"What if you know?" Gu Ruoxi couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Even so, I should be grateful to King Jing, after all, if he hadn't rescued him, I would have died at this moment, and people would have died like lights going out." Nothing is possible, and now I can still stand here, and that's enough. ”

"But ......"

"Not so much." Gu Ruoxi said lightly: "If the reputation is gone, it will be gone, His Royal Highness King Jing is such a noble person, we can't afford to provoke it, let's hide as far as we can in the future!" ”

Jin Se froze, but the gloom in his eyes was even more gloomy.

Miss thought it was simple, but would Lord Hou and Mrs. think so?

After Xuanyuan Jingxi left, Mrs. Jinye Hou came to visit Gu Ruoxi again with a pair of children, and left after sitting here for long. Before leaving, Gu Yuetong took Gu Ruoxi's hand and said with tears in her eyes: "Sister, don't worry, sister, I will definitely think of ways to heal the injury on my arm!" ”

"Sister, don't worry too much." Gu Ruoxi smiled slightly. Road.

Gu Xiaoye didn't say anything on the side, before this, every time he looked at Gu Ruoxi, his eyes were always very indifferent and vigilant, but today, these are gone, replaced by scrutiny.

Before leaving. He also instructed Gu Ruoxi for the first time: "Sister, take care of your injuries." Don't think about it, everything is carried by my mother and me. ”

Gu Ruoxi glanced at him in surprise, and then a smile was on his face: "Thank you, big brother." ”

Gu Xiaoye nodded and left with Gu Yuetong.

Gu Ruoxi sat on the bed and looked at their backs as they left, a little thoughtful.

In the afternoon, she got a news: Mrs. Xu's mother and daughter went down the mountain today, and they started to clean up early in the morning. A dozen wagons were sorted out.

They are also rich and noble, and the leftists of the Gu family are much more low-key.

Gu Ruoxi was a little surprised, originally the mother and daughter of the Xu family were ready to live in this Huguo Temple for a long time, and when the ancient family would go down the mountain, they would go down the mountain when they came, but now why did they leave so suddenly?

There's a lot of weirdness in that.

Jin Se looked at Gu Ruoxi's demeanor on the side, and couldn't help but persuade: "Miss." Why do you bother to care about the mother and daughter of the Xu family? Those two are not good people, just leave, we can still have some purity! ”

"If you want to be pure, you don't have to." Gu Ruoxi shook her head and said.

Jin Se was a little surprised: "Miss, why is this?" ”

Gu Ruoxi glanced at her, smiled slightly, and said, "Do you think that with Mrs. Xu's person, they went down the mountain in advance, and they will do nothing?" ”

Jin Se couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Miss, do you mean ......"

"I'm afraid that the sunset water has spread in the capital, Mrs. Xu and the others will definitely think of getting rid of Xu Ziyan when they go down the mountain." Gu Ruoxi smiled slightly and said:

"After all, a lady deliberately pushes someone into the water, her moral character is corrupted, and it will be a problem to find her in-laws in the future, and if she doesn't do it, she will become an old girl who will not be able to marry for the rest of her life, so Mrs. Xu will definitely find ways to change all this."

When Jin Se heard this, his face was very worried: "Miss, then what should we do?" ”

"Don't do anything, she can't help me." Gu Ruoxi said lightly: "Mrs. Xu wants to tarnish my reputation, but she always has to take care of His Royal Highness King Jing, even if she provokes that master, even if she stabs the hornet's nest, she will feel better." Therefore, if Mrs. Xu wants to make a big fuss about this matter, she can only start with her sister. ”

"Huh? So? Jin Se was taken aback again.

"I don't know if my sister and eldest brother are guarding against this." Gu Ruoxi muttered.

But at this moment, a person suddenly clapped his hands outside the door and walked in: "Sister, don't worry about this, as early as yesterday, the eldest brother has already handed over the news to go down the mountain, and it has been arranged, Mrs. Xu's mother and daughter just want to reverse black and white, and they don't have that chance!" ”

As soon as Gu Ruoxi looked up, she saw Gu Yuetong walking in from outside the door with a smile on her face.

