Chapter 29: The Palace Banquet

Gu Xiyan was speechless for a while, not knowing what Dong Yong meant by this.

"It's better to meet by chance, just now you said to go to enjoy chrysanthemums with me, and go to cash in now." Dong Yong's case was conclusive.

Gu Xiyan remembered that she had made an appointment with Su Mei today, and excused herself: "I have something to do today, so I can't travel with adults." ”

"Can you do it tomorrow?" Dong Yong looked at Gu Xiyan with burning eyes.

Gu Xiyan avoided Dong Yong's straightforward eyes, and couldn't figure out what Dong Yong was making trouble about, didn't he think she was clumsy and didn't like her?

Dong Yong was not in a hurry, just waiting for Gu Xiyan's answer.

In the end, Gu Xiyan still decided to agree, after all, it was better to pay back the favor as soon as possible.

"That's it, I'll invite the adults to have lunch in Jixiang Building tomorrow." Gu Xiyan responded.

Lonely men and widows go to enjoy chrysanthemums, what accident really has to happen, I can't tell. It's better to have a meal in a crowded restaurant, so that Dong Yong's favor can be repaid.

"According to what the girl said, Jixianglou will be waiting for the girl at noon tomorrow." Dong Yong had a smile in his eyes.

Gu Xiyan responded with a gentle voice and got into the carriage with Qiu Shi's support.

Gu Xiyan's carriage had already gone away, and Dong Yong's scholar Xiaohu saw that Gongzi was still watching, and asked suspiciously: "Gongzi said that he didn't like Miss Gu yesterday, why can't he take his eyes off Miss Gu today?" ”

Dong Yong tapped Xiaohu's head, "It's me who is blind, and I make a conclusion based on only one side." This Gu girl is eloquent and intelligent, and she is by no means a wooden beauty like the legend. ”

What kind of person is Zhou Xing? That is the prince that His Majesty values the most today, usually he wants the wind to be windy, and the rain to be rainy, except for His Majesty, who can cure it?

But such a well-known figure was repelled by Gu Xiyan's words today. In other words, if it is another woman, she is happy to be around, and she is afraid that she will directly commit herself to King Qin, even if she is a concubine, it is also beautiful. If you don't like Zhou Xing, you will be entangled in the street by Zhou Xing, you will be scared half to death, and it is unknown if you are taken away by Zhou Xing blocking the street.

Gu Xiyan should have been scared as well, but he still endured his fear, and forced Zhou Xing to retreat with his tongue and lotus flower, which was enough to show that Gu Xiyan was a little anxious.

"Childe can't be a crush on Miss Gu, right?" Xiaohu asked curiously.

Dong Yongai's smiling eyes sank, and he said after a while: "I just think Miss Gu is a little interesting." I helped her, and it wasn't fair for her to invite me to dinner? ”

Xiaohu said in his heart, but he didn't see Gongzi entangled with a girl like this before. Miss Gu said that something was wrong, and the son had to make another appointment tomorrow.

Miss Gu had no choice but to agree to Childe's date.

After saying goodbye to Dong Yong, Gu Xiyan hurried to the Golden Jade Pavilion, not wanting Su Mei to be one step ahead of her.

"Why are you here so late?" Su Mei saw Gu Xi's face in a hurry, and asked with concern.

Gu Xiyan told him about meeting Zhou Xing, and Su Mei was terrified when he heard it: "His Royal Highness King Qin won't be eyeing you just like that, you have to be careful." ”

"I'm worried, too. However, King Qin has recently gotten close to Soho, the two are not clear, and with Liu Chaoyan staring at him, King Qin will not do anything that will damage his great cause for the sake of me as a woman. Gu Xiyan didn't have much confidence when he said this.

After all, in her previous life, she was taken captive by Zhou Xing to the other garden under the Fallen Immortal Temple, and was locked up for two whole years, Zhou Xing acted crazy, and did everything, in her previous life, she had seen Zhou Xing when he was the craziest.

