Gu Yunni was already used to it. She rolled her eyes and continued to sit there as steady as a rock.
She didn't come here to see Kou Mingxue today, nor did she have the heart to argue with her.
"Are you deaf? Gu Yunni, can't you hear my voice? This is in the Marquis' Mansion. What do you rely on to be so arrogant? Aren't you afraid that father will be angry?" Kou Mingxue couldn't stand the feeling of being ignored, especially Gu Yunni's attitude.
She threw the teacup in front of her to the ground and got angry at Gu Yunni.
Gu Yunni is a homeless person now, why should she act so superior in front of me?
Isn't it just the status of the prince's fiancée? Sooner or later, I can snatch her away.
"I didn't do anything. You dropped the teacup on the ground yourself. If the Marquis of Changping complains about it later, you can't put the blame on me. I didn't intend to stay in the Marquis' Mansion. I just came here to ask a few questions. You don't need to be so anxious."
Gu Yunni was a little helpless. He didn't want to quarrel with Kou Mingxue, so he had to explain.
Now that she hasn't even found her mother, she doesn't have the energy to dwell on these trivial matters.
If this continues, who knows how long Kou Mingxue will continue to make trouble, and that will be the most troublesome thing.
The wife of the Marquis of Changping also walked to the door at this time. After hearing what Gu Yunni said, she walked in two steps at a time.
"Do you think anyone can enter our mansion? Even if you were the eldest daughter of the mansion in the past, so what? Now you are just a commoner. You must kneel when you see us!"
She didn't want Gu Yunni to stay here, but now when she heard Gu Yunni say this, she felt extremely uncomfortable.
It was as if there was a plague god in the Marquis' Mansion, making Gu Yunni unhappy.
This is the daughter I raised, why do I despise her so much?
Gu Yunni was startled and looked puzzled. There was something wrong with this family.
"Madam Kou, you'd better behave yourself. When the Marquis of Changping comes and sees you acting crazy, he'll start scolding you again. Wouldn't it be better for me not to stay in the Marquis's mansion? Do you want me to stay here and cause you trouble every day? I don't mind that."
Gu Yunni was not someone to be trifled with. She kept on asking questions that wouldn't give in and was also asking questions to the wife of the Marquis of Changping, which left her stunned.
Yes, isn't this what I really think? Why can't I accept it now?
It would be best if Gu Yunni didn't stay here! Otherwise, where would her own daughter go?
"I..." Lady Changping Hou hesitated, not knowing how to answer Gu Yunni's words.
She wanted to win back the game, but it seemed that in front of Gu Yunni, all her composure would disappear.
"What are you guys doing here? You're either throwing things or arguing. Do you have any manners? There are so many servants watching us outside. Are you trying to embarrass our mansion? As a lady, you're acting like this!"
Marquis Changping also rushed over at this time, and was furious when he saw his wife's appearance.
Why is it that no one can feel at peace when they meet Gu Yunni?
It was obvious that the Mrs. Kou he had met before was well-educated and well-mannered, but now she acted like a crazy woman.
"My Lord, you are really wronging me. It was clearly Gu Yunni who was rude. As her mother, what good can I do by giving her a few words of advice? She was the one who insisted on talking back. If my Lord is unhappy, then I will not say anything. However, you still need to discipline Yunni. After all, she is the daughter of the Marquisate. It would be embarrassing for her."
Mrs. Kou didn't dare yell at Gu Yunni like she did just now. She not only apologized, but also coaxed Marquis Changping.
She knew that Marquis Changping didn't like Gu Yunni either, but their family still had something to ask Gu Yunni for. Whether it was by force or soft attack, they had to make Gu Yunni stay, so naturally they couldn't offend her.
And she didn't want her husband to see her as a shrew.
In the backyard, there are many concubines waiting to compete with me for favor. If I make even the slightest mistake, they will step on my feet.
"snort!"
Marquis Changping was already upset, so naturally he didn't want to bother with his wife. He waved his hand and left her behind.
The wife of Marquis Changping also looked unhappy. The Marquis was so disrespectful to her in front of his two daughters.
But she didn't dare to lose her temper. She depended on the Marquis of Changping for her survival. If she lost her temper at this time, wouldn't it be equivalent to cutting off her own retreat?
"Tell me, what exactly brought you here today? If you want to stay at the Marquis' Mansion, we can discuss it, but if it's for something else, then leave immediately. I'm very busy every day and don't have the energy to argue with you about trivial matters. You'd better learn some etiquette."
Marquis Changping took the initiative and was particularly rude to Gu Yunni. His words were always trying to persuade her to leave, which was a far cry from his attitude when he faced her last time.
After all, he couldn't offend the Crown Prince and the Prince, so naturally he could only make things difficult for Gu Yunni.
When Kou Mingxue heard what Changping Hou said, she couldn't help but smile. It seemed that Gu Yunni was guilty today.
Knowing that Gu Yunni did not come here to stay, she felt much more at ease.
The wife of the Marquis of Changping also felt strange. This was different from the Marquis of Changping's previous attitude. Why was he so tough today?
"Oh? Marquis Changping doesn't welcome me? Didn't you beg me to come back a few days ago? Why are you kicking me out these few days? As a marquis, are you so fickle? If this gets to the ears of His Majesty, I guess he will think that there is something wrong with you." Gu Yunni had a sarcastic smile on her lips. If it were in the past, she might still have a hint of doubt in her heart.
But now looking at the appearance of Marquis Changping, she has determined who the real culprit behind the scenes is?
Only when you have done something wrong will you feel so guilty.
Gu Yunni suddenly had the idea of playing around, so she decided to just ask slowly, which would also be a good opportunity to torture the Marquis of Changping.
"What are you talking about? I've been too busy lately, so how did it get involved with His Majesty? Don't say those treasonous words. If they get to His Majesty's ears, I won't be able to protect you. Now, tell me why you came here today."
Changping Hou became afraid when the emperor was mentioned, and he remembered that what he had done had reached the emperor's ears.
The emperor has all-powerful hands and eyes, will he find out about him too? He tried hard to suppress his emotions.
Didn't Sheng Mingyu just come out of the palace? Seeing Gu Yunni like this, she must have talked to Sheng Mingyu and probably knew something.
"It's nothing, actually. It's just that the prince came back today and told me that there are rumors everywhere outside, and they are all about the prince and the crown prince." Gu Yunni spoke slowly, whetting the appetite of Marquis Changping.
After a long pause, she continued, "It's said that His Majesty is furious and wants to find the real culprit. The punishment might be severe, so I wanted to come and ask if the Marquis of Changping has any means to find the real culprit, or if he can provide some clues so that the Crown Prince and the Prince can handle the matter faster."
