Setting Her Up 2

Hearing these words, Mrs. Gu was overjoyed, but she showed none of this in her expression, but let bitterness dominate. She kneeled down in front of Princess Jing and said with a look of sadness, "Princess Jing, Chaoyan lost her mother when she was little, and you can't blame her for anything. Please, Princess Jing, spare her life, and we are not getting her to marry anyone either. We are going to support her throughout our entire life."1

The way Mrs. Gu looked did seem quite sincere, but after being a princess for so many years, Princess Jing had witnessed numerous shows like this. She could easily tell whether Mrs. Gu was sincere or not.

However, this woman was going to be part of her family so at this moment, she was going to spare some face for her and play along with her.

Princess Jing slightly leaned forward and waved at Mrs. Gu. "I should punish those who are involved with what happens in the palace today. But I will accept the request from a stepmother like you."

Mrs. Gu looked pleased. She kowtowed and said, "Thank you very much, Princess Jing!"

Princess Jing gave a brief smile, then she looked at the maid next to her. "Someone, open the door now."

Ecstasy arose inside Mrs. Gu's heart. Soon, the bitch was going to taste what hell was like.

Joy hovered over Gu Ruxue's face. This bitch was not going to steal any dowries that belonged to her. She was going to gain it all and marry Lord Ling in complete glory!

"What are you all doing here?" Gu Chaoyan's confused voice arose.

Mrs. Gu and Gu Ruxue both gasped. For one second, they thought that they had a delusion.

How could that be? Shouldn't this bitch be in the room? What was she doing here?! That could not be possible!

Mrs. Gu just could not believe what was happening, but as she looked into the direction where the voice arose, she did see Gu Chaoyan standing there with a face of innocence and confusion.

Princess Jing frowned slightly too. Something was wrong.

Didn't Mrs. Gu insist that Elder Miss was in the room? However, she was not in the room at all! Who was that woman in the room then?

"Elder Miss, where have you been?" Princess Jing asked with a very sharp tone.

"Greetings, Princess Jing, I did not feel well, so I went to the toilet! But now… what are you all doing here? Did something happen?" Gu Chaoyan looked confused as if she knew nothing.

Disbelief arose over Mrs. Gu's face. She pointed at Gu Chaoyan with a sharp tone, "That is impossible! You should be in the room, what are you doing outside the room?!"

The words had just been spoken, when a sound of moaning arose from inside.

Everyone understood what was happening inside there.

Gu Chaoyan showed a look of understanding, then she put a hurt look on her face and said to Mrs. Gu, "Mrs. Gu, you are the stepmother, but you should not be so evil as to say that I am inside!"

"…"

"Have you been inside and confirmed that? Why are you saying that it is me inside?!"

"…"

"My mother passed away when I was little. I did not expect you to treat me like your real daughter. But you should not have framed me in this way!" Gu Chaoyan talked as if she were feeling rather wronged. Then her eyes turned red and tears dribbled down.

Then she tugged at Princess Virtue next to her. "Princess Virtue, this is your palace, please help me get justice!"
