After the delicate beauty salted fish, the sick and weak prince kicked the door to coax

Chapter 140 What a Beautiful Person

Hou Ye's face suddenly turned into a liver color, his neck became thick with anger, and his whole body trembled.

If this unfilial daughter dares to say that, he doesn't have to be the Marquis anymore!
She was clearly threatening him!
"It was my father's fault before, and I apologize to you because my father will not let you be a concubine." Hou Ye took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth.

"Oh, that's it." Gu Xi looked stunned, "Although you backtrack on your promises, you are not a son of man, and you are not worthy of being a father, but I still listen to you."

"..." Lord Hou.

This unfilial girl, who was very caring before, has become so disobedient now, her words are either stabbing or choking.

How dare you scold him in person now!
It really makes no sense!

Hou Ye wanted to beat her up angrily, but he thought that she was going to be a princess soon, and she was not his biological daughter after all, so he couldn't be violent, so he could only suppress his anger and rest his mind.

Hou Ye didn't want to make himself uncomfortable anymore, so he left Gu Xi after saying a few more words.

Lord Hou felt that Gu Xi was smart enough, so he should know how to choose what was best for her.
-
Royal Palace.

The queen mother almost stayed up all night because she was so excited and looking forward to seeing Gu Xi today.

After she got up, suppressing her excitement and urgency, after breakfast, she went to the Small Buddha Hall to pay respects to the Buddha as usual, which looked the same as usual.

However, only she knows how turbulent her heart is under the calm surface.

Finally, a servant came to report, saying that Gu Xi and Mrs. Hou were begging to see him outside the palace.

The Empress Dowager stabilized her mood and quickly asked someone to come in.

The palace gate was too far away, and it took two quarters of an hour before the queen mother finally saw Gu Xi and Mrs. Hou.

Gu Xi learned the rules well. He moved his lotus steps lightly while walking, kept his skirts still, and straightened his body. After entering the hall, he didn't look up and looked around.

"(The minister's wife) Gu Xi, the daughter of the people, pays homage to the empress dowager, and the empress is a thousand years old."

Madam Hou next to her also kowtowed nervously.

"Get up, give me your seat." The queen mother said softly, staring at Gu Xi who got up.

Although she couldn't see her face clearly because she lowered her head, the queen mother also felt that this girl had a good figure, good manners, good manners, and a better demeanor all over her body.

The exposed white chin makes people think about it, and they can't help but want to see what kind of beauty this is.

"Raise your head and let Aijia take a good look at it." The Queen Mother looked gentle, "You don't need to be so restrained."

"Yes, ma'am." Upon hearing this, Gu Xi raised her head and smiled at the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother was amazed in an instant, and felt that the girl's smile was like thousands of flowers blooming, which shocked people's minds.

What a beautiful person.

The queen mother continued to look at her carefully, and Gu Xi did not dodge, allowing the queen mother to look at her calmly.

The queen mother couldn't help but nodded secretly, her first impression of Gu Xi was very good, her expression became more and more gentle.

She didn't immediately talk about the fact that both the sixth prince and King An wanted to marry her as a concubine, let alone the fact that the Xie Mansion accepted her as a concubine, but smiled and chatted with her about the daily routine.

Ask her what she likes to do on weekdays, what she knows, what books she likes to read and so on.

Mrs. Hou has been ignored.

However, Mrs. Hou is also very self-aware, knowing that she is a foil, so she smiled and listened from the side, and didn't intervene to be annoying.

After all, the queen mother wanted to look like she was looking at her granddaughter-in-law, so she asked Gu Xi to perform a show of talent. Gu Xi didn't want to play the piano and paint, so she made tea for the queen mother.

The queen mother readily agreed that watching the beauty make tea is also a kind of enjoyment.

After Gu Xi finished her performance, the queen mother drank the tea she made and nodded with satisfaction, "The workmanship is good."

"Thank you for your compliment." Gu Xi smiled, and said to himself,

"Minnv's tea art is actually mediocre, thanks to the empress who doesn't dislike it, but Minnv feels very sorry.

The minnv heard that the empress loves to worship Buddha and like the Buddhist scriptures, so the minnv brought a roll of Buddhist scriptures, which was copied by the minnv herself, and wanted to present it to the empress. "

"Oh? Where are the Buddhist scriptures? Present them, and Ai's family will take a look." The queen mother said with interest.

Gu Xi handed the box she carried with her to Nanny Zhou, and she handed it to the Queen Mother.

When the queen mother opened the Buddhist scriptures, she first fell in love with the fonts inside. She asked in surprise,
"You copied this by yourself? No wonder even Liu Wenshu is willing to bow down. Your handwriting is very strong, and you are very popular. The Ai family likes it very much."

"It's as long as your mother likes it." Gu Xi seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, but then there was a little hesitation on his face, as if he couldn't speak.

"Whatever you want to say, just say it directly, the Ai family will not blame you." The queen mother said immediately.

"Madam, I have a merciless request, here is a volume of Buddhist scriptures for myself to read.

Minnv wants to personally enshrine this volume of Buddhist scriptures and the one dedicated to you in your Buddhist hall, to contaminate your blessings, and get back my copy from you after 49 days.

Minnv knows that this request is too high, but I don't know if it is allowed? "

"Why not! The Ai family already liked the Buddhist scriptures you copied, and felt that you are also a destined person. We can discuss Buddhism together later." The Queen Mother immediately agreed.

She realized that this was Gu Xi creating an opportunity for the two of them to be alone, and she wanted to send a message to herself.

The queen mother's heartbeat started to speed up with excitement, and she couldn't wait to go to the Buddhist hall with Gu Xi.

"Thank you, ma'am!" Gu Xi kowtowed to thank her.

Madam Hou gave Gu Xi a strange look.

Why didn't she know that Gu Xi liked Buddhist scriptures before, and she never saw her pay homage to the Buddha.

Every time she went to Qinglong Temple to burn incense, she was the least sincere, and even said something disrespectful to the Buddha.

But today...

Could it be that it was specially prepared to please the Empress Dowager?
Then there is no need to write two volumes of Buddhist scriptures and enshrine them in the Queen Mother's small Buddhist hall, right?
Mrs. Hou couldn't understand it.

"Then let's go now." The Empress Dowager stood up and said to Mrs. Hou again, telling her to sit here and wait.

Mrs. Hou quickly calmed down her messy thoughts, saluted the Queen Mother, and asked Gu Xi not to make the Queen Mother angry.

Before Gu Xi said anything, the queen mother said,

"Miss Gu is generous and understands etiquette. My wife doesn't have to worry about her bumping into Aijia, not to mention Aijia likes her very much."

When Madam Hou heard the words, she was surprised that the queen mother defended Gu Xi so much, so she had to salute to thank the queen mother for her kindness.

Then, Gu Xi supported the queen mother and walked to the small Buddhist hall. Along the way, the two of them were talking in a low voice, looking very intimate.

Nanny Zhou who was following them couldn't help but marvel, this girl Gu is really pleasing to the eye.

The queen mother was coaxed by her, and the smile on her face never stopped.

The Empress Dowager generally does not need anyone to serve her when she worships the Buddha. When the two of them are outside the small Buddhist hall, the Empress Dowager will naturally leave everyone outside the Buddhist hall and go in with Gu Xi alone.

Gu Xi came to the Buddha statue, knelt down and worshiped reverently.

As Mrs. Hou said, she did not believe in Buddhism before.
