She wanted to cry, not because of being reprimanded by the lady, but because of the lady's explanation.

Although the young lady is a queen empress with unpredictable sky power, she is still the eldest lady who treats them very well.

"Wipe your tears and go to the apse to rest." Gu Xi said gently to Qiu Zhi, "Don't let outsiders see the joke."

A word of outsider made Qiuzhi feel like crying again, and he was completely relieved. The empress should not be kidnapped by Zhongyihou with family affection.

Qiu Zhi wiped away her tears and went back to the apse. Soon, Hou Zhongyi came in from the outside.

"I pay my respects to the empress empress, my empress is a thousand years old." Zhongyi Hou suppressed all kinds of thoughts in his heart and kowtowed respectfully.

"Get up." Gu Xi said lightly, "What are you asking for when you come to see me?"

"Weichen begs the empress to save my wife for the sake of the past affection and Song'er's face.

She became more and more ill, and she also invited the genius doctor of Yaowanggu to see her, but they couldn't do anything, and said that the time of my wife might be numbered! "

Hou Zhongyi was talking, his eyes were red and tears were falling, he seemed really sad because he was worried about his wife's condition.

Gu Xi watched coldly, without any disturbance.

Loyal and loyal to this person, ruthless, selfish, mercenary, if his life and status were at risk, he would even abandon his children and old mother, let alone his wife.

He came here this time, probably because his wife was seriously ill, and wanted to arouse his past affection, so as to seek some benefits from her.

"Madam was in good health before, why did she become seriously ill suddenly? It's only been more than a month, and she is even going to die?"

Gu Xi's voice was a little cold, and he looked at Zhong Yihou with serious scrutiny.

Zhongyihou couldn't help shivering, fear grew in his heart, he knelt down subconsciously, begging for mercy,
"Niang Niang, I'm guilty of this matter. I know that she is depressed and has nightmares again and again, but I don't calm down, which makes my wife's sanity worse and worse. Recently, I woke up from nightmares every night, screaming in fear. During the day It’s also hard to eat, and just like that, people will be ruined.”

When Gu Xi heard this, her expression was complicated, and she said, "Madam, is this because of knowing about Gu Rong?"

"Your Majesty is wise!" Hou Zhongyi nodded hurriedly, with a little fear in his expression,
"Wei Chen never expected that such a ghost would come to his side, Wei Chen was also very scared, and my wife even fell ill from fright."

Gu Xi was silent.

Song'er did mention it to her, saying that she told her some truths to prevent her mother from being sad because of Gu Rong.

but……

Looking at it now, I'm afraid it was self-defeating, and Mrs. Hou couldn't accept that her own daughter was possessed by a lonely ghost, and she had been intimate with this ghost for a long time.

Underneath Zhongyi Hou's expression lifted, the fear on his face dissipated a little, full of worship and reverence,
"However, when the minister knows that the empress is a goddess who has extraordinary means, the minister will not be afraid. This kind of female ghost will definitely be eliminated by the empress, and she has no chance to harm anyone!"

Gu Xi was silent again.

He was even more disgusted by Hou Zhongyi's flattery.

After knowing the whole story, Gu Xi was too lazy to waste time with him, so he recruited a eunuch, gave him a Peiyuan pill and a peach wood sword, and confessed,
"You and Zhongyi Hou went back to Hou's mansion, fed this medicine to Madam Hou, and then gave her this peach wood sword, saying that this sword can ward off evil spirits and protect her, and finally tell Madam that Ben Gong will visit her, and hope she is well stand up."

"Yes, ma'am." The eunuch respectfully responded.

"Thank you, Madam, for your kindness!" Hou Zhongyi hurriedly kowtowed, shouting loudly with red eyes, with a look of gratitude.
