He initially didn't want to mention this matter in front of Yin Kun, but he thought that the teacher also trusted Yin Kun greatly, so the affairs of Duke Zhen's Mansion would likely not have been kept from Yin Kun.
"What? How is this possible?" Liang Zhirui was greatly shocked, not expecting that old fellow to be so bold, daring to stoke the fire at such a dangerous moment.
"Actually, this matter can be seen from Mrs. Ke's attitude. If it weren't for Prince Jing promising her something, or perhaps making some promises to Duke Zhen's Mansion, would those people let Mrs. Ke speak nonsense outside? Without the Old Duke's consent, Mrs. Ke wouldn't dare do this."
Gu Chengyu was only speculating, but he felt he was not far from the truth.
Mrs. Ke was just a stepmother; even if Yao Mengxian was out of favor, she was still the legitimate daughter of the main line of Duke Zhen's Mansion.
