But now it has become a painful memory, weighing on Qing'er's heart and cannot be hidden.
Sheng Mingyu lowered his head and remained silent.
As the saying goes, the most poisonous people are scholars. Many people are like this, as they are unfaithful to talented people.
Gu Yunni turned sideways and glanced at Sheng Mingyu with a smile on her lips, and her meaning seemed very clear.
Unexpectedly, Sheng Mingyu immediately spoke, "Why are you looking at me? This prince always keeps his word. Your status as the prince's consort is already confirmed. If I didn't want to marry you, how could I come before His Majesty..."
At the critical moment, Sheng Mingyu shut up.
There is no need to let Gu Yunni know about these things, nor is there any need to make her worry.
Gu Yunni wanted to know what happened to Qing'er, so she didn't care what Sheng Mingyu was saying.
Turning around, he saw Qing'er and said helplessly, "But you wouldn't have thought that this unfaithful man would have an affair with someone else after passing the imperial examination."
Qing'er gave a bitter laugh and shook her head. "If I had truly passed the imperial examination and been chosen by a beautiful woman, that would have been considered marrying into a prestigious family, and I wouldn't have cared so much. But I didn't expect that just after I realized I was truly in love with him and had saved enough money to redeem myself, I would find out that he had been deceiving me the entire time. He had taken a lot of gold and silver treasures from me and was living in the streets of prostitutes. Where had he ever read any real poetry or ancient books? Forget passing the imperial examination. I'm afraid he would have already fallen into the land of pleasure and could not extricate himself."
When Sheng Mingyu heard this, the corners of his mouth turned up in a sarcastic smile.
Gu Yunni suddenly understood why Qing'er had such a strong resentment.
A prostitute can replace your passion and even crush your sincerity.
All of this is truly unforgettable.
"So you killed him and cast this spell? No, if it was you who cast it, how could you fall for it so easily?"
Qing'er nodded, then spoke doubtfully, "At the time, I was penniless and unarmed, with no way to survive. With nowhere else to turn, I sought him out again, wanting to ask if he truly wanted to marry me. Unexpectedly, when I arrived at his residence, I discovered he had tragically died at home. Within two days, he had turned to a pile of white bones, and above these bones, there was this strange spell suppressing him."
When Qing'er said this, her brows were furrowed and there was a hint of murderous intent in her eyes.
Although Qing'er has always been very resentful of this man, he was after all a man she had pledged her love to and whom she wanted to give a last chance to.
So I want to find out the real murderer and avenge him.
Unexpectedly, not only did he fail to catch the murderer, but he himself was also under the curse.
"You later entered the Changping Marquis Mansion just because you were penniless and had nowhere to go?" Gu Yunni felt that there was something fishy about this matter and asked carefully.
"That's not the case. It was just that the Marquis of Changping's mansion was looking for a maid, so I took the opportunity to go there. As for the reason, it was because of you."
Gu Yunni raised her eyebrows slightly. Because of herself?
"At that time, in the entire capital, only the Marquis of Changping's Mansion was filled with purple energy and aura, with the aura of a phoenix. I heard that anyone who followed you would be blessed. By then, I was already deeply trapped in the curse, and in order to seek refuge, I entered the Marquis of Changping's Mansion. I originally wanted to serve you, but I didn't expect that Kou Mingxue would come and take me away shortly after I entered the mansion."
As she spoke, she sighed, "The most important thing is that you left the mansion again. Kou Mingxue happened to be a woman of bad luck, a natural jinx. This is why the curse on my body has intensified, leading to what happened today."
When Gu Yunni heard this, she suddenly understood.
No wonder the woman fell to her knees as soon as she woke up, claiming that she had saved her.
If that's really the case, then I'm really Qing'er's savior.
"If you keep these bones, it will definitely cause big trouble in the future."
How could Qing'er not know this?
"But if it really burns, we will never be able to find the murderer. People who can use spells are definitely not good people. If we don't find them, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles."
For both public and private reasons, Qing'er wants to find this person.
Gu Yunni was doubtful and stood there thinking.
Could it be that this person has a master behind him? But what kind of master would attack such a heartless man?
There were too many doubts and Gu Yunni was unable to make a decision for a moment.
Qing'er knelt on the ground, "Miss Gu, I know you have a kind heart, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to enter the Xuanmen. You are blessed with great fortune. Keep me by your side today, and I will follow your lead! No matter what happens in the future, I will obey your orders, no matter how hard it is. I only hope that you can help me investigate this matter, give us justice, and protect me."
After saying that, Qing'er kowtowed loudly.
Seeing this, Sheng Mingyu frowned slightly, as if thinking about something.
She agreed to let this dangerous person stay with Gu Yunni, and she probably needed to keep more people by her side.
What Sheng Mingyu didn't expect was that Gu Yunni directly refused. "I have no shortage of people around me, and you were originally a maid in the Marquis of Changping's mansion, taking care of Kou Mingxue's daily life. If you rashly appear next to me now, you know the consequences. I don't need to tell you, so you'd better not have such thoughts."
When Gu Yunni said this, she narrowed her eyes slightly and maintained a firm attitude.
Qing'er thought that she could stay by Gu Yunni's side and get a little peace.
Gu Yunni's refusal made Qing'er a little worried.
"Your Highness." Seeing that things were not going well, Qing'er turned to Sheng Mingyu for help again.
"As long as you can take me away and keep me by the Crown Princess's side, I will follow your lead!"
Among these two people, one must be willing to take me away, right?
Unexpectedly, Sheng Mingyu just shook his head, raised the corner of his mouth, and looked at the other person calmly, "Yun Ni is right, you shouldn't appear in front of us, you'd better go back as soon as possible, otherwise if there is a problem in the Changping Marquis Mansion, they will come to you and you won't be able to explain it clearly."
When Qing'er heard that she had to return to the Marquis' Mansion, her heart trembled and a trace of worry flashed in her eyes.
After a long while, he spoke carefully, "But I have no way to go back. What should I do?"
Sheng Mingyu no longer paid any attention to it.
Seeing this, Qing'er didn't dare to say another word and walked back in despair.
"Why don't you keep the person here?" Sheng Mingyu sat on one side, picked up the cup of tea and took a sip, the fragrance of flowers filled the air.
Sheng Mingyu knew in her heart that if Gu Yunni really wanted to keep the person by her side, she would naturally not be afraid of what happened in the Changping Marquis Mansion.
Gu Yunni had the audacity to deny her identity as the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Changping’s mansion to her face, and even caused a big commotion in the mansion. Now she was just a little maid, how could she not be taken away?
As long as Gu Yunni wanted, he could bring the person here, but it was obvious that she didn't want to.
"Don't you think there's a bit of evil in Qing'er? This isn't due to demonic possession, but rather the inherent evil spirit within her. Besides, I have nothing to do with the Changping Marquisate anymore. I just want to live my own life in peace. If I get involved with them again, I'll just feel annoyed."
