Chapter 42: Rob People!
Gu Xiyan got out of bed and slowly tidied up the folds on her dress: "Miss Yuan, let's take care of yourself, you must hide your love for your son." I don't have many opportunities to meet my son, and Miss Yuan doesn't need to be my rival in love. ”
Yuan Nianci was suddenly annoyed and angry: "What did Miss Gu say? I can't understand a word! ”
Her voice was sharp and piercing, and Gu Xiyan glanced at her lightly: "I really should let Gongzi see Miss Yuan's gaffe at the moment." ”
Yuan Nianci clenched his fists and suppressed the annoyance in his heart.
Obviously, she hid her feelings very well, not only did Zhou Dui not find out, but even the other people who were serving around Zhou Du didn't find out her thoughts, why was Gu Xiyan able to see it?
Gu Xiyan didn't entangle with Yuan Nianci anymore, and walked out of Zhou Dui's bedroom.
She tried to remember how she got out of the palace and how she came to the Zhou Mansion, but she couldn't remember anything. It can only be said that Zhou Xing's medicine to her is so domineering, and she was able to escape today, all because Zhou Du was in the palace and helped her.
If she hadn't been saved by Zhou Du today, her life would have been ruined by Zhou Xing again.
She wanted to thank Zhou Du before leaving, but Qi Zhiyuan told her that Zhou Du was busy.
Gu Xiyan was a smart person, and immediately understood what Zhou Duan meant by not wanting to see her.
"Then I bother you to help me convey it, today's son's rescue grace, Xiyan will have the opportunity to repay him in the future." Gu Xiyan didn't dwell on it anymore.
There must be a reason why Twilight didn't want to see her, she was just grateful that Twilight had reached out to her.
"Girl, walk slowly." Seeing that Gu Xiyan was going back to the Hou Mansion, Qi Zhiyuan sent him off politely.
After sending Gu Xiyan out of the Zhou Mansion, Qi Zhiyuan went to Zhou Du to reply: "Miss Gu is going back, and before leaving, let her subordinates convey their gratitude to the son." ”
He didn't know why Gongzi suddenly didn't want to see Miss Gu, didn't he care about Miss Gu like that before?
Zhou Du lost his mind for a moment, and his eyes fell on the withered branches outside the window: "Go out." ”
Yuan Nianci saw Gu Xiyan leaving, did not pester Zhou Dui, and immediately relieved himself. She wanted to see Zhou Dui again, but Zhou Dui sent Qi Zhiyuan to send her away.
After Gu Xiyan left, Zhou Duan wanted to read a book to pass the time, but he couldn't settle down, and an hour passed, and he didn't read anything.
Later, he simply entered the meditation room, meditated, and his impetuous mood gradually calmed down.
That Gu Xiyan returned to the West Garden of the Hou Mansion, and his heart was still pressed with heavy stones.
What happened today, in the final analysis, she was too careless. She didn't expect Zhou Xing to dare to drug her in front of everyone, and she didn't expect Zhou Xing to be so arrogant under the nose of Emperor Chengde.
She didn't know what happened after she left the palace, but she couldn't swallow the breath of being calculated by Zhou Xing.
But how can she, a weak woman who is powerless, confront the powerful King of Qin?
If she was still hesitant to snatch food before, after this battle, she made up her mind.
She can't fight against Zhou Xing, but that doesn't mean she can't snatch Zhou Xing's right-hand man.
With a general idea, she repaired a book and asked Qiu Shi to deliver the letter to Su Mei as soon as possible.
Su Mei received a letter written by Gu Xiyan in the evening. The letter said that let her go to the inn the day after tomorrow, and asked her to save a young man named Rong Song in front of Zhou Xing, and the letter also said that Rong Song was very business-minded. When the grain stack is opened, Rong Song will manage the grain stack.
Gu Xiyan also specially reminded her in the letter that Rong Song is both good and evil, and she must deal with it carefully.
