Gu Minlan probably didn't expect that the topic would suddenly change to this side.

was stunned, and it was still pear blossoms with rain.

"How dare the concubine, she has no grievances and no enemies, why kill her?"

She denied it.

"Mama is really dead?"

I still don't believe it.

The nurse has always been in good health.

How could something suddenly happen.

And she's just a nurse with no real power next to me, who will target her, and even brutally kill her?

I can't figure it out.

Gu Wenlan had been wiping her tears, and when she talked about these issues, she was vague.

But by looking at other people's expressions, I know.

The momentary anger and suppressed anger in my heart were almost uncontrollable and rising.

I was still holding on to a little fantasy just now.

But now that illusion has been shattered.

"How did you die?"

My throat was dry like I hadn't drunk water in a long time.

Every word squeezed out of the throat was like a scorching piece of iron passing through.

The hot throat hurts, and the hot heart hurts.

What happened during the time I passed out?

No one answered my question.

After a long time, an inconspicuous little maid said softly: "When I was found, I was in the pond, and I should have accidentally slipped into it at night and drowned." ”

Drowned?

If there is nothing else, the nurse will never go out easily.

Not to mention doing such a stupid thing and slipping down here?

Good one drowned.

I just brought it over.

Gu Minlan stood there and stopped talking.

She was smarter than anyone else, and knew when to judge the situation, when to speak, and when to stand quietly.

It was a topic she wanted to avoid several times.

But the more this happens, the more I hold on to it.

If she didn't hesitate to answer, it would be nothing, but she hesitated for a moment.

There must be something in it.

"Did you see her before she drowned?"

I asked the little maid.

The little maid is not very old, and the emotions on her face will not be disguised.

When I asked, there was a bit of horror on my face.

Don't dare look me in the eye.

Then he subconsciously shook his head, looked at me again, and then said hesitantly: "Back to the eldest princess, the slave seems to have seen it." ”

But she was glared at by the leading maid beside her.

When it came to her mouth, she silently swallowed it back again.

The eye sockets were still slightly red, and the two hands were unconsciously twisted together.

"What? This palace asks for a question, and I still need to ask you what you mean first? ”

I looked at the maid mockingly.

The maid threw herself on her knees and begged for mercy.

Keep saying that slaves don't mean that, slaves really don't.

In this way, I have heard a lot, and almost all of these people have said this when they open their mouths.

There is no sincerity at all.

I don't bother to care about these people's minds now, I just want to know what happened to the nurse and what happened in my absence.

But when I asked, some people still obstructed me in every way.

"She didn't know, the eldest princess was angry, and she also said that it was an accident, maybe it was too dark and she didn't pay attention to the road, so she would slide down."

Gu Minlan said hypocritically.

The expression on his face was genuine.

Speak in that weary, hoarse voice.

In the eyes of others, she just thinks she understands righteousness.

At this time, I can still comfort my uncomfortable body.

In comparison, my eldest princess, who has always been in good health, is hypocritical, and for the sake of a subordinate, she has been forcing the princess regent.

I clenched the whip in my hand.

The palms of my hands hurt.

But the smile on his face was even heavier.

I smiled, "Princess, you are too gentle, the people around you are not well disciplined, and you may be a bully in the future." ”

"It just so happened that today, why don't you let this palace teach you a lesson."

Before Gu Wenlan could speak, the whip in my hand was drawn.

But it didn't hit the handmaiden.

Rao was like this, the maid's legs were weak, and she still knelt on the ground.

The body shrunk like a sieve, and there was no longer the heart and eyes just now.

When he looked at me, he had horror and fear in his eyes, and then subconsciously looked at Gu Minlan beside him and begged for mercy.

I realized it in hindsight.

I can't complain that I don't like it.

It turned out that this was the person next to Gu Minlan.

Thinking about it this way, it still feels a little familiar.

If you guessed correctly, this is Gu Minlan's personal maid.

"If you don't say it, if you don't say it, the palace just needs someone to simulate the scene at that time, I can look at you, it's about the same size as Mama."

"But don't worry, you're not the same as Mama, this palace will let people watch from the side."

The maid reacted violently.

"No!"

When he came back to his senses, he kowtowed to me vigorously.

"Eldest princess, Fang is the slave's fault, please spare the slave."

"What did you do wrong?"

I didn't eat this, and asked rhetorically, "This palace just wants to borrow you, what are you afraid of, this is not your main culprit, and it is not that you saw what happened to your grandmother with your own eyes, so what are you afraid of this palace?" ”

I scoffed.

But the maid's face was like ashes, and she looked at Gu Minlan begging for mercy.

said that it had nothing to do with them, and said that Mama herself accidentally fell down.

The more I listened to this, the more I felt that it was nonsense.

Gu Minlan seemed to be hesitating.

Probably hesitant to save the maid.

It should be that he wants to save it, but he is afraid of catching fire, so he will hesitate.

Still slightly bent in my eyebrows, I looked at her, and then at Pei Yousheng.

Pei Yousheng's facial features are handsome and beautiful, and that layer of coldness makes him even more untouchable.

He looked at me with a cold, dark gaze.

The thin lips are slightly curled, and the corners of the lips are raised with a subtle curvature, as if smiling but not smiling.

"Princess, what are you afraid of, is it possible that you will be involved?"

I asked unceremoniously.

Gu Minlan's face turned a little pale, there has never been harmony between me and her, but that is only in private.

On the surface, she has always behaved very well.

maintains everyone's beautiful etiquette and maintains a gentle attitude, it seems that she is a veritable talented woman, and she should indeed be sought after.

But I've seen her look different.

I think it's all ridiculous.

It's just a mask.

"Chang'an."

Pei Yousheng's voice was a little colder, reminding me.

The people around him were standing in front of Gu Minlan with long eyes, completely protective.

It's like I'm going to do something crazy.

Gu Minlan looked at me with a little disgust in her eyes, and a little annoyance when she was forced out, but after Pei Yousheng's words, she lowered her eyelids again.

He continued to stand quietly.

Fragile like a fragile object.
