Chapter 23 The young master accompanies her to see each other
Gu Xiyan returned to Xiyuan, opened several portraits and looked at them again and again, but her mind was far away.
Chunhua and Qiushi are full of joy. Missing a King of Qin and having so many outstanding men for girls to choose from are truly a blessing among misfortunes.
"I think Mr. Xu is the prettiest and the best match for the girl." Chunhua also came up to take a look and fell in love with Xu Yanqing at a glance.
Gu Xiyan laughed dumbly: "Why are you so superficial, just looking at your face?"
"Qiushi, do you think Mr. Xu and the girl are the best match?" Chunhua looked at Qiushi and asked.
Qiushi has her own idea: "Mr. Xu is good-looking, but he must also have good character. The most important thing is that the girl likes her. I hope that the girl can meet a husband who truly loves her."
, appearance is secondary."
Gu Xiyan deeply agreed: "No matter how good your appearance is, you will eventually grow old."
She put the portrait aside, feeling that money made her feel safe.
A few days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhou Mu sent someone to deliver a message to Gu Xiyan. The date of the interview was set for tomorrow at Xiangguo Temple. The person to be interviewed this time was Dong Yong, the second son of Yongcheng Hou.
After Gu Xiyan received the news, the happiest people were none other than Chunhua and Qiushi.
If they really saw it right, that young man might be their uncle tomorrow. How could they not be happy?
The person involved, Gu Xiyan, was very calm. She felt that it was just a matter of admiration. Even if she fell in love with someone, they might not like her. After all, her status in the Hou Mansion was awkward.
Although she has Zhou Mu's support, she cannot marry by force.
But seeing the two girls and Shen's mother looking happy, she couldn't bear to pour cold water on them.
The next day, Gu Xiyan got up early and was pulled by two girls to sit in front of the makeup mirror to dress up.
She has a beautiful face, and even if she doesn't put on special makeup, it's hard to look away. This time she specially put on light makeup to highlight her soft facial features, and her beautiful eyes are like clear lake water, translucent and charming.
Even the two girls who were accustomed to seeing her beauty couldn't help but hold their breath after seeing Gu Xiyan dressed up.
This is clearly a fairy descending to earth.
"I bet Mr. Dong couldn't take his eyes away when he saw the girl today." Chunhua said, specially helping Gu Xiyan choose a red dress.
But Gu Xiyan shook her head and said: "We are going to Xiangguo Temple. There is no need to dress too colorfully. Just wear normal clothes."
We are here to see each other, not to get married today, so why bother wearing such eye-catching clothes?
Chunhua had no choice but to choose a simple and elegant light-colored dress and helped Gu Xiyan change into it.
Before going out, Liu Chaoyan happened to bump into Gu Xiyan who was about to go out, and immediately made a sarcastic comment: "You run out all day long, don't you have some love outside? It doesn't matter if you are ruined, don't affect the marriage of other sisters.
”
Several girls in the Liu family have reached the age of proposing marriage, and Liu Junyan is also looking at each other. If there is any scandal about Gu Xiyan, it will affect the entire Hou family.
She saw that Gu Xiyan was restless and might do something bad or immoral.
Gu Xiyan was too lazy to pay attention to Liu Chaoyan, so she took Chunhua and Qiushi and planned to go out.
Liu Chaoyan looked at Gu Xiyan's back, looking at it horizontally and vertically.
Zhou Xing has not been to the Hou Mansion recently. Since the old lady’s birthday party, Zhou Xing has not walked around the Hou Mansion, which made her panic.
"Xiang Tao, send someone to inquire about His Royal Highness the King of Qin's recent whereabouts. If there is anything unusual, report it to me immediately." Liu Chaoyan was suddenly afraid that Zhou Xing would fall in love with someone else.
She didn't want to think about what happened that day in Qingxin Xiaozhu, but what would she do if Zhou Xing was with Su Ho recently?
"Yes, girl." Xiangtao accepted the order and left.
Gu Xiyan's carriage had just left the Marquis' Mansion, and Zhou Mu's carriage followed closely behind.
