The scumbag broke off the engagement, and the daughter of the genius doctor turned around and marrie

"Asshole!" the old lady said angrily, "Xian'er always defends you, but you slander her to get away with the crime of eloping. Are you still a human being? Do you have a heart? You are simply an ungrateful person who can never be fed."

"Ling Shuang, I know you are jealous of your sister because she is better than you in every way. I have always turned a blind eye to your sister's snatching of her clothes and jewelry. I have indulged you again and again because you have been without a mother since you were a child and your father is not at home. But if you want to frame your sister, I will never agree. Hurry up and let Xian'er go."

Gu Lingshuang could see that no one in this family believed her.

The original owner lacked discipline and was maliciously raised astray by the mother and daughter of the first wife. Her image in the Marquis' Mansion and even in the entire Shengjing was that of an uneducated and brainless playboy.

Apart from shamelessly following the Third Prince all day, she spent her time eating, drinking, having fun, cockfighting, and walking the dog. None of the dandy young masters in the capital could play as well as she did.

She became the most idle example in the Holy Capital and a negative example.

On the other hand, Gu Xian'er was respectful and polite to her superiors, tolerant and kind to her subordinates, beautiful and known as the most talented woman. Comparing the two, people naturally believed Gu Xian'er and not her.

Gu Lingshuang knew that explanation was useless, so she pinched Gu Xian'er and lifted her up. Since explanation was useless, she might as well kill her directly and let her taste the feeling of suffocation.

Gu Xianer's feet left the ground, her mouth opened in pain, and her eyes began to become bloodshot.

Seeing this, Zhang could no longer maintain her tolerant image as the mistress of the house and screamed:

"Archer—"

In an instant, the courtyard was surrounded by archers, and all arrows were pointed at Gu Lingshuang.

"Let go of Xian'er, or I'll let a thousand arrows pierce your heart."

Gu Lingshuang's eyes were cold and her first reaction was to pull out her gun.

But the pistol only had twelve bullets, while there were as many as forty or fifty archers. Before she could finish off the archers, she was hit by an arrow.

It was not worth wasting bullets on the minions. After weighing the pros and cons, she let go of Gu Xianer, but did not let go and still held her neck.

"You don't believe what I say? Then call my personal maid Chun Tao to confront you face to face."

She said to Xia He, "Go and bring Chun Tao here."

Xia He was stunned for a moment. She found that her young lady had changed today. Her temperament was decisive and ruthless, and she was not inferior to her father who was a general.

"Slave, go now."

She left quickly and came back quickly, and as expected, she brought Chuntao with her.

Chuntao didn't recognize Gu Lingshuang at all, but she knew something was wrong when she saw the situation.

Just as she was about to kneel down, she felt a sudden stab in the back and fell straight to the ground.

No one had expected such a change.

Just now, Gu Lingshuang secretly took out an anesthetic needle from the space and gave Chuntao an injection when she approached.

She kicked Chuntao and said sternly, "Chuntao, you have been poisoned. If you tell the truth, I will give you the antidote. If you don't, you will die of festering all over your body after a cup of tea. It's up to you to decide whether to live or die."

Chuntao was shocked. She recognized Gu Lingshuang's voice and couldn't believe how the ugly and vulgar second young lady could become so beautiful overnight.

She wanted to stand up, but found that she had no feeling in her body and could not move at all.

She did not doubt Gu Lingshuang's words. No one knew better than her how naughty this second young lady was. As long as she wanted something, she could get any strange thing.

"Second Miss, please spare my life."

"If you want to live, tell me everything you know. If you tell the truth, I will not only give you the antidote, but also return your indentureship to you, and reward you with 100 taels of silver, and allow you to leave the mansion."

Hearing this, Chuntao's eyes immediately lit up.

Between life and death, she naturally chose life.

One hundred taels of silver was more than she could earn even if she worked as a maid for ten years. As long as she left the mansion, the eldest wife wouldn't be able to find her even if they wanted to cause trouble for her.