"Sister, here." Gu Ruoxi struggled to get up, Gu Yuetong hurriedly walked over with three steps and two steps, held her down and said, "Lie down honestly for me!" With so many injuries on your body, what are you messing around? ”

Gu Ruoxi smiled bitterly: "Sister, I always have to invite Ye." ”

"We are sisters, what are you doing with so much courtesy?" Gu Yuetong sat down on the chair brought by Jin Se, looked Gu Ruoxi up and down a few times, and said with a smile: "My complexion is much better than yesterday." ”

Gu Ruoxi smiled and asked instead, "Sister, what you just said, but is it true?" ”

"Nature is true." Gu Yuetong smiled proudly and said, "Then Xu Ziyan pushed me into the water, and in the end, my sister fell seriously ill, how could my eldest brother let her go?" As early as last night, my brother had already told my father about this, and early this morning, he went into the palace to complain to the emperor, and once the matter passed in front of the emperor, no one should try to distort the facts! ”

"I see." Gu Ruoxi suddenly realized. As a result, no matter what Mrs. Xu does, no one will believe it.

"The eldest brother said that Mrs. Xu's mother and daughter are not good things, although His Royal Highness King Jing saved me, but their mother and daughter are likely to implicate me, and when the time comes, I won't even be able to do it as a crown princess!" Gu Yuetong smiled proudly and said, "So, big brother, he will strike first!" ”

Feelings: Gu Xiaoye did all this just for!

Gu Ruoxi slandered in her heart, but this was something that had already been clearly understood, she didn't care, she only smiled slightly, and said, "Big brother is wise and martial." ”

Gu Yuetong suddenly giggled.

On this day, Xuanyuan Jingxi never came again.

Gu Ruoxi's expression was as usual, she should rest, she should rest, she should eat, eat, and rub the medicine, she came by herself, no

Use Jinse to help.

Jin Se wanted to speak and stopped, but he never dared to ask anything.

Gu Ruoxi ignored the grievances in the little girl's eyes, and only took out the bowl of ointment left by Xuanyuan Jingxi in her free time and studied it carefully, she studied medicine in her previous life, and she was very curious about this kind of ancient medicine.

Jin Se misunderstood, she looked at Gu Ruoxi's focused appearance, couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly retreated lightly. He helps Huancai.

But before he reached the threshold, Gu Ruoxi's voice came faintly: "Jinse, go and bring me a bowl of water." ”

Jin Se couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when she heard this, but she still nodded quickly: "Yes, Miss!" ”

After a while, the water was brought over, Gu Ruoxi motioned to Jin Se to put the bowl of water on the bedside table, picked up the spoon himself, scooped a spoonful of milky white ointment and put it into the water bowl, and watched it melt with his own eyes, the color of the bowl of water became transparent, with a strong fragrance.

"Miss, what are you doing?" Jin Se couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Didn't do anything, research, research." Gu Ruoxi didn't raise his head, his eyes stared at the bowl of water tightly, and his expression was very focused.

Jin Se was silent for a while, standing next to her and watching Gu Ruoxi's movements intently, but she felt a little distressed in her heart.

Those ointments, but they were sent by His Royal Highness King Jing, not to mention that they were worth thousands of gold, at least they were not ordinary, but her young lady actually turned them into water without hesitation, which was too wasteful......

Gu Ruoxi looked at the bowl of water, but remembered what Xuanyuan Jingxi said last night: This is a plaster made of Tianshan Snow Lotus, Ice Silk, Agarwood Crumbs, etc., to dissolve the pimples on his arms......

The medicinal materials in this ointment are very precious, and they have a strong repair effect on the skin, but she has been rubbing them from last night to today, but they can only relieve the pain on her arms, but cannot eliminate these pimples, and there is something missing in this medicine.

Or does she have to find another way to get rid of the pimples?

Gu Ruoxi couldn't help frowning and thinking. Jin Se was silent.

It's women who love beauty, Gu Ruoxi is no exception, but she is not the kind of woman who regards appearance as very important, and she won't be too lazy to toss if she goes by, but the pimples on her arms are so disgusting to look at them, she can't eat herself, let alone others?

So, she had to think of her own ideas to get rid of these knots!

