She blushed, looked at Gu Xueting shyly, and bit her lip: "The prince is a man of heaven. I know I am not worthy of him, but I always want to be closer to him. So I acquiesced to it at that time and did not clarify the misunderstanding.

"My Lord, I know I am wrong, but this is because I like you."

Pei Yuan looked at Gu Xueting with misty eyes, looking infatuated, which made Su Chaiyu, who was watching the show, feel very sick.

There was no expression on Gu Xueting's face, and it was unclear whether he believed it or not.

"Pei Yuan, you said you like me?"

This was the first time that he focused his attention completely on her, and Pei Yuan's fingertips trembled with excitement.

She couldn't help but look at him obsessively: "Brother Xue Ting..."

The moment he opened his mouth, something seemed to fall in.

Then, her eyes became empty.

"What is your real identity?" Gu Xueting asked.

He didn't believe a word of what Pei Yuan said just now, but if he used the Illusion Pill right from the start, it would easily alert the enemy and make her defensive. But now was the perfect time.

It is easiest to pry her mouth open when she thinks her words have worked and she is relaxed.

"Qingluan." Pei Yuan spoke mechanically.

As soon as these two words came out, even Gu Xueting couldn't help but change his expression.

Zhizhi told him about her dream - or to be more precise, a fragment of her memory. Wasn't her maid called Qingluan?

It was she who took the poison from the black-robed man and destroyed Zhizhi's face with her own hands! What's more, she later threw the unconscious Zhizhi into the river at the instigation of the black-robed man, intending to kill her! At this moment, a strong murderous intent surged in Gu Xueting's heart, and his eyes were cold and shining, looking at Pei Yuan as if he was looking at a dead person.

But he still has some issues to sort out.

How did she become the seventh lady of the Pei family from a maid? Could it be that she also pretended to be Miss Pei Qi? Gu Xueting asked, "Why did you pretend to be Miss Pei Qi?"

"The black robe asked me to do this. He wanted me to use this identity to take down the Pei family."

"Then who is the real Pei Qi?"

"It's that bitch Shen Yizhi." Even though she was in an unconscious state, Pei Yuan was still extremely jealous of Shen Yizhi.

The murderous intent in Gu Xueting's heart suddenly reached its peak.

Su Chaiyu was afraid that the poison would break out, so he tried to comfort him.

"Don't be angry, don't be angry. Think about sister Yizhi, she is fine now. And Qingbao, the little guy is so cute. When you found out that he is your biological child, were you so happy that you almost went crazy? I liked the little guy very much in the first place, and now he is your son, so he is my little nephew, right? I have to prepare a good gift for him."

Su Chaiyu kept muttering to himself, but his words of comfort were indeed very effective and successfully extinguished the murderous intent in Gu Xueting's heart.

Gu Xueting continued to ask Pei Yuan a few more questions, clarifying all the things that had confused him in the past. However, when it came to the last question, Pei Yuan did not answer immediately, but looked painful.

The question he asked was: "Who is the man in black robe?"

"Not good! Pei Yuan is poisoned. Once some key information is touched, the people behind her will know."

Su Chaiyu immediately injected Pei Yuan with silver needles to prevent the poison from taking effect.

He didn't care about Pei Yuan's life, but if she died, the person behind her would definitely notice it, wouldn't that alert the enemy? How could he follow Pei Yuan's clue to find out the details of the person behind her? This person must die, but not now.

When Pei Yuan woke up, she was still a little dazed, but she heard the thin lips of the person in front of her open: "Pei Qi, don't appear in front of me again, otherwise I will lose control and break your neck."

These cruel words instantly pierced her heart like a knife.

Pei Yuan covered her chest, looked at him with a pale face, tears rolling down her eyes.

Unfortunately, Gu Xueting didn't even give her a glance, and just picked up Xiaoman's nest and left her side.

Su Chaiyu waved his folding fan and said as he passed by Pei Yuan: "Miss Pei, those who do evil will eventually perish. I hope you will take care of yourself."

Pei Yuan lowered his eyes, looking sad, but the hatred in his heart seemed to solidify into substance, rushing out to destroy everything.

After returning to his own courtyard in the Pei Mansion, Pei Yuan immediately drove out all the servants.

"Ah! Damn it! Damn it!"

Pei Yuan swept all the cups on the table to the ground and smashed several vases in succession, still feeling angry.

A blue figure appeared silently, hugged her from behind, and licked her face: "What makes you so angry?"

It was Hua Yuan, the man in black robe who was arranged to be beside her as a guard and supervisor.

When Hua Yuan first came to her, he was still domineering, but later he was gradually subdued by her. Now he has been trained by her to be a dog, a dog that only listens to her.

But Pei Yuan never had any feelings for him from beginning to end, she was just using him.

After Hua Yuan stood on her side, the black robe's control over her was relaxed a lot.

A hint of deep disgust flashed across Pei Yuan's eyes, but when she turned around, she looked charming again.

Now, all she can get is a Hua Yuan, but one day, she will trample everyone under her feet! Even Gu Xueting will have to lie at her feet and obey her.

When she thought of that scene, she felt endless joy in her heart.

"Hua Yuan, didn't you say before that you had planted a nail in Prince Chen's Mansion? I want to know what has happened in Prince Chen's Mansion recently."

If Gu Xueting could find out that she was an imposter, he would have discovered it long ago and would not have waited until now, so something must have happened recently! Hua Yuan narrowed his eyes, "That nail should not be used unless it is absolutely necessary."

It was also his fault that he had been so intoxicated by her tenderness that he let slip and disclosed such a confidential matter to her.

That nail was planted more than ten years ago. His background and origins must be able to withstand investigation, otherwise he would not be able to enter the Prince Chen's Palace.

The superiors said that this nail would be of great use.

Pei Yuan pushed Hua Yuan down on the couch, put her hands into his clothes, teasing him, and coaxed him earnestly: "What if I can use this opportunity to severely damage Prince Chen's Mansion?"

Hua Yuan's eyes flashed, and Pei Yuan knew that he was moved and continued to persuade him.
