Chapter 279: Goodbye Without Saying Goodbye

♂? ,,

"Hey!" Mrs. Kazuha suddenly sighed, she was supposed to comfort others today, but she didn't expect that she was brainwashed by other people's words.

"Xi'er, I hope that in the Queen Mother's Cining Palace, there can be calmness at this moment." Mrs. Jinye Hou said, but laughed: "There is one thing that is right, the husband candidate, Dad He has indeed been deliberated for a long time, and he originally wanted to test that Xu Gongzi again, but suddenly this big thing happened, and the Queen Mother was forced so tightly that she had no choice but to advance." ”

Gu Ruoxi listened and did not speak.

"Family background or something, he doesn't care about his father, but he cares a lot about his son-in-law's character." Mrs. Jinye Hou smiled and sighed: "My sister Xu gave the prince, this marriage is the emperor's master, and his father has no room for interference, at this time he is quite regretful, so when it is his turn, he planned it very early, and that Xu Gongzi's father is full of praise for him, if he doesn't love it very much, he can't move his mind to marry Xu to him." ”

"Mother, I see." Gu Ruoxi smiled slightly and said.

"If Daddy knew that he believed in him so much, he might be so happy!" Mrs. Jinye Hou said, stood up and said, "Okay, have a good rest, look at the painting more if you have nothing to do, and don't forget what Xu Gongzi looks like." So saying, he went to the door.

Gu Ruoxi hurriedly asked Jin Se to send it, but when Mrs. Jinye Hou walked to the door, she suddenly asked, "Mother, even if I choose Xu Gongzi, it will take a few years to get married, right?" ”

Mrs. Jinye Hou's body was stunned suddenly, and after a long while, she turned her head, smiled at Gu Ruoxi, and said, "Silly boy, what are you talking about!" My sister hasn't married yet! What's more, he is only twelve years old now, and he will have to marry at least in the future, so don't worry. With that, he lifted his feet and left.

However, the smile on Gu Ruoxi's face gradually faded.

Mrs. Kazuha Hou said so, and the Queen Mother must agree!

It seems that this matter needs to be planned carefully, she has not been able to completely change the outcome of the previous life of the Kazuba Houfu, how can she marry in a hurry?

Just now, Mrs. Jinye Hou has been avoiding a question and has not talked about it, Gu Ruoxi knows it. But she didn't want to ask anything here, she just planned to wait for tomorrow after the mountain came down, and then returned to the house to ask Jinye Hou in person.

Thinking of this, Gu Ruoxi couldn't help but smile bitterly, she just jumped into the water to save a Gu Yuetong, but she didn't expect to pull out so many things! How on earth is it going for her to get rid of all this trouble?

But can she not save Gu Yuetong? The answer is no.

At the same time, Xuanyuan Jingxi stayed in his yard, listening to the guard's report: "I never remembered." His eyes suddenly froze.

But soon, it was back to normal.

"Go on." Xuanyuan Jingxi said expressionlessly.

Mo Yun looked at the appearance of his master,

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, how could the head of the second lady of the ancient family be made of elm? The master has done this, why doesn't she understand? It is said that men chase women. In the next layer of the mountain, Mo Yun didn't believe it before, but now, he did.

"Back to the prince's words, the Gu family is already preparing to go down the mountain tomorrow, and at the same time, Mrs. Jinye Hou has also successfully persuaded the second miss Gu, and when the queen mother summons her, the second miss of the Gu family will choose the son of the Xu family......" The guard who had just reported the matter spoke again. He double-stroked.

Xuanyuan Jingxi listened expressionlessly, and then, he was silent.

After a long time, he slowly spoke: "Never remembered me?" Are you sure? There was something very meaningful in the tone.

Mo Yun on the side couldn't help but say: "Lord Wang, do you want the slave to send someone to do something to that Xu Gongzi, so that he can't go to the palace that day?" ”

"Stupid!" Xuanyuan Jingxi scolded mercilessly: "There is no Xu Xian." Kazuha Hou will find another person to replace him, what's the use of doing this? It's just a laughing stock! ”

"That's what the prince said!" When Mo Yun heard this reprimand, he couldn't help but touch his son, and then he didn't dare to say anything. Xuanyuan Jingxi was obviously already angry, and he dared to speak, it was clearly looking for death!

