"master."

The voices of the old women came from the door.

When Zhu heard that Minister Gu had arrived, she happily climbed up.

But when she thought of her current appearance, she quickly tore off a piece of cloth and covered her face.

The door was unlocked and Zhu saw Minister Gu walk in.

"master."

Zhu's call of "Master" was full of affection.

Minister Gu looked at Zhu with a gloomy face.

Seeing Minister Gu's expression, Zhu felt a little uneasy. Could it be that Nanny Zhu's brother confessed?

No, it's impossible. She had warned them that if he didn't admit it, Nanny Zhu and her family would not survive.

"Master, are you here to let me out?"

Zhu looked at Minister Gu expectantly.

Minister Gu sneered.

"Let you go? Zhu, you've made such a big mistake, and you still want me to let you go?"

When Zhu heard what Minister Gu said, she looked at him with disappointment.

"Master, I am doing this for this family. This has happened before. And since my brother, Nanny Zhu, has taken the blame, it will not affect you and the Gu family..."

When Minister Gu heard that Zhu was still quibbling, his face became even uglier.

"Really? What if Brother Zhu doesn't admit this?"

"He dares. If he doesn't admit it, his whole family will have to die." There was a cruel look on Zhu's face when she said this.

Minister Gu looked at Zhu. In his mind, the former Zhu was gentle, considerate, talented and capable, and an outstanding young lady from the aristocratic families in the capital. But the current Zhu made him feel a little unfamiliar.

When Zhu saw Minister Gu's expression, she knew that her expression just now was a little bad, so she immediately spoke.

"Master, I really didn't do a good enough job. But this matter cannot be allowed to affect our Gu Mansion, let alone you, Master. I have arranged everything..."

Listening to what Zhu said, Minister Gu spoke.

"Ms. Zhu, you are the one who killed Mrs. Xie."

what?

Zhu's heart skipped a beat and she looked at Minister Gu in surprise.

Why did the master suddenly mention Xie?

"Master, Mrs. Xie died of heavy bleeding during childbirth. I hadn't even married you at that time. Did you hear some rumors from somewhere... I am innocent..."

Zhu suspected that Gu Zhao had said something to Minister Gu. She had been locked up in this small courtyard for the past two days, unable to go out, and had no contact with her confidants.

Maybe Gu Zhao would take this opportunity to deal with her. And Aunt Shi and Aunt Chen, these two bitches. When she gets out, she will never let them go.

"Snapped."

Minister Gu slapped Gu Zhu in the face, and she fell to the ground. The cloth covering her face also fell to the ground.

Seeing Gu Zhu's appearance at this moment, Minister Gu was a little stunned.

The Zhu in front of him seemed to be ten years older than before. There were still dark spots on her face, and she was not as bright and beautiful as usual.

The Zhu family now seemed more and more unfamiliar to him.

Zhu saw the disgust in Minister Gu's eyes and thought about how he had hit her several times in recent days.

She climbed up and looked at Minister Gu with a grim expression.

"Why are you so crazy?"

"Am I crazy?"

Minister Gu stretched out his hand and pinched Zhu's neck.

"You sent Manager Liu to instruct Hua'er to drug Mrs. Xie, and you also sent a midwife to prevent Mrs. Xie from giving birth safely... Who do you think you can hide all this from? Mrs. Zhu, you are so cruel."
