The whole family died tragically? The eldest daughter is the most powerful in the capital after her
Chapter 494 The Sun Family is Finished
Seeing this, the Sixth Madam shouted angrily, "Stop! You are doing this outrageously! Do you know that this is the mansion of my mother's family, the Sun family? You have no right to do this!"
Chu Yunfei was standing in the mansion. When he saw the Sixth Madam rushing in, his face was still indifferent.
His eyes darkened slightly, and he said calmly: "Sixth Madam, I am acting in accordance with the imperial decree. Sun Che and others have repeatedly embezzled public funds and oppressed the people. They have now violated the law and are no longer protected by their titles. His Majesty has ordered the Sun family to be stripped of their titles, Sun Che to be exiled 5,000 miles away, and all other people involved will be punished according to the law. If Sixth Madam has any dissatisfaction, you can appeal to the emperor."
The Sixth Madam's face turned pale when she heard this, and she said anxiously, "Chu Yunfei, don't be so arrogant! You know I am the Sixth Madam of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. The Gu family has never allowed you to act so recklessly. If you dare to continue today, I will let the Duke of Zhenguo punish you!"
Chu Yunfei smiled coldly, his eyes were filled with disdain, he leaned forward slightly, his voice was cold and unquestionable: "Sixth Madam, it is precisely because you are from the Zhenguo Mansion that I have never neglected you. However, this is an imperial decree issued by His Majesty himself, and the Gu family has no right to obstruct it. I enforce the law impartially, and no one can influence me. If Sixth Madam insists on interfering with official business, I will definitely punish you as well."
The Sixth Madam stood there in a daze, totally unable to believe that someone would dare to be so cold and heartless to her. She clenched her hands tightly, tears welled up in her eyes, and she felt angry and desperate inside.
However, she also knew that if Chu Yunfei insisted on doing so, she would be powerless to stop him, and the Sun family would be in real danger.
At this moment, Sun Che was escorted out, his hands were chained, his clothes were disheveled, and his face was in disarray.
When he saw the Sixth Madam, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes, and he shouted at the top of his lungs, "Sister! Go and ask the Duke of Zhenguo and Nanyuan for help! They are the backbone of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion. If they come forward, I can still be saved!"
When the Sixth Lady heard her brother's cries, her heart was filled with grief and guilt, and tears instantly welled up in her eyes.
She grabbed Sun Che's hand with trembling hands, and choked with tears, "Don't worry, I will go and beg them. No matter what, I will not give up on you."
When Chu Yunfei took Sun Che and other men away from the Sun Mansion, the huge Earl's Mansion suddenly became empty and desolate, with only the distraught women in the yard left, all of them with pale faces and sighing.
The Sun family was completely shattered by this incident, and its former prosperity was wiped out.
Old Madam Sun walked forward tremblingly, leaning on a cane, her eyes full of desolation.
She looked at the tearful Sixth Madam and said in a deep voice, "Now our Sun family is about to be destroyed, and Che'er is the only male. Since Archer asked you to ask the Gu family for help, then go and ask the Duke of Zhenguo for help as soon as possible, even if you have to kneel down and kowtow."
Madam Six wiped away her tears and could not help but whispered, "Mother, I will ask my eldest brother and sister-in-law for help, but... I'm afraid Nan Yuan won't help. He has always been cold-hearted, and I..."
She wanted to say something but stopped herself, and recalled uneasily how she had teamed up with the third branch to bully Lin Ruoxuan before, and she suddenly felt uneasy.
Madam Sun glanced at her coldly, with a warning tone in her voice: "If your plea is fruitless, I, the old woman, will go and ask the Duke of Zhenguo in person! No matter what you have done before, you must rescue Che Ge'er today!"
The Sixth Lady listened to her mother's order and nodded repeatedly. She dared not say anything more and reluctantly replied, "I understand, mother. I will try my best to ask for it."
Madam Sun, who was standing by, had been watching coldly. Finally, she could not help but sneered and said bluntly, "Sister, just go and ask for it yourself. But I have to remind you that even if the Duke of Zhenguo is willing to help, I'm afraid Gu Nanyuan won't agree easily, right? If you can't get it, I'm afraid mother will have to find another way."
The Sixth Madam's face froze, and a hint of helplessness flashed across her eyes. She barely suppressed her displeasure and whispered, "I will do my best. You stay in the mansion to take care of mother. I will go to the Zhenguo Mansion now."
Madam Sun saw her like this, sneered and shook her head, with a hint of sarcasm in her tone: "Sixth sister-in-law, you and the third house teamed up to make things difficult for Madam Lin before. Now it is even more difficult to expect the prince to help. If the Gu family is unwilling to help, then it is your own fault and you can't blame others."
After hearing this, a trace of shame and annoyance flashed across the Sixth Madam's face, but she knew in her heart that if she had not joined forces with the Third House to make things difficult for Lin Ruoxuan, there might really be a glimmer of hope today.
But now she had no choice but to take a deep breath, barely calm her mind, and whispered to the old lady: "Don't worry, mother, I will do my best."
Madam Sun was silent for a moment, and finally nodded, saying in a low voice: "If this matter can be accomplished, it's fine. If not... I will have no choice but to go to the Gu family in person to ask for help."
The Sixth Lady was filled with mixed emotions. She looked at the mess in the yard, said no more, and hurriedly turned and left.
After the Sixth Madam hurriedly left, Madam Sun looked at her back coldly, with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes.
She sneered and said to the maid who had already packed up beside her, "Is it ready?"
The maid nodded and said, "Madam, everything has been packed long ago, and the carriage is waiting outside."
Madam Sun nodded slightly and pulled the two children over, with a determined look on her face.
She took a deep breath, patted the children's shoulders gently, and said softly, "Let's go to grandparents' house."
Although the two children did not understand, they had sensed something from their mother's daily words and actions, and stood obediently beside her and followed her footsteps.
Madam Sun walked out of the yard without looking back, and her maid followed closely behind her carrying a simple package.
When they reached the gate of the mansion, Madam Sun's maid just came in from outside. Seeing their appearance, she was surprised and said, "Madam, are you... are you leaving?"
Madam Sun raised her eyelids slightly, her face calm, and said coldly: "I have no intention of getting involved in the affairs of the Sun family. The mansion is in such a mess, there is no place for us to stand. The Sun family and I are only connected in name. Now that things have come to this, it has nothing to do with me."
The maid stood there in shock, looking at her, and whispered: "Madam, the old lady and the master... they need you."
Madam Sun sneered, as if she had heard a joke, and shook her head gently, "Need me? On weekdays, I do need to swallow my anger."
"When has the Sun family ever really treated me and my child as their own? The old lady and the master only favor the concubine and the concubine's son. Have they ever been fair to me and my child? Now that the Sun family is about to collapse, why should I stay?"
As she spoke, she took the child and got into the carriage without looking back. She felt only relieved and relieved, without any regrets.
She had been walking on thin ice during her time at the Sun family, taking every step carefully, for fear of angering the concubine in charge. Now she had finally gotten away without any worries.