After receiving Gu Xiyan's letter, Su Mei planned to go to the inn early the morning after tomorrow, and must not let King Qin snatch Rong Song away in front of her.
Since Rong Song is the person Gu Xiyan fancies, he must be a capable person.
In order to avoid Gu Xiyan's worry, she specially replied to Gu Xiyan, saying that she would handle the matter.
In Wanqinghou's mansion, the old lady went home, so she called Gu Xiyan to ask questions.
"Why did you leave the table in the middle of the table today, and leave the palace one step early? How did you get home? The old lady had doubts in her heart, so she asked directly.
Gu Xiyan said the words that he had prepared early in the morning: "Xiyan doesn't know which nobleman in the palace prepared the carriage, and the chamberlain also said that it was arranged by His Majesty's will." ”
When the old lady heard that it was the carriage arranged by His Majesty, her eyes lit up: "Really?!" ”
"How dare Xi Yan laugh at His Majesty?" Gu Xiyan's expression was calm.
With the extent that Emperor Chengde favored Zhou Dui, she said this and it was not a lie.
Liu Chaoyan was also in the old lady's house, and she looked Gu Xiyan up and down, wondering if Gu Xiyan was lying.
In fact, the first person to leave at the banquet today was Gu Xiyan, and then Zhou Xing and others left one after another. She always suspected that the reason why Zhou Xing left the table was for Gu Xiyan.
At that time, she was actually very scared, afraid that the person who was messing with Zhou Xing in Feiyun Pavilion was Gu Xiyan.
Later, when she saw that it was a eunuch who was entangled with Zhou Xing, she felt ashamed at the same time, but she was also very glad that it was not Gu Xiyan, otherwise where would her face go?
"Then why did my sister suddenly leave the palace early?" Liu Chaoyan was still skeptical of Gu Xiyan.
"Concubine Xian doesn't like me, my sister is also guarding against me, I think it's better to leave the palace early, so as not to let my sister think cranky." Gu Xiyan looked at Liu Chaoyan with a gentle expression: "Why is my sister and grandmother concerned about my early return home, but what happened in the palace?" ”
The old lady was also worried that Zhou Xing wanted to attack Gu Xiyan, but Gu Xiyan was helpless in the Hou Mansion, and there was no help in the Deep Palace, and His Majesty was still at the banquet at that time. Even so, it is impossible for Zhou Xing to mess with the eunuchs behind Gu Xiyan's back.
But she thought about it, and actually linked Zhou Xing's scandal with Sister Xi'er.
"Nothing. Now that you're here, you're all having dinner at Zaohui Hall. The old lady stopped this topic, and now she also looked up to Gu Xiyan by three points.
In the face of Princess Baohe's difficulties today, Gu Xiyan did not show timidity, nor did he embarrass the Hou Mansion, which shows that Gu Xiyan stood up on his own.
Later, His Majesty let Gu Xiyan accompany him, which made the Hou Mansion lose face. What even Liu Chaoyan couldn't do, Gu Xiyan did it, this is Gu Xiyan's ability.
A girl who can make Wanqinghou Mansion have a long face, and she, who is a grandmother, must also be treated kindly.
During the banquet, the old lady greeted Gu Xiyan with cold and warmth, but Liu Chaoyan was left out in the cold, which made Liu Chaoyan's heart very uncomfortable.
In the past, she had always pressed Gu Xiyan's head, where could Gu Xiyan show her face?
But now? Gu Xiyan actually made her grandmother value it so much, which made her vigilant.
After finishing dinner, Gu Xiyan said goodbye and left, Liu Chaoyan deliberately knocked Gu Xiyan a few words, and hurriedly followed.
"It's better for my sister to be a little more peaceful. My marriage with Brother Ah Xing has already been decided, and my sister should not do any more useless work! Liu Chaoyan warned Gu Xiyan in a low voice.