Gu Ruoxi has a strong confidence that she can do this, of course, the main reason is that she has nothing to do now.

If you want to cure the disease, you must first find out what the cause of these pimples on her arms is. Gu Ruoxi looked down at those pimples, and didn't say anything for a long time.

This is the temple, there are many inconveniences, and she can't find the tools to take advantage of for a while, so she can only give up and wait for the mountain to go down the mountain in the future to make plans.

The bowl was redeemed

Gu Ruoxi looked at the medicinal water carefully for a while before saying to Jin Se: "Okay, take it down!" ”

"Miss!" Jin Se couldn't help but be dumbfounded: "Down?" "This is the ointmented water of His Royal Highness King Jing!

"Or else? Did I still drink it? Gu Ruoxi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "Okay, let's take it quickly!" ”

Jin Se stepped forward unhappily with an "oh" and went down with the bowl of water, but she had only taken two steps before Gu Ruoxi called out to her again.

"Miss, have you changed your mind?" Jin Se said with some excitement.

Gu Ruoxi glanced at her and said helplessly: "I just want to tell you, it's a pity that this water is poured on the ground, take it to water the flowers in the yard!" ”

"Oh." Jin Se was a little disappointed, she thought that Miss had figured it out, but she didn't expect that she just told her to water the flowers!

Alas, if His Royal Highness King Jing knew that the young lady had made such a waste of the ointment he had given, what would his expression be? Jinse refused to think about it anymore.

That night, Mrs. Jinye Hou came over and told Gu Ruoxi that they would go down the mountain tomorrow.

Gu Ruoxi was not surprised at all, after she heard that Mrs. Xu had come down the mountain this morning, she already knew that Mrs. Jinye Hou would definitely take them down the mountain in the next two days, and sure enough.

"Xi'er! Originally, the injury was not healed, and my mother didn't want to go down the mountain at this time, but I couldn't wait. Mrs. Jinye Hou sighed and said: "Dad has sued the emperor in front of the emperor, plus the king of Jing saved the water in the water, this matter is too big, the queen mother in the palace has issued a decree, to enter the palace to see her, we must hurry down the mountain." ”

"The Queen Mother wants to see me?" Gu Ruoxi couldn't help but be taken aback when she heard this, but soon, she returned to her normal color.

Mrs. Kazuba nodded and said, "Yes! Her beloved son went into the water to save a woman, and of course she wanted to see her. He said. She looked at her daughter's expression, and saw Gu Ruoxi sitting there, her face was calm, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart for her little daughter's concentration, and then continued: "This matter is in a uproar, the Queen Mother called into the palace, there are three meanings, first, she wants to see what kind of girl she is, second, warn to see if there are any thoughts that should not be born, if there are any, they will be extinguished, and third." She would ask some sons of the family to also enter the palace, and she would meet those people at that time, and the queen mother would let one of them be selected to be her future husband. ”

"These are all messages handed over by my father, and they are pure speculation, but nine times out of ten they can't be wrong."

When Gu Ruoxi heard this, she was immediately surprised: "Mother, the Queen Mother's movements can be so fast?" "And pick a husband! Want to marry her off so soon? But doesn't she have no reputation anymore?

Mrs. Jinye Hou saw Gu Ruoxi's suspicions, and immediately explained: "Xi'er. The Jinye Houfu is a first-class duke's mansion, and it is like a light weight in the court, and his father put on a posture of wanting to fight Xu Shangshu to the death, threatening to must

Seek justice for the sisters, the Queen Mother is no matter how powerful she is, she can't really chill the hearts of the courtiers, and if she moves the Jinye Houfu, there will be changes in the court, and then she will have to marry His Royal Highness King Jing, but this is what the Queen Mother never wants, she belongs to Zhang Yan, the granddaughter of Prime Minister Zhang. Therefore, she selected so many sons of the family to enter the palace and asked her to choose a husband from them. ”

"First, I have nothing to do with King Jing from now on, and second, I have a happy marriage. The Queen Mother can be regarded as having an explanation for the Gu family. Mrs. Kazuba said slowly.

