After a pause, the Marquis of Changping's eyes fell on Kou Mingxue again, and he said to Madam Kou with disgust, "Your good daughter is truly a jinx!"
After saying that, he snorted coldly and walked away.
Mrs. Kou fell into the chair, tears silently falling again.
She couldn't understand why her own daughter was such a jinx. Could it be that she had done too much evil in her previous life?
However, what made her even more devastated was the words of the servant who came over to report.
"Madam, it's bad, the young master is sick again! Please go and see him quickly——"
"What did you say?"
Mrs. Kou stood up immediately, her face full of disbelief!
The disease that Kou Yunan had in her pregnancy had not occurred for nearly ten years. Why did it suddenly occur again today?
Her eyes involuntarily fell on Kou Mingxue, and at this moment she couldn't help but wonder if this was really the reason for Mingxue's return?
"Madam, please go quickly. The young master is afraid that—"
The servant said with difficulty.
Mrs. Kou didn't even care about her sadness and hurried to the backyard.
In a flash, silence returned to the hall.
Kou Mingxue, who was left inside unattended, suddenly opened her eyes. She clenched her hands so tightly that her nails dug into her palms, revealing mottled bloodstains!
At this moment, she not only resented Gu Yunni, but also resented the Changping Marquis Mansion!
She was really unwilling to accept it!
Marquis Changping and Madam Kou were clearly her biological parents, but they abandoned her when she was young, and now they treated her like nothing!
She absolutely could not tolerate being treated like this!

The next day, early morning.
As soon as Gu Yunni got up, she heard a violent knock on the door outside.
She lazily opened the door, suddenly feeling a strong premonition approaching. She moved her body and instinctively dodged, then looked up to see a basin of scarlet liquid rushing straight towards her face.
Fortunately, she dodged quickly and managed to escape, but she was badly hurt on the muddy ground and wooden door!
It was covered with red and looked horrible.
"You evil monster, you actually dared to possess my daughter, and now you dare to hide! Someone, come and pour another basin of black dog blood!"
Hearing this familiar voice, Gu Yunni raised her eyes and met the fierce gaze of Marquis Changping.
Gu Yunni said coldly, "My Lord, if I haven't forgotten, there has been no relationship between you and me since yesterday. Why did you come to my door today and splash black dog blood? What's your intention?"
People gathered around to watch the excitement, but the Marquis of Changping remained unfazed. He sat atop his majestic horse and spoke condescendingly, "It doesn't matter? Just saying 'it doesn't matter' doesn't mean you can sever the Marquis's kindness in raising you for so many years!"
After a pause, he said coldly, "Although Yun Ni and I have no blood relationship, I personally raised her, so I naturally know her temperament. However, since yesterday, not only has her temperament changed suddenly, but strange things have also occurred frequently in the mansion. First, my eldest son suddenly fell ill, and then my little daughter Mingxue suffered extreme misfortune. I had no choice but to find a master to calculate, and he told me clearly that all this is inseparable from you. It is because Yun Ni was possessed by you, a demon, that these things happened!"
Gu Yunni tilted her head and sarcastically said, "If I remember correctly, didn't you say yesterday that the theory of destiny is not to be believed? Why did you turn around and look for the master? Are you admitting that the child swap was indeed done by Madam Kou?"
The Marquis of Changping seemed to have not expected Gu Yunni to come back with such a sharp tongue. His face froze for a moment, then he snorted coldly, "Some things can't be completely believed, but they can also be disbelieved. The master said with his own mouth that you are possessed by a demon. If I allow you to stay here, I'm afraid it will not only hurt Yunni, but also affect the people around you. Therefore, I must capture you today, and you won't be able to escape!"
The people around were originally watching the fun, but they didn't expect that they would be involved in the incident, and they all started to speak up at once.
"This girl is so beautiful, could she really be a monster?"
"Yes, the Marquis and the Master said it themselves, how could it be false? Besides, it's better to believe it than not. We can't be neighbors with such people!"
"That's right. If that's the case, we really can't let this girl live here! Otherwise, I'm afraid it will get us into trouble!"
Seeing that the people around him were incited by his few words, a hint of pride flashed in Changping Hou's eyes.
Last night, the mansion was in chaos because of Kou Yunan's sudden illness. He couldn't sleep all night, and at the same time, he became more and more convinced that Gu Yunni was a lucky star.
And the Marquis of Changping's Mansion must not leave her!
So he brought people here early this morning. Yesterday, he was worried that there were people from different factions in the mansion, so he could not use tough measures.
But today he must bring Gu Yunni back to the Marquis' Mansion.
The idea of him being a monster is naturally just an excuse!
But it’s good as long as it works!
The Marquis of Changping waved his hand and shouted sternly, "Come here, capture this evildoer immediately. I will personally interrogate this evildoer!"
Seeing the guards surrounding the yard, a fierce look flashed in Gu Yunni's eyes. It seemed that there would be a fierce battle today!
Just as she was about to bite her finger, a lazy voice suddenly rang out.
"My Lord, you are so arrogant! You actually came to the house of my fiancée and acted like a wild beast!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the narrow alley was blocked by a group of people, and the person leading the group, riding a tall horse, was none other than Sheng Mingjue, who had returned to the capital yesterday!
He was dressed in white, with a high crown and jade belt, and was unrestrained and uninhibited, bright and flamboyant.
A strange look flashed in the eyes of Marquis Changping, and he looked between Sheng Mingjue and Gu Yunni in surprise and suspicion.
How could these two people who have nothing in common be connected?
The Marquis of Changping spoke for a moment and asked cautiously, "So you are the Prince of Anguo. I wonder who the fiancée you are talking about is?"
The man in front of him is not only the Queen's nephew, but also a favorite of His Majesty. It is said that he did not report to the palace before returning to Beijing yesterday, but the Emperor did not care and instead rewarded him with many treasures.
Even the Marquis of Changping would have to keep a distance from such a powerful figure.
After all, the Marquis of Changping's Mansion has no real power, but the Duke of Anguo's Mansion is extremely powerful!
Sheng Mingjue raised his slender finger and pointed it in the distance, accurately landing on the graceful Gu Yunni.
"Yes, it's Miss Gu Yunni, the one the Marquis slandered as a monster!"
The Marquis of Changping's hope was instantly wiped out. He said in disbelief, "Prince, please don't be ridiculous. How—how is this possible?"
