1893 Not giving him any face at all

“Old Madam Gu, old Madam Xiao, and Madam Lin. The person who came just now has also explained the matter clearly. I hope that the three Furens can tell this official again so that this official can make a good judgment.” Lord Xu said in a kind tone.

He always addressed them according to their ranks.

Grandma Gu was a first-rank Madame, while grandma Xiao and Mrs. Lin were both second-rank.

Grandma Gu calmly explained what had happened, and Madame Lin retorted, ” Lord Xu, old Madam Gu said that it belongs to her family. I have barged in. If I may ask, Lord Xu, old Madam Gu is acting arrogantly and bullying others because of what you and the two Marquis Gu have done in kun state!

Grandma Gu and grandma Xiao looked at Lin Shi as if she was an idiot.

“No, no, no, Madam Lin, that’s not right,” Lord Xu quickly waved his hands. Just a few days ago, Princess Lin had already used money to buy the street where the Gu family was currently located. Furthermore, after Princess Lin bought that Street, she did indeed put it under the names of old master ye and old Madam Gu!”

Gu Lin was the first Gu family member to be awarded the title of Princess by the Emperor. She did not even have the chance to be a Princess.

However, her title of ‘Princess’ was just a title. She only had a princess’s Manor, unlike Gu Xin, Gu Hui, and Gu Nian, who still had fiefs.

Madame Lin looked at Lord Xu in disbelief.

“It’s true,” Lord Xu explained with a smile. The people from Princess Lin’s residence came to handle the land deed transfer. It was personally handled by this lowly official just a few days ago. Princess Lin said that this was the residence of her maiden family when they first came to the capital. Although they had only lived here for a few months, it was full of memories and they wanted to buy it as a memento. In any case, Princess Lin has earned quite a bit of money over the years, so she’ll treat it as filial piety to her parents.”

Lin Shi was furious.

Why didn’t she know that Gu Lin earned a lot? Not only did she earn a lot, but she also earned money with that wretched girl, Lu Xue!

She had wanted to intervene before, but she didn’t even have the chance to. She was so angry!

Madame Lin pursed her lips and said,”Lord Xu, old Madam Gu, I didn’t know about this either. If I had known that the alley was private property, I would never have stepped in.” I hope old Madam Gu can forgive me for not knowing.”

Master Xu looked at old Madam Gu with a smile. He was screaming in his heart, ” forgive her, forgive her!

Unfortunately, grandma Gu would not let him have his way. She asked, ” “Lord Xu, how should we deal with trespassers and instigating our servants to attack the owner of the house?”

Lord Xu’s smile froze on his face, and Madame Lin clenched her fists.

“Lord Xu?”

Lord Xu rubbed his chubby hands and was about to persuade him when his attendant suddenly brought him a note.

When Lord Xu saw this, he felt that he did not need to be the peacemaker today.

He sat down immediately and started reciting the great Zhou’s laws to grandma Gu.

since it’s recorded in the law, ” grandma Gu said, ” we’ll do it according to the law.

“Alright!” Lord Xu nodded and turned to Madame Lin. Lu Linshi, do you plead guilty? ”

Lin Shi was speechless.

Lord Xu smacked the wooden door.

In the end, Madame Lin was locked up in the capital’s Yamen for seven days. Originally, she was supposed to be locked up for three days as long as she apologized, but she refused to do so. As a result, she was locked up for seven days.

When the verdict came out, the people were in an uproar. The capital’s government really dared to lock up the defender-General’s wife. This was not giving them any face at all!

Those who had thought further immediately realized that Lord Xu wouldn’t have dared to do this without a letter from the top brass.
