Chapter 49

: Death to Face

Author: Moon Earth Moon Earth

: Death to Face

Gu Xi rolled her eyes speechlessly at him. This person had paranoia for being killed, but she could barely understand.

There is no normal person in the royal family.

"Qi Yue sent someone to stare at me, I don't know what I planned, so I happened to teach him some lessons with His Highness.

My friends love me and support me. I can’t let them work in vain, but I have to let them earn some money.

The soap business is the only one, and the profit is too great that I can't afford it myself. I just need a backer to protect him. Your Highness is very suitable.

The most important point is that I really want to break off the engagement and don’t want to be ruined by Your Highness.

In addition, I also want to use His Highness to play a role in pretending to be a tiger's power, and give an explanation to the Marquis' Mansion for what is happening today. I don't want the people in the Marquis' Mansion to think that there is someone behind me, and it is of some use value.

Finally, I want Your Highness to help you, forbid the Duke of Zhenguo from marrying the Duke of Zhongyi's Mansion. I don't want a real daughter to get this good marriage.

In this way, what I have gained is not small, is Your Highness satisfied?"

Gu Xi listed his own benefits one by one, and was open and honest, and had many plans without hiding them.

"Excellent!" said the eldest prince, applauding Gu Xi, full of praise.

"I like to deal with smart people, and I like to deal with cruel people. Okay, our cooperation will be achieved."

Gu Xi immediately stood up and said, "I am here in a hurry today. I will send someone to send soap cooperation plan another day."

The eldest prince nodded and stood up, actually trying to send Gu Xi away in person.

After a conversation just now, some of my feelings were still unfinished, and countless doubts were unsolved. The eldest prince still wanted to talk to Gu Xi.

"Your Highness stayed." Gu Xi refused mercilessly.

"I am not going to give you a gift, don't be too sentimental." The eldest prince said unhappy.

Gu Xi,...

The royal family is all in one's own virtue and wants to save face.

-

After leaving the eldest prince's mansion, Gu Xi asked Uncle Yu to rush back to the Marquis' mansion with a quick horse.

The concierge Shuangxi saw Gu Xi coming back, and was filled with a smile on his face in surprise, with a loud voice, and happily circulated into the mansion.

"The eldest lady is back! The eldest lady is back!"

Then, he quickly ran to Gu Xi, knelt down and kowtowed, kowtowed three times in a row, and they were all very loud, and his face turned into a flower.

"I have met the eldest lady! The eldest lady has returned home. I haven't seen the eldest lady these days, but I want to die!"

Gu Xi was a little surprised by his overly enthusiastic and flattering appearance.

"Well, my mouth is quite sweet. You should be so enthusiastic when you are a concierge. Get up quickly."

After Gu Xi said that, he took out a piece of silver and threw it to Shuangxi.

This is Gu Xi's usual habit. She has some silver in her purse and can enjoy the best things done by the servants.

The servants in the mansion liked her, and they were inseparable from her generous behavior.

Shuang liked it quickly, held it in his hand, and said happily, "Thank you Miss!"

Shuangxi thought happily that he could show off to others again, and now he can get the bestowal of the eldest lady.

"By the way, don't call me a lady from now on. The lady in the mansion is Gu Rong, the real daughter who just came back." Gu Xi said, "Just call me Miss Gu."

She wanted to strip away her relationship with the Hou Mansion bit by bit.

"……ah?"

Shuangxi was stunned when she heard this, her smile disappeared, and she replied helplessly,

"Miss, that real daughter, everyone has called Miss Second these days."

He had been calling the eldest lady for many years, and he had a sincere respect, but suddenly shouted at a strange lady. It was really uncomfortable.

"It is not appropriate to call Miss II. It is the blood of the Hou Mansion. The title of Miss should be worthy of her. I will continue to occupy it, and it is the magpie's nest. This matter is decided, and I will tell my father and others later."

Gu Xi finished speaking lazily, and issued orders like before.

"Shuangxi, go and tell the servants in the mansion that from today, they will change their name to me. If anyone calls me wrong, they will be deducted."

Shuangxi looked at Gu Xi with great distress and called him reluctantly.

"Miss Gu, I know, let's go now."

After saying that, Shuangxi ran away and went to do business in a quick manner.

The young lady is so sensible and so heartbreaking!

-

Gu Xi returned to the Marquis' Mansion and did not go to his Tinglan Garden, but went directly to the front hall. This was to treat himself as a guest.

She sat down relaxedly, and just as she was about to pick up the tea and drink it, the sound of rapid and messy footsteps came from outside.

It was Zhongyi Hou who was waiting for others to arrive.

"Neon girl! You still know how to come back!" As soon as Zhongyi Hou stepped into the front hall, he glared at Gu Xi, pointed at her and scolded him.

Gu Xi lazily lifted her eyelids and looked at Zhongyihou, her adoptive father.

Thanks to her increased eyesight, Gu Xi could clearly see every hair and the lines in the corners of Zhongyi Hou's eyes, and naturally he could see his anger, resentment, and panic clearly.

In fact, compared to Mrs. Hou, she had a deeper relationship with Zhongyihou before having that nightmare.

Because every time she solves his problem, he will look at her with pride, praise her, saying that she is his pride and the pride of the Hou Mansion.

He always regrets that she is not a man, nor will he restrain her, and allows her to read the books, newspapers and memorials in his study.

Gu Xi regards these as Zhongyihou’s love and respect for her.

However, in the dream, when she was laughed at by people outside because of her origin and was no longer the pride of the Hou's Mansion, Zhongyi Hou completely changed her face to her.

When I saw her, I felt disgusted and blamed her, and often kept her in the ancestral hall and served her family law.

Especially when she was almost lost in her dream by Gu Rong and had to become the fourth prince's concubine, he didn't care whether she was framed or not, but instead showed ecstasy.

He asked her to win over the fourth prince, ask her to help the fourth prince compete for the throne, draw cakes for her and say that she would be favored alone and become a concubine in the future.

When Gu Xi woke up, when he recalled this, he was shocked by his ruthlessness and shamelessness.

What's more, in the dream, she was finally beaten to death by him with a whip.

Although it was a nightmare, Gu Xi knew that with the character of loyalty and righteousness, he could indeed do the things in his dreams.

So, she never had any father-daughter love for him again!

The Hou Zhongyi met Gu Xi with a scrutinized look and couldn't help but stop, and even a cool feeling arose from the back of his neck.

But soon he came to his senses and was even more angry by the strangeness just now.

Zhongyi Hou walked up to Gu Xi with great strides, stretched out his hand to pull her up, and shouted loudly,

"Dangerous girl! When you see that you are a father, you don't get up to greet him. It's so unruly! When the divorce is over, you will definitely be kept in the ancestral hall and serve the family law!"

Gu Xi gently blocked his hand as he reached over.

Zhongyihou felt that his hand touched the iron wall, and he quickly shrank back in pain, and his feet staggered back two steps.
