Chapter Seventy-Eight: Gao's Death

Gao Xiuyan was carried out of the West Courtyard.

It is said that Gao Xiuyan is a ghost, and when the subordinates carried her out, her head was bleeding, her mouth was foaming at the mouth, her eyes were extremely frightened, and her mouth was full of words. It is rumored that Gao Xiuyan angered the evil ghosts of the West Courtyard, so she was killed. The two old grandmothers beside Gao Xiuyan also looked frightened when they mentioned it.

Gu Shuiyue and Fu Xiaohe also moved out of the West Courtyard because of this, and when they heard these rumors, Fu Xiaohe couldn't help but glance at Gu Shuiyue with a thoughtful expression.

"You did it?"

"It's just self-inflicted. ”

Gao Xiuyan is not light in this evil, she has been lying on the bed, often dreaming, Gu Shuiyue kindly went to visit her, she was so frightened that she wrapped herself in the quilt and didn't dare to come out for a long time. Not only that, but even the two old grandmothers who were serving beside her began to tremble when they saw Gu Shuiyue.

"You're the one who hurt Miss!" said a grandmother boldly.

Gu Shuiyue glanced at her coldly: "I don't know if it's harmful, but who left his young lady there alone that day, and he ran faster than a rabbit, you should know better in your hearts." ”

"You!"

The old woman wanted to speak again, but the other grabbed her.

If this matter continues to be investigated, no one will be able to please him. They also have a handle in the hands of the person in front of them, and the best outcome is not to talk about it again.

Gao Xiuyan is crazy, it stands to reason that the emperor is the true dragon emperor, and she should not continue to stay in the palace like this. But the Taiwei Mansion was powerful, so he erased this matter, only saying that Gao Xiuyan was infected with wind and cold and had a minor illness.

Under the careful conditioning of the imperial doctor, Gao Xiuyan gradually recovered, but her arrogant temperament was a little restrained, and she didn't dare to go to Gu Shuiyue for trouble.

Ten days later, Gao Xiuyan was finally able to get up from the bed, and the first thing she did was to call Zhou.

Zhou's heart was also a little apprehensive, she gave Gao Xiuyan this idea originally because she wanted Gao Xiuyan to get rid of the surname Gu, who knew that the surname Gu was fine, Gao Xiuyan herself was scared of half her life.

As soon as Zhou entered the door, a porcelain teacup flew towards him and smashed directly on his face, making her dizzy and bleeding directly.

Gao Xiuyan was standing there angrily, glaring at her.

Gu Shuiyue's shadow on her was too great, she didn't dare to go to Gu Shuiyue for revenge at all, so she could only blame the Zhou family.

The Zhou family was also angry in their hearts, but who said that her birth status was inferior to Gao Xiuyan? Not only herself, but even her own family had to rely on the Taiwei Mansion.

Zhou could only cover his forehead with his hand, endured the pain and walked in, and said with a pleasant face: "My sister's body is just better, don't be angry." If my sister is angry with me, she will beat or scold her, and don't hurt her body. ”

"Zhou Xin, you did it on purpose. On that day, Mama Wang said that the West Courtyard was haunted, and you still gave me such an idea, didn't you just hope that I would be ghosted?"

"You asked me to deal with her, you picked it up yourself, if I hadn't figured it out while lying in bed these days, and still regarded you as a good sister!"

The more Gao Xiuyan thought about it, the more angry she became, and directly slapped a few slaps on Zhou's face, venting all the anger she had suffered in the past few days.

Gao Xiuyan was pampered, but her hand strength was not small, and she quickly beat Zhou's face to the point that her face was swollen.

Gao Xiuyan was tired of beating, and asked the two grandmothers to take turns to slap their mouths, so that Zhou's face couldn't see the original state, so she let her out.

"Cheap embryo, stay away from Miss Ben in the future!"

This breath, she is out.

Zhou endured her anger and returned to her room, and she was ashamed of the countless strange looks she received along the way. When the door was closed, her face was like a layer of frost, and with scissors in her hands, she cut the quilt on the bed as Gao Xiuyan.

He is stupid, he is not Miss Gu's opponent, but he is still to blame himself. She was originally born in a big family, and she was just treated as a maid by Gao Xiuyan, but this time she was humiliated like this, Zhou felt a raging anger burning in her heart, and her eyes burst out with a vicious light.

