Gu knew that now that things had come to this point, her plan had failed and she could only try to save a little bit of her face.

Even if she made a mistake, she would still put the blame on Luo Xuening and Aunt Ye, and she, Gu Lan, was still the high and mighty wife of the Prime Minister.

Gu took a deep breath. She was now suppressing her anger. With the help of her maid, she walked towards Luo Xuening and spoke word by word.

"Ning'er, this matter is ultimately caused by you. If it weren't for you... Well, forget it. This maidservant used to serve your aunt and she was quite pleasing to her. Now, it is really hard to find a maidservant to serve a madman. Let her continue to serve your aunt for a while. After this maidservant is punished, it will be handed over to you to deal with. Just let her make amends for her crime."

Gu said with a look of heartache. What she didn't say actually pointed directly to the fact that Luo Xuening pushed Xia Qingchan into the water. This was definitely an attempt to divert the focus.

Luo Xue Ning glanced at Xia Qingchan, who had been following behind Gu without saying a word, and saw that she had already lowered her head in shame.

It is estimated that Gu Shi doesn't know yet that Luo Xuening has already exposed Xia Qingchan's trick of pretending to fall into the water in front of Gu Shuchang.

Luo Xuening didn't name anyone. Since Gu didn't make the matter clear, she could only swallow this humiliation.

She had just traveled through time, so it was better to keep out of trouble. After all, the Gu family was too powerful, and she did not expect to defeat them in one fell swoop. Naturally, she could not offend them too thoroughly.

Luo Xue Ning bowed obediently, looking like a good daughter: "Yes, mother, my daughter will educate this maid well."

Luo Xuening's eyes were full of coldness. Since this Gu was forcing her to act considerate, she naturally couldn't let her down.

Luo Xue Ning turned around and glanced at the maid just now. The maid's face turned pale immediately, and one hand kept clenching and unclenching. Just now, Luo Xue Ning's clear and logical discussion was too terrifying.

The maid was scared. Now that she was in Luo Xuening's hands, she didn't know what kind of torture she would suffer.

However, Luo Xuening just smiled at the maid in a friendly manner: "You don't have to be so nervous. Mother once taught me to be kind to others. Although you did something wrong, I decided to give you a chance to make a new beginning, considering that you didn't make a big mistake."

It must be said that Luo Xue Ning's voice seemed to have magic. The maid knew who her real master was, but at this moment, she didn't care. She kowtowed to Luo Xue Ning vigorously.

"Thank you, Miss. Thank you for your generosity. I will never make the same mistake again next time."

Luo Xuening nodded: "Okay, you get up first."

With a faint glance, Luo Xuening raised her voice and said, "However, since mother wants to punish you, you must be punished. Considering that you still have injuries on your hands, I will let you bandage your injuries first before you receive the beating."

"Thank you Miss, thank you Ma'am."

The maid was overwhelmed with flattery and kowtowed repeatedly, but Luo Xuening waved her hands impatiently. She really didn't have the leisure to take care of a maid who had hurt her in the past. She just followed Gu's lead and went down the stairs. However, how she would go down would not be entirely in accordance with Gu's ideas.

However, Gu's purpose in keeping this maid by her side was very obvious.

She wanted everyone to see how virtuous and gracious Mrs. Gu was. At the same time, if this maid stayed by her side, she would definitely be a potential bomb.

If Luo Xue Ning was harsh to her, people would have something to talk about how she abused her servants. However, if she made use of this maidservant for the sake of public attention, would Luo Xue Ning dare to use her since she belonged to the Gu family?

Therefore, Gu kept this maid to make trouble for Luo Xuening, and by the way, let this maid be her spy. It is not an exaggeration to say that this Gu is very good at dealing with people. The tactics of this family fight are really very complicated.

Then, she could only use this maid to accuse Gu of being hypocritical. She was so hypocritical that she didn't care about the lives of the servants in the mansion at all, but she kept teaching people to be kind to others. It was simply a joke.

