Chapter 382
Gu Ruoxi suddenly, the door of the Jinye Hou Mansion is noble, and Mrs. Jinye Hou is naturally often in and out of the palace, and it is just an ordinary thing for her and Gu Yuetong to enter the palace together, but what is Xuanyuan Jingxi talking about?
"You were eight years old at that time...... Xuanyuan Jingxi said, raised his eyes and glanced at Gu Ruoxi, seeing that she was still ignorant, he lost his interest in talking, and only waved his hand in disappointment: "That's it, since you have forgotten, it is useless to talk so much, I will continue to talk about what I just did......
Gu Ruoxi sat there, listening to Xuanyuan Jingxi's explanation of the past word by word, she had a little understanding in her heart, and she also sighed a little, she smiled at everything else, but she knew a little more about Xuanyuan Jingxi's machismo and domineering.
The conversation did not end until lunchtime.
After dinner, Gu Ruoxi practiced the piano for a while, and then went back to the cubicle to pack her things, she was going home, and she had to make some preparations.
But in fact, she didn't have two things, just a change of clothes, and was packing up, Xuanyuan Jingxi walked in from outside, leaned on the screen, clasped his hands on his chest and watched her movements, and said for a long time: "You're worried about staying over there, just come back and take a look!" This place is always for you. β
When Gu Ruoxi heard this, she turned around, she glanced at Xuanyuan Jingxi, and said, "Do you think I am someone who will be satisfied with such a simple bedroom?" I don't even have a bit of privacy! β
But this is the closest to him.
Xuanyuan Jingxi didn't dare to say this, he glanced at Gu Ruoxi fixedly, and said: "Okay, I know that you are like an arrow, I won't say anything more, you are careful." β
Gu Ruoxi put the packed baggage on the bed, and said to Xuanyuan Jingxi: "Okay, prince, you go out!" I'm going to get my makeup. β
She can show her original appearance in this Qilan Palace, because no one comes in, there are only four people in total, and no one will say it. But when you go out, you have to pretend to be blue, otherwise, there will be chaos.
However, when Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, he shook his head and said: "No, you are disguised as someone else today, it is best to disguise yourself as a man, I will let Ziyi pretend to be you, she will go first, and you will go out later, we have to be careful about the last time." β
When Gu Ruoxi heard this, she immediately turned her head and glanced at Xuanyuan Jingxi, seeing that he had already put away his expression, and by the way, he pressed all the tenderness and sweetness in his heart, but reminded her with a solemn expression that she should pay attention to Ye Quan on the road.
Gu Ruoxi looked at him like this, and she had more love in her heart, and she thought sadly: If Xuanyuan Jingxi is not the prince, how good it is, such a handsome little white face, she can stick it upside down!
Without further ado, by the time everything was cleaned up, it was already nearly dusk.
Gu Ruoxi came out of the hall, and sure enough, she saw that Ziyi had already dressed up as her maidservant, and even her demeanor and voice were super godlike! , Guruo
When Xi saw it, he was very surprised.
When Xuanyuan Jingxi faced Gu Ruoxi alone in the hall, he talked a lot, and his sweet words kept going out, but outside, in front of Moyun Ziyi and the guards, he refused to say a word, only looked at Gu Ruoxi fixedly, and said lightly: "You must be careful on the road!" β
Gu Ruoxi said in his heart, are others stupid? How can the same stratagem be used twice?
But she never imagined that this "enemy" was really stupid.
Ziyi went first, all the way quickly, picking remote alleys to drill, which coincided with Gu Ruoxi's previous actions, plus she was originally pretending to be Gu Ruoxi, so none of those who were hiding in the dark noticed that they had been exposed.
And Ziyi is also very bold, not to mention her own excellent martial arts, Xuanyuan Jingxi alone sent thirty secret guards with superb martial arts to escort her all the way, these people who are stalking are simply gadgets, and Ziyi teases them in circles like cats catching old people.
And an hour later, Xuanyuan Jingxi estimated that the purple clothes had already walked away, and then he said to Gu Ruoxi: "Okay, you can go." Originally, I wanted to send you, but the whereabouts of this king are too attention-grabbing, and it's not good to go, and it will bring disaster to the Kazuba Houfu, so I won't go. Send some guards to escort you. β
Gu Ruoxi nodded, thinking to herself that you also know that you are a 'disaster-summoning' physique!