She only hoped that Soho would be attractive enough to make Zhou Xingfen lack skills and not have the heart to deal with her.

"In short, you have to be careful. By the way, what's the matter with you in a hurry to see me? Su Mei asked.

Gu Xiyan said what Zhou Du said yesterday, and Su Mei felt outrageous after hearing it, "You mean that Zhou Gongzi will always hold us?" ”

"Originally, I thought that the matter was over, but listening to Zhou Gongzi's meaning was just the opposite, and I should be careful in everything in the future. Seeing Zhou Xing today, I suddenly felt that it was not safe to meet you as a daughter. I plan to buy a house outside, just on Tianhe Street, where Wanqinghou's Mansion is located, and then I can go out as a man and cover up my identity. Gu Xiyan said his plan: "It's not appropriate for me to use my identity to buy a house, I want to ask if you have a reliable acquaintance to buy a house in the name of that person." ”

Su Mei nodded again and again, "If there is this house, we can meet in this house in the future, and we don't have to hide in Tibet." ”

"That's what I thought, too. When the house is purchased, the purchase of the land begins. At the same time, our grain stacks will be opened. At present, the largest grain markets are in Wuxi and Wuhu, and I am wondering if the third largest grain market can be our future grain store......"

The reason why Gu Xiyan was in a hurry to open the grain stack was to prevent a possible food crisis in the future.

She remembered that Zhou Xing was in collusion with the Wuxi grain market, which easily controlled grain prices, and later caused chaos in grain prices and problems with people's livelihood.

If the grain store they built can fill the vacancy in Wuxi in the future, and the price of rice can maintain a balance between supply and demand, the price of grain will not be able to rise.

Of course, the premise is that they want to make a grain stack.

If Su Mei had heard Gu Xiyan say that she would establish the third largest grain market in the country in the capital, she would have felt ridiculous.

But after experiencing charcoal speculation, she felt that anything could happen.

Just like Gu Xiyan said, you don't break the law if you think about it. Moving towards a set goal, if it is a surprise, it is not a matter if it is not done.

"I even chose the name of the grain store, and it was called the grain store." Gu Xiyan's beautiful eyes were as clear and clear as fire.

Su Mei smiled dumbly when she saw Gu Xiyan like this: "It's a pity that you are a daughter." ”

"It's a pity, although there are many inconveniences, but you can walk as a man in the future. There are a lot of things that require you to show up, and I'm still behind the scenes. ”

Su Mei had no objections.

"In the future, you have to be especially careful of Soho, she is not a small person, and she has an affair with the King of Qin, if there is no accident, Soho will be the biggest obstacle on our business road." Gu Xiyan said with a straight face.

The two discussed for two hours, and did not leave the Golden Jade Pavilion until the afternoon.

Gu Xiyan only returned to the Hou Mansion in the afternoon, and heard that the old lady was looking for her.

She hurried to Zaohui Hall, and when the old lady saw her coming, she looked her up and down: "You have been out of the house a lot lately?" ”

Gu Xiyan knew that this matter could not be hidden from the old lady, so she replied truthfully: "I don't want to be bored in the house, so I go out for a walk." ”

The old lady took a deep look at Gu Xiyan, and said earnestly: "You are the noble daughter of the Hou Mansion, you need to be cautious, you can't break the rules of the Hou Mansion, let alone the reputation of the Hou Mansion." Although I, an old woman, rarely discipline you, there are some things that you have to be measured. ”

"What my grandmother said is that Xiyan can save it." Gu Xiyan responded gently.

If the Wanqing Hou Mansion was too strict, it would affect her earning money, so she simply left the Hou Mansion and set up her own door.

Therefore, she did not pay attention to the old lady's words.

Of course, the old lady's beating was not because she cared about her, but because she was worried that she would affect the marriages of other ladies in the Hou Mansion.

"In two days, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the palace will hold a chrysanthemum banquet, and Concubine Xian will let you enter the palace with Chaoyan." The old lady got to the point.
