Chapter 2581: Turned Into a Pighead

When the steward sent someone to deliver lunch, he sneaked a glance and unexpectedly found Gu Lingqiao had been beaten into a pig head.

At this, the servants of the War Prince’s Mansion went into an uproar, all discussing fervently...

"Who on earth beat up Miss Gu? How did she end up looking like that?" This was followed by a burst of snickers.

"Who knows, evildoers eventually get what’s coming to them!"

"Last night she kept yelling about ghosts late into the night, could she have been beaten by a ghost?"

"Shh! Don’t talk nonsense, be careful lest the steward hears and won’t spare you."

"But Miss Gu was perfectly fine last night, how did she become like this today? It’s very strange indeed."

"I think it’s karma; she constantly bullies us servants all the time, relying on being the Prince’s childhood friend and never treating us like humans."

"It’s one thing for us to endure, but even the Princess Consort doesn’t escape her disregard; this woman is truly despicable."

"What’s there to be angry about? Isn’t karma here now?"

"True, hahaha...!"

The servants gossiped about the matter while they worked, all feeling immensely satisfied.

The Rain Listening Courtyard.

Xuexue practiced her skills in the space for a while, just came out, Zi Xia walked in with a small tray of snacks...

"Eldest Miss, have you heard?"

Zi Xia’s inexplicable remark left Xuexue puzzled, she asked, "Heard what?"

Zi Xia happily said, "Miss Gu was beaten up last night."

Upon hearing, Xuexue was stunned for a moment, Long Rui wasn’t at the mansion, who dared to beat her up? So she asked, "Who did it?"

"No idea, the mansion’s maids are saying it was done by a ghost."

Saying this, Zi Xia covered her mouth and chuckled: "How can they be so silly? There’s no such thing as ghosts. Probably Miss Gu unknowingly offended someone, got plotted against. This person is quite clever, beating others and using the guise of a ghost, such a high-level tactic! This maid doesn’t have that kind of intelligence."

Xuexue’s eyes flickered, recalling the sneaky demeanor of Little Tiger and Xiao Taohong in the space earlier, could it have been them.

"Chirp chirp chirp...! No ghost, no ghost, it’s the ugly one’s servants that did it, they’re sabotaging each other." Xiao Jiu chirped and chirped from the beam.

Last night, after Xiao Taohong and Little Tiger left, it had been hiding on the beam watching! It clearly saw the Old Maid viciously beating Gu Lingqiao, it was shocked at the time.

In the human world, it doesn’t get it. One moment two people are fine, the next they’re enemies?

Moreover, what surprised it more was, after Gu Lingqiao awoke, the Old Maid seemed as if nothing happened, chatting and laughing with her, what’s going on?

Are they enemies or friends? Xiao Jiu was totally confused.

Xuexue squinted dangerously at Xiao Jiu, this guy tries to cover up, last night, when she left the space, Little Tiger, Xiao Taohong, and Xiao Jiu were clearly tormenting Zhao Yin, how did they show up outside so quickly?

The key is, if not for Xiao Taohong and Little Tiger bringing it along, Xiao Jiu couldn’t have gotten out.

Xiao Jiu chattering like there’s no ghost indicates a guilty conscience.

Xuexue: "How do you know?"

Xiao Jiu: "Xiao Jiu saw it with his own eyes."

Xuexue glanced at Zi Xia beside her, alright, there’s someone here who doesn’t know about the space, let Xiao Jiu off for now! To avoid revealing secrets.

Zi Xia thought Xiao Jiu made sense, this little bird always flies around the mansion, seeing unknown secrets is quite normal.