She nodded and said to Xuanyuan Jingxi; "There will be a date later." ran out of the back door of King Jing's mansion with a smoke, she was wearing a small girl's clothes, and no one could tell that she was a girl.
After turning around on the street, Gu Ruoxi went back to her shop; Lingering Incense Pavilion.
However, when she was at the gate, she was a little stunned, she hadn't come for some days, and this shop had changed a lot! The faΓ§ade is all redecorated again, it looks tall and high-grade, and even there are more people on this street, and the door of the Liuxiang Pavilion is also full of people coming and going, in an endless stream.
Gu Ruoxi suddenly remembered that Xuanyuan's shopkeeper was a person from Xuanyuan Jingxi, but she didn't expect that she had been absent, and Xuanyuan's shopkeeper took care of this place so well, and she was really a talent.
She stood on the street and looked at it for a moment, then turned around and entered the back door of the Liuxiang Pavilion through the side door.
The door turned out to be open, Gu Ruoxi glanced twice, frowned fiercely, pushed open the door and walked in, there were two or so small guys in the yard who were working shirtless, and there was Xiao Dongzi inside, he heard the sound of the door opening, looked back at Gu Ruoxi, and saw that it was a strange little guy, and immediately stood up and asked, "Who are you looking for?" Why is it here! β
Gu Ruoxi didn't answer and asked, "Why didn't you lock the back door?" Don't you know this? β
When Xiao Dongzi heard this voice, he suddenly wondered in his mind, how could this voice be so familiar! He remembered the words that Xuanyuan's shopkeeper had told him today,
Immediately excited, ran up and asked, "You, are you Xiaochun?" β
Gu Ruoxi immediately nodded.
Xiao Dongzi was excited, and immediately stepped forward and said, "Go!" Go in and see the shopkeeper of Xuanyuan! β
Gu Ruoxi looked at the guys outside, all their eyes were fixed on her, knowing that this was not a good place to talk, she nodded immediately, and followed Xiao Dongzi into the back room, but said something to stop Xiao Dongzi from calling Xuanyuan shopkeeper: "Don't be busy, don't call Xuanyuan shopkeeper, I'm very busy, I will leave after changing my clothes, I won't stay here longer." β
When Xiao Dongzi heard this, he suddenly felt a burst of disappointment in his heart, and couldn't help asking, "Xiaochun, do you really want to leave?" β
Gu Ruoxi nodded and said, "I have something urgent, I'll come back in a few days." β
Xiao Dongzi didn't dare to ask anything as before, so he only nodded and ordered someone to find out the clothes that Gu Ruoxi had worn from the Jinye Houfu and walked out. Gu Ruoxi didn't dare to delay, quickly changed his clothes, washed off his disguise, and then carefully depicted himself, an hour later. She finally turned into Ruri's appearance again.
Gu Ruoxi looked at herself in the mirror with satisfaction, and only then did she put down the mirror and walked out of the door until there were no more flaws or flaws.
However, as soon as she went out, she saw Xuanyuan's shopkeeper, and Xiao Dongzi finally called him.
As soon as Xuanyuan's shopkeeper saw Gu Ruoxi, he said, "Miss, old Xuanyuan will invite you to Ye." β
Gu Ruoxi blinked, she heard it right? Is he calling Miss?
However, after thinking about it carefully, she understood that Xuanyuan's shopkeeper was Xuanyuan Jingxi's subordinates, and her true identity was naturally understood by Xuanyuan's shopkeeper. She nodded, and said simply: "You sort out the account books and everything in the shop, and I'll check it in a few days." β
"It's as it should be, but I've already prepared the ledger." Xuanyuan's shopkeeper heard this. Immediately answered.
Gu Ruoxi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll come back in a few days." With that, she walked out the back door, and the guys who had just worked in the backyard had already been sent away by Dongzi.
Gu Ruoxi walked out of the back door unimpeded, and came to the street again, she pinched a piece of silver ingot hidden in her pocket, and walked quickly towards Jinye Houfu with her head down.
