Gu Qingxue did not even look at Gu Chengbin, as if she did not hear him.

Gu Chengbin was ignored twice, and he became more and more exasperated.

He did not believe that if he could not even save the imperial duke’s wife, she, Gu Qingxue, could!

After Gu Qingxue took Madam Qiao’s pulse, she gently turned over Madam Qiao’s body, and reached out to slowly touch her spine.

“Gu Qingxue, are you at your wit’s end? The imperial duke’s wife is injured in the head, why are you touching her body?” Gu Xin’er questioned sarcastically.

“Shut up.” Gu Qingxue’s gaze was sharp as she glanced at Gu Xin’er.

Gu Qingxue’s gaze was exceptionally sharp, making Gu Xin’er feel as if she was about to be penetrated by Gu Qingxue’s gaze.

However, Gu Xin’er wasn’t willing to lose to Gu Qingxue. She continued to shout arrogantly, “What I said isn’t wrong. Everyone saw the imperial duke’s wife injured her head. You’re clearly treating the imperial duke’s wife’s life as child’s play!”

“Xin’er’s words are true. Xue’er, we all care about the imperial duke’s wife’s safety. We can’t watch you act so recklessly unless you’re willing to bear the consequences of treating the imperial duke’s wife,” Madam Kou’s eyes flashed as they spoke righteously.

“Eldest Madam, the Eldest Miss saved the imperial duke’s wife for the sake of our Gu family…” Lan Wen’s expression changed as she subconsciously stepped forward to speak up for Gu Qingxue.

“Impudent!” Nanny Zhou took a step forward and slapped Lan Wen’s face. “How dare a lowly servant like you question the Eldest Madam?”

Lan Wen was knocked to the ground, half of her face swelling up at a speed visible to the naked eye. She had never suffered such a grievance before. She was in so much pain that her eyes were full of tears, yet she still wanted to speak up for Gu Qingxue.

The moment Gu Qingxue saw Lan Wen being hit, the aura around her suddenly dropped to a freezing point.

“Lan Wen, stand down.” Gu Qingxue’s clear black and white eyes were filled with anger. She remembered this slap in her heart, and turned her eyes to Madam Kou. “Does the Eldest Madam want me to bear the consequences of saving the imperial duke’s wife alone?”

Madam Kou stood in the pavilion and said expressionlessly, “You are a married daughter after all. Since ancient times, a married daughter is someone else’s daughter-in-law.”

As soon as Madam Kou’s words came out, everyone understood what she meant.

Madam Kou clearly wanted to push Gu Qingxue out as a scapegoat.

In this way, even if the imperial duke’s wife died, the Gu family would have nothing to do with it. At that time, they could pretend that they had nothing to do with it. Even the blame for Madam Qiao’s accident would fall on Gu Qingxue.

Nanny Sheng stepped forward to help Lan Wen up. After hearing this, the two of them were extremely nervous. They kept winking at Gu Qingxue, signaling her not to agree!

Gu Qingxue looked at Madam Kou quietly.

As expected of the matriarch of the Gu family, she was indeed a smart person.

It was a pity that the Gu family looked down on Gu Qingxue so much. They had to pay a price.

“Okay, I, Gu Qingxue, will take responsibility for my own actions. No matter what the result is today, my actions have nothing to do with the Gu family,” Gu Qingxue said with a calm smile.

“Eldest Miss!” Nanny Sheng’s face instantly turned pale. She could not understand why the Eldest Miss would jump into the trap even though she knew Madam Kou was trying to s.h.i.+rk responsibility!

Nanny Sheng did not have time to think too much. She anxiously wanted to ask the Old Madam for a few words.

However, the Old Madam was in a daze. She could not figure out what everyone was doing, let alone speak up for Gu Qingxue.

Gu Qingxue ignored everyone’s pitying gazes and looked at Madam Qiao’s maid, asking, “Does your madam often feel dizzy? When her condition becomes serious, she might even lie on the bed for a few days, unable to open her eyes?”
