The whole family died tragically? The eldest daughter is the most powerful in the capital after her

Gu Nanyuan listened to the elders' accusations, his face became even colder, he smiled faintly, his eyes like ice knives swept over the Sixth Madam and the Sixth Master, and said calmly: "Sixth Uncle, if you are just pretending to be like this and taking the opportunity to make us keep silent, you are making a wrong idea."

"What Sixth Aunt did was no small matter. It was a public humiliation of Ruoxuan. The Gu family rules cannot tolerate this, and this matter cannot be resolved by 'fighting'. If everyone does this, what will become of the Gu family rules?"

When the Sixth Madam heard that he was so stubborn, she laughed out of anger and pointed at Gu Nanyuan and said, "You are such a heartless person! You watched me fall into such a situation and still fanned the flames and even forced me with this!"

Gu Nanyuan looked at her coldly, his voice sinking slightly: "Sixth Aunt, speaking ill of you cannot offset the responsibility you have today. You are still stubborn and trying to make excuses."

The Sixth Master was speechless at Gu Nanyuan's resolute attitude. He was a little flustered, but he remained stern on the surface. He cleared his throat and said coldly, "Nanyuan, you keep saying that you want to follow the family rules, but you made a big fuss at home today, which is also a loss for the Gu family! You should stop at the right time and don't go too far."

Seeing this, Gu Nanyuan stopped talking and said calmly, "Sixth Aunt, this matter is not over yet. Everyone must be responsible for their own words and deeds."

He turned around and nodded slightly to the Duke of Zhenguo and his wife, then walked out of the main hall with a calm expression.

As soon as Gu Nanyuan left, the atmosphere in the main hall seemed to relax a little, but it was still solemn and depressing.

The Duke of Zhenguo and his wife looked at each other, their eyes filled with hidden anger and helplessness.

The two men originally just wanted to calm the matter down, but they never expected that the Sixth Master would threaten to "divorce his wife" just to avoid being held accountable and let the matter go.

The Duke of Zhenguo snorted coldly, a hint of coldness flashed across his eyes, and he turned to look at the Sixth Master, with disappointment in his tone: "Sixth brother, you've really had enough. You actually put on such a show today. The rules of the Gu family are used to teach people to correct their hearts and cultivate themselves, not to give you an excuse to use them at will. If you think that this can calm things down, you are really wrong!"

The Sixth Master's face turned pale, knowing that his eldest brother had seen through his intentions. He immediately lowered his head, not daring to look at the Duke of Zhenguo, and his tone revealed a bit of embarrassment: "Brother, I was just angry for a moment. Things didn't have to be like this, but Nanyuan, this kid-"

"You know exactly what Nanyuan is like." The Duke of Zhenguo interrupted him coldly and sneered, "If it weren't for your Sixth House repeatedly provoking Ruoxuan, how could we have reached the situation today? Sixth brother, it's time to stop your 'acting' tricks. Don't think that everyone is unaware of your little calculations!"

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo also looked disappointed and sighed, "Since Sixth Brother's wife has made a mistake, she should sincerely repent instead of trying to escape again and again. Ruoxuan has a gentle personality and can tolerate you a few times, but this matter concerns the future of the Gu family and cannot be treated as a joke!"

The Sixth Master's face turned pale and blue, and cold sweat unconsciously slid down his forehead. He could only lower his head and say, "Brother and sister-in-law are teaching us that we did go too far today."

The Duke of Zhenguo glanced at him coldly and said coldly: "Sixth brother, since you know clearly, there is no need to cause trouble in the future. As for the Sun family, you will reap what you sow. If you, the sixth branch, want to intervene, first consider whether you have the ability to do so."

He paused, his eyes showing a hint of determination, "I will not ask about this matter anymore, the Sun family can only wish you the best!"

The Sixth Master was shocked, and nodded hurriedly, responding respectfully: "I understand, big brother, I will never mention the Sun family's affairs again."

The Duke of Zhenguo and his wife said nothing more. They looked coldly at the Sixth Master and the Sixth Madam, turned around and left the main hall with a look of disappointment on their faces.

The main hall suddenly became quiet. The Sixth Lady looked at the backs of the Duke of Zhenguo and his wife, feeling panic in her heart and fear on her face.

She was about to open her mouth to explain to the Sixth Master, but she saw that the Sixth Master had a gloomy face and glanced at her coldly, blocking all her words in her throat.

The Sixth Master took a deep breath and cursed in a low voice with an angry face: "You stupid woman! You are more likely to cause trouble than to help! Today you have caused me such a mess. Not only has the Gu family lost face, but I have also become a laughing stock!"

The Sixth Madam lowered her head after being scolded, biting her lip in grievance, tears welling up in her eyes. She quietly defended herself, "Master... I was just so angry that I went to find Ruoxuan... I didn't expect things to get to this point."

The Sixth Master sneered and said in a low voice, "If you continue to act like this, don't blame me for letting you get out of the Gu Mansion with nothing! From today on, you will stay at home and reflect on your mistakes. You are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the Sun family anymore, and you are not allowed to provoke Ruoxuan again, otherwise I will divorce you!"

When the Sixth Lady heard this, she truly felt the Sixth Master's determination. She was immediately filled with fear and kowtowed hurriedly, saying, "I understand. I will definitely change my ways and never dare to do it again... Please forgive me, Master."

Seeing her trembling appearance, the Sixth Master felt impatient in his heart, snorted coldly, and walked away with a flick of his sleeves.

In the study.

Qingji walked in quickly and reported in a low voice: "Sir, the Zhu family wants to bribe the jailer and meet Sun Che. They probably want Sun Che to sign a divorce agreement so that Madam Sun will sever ties with him and clear herself of any involvement."

After hearing this, Gu Nanyuan curled up the corners of his mouth with a slight sneer, and there was a calculating light in his eyes.

He slowly said, "Tell the jailer to take the money and let the man in, so that the Zhu family can fulfill their wish. Once Sun Che and Madam Sun divorce, spread the news - let everyone know that I was the one who organized this drama."

When Qingji heard this, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, but he immediately understood his master's intention and replied in a low voice: "I understand, and I will make arrangements for it."

Gu Nanyuan nodded calmly, his tone was cold, "I want Sixth Aunt to know that she was the one who caused the destruction of her own family. Since she has never repented, let her see clearly what it means to 'reap what you sow'."

Qingji nodded slightly and was about to leave, but Gu Nanyuan suddenly stopped him, his eyes slightly cold, and continued to instruct: "Also, tell Qingxiang that there is something he should do."

Qingji immediately perked up and waited respectfully for instructions.

Gu Nanyuan narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "Last time, the youngest son of the sixth room was beaten outside, which made them lose face. Now it's the turn of the eldest son of the sixth room. Hasn't he kept the fact that he has a concubine hidden all this time? Go and expose this matter and see how the eldest daughter-in-law of the sixth room reacts."

When Gu Nanyuan said this, the corners of his lips slightly raised, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, "I want to see if she can make the Sixth House a mess."

After hearing this, Qingji couldn't help but smile secretly. He was deeply impressed by Gu Nanyuan's careful planning and whispered, "I'll go find Qingxiang right away."

Gu Nanyuan waved his hand, signaling Qingji to go quickly.

The prison was dark and damp. Sun Che curled up in a corner, his face tired and haggard, with a hint of uneasiness in his eyes.
