"Sister Chu, that's not what I meant. I clearly meant..."
"Zhixia, show the guest out." Chu Qingniang said no more and turned to walk towards the inner room.
Zhixia immediately stepped forward and made a 'please' gesture, "Miss Gu, please!"
Seeing that her plan had been exposed, Gu Yanran finally tore off her disguise and shouted angrily into the house: "Chu Qingniang, what do you think you can gain in court tomorrow by yourself? Qi Che wants Princess Shang now!"
"Miss Gu, please don't worry about this." Zhixia's ruthless voice sounded.
"You should worry more about yourself."
Gu Yanran was helpless. She stomped her feet angrily and turned away.
After everyone left, Zhixia entered the room and sneered, "Miss, this Gu Yanran is too shameless. She was so arrogant in front of us as a victor, but now she wants to join forces with you. Is she worthy of it?"
Chu Qingniang sat in front of the dressing table and slowly took off her earrings. "She doesn't want to join forces, she just wants me to be the first to do it."
Zhixia was even more contemptuous, "He doesn't even look at his own status and actually wants to drag you, young lady, into the limelight. He is simply going against the will of heaven. I heard that Madam Gu is a person with excellent education and knowledge, but I don't know how she gave birth to a daughter like Gu Yanran." Zhixia complained dissatisfiedly.
Chu Qingniang smiled, "Madam Gu is indeed a wonderful person, but everyone is different. Madam Gu is excellent, but it does not mean that the daughter she gave birth to will be as excellent as her.
If this were true, there wouldn't be so many scoundrels in this world."
Zhixia shook her head and retorted, "That's possible. Gu Yanran is not Madam Gu's biological daughter at all. I heard that Madam Gu gave birth to her in a temple and it was difficult to give birth. It's possible that Gu Yanran is a fake."
Chu Qingniang was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "You really dare to say anything."
"The Prime Minister's Mansion is a noble mansion after all. Madam Gu always travels with a carriage and guards. How could it be so easy to switch a child?"
Zhixia was a little uncertain, but didn't continue the topic.
But he was thinking to himself that after returning to Beijing, he must find a chance to investigate. Who knows, maybe he could really uncover some of the past events of the Gu Mansion.
Little did he know that Zhixia's seemingly unintentional action would actually come true one day in the future!
