The Full-Leveled Healer Transmigrates to a Real and Fake Rich Daughter Story

Chapter 57 - 57 Impeachment



57 Impeachment

Seeing Gu Yanfei walk straight out of the courtyard without stopping, Mother Su’s heart finally relaxed.

The corners of her lips curled up smugly as she comforted herself, ‘Gu Yanfei really can’t do anything to me!’

...

However, her heart was still beating violently.

Thump thump thump!

She gripped her handkerchief tightly and looked eagerly toward the central room at the back. The room was in chaos as familiar figures walked out of the east room one after another.

Her burning gaze fixed on Gu Yunrong’s slender and graceful figure.

Gu Yunrong summoned an old woman from the Benevolent Harmony Hall and whispered to her to go to the backyard to see if Madam Gu’s medicinal tea was ready.

As she spoke, Gu Yunrong also saw Mother Su outside the house. Their gazes met and time seemed to stop for a moment.

Gu Yunrong was slightly stunned. She saw Mother Su take half a step towards her, but she quickly shrank back behind the parasol tree and secretly looked in her direction, as if she seemed to have suddenly realized something. Her eyes were filled with anticipation and timidity, as if she wanted to approach Gu Yunrong but did not dare to.

They were the eyes of a mother.

Gu Yunrong clenched the handkerchief in her hand, feeling a little upset. Her eyes flickered and she turned around to instruct her maidservant, “Xia Lian, I’m going to stay here tonight to attend to Grandma’s illness. Get someone to prepare salted osmanthus duck.”

“Yes, My Lady.” Xia Lian immediately understood and walked out of the central room. She loudly conveyed Gu Yunrong’s intentions to a little maidservant in green under the corridor. Her voice was just loud enough for Mother Su, who was hiding behind the parasol tree, to hear.

Saltwater osmanthus duck was one of Gu Yunrong’s favorite dishes and was also Mother Su’s best dish.

Mother Su was delighted to hear this and smiled.

She wanted to walk over and say something to Gu Yunrong, but she restrained herself in the end and only stared after her.

Gu Yunrong saw the change in her expression. She watched as Mother Su, who was originally listless, suddenly perked up as if she had eaten a miracle pill.

Gu Yunrong sighed faintly in her heart. Everything Mother Su did was for her.

After a maidservant brought over steaming medicinal tea, Gu Yunrong returned to the inner room with Xia Lian following behind her.

After everyone left, the inner room was empty and quiet. The sandalwood incense in the corner had burned out, leaving only the lingering smell of medicine in the air.

Madam Gu sat alone on the bed. Her face was haggard and vaguely yellow. Her old age could not be concealed, and she looked lonely and desolate.

“Grandma, how do you feel?” Gu Yunrong sat on the edge of the bed and greeted her with concern.

Hearing her gentle words, Madam Gu felt that it was exceptionally appropriate. For the umpteenth time, she sighed in her heart. Why was Rong’er not her biological granddaughter?!

Thinking of how Gu Yanfei refused to even serve her and only knew how to make sarcastic remarks, Madam Gu’s anger began to rise.

Gu Yanfei must have come to collect debts in her previous life. She did not have her in her heart at all, nor did she care about the Gu family!

Madam Gu’s eyes were uncertain, and her already weak expression darkened. She raised her hand and rubbed her temples.

When she faced Gu Yunrong, her expression became loving. She gently patted Gu Yunrong’s hand and said, “Good child, Grandma is fine. My head just hurts a little.”

Gu Yunrong’s tone was softer and more considerate. “Grandma, I’ll get His Highness Kang Wang to invite an imperial physician over to take a look at you, okay?” She frowned slightly, feeling that drinking talisman water was a little unreliable.

“There’s no need to trouble His Highness Kang Wang! Grandma has really recovered.” Madam Gu enjoyed it even more and smiled. “Shangqing Spiritual Master is indeed worthy of his reputation and is talented in medicine. No wonder everyone says that he’s a living immortal!”

At the mention of Shangqing Spiritual Master, Madam Gu perked up and her eyes lit up.

Gu Yunrong stopped persuading her and sighed faintly. “Grandma, you scared me this time…” As she finished speaking, she choked slightly and the corners of her eyes turned red.

Madam Gu reached out and hugged Gu Yunrong, letting her head rest on her shoulder. “Good child, I haven’t seen you marry off in glory. How can I bear to leave!”

At the mention of Gu Yunrong’s marriage, Madam Gu frowned. Madam Fang’s threat sounded in her ears again, and her expression turned cold.

She stroked Gu Yunrong’s shoulder and said, “With Grandma around, I won’t let Gu Yanfei harm you.”

Rong’er had been raised by her personally and she had protected her from suffering any grievances since young. However, ever since Gu Yanfei returned, Rong’er had been stepped on repeatedly in just a few days.

Gu Yanfei was really a jinx!

Leaning on Madam Gu’s shoulder, Gu Yunrong felt warmth in her rippling heart. Actually, blood ties did not mean everything, right? Grandma’s kindness to her was real…

After calming herself down, Gu Yunrong straightened up and took the pot of medicinal tea from Xia Lian. She blew on it gently before handing it to Madam Gu. “Grandma, drink some nourishing medicinal tea.”

People who had just recovered from a serious illness did not have enough energy. Madam Gu had only said a few words, but her breathing was already a little rapid. She took the tea bowl from Gu Yunrong and was about to lower her head to drink when hurried footsteps came from outside.

“Madam Gu!”

The curtain was drawn from the outside and Granny Li hurried in, looking worried.

“Madam Gu, the Marquis just sent someone to pass a message that…” Granny Li swallowed and reported stiffly, “The British Monarchy sent a memorial this morning to impeach His Highness Kang Wang for wanting to snatch the British Crown Prince’s wife.”

Madam Gu’s hand trembled and the white medicine bowl with blue flowers fell from her hand.

“Smash!”

The tea bowl shattered, and brown medicinal tea flowed on the ground. A few drops of scalding tea splashed onto Gu Yunrong’s frosty white skirt, forming a shocking contrast.

Madam Gu pursed her lips tightly, her expression extremely ugly. Her heart suddenly constricted, and she felt a sharp pain in her chest.

“Cough, cough, cough…” Madam Gu felt an itch in her throat and started coughing violently. Her body trembled, and her eyes were sinister.

The British Monarchy actually really did this!

How dare they!

The British Monarchy had written an impeachment letter to impeach Kang Wang for snatching the British Crown Prince’s wife. This news was like a thunderclap on the ground, shocking the court.

For the next few days, the British Duke sent a memorial to the palace every day. Three days later, the Emperor finally summoned Kang Wang, Chu You, to the palace.

In the East Warm Pavilion, a white jade dragon’s ear three-legged incense burner was placed in the corner with a wisp of green smoke curling up. Golden sunlight shone through the transparent glass window doors, making the room as warm as spring.

“Brother,” Chu You naturally would not bow down and admit his guilt. He argued logically, “Both I and the Third Lady of the Gu family are unmarried. Most importantly, we’re in love with each other. How can it be called taking away someone else’s wife!”

“My imperial grandfather once said that marriage can’t only be decided by parents, but also by mutual consent!”
