"Imperial edict?" Gu Chengyan was still a little dizzy when he heard these words in the room, "Why is there another imperial edict?"

Ping An whispered through the door curtain: "I heard that Lord Yu has again reported the Marquis' Mansion in the court."

Gu Chengyan couldn't help but curse: "He has nothing better to do than to eat, like a mad dog, staring at the Marquis' Mansion all day long?"

"My Lord, please go quickly. It was Hua the steward who delivered the decree. Zhang Qing has already sent someone to look for the Marquis."

Ping An sighed and looked at the gray sky! Alas, this father and son, one visits brothels and hangs out in gambling houses, the other keeps a mistress and dotes on a concubine. Even the elder can't stop them. The Marquis's mansion is doomed...

Ping'an and a few servants came in and supported Gu Chengyan. Yan Ke and Nian Ke wanted to take Guan Yingying with them to receive the imperial edict, but Guan Yingying refused to go.

But Gu Chengyan said sternly: "If you don't go, it will be disobedience, and anyone in the family can beat you to death."

Death, death, death, everything is death!

Guan Yingying had no choice but to clean herself up. Her face was still badly swollen, so she had no choice but to leave.

Gu Boyu took the lead, and everyone else came except Gu Shaoyu, who was kept like a slave by His Majesty when he went to court.

Hua Zisheng looked at Gu Boyu and Gu Chengyan and snorted coldly.

"The Emperor of Fengtian Chengyun decrees: Gu Chengyan, the son of Pingyang Marquis, favors his concubine over his wife, embezzles his wife's dowry, refuses to change despite repeated admonitions, and has corrupted his morals. Gu Chengyan is deprived of his right to inherit the title and fined three thousand strings of cash.

Pingyang Marquis Gu Boyu has no ambition to improve himself and does not manage his household properly. I am deeply saddened by this and am so angry that I have demoted him to an earl, and all his treatment will be in accordance with that of an earl.

Gu Boyu is ordered to put his house in order. If he commits the same offense again, his title will be stripped and he will be demoted to a commoner. This is my decree!"

After the imperial edict was read, the whole palace was shocked.

Xie Zhaozhao lowered his head and looked submissive, with no expression on his face.

Mr. Yu, well done!

In the previous life, not only did the Marquis' Mansion not lower the title, but Gu Chengyan was also promoted step by step. Because of the donation of food during the natural disaster, Gu Chengyan became my brother's boss.

In this life, the Marquis' Mansion will move step by step towards the abyss.

Unless the river flows west and dogs stop eating shit, Gu Chengyan will become an upright man.

On the day Guan Yingying was arrested, Lord Yu was outside. She didn't know where he was, but Dong Qin informed Lord Yu. She was the one who provided the information, so there must be someone from the Censorate lurking in Guan Yingying's yard in Dongcheng.

Therefore, today's imperial edict is also the result of several days of hard work by Lord Yu of the Censorate.

However, Gu Shaoyu did not seem to be shielding the Marquis' Mansion at all.

Ah, no, it’s the Bo’s Mansion now!

Hua Zisheng looked at the dazed group of people, snorted coldly, and said, "Pingyang Bo, will you accept the decree?"

Earl of Pingyang!

No longer Marquis Pingyang!

Gu Boyu reached out to take the imperial edict, tears falling.

No matter how bad he was, he still felt very sad about losing the title that his father had risked his life to earn for his descendants.

I accept your order and thank you.

Hua Zisheng did not accept any reward from the people in the Bo's house. Before leaving, he came to talk to Xie Zhaozhao.

"Madam, His Majesty has said that everything in the Bo Mansion has nothing to do with Master. Master is flawless and is still His Majesty's right-hand man. Please rest assured, Madam."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace." This was His Majesty's oral order. Xie Zhaozhao knelt down gratefully.

Hua Zisheng immediately gave him a false helping hand: "Madam, you can't do that. You have received the gold medal from His Majesty, so you don't have to kneel down."

"Your Majesty, I must kneel down to thank you for your kindness." Xie Zhaozhao said with a smile, "I am grateful from the bottom of my heart, and I will definitely fulfill my duty."