As soon as Luo Xue Ning finished speaking, everyone looked at Gu with a hint of doubt in their eyes. However, due to the great reputation of the Prime Minister's wife, they did not dare to refute her face. However, Luo Xue Ning's indifferent action really highlighted Gu's false kindness and compassion.

Luo Xue Ning accidentally hit Gu on the face.

Gu held his forehead helplessly and said with a dark face: "I heard what the fourth young lady said, why don't you go and do it?"

But Gu was able to control the situation after all. She was used to such little embarrassment. She turned to face everyone and bowed slightly.

"I'm so sorry, everyone. Something happened in the mansion today, which disturbed everyone's interest in the garden. I apologize to everyone here. I still have some things to deal with at home, so I can't accompany you to the garden. How about I invite everyone to the Prime Minister's Mansion to appreciate the flowers another day?"

No one dared to say anything bad, they just nodded and laughed it off.

Until everyone left, Luo Xuening still stood there upright, watching them leave with a smile, so well-behaved.

Many noble ladies, when passing by Luo Xuening, did not forget to take a look at her, their eyes full of satisfaction. This vision of selecting a future daughter-in-law was really undisguised.

Okay, Luo Xuening admitted that she was being targeted by those noble ladies. She looked at the ladies with a fake smile. She really had an impulse at this moment: I am already engaged, could you please behave yourself?

However, thinking of Gu Shuchang, who pushed his fiancée to death with his own hands, Luo Xuening still felt that he was unreliable.

So, she resisted the urge and decided to just look at him. It wouldn't hurt her at all.

"Fourth Miss, my name is Huang Yiyi. You were really amazing just now. I also like the way you solve cases. Can you teach me in the future?"

Luo Xuening had just seen off all the ladies when the bold woman in yellow came again. She looked at Luo Xuening with eyes full of admiration. Luo Xuening knew that she had gained another little fan girl.

"Hello, Yiyi, I just made some judgments based on my life experience. If you like, I can teach you."

Luo Xue Ning had a liking for this cute and flamboyant little fan girl. Huang Yiyi laughed excitedly on the spot and casually handed Luo Xue Ning a piece of paper. Only then did she leave after being urged by her mother several times.

Luo Xue Ning looked at Huang Yiyi's back and couldn't help but chuckle. It had been a long time since she was so energetic.

"My Lord, this Luo Xue Ning is very strange."

Of course, Luo Xue Ning did not notice that Gu Shuchang and the mysterious man who had just left were lying on the eaves at this time. All of Luo Xue Ning's actions just now were seen by them.

The man who was called the prince simply glanced at Gu Shuchang and said, "Yes, she really impressed me."

There was a hint of surprise in his tone. Luo Xuening, no matter her unexpected tricks or her ability to solve cases, were all astonishing. This comment was definitely not derogatory.

Secretary Gu opened his mouth in astonishment. This was the first time he heard a normal comment from the prince.

Your Majesty, you seem to feel a little differently about Luo Xuening.

However, just as the two finished talking, they heard Luo Xuening's maid holding Luo Xuening's arm and calling out loudly: "Miss, what's wrong with you? Someone come, the young lady has fainted."

Gu Shuchang bent his body slightly, his eyes full of worry, because those servants turned a deaf ear to the maid's calls and were not worried about their illegitimate daughter at all.

"My Lord, she fainted, did we?"

"What does this have to do with you? How could Prime Minister Luo let his daughter die outside?"

Gu Shuchang "......"

How come you were so complimentary to others just now, but suddenly became so indifferent? Besides, you can ignore others, but what does it mean to drag me away?

But, Luo Xue Ning is my fiancée, it’s okay for me to go and save her, but you don’t have to drag me away.

Gu Shuchang was dragged away by his family's prince. Looking at Luo Xuening lying on the ground, Gu Shuchang felt guilty. After all, Luo Xuening's fainting was also related to him.

"Prime Minister Luo is here."

Lord Prince Jing just coldly dragged Gu Shuchang's long hair, turned over neatly, and landed on the roof.
