Chapter 287
Gu Zezhi didn’t stay any longer, he curtsied and said, “Your Majesty, since you still have something on your side, I’ll take my leave first.”
The emperor waved his hand and Gu Zezhi left the imperial study, leaving behind all the hustle and bustle in the palace at the back of his mind.
On this day, there was an uproar in the capital, from the honorable courtiers to the common people, they were talking about the separation of the loyal and righteous house of Marquis Qin, turning everyone’s sympathetic looks to the head of the Marquis fu.
Gossip also started to spread, talking about how pitiful the eldest house was and how his legitimate heir was robbed of the title that his son should have inherited, how his eldest son, Qin Zening was suppressed by his uncle and was now kicked out from the fu.
While others said that the Old Marquis intended to pass on the title to his eldest grandson but since he died suddenly, and Qin Zening was too young so the title fell to Qin Zhun.
And some sighed as they lament how Qin Zhun’s mind was too narrow, and couldn’t even accommodate his nephew making him incapable of becoming a greater person.

Qin Zhun, of course, has heard about these discussions outside and this has already beaten him black and blue. He cursed Qin Jiu and Qin Zening to death and couldn’t wait to drive the brothers and sister out of the marquis’s mansion at once.
He locked himself up in the study alone for a long time, until an old servant came and said, “Marquis, the fourth miss was sent back by Yanbai’s people.”
Qin Zhun, who had been walking back and forth with his hands behind his back, stopped and looked at her with a piercing gaze.
The old servant lowered her head a little more, she really had no choice but to report this matter to the marquis even though she knew he was in a bad mood today.
Thinking about it, Qin Zhun’s depressed emotions slightly relaxed as he waved his hand to let the woman go to work.
The servant serving in the studly quickly served Qin Zhun a new tea and cleaned up all the broken porcelain on the floor nimbly.
Qin Zhun soon gradually calmed down as he drank his newly brewed tea. He had just finished a cup of hot tea when the old servant from earlier came back, and looking at her face, the news she had was not good, she tremblingly reported, “Marquis, the third miss said... said, she and her eldest brother together with her fifth brother have been living in the marquis mansion for so many years, and now that they have separated, of course, they can’t take the ‘things’ of the marquis fu.”
“The third miss said that she doesn’t want those deeds.”
Qin Jiu does not want the deeds of his servants, she does not want marquis’ underlings!
Qin Zhun: “!!!”
The corners of Qin Zhun’s eyes twitched as blood rushes to his forehead.
Qin Jiu, this thick-skinned wild girl has the nerve to say that the eldest house doesn’t want anything from the marquis’ mansion since she didn’t ask for it, then if she really doesn’t want anything to do with the marquis mansion she should have also returned the properties they split ah!
Every time Qin Zhun thought of the 70% properties, he had difficulty breathing and had a hard time calming down as the veins in his neck pulsates and his chest heaved violently and felt stuffy.
This Qin Jiu was simply too annoying!
Qin Zhun could no longer sit still, he abruptly stood up from the chair as his anger intensifies and once again walks back and forth in his study room.
He was really unwilling to let go of the eldest house just like that!
And thus, that night in the Qin family’s mansion Qin Zhun’s room was brightly lit up as he stayed up all night, and never went to sleep.