"Being bullied by a fool like Gao Xiuyan, just because she was born in the Taiwei Mansion, is she very aggrieved, unwilling, and angry?"

A voice sounded in her ear, and Zhou almost blurted out 'yes'.

After seeing that it was Su Manman, Zhou hurriedly swallowed the word 'yes'.

The Zhou family is attached to Gao Xiuyan, Gao Xiuyan prefers Su Manman, among these people, Gao Xiuyan only thinks that Su Manman is comparable to her birth, therefore, the Zhou family does not like Su Manman.

"What are you doing here?" Zhou said coldly.

Su Manman is still innocent and romantic: "I saw Sister Zhou crying sadly, so I came to comfort and comfort her." Sister Zhou is really pitiful. Gao Xiuyan dares to do this to Sister Zhou today, when the throne is sealed in the coming day, Gao Xiuyan will become a virtuous concubine, is there still a place for Sister Zhou in this palace? Moreover, Sister Zhou wants to be called like a dog by her for the rest of her life?"

Su Manman's every sentence pierced Zhou's heart.

Zhou's face was very ugly, and after a while, he raised his head and glared at Su Manman: "What do you want to do?"

"I just want to show Sister Zhou a clear way. ”

Zhou looked at her suspiciously: "What way?"

"Gu and Gao Xiuyan have had a grudge for a long time and killed Gao Xiuyan. Su Manman said such a sinister thing with a smile on his face, "Gao Xiuyan is dead, and the Gu family is the murderer, is this a double win for you?"

"If the truth is found out, the people of the Taiwei Mansion will definitely kill me, and for you, it will kill three birds with one stone. "Zhou is not Gao Xiuyan, not so stupid, and will not be willing to be a knife to kill people with a knife.

Su Manman laughed nonchalantly: "You have no way out, I just show you the way, it's up to you whether you can go or not." But I can promise you one thing, and when I become a virtuous concubine, I will keep your position. ”

Gao Xiuyan has the best birth background here, if Gao Xiuyan dies, it will be Su Manman. Su Manman is the sister of Concubine Lian, so the position of this virtuous concubine is very likely to be Su Manman's.

Zhou closed her eyes and clenched her hands into fists, this is a very dangerous road, but she really has no way out.

"Okay, Su Manman, you don't have to forget today's promise. ”

"That's nature. ”

An insidious deal was made in this room.

Gao Xiuyan's health gradually improved.

Spring has come, and it is the season for the grass to grow and the warbler to fly.

Zhou stood outside Gao Xiuyan's door for a while almost every day: "Sister Gao, I was wrong, but I have no intention of harming my sister." If I have such sinister thoughts, then I will not die well. ”

Gu Shuiyue walked in front of the corridor and saw this scene, met Zhou's eyes, and saw Zhou's vicious eyes looking at her.

Zhou hated her.

Gu Shuiyue felt that this was understandable.

But she also hated Zhou.

Those who are evil should be prepared to suffer the consequences.

After a while, Gao Xiuyan's door finally opened. Zhou's face immediately turned into a smile, and he hurriedly walked in, almost humbly, and said, "Sister Gao is finally willing to see me." ”

Through the crack in the door, Gu Shuiyue saw that Gao Xiuyan in the room had returned to her former pretty appearance, and looked at Zhou with arrogant eyes. Zhou said something in her ear, and the two gradually became intimate and returned to their former appearance.

Gu Shuiyue chuckled lightly and left.

Zhou's was treated like that by Gao Xiuyan a few days ago, and today he can please her like this, which shows that Zhou's heart is not comparable to ordinary people.

After another two days, their etiquette and rules have been almost learned, and the queen will come in person to test their talents and virtues.

The queen's opinion is still very important, of course, excluding people like Gao Xiuyan, who have a noble status and have already determined their position.

Gu Shuiyue waited for the arrival of the queen with the original four people in this Qianxin Palace.

This is actually a bit nondescript, she is the wife of a courtier, but she was taught by the queen together with the concubine. However, the one in Tianchen Palace originally had the intention of humiliating her.

On this day, Gu Shuiyue always had a bad premonition in her heart, as if something was going to happen.

"The queen has arrived!" With a spy cry, a red corner of the clothes jumped into everyone's eyes.

