The people around couldn't help rolling their eyes when they saw Kou Mingxue was so excited.
What a lunatic, which young lady would have such a polite demeanor?
Even if there is something you are dissatisfied with, you should say it behind my back. Why would you lose your temper in front of others? It is really embarrassing.
"Stop talking now. I remember someone said a while ago that she killed countless servants at home. If you provoke her again, aren't you afraid that she will kill you too?"
No matter how hard Marquis Changping tried, what happened some time ago was still spread.
After all, there is no impenetrable wall in the world. Not only his family is capable, but many families of court officials are also capable.
There are spies everywhere, so naturally they know what is happening in each household.
"Yes, please don't say that. The Marquis of Changping still thinks he is so capable that he can suppress all these rumors and protect his daughter's reputation."
"Yes, no matter how hard he tries, his daughter will ruin the reputation of the Marquisate. In my opinion, such a person should not stay in the Marquisate."
These people looked at Kou Mingxue with more and more contempt, and their voices did not lower at all.
Kou Mingxue heard every word, feeling guilty and angry. She followed the maid directly into the carriage without even having time to say hello.
She clenched her fists. How could she still be so arrogant?
The things that happened some time ago have not been completed yet. That matter is a thorn in her heart. If Marquis Changping knew about it, she would be in trouble.
"Miss, this..." The maid looked embarrassed. She didn't know what was going on with her young lady, nor did she know how to deal with it.
"What's this! Didn't you hear what those people were talking about me? Are you a pig? Get out of here!" Kou Mingxue had no choice but to vent her anger on the maid.
"yes."
Kou Mingxue grew up in a farming family and could not lower her voice under any circumstances.
What she said was heard clearly by people outside, and someone sneered, which made her feel even more embarrassed.
Gu Yunni was laughing heartily beside him. Did he really think that he could turn into a phoenix by flying onto a tree branch?
It's okay to be a lady of the Marquis of Changping's mansion, but it's not easier than being the daughter of a farmer.
Du Changming and the others were not affected. They were not very familiar with Kou Mingxue, so no matter how embarrassing Kou Mingxue was, it had nothing to do with them.
"Yun Ni, since you are in a bad mood, let's go back first. It's getting late today. You can rest early if you go home early." Sheng Mingyu didn't care about anything else and wanted to take Gu Yun Ni away from this dangerous place.
The longer Du Changming stood by, the more uneasy Sheng Mingyu felt.
Who knows if he will have any other bad ideas? As long as this marriage doesn't happen, he will feel uneasy.
Gu Yunni didn't say anything, just nodded and wanted to get on the carriage. She didn't like staying with Du Changming either.
Whenever they sat together, she would think of the trouble Du Changming had caused her a few days ago.
"Miss Gu, how about taking my carriage? My carriage is more comfortable than the prince's. I want to discuss your mother's affairs with you. I heard that your mother is missing, and I want to help." Du Changming did not let them have their wish. He interrupted the conversation between the two and wanted to take Gu Yunni to his carriage.
He couldn't help it. Seeing Gu Yunni and Sheng Mingyu being close, the jealousy in his heart grew wildly.
"Your Highness, please respect yourself! I am the Crown Prince's fiancée, and I can handle my mother's affairs myself. Your Highness will help, and there is no need for anyone else to interfere. Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness." Gu Yunni's face turned cold, and she took a step back, keeping a distance from him.
What she said was also meant to create a sense of distance. The young ladies from the aristocratic families around her couldn't help but gasp when they heard what Gu Yunni said.
Gu Yunni is really brave. If they were in her place, they would never refuse the prince, nor would they dare to refuse.
"Why? I also have many people in Kyoto who may be able to help you more. Although the prince is powerful, he is not often in Kyoto after all, so there are some things he cannot get involved in." Du Changming said this with a hint of contempt in his tone.
In his opinion, Sheng Mingyu had no way of protecting Gu Yunni from the wind and rain.
He felt only hatred in his heart. Why could Gu Yunni only see Sheng Mingyu but not himself?
Isn’t the position of crown prince more attractive than that of heir apparent?
"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I will look for my mother myself. Why do I need help from others? She is the future mother-in-law of the prince. It is his duty to help. But it has nothing to do with you, right? Your Highness, this is really annoying. You can say I am rude, but this is what I really think." Gu Yunni had a very stubborn temper and her words were not polite at all.
Du Changming's face turned extremely ugly, and he felt embarrassed to continue chatting with her. He tried hard to suppress his anger.
I just hope that the next time I meet Gu Yunni, she can speak nicely and not be so cold and sarcastic.
"Okay. Then Miss Gu and the prince must return slowly to avoid any accidents."
"The prince too." Sheng Mingyu couldn't suppress the smile on his face.
Yun Ni is really amazing. I usually don’t know how to deal with the prince, but I didn’t expect that she could stop him with just a few words.
His Yun Ni is as amazing as ever.
As soon as Gu Yunni got on the carriage, she couldn't help sighing, which made Sheng Mingyu frown frequently.
He was so energetic just now, why does he look unhappy now?
It's really hard to guess what a woman is thinking.
"Where is my mother? The last time I chased her, the prince interfered. So much time has passed, and I still haven't heard anything. Is she in danger? She's just an ordinary woman, so naturally she doesn't know more than others. I'm afraid she'll suffer injustice at the hands of those people."
Gu Yunni’s thoughts could not be hidden, especially when it came to her mother.
Although Gu Yunni didn't like to cause trouble for Sheng Mingyu, nor did she want Sheng Mingyu to worry about her own affairs, she really couldn't feel at ease because it concerned her mother.
"Yun Ni, don't think too much. Let's go home first. My men are out investigating. Maybe they have some news by now. I hope we can get good news when we return home."
Sheng Mingyu sighed deeply, not knowing how to comfort her.
I can't say that just because Mother Gu wasn't hurt and I didn't see anyone, I can't make this promise.
I can only place all my hopes on my subordinates and hope that they will be useful.
Gu Yunni was too embarrassed to continue discussing these matters with Sheng Mingyu, so she could only nod and say, "Okay."
Regardless of whether Sheng Mingyu could get good news, he had tried his best.
If the art of divination could not be used on people related to herself, she really wanted to figure out where Gu's mother was.
