Chapter 13: The divorce was rejected
“Princess——”
Butler Wu frowned!
In the past, the princess would never speak so straightforwardly, and she would always leave some leeway no matter what.
But thinking about what the princess had been through these past few days, Butler Wu finally said nothing.
Huo Tang seemed to the other party that this old housekeeper was loyal to the palace and was someone who watched her grow up.
She suppressed the coldness in her eyes and said in a gentle tone: "Steward Wu, I know what you want to say, but now I don't want to see him!"
Hearing this, Wu The housekeeper thought that the princess was still angry, and he sighed: "It is true that Mr. Gu did something wrong in what happened before, but the princess, Mr. Gu has a noble status and is a new genius in Luoling Kingdom"
The young master Gu just had a misunderstanding about the princess before. Now that the princess is fine, the other party comes to visit him. He thinks that the princess should talk to the other party.
It would be better to take advantage of this matter and try to manipulate the other party, so that Mr. Gu can retract his previous intention to break off the engagement.
The other party didn't say anything else, but based on Huo Tang's understanding of the old housekeeper, she knew what the other party was thinking.
She sneered and stood up: "When I was in trouble, this person accused me of the princess indiscriminately. Does the housekeeper think that such a person can be a good home?"
"But, this -" Butler Wu was a little anxious. He also knew that Mr. Gu had gone too far, but the marriage contract between the two houses had been signed long ago. Now there is no one in the palace to support it. If he loses his in-laws in the Gu family again, Another blow to their palace.
He raised his head: "The princess and Mr. Gu have been childhood sweethearts since childhood. Could it be that"
"There is no need to talk about this matter anymore. If Gu Yeming still has some conscience, he will not embarrass me in public. !" Huo Tang interrupted Butler Wu with a wave of his hand, his tone already displeased.
She was impatient in her heart, but she was still thinking about the friendship that had lasted for more than ten years, and she also knew that the housekeeper was thinking about her wholeheartedly, so she had the patience to tell him this.
But this does not mean that the other party can interfere with her affairs.
Guard Wu, who is as good as his master, can naturally hear the tone of the princess at this moment.
He fell silent, inevitably shocked.
When the princess took charge of the palace, she was thirteen years old. Over the years, she always discussed everything with him. This was the first time that the princess' tone was so firm.
He was shocked and realized that he had lost his duty as a servant.
I feel a little disappointed but also a little relieved at the same time!
He nodded: "Since the princess has made up her mind, the old servant will return to Master Gu now!"
The princess is the master of the palace. Although he has his own considerations, We should trust the princess's own decision.
"Go, it's not just him, give the order, these days the princess has been ordered to stay and reflect, no one will be seen!"
Huo Tang waved his hand, motioning for the other party to go down.
Butler Wu bowed and left, but then came back in again, his face uglier than before.
"Princess Princess, the Princess of the Gu family said that she came here to ask you to break off the engagement, return the marriage letters written by the two families, and return the tokens from that year. If you don't let him enter the house, you will be let out. Talk to him!"
As he spoke, Butler Wu's face turned pale: "That's too much!"
He thought that the young master of the Gu family was here to apologize. I think the other party still has such an idea and wants to call off the marriage completely.
Huo Tang was not surprised and replied: "No, you went and told him that the princess is currently under grounding. If you have anything to do, wait until the matter is over!"
How can it be so easy to break off the engagement? easy! ! ! She will withdraw from the marriage, but not by the other party!
There was no way she would let him break off the engagement so easily.
"Princess, you are not." Butler Wu was puzzled.
The princess' previous attitude was that she was cold towards the young master of the Gu family. Why is she unwilling to talk to him about this matter now?
Although he was angry at what Mr. Gu did, since he was so ruthless and unjust, and the princess had no intention of him, why not take advantage of this time to completely terminate the engagement between the two families, so that they would no longer be involved in it? .
“If this princess agrees to his divorce, coupled with what he has done before, the people of Lingdu will only think that this princess is disliked by Gu Yeming and is no longer wanted by him. The engagement has just been annulled, what will happen to my princess’ face then?”
Huo Tang sneered.
Steward Wu was startled. After hearing what the princess said, he understood the danger involved.
What this young master of the Gu family did was really despicable, and he did not care about the long-standing friendship between the two families. Everything he did was to discredit the princess and make others laugh at her! ! !
"The princess is wise, but the old slave is confused!"
He broke into a cold sweat and almost killed the princess. If the princess hadn't seen all this clearly, after today, they The real discussion in the palace is a joke.
He looked worried: "However, Mr. Gu is really not a good man. If he does not break off the marriage, in the future..."
Huo Tang felt that he was indeed not smart. She said, "This matter is not the case. The princess has already found a way to get married, and I will withdraw, but when the time comes, it will only be him, Gu Yeming, who will be embarrassed. Now you do what the princess just said. If he dares to make trouble in front of the palace, he will be killed. Teach him a lesson!”
Steward Wu was convinced by the princess and did not hesitate this time and immediately followed her instructions.
"She doesn't want to see me?"
After hearing what Butler Wu said, Gu Yeming pondered, with a complicated expression on his face.
Huo Tang doesn’t want to break off her engagement?
After all, the two have been in a relationship for more than ten years, and he was a little reluctant to let go. He didn't want them to reach this point.
However, he already had his heart set on something, and he really had no feelings for Huo Tang, not to mention that he had promised Qing'er that he would marry her.
Only a talented woman like Qing'er is a suitable partner for him, and the two of them can go further in the future.
He said coldly: "My son and your princess are already in love, I have canceled the engagement between our two families, and the elders in the family have also agreed, so she can't solve the problem by avoiding her like this!"
Steward Wu suppressed his anger and said calmly: "The engagement was agreed upon by both families together. Now even if we want to break off the engagement, we can't just let Mr. Gu's family say it. After my princess is grounded, As soon as the day is over, I will discuss this matter with Mr. Gu. As for Mr. Gu who disregarded the friendship between the two families and arbitrarily proposed to break off the engagement on the street, then Mr. Gu should also give our palace and give the princess an explanation! "
After Butler Wu finished speaking, he didn't want to talk to the other party and directly ordered the concierge to close the door: "The princess has been banned. It is not convenient for the palace to entertain guests!"
The door was closed tightly under Gu Yeming's ugly face, and Butler Wu had already left. He went to the backyard and reported the matter to Huo Tang.
"He is the one who wants to break off the engagement now. I am not in a hurry. I will let him go first!"
Huo Tang smiled, lying on the chair and rocking lightly
"I remember, Princess, there will be an open martial arts competition in Lingdu half a month later. The winner can have the Holy Emperor issue an imperial edict, right?"
"Yes, Princess, there are a few in our mansion. Excellent candidate, will also participate this time! ”
Butler Wu didn't know why the princess suddenly mentioned this matter, but he still answered truthfully.
"Okay, you go and ask someone to sign up for this princess. I will participate in the competition in half a month!"