What she didn't know was. Because of her refusal, Xuanyuan Jingxi secretly sent several groups of people to protect her, originally these people were all to be handed over to her, but now they can only be managed by Xuanyuan Jingxi, but the role is the same, that is, Ye Quan, who protects her.
Gu Ruoxi was ignorant of this, she lowered her head all the way, but her feet walked extremely fast, she didn't know if Xuanyuan Jingxi's strategy was useful, and she didn't know if the purple clothes had led away those who secretly opposed her? Or maybe she's just worried about it.
It has been two months since she came out for a walk, and Gu Ruoxi found that she actually had a trace of nostalgia, perhaps, as a modern person, some of the habits she had developed were never
Can it be changed?
Just as she was sighing, she suddenly saw a carriage stop beside her.
Gu Ruoxi was stunned. However, the next moment, she saw that the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and the people sitting in the carriage happened to be Gu Xiaoye and Prince Xuanyuan Yan, both of whom were dressed in gorgeous clothes, with black hair and white skin, with the extremely luxurious dress in the carriage, which made people know their noble status at a glance.
It had been a few days since she had seen these two, and Gu Ruoxi's reaction was half a beat slower for a while. Before she could figure out whether to step forward and invite Ye or turn around and run, at this moment, she heard Xuanyuan Yan say excitedly to Xuanyuan Jingxi: "This palace said that looking at the back, this girl is like the maid Liuli next to your little sister, you still don't believe it!" β
Gu Ruoxi was speechless, and the person who recognized him emotionally turned out to be Xuanyuan Yan! How good his memory is!
When Gu Xiaoye heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched fiercely, the maid beside Tong'er, no matter who it was, Xuanyuan Yan couldn't remember the name, and often shouted wrongly, but he didn't expect him to recognize the maid Liuli next to the little sister at a glance just by his back, how much did he miss the little sister?
Even the maid remembers it so firmly, let alone the main master......
Gu Xiaoye's face suddenly fell. You can't hide it.
However, Xuanyuan Yan was still asking Gu Ruoxi with great interest: "Liuli, what are you doing here?" How do you look like a dusty man? Still carrying a small baggage? As he spoke, his gaze stayed on the small burden that Gu Ruoxi was carrying for a moment.
Gu Ruoxi hurriedly said: "Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, my young lady has a three-month long vacation for the slave maid, and the slave and maid miss the young lady, so she came back early." β
Gu Xiaoye said coldly: "Oh? So that's the case? Since my little sister has given you a long vacation, why don't you stay at home for a while? β
When Gu Ruoxi heard this, she immediately frowned: "Shizi, the slave maid said that the slave maid came back because she missed the young lady!" β
She showed Liuli's somewhat upright temperament superbly.
Gu Xiaoye glanced at him and said coldly: "Hmph! I didn't expect you to be a faithful protector! β
"Slaves don't dare to be slaves." Gu Ruoxi hurriedly bowed his head.
Xuanyuan Yan smiled and said, "Okay, okay, since you are going back, then get in the carriage!" Way. β
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, this must not be!" When Gu Xiaoye heard this, she suddenly became anxious: "Lord Wang, this must not be!" You are a noble person, and Liuli is just a girl, how can she share a carriage with His Royal Highness the Prince? β
Gu Ruoxi knew that if she followed Xuanyuan Yan's words today, then she would definitely attract Gu Xiaoye's resentment, although this guy had bad intentions towards the people around her.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, what the prince said is right, I'm just a lowly girl, how can I share a carriage with Your Highness? There are not many steps ahead, and the slave can go back by herself. β
"Your Highness, she said no
Wrong! Seeing her know her like this, Gu Xiaoye finally lost a little anger in her heart, and hurriedly persuaded Xuanyuan Yan.
However, Xuanyuan Yan made up his mind, no matter how the two persuaded him, he just refused, and he must let Gu Ruoxi take his carriage: "Liuli, this palace will say it again, by the way, take you back, hurry up!" Don't let Hongu say it a second time! By the end of the words, there was already a hint of fierce momentum.
