Chapter 50 On the day we met, I took my sister’s place
"My slave is so happy." Qiushi smiled from ear to ear.
She knew that her girl was also very happy.
In Zaohui Hall, the old lady still couldn't understand why Wan Qinghou suddenly interfered with Gu Xiyan's marriage. Later, she simply went to Wan Qinghou to get an answer.
Marquis Wan Qing had no choice but to say vaguely: "As long as mother knows how great the emperor's kindness is, other sons can't talk about it."
The old lady's heart trembled.
Could it be that the emperor’s grace is His Majesty’s will? Yes, His Majesty is going to act as a matchmaker for Sister Xi recently. Is it because he doesn’t want Sister Xi to be confused with His Highness the King of Qin again?
If that is His Majesty's wish, then of course Sister Xi cannot be allowed to be with His Highness King Qin.
The next day the autumn air was crisp, cloudless, and the sun was particularly bright.
Zaohui Hall received the news from Qi Anbo's mansion early in the morning. It happened that several girls were at Zaohui Hall to pay their respects to the old lady.
When Liu Junyan first heard that Xu Yanqing was about to meet the girl from the Hou Mansion, Xu Yanqing's affectionate and charming eyes flashed before her eyes, as well as his charming and handsome face when he was about to smile or not, and her pretty face couldn't help but heat up.<
/p>
It is said that she is her father's legitimate daughter, and Xu Yanqing is not the heir apparent of the uncle's house, so she is not worthy of her status. But Xu Yanqing is now the sixth-rank head of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and she is still so young and talented.
If she marries such a man, it will be appropriate for her to be the royal wife in the future.
Not only did Liu Junyan mistakenly believe that the person Xu Yanqing wanted to see was her, but the old lady also had the same misunderstanding: "Xu San wants to ask Jun Yan to see her?"
Cigu was stunned for a moment before she remembered that she had not spoken clearly. When she saw Liu Junyan showing her little daughter's coquettish look, she hurriedly explained: "How can Mr. Xu be worthy of our three girls? The one he wants to see is the eldest girl." The blush on Liu Junyan's face quickly dissipated, and she looked at the silent Gu Xiyan aside in disbelief.
Gu Xiyan received the sharp look from Liu Junyan, and for a moment she didn't understand why Liu Junyan looked at her like this.
She also didn't expect that Xu Yanqing would bring up the matter of seeing her even though he knew her well. Is it necessary to bother with this?
"Is sister worthy of Mr. Xu?" Liu Huiyan, who was standing by, found an opportunity and sarcastically mocked Gu Xiyan.
The old lady didn't like Liu Huiyan's mean look, and instantly lowered her eyebrows: "Sister Hui, you are Sister Xi's sister. If Sister Xi can find a good marriage, it is her destiny."
Liu Junyan suddenly stood up and said: "Grandma, Jun Yan still has something to do, please leave first."
Without waiting for the old lady to answer, she took the lead and left Zaohui Hall.
Zijuan could see through her girl's thoughts at a glance. She knew long ago that the girl fell in love with Mr. Xu at first sight. If not, the girl had already decided to get married, how could she wait until now?
The girl just wanted to wait for Uncle Qi'an's house to propose marriage to her. How could she know that at the end, there was news that Young Master Xu wanted to see the eldest girl.
"I really can't tell that the girl who keeps silent is actually a biting dog!" Zijuan said sarcastically on behalf of Liu Junyan.
It happened that Gu Xiyan also came out of Zaohui Hall, and Zijuan's voice was loud, which clearly reached the ears of Gu Xiyan's master and servant.
When Chunhua heard this, she became angry and said angrily: "Who is the dog scolding?"
"Scold you!" Zijuan answered quickly, only to realize that she had been fooled.
Being defeated by Chunhua, her face turned green and red.
Liu Junyan looked Gu Xiyan up and down with discriminating eyes. She had to admit that Gu Xiyan was really good-looking. She just didn't know how someone as wild and uninhibited as Xu Yanqing would want to look at Gu Xiyan. Could it be
Just because Gu Xiyan is good-looking?
"Sister, have you met Young Master Xu?" Liu Junyan looked aloof as usual.
"We met in the palace during the Mid-Autumn Festival." Gu Xiyan thought about it carefully and guessed that Liu Junyan's misbehavior had something to do with Xu Yanqing.
"Really?" Liu Junyan clenched her fists.
She is very self-reliant and does not like to enter the palace to compete for beauty. She did not enter the palace on the Mid-Autumn Festival. If she knew that Xu Yanqing would enter the palace, she would definitely change her mind.
Gu Xiyan did not want to continue discussing this topic and was about to leave when Liu Junyan suddenly said to her: "My mother has always treated my sister well, what do you think my sister is?"
Gu Xiyan looked back at Liu Junyan: "What does sister want to say?"
"If it hadn't been for my mother, you would have been kicked out of the Marquis Mansion. Mother was kind to you, is this how you repaid your kindness? Do you know that I have a crush on Young Master Xu, and that's why you want to snatch him away from me?" Liu
Jun Yan's cold gaze was like a knife scratching Gu Xiyan's face.
This was the first time that Gu Xiyan saw Liu Junyan acting so glum.
Liu Junyan has always looked down on her, but has she ever been so sharp?
"It seems that my sister should go out and walk more. Don't be afraid to tell her that your majesty has prepared a list of friends for me, including many adults. If my sister doesn't believe it, you can ask other people to ask. This matter is not
What a secret." Gu Xiyan always had a gentle attitude.
Hearing this, Liu Junyan's face changed slightly.
No matter how bold Gu Xiyan is, she cannot use His Majesty as a raft, so this must be true.
"Whether His Majesty is acting as a matchmaker or not, you can't take away the person I like. My mother has taken care of you all these years, and it's time for you to repay your mother's kindness. I have thought about it. On the day we meet, I will go to see Mr. Xu San on behalf of my sister!
Liu Junyan became anxious and said to Gu Xiyan.
Gu Xiyan was a little surprised that Liu Junyan would say these words. After pondering for a moment, she chose to agree: "Sister, I will look after you on my behalf. I agree to this, but what the outcome of my sister's final meeting with Mr. Xu is not mine.
Control."
When it comes to love, you don’t just have to like it, the other person will fall in love with you.
She is willing to give in, not because she can be bullied, but because she has no romantic feelings for Xu Yanqing, and it is very easy for her to give up on Xu Yanqing.
Watching Gu Xiyan's leaving figure, Liu Junyan clenched her fists. She must make Xu Yanqing happy and marry Xu Yanqing. Only in this way can she wash away the humiliation Gu Xiyan had done to her today.<
/p>
Gu Xiyan didn't expect that after she gave in, Liu Junyan still regarded her as an enemy.
She went to the small kitchen to make some snacks and wanted to give them to Zhou Mu to try and thank him for helping her get rid of Zhou Xing.
After leaving the Hou Mansion, she went to the next door a little nervously.
The gatekeeper was a handsome young man named Cai Yu. As soon as he saw her, he immediately came forward and said, "Miss Gu, please come in!"
Gu Xiyan knew Cai Yu. Even though he looked thin, his skills were unfathomable and he was one of Zhou Mu's personal guards.
"I made some pastries and brought them to the young master." Gu Xiyan explained her purpose.
Cai Yu brought Gu Xiyan to the living room, and then Nanny Yin greeted him, while Qi Zhiyuan went to the Zen room to report.
Zhou Mu was meditating when he saw Qi Zhiyuan coming again with a smile on his face: "What's wrong?"
