Chapter 434

“Good!” Empress Wei smiled and stroked her palm, “Hanjun will henceforth be known as Gu, Gu Hanjun, a daughter of my Gu family.”

Princess Yongle was already dead, and Fang Hanjun arrived in the capital with the determination to burn the boat. Now that things have happened, the emperor and the empress dowager no longer have any concerns.

Empress Wei could not wait to call eunuch Yu Ping in and asked him to inquire about what the emperor’s intentions were. Based on her understanding of the emperor, she was confident that the emperor would agree.

Although Empress Wei looked confident, Fang Hanjun was still extremely nervous and could not help but look in the direction of the curtain.

Soon, Eunuch Yu Ping came back with a big smile on his face as he conveyed the emperor’s message. “The emperor said he will write a letter of divorce for Her Highness the Eldest Princess Yongle.”

Fang Hanjun: “…”

Immediately after hearing the emperor’s answer, Fang Hanjun was completely relieved, her beautiful face shone with exceptionally bright light, her smile was dazzling and radiant, and she was full of energy.

The nightmare she had in the first half of her life was finally ending.

Fang Hanjun looked at Qin Jiu next to her and reached out to grab her hand heavily, silently expressing her gratitude.

If it were not for Qin Jiu’s proposal, who would have thought of it!

Fang Hanjun calmed her nerves, and thanked Qin Jiu, “Thank you, auntie.”

Qin Jiu: “…”

E…why is Gu Zezhi’s generation so senior!

Looking at her little niece’s troubled face, Empress Wei could already guess what she was thinking, and could not help but laugh.

The atmosphere inside the hall relaxed as if suddenly entering early warm spring from cold winter, as everyone spoke and laughed happily.

On that day, the emperor personally wrote a letter of divorce on behalf of Princess Yongle and officially announced to the court: that Princess Yongle had divorced her husband and her daughter would change her surname to Gu and would be conferred Princess Anya. She was also given a jade certificate and was separated from the Fang family.

This incident caused a shock and uproar in court.

Everyone knows that the emperor dislikes the Fang family, and even more, Dong Ping. As the emperor objects to his marriage with her late sister, Princess Yongle.

However, in this matter of marriage, it was the order of the parents which was the late emperor, the father of Princess Yongle, and the monarch. Thus, whoever he wanted to marry his daughter to, or even someone else’s child, no one would question him!

Someone immediately complained to the emperor, especially several princes from the royal clan who found this absurd. The imperial envoys also came forward one by one, expressing their opposition, saying that there was never a precedent for a woman to divorce her husband in this dynasty. They even mentioned how a child of the Fang family wanted to change her surname; this was simply too shocking.

Some people even said with righteousness that the eldest princess was a royal princess and should be the role model for women, so how could she be so unfaithful and unvirtuous?

Moreover, the eldest princess has already passed away, so why bother disturb the peace of someone already dead. Since Princess Yongle divorced her husband, even her coffin had to be moved out of the Fang family’s ancestral grave.

Upon hearing this, the emperor directly abandoned his work.