The room suddenly fell silent. Only the candle flame burned quietly, shining on Xuanyuan Jingxi's expressionless, but handsome face.

Mo Yun keenly realized that since his master knew that the second lady of the Gu family had agreed to Mrs. Kazuhahou's words. His eyes instantly became dozens of times colder, and his whole body exuded the message that no one should be close, and even he, who had been following him since childhood, did not dare to step forward to disturb him.

After a long time, Xuanyuan Jingxi slowly spoke: "Pass the order, tonight, go back to the palace!" With that, he turned and strode into the back room.

Mo Yun stood aside, his eyes suddenly widened with copper bells, go back to the palace? It's almost midnight!

But what Xuanyuan Jingxi said was always true to his word, and Mo Yun stood there stunned for a moment, and then turned around and prepared to go with the guard.

After a cup of tea, a sturdy team left Huguo Temple and went down the mountain like wolves in the night.

……

Gu Ruoxi slept very well at night, and when she woke up, she didn't realize that the sun was already old, and she opened her eyes. I saw Mrs. Jinye Hou and Gu Yuetong waiting by her bedside, both of them were wearing clothes to go out, it seemed that they had already packed up, just waiting for her to get up.

"Mother, why didn't you wake me up when you came?" Gu Ruoxi hurriedly sat up from the bed.

Mrs. Jinye Hou smiled slightly and said, "I'm still sick, it's always good to sleep a little longer, how can my mother bear to scream." He said. She stood up and said, "Okay, since you have already risen, then hurry up and let Jinse serve and dress!" ”

Gu Ruoxi sat on the bed and watched Mrs. Jinye Hou and Gu Yuetong walk out together, and then, she faced Jinse

"When did Madame come?" ”

"Back to Miss, Madame came early." Jin Se said slowly: "I didn't wake up, so I sat on the edge of the bed and waited, Miss, which clothes are you wearing today?" ”

Gu Ruoxi's mind was not here, and he just said lightly at the moment: "Whatever, just pick one." ”

When Jin Se heard this, he immediately took out a pink stand-up collar narrow-sleeved shirt from his baggage, and embroidered it with tender yellow petals. It looks good, but as soon as Gu Ruoxi saw this dress, her brows furrowed tightly: "Change it!" It's so glamorous! ”

When Jin Se heard this, she immediately lowered her eyebrows, and she said a little unwillingly: "Miss, it's a twenty-eight girl, not an old woman, why do you wear so plain?" ”

Before Gu Ruoxi could answer, the voice of Mrs. Jinye Hou faintly came from the flower hall outside: "Xi'er, just listen to Jinse!" ”

When Jin Se heard this, she suddenly smiled and couldn't see her eyes, she hugged her clothes and blessed herself in the direction of the living room, and said with a smile: "Madame is wise!" ”

Gu Ruoxi was quite helpless to touch the child, so she had to fiddle with Jinse.

Half an hour later, Gu Ruoxi came out of the house dressed up, and as soon as she sat down at the table, a person walked in outside, it was Gu Xiaoye.

"Mother! Have you packed up? Okay, let's go! Otherwise, you won't be able to get to the Hou Mansion before dark. ”

Hearing this, Mrs. Jinye Hou nodded lightly and said, "Wait a minute, my sister hasn't had breakfast yet, and when she finishes eating, we'll leave." ”

When Gu Xiaoye heard this, she followed Mrs. Jinye Hou's gaze, and sure enough, she saw that the table in front of Gu Ruoxi was full of food, and she hadn't started eating yet. A hint of displeasure suddenly welled up in his heart.

When Mrs. Jinye Hou saw it, she immediately frowned and said, "Xiao'er, my sister still has injuries on her body, can't you be more considerate of her?" ”

Gu Xiaoye said lightly: "But I have prepared the most comfortable carriage for my sister to ride, isn't this okay?" Do you have to delay everyone from getting home before dark, is this considered understanding? I don't understand! ”

"Xiao'er! Shut up! When Mrs. Jinye Hou heard this, she was immediately angry, and she was about to question Gu Xiaoye, but at this moment, Gu Yuetong on the side suddenly stepped forward and grabbed her arm, and pleaded softly: "Mother! Let's not quarrel, okay? In this way, the little sister's heart will also be uncomfortable! Isn't it okay for everyone to sit down and talk well? ”

When Mrs. Jinye Hou heard that Gu Ruoxi would also be uncomfortable, she immediately stopped talking, Gu Yuetong persuaded her, and immediately turned her head to Gu Xiaoye: "Big brother, don't say a word."

