"You, sigh, always think long-term. In Father's eyes, this is a good thing, not a bad one."
Zhang Shiyu was furious, exclaiming, "What good thing, bad thing? I can't see that far ahead. What I can see is that it's getting harder and harder for me to get married. Prince Ning already had issues with me because of my sister, and with this rumor, what if he believes it? Once Gu Youyou is gone, he won't even consider me. Father, it's all your fault."
Prime Minister Zhang understood everything clearly, but was helpless against Zhang Shiyu's unreasonable complaints.
Though Gu Wu claimed he was drunk at the time and remembered nothing, he had already investigated the whole story clearly and thought this was a good outcome.
Gu Wu didn't make things up; it was just those two people misheard.
This is the best; when the matter becomes widely known, he would find a way to reveal the truth naturally. That would be amusing.