Gu Ruoxi sat there silently listening, and after a long time, she glanced up at Mrs. Jinye Hou and asked, "So, mother, what do you want your daughter to do?" ”

When Mrs. Jinye Hou heard her say such a sentence, a trace of relief suddenly appeared on her face: "Xi'er! To be able to say such a sentence is worthy of being my daughter! As she spoke, she patted Gu Ruoxi on the shoulder. smiled: "Dad has been prepared for this matter for a long time." ”

When Gu Ruoxi heard this, she immediately blurted out and asked, "Mother, have you already found my mother-in-law's family?" ”

Mrs. Jinye Hou nodded, smiled slightly, and said: "Yes, my father mentioned to my mother before that the son of Lord Xu's family is young and promising, only seventeen years old, and he is already an official in the court, and he is considered a leader in the young generation, the most important thing is that this young man is not impetuous, he is very smart in doing things, and his father loves it very much." The two families had vaguely handed over this before, and the Xu family also intended to marry this family business. ”

Gu Ruoxi listened, and wanted to ask if the Xu family would be willing after this incident? But she looked at Mrs. Jinye Hou's expression, and suddenly had an idea, and couldn't help asking: "Mother, the son of the Xu family is also among the people chosen by the Queen Mother?" ”

"Clever!" Mrs. Jinye Hou immediately praised: "Isn't it inside?" Xi'er, when the time comes to enter the palace, the attitude is not humble or silent, if the queen mother asks to choose one of them, choose the son of the Xu family! ”

Gu Ruoxi nodded, but asked, "But, mother, I don't know that Xu Gongzi!" What if you don't recognize him? ”

"This is easy to do, my father sent a portrait of Xu Gongzi with the secret letter, and my mother has already brought it." Mrs. Jinye Hou said, and immediately stretched out her hand, and Mama Wang on the side hurriedly took the box she had been holding in her hand, opened it, took out a painting scroll from it, and opened it in front of Gu Ruoxi.

In the painting, a young man with red and white lips stands pretty, with long narrow eyes, a smile at the corner of his mouth, and a jade-faced Qinghua with a handsome body. Indeed, as Mrs. Jinye Hou said, this Xu Gongzi is indeed good.

Gu Ruoxi glanced at it several times before retracting his gaze, and asked with a calm face: "Mother, what is the name of this Xu Gongzi?" ”

"Xu Xian, Zihui." Mrs. Kazuba Hou said lightly.

"Xu Xian?" Gu Ruoxi's jaw almost fell to the ground in shock.

"It's a virtuous, not an immortal!" Mrs. Kashiba Hou reluctantly repeated

Again, I couldn't help but reach out and support my forehead, her daughter has always been very different from ordinary people's thoughts, she finally understood, it's just a name, what's so strange?

"Okay, this Xu Xian Xu Gongzi, my daughter remembers. When the time comes, choose him. Gu Ruoxi coughed.

Seeing that she agreed so happily, Mrs. Kazuba Hou didn't even hesitate at all, and couldn't help but ask, "Xi'er has thought about it?" ”

"What's there to think about here, since my father helped me choose, what's wrong with that?" Gu Ruoxi replied lightly: "He has lived for half his life, what kind of person has he never seen, since he is a character respected by his father, he must be worthy of his daughter, what do I have to worry about?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Jinye Hou couldn't say a word anymore, she came here to persuade Gu Ruoxi to choose this Xu Xian Gongzi, but she didn't expect Gu Ruoxi to agree without even a trace of hesitation, and she prepared a basket of words, which she didn't need at the moment.

But that King Jing, Gu Ruoxi never mentioned it from beginning to end.

Mrs. Jinye Hou was still not at ease after thinking about it, she couldn't help but ask: "Xi'er, His Royal Highness King Jing has been diligent in the past two days, really, can he be forgotten?" ”

"It's not a person of the same level, and I won't cross paths in the future, what can I forget?" Gu Ruoxi replied more and more casually: "I didn't remember it at all!" ”

"Huh?" Mrs. Jinye Hou was taken aback again, and it took a while for her to realize what Gu Ruoxi meant by what she said, and she couldn't help but be angry and funny: "Then you even forgot the grace of saving your life?" "He's a prologue player.

"I haven't forgotten this, but I don't think His Royal Highness King Jing cares about my reward." Gu Ruoxi shrugged.
