Chunhua understood, "My servant also thinks that Young Master Xu is good. He has outstanding appearance, a great family background, and is a capable man. If the girl marries Young Master Xu, she will definitely live a happy life."
Gu Xiyan's mind was still on Zhou Mu and she couldn't listen to what the two girls said.
"Do you think Mr. Zhou treats me too well?" Gu Xiyan wanted to ask them if there was a possibility that Zhou Mu might like her.
The two girls looked at each other and secretly exclaimed, "Oh no, the girl is really being sentimental. I think it was Mr. Zhou's really good-looking face that made the girl lose her mind."
"That's because Mr. Zhou treats the girl very well because he sees the girl as pitiful. Mr. Zhou really cares about the girl, otherwise he wouldn't be in a hurry to marry her off." Qiushi reminded this ironclad fact again.
Gu Xiyan slumped her shoulders: "Is it possible that Mr. Zhou's feelings for me have changed now..."
Her words stopped abruptly.
What on earth was she talking about? Could it be that she really hoped that Zhou Mu fell in love with her, so he was so nice to her and teased her like this today?
Zhou Mu is a person with six senses of peace, and can be compared to ordinary men. How can she put Zhou Mu on the same level as other ordinary people?
"The young master regards the girl as a friend, so he stands up for her in everything. It must be because the girl has a pitiful background and was rejected by His Highness King Qin, so the young master just drew his sword to help him when he saw injustice, right?" Qiushi knew that the girl was interested in the guy next door.
I shouldn't have such thoughts, otherwise I wouldn't ask such a question.
She winked at Chunhua again. Chunhua was also afraid that her daughter would be deceived by Mr. Zhou's beauty, so she stepped forward to persuade him: "Girl, it's better to settle the marriage as soon as possible? His Highness, King Qin, has no lower limit for a person. Last time, the girl was against King Qin."
Your Highness's harsh words suggest that His Highness the King of Qin may have harbored a grudge and chosen an opportunity to attack the girl. The girl's marriage cannot be delayed any longer."
Gu Xiyan's impetuous heart suddenly sank.
She thought that she had died young in her previous life, and that she could not follow the same path in this life. Just now, she was still delusional that Zhou Mu might have feelings for a man and a woman. How could an outsider like him be attracted to a woman?
She can no longer think about it.
"It's too late today. Tomorrow you go out to the Xu family and tell Miss Xu Zhen'er that I want to meet Young Master Xu. The meeting place will be at Jixiang Building, about noon the day after tomorrow." Gu Xi looked serious.
road.
She wanted to settle her marriage as soon as possible and no longer have unrealistic illusions.
Furthermore, Zhou Mu is the eldest prince of the current dynasty and will be the one who will ascend to that position in the future. How can she match someone like this?
"No need to worry about it, slave." Qiushi replied.
Putting aside her thoughts, Gu Xiyan's heart finally stopped pounding. Just as she was about to look at the account book, she thought of Zhou Xing again.
Zhou Xing left in a rage that day and has not made any move yet. She is only worried that Zhou Xing is waiting for an opportunity behind her. She is a little worried about Qiushi going out alone tomorrow.
"How about delivering the message? I'm afraid that King Qin is waiting for an opportunity in secret. If he attacks you while you are out of the palace, what will happen?" Gu Xiyan said worriedly.
"This slave is of no importance. Why would His Highness King Qin do anything to this slave? The girl is overthinking it. I have to go there in person tomorrow, and the girl's marriage must be decided as soon as possible." Qiushi comforted Gu Xiyan in turn: "Don't worry, miss, slave.
I will definitely take care of myself.”
Gu Xiyan was still worried, but Qiushi insisted on making the trip in person, so she had to give up.
It's a pity that she didn't invite Hu Die, otherwise she could have asked Hu Die to escort Qiushi.
That night, Gu Xiyan still couldn't sleep well because as soon as she closed her eyes, she could see the details of her time with Zhou Mu.
Just like that, half asleep and half awake, dawn came.
Whether it was because of her bad mood or because she was worried about Qiushi, she couldn't sit still for an hour.
"Qiushi has been out for so long and you haven't come back yet?" Gu Xiyan stood in front of the Xiyuan gate and looked around.
Min'er was sweeping the area nearby, and when she heard Gu Xiyan's words, she came over and asked, "Where did Qiushi go?"
"I sent her to deliver a letter to the Xu family, but she hasn't come back for an hour. I'm afraid something might happen to her." Gu Xiyan was worried.
She should have insisted not to let Qiushi go out last night.
"Don't worry, girl. Qiushi is smart and will be fine." Min'er reassured Gu Xiyan.
Gu Xiyan sighed softly: "What's the use of being smart? If King Qin threatens me with her, do you think she can escape?"
It just so happens that Min'er is a trustworthy person. If Qiu Shi is really taken away by Zhou Xing's people, Zhou Mu will definitely help her.
When Min'er heard Gu Xiyan mention Zhou Xing, she realized why Gu Xiyan was so worried.
The fact was that Gu Xiyan was not overly concerned. After another half an hour, Qiushi still didn't come back, so she knew that the problem was serious.
Zhou Xing's people kept watch in that chamber for several days, and finally saw Qiushi leaving the house, so they took them directly to Zhou Xing.
Just because Zhou Xing had already given the order, there were three people around Gu Xiyan, and no matter who they caught, they could be used to threaten Gu Xiyan.
Zhou Xing has been by Gu Xiyan's side all these years, and she knows very well what Gu Xiyan's weaknesses are. Gu Xiyan's biggest weakness is that she is too affectionate, and she has such a good relationship with the few attendants around her.
Zhou Xing got the letter that Qiushi had not sent. He opened it and read it and laughed angrily.
She didn't want to be his concubine, but she took the initiative to show favor to the Xu family and even exchanged private letters with Xu Yanqing. Wasn't this a slap in his face?
"Take the sachet from Qiushi and send it to Xiyan, and ask her to go to the eastern suburbs alone to meet the king." As Zhou Xing spoke, he tore the letter to Xu Yanqing into pieces.
"Yes, Your Highness!" Zhao De took the order and left.
Min'er didn't dare to delay that time, so she entered the Zhou Mansion from the secret room and told Nanny Yin about the matter.
"Young Master may not return home at noon. I have to go to the government office to ask for an audience with Young Master. You should first look back at the girl and adapt to changes." Aunt Yin explained.
Min'er was also afraid of causing trouble, so she hurried back to the Hou Mansion from the secret room.
Not long after she returned to Xiyuan, a woman came to Xiyuan and took the sachet that Qiushi usually wore and gave it to Gu Xiyan.
"This old slave is here to deliver a message. Your Majesty, please ask Miss Gu to go to the eastern suburbs immediately. Otherwise, the owner of the sachet will die today!"
When Gu Xiyan heard it was Dongjiao, her heartbeat slowed down for half a beat.
Isn't the eastern suburbs in the direction of Fallen Immortal Temple?
The villa where Zhou Xing imprisoned her in her previous life was at the foot of the Fallen Immortal Temple.
After going around and around, Zhou Xing really came up with the idea of imprisoning her again.
"I'll go over now." Gu Xiyan said and walked out of Xiyuan. At this time, Chunhua chased her out: "I will go with the girl."
"The noble man told me that the girl can only go alone. The girl had better obey the noble man's instructions, otherwise the life of the owner of the sachet will be judged today." The mother-in-law said with a threat.
"You stay in the house until Qiushi and I come back." Gu Xiyan glanced at Chunhua and walked away with her mother-in-law.