, where did you get so angry early in the morning! ”

Gu Xiaoye gave Gu Yuetong the most face, and when he heard this, he also sat there silently.

This is a fuss, Gu Ruoxi can Ye Xin eat to eat, she hurriedly took two bites and put down the chopsticks: "Mother, I'm full." ”

"That's what you eat? How can this be

? Eat a little more! Mrs. Kazuba immediately persuaded her.

Gu Ruoxi shook her head and said, "Mother, I really can't eat it." ”

Seeing that there was no way, Mrs. Jinye Hou had no choice but to stop persuading her, and after waiting for a while, Jinse packed up Gu Ruoxi's things, and everyone got into the carriage and went down the mountain together.

In the carriage, Jin Se saw that there was no one around, so he immediately took out a square carved brocade box from a bag, handed it to Gu Ruoxi mysteriously, and said: "Miss, the slave knows that you are not full, no, I have prepared a few snacks for you." ”

"How can there be a snack in the temple? I'm afraid we've already eaten the dim sum we brought, right? Gu Ruoxi immediately asked suspiciously.

Jin Se smiled: "Don't worry about it so much, Miss, you eat first." As he spoke, he shoved the pastry into Gu Ruoxi's hand.

Gu Ruoxi looked at her, looked down at the box again, and then opened it.

Inside lay a letter.

Gu Ruoxi's face changed suddenly.

She didn't go to get the letter, but lifted the curtain next to her, quickly threw out the box in her hand, and then turned her head to Jin Se and shouted, "Tell me honestly, where did this box come from!" ”

Jin Se was taken aback by her fierce stubble. It took a long time to react, and he hurriedly explained: "Miss! This box was handed over to the slave by the guards around His Royal Highness King Jing, saying that it must be handed over to Miss You, the slave didn't tell you just now, I wanted to give you a surprise, what's wrong? ”

Gu Ruoxi ignored her, but suddenly ordered the coachman to stop the carriage.

Seeing her so cautious, Jin Se was suddenly frightened and overwhelmed, and she stammered and asked, "Miss, what's wrong?" ”

"There's poison on that box!" Gu Ruoxi said lightly, as she spoke, she saw that the carriage had stopped, and said to Jin Se: "Why don't you come over and help me get out of the carriage, what are you doing there?" ”

Only then did Jin Se react. Busy himself got out of the carriage first, and then helped Gu Ruoxi to get out of the carriage.

Although Mrs. Jinye Hou's carriage was in the front, she ordered people to keep an eye on the situation of the carriage behind, and as soon as Gu Ruoxi got off the carriage here, she had already ordered all the carriages to stop, and then ordered Mama Wang beside her to come over to check the situation. The Gu Yuetong brothers and sisters didn't get out of the car, but only poked their heads out of the carriage to look.

When Mama Wang arrived, she saw Gu Ruoxi squatting on the ground looking at a box of pastries, and there was a letter on the box. She couldn't help but ask, "Second Miss, what's wrong with this box of pastries?" ”

Gu Ruoxi didn't raise his head and said, "This pastry is poisonous!" ”

Mama Wang was frightened, and hurriedly stared at Gu Ruoxi carefully, and saw that she was fine, so she put her mind at ease, and rushed back to report the news to Mrs. Jinye Hou.

After a while, everyone in the Gu family gathered in front of Gu Ruoxi.

"Xi'er, how do you know that this pastry is poisonous?" Mrs. Kashiba asked involuntarily.

When Gu Xiaoye heard this, her eyes were also firmly fixed on Gu Ruoxi.

"I guess." Gu Ruoxi is very single. She wouldn't tell them that she knew how to heal, and that the poison in this pastry was so common that she recognized it after just one glance.

