Chapter 30 Using Gu Xiyan as bait to lure him into the palace
Gu Xiyan was surprised: "It's enough for my sister to enter the palace. It's not appropriate for me to go."
She had already been divorced by Zhou Xing, so why did she still go to the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Banquet? Did Concubine Xian want to join forces with other noble ladies in the capital to watch her joke?
Concubine Xian was of the same mind as Zhou Xing's mother and son, and they looked down upon her from the bottom of their hearts. Before she was withdrawn from the engagement, she had never had the opportunity to enter the palace to see Concubine Xian.
The old lady also felt that it was inappropriate for Gu Xiyan to enter the palace. After all, she had just been divorced by King Qin. Entering the palace at this time would only make Wanqinghou Mansion a joke.
But she had to obey the orders given by Concubine Xian herself.
"Since it is the order of the Concubine Xian, you cannot disobey it. Grandma will take you two sisters into the palace together." The old lady did not give Gu Xiyan a chance to refuse.
Gu Xiyan felt unhappy, but had no choice but to accept it.
Little did she know that Zhou Mu had also received the news.
Emperor Chengde learned from Liu Qing that Gu Xiyan had entered the palace to attend the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet. The emperor didn't know why, but after receiving the news, he sent someone to deliver the news to Zhou Mu.
After Zhou Mu heard the news, a deep darkness shrouded the depths of his eyes.
Qi Zhiyuan has been serving Zhou Mu for a long time and is well aware of Zhou Mu's temper. The young master is not happy.
"It may be that the Concubine Xian wants to humiliate Miss Gu, or it may be the intention of His Highness King Qin. His Highness King Qin has not given up on Miss Gu yet, and maybe he wants to take this opportunity to destroy Miss Gu's innocence, so that Miss Gu has to talk to His Highness King Qin
." Qi Zhiyuan said while looking at Zhou Mu's expression.
A coldness flashed across Zhou Mu's eyes: "Is Zhou Xing worthy?!"
This was the first time Qi Zhiyuan heard his son say such harsh words, and he felt very strange.
The young master has always been an elegant and noble man who can move his hands but keeps his mouth shut, so Miss Gu is still a very special person to the young master?
"To avoid an accident, should the young master enter the palace that day?" Qi Zhiyuan's sentence is the key point.
After all, it is a good day for reunions during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Your Majesty misses the young master and wants him to enter the palace, but the young master does not like the place in the palace. That is why he uses Gu Xiyan as a bait to lure the young master into the palace.
"You go and arrange it." Zhou Mu thinks Qi Zhiyuan's method is feasible.
If he were outside the palace, he would be beyond his reach if anything happened to Gu Xiyan, but it was different when he was in the palace. He could always keep an eye on Gu Xiyan.
Qi Zhiyuan breathed a sigh of relief after achieving his goal, and immediately answered: "I will make arrangements right away."
Gu Xiyan got up early the next day. She remembered that she had an appointment with Dong Yong today, and she wanted to check where the grain store was, so she simply went out early.
She took a carriage and looked all the way through the city.
On the other side, Dong Yong was thinking about his date with Gu Xiyan, so he got off duty early in the morning. He didn't want to hear Xiaohu startled and said on the way to Jixiang Building: "Is Miss Gu going out so early?" There is still half an hour left before the agreed noon time.
Dong Yong curiously opened the curtain and looked around, and saw Gu Xiyan standing in front of a shop looking around.
Today she was wearing a lake blue dress with dark moire patterns, tied with a silk ribbon, which made her waist as slender as a spring willow. She was originally wearing a curtain hat, probably to watch the scenery, so she revealed her small face as big as a palm.
.
Looking from a distance, I can only feel that the beauty is as beautiful as jade, and the temperament is extremely outstanding.
Dong Yong watched intently for a while, not understanding what Gu Xiyan was doing.
"Sir, do you want to call Miss Gu?" Xiaohu asked.
"When you get into the carriage, first see what Miss Gu is going to do." Dong Yong became very curious about Gu Xiyan.
Although Da Jin did not restrict women from going out, and Gu Xiyan did have an appointment with him today, he still felt that Gu Xiyan was a bit mysterious, far from being as simple as he thought when they first met.
Gu Xiyan was unaware that she was being targeted by Dong Yong. She inspected the shops on the spot, not because of Feng Shui, but because she wanted to know which shops had enough space to be used as a granary without being too humid.
The place where the granary is placed needs to be dry, so the location is very important.
She walked and stopped all the way, and because she was beautiful, there were more and more pedestrians on the road. Many people were looking at her, and she realized that her behavior was a bit abrupt.
Finally, she got on the carriage, planning to change into men's clothes next time for a field trip. Anyway, the store was not in a hurry.
It was still early, so she went to Jixiang Tower. Unexpectedly, Wu Tong committed the old habit again and came out to greet her in person and kowtowed to her. She was really helpless and decided not to come to this place in the future, so as not to let people know that she was Jixiang.
The boss behind Lou.
Xu Yanqing also made an appointment with his colleagues to have lunch at Jixiang Tower today. When he arrived in front of Jixiang Tower, he saw Wu Tong, the shopkeeper of Jixiang Tower, groveling in front of a beautiful girl about sixteen years old.
The most interesting thing is that this girl is really good-looking. Her apricot eyes are like a circle of water, and the ends of her eyes are affectionate, as if they have hooks, and she is full of charm.
Her facial features are very delicate, every point is perfect, her jade-like skin is like frost and snow, and her shiny earlobes are shining through, making people want to pinch them to see if they are as soft as they imagined.<
/p>
His eyes swept from the girl's face to her slender waist, which seemed to be broken at the drop of a button. His eyes darkened and he suddenly felt extremely hot.
Xu Yanqing thought that he had seen countless beauties, and he was not a lecherous person. He dismissed many beauties who threw themselves into his arms, but seeing this beauty today made him shamefully lustful.
It's really weird.
Gu Xiyan also felt Xu Yanqing's wanton gaze. She glanced at him coldly, but when she saw Xu Yanqing's slightly familiar handsome face, she suddenly didn't know how to react.
Xu Yanqing saw the change in Gu Xiyan's expression clearly, and lightly raised the corners of her lips: "Do you recognize me, girl?"
Gu Xiyan coughed slightly, but she couldn't tell her that she recognized this as one of her potential candidates, and he was also Qi Anbo's third son, Xu Yanqing.
"I've heard of it." As Gu Xiyan spoke, she glanced at Wu Tong with a warning.
Wu Tong reacted immediately and hurriedly said to Xu Yanqing: "Master Xu, please."
"May I ask your name, please?" Xu Yanqing didn't want to miss the opportunity to get to know Gu Xiyan.
At this time, Dong Yong's voice suddenly sounded: "What a coincidence, Miss Gu came so early."
He had heard from his mother that Xu Yanqing was also one of Gu Xiyan's romantic partners. He had developed a strong interest in Gu Xiyan and did not want Xu Yanqing to ruin his good deeds.
"I have reserved a private room, Mr. Dong, please." Gu Xiyan led the way, skipping Xu Yanqing.
Dong Yong was about to follow, but Xu Yanqing suddenly pulled him back and asked in a low voice: "What is the origin of this Miss Gu?"
"You don't care what her background is, stay away from her." Dong Yong was too lazy to talk to his potential love rival.
He has known Xu Yanqing for so many years, but has he ever seen him take the initiative to inquire about a noble girl?
