“How could this be?” Madam Cui panicked and shouted, “Son, you must save me!”

“I’ll do my best. Take care of yourselves here for the next few days.”

“Sigh, we will.”

Mrs. Cui grabbed Yang Shicheng’s clothes and pulled him over. She whispered in a panic, “Master, Master, she’s back! She’s here to take revenge on us!

“If she hadn’t stolen all the valuable things in our family, all these things wouldn’t have happened at once!”

“What do you mean? Are you saying that Gu Chengrui is the culprit?” Yang Shicheng asked in surprise.

He believed that Gu Chengrui had deliberately spread the news that they wanted dowries from the Third Prince.

However, he didn’t believe that Gu Chengrui was the person who robbed them. He didn’t have the ability to do so—not even the Third Prince.

“No, it’s Mrs. Gu!” Mrs. Cui then told him about how Mrs. Gu attempted to kill her. She added, “Originally, I wanted to invite a monk over to suppress her soul, but I didn’t expect…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Yang Shicheng stopped her and said, “What nonsense are you talking about? It’s just a dream.”

Many people in this world have done worse acts, but since when have the dead taken revenge on the living? It was simply nonsense.

“Master, it’s true, it’s true! After Mrs. Gu came to me, our residence was robbed the next morning. You have to believe me!” Mrs. Cui tried persuading him.

“Son, it’s better to believe it than not.” Madam Cui echoed.

Then, she remembered Yang Wanning’s abnormality and said, “Yang Wanning, too. Ever since the Gu family came, she’s not as obedient as before.”

“Why isn’t she? Didn’t she follow your instructions yesterday and ask for her betrothal gift from King Rui in advance? Otherwise, this wouldn’t have spread like wildfire and made me a laughing stock.”

“What do you mean?”

Although Yang Shicheng was getting impatient, he still explained it to them a few times.

“She did it on purpose! She must have done it on purpose. Otherwise, with the relationship between King Rui and Gu Chengrui, how could it have been spread?”

“There are many kinds of swordless battles in the imperial court. Since you have revealed your hand, how can you expect it not to be used against you?” After Yang Shicheng finished speaking, he gave them a few more instructions before turning around and walking out.

“Aunt, what should we do now?” Mrs. Cui looked at Yang Shicheng’s back and asked anxiously.

“Shicheng’s official position has been suspended. What can we do?” Madam Cui sagged and seemed to have instantly aged by more than ten years.

She knew very well that if even her son were suspended, the Emperor would only be more ruthless toward the Cui family.

She regretted everything, especially her greed. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have ended up in this miserable state. How would she face the ancestors of the Cui family after she passed? Just the thought of it made her scalp numb.

After Yang Shicheng returned to the residence, he still felt that it was better to believe Mrs. Cui’s ramblings than not.

Therefore, he decided to hire a monk to suppress the soul of Mrs. Gu in her coffin so that she would never be able to reincarnate.

He went straight to Mrs. Cui’s room and took all her silver, surprised to find there were only less than 200 taels of silver.

Ultimately, he even took out the title deeds of all the shops from the family’s assets.

Because he was afraid that someone was watching him, he did not dare touch the money in the manor.

However, when he took out the title deed of the shops, he almost fainted from anger because the manor and shops were now under Yang Wanyu’s name..