"Giggles!" When Gu Yuetong heard this, she immediately laughed very unkindly: "Sister, how did you guess that this pastry is poisonous?" ”

"It's very simple, this is something of unknown origin, Jin Se said that it was given to her by a guard who claimed to be around His Royal Highness King Jing, but there are so many rich and noble people who come to incense in Huguo Temple. Who can be sure that person is next to His Royal Highness King Jing? Gu Ruoxi said lightly: "I don't believe that this pastry is not unusual." ”

When Mrs. Jinye Hou heard that this pastry was given by King Jing, her face immediately changed, she did not hesitate, and immediately ordered someone to invite the Hou Mansion doctor who was sitting in the last carriage.

After some investigation, the house doctor confirmed what Gu Ruoxi said: "Mrs. Hui, this pastry is indeed arsenic-frost that has been poisoned!" ”

"It's true!" Mrs. Jinye Hou's face suddenly turned pale, and she couldn't help but turn her head to Gu Ruoxi and asked, "Xi'er, have you ever touched that pastry?" ”

Gu Ruoxi immediately shook his head: "As soon as Jin Se opened it, I smelled wrong." Just threw it away. ”

Jin Se stood aside, his legs and stomach trembling a little.

She never imagined that because of her negligence, she would present the highly poisonous pastry in front of her master, fortunately Gu Ruoxi was vigilant, otherwise, she would have died ten thousand times and would not be able to escape the blame!

"Miss! The slave is wrong! Jin Se's tears flowed.

"Don't cry, this is not bad, I make up my own mind whether to eat horizontally or vertically, and I don't have to blame myself." Gu Ruoxi waved his hand at Jinse.

At this time, Gu Xiaoye on the side suddenly spoke: "Sister, what's going on with this letter?" ”

As he spoke, everyone's eyes focused on the envelope, which had been ignored by everyone.

Gu Ruoxi turned his head and glanced at it casually, and said lightly: "Since the pastry is poisonous, it is contained in the envelope." It won't be a good thing either. ”

When she saw Jin Se's tears crying, she suddenly understood one thing, she knew who ordered this box of pastries.

Xu Ziyan.

She is the only one who will hate His Royal Highness King Jing's different attitude towards herself that day, and she is the only one who will want to get rid of herself. The Xu family went down the mountain yesterday, and Xu Ziyan specially called a guard to guard here, pretending to be His Royal Highness King Jing, and brought her pastries.

If Gu Ruoxi had a love for the wise and martial His Royal Highness King Jing, then she would definitely not have the slightest suspicion to eat this box of pastries.

The proportions are just right, but it's a pity that Xu Ziyan missed a little, and she Gu Ruoxi didn't have it at all

What do you think about His Royal Highness King Jing?

Thinking of this, Gu Ruoxi couldn't help but laugh lowly, this Xu Ziyan's heart is really ruthless! For the sake of a man, she is so ruthless, no wonder King Jing doesn't like her. This kind of person deserves it!

There is no need for her to do anything, this person will be defeated by his own viciousness sooner or later.

"Little sister, you really don't want to see what is written in this letter?" Gu Xiaoye asked in some surprise. Several of them present were surprised by this, and no one wanted to open the letter to see what was written inside. But Gu Ruoxi is so calm!

"yes, this envelope may be poisonous, I don't want to die before I look at it." Gu Ruoxi said, casually asked Jin Se for a fire fold, and threw it directly on the envelope.

Soon, the letter burned into a pile of ashes.

Gu Xiaoye stared at the pile of ashes for a moment, his eyes flashed, but he pretended to be calm and said, "Okay, it's finally in danger, let's hurry up and continue our journey!" Otherwise, I won't be able to go home at night. ”

Lady Jinye Hou and Gu Yuetong both nodded, and everyone returned to the carriage, and soon, the team set off again.

Sitting in the carriage, Jin Se looked at Gu Ruoxi and stopped talking.

Gu Ruoxi knew what she was thinking, so she said, "Jinse, don't ask, just listen to my orders." In addition, if my mother and sister come to ask questions, what do you say? As she spoke, she looked up at Jinse.

Jin Se replied without hesitation: "Miss, if the lady and the eldest lady intersect the slave maid, the slave and the maid will not say anything!" ”

Gu Ruoxi looked at her like this, but couldn't help laughing: "You can't say nothing, you have to ...... like this" Gu Ruoxi stretched out his head and said a few words to Jin Se in his ear.

Jin Se's eyes suddenly lit up, and he nodded hurriedly: "Okay!" Miss! Slaves do it! ”

Gu Ruoxi laughed again.
