Chapter 16: Face slap mission

Even though Ning Wang Conghui was extraordinary, he couldn't understand why she suddenly mentioned her slap.

"How is it so amazing?" Ning Wang asked patiently.

"Just... nothing, I probably got it wrong." Gu Xi came to her senses and waved her hand quickly.

This matter cannot be explained by the system, so Gu Xi can only vaguely tell me.

She also realized that the system said the slap in the face, and the slap she thought was not the same as the same thing as the slap she wanted.

Moreover, the system also emphasized that in order to stimulate her enthusiasm, some rewards have been issued and allowed her to explore on her own.

Gu Xi couldn't help but check it around, wanting to see where the reward was placed, but he couldn't find it for a while, and explained to Ning Wang,

"I just thought that I seemed to have lost a bottle of medicine and needed to look for it."

Ning Wang naturally didn't believe the excuse she said, but he didn't ask, swallowed the bitter soup, handed her the medicine bowl, and thanked her gently.

But immediately afterwards, he put his arm on the bedding and suddenly he ran into a small hard object, touching it was a small porcelain bottle.

Ning Wang, “…”

King Ning took out the small bottle from the quilt, and said in a faint tone, "Are you looking for it?"

Gu Xi got up from the chair again in shock, his voice was astringent and weak.

"Yes, yes, I said why can't I find it? It must have fallen on the bed when I applied medicine to the prince yesterday."

This is the system of killing!

How could it hide the medicine bottle in Ning Wang’s quilt!

It would be better to put it under her butt!

Such a strange situation, how could a person as wise and keen as King Ning, not doubt it!

Gu Xi once again suspected that the real master of this system was actually King Ning, she was just a tool person to be used.

"Oh? I fell yesterday. Then you keep it and pay attention next time."

King Ning handed it to her and said meaningfully.

Although he couldn't see it, King Ning was sure that the little bottle was not on his bed before, but he didn't notice when it came to his bed.

It seems to appear suddenly.

Very strange.

Such a mysterious and mysterious way, and it is even more powerful than his master.

Could she be a native of the Xuanmen?!

Ning Wang found that the more he got along with her, the more he could not see through her.

When Gu Xi heard his tone, he knew that he didn't believe it. He gritted the bullet and took the medicine bottle, "Sorry, I'm disturbing the prince."

He simply didn't ask, and Gu Xi was relieved and chose to pretend to be stupid.

Otherwise, she really didn't know how to make up to make Ning Wang believe it.

"Not hindrance, it should be that you forgot when you saw that I was too upset." King Ning smiled and joked about her.

"Ahem, the prince was joking, and he was not upset. He was just a little worried about being discovered by someone, "Gu Xi smiled awkwardly.

The first time I felt that King Ning’s gentleness and elegance was the appearance, and his personality was actually a bit ill-bellied.

Ning Wang smiled, thinking it was fun to tease her, but unfortunately she couldn't see her expression, otherwise it would be more interesting.

Gu Xi took the small medicine bottle, squeezed it tightly in shame, and said goodbye to King Ning, "The prince is still weak and wants to have a good rest. I won't bother here."

Ning Wang pursed his lips, responded, and let her go.

He really wanted to know Gu Xi's secret.

But King Ning knew very well that this was not the time to investigate and force. If you ask too much, it would deepen Gu Xi's defense against him.

This is not conducive to his plan to keep her by his side.

When she was willing to stay by her side, it would not be that important whether she knew the secrets on her, but she had already used them for him.

-

After leaving the room, Gu Xi couldn't wait to re-release the system, check the face slap task, and asked bluntly if the system was not a slap in the face.

[It's terrible to be uneducated. Of course, it's not that you slapped her directly in the face, it's that you embarrassed her]

The system finally knew what the problem was. It turned out that Gu Xi had a wrong understanding.

It suddenly jumped up and down, educating Gu Xi not to be a fool, to read more, learn more, and be a talented woman.

As the number one talented woman in the capital, Gu Xi, "..."

Even the Grand Tutor of the dynasty praised her for her writings and even praised her for being the top scholar, but unfortunately she was a daughter.

This is the first time she was scolded for being a fool, and she felt it was a little new.

Gu Xi thought of the messy words used when the system issued the task, and rubbed her brows carelessly.

She didn't argue with it about this little thing, and only warned herself to ask clearly next time.

After knowing that this slap in the face was not a slap directly, but a shame, Gu Xi completely breathed a sigh of relief and thought it was simple.

What Gu Xi is curious about now is that when she did nothing, she felt embarrassed when she actually did what Gu Rong did?!

Moreover, the system will make her embarrassed and judge her, which is really strange.

Gu Xi thought for a moment and asked Chunzhi and the others to prepare the carriage. She wanted to go back to the city.

-

Just talking about Gu Rong, she is very depressed now!

The few days after she arrived at the Marquis' Mansion, she found that from the master to the slave, everyone praised Gu Xi, the fake daughter.

Especially the servants in the mansion, even if they know that Gu Xi is not from the blood of the Marquis’ Mansion, they are respectful when they mention her without any slight contempt.

After enduring for a few days, she only tried to win over Qian’s mother who was in charge of the kitchen today, but she deliberately put down her posture and bribery, which was useless!

Qian's mother politely rejected the golden hairpin she gave, and she didn't give her any love value!

She sent Qian's mother away, but she was still unwilling to accept it. She found Manager Li, who was managing the Hou Mansion's property, and wanted to win him over.

But still not!

Manager Li seemed respectful to her, but in fact he liked her at all. He even opened his mouth and shut up his mouth, so he just said that he was Gu Xi's life and Gu Xi's ghost when he died.

Gu Rong felt that her face was swollen.

In just a few days, Gu Rong deeply felt that the Marquis' Mansion had been run by Gu Xi like an iron barrel.

This made her difficult to understand. Gu Xi is not the legitimate lady of the Marquis' Mansion, which means she is not the serious master of the Marquis' Mansion. These slaves are the most inclined to the point of being in power, so why should she be respected?

Later, Gu Rong got a vague answer from her personal maid Jade.

It turned out that since three years ago, Gu Xi had helped Mrs. Hou’s housekeeper, and under her management, the treatment of the people under the Hou’s house has improved a lot.

The money has increased more than doubled, and there have been more benefits such as clothing and rewards in hand.

He even had the opportunity to go out of the mansion to become a manager in the Hou Mansion outside.

Before her life experience was exposed, Gu Xi was already the actual housekeeper of the Hou Mansion. All the servants in the mansion respected and loved her, and liked to do things under her hands.

If Gu Xi left, it might mean returning to the past, and these will not be there anymore, so naturally the slaves will not be happy.

After learning that this is the reason, Gu Rong became more and more aware that Gu Xi, a fake daughter, was not simple.

This also gave Gu Rong a deep sense of crisis!