The queen is about thirty years old, just in the prime of life, born with kind eyebrows, goose egg face, dignified and elegant, with a smile on her face, which makes people feel good.

The queen sat down on the upper seat, and the rest of the people bowed down.

"Sisters, hurry up, they will all be sisters in the harem in the future, and you sisters don't have to be so formal. "Queen's Road.

The queen spoke softly and was very kind. Fu Xiaohe, who was standing beside Gu Shuiyue, couldn't help but shine with her eyes and looked at her quietly.

She was bullied when she entered the palace, I am afraid that she didn't expect the most noble woman in the harem to be so kind.

Gu Shuiyue thought of Gongsun Yi's evaluation of the queen - the queen seemed to have no quarrel with the world, but in fact she was even more terrible than the concubine.

The queen taught them their talents.

Gao Xiuyan danced a dance, Su Manman played a tune, Zhou made a painting, and Fu Xiaohe made a poem - as for Gu Shuiyue, the queen seemed to have completely forgotten the existence of Gu Shuiyue.

The queen's temperament should not be like this, she has an excellent reputation in the harem, she is fair, and she never leaves any gossip. But when she saw Gu Shuiyue, she instinctively didn't like her. This woman was born so beautiful, especially those eyes, which were almost bewitching. Such a woman staying in the harem gave her a sense of crisis. This sense of crisis was the last time she saw Qu Jinlian. Later, she became the concubine of the six palaces. If the emperor sees her...... The queen's thought at that moment was that she must not let Her Majesty see her.

The queen also rewarded the four of them, and set up a dinner party in the Qianxin Palace to dine with them.

Gao Xiuyan was very happy that the queen ignored Gu Shuiyue. Gao Xiuyan sat in the farthest position from Gu Shuiyue, looking at Gu Shuiyue with smug eyes, Gu Shuiyue confronted her, and Gao Xiuyan hurriedly looked away. The shadow of the ghost was still there that day, and Gao Xiuyan always felt that there was something strange in it when she thought about it later, but she didn't dare to do anything to Gu Shuiyue.

Gu Shuiyue looked at Gao Xiuyan and always felt a little weird. Gao Xiuyan's face was very pale, and the thick fat powder couldn't cover the miserable whiteness, compared to her glance that day, she seemed to be much weaker, but she didn't realize it.

Gu Shuiyue ate two bites and went to the lotus pond to blow the wind.

Zhou didn't know what to say in Gao Xiuyan's ear, Gao Xiuyan walked towards Gu Shuiyue with Zhou's hand.

Gu Shuiyue looked at her with raised eyebrows. Gao Xiuyan didn't look at her, but said boldly: "You go away, Miss Ben wants to enjoy the scenery here!"

"Miss Ben is still so afraid of you as a virtuous concubine, so how can she gain a foothold in the palace?"

"Miss Ben is not afraid of you. ”

Gao Xiuyan drank some fruit wine and hummed loudly, as if to cheer herself up.

Gu Shuiyue was not interested in arguing with her, and just wanted to walk away, Gao Xiuyan's body suddenly fell towards her. With a "bang", a goose-yellow figure fell into the lotus pond, and the splash splashed Gu Shuiyue's body.

"Miss Gao has fallen overboard!"

"Bold, you dare to push Miss into the water!"

Two screams rang out.

Gu Shuiyue raised her eyebrows, it seemed that someone was going to wronged her and pushed Gao Xiuyan into the lotus pond.

If something happened to Gao Xiuyan, it would definitely depend on her.

Gu Shuiyue turned around and jumped into the lotus pond, picked up Gao Xiuyan who fell in the river, and fell to the ground with a jump.

By this time, many people had gathered around.

She put Gao Xiuyan on the ground, Gao Xiuyan's eyes were closed, and her body was mixed with mud and sand.

Those people didn't pay attention to Gu Shuiyue at all, but surrounded Gao Xiuyan in the middle.

"Miss is out of breath!"

Such a shallow lotus pond, how could it be possible to drown people in such a moment?

This was obviously planned for a long time, Gu Shuiyue's brows furrowed, and she felt that she was stuck in a quagmire.

The other party is really ruthless.

Gao Xiuyan is dead, and if the blame is put on her, then the opponent she faces will be the entire Taiwei Mansion, and there is really no place to bury her.