Thinking of this, Chun Tao compromised: "Reporting to the old lady, the news I spread before was false. It was the eldest daughter who bribed me and asked me to strangle the second daughter to death in the suburbs with the two guards of the third prince. As long as the second daughter died, the eldest daughter could marry the third prince. In order to cover up the second daughter's death, they made up the lie that the second daughter eloped with a wild man."

Gu Lingshuang looked at the old lady with satisfaction: "Grandma, did you hear it clearly?"

The old lady was shaking with anger, pointing at Chuntao and angrily saying, "This is just nonsense. Xian'er is a brother who treats his sister with kindness and respect. It is absolutely impossible for him to do such a thing. You must have planned to harm Xian'er."

Gu Lingshuang's eyes suddenly turned cold. Even with the witness right in front of him, this old man still wanted to protect Gu Xianer.

"Xia He, search her body."

Xia He took the order and quickly reached into Chun Tao's arms and grabbed out a golden hairpin.

"Grandma doesn't believe the witness, but there is also physical evidence of Gu Xian'er bribing Chuntao. What else do you have to say?"

The hairpin was very finely crafted, with pearls embellishing the hanging tassels, and it was obvious that it was worth a fortune.

Seeing the buyao, the old lady was stunned. She recognized that it belonged to Gu Xianer. It was a popular style last year. She loved it so much at that time that she wore it almost every day. But it was out of fashion this year and she never wore it again.

"this......"

Without waiting for the old lady to finish speaking, the eldest lady hurriedly snatched the hairpin from Xia He's hand and looked at Chun Tao with cold eyes.

"No wonder Xian'er couldn't find this hairpin when she wanted to wear it a few days ago. It turns out that you, a traitor, stole it. This is unacceptable. Come on, drag this dog slave away and beat him to death with sticks."

"Madam, please spare my life. Second Miss, please save me." Chuntao screamed.

Gu Lingshuang just glanced at him coldly, without any mercy.

Keep the traitorous slave to celebrate the New Year?

Soon, shrill screams and the sound of a board hitting flesh were heard, which made people tremble with fear. After a while, Chuntao was beaten to death.

Zhang put on a smile towards Gu Lingshuang.

"Ling Shuang, this is all a misunderstanding. Your sister is kind-hearted and soft-hearted. She likes you so much that she would never harm you.

In my aunt's opinion, it must be that Chuntao was tempted by the money and first stole Xian'er's hairpin and then strangled you to death, intending to take your things for herself.

In order to escape the blame, she spread the false news that you eloped with someone. We all believed her slander. Second Miss must not harbor any resentment towards your aunt."

Gu Xian'er struck while the iron was hot and said in a gentle voice:

"Second sister, don't you know how your sister treats you? I am definitely not such a vicious person."

"Your elder sister has always been sincere to you and has absolutely no selfish motives. This matter ends here and no one is allowed to mention it again. Lingshuang, why don't you let your sister go?" The old lady ordered Gu Lingshuang.

Gu Lingshuang sneered. It was already clear who was right and who was wrong. If the old lady couldn't even see through this little trick, how could she manage such a big marquisate.

Ultimately it's bias.

Gu Xianer is the most talented woman and can bring honor to the Marquis' Mansion.

But she was a playboy and a waste who would only bring shame to the Marquisate. Even if she was really killed by Gu Xianer, the old lady would not say anything.

Gu Lingshuang glanced at the archers around her. If she insisted on strangling Gu Xianer, she would be shot into a hedgehog the next moment.

She suppressed her murderous intent and looked at the old lady with sinister eyes.

"I, Gu Lingshuang, will remember today's shame. Since the old lady has chosen to side with Gu Xian'er and discard me like a worn-out shoe, I hope you will not regret your injustice to me today when I soar to the sky in the future."

As she spoke, her other hand took out a poison needle from the space hidden by her wide sleeves.
