the future."

Jiang Wanyin asked: "Then should we still get divorced?"

"Of course not! Unless I, Gu Qingyuan, die, that day will never come."

"That's pretty much it."

Jiang Wanyin and Gu Qingyuan reconciled. At this time, they didn't know that the Gu Mansion was in chaos.

The reason was that the Gu family was managed by Mrs. Pei, and all the money that Minister Gu had embezzled was spent.

For the Gu family, these several million taels are neither too much nor too little. The Gu family is not unable to come up with these several million taels of silver.

But the fact is that the Gu family really can't afford it.

Minister Gu slammed the table and questioned Madam Pei, "Tell me! Where did the money of the Gu family go? Is this how you run the family?"

This is the first time that Minister Gu has blamed Mrs. Pei in this way since they got married.

Mrs. Pei was startled at first, but then she realized, "Where can I spend the money? I spent it at the Gu Mansion..."

Minister Gu looked angry: "Why don't you tell the truth?"

"You do not trust me?"

Minister Gu raised his hand and slapped him. He was so angry that his eyes were spitting fire and his teeth were chattering. "You refuse to admit it. Do you think I'm blind or deaf? Tell me, how much did you send to the Pei family?"

In addition to the several million taels of silver he embezzled from the Ministry of Revenue by falsifying accounts, there was also a lot of revenue from the Gu family's farms, fields, and shops. However, there were only more than a thousand taels of silver on the Gu family's books. How was this possible?

Mrs. Pei was startled.

Doesn’t he never look at the account books of the Gu Mansion?

Madam Pei denied it and cried, "I am doing this for the family. Do you think it is easy for you to be the Shangshu? I have the support of my family."

It would have been better if Mrs. Pei hadn't said this. The more she said this, the angrier Minister Gu became. Just as he was about to raise his hand again, his two sons ran over and blocked Mrs. Pei.

"Father, why did you hit Mother? She still has injuries on her body."

Seeing that Madam Pei was well protected by her two legitimate sons, Minister Gu's face instantly turned pale.

A hopeless man who had only three sons in his life, but he mistook fish eyes for pearls and spent a lot of money to raise these two useless people.

And what had Qingyuan done wrong? Had he ever given him even a little bit of concern?

When he was just born, he wanted to strangle him to death.

Minister Gu said with strength but no breath: "Your mother did a good thing. She sent all the money of the Gu Mansion to the Pei family. Do you know that if the money cannot be taken out, the Gu Mansion will be finished. You, me, and everyone in this mansion will die."

Uncle Gu and Uncle Gu's faces changed drastically when they heard this.

"How could this happen? Father, what happened?"

After learning the truth, Master Gu and Master Gu were instantly panicked. They looked at Madam Pei and said, "Mother, go to the Pei family quickly and ask for the money back. I believe that uncle will understand you and will return the money."

Mrs. Pei was a little embarrassed for a moment. She had put the money into the Pei family's pocket, and she wanted them to spit it out?

How can this be?

Even if she wanted to come, she might not be able to go back to her parents' home.

"Master, this...why don't we get some money from somewhere else?"
