I married the wrong man, and I sent him and his whole family to be executed.
Chapter 24: Improper Conduct
"I said, you can divorce me, then I will have nothing to do with your Gu family anymore." Yu Wangfei refused to give in.
Gu Baizhou knew that Yu Wangfei would never give in, and it would be pointless to force her any further.
"I will never divorce you." Gu Baizhou left angrily.
After Yu Wangfei suffered a setback, the Gu family knew that if they didn't use some means to force Yu Wangfei to hand over the dowry, they would not be able to control Yu Wangfei and use him for the Gu family in the future.
After some discussion, Yu Qiaoqiao suggested: "She wants a divorce, so we can announce to the public that Yu Wangfei is having an affair with an unknown wild man, so that the people in the city know her character and see if she dares to divorce."
"No!" Gu Baizhou hurriedly stopped him.
The person who had a relationship with Yu Wangfei was the current seventh prince. If this matter were to get out, I'm afraid that the first family to suffer would be their Gu family.
What's more, if the news of sending his wife to another man's bed on the wedding night were to spread, Gu Baizhou would probably be despised by everyone.
After much deliberation, the Gu family decided to start with Yu Wangfei's character and let the people in the city know that Yu Wangfei had a bad character. The fact that they could tolerate such a person marrying into the Gu family just reflected the magnanimity of the Marquis' Mansion.
Besides, the Seventh Prince was most concerned about what was in Yu Wangfei's belly. Besides, it was true that Yu Wangfei beat her husband, and some servants saw it with their own eyes.
Soon, rumors began to spread that Yu Wangfei beat her husband the day after she married into the Marquis's Mansion, refused to serve her parents-in-law, and even spoke ill of the old lady.
With Yu Qiaoqiao's exaggeration, Yu Wangfei was portrayed as an unfilial and evil daughter-in-law.
Because Chu Yuheng pretended to be the seventh prince and came to the Marquis's Mansion to pick someone up last time, Yu Wangfei can now enter and leave the Marquis' Mansion freely.
So when Yunhua went to the street to buy things for Fangfeiyuan, he accidentally heard the rumors from the neighbors.
"Have you heard that the new bride of the Marquis's Mansion is not only harsh, but also beats her husband and insults her parents-in-law."
"I heard that if my family had such a vicious daughter-in-law, I would definitely let my son divorce her."
"That's right. The Marquis' Mansion has not yet divorced her. This is enough to show how broad-minded the Marquis' Mansion is. They can tolerate such a woman staying in the mansion."
After hearing the rumors, Yunhua hurriedly took the items he had purchased and rushed back, telling Yu Wangfei every word he had heard.
Yu Wangfei had long anticipated the emergence of such rumors.
In order to force her to give up her dowry, the Gu family naturally used every possible means.
They did not dare to directly announce that Yu Wangfei was unfaithful to her husband because they were afraid of the Seventh Prince. However, if they heard from the servants that Yu Wangfei had a bad character and did not serve her parents-in-law, the Seventh Prince would not be able to find any evidence against her.
"Nothing, let them spread it for a while." Yu Wangfei said with a smile, "By the way, you should spread it too. The more exaggerated the better."
"Why is this, madam?" Yunhua didn't understand.
When faced with such rumors, shouldn't you take the initiative to clarify yourself and expose the true faces of the Gu family? Why let outsiders misunderstand you even more?
"I have my own way, just go ahead." Yu Wangfei glanced at Yunhua, "Why? Don't you know how to do it?"
Seeing that Yunhua didn't say anything, Yu Wangfei spoke again: "Just say that I have bad character and am a bad person. I either beat or scold my servants. I not only insult my parents-in-law, but also hit them. I even want to kill Gu Baizhou. In short, just spread the story in an outrageous direction."
Yunhua seemed to understand something and nodded quickly: "I understand, ma'am. I'll go right away."
Within three days, Yu Wangfei had fallen to the point where everyone was calling for his death.
She has locked herself in Fangfei Garden these days, and let Yunhua handle all matters. The Gu family has also been patient and has not come again to force Yu Wangfei to take the dowry.
Perhaps they were waiting for Yu Wangfei to lose her patience and take out her dowry in exchange for a good reputation.
On the fourth day, the Seventh Prince sent Feng Zhao to come, and Yu Wangfei knew that the time had come.
The reason why she ignored these rumors and even asked Yunhua to spread them was to let these voices reach the ears of the Seventh Prince.
Such a woman with a corrupt character was sent to his bed by the Gu family. Anyone would suspect that the Gu family did it on purpose.
Feng Zhao didn't waste any words when he saw Lord Gu: "My prince has heard the recent rumors in the capital. The Seventh Prince wants to ask you, what does it mean to let such a woman get pregnant with his child?"
Ever since the Seventh Prince found out about the correspondence between Marquis Gu and the First Prince, he had already abandoned the Gu Family. However, he could not openly show that he did so, so he would pretend to do so from time to time.
If Chu Yuheng had not taken the initiative to remind the Seventh Prince, he would not have sent someone to the Marquis' Mansion to ask for an explanation.
"These are just rumors, they are not to be believed." Lord Gu became nervous, "I will clarify this to the people right away. Please rest assured, Seventh Prince, Yu is definitely not that kind of person."
He didn't expect that the Seventh Prince would pay special attention to Yu Wangfei. It seemed that in his heart, Yu was no longer just a tool that could only bear children.
It seems that it will be more difficult to take action against the Yu family in the future.
"It's enough for the Marquis to know. The Seventh Prince doesn't want to hear these rumors now." Feng Zhao snorted coldly, and left after passing on the order.
If the Gu family was not still useful, how could he come again for a second time.
Lord Gu knew that he had messed up, so he quickly called other members of the Gu family and began to discuss how to clear Yu Wangfei's name.
Yu Qiaoqiao never thought that the matter would become so serious. She just asked people to spread the news that Yu Wangfei beat her husband for not serving her parents-in-law. Now the rumor in the city is that Yu Wangfei is vicious and wants to kill her husband and parents-in-law, and is even restless and has had affairs with multiple men.
"You have one day to restore Yu Wangfei's reputation!" Lord Gu was so angry that he picked up the teacup on the table and threw it, "Do you know that these things have reached the ears of the Seventh Prince?"
"Ah, this..." Mrs. Gu was shocked.
Their whole family now depends on the Seventh Prince.
"Qiaoqiao, you go and handle this matter." Old Madam Gu closed her eyes slightly, looking very unhappy.
"I..." Yu Qiaoqiao had no choice.
Gu Baizhou came up with an idea: "The only solution now is for our Marquis' Mansion to step in. If Yu Wangfei is indeed not the person as rumored, we will also have to trouble mother and grandmother to speak for Yu Wangfei together."
This is indeed the only way now, but if he wants to clarify, he needs to bring Yu Wangfei to the public's attention, so Lord Gu asked Gu Baizhou to invite Yu Wangfei.
"Madam, they have already started looking for ways to clarify the rumors." Yunhua came forward excitedly to report.
"I know." Yu Wangfei smiled and poured herself tea. "If you want to harm my reputation, then take the initiative to give it back."
In fact, Yu Wangfei was not entirely sure that the Seventh Prince would help her, but she knew that Chu Yuheng would, so she chose to wait.