Then he asked Manman to stuff a purse into Hua Zisheng's pocket, and Hua Zisheng took it.

I went out and took a look secretly, and wow, there were two hundred strings of coins, one hundred strings of coins, and two fifty strings of coins.

Even though Xie Zhaozhao and Yin Jinan easily earn tens of millions of strings of coins, two hundred strings of coins is still a huge sum of money right now.

A meal at the top restaurants on Yongfeng Street only costs three to five guan.

The monthly salary of the Lord is only thirty-three strings of silver.

Hua Zisheng took out a fifty-dollar note and gave it to Xiu Ning, a fifteen-year-old eunuch who came with him, and said, "Look! From now on, when you see this old lady, you must serve her with all your heart! This is a true noble lady."

Xiuning took the banknote and carefully wrote down his master's words.

Now that Hanako Sheng is gone, the entire Bo family is going crazy.

The old lady cried so hard that she couldn't stand. Taxue helped her back to Ci'en Courtyard. Tu, Gu Boyu and Gu Chengyan all cried with her.

Mrs. Lu kept crying and cursing, "Father risked his life on the battlefield to give us this job, but we didn't even have time to hold on to it for two lifetimes. Now we've lost it. How can we face him?"

Every sentence mentioned her father, and every sentence was a complaint to herself. Just because she was the second wife, she deserved to get nothing and could only watch herself lose everything!

Gu Boyu cried for a while, put the imperial edict away respectfully, and turned around to find Gu Chengyan.

The upper house rules!

Gu Boyu couldn't even describe how he felt after dragging the entire Marquisate down with his own efforts and being stripped of his qualification to inherit the title.

beat!

In the front yard, Gu Chengyan was pressed on a bench, and Gu Boyu was whipping him hard with a whip.

The whip is specially made, and it will tear the skin and flesh apart with one whip!

Gu Chengyan's mouth was blocked. He cried at first, but then he lay on the stool and didn't move.

Gu Boyu was so angry that he didn't care and continued to fight.

Tu knelt in front of the old lady, her head almost broken.

"Mother, please save Yan'er. His qualification to inherit the title has been stripped away. He is living a life worse than death. If you beat him again, he will be killed!"

The old lady also burst into tears. She came out tremblingly with the help of Taxue and said to Gu Boyu, "Boss, stop beating him. It's useless to beat him to death now that things have come to this."

After beating Gu Chengyan, Gu Boyu asked Zhang Qing to drag Guan Yingying out and started fighting in the yard.

It's not just a few slaps, it's a beating to death.

Gu Yuebai saw his mother being beaten and cried miserably. He threw himself on Guan Yingying and shouted, "Don't hit my mother, you old man with sores on your head and pus on your feet..."

Oh, Lord Gu hasn’t been scolded like this for many years, and today he was even scolded by his own grandson. He swung the whip at Gu Yuebai.

"He's so young, yet he's already disobeying his elders. He's been corrupted by this whore. I'd rather beat him to death."

Gu Yuebai was hit by a whip from Gu Boyu. Even an adult could not bear the whip, so how could Gu Yuebai bear it? He screamed and fainted.

Her body and face were immediately covered in blood. Guan Yingying was extremely frightened, her heart and gall bladder were broken, she rushed over to protect Gu Yuebai, and cried miserably: "Please, let me go!"

"I can earn enough money to pay back the three thousand strings of cash for Gu Chengyan. Half a year, no, three months," she promised fearfully, "If I can't earn enough money in three months, you can beat me to death, and I won't complain."

Gu Chengyan fainted and woke up again, lying on the ground begging: "Grandmother, father, mother, please let her go, it's all my fault, you can drive me out of the house..."

However, Gu Boyu, who was angry, still beat Guan Yingying half to death.

"You, don't beat me to death... I can save Chengyan..." Guan Yingying fainted.

Unlike a slap in the face, this time it was a hit with a board.

After thirty strokes of the cane, a pool of blood flowed from under Guan Yingying's body.