Gu Ruoxi was quite helpless, Gu Xiao's face sank like water, and since Xuanyuan Yan was so angry, no one dared to say anything more. The three people in and out of the car were frozen there, becoming a very beautiful scenery on the street.
Not far away, a figure flashed, and then quickly disappeared.
Fortunately, the stalemate did not last long, Gu Ruoxi was reluctant, and got into Xuanyuan Yan's carriage with complicated thoughts, and she had to ignore Gu Xiaoye's murderous eyes. Once in the carriage, she curled up near the door, as far away as she could from the two powerful men.
Gu Ruoxi is no longer ignorant, and no longer cares about the major affairs of the court, but he also understands that although Xuanyuan Yan is the crown prince, the rest of the princes are fighting for power and profit, and everyone is planning to overturn him from the throne of the prince.
The road to succession has already begun, and it is intensifying.
The Gu family is the most noble Hou Mansion since the founding of the country, Gu Ruoxi's father has held military power for decades, and his influence in the court is not small, but Jinye Hou remains neutral, neither supporting the crown prince, nor supporting the three princes and the four princes, even if his daughter has already been elected as the crown princess, he has no obvious support for Xuanyuan Yan.
So recently, Xuanyuan Yan has been running more and more diligently to Jinye Houfu, his biological mother died early, but the only foreign family is a bad one, and the only one who can rely on is only Jinye Hou.
But Xuanyuan Yan's purpose is obviously not pure, because the Gu family has two girls who look exactly the same, he is not willing to marry only one, he wants the other to become his wife! Only in this way can Jinye Hou concentrate on himself.
As for Gu Ruoxi's election as Princess Min, Xuanyuan Yan didn't pay attention to it at all, in his eyes, it was not a matter at all.
In the end, it is a royal carriage, and it is comfortable to walk. Gu Ruoxi shrank in the corner of the carriage, calculating the distance, but she was very reluctant in her heart.
She doesn't want to have any ambiguity with Xuanyuan Yan, let alone marry him, she doesn't want to get close to these princes, she just wants to live her life behind closed doors!
Such a small wish is simply impossible to fulfill.
Xuanyuan Yan didn't look at Liuli again along the way, which made Gu Xiaoye feel a little more comfortable, but he was still unhappy. As long as Xuanyuan Yan thinks about Gu Ruoxi for a day, he will not be at ease for a day.
When the carriage arrived at the Jinye Houfu, Gu Ruoxi was the first to jump off the carriage.
turned around and walked towards the corner gate, she is now playing Liuli, a maid, naturally she can't go to the main gate, but she only took a step, and was stopped by Xuanyuan Yan.
"You go from here." Xuanyuan Yan stopped his steps towards the main entrance, turned around and said.
Gu Ruoxi glanced at him, gritted his teeth and said, "Your Highness, this can't be!" The slave has a low status, how can she go through the main door? Don't embarrass the slave! β
However, Xuanyuan Yan said: "If you don't want to go here, do you want His Highness to follow you to the corner gate?" β
"Your Highness! This must not be! Gu Xiaoye, who was on the side, heard this, and immediately stopped her: "Don't say that Liuli is just a maidservant, it's my mother, who also passes through the corner gate on weekdays, how can she be like this as a maidservant!" β
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Yan frowned and said, "You mean, let the palace go through the corner gate?" β
Gu Xiaoye was dumbfounded: "Your Highness, I have no such intention!" β
"It doesn't matter if you don't mean this, don't say more, just let Liuli follow the main gate next to the palace!" Xuanyuan Yan thought for a moment and said, "You should treat her as the entourage of this palace." β
Gu Xiaoye: "......"
Does this prince dare to be a little more willful!
She was mad with anger here, but Xuanyuan Yan over there had already swaggered towards the main gate with Gu Ruoxi, and no one dared to stop her along the way.
Gu Ruoxi followed Xuanyuan Yan half helplessly and half regretfully, entered the gate of the Gu family, and walked all the way to Luomei House, and after walking for a while, she found that Xuanyuan Yan was still with her.
Gu Ruoxi couldn't help but say strangely: "Your Highness, didn't you come to the Hou Mansion to visit the Hou Ye and the eldest lady?" Why do you keep following the slave? β
