After Kicking Over the Scumbag, the Whole City Wants to Marry Me

Chapter 480

Zhao Changdu strode into the inner hall with his long legs, hooked the corners of his mouth contemptuously, and said to Huai An behind him, "Huai An, first ask my father-in-law out, I, this grandson-in-law, have something to talk about in private with Grandmother."

Huai An was also hearing for the first time that the mother-in-law actually dealt such a vicious hand to her own daughter-in-law. It was really shocking!

He glared at Gu Old Madam in disgust, "That's right, sir, Master QingFeng is already waiting in the courtyard of Yongshou Hall, when should I invite him in?"

"Wait for my order."

"Yes."

Like a zombie, Gu Boqing was helped out by Huai An.

Zhao Changdu carelessly looked over the old lady with slightly disheveled hairpins.

The old woman, who had just been full of anger, now had frightened eyes, dodging gazes, and was nervously pinching her cane.

Although her old face was full of fear, she still straightened her hunched back and sat down on the Luohan bed.

Zhao Changdu lazily sat in the round chair at the bottom, looking at her with cold eyes, "The old lady should understand that I, the prince, am neither Gu General nor A Ying, and I have no blood relationship with you, right?"

Gu Old Madam's throat tightened as she looked fiercely at Zhao Changdu with her sharp old eyes, "You...what do you want to do? So what if I harmed Ye Zhuoning! I am his Gu Boqing's own mother, her Gu Ying's own grandmother. They don't dare to do anything unfilial! Otherwise, even as a ghost I will not let go of this father and daughter!"

Zhao Changdu narrowed his phoenix eyes, and a thick, icy black mist appeared in his eyes.

"Then have you ever thought that Ye Zhuoning would not let you go either?"

"That cheap woman has an ominous fate. She killed my old man!"

"You don't need to argue with me," Zhao Changdu smiled mockingly, with a faint arc on his thin lips, but no smile reached his eyes. "I don't care about these things. What I care about is evil begets evil, to comfort A Ying's heart."

Meeting the man's cold gaze, Gu Old Madam's back went cold.

Zhao Changdu didn't have much patience for her. He crooked his thumb and pressed it against his brow, "Huai An, bring Master QingFeng in."

Huai An yelled outside, "Yes!"

Soon, Master QingFeng was dragged in by two Qilin Army soldiers.

At this time, he had already undergone heavy torture and was lying limply on the ground covered in blood, with two oozing eyeballs rolling around. Seeing Gu Old Madam suddenly standing up from the Luohan bed, he shouted for help.

The old lady's face was pale. After all, she was an inner court lady and had never seen such cruel punishments before.

Zhao Changdu lazily gave Huai An a signal.

Huai An nodded, walked over, and stuffed a black pill into Master QingFeng's mouth.

"Sir asked you something, you just say it, otherwise you will die immediately with your intestines ruptured."

Master QingFeng was just an ordinary person who loved money more than life. He quickly said, "I'll say everything! I'll say everything! As long as the prince spares my life, I'll say anything!"

Zhao Changdu's eyes were covered with a layer of coldness, "How did you come to know of Ye Zhuoning's birth date and eight characters?"

Master QingFeng hurriedly said, "It was the old lady who gave them to me!"

"Oh? Her birth was a great fortune. How did you happen to blurt out that she was an ominous person?" Zhao Changdu's smile turned cold.

Master QingFeng bit his lip and hesitated for a while.

Zhao Changdu was displeased, his sword-like brows slightly furrowed, "Huai An."

Frightened by Huai An, Master QingFeng had also been stared at by the overbearing prince sitting above until he broke out in cold sweat all over. He had to confess everything, "Prince, spare my life! It wasn't intentional for this little one to harm Madam Gu! It was just... when I first saw Madam, I was stunned by her heavenly beauty and developed indecent thoughts. I didn't expect Madam to refuse me... She even said she would report me to officials if there was a next time. I was anxious and thought of a way to fix her. So I told the old lady about her inauspiciousness. I didn't expect the old lady to actually believe it! The old lady also said she looked exactly like a bewitching vixen who would confuse Second Master Gu in the future! I really didn't say much, it was all what the old lady thought of to harm Madam. Those soul-suppressing nails were also made by me under the old lady's order. I... didn't really want Madam to die!"

When these words came out of Master QingFeng's mouth, Gu Old Madam stared in disbelief with widened old eyes.

Zhao Changdu was contemptuous in his heart. He didn't expect the truth to be so absurd!

If A Ying knew her mother had died because of her beauty and kindness, she would surely be even more heartbroken and sad.

Thinking of A Ying and the child still waiting for him at the manor, his patience was exhausted. He slowly got up, put his hands behind his back, and looked down at Master QingFeng, "Huai An, since Master QingFeng is good at sacrificing the living, lock him in a coffin and bury him where the mother was buried. If he can escape, it will prove his ability. If he can't escape, it is Heaven's will for him to die. Go do it now."

When Master QingFeng heard this, he was thrown into chaos. He cried and clutched Huai An's clothes, "Prince, spare my life! Prince, spare my life!"

Huai An, annoyed by the noise, directly had his jaw dislocated and dragged him out.

As for Gu Old Madam, Zhao Changdu did not plan to get his hands dirty. He looked up at the old lady and said indifferently, "A Ying has always hoped you could be a little kinder to her, unfortunately, you didn't cherish this opportunity."

Gu Old Madam's eyes moistened, and her aged and weary face was full of regret.

"If you had loved her, I could have let you live," Zhao Changdu ignored her pity. "But now it seems you have no reason to live either."

Gu Old Madam's body trembled. She couldn't even stand steadily. "Prince Zhao, if you dare kill me..."

"I won't kill you," Zhao Changdu interrupted her with a faint smile. A chilling aura appeared on his exquisitely handsome face. "I will give you a chance to choose for yourself."

Gu Old Madam thought there was still hope. She couldn't believe it and raised her head.

Zhao Changdu said faintly, "Kneeling outside are your beloved eldest son Gu Boyan and your dear grandson Gu Ming for many years. If you want them to live, kill yourself. If you want to live, then tomorrow this prince will personally send them on their way."

When these words fell, Gu Old Madam's body went limp and collapsed on the Luohan bed. When she raised her head again, it was full of tear stains and despair.

Zhao Changdu gave the death order and left Yongshou Hall. He had the yard surrounded.

Gu Boyan and Gu Ming, still unaware of what was happening, knelt outside. Seeing the prince come out, they wanted to ingratiate themselves but were frightened silent by the man's cold glance.

Gu Ming was a little scared, "Father, what exactly happened to Grandmother?"

Gu Boyan had just gotten off duty at night and didn't know what had happened in the manor. He was directly brought here by Zhao family members. Although he had doubts in his mind, he didn't think too much about it. He thought that since it was Prince Zhao himself coming to the manor, it must be about Gu Ying. Otherwise, who could trouble such a big shot.

He comforted, "It should be nothing. Your second uncle is here, your grandmother will be fine."

Gu Old Madam wept and wanted to go out to see them, but was stopped by two expressionless Qilin Army soldiers.

Inside the room, only a white kerchief and a bottle of poison wine were left.

And her, an old lady with no one to turn to.

She looked listlessly at the two murder weapons, and only at this moment did she finally realize she had done wrong...

But now, there was no way back.
