554 You won’t be able to handle the consequences
The carriage stopped in front of a small courtyard.
The second prince’s personal attendant, who had personally escorted Ge Chunying, rode his horse to the carriage’s window.
“Mdm Ge, we’ve arrived. You can get off.”
Ever since Ge Chunying stopped resisting, the old woman no longer tied her hands and stuffed her mouth.
Hearing the personal attendant’s statement, Ge Chunying was a little excited.
She was finally going to see her sister.
She quickly opened the carriage door and jumped down.
When she saw that it was just an ordinary alley, and that in front of the carriage was just a small courtyard, she was stunned.
She looked at the personal attendant in confusion. “Where are we?
“Didn’t His Highness ask you to send me to where my sister is?”
The personal attendant smiled meaningfully. “This is your sister’s house.”
Ge Chunying frowned. “This doesn’t seem like the deputy governor’s office.”
She heard that the deputy governor’s position in the Northern City was not low.
How could their house be such an ordinary small courtyard?
The personal attendant sneered. “Of course this isn’t the deputy governor’s office, but it’s your sister and brother’s house.”
He seemed to have suddenly thought of something. “I forgot to tell you something.
“Your sister was demoted to a concubine by the deputy governor last year.
“Then, she was discovered trying to kill his legitimate daughter in the manor and was immediately chased out by the deputy governor.
“She’s living with your brother and his wife now.”
Ge Chunying’s eyes widened in disbelief. “What did you say? How is this possible?”
Xiao Yuanshi loved his sister so much, how could he demote his wife to a concubine and even drive her out?
She did not believe it.
The personal attendant pointed at the courtyard door. “If you don’t believe me, you can go and knock on the door and see for yourself.”
Ge Chunying saw that he didn’t seem to be lying and couldn’t help but feel nervous.
However, she still didn’t quite believe it.
She hoped that the second prince’s people had found out false information.
She took a deep breath and went to knock on the door.
Soon, a familiar voice came from inside. “Who is it?”
Ge Chunying took two steps back as if she had been hit. How could this be?
Her sister had actually fallen to the point of being driven out.
Then how could she use Xiao Yuanshi to establish a connection with Prince Jin’s manor and take revenge on the second prince?
“Who is it?”
When a voice came out again, Ge Chunying came back to her senses. “Sister, it’s me.”
The excitement in her eyes had been replaced by disappointment, and she became listless because of the blow.
Soon, the door opened.
Ge Chunru, who was wearing a simple dress, opened the door and saw her younger sister standing outside.
Her eyes reddened, and she immediately walked up to her sister and held her hand. “Little sister, you’re here.”
“How did you find this place?” she asked.
Ge Chunying did not know how to answer.
Her sister had already been driven out by Xiao Yuanshi, was there a need to lie to her?
Then, she saw the coachman jump off the carriage and walk over.
She immediately quivered and gave the coachman a warning look.
She forced a smile and said to Ge Chunru, “His Highness’s personal attendant found out that you are living here, so he sent me and the child here.”
Ge Chunru’s eyes lit up when he heard this. Her sister was indeed very favored.
She glanced at the people standing at the door and smiled at the best-dressed man. “Thank you so much!
“Come in and sit.”
If this happened in the past when she was still the deputy governor’s wife, she would naturally not be so polite to a personal attendant.
But now, thinking about it, she felt sad.
The personal attendant shook his head. “I won’t need to go in.
“Our task is to bring Mdm Ge and her adulterer, as well as the bastard they gave birth to, to you.
“Now that we have finished my task, we have to go back and report.”
His master said that he had to tell Ge Chunru about this when he saw her.
Otherwise, Ge Chunying would definitely have asked the coachman to keep this a secret and lie to Ge Chunru and her brother.
His master wanted to cast Ge Chunying and the coachman’s secret relationship on a stone and let Ge Chunru and Ge Chunyi know, so that the coachman could do whatever he wanted in the Ge family.
Ge Chunru’s eyes widened. She thought he had heard wrongly. “What did you say?”
Ge Chunying didn’t think that the personal attendant would be so mean to tell her sister about this matter.
Her face darkened and she turned to glare at him.
The personal attendant ignored her. Instead, he looked at Ge Chunru and said, “Your sister committed adultery with the coachman and gave birth to a bastard.
“Our master is kind and didn’t execute your sister. He even asked us to send her adulterer and bastard to Northern City to stay with you.
“She is no longer the second prince’s concubine. She is a dead person in the national household registry.
“So in the future, our master will not allow you and your family to use the second prince’s manor’s name to do things, or even forget your previous identity.”
His originally smiling face now had a stern warning.
“Otherwise, she will become a real dead person.”
Ge Chunying’s heart tightened.
She knew that the second prince would definitely do what he said.
Now, the questions that she didn’t understand before were solved.
No wonder the second prince had sent her here to seek refuge with her sister.
He had known that she could no longer rely on Xiao Yuanshi.
That man was really ruthless!
Now that he had revealed the truth, she could only remain silent.
After all, she didn’t want to die.
Ge Chunru had a look of disbelief on her face. She had been hit hard. “How is this possible?”
The personal attendant couldn’t be bothered to argue with the sisters. “Anyway, I’ve brought her here and delivered the message. It’s not up to you to believe it or not.
“Mdm Ge, I hope you remember our master’s words. Otherwise, you won’t be able to handle the consequences.”
After saying that, he turned around and asked the nanny behind the carriage to put down the child and then stuffed him into the coachman’s hands.
He then mounted his horse and left with his personal guards.
They didn’t take Ge Chunying’s carriage.
The two old women got off the carriage and left with the nanny in the carriage behind.
The coachman held his son in his arms and looked at his nose and ears, which he had inherited from him.
He was happy.
After all, he had three daughters and had always wanted a son.
And such a beautiful woman gave birth to him.
Most importantly, she was once the prince’s woman.
Although she had never been touched by the prince, it satisfied his vanity greatly.
He also knew that Ge Chunying had offended the second prince, which was why she was being treated like this.
Before he came, the second prince had told him that Ge Chunying would be his wife from now on.
His concubine was dead, so he could do whatever he wanted to her.
The coachman was a male chauvinist to begin with.
Originally, when he knew that Ge Chunying’s brother-in-law was the deputy governor of Northern City, he had wanted to follow Ge Chunying and live a good life, but he had to be humble.
However, now that he knew that Ge Chunying’s sister had been driven out of the deputy governor’s office, and that both sisters were in the same fate, he became more daring.
He walked over with the child in his arms. “What are you still standing there for? Let’s go home first.
“I’ll park the carriage and bring the bags over.”
Ge Chunru had not yet recovered from the shock of disbelief.
She only looked at him when she heard this.
Seeing that he was a slightly ugly middle-aged man, she asked with a bit of disdain, “Who are you?”
This wasn’t his house, so why did he sound like he was familiar with the place?
