Zhou Mu's words comforted Gu Xiyan, who just thought he didn't like her so she pushed her away.
"Is the young master okay?" Gu Xiyan's eyes unconsciously glanced at his lower body.
She has not forgotten Qi Zhiyuan and Nanny Yin's speculation. After all, it is true that Zhou Mu wanted to cancel her marriage a few days ago, and it is also true that Zhou Mu asked Qi Zhiyuan that question.
But she couldn't see the doorway through the heavy clothes.
Zhou Mu didn't realize what Gu Xiyan's question meant.
He followed her gaze to his lower abdomen, and then the tips of his ears felt hot, and his whole body suddenly felt hot.
Which man can endure the woman he loves looking at him like this? Although he is poisoned, his body's various functions are fine.
He quietly turned around, avoiding Gu Xiyan's direct gaze, "What do you mean by that?"
"To be honest with you, the young master just drank the tonic soup that was very tonic. I want to know if the young master is okay after drinking the tonic soup." Gu Xiyan probed cautiously.
Only then did Zhou Mu realize what Gu Xiyan meant: "What did you add to the soup?"
After drinking the cup of tonic soup, his whole body became extremely hot. It turned out that she had done it on purpose.
"It's just some powerful tonic that will be good for the young master's health." Gu Xiyan walked up to Zhou Mu as she spoke and wanted to take a look at his lower abdomen.
Which man can bear to be looked at by his beloved woman like this? Of course Zhou Mu is no exception: "I'm fine. You go back and rest early, I'm back."
This time, without waiting for Gu Xiyan to answer, he strode away and soon disappeared.
Gu Xiyan looked at his fleeing back and couldn't help but laugh.
The days are long, and no matter what he is hiding from her, she will always be able to find out the real reason.
After returning to Xiyuan, Hu Die immediately came forward to greet her and whispered to her: "Today Xiao Ya went to the Marquis Mansion to deliver food and vegetables, and was bumped into by Liu Shuzheng. Liu Shuzheng's eyes straightened when he saw Mrs. Xiao, it was clear that he had passed away.
I like Mr. Xiao."
Gu Xiyan became interested when she heard this: "What was Xiao Ya's reaction?"
"She was eager to leave the Xiao family, and she was lucky enough to be spotted by Liu Shuzheng. Naturally, she and Liu Shuzheng had their eyes set on each other. If we ask her to come to the Hou Mansion again tomorrow, this matter will definitely happen." Hu Die replied in a low voice.
"Don't be careless. Although Mrs. Li went to Zhuangzi, she has many informants in the Hou Mansion. Today's incident will definitely be noticed by others. You can watch more tomorrow to avoid being ruined. After all, Liu Shuzheng and Xiao Ya must make good things happen.
." Gu Xiyan didn't dare to be careless.
Hu Die also knew that this matter was important: "Don't worry, leave it to me, Xiao Ya will definitely be in charge."
Gu Xiyan smiled and said, "Fortunately, I have you to help me."
"What's so polite between you and me? We are good sisters." Hu Die said boldly.
Gu Xiyan stood in the yard and looked up at the huge building. It was like a stinging monster, but this time, she would not be swallowed by it again.
At the same time, the Qin Palace.
Zhou Xing finished his sword practice and was about to take a bath. Zhao De reported to Zhou Xing what happened in the Xuanchanghou Mansion.
"What do you think of this?" Zhou Xing casually drew his sword, and the wind of the sword struck him, making Zhao De jump.
Fortunately, the sword wind only scratched the cuff, cutting off a piece of fabric, and did not hurt his body, but Zhao De was still shocked and broke into a cold sweat.
"I want to ask you a question." Zhou Xing glanced at Zhao De.
Zhao De did not dare to look directly at Zhou Xing, "Old, I just feel strange. What a coincidence. Where Zhou Mu is, His Majesty is also there. Your Majesty seems to take special care of Zhou Mu. Originally, the Empress Dowager called Miss Gu to announce the appointment.
The Marquis wanted to vent his anger on the princess, but in the end because of His Majesty's presence, the princess was punished instead."
He glanced at Zhou Xing quietly, and when he saw that Zhou Xing did not answer, he continued: "The old slave has carefully checked that Zhou Mu grew up in the Fallen Immortal Temple since he was a child, and he is a close disciple of Master Mingjue. Your Majesty, he is
For the sake of Master Mingjue, I took special care of Zhou Mu."
"A monk who is about to become a monk suddenly becomes an official, and he is also a third-grade official. Do you think this matter is so simple? It is also an order given by my father himself. My father's regard for Zhou Mu is strange. I think it is not that simple.
"Zhou Xing threw the sword back into the scabbard with a graceful movement.
Zhao De served silently on the side, and Zhou Xing said again: "Do you think Yongjia was really tricked by Xi Yan?"
Zhao De did not expect Zhou Xinghui to suddenly mention Gu Xiyan.
Ever since he was banned, Zhou Xing didn't want to hear the name Gu Xiyan.
It's just that Gu Xiyan was a key figure in what happened in the Xuan Changhou Mansion, so he had to mention it, but His Highness didn't react at all at that time.
This time he took the initiative to mention Gu Xiyan. This was the first time His Highness had put Gu Xiyan down.
"I secretly checked and found that Miss Gu was present during the two days of the food festival. At first, it was Miss Gu and several Miss Liu who heated up the atmosphere. Later, it was His Royal Highness King Zhao and Princess Yongjia who raised the bidding price to a sky-high price after the official bidding.
Not to mention that His Royal Highness King Zhao is a food lover, without the stimulation of Miss Gu, Princess Yongjia would never have easily spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy a few dishes. Therefore, the old slave thought that it was probably the Princess who fell into Gu's trap.
The girl's trap." Zhao De expressed his true thoughts.
Zhou Xing looked at the palace lanterns blowing in the wind under the eaves of the corridor, and he didn't know what he thought of, and his face was a little gloomy.
"Did I make a mistake?" Zhou Xing was almost silent.
Zhao De didn't dare to answer the call.
He felt from the bottom of his heart that His Highness had really made a mistake. Gu Xiyan was not as cowardly and incompetent as he appeared on the surface, and His Highness was increasingly disappointed with Miss Gu, and later became displeased, and then broke off the engagement, all because he thought that Gu
Xi Yan cannot be His Highness’s help.
Now it seems that Jixianglou’s food festival is inextricably linked to Gu Xiyan.
"If you can find out these things, how could my father, as the king of a country, not know that it was Xi Yan who was responsible? Why did my father still turn towards Xi Yan even though he knew this? Don't you think this is weird?"
A gust of wind blew, and Zhou Xing shivered in coldness.
It was already late autumn. He had just finished sword practice and was sweating all over. The moment the night breeze hit him, he felt chilled in his heart.
"It is indeed very strange. After all, this matter alarmed the Queen Mother, and it also involved Princess Duanqing and Princess Yongjia. In the end, Princess Yongjia was punished. Your Majesty's partiality is obvious." Zhao De also felt that this matter did not make sense.<
/p>
"I'm afraid Zhou Mu's identity is not that simple. Maybe there are some secrets that we don't know about." Zhou Xing suddenly felt a little flustered.
Over the years, he has had smooth sailing and has never experienced any setbacks.
But he suffered a huge setback on Gu Xiyan, and Zhou Mu's appearance made him feel a strong sense of crisis deep in his heart.
He always felt that something was out of his control.
"Old slave, if you check carefully, you may gain something." Zhao De hurriedly responded.
"Check carefully." Zhou Xing waved his hand, signaling Zhao De to step back.
Zhou Xing stood under the verandah and stood quietly for a long time.
