Chapter 1186: To the Crown Prince Consort 1
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
When he was punishing Second Concubine and Chu Yeying, he did not mention how First Mrs. Chu would be punished. That was because he was saving First Mrs. Chu’s face for her. He would not punish First Mrs. Chu in front of Second Concubine. When Second Concubine and Chu Yeying were settled, he turned to First Mrs. Chu.
He said as he looked at First Mrs. Chu, “You are responsible for this matter, since you are the master of the family. From this day on, you shall return the authority token to Madame Chu, who will be in charge of the Chu Family instead. Madame Chu is very old so Xiwen will be her helper. You, on the other hand, shall reflect on yourself for half a year.”
“…”
“I will make an announcement to the public that Second Concubine and Chu Yeying no longer belong to the Chu Family, and Chu Yeying’s name will be crossed out from the family tree, and the Chu Family shall never ask about their situation.”
“…”
“The Chu Family are where we are because we stick to our rules. Hundreds of years have passed, and I, who am in charge of the Chu Family, will continue according to the rules.”
“…”
“It is not very easy to master a large family like the Chu Family, and you shall be punished for your mistake. Yet you have worked very hard during the past few years, so I don’t blame you for what happened to the Second Concubine.”
“…”
“She is the concubine so she should be like a concubine, so should her daughter. They should not insist on getting what doesn’t belong to them.”
“…”
“Just take a break now,” Chu Tian said.
Having said this, Chu Tian left. There would be a lot of things for him to handle in the days to come, since such a big thing had happened.
After the chaos, the Chu Family were back on the right course again.
On the other hand, Chu Yeying and the Second Concubine had arrived at the Crown Prince’s Mansion. A long while ago, the Crown Prince Consort told Chu Yeying to come to her mansion whenever she needed help, and that she would always help her. Therefore, when she broke away from the Chu Family because she was marrying Young Master Gu, she came to the Crown Prince’s Mansion without hesitation.
Chu Yeying believed firmly that with the Crown Prince Consort’s help, she would move into the Gu Mansion very soon, and her problems would be solved easily.
Therefore, Chu Yeying did not panic. She asked the gatekeeper to pass on the message, while she waited there.
Hearing the message, Gu Ruxue looked a bit surprised.
Her brother had just visited her and told her about the Chu Family’s disapproval of the proposal, and her brother as well as the Crown Prince were talking about what to do in the study. She was very sad about how she messed things up. However, since Chu Yeying was here rather than grounded by the Chu Family, she found the whole thing strange – she wondered if it was because the Chu Family regretted their decision and asked Chu Yeying to save the situation. That sounded rather possible.
If that was the case, the condition would be raised. The Chu Family were just too stupid that they were not aware of the situation.
Gu Ruxue smiled briefly, “Let her in.”
The gatekeeper passed on the message.
Soon Chu Yeying and the Second Concubine were led in.
Seeing Chu Yeying and her mother coming in together, Gu Ruxue was very surprised and wondered what her mother was doing there.
“My brother has just told me that your family disapproves of the marriage, what are you doing here at the Crown Prince’s Mansion? Didn’t Prime Minister Chu stop you?” Gu Ruxue asked.
