Chapter 1031
As he was talking, Caiping opened the curtain and came in to report: "Miss, Zhou Bingde is back and is waiting in the courtyard to be summoned by the lady."

In the past, when Caiping replied, he would always cross the door curtain, stand in the inner room, glance at Gu Yuqing, and then kneel down to reply.

Today, half of his body was standing outside. From Gu Yuqing's perspective, half of his face was covered by the curtain.

The drooping cheeks were slightly red.

Seeing her like this, Gu Yuqing couldn't help frowning, "Come in and talk."

When Caiping heard the news, she immediately froze, "I just want to tell you that Zhou Bingde is waiting outside, and I have other things to do at hand."

Caiping answered like this, and now even Ji Xiang Ruyi had doubts in his mind.

Caiping has never disobeyed the lady's wishes. Today he just asked her to come in and reply, so why did he just find an excuse?
"The lady asked you to come in. Naturally, she has something to tell you. Whatever you are doing is more important than the lady's order, why don't you come in quickly!" Ruyi immediately said to the color screen.

Although we usually have a great relationship together, she doesn't allow others to have the slightest thought for Gu Yuqing.

As soon as Ruyi finished speaking, Caiping bit her lower lip. Her feet didn't move, but she tightly clenched the door curtain at her hand into a ball.

Gu Yuqing's eyes were fixed on the color screen for a moment, and she skipped the door curtain to see that her pale face was still flushed and her cheeks were still red.

Ji Xiang glanced at Gu Yuqing, raised his foot and pulled up the color screen, "What's wrong with you today..."

Before he finished speaking, Jixiang suddenly paused and screamed, "Oh my God! Caiping, what happened to your face? Who hit it!"

Ji Xiang said while dragging the color screen in front of Gu Yuqing.

"Miss, look at Caiping's face!" He said, raising Caiping's chin without any explanation.

Ruyi saw at a glance that there were five distinct finger prints on the left and right sides of Caiping's plain face. She couldn't help but feel a twitch in her heart and secretly regretted that she had just misunderstood Caiping.

Gu Yuqing looked at the blood-red finger marks on Caiping's face, with a sharp look in her eyes, "What's going on!"

Anger suddenly rose from his chest.

Caiping is the maid in front of her, and she is the granddaughter of Nanny Huang. Who dares to hit her in the Chinan Marquis Mansion!
Even though he already had an absolutely certain answer in his heart, Gu Yuqing still waited for Caiping to answer.

"No...it's okay." Caiping turned away from Jixiang, raised his neck and lowered his head, and muttered. As he spoke, big tears fell on the shoes, staining them all over.

The look in Gu Yuqing's eyes became colder and colder, "You have ten red blood marks on your face, and you tell me it's okay? Do you think I'm stupid or blind!"

"You are my maid. No one in this house except me has the right to hit you. Even the young master will never touch you because of me!"

"This is the Marquis of Chinan. I have been wronged in my own home and I don't even dare to talk about it. Do you think you are sharing my worries by enduring the grievances?"

"Others will only think that I am incompetent. I can't even protect my maid in my own home. This makes people more powerful and thinks that I am easy to bully!"

Gu Yuqing was angry at others for being arrogant and arrogant, and even more angry at Caiping for being cowardly.

Obviously looking at the shocking face on the color screen, my heart ached, but the words came out with involuntary anger.

"I don't dare!" Caiping was frightened by Gu Yuqing's momentum and immediately knelt down.

Gu Yuqing slapped the table, "If you don't dare, just tell me who hit me!"

Gu Yuqing slapped the table with extra force. Caiping was so frightened that she trembled. Without even thinking, she blurted out: "Miss Wanjun, that maid with the mole between her eyebrows!"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Caiping immediately regretted...causing trouble for the young lady again, "Miss, your face looks scary, but it actually doesn't hurt, my slave..."

Gu Yuqing blocked Caiping's words and only asked: "Why did she hit you?"

Caiping only felt that he had caused trouble for the young lady, and was speechless for a while.

Ji Xiang stood beside her, furious, "You're telling me, you're beating me up like this, and you're saying it doesn't hurt. You're not thinking about the young lady. You're clearly helping the real murderer commit the crime against the young lady!"

The color screen was stunned for a moment, looking up at Jixiang with eyes full of confusion.

Ji Xiang looked at her confused look and gritted his teeth with hatred, "As the saying goes, beating a dog depends on its master. You are the lady's maid, and the lady is the master of the Chinan Marquis Mansion. Why do they beat you so well? Isn't that why they beat you? Step on the lady!"

"You idiot, you refuse to say anything, aren't you just helping them to trouble the young lady!"

Caiping stared at Jixiang blankly, thinking in her mind, it seemed that Jixiang's words made sense.

Turning his head to look at Gu Yuqing, he saw that Gu Yuqing had a sulky look on his face. Only then did he realize it later, and his face immediately turned red.

"The slave just went to the kitchen to return the food box. Miss Wanjun happened to bring her maid to the kitchen to ask for some matsutake soup."

"The kitchen steward told Miss Wanjun that there were no matsutake mushrooms in the house. Miss Wanjun didn't believe it, so she said that the kitchen steward must have been influenced by the lady and deliberately criticized their grandparents."

"The servant heard that she had wronged the lady for nothing, so she rushed up to explain. She asked the servant who she was, and became more and more angry, so she asked the servant in front of her who had a mole between his eyebrows to beat the servant."

As the last sentence fell, the color screen finally came to its senses.

Wanjun became even more angry after knowing that she was the person in front of the young lady.

Let's put it this way... It was true as Miss and Jixiang said, Wanjun hit her because he was aiming at Miss.

She was confused... Annoyed and angry, Caiping only lowered her head and said, "I am a useless servant."

After listening to what she said, Gu Yuqing sighed sadly, stood up and helped the color screen up, and told Ruyi, "Take her to apply some medicine, don't get any scars!"

Ruyi accepted the order and left with the color screen.

As soon as they left, Gu Yuqing headed straight for Qiuxiang Garden with Jixiang.

When she walked all the way, Lu Wanjun was standing in front of Princess Dianyang talking.

The news about the color screen had reached Princess Dianyang's ears, and she really scolded Lu Wanjun for it.

Lu Wanjun was dissatisfied and argued, "...Grandma, I couldn't help it, so I had someone beat her. She was just a maid. Does Gu Yuqing really dare to start a fight with me over a maid? She is not afraid of losing the Chinan Marquis Mansion. Her face makes people say she criticizes us harshly!"

Lu Wanjun said it confidently.

Princess Dianyang's eyelids twitched. If it hadn't been for what happened yesterday, she was absolutely certain that Gu Yuqing would never have dared to do anything.

But now...she is not sure at all.

"After all, the color screen is the person in front of her, and she is the granddaughter of her mother's wet nurse. She is different from others."

Lu Wanjun looked displeased, "I don't know her identity! Besides, I just beat her. Gu Yuqing didn't dare to do anything. My grandmother wanted to reprimand me first!"

While they were talking, a maid came in and reported: "Princess, Miss, Miss Gu is here!"

Although Lu Wanjun had just spoken harshly, upon hearing these words, his heart skipped a beat.
