Chapter 10: Inherited by the eldest daughter Gu Lanting

After a short time, the courtyard was full of people, and when Gonggong Pei saw that the two protagonists had arrived, he unfolded with the holy decree: "Gu Zhenglin, Gu Lanting, take the decree!" ”

Gu Zhenglin and Gu Lanting led a group of people to kneel down to receive the order, Gu Qianqian supported Chen Rongfang and knelt in the second row, the two of them were wondering, shouldn't this person take the order......

"The Gu family has a female Lan Ting, Tianhui is smart, serving the country, repeatedly performing miraculous feats, women do not let the eyebrows, is a model of the women of our dynasty, I am very relieved, and now he is promoted to the general of the second grade Zhennan. Gu Zhenglin, the Marquis of Zhennan, spoiled his concubine and killed his wife, disregarded the emperor's grace, and now deprived him of the title of Marquis of Zhennan, inherited by his eldest daughter Gu Lanting. Chin this! ”

There was silence down there.

Gu Zhenglin's eyes widened in disbelief, his mouth was open, his Adam's apple rolled a few times, and he couldn't say a word.

Chen Rongfang's mother and daughter were even more like they were struck by lightning, especially Gu Qianqian, as if they had fallen into the abyss in an instant, her smile froze at the corner of her mouth, and she felt that she might have heard it wrong.

"Father-in-law," she was a little stunned, staring at Father-in-law Pei deadly: "Did you read the holy decree wrong?" ”

"Bold!" Gonggong Pei glanced at her coldly, and turned to look at Gu Lanting: "Zhennan Hou, take the order!" ”

"Minister, take the order!"

Gu Lanting took the holy decree with both hands, stood up, and the corner of his eyes swept over Chen Rongfang and Gu Qianqian.

Gu Zhenglin, who was slumped on the ground, finally came to his senses, he stood up and pounced on Gonggong Pei, glaring and grabbing his sleeve hard: "Impossible, impossible, the emperor told me yesterday that he wanted to give me an explanation......"

"I'm afraid you heard me wrong, right?" Gonggong Pei said with a smile: "What the emperor said is that he wants to give an explanation to the Marquis of Zhennan." ”

"Zhennanhou?" Gu Zhenglin shouted in a hoarse voice: "Aren't I the Marquis of Zhennan?" ”

"You're no longer the Marquis of Zhennan." Gonggong Pei pushed away Gu Zhenglin, who was almost collapsed, and walked towards Gu Lanting: "The emperor remembered the old marquis and General Ziyan last night, and he didn't sleep all night, the emperor said that he had been negligent all these years, and if the marquis had any difficulties in the future, he just went to the palace to report." ”

"Yes, Gonggong Pei, I bother you to return to the emperor for me, just say that Gu Lanting is grateful to his heart, and he will definitely enter the palace tomorrow to thank the Holy Grace!"

"Okay, then our family will go back to the palace to reinstate the decree."

Gu Zhenglin saw that Gonggong Pei was about to leave, so he hurriedly raised his arm to stop him: "Wait, I'll go back to the palace with you, I want to ask the emperor for an understanding!" ”

"That is, how can the words of a eunuch be trusted? Master Hou, I'll go with you! ”

It was the new housekeeper Chen Li of the Hou Mansion again, who jumped out brainlessly at this time to show his loyalty to the master, did he want to ask for merit and reward?

Gu Lanting's eyes sank, and the faint fragrance that seemed to be there floated over again, faintly ...... Her eyes flickered, as if she remembered something.

She turned around: "Grandpa Pei, borrow the sword of your accompanying guards." ”

The sword was unsheathed, glowing with a little cold light, she walked up to Chen Li with the sword, and said with a light smile: "Steward Chen, the jade pendant on your waist looks quite chic." ”

"Hmph, you know the goods! This is 'Qin Xiangyu'. ”

"Where did it come from?"

"I want you to take care of ......"

Before the words fell, Gu Lanting waved his hand, and the sharp blade instantly cut his throat, blood gushed out, and Chen Li only had time to blink his eyes before he fell to the ground.

He's dead......

Everyone in the Hou Mansion was frightened, but no one dared to make a sound.
