Chapter 145 The Little Man

Upon hearing this, the Marquis's face changed from pale to red liver, shy and frightened.

Countless emotions were piled up on his chest, making him unable to breathe.

He also wanted to faint, so he didn't have to face Eunuch Wu's questioning or his mother's poisoning and fainting.

Mrs. Hou also found it difficult to speak of this question and was ashamed to answer it.

Even if the old lady finally gets rid of the poison, she will not be punished in the palace. However, this time the face of the Marquis' Mansion will be completely lost and will be laughed at by the nobles in the capital to death.

"Hmm? Didn't Miss Gu say that?" Eunuch Wu continued to ask when he saw that they did not answer.

"Xi'er said that." Mrs. Hou could only answer with a tough bullet.

"But we were really curious about how delicious the pastry given by the Queen Mother was, so we couldn't help but want to taste it..."

"Just the old lady ate it?" Eunuch Wu asked again.

"Before the others had time to eat, my father-in-law came." Mrs. Hou blushed and whispered.

If there was a crack in the ground at this time, she would have crawled in. Mrs. Hou had never felt so embarrassed.

"It seems that our family, no, the empress dowager saved your life. If she hadn't been worried and sent our family to come quickly, the Zhongyi Hou Mansion would not exist."

Eunuch Wu smiled in an unknown way, and said sarcastically.

"I thank the Empress Dowager for her protection. The Empress Dowager has a profound blessing, so we can all benefit from it."

Mrs. Hou immediately knelt down, pulled the dizzy Zhongyi Hou and Gu Rong kowtowed in the direction of the palace.

Eunuch Wu didn't bother with this issue anymore. After all, it was impossible for Gu Xi to bring back the poisonous pastry.

It’s really hard to tell who saves whom and who harms whom.

"Miss Gu is here? Our family will give her the reward and will return to the palace to report his life." Eunuch Wu asked again.

"My father-in-law sat down and had some tea and waited. He had sent someone to invite him." Mrs. Hou said quickly.

-

Gu Xi couldn't help but wonder when she heard the rewards coming from the palace. Not long after she came back, why did the Empress Dowager still chase him to give the rewards?

What happened again?!

However, her movable type printing technique is probably mixed with this pile of rewards.

Because she came back, she asked, no one gave her gifts, no special things happened, and nothing else appeared in her residence.

With doubts in mind, she quickly packed up and rushed to the front yard. But halfway through the way, another servant rushed over and told her in panic.

"Girl, the old lady ate the pastry you brought back and fainted from poison!"

“…” Gu Xi.

She was stunned for a moment, and then she was a little funny.

What is this?

An unexpected surprise?

There is no question of being too happy. She hasn't hated the old lady so much that she wants to poison her to death.

Gu Xi speeded up and rushed to the flower hall in the front yard. He met Eunuch Wu and others, as well as the insane Marquis and the Marquis and the Marquis.

"We have met Miss Gu in our family." When Eunuch Wu saw Gu Xi coming, he immediately stood up and took the initiative to greet Gu Xi, and was more polite and respectful to her than to Zhongyi Hou.

"You are polite, father-in-law." Gu Xi also greeted Eunuch Wu, looked at Mrs. Hou again, and asked as if he didn't know anything.

"Why is my mother's face so ugly? What happened?"

Mrs. Hou's expression was complicated, and even looked at Gu Xi with a hint of awe in her eyes, saying what happened.

She couldn't see through it. Do Gu Xi know that the pastry was poisonous?

If she knew, then she was so amazing. How could she be judged in the palace? She said such reasonable words so cleverly.

If she didn't know, then she was really lucky. With this matter, the Empress Dowager would become her backer, and she would still be a strong backer who would not fall for the time being.

Gu Xi showed a surprised look at the right time, "The pastry is actually poisonous? Fortunately, the Empress Dowager did not eat it.

But I haven’t said that this is an offering, something that cannot be eaten, and it is to be sent to the ancestral hall. Who tricked the grandmother into eating it?"

Mrs. Hou didn't speak immediately, she shook her head with a tense face.

"Xi'er misunderstood, no one deceived her, it's..."

"It was the eldest lady who suggested that she wanted to eat pastries. If she hadn't said it first, she wanted to taste it, the old lady wouldn't have eaten it!"

Hongmei, the maid next to the old lady, suddenly stood up, pointed at Gu Rong and said,

"It was all her who made her. She asked the old lady to eat it, but she didn't eat it herself..."

Aunt Gu, Gu Qianer and others who arrived at the back of their feet all looked at Gu Rong angrily when they heard Hongmei's words, wishing they could tear her away.

"Hongmei, shut up!" Mrs. Hou shouted sternly, and said with red eyes.

"Rong'er doesn't know that the pastry is poisonous. She is still young and has never seen the world since she was a child. She was curious about the meals in the palace and said that. She didn't want to poison her grandmother!"

Mrs. Hou would rather have a bad reputation for being greedy than let her have any stigma of poisoning her grandmother, even if it is rumored.

Otherwise, Rong'er would be really ruined in this life.

"I'm not trying to harm my grandmother, I don't. I don't know that the pastry is poisonous..." Gu Rong also had a pale face and shook her head in a hurry to deny it.

She really wanted to strangle the maid Hongmei to death. She said that she wanted to give her a charge of poisoning her grandmother.

She doesn't remember that she offended this maid, why did she harm her so much!

It's simply hateful!

When Gu Xi learned that it was Gu Rong who proposed to eat poisonous pastries, she almost couldn't help laughing.

In the dream, Gu Rong personally poisoned the old lady and poisoned the old lady. However, Gu Rong framed her and successfully framed her. She was also beaten fifty by Zhongyihou for this and was almost beaten to death.

Anyway, the dream is outrageous, and Gu Xi doesn't understand why she doesn't hide or escape or resist, so she concluded that there is also a problem with her mind in the dream.

No matter how dreams are, she said that now, Gu Rong used the poisonous pastry she brought to poison the old lady. Whether she intentionally or not, she could not escape responsibility this time.

She hasn't done anything yet, nor has she planned anything, but by chance, the system's heavy punch to her has been completed by most of Gu Rong's task.

After this incident, Gu Rong will be given a reputation for poisoning her grandmother. Even if her reputation is not that bad, she cannot escape her greed and stupidity.

As long as Gu Rong gets whipped, the task will be done!

And being whipped is simple. Gu Xi glanced at the lost Zhongyihou. As long as she instigated her, Zhongyihou would be happy to whip Gu Rong.

Even if it is a biological daughter, it will definitely not change the evil nature of the villain.

If something happens, he will only be timid, shirk responsibility, be incompetent and furious, and then hit the weak with a heavy blow.

"No matter whether you did it on purpose or not! Since you came back, the mansion will be uneasy, you are the broom star!

Now that you are implicated, my grandmother has been poisoned, and the Marquis’s face has been lost!