It was more than half an hour away from Xiangguo Temple, and Gu Xiyan was a weak woman, and the two maids around her were powerless, so he was naturally worried about her going to Xiangguo Temple alone.
As for the other people in Wanqinghou Mansion, he couldn't count on them, he could only keep a close eye on them.
Qi Zhiyuan felt that his young master was really worried about Miss Gu's marriage. People who didn't know better thought that the young master was Miss Gu's biological father, and even watched Miss Gu carefully when he looked at her.
Chunhua was the first to notice a carriage following behind her, and immediately reported the matter to Gu Xiyan.
Gu Xiyan lifted the curtain and looked over, recognizing that it was the carriage Zhou Mu was riding in: "It's Mr. Zhou. He thought he was worried about me going to Xiangguo Temple alone, so he followed me."
Chunhua joked: "Master Zhou treats girls so well. Those who don't know better would think that Master Zhou likes girls."
Gu Xiyan laughed and shook her head: "Don't say such things in the future. Mr. Zhou is an unmarried man. He will never marry anyone in his life."
Qiushi and Chunhua looked at each other and asked in unison: "How did the girl know?"
Gu Xiyan can't say that in her previous life, Zhou Mu became emperor and didn't get married, right?
He is not interested in love between men and women at all. He probably grew up in the Fallen Immortal Temple. He has no desire for power and has no interest in women at all.
She was vague, which was enough to get over the topic.
Dong Yong accompanied Mrs. Yongchenghou to Xiangguo Temple early.
Originally, the issue of Gu Xiyan's annulment by the King of Qin caused a storm in the city. No matter which noble family she belonged to, it was impossible for her to be interested in a down-and-out noblewoman who had just been annulled and was not valued by her family.
It happened that a few days ago, Liu Qing, a celebrity around Emperor Cheng De, personally delivered the imperial tribute fruits to Wanqing Hou Mansion. This matter had already spread in the capital.
Moreover, Emperor Chengde was the matchmaker himself this time. Under such circumstances, Gu Xiyan, no matter how miserable she was, became a piece of cake.
Dong Yong is actually not interested in looking at each other. He is only eighteen years old, and currently he just wants to make contributions. Men have ambitions in all directions, so why should they be trapped in the love between men and women too early?
Furthermore, he doesn't have much thought about women. Considering that he was born into a noble family like the Hou Mansion, although he is not the heir apparent, he should be rich and noble at all.
At present, he has no interest in getting married.
If his mother hadn't claimed that His Majesty was acting as a matchmaker, he wouldn't have come to Xiangguo Temple to see her today.
There was still a quarter of an hour before the appointed time, when Gu Xiyan, accompanied by Chunhua and Qiushi, went to the lotus pond of Xiangguo Temple.
A young man wearing a lavender straight dress embroidered with dark cloud patterns had his back to her, watching the fish in the pond.
Gu Xiyan didn't know if this was the person she admired, so she was a little hesitant to say hello.
Chunhua and Qiushi had a tacit understanding and gave Gu Xiyan a push at the same time.
Dong Yong turned around when he heard the movement behind him, and what he saw was a girl in a light blue dress. She was wearing light makeup, with delicate features, skin as white as snow, beautiful eyes, and a graceful appearance.
A gust of wind blew by, revealing her slender waistline. Her graceful figure was like a green willow, as if she wanted to ride the wind back.
She is actually a stunning beauty who is both innocent and extremely charming.
——
You Baozi can’t figure out Xiyan’s life experience, so Daqian will explain it here:
Liu Shu is Xiyan's biological father, and Wan Qinghou is Liu Shuzheng's younger brother. The eldest Gu is Xiyan's biological mother, but she died, and the younger Gu is the eldest Gu's biological sister, but she married Wan Qinghou.
In one sentence, the Gu sisters married the Liu brothers. I wonder if this would be simpler.
The treasures will run away after watching the show, leaving some traces of what they have seen and giving some encouragement to Daqian.
