"It's all that wild girl's fault. If it wasn't for her, Daddy wouldn't have blamed Cousin Sister and wouldn't have implicated me!" Gu Xi fiercely stepped on the scattered books as her young and tender face was filled with gloom.

As far as he was concerned, all of this was Gu Qingyi's fault. If it wasn't for Gu Qingyi, his cousin wouldn't have angered his father, and he wouldn't have been implicated from speaking a few words on behalf of his cousin. And the culprit behind all of this was none other than Gu Qingyi: "She really is a lost star. The moment she arrived, the entire Duke's Mansion fell into chaos!"

Right, all of this was Gu Qingyi's fault. She didn't know where this wild girl had come from.

Without her, for so many years, nothing would have happened in the entire Prince's Mansion.

As soon as she arrived, the house was in chaos.

"Please calm your anger young master, there are some things you shouldn't say!"

"Young Master, be careful not to have ears on the wall."

"Young master …"

Originally, Gu Xi had gone out to play with Xuanyuan Lian and Mu Ji Yao and hadn't gotten the four of them to wait on her. Although they hadn't personally seen the garden, they had heard quite a bit about it and roughly knew about it. The few of them had been serving Gu Xi since they were young. Since she was called out by the prince to move to the front courtyard, the front courtyard had always only had servants, and no maidservants. Although they didn't say it out loud, their hearts were filled with all sorts of grievances …

As a result, no matter how much Gu Xi cursed, they only listened and didn't try to dissuade her.

However, when they saw that Gu Xi's words were getting more and more outrageous, they all started to panic.

Without mentioning anything else, just Gu Qingyi's identity …

Even if everyone didn't want to admit it, it was impossible to tell that she was the only direct descendant of the Prince's Mansion. As for Gu Xi … Although she was the prince's only son, she couldn't change the fact that he was born from a concubine.

After so many years, although everyone's mouth were still open, their hearts were beating like a drum. The prince might not be that old, but if he was willing to have a child, he would definitely have one. And all these years, even though Feng Yue controlled the entire palace, the prince didn't have the slightest intention of helping her get right. If Lian Feng Yue didn't take good care of her body, Gu Xi would be a concubine for one day.

Not to mention the court ministers, even these servants who did not recognize a single word were well aware of the truth. To put it bluntly, Gu Yinian's punishment wasn't inappropriate today. Not to mention Gu Xi's attitude towards Gu Qingyi, if Gu Qingyi wanted to use her identity as the first-rate daughter to deal with Gu Xi, then even the aunt wouldn't be able to do anything about it.

"Nonsense? Haha … What nonsense did this young master say? Was what I said nonsense? If she wasn't a wild girl, then what was she? What else would she be if she wasn't a lost star? Who could prove that she was his mother's biological daughter? After all these years, who could prove it? Just a few words? "Haha, what a joke!"

Gu Xi was furious. She smiled sinisterly as she roared loudly.

He had heard these words from Mu Jinglei. Originally, he had thought that she had gone a bit too far, but now … He also began to agree with Mu Jingyao's view more and more …

She had disappeared for so many years, and now she suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Who could prove her identity?

Just with a few words of her own?

"Daddy is so muddleheaded, to think that he doesn't even know how to show off like this! He easily believed that she was his mother's daughter! "My mother is Princess Anping. Her identity is precious, how could she give birth to such a …"

"Young master …"

These words were getting more and more outrageous. The four maidservants trembled in fear, their faces devoid of any color.

His Royal Highness had said long ago that he had decided that she was the daughter of Princess Anping. She was also his daughter, the daughter that he had been living in the outside world for more than ten years …

In the beginning, there were also people discussing this, but since the prince ordered it to be carried out, no one dared to speak carelessly about it anymore. However … But the young master … How could he …

If this was heard by the prince or even the imperial concubine, they would be dead.

"Young master, you can't speak carelessly like this. Even if you don't think for yourself, you must think for Aunt Lian and the smiling girl."
