When news of Gu Chen being expelled from the Gu family for violating the Gu Clan's rules spread, the entire Hebei was shaken.
Everyone was flabbergasted; no one had expected Gu Xiao to make such a resolute decision.
Gu Clan's rules?
Just how strict are they, that Gu Xiao would even give up his own brother?
Isn't the Gu Clan just a budding family?
How do they even have family rules?
No one could fathom why the Gu Clan would take such actions. After all, in their eyes, the Gu Clan's foundation was still insufficient, and such actions seemed like digging their own grave.
However, when faced with the cold hard facts, people could only accept it helplessly.
What followed were tactics typical of old noble families.
But with the examples of those past officials, who now would dare accept bribes?
Now, with Gu Xiao presiding over Hebei, his power was intimidating.
Who would dare to act arrogantly in front of the first founding hero?
