But after getting to know this family, I felt that Gu Yunni was too lenient.
She felt like she had swallowed a fly, unable to swallow or spit it out due to nausea.
How did I get involved with such a family?
Now she has to deal with it. After all, people's words are scary, and she can't ignore the eyes of those people outside.
"Pfft! What kind of tea is this? Why is it so unpalatable? The Prince's Mansion is treating guests like this now, are you also using this tea to entertain His Majesty? It seems that the Prince's Mansion may not be as good as the Marquis' Mansion, and the Prince's glory is only superficial."
Gu Yunni and Sheng Mingyu walked out the door together and heard noisy sounds coming from inside.
Either Kou Mingxue was finding fault, or the wife of the Marquis of Changping disliked the tea in the Prince's Mansion.
Marquis Changping and Kou Yun'an didn't say anything. These two women were really hard to please.
"Oh, the wife of the Marquis of Changping is so arrogant that she even dares to compare herself to His Majesty? Do you have to drink whatever tea His Majesty drinks? Don't you think you have the blessing to bear it? Aren't you afraid of His Majesty's blame?"
Gu Yunni was not polite and her words were full of sarcasm, putting a big hat on the head of the wife of the Marquis of Changping.
Isn't that asking for trouble? Then learn how to ask for trouble yourself.
Otherwise, this family always thinks they have a good temper and are always looking for trouble.
"You!" Lady Changping Hou was really no match for Gu Yunni. Just one sentence made her so angry that her face turned blue. She pointed at her and couldn't speak.
After a long while, she finally came up with the right words. "What an unfilial daughter! After all, I was once your mother. I can't even drink good tea. Do you have no status in the Prince's Mansion? The tea in the Prince's Mansion is not good to begin with. Is what I said wrong?"
She said that she didn't want to see Gu Yunni, and that every time she met her, she would be so angry that she almost died.
Sheng Mingyu did not embarrass them and followed Gu Yunni to the front hall.
"Since the wife of the Marquis of Changping dislikes the tea in this prince's house so much, please leave. Your wife is precious and cannot be wronged in this prince's house."
He was not polite in what he said and just drove the person away.
This time, the wife of Marquis Changping didn't dare to say a word.
It would be fine if she offended Gu Yunni, but if she offended Sheng Mingyu, she would suffer no good consequences.
She still remembered that she had made Sheng Mingyu and the other man angry a few days ago, and was therefore confined to her house by the Marquis of Changping for a long time.
"I wonder what the Marquis is here for? Is it just to pick a fight with my Prince's Mansion? The Marquis of Changping wouldn't be so bored. Given his status, the Marquis wouldn't do such a shameful thing."
Sheng Mingyu didn't want to keep arguing with a woman, so he directly turned his attention to Marquis Changping.
He was not a fool, so he naturally understood that if anyone dared to cause trouble for him, it was probably led by Marquis Changping. Otherwise, how could his family come in such a complete group?
"Hehe..." Marquis Changping smiled awkwardly and glared at his wife.
It's all this woman's fault. She causes him trouble all the time.
He wanted to have a good relationship with Sheng Mingyu, not to let her come and find fault with him.
"Your Highness, I've misunderstood. I came here to ask Yun Ni something. Is that convenient?"
Marquis Changping now puts himself in a very low position. Even when he meets Gu Yunni, he has to discuss it with Sheng Mingyu.
He didn't know why he had become so humble. Gu Yunni was his daughter, and he could see her however he wanted. Why did he need to ask for other people's opinions now?
"I wonder what you want to ask, my Lord? Just tell me directly. My time is very valuable, and I don't have the leisure to chat with you here."
Gu Yunni's face looked very bad and her words were rude.
Since you have something to ask, just say it directly. Why bother pretending to ask Sheng Mingyu for her opinion? Does she need someone else to make the decision on her affairs?
Marquis Changping's face turned bad. How could he be so ignorant of the rules? He was not like this before in the Marquis' Mansion.
"I just want to ask you, did you make any bet with His Majesty? Today during court, His Majesty said something to me, and I didn't understand, so I had to come here to ask you."
Marquis Changping did not want to continue to suffer grievances in the Prince's Mansion, so he expressed his meaning clearly in a few words.
He really just wanted to know what was going on.
God knows how much he regretted when he went to court today. He should have taken good care of Gu Yunni in the first place.
Who would have thought that Gu Yunni could be related to His Majesty.
"Yes!" Gu Yunni agreed with a frown.
It was really baffling. What on earth did His Majesty mean? He knew he had already left the Marquis's residence, yet he still wanted to tell the Marquis of Changping all this.
Gu Yunni just thought that the Marquis of Changping hated these things. "It's true that there was a bet, but that's my business. What does it have to do with you? If you hate His Majesty talking to you, then I will tell His Majesty next time I enter the palace."
Anyway, their whole family doesn't like me, and they probably don't want to hear anything about me.
"How dare you!" Unexpectedly, the Marquis of Changping shouted, which scared Gu Yunni and made everyone around her drop their teacups in shock.
Then he slammed the table, "Who is His Majesty? Who are you? You're just a mere woman, and you dare to make a bet with His Majesty? This is simply insubordination! Hurry and apologize! If you don't fulfill the bet, do you know what the consequences will be? Can you bear it?"
This time, the expression on Marquis Changping's face was truly bad, and his tone was tinged with severity.
Gu Yunni was stunned for a moment after being yelled at, and it took her a while to calm down. After Sheng Mingyu reacted, he was furious.
He didn't even dare to yell at it, so why did Marquis Changping do that?
"Your Majesty, you're overthinking it. If something unexpected really happened, it wouldn't involve the Marquis' Mansion. This is my Gu family's business, and it has nothing to do with the Marquis' Mansion. If you're worried that I can't complete it, then I'll go before His Majesty and explain it in detail. There's nothing between the two of us."
Gu Yunni misunderstood and thought that the Marquis of Changping was afraid of being implicated, and she felt very disgusted.
This family is really shameless. When there are benefits, they can't wait to get involved, but when they see any harm, they stay away.
"Bah! I'm worried something might happen to you. I'm a member of the royal family after all. Could His Majesty really take my life? This is for your own good. You should hurry up and admit your mistake and cancel this bet. There's still time. At worst, I can plead for you."
Marquis Changping felt sad. When did the relationship between him and Gu Yunni become so cold?
Although she clearly had good intentions, Gu Yunni felt that she had other thoughts.
Marquis Changping had to explain a few more words.
He only hoped that Gu Yunni could remember his kindness.
