1537 The Crown Prince Consort’s Divorce 1
“Lord Huai, what happened?” Fu Bao asked with a small voice.
Fu Bao would not have been this careful in the past, but today was different. He sensed that many more people were around them. He could solve them all if he wanted to, but he wondered what was going on. So he had to let them stay there.
Those were just hidden guards from the court anyway.
The King was very suspicious, so even if he had a lot of power in his hands, he kept increasing the number of the imperial army. He was not assured, so he had many hidden guards trained for himself.
The Shadow Door had already known about this a long time ago.
The King did spend a lot of effort in training hidden guards, and he had a lot of them, but those hidden guards were nothing compared to those of the Shadow Door.
There were a few hidden guards at Lord Huai’s Mansion, but he did not care. Yet suddenly, he felt that hidden guards were increasing around him.
Obviously the King started to become cautious towards Lord Huai…
Then… something must have happened in the court.
“Nothing serious. He is going to remove me,” Zhou Huaijin said calmly. “This should have happened on the day when the Queen was gone, but it waited until now.”
“…”
“Don’t make a move at the moment. Just wait and see what is going to happen.”
“…”
“A few hidden guards and military soldiers? He really looks down at me.” Having said this, Zhou Huaijin sighed. “I wouldn’t be able to live to this age if I couldn’t deal with them. I would have died ages ago.”
Zhou Huaijin snorted and walked out of the court, back to his Mansion, while followed by some annoying tails.
…
In the meanwhile…
The Gu Mansion.
De Fu came to pass on the imperial order.
The whole mansion was nervous and Gu Zhenkang had not expected this to happen. What was the imperial order about?
He would always anticipate an imperial order in the past, but too many things had happened these days, so he wondered what was in store.
De Fu glanced at the whole family. Everyone was here except for Gu Chaoyan. De Fu did not dare to summon her here either.
The imperial order was for Gu Ruxue, but the King needed Gu Chaoyan to know about this.
However, after a moment of hesitation De Fu dropped the thought.
He opened the imperial order.
“According to the imperial order, The Crown Prince Consort sleeps with other men and goes against the rules. She should have been executed to death, but as a family member of the Phoenix Girl, her life can be spared, but her title will be lost forever. Now she is a civilian,” De Fu said calmly.
Having said that, he looked at Gu Ruxue who was not very far away. “Accept the order now.”
Gu Ruxue’s eyes widened when she heard that. She looked at DeFu in disbelief.
So she was no longer the Crown Prince Consort? That was impossible!
“I want to meet the Crown Prince! He won’t approve of that!” Gu Ruxue shouted, struggling.
De Fu looked at her.
