Chapter 49 Death to face
Gu Xi rolled her eyes at him speechlessly. This person has delusions of persecution, but she can barely understand it.

People in the royal family are not normal.

"Qi Yue sent someone to stare at me, not knowing what he was planning, so I happened to use His Highness's hand to teach him a lesson.

My friends love me and support me. I can't let them work for nothing, I have to let them earn some money.

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

And the most important point, I really want to retire, and I don't want to be spoiled by His Highness.

In addition, I also want to borrow the name of His Highness to play a play of a fox pretending to be a tiger, and give the Hou Mansion an explanation for today's affairs. I don't want the people of the Hou Mansion to think that there is someone behind me, and there is still some use value.

Finally, I would like to ask Your Highness to do me a favor by forbidding the marriage between the Duke of Zhenguo and the Marquis of Zhongyi. I don't want the real daughter to get such a good marriage.

In this way, I have gained a lot, is Your Highness satisfied? "

Gu Xi listed her own advantages one by one, frankly, with many calculations, without hiding anything.

"Wonderful!" the eldest prince said, applauding Gu Xi, his eyes full of admiration,
"His Royal Highness likes to deal with smart people, and he prefers to deal with ruthless people. Okay, our cooperation has been reached."

Gu Xi got up immediately when he heard the words, "I came here in a hurry today, and I will send someone to deliver the soap cooperation plan someday."

The eldest prince nodded, and got up as well, intending to see Gu Xi off in person.

During the conversation just now, there were still some unfinished ideas and countless unanswered questions. The eldest prince still wanted to talk to Gu Xi.

"His Royal Highness stay here." Gu Xi ruthlessly refused.

"My Highness is not going to send you off, don't be too affectionate." The eldest prince said displeased.

Gu Xi,...

Royal people are all virtuous, and they want to save face.

Leaving the First Prince's Mansion, Gu Xi asked Uncle Yu to hurry back to the Hou's Mansion.

The concierge, Shuangxi, saw Gu Xi come back, and smiled in surprise, with a high-pitched voice, and cheerfully communicated to the mansion,

"Missy is back! Missy is back!"

Immediately, he quickly ran to Gu Xi, knelt down and kowtowed in salute. He kowtowed three times in a row, and each of them was very loud, and his face became like a flower with a smile.

"I have seen Missy! Missy has returned home. I haven't seen Missy these days, but I want to die!"

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

"Well, the mouth is quite sweet. A concierge should be so enthusiastic. Get up quickly."

After Gu Xi finished speaking, he casually took out a piece of broken silver and threw it to Shuangxi.

This is Gu Xi's usual habit. Put some broken silver in his purse, and the servants will reward them at any time if they do well.

The servants in the mansion liked her, and it was inseparable from her generous behavior.

Shuang likes to take it quickly, holds it in his hand, and happily shouts thanks, "Thank you, Miss, for the reward!"

Shuangxi thought happily, now that he was able to show off to others again, this time he was rewarded by the eldest lady.

"By the way, don't call me Miss in the future. The Miss in the mansion is the real daughter Gu Rong who just came back." Gu Xi said, "You can just call me Miss Gu."

She wants to strip off the relationship with the Hou Mansion bit by bit.

"……what?"

When Shuangxi heard this, she was stunned, her smile disappeared, and she replied in a helpless manner,
"Miss, that real daughter, everyone calls you Miss Er these days."

He has been calling Miss Eldest for many years, respect from the heart, suddenly shouting at a strange lady, it is really uncomfortable.

"It's inappropriate to call her the second lady. She is the blood of the Marquis Mansion. The title of eldest lady should be worthy of her. I will continue to occupy it. It is the dove occupying the magpie's nest. This is settled, and I will inform father and them later."

After Gu Xi finished speaking lazily, he issued orders as before,

"Shuangxi, go and tell the servants in the mansion that from today onwards, you must change the address you call me. If anyone calls me wrong, you will have to deduct money."

Shuangxi looked at Gu Xi again with great distress, and said reluctantly,
"Miss Gu, the servant knows, so let's go."

After speaking, Shuangxi ran away and went to work quickly.

Missy is too sensible, so distressing!

Gu Xi went back to the Hou's mansion, instead of going to his own Tinglan Garden, he went directly to the front hall, he treated himself as a guest.

She sat down in a relaxed posture. Just as she was about to drink tea, there were hurried and disorderly footsteps outside.

It's Zhongyi waiting for someone to arrive.

"Rebellious girl! You still know how to come back!" Zhongyi Hou glared at Gu Xi angrily as soon as he stepped into the front hall, pointing at her and yelling.

Gu Xi lazily raised her eyelids, and looked at Zhongyi Hou, her adoptive father.

Thanks to her enhanced eyesight, Gu Xi can clearly see every strand of Zhong Yihou's hair and the lines around his eyes from a distance of about ten meters. Naturally, he can also clearly see his anger, resentment, and fear. .

In fact, compared to Mrs. Hou, before having that nightmare, she had a deeper affection for Zhongyi Hou.

Because every time she solved a problem for him, he would look at her with pride and praise her, saying that she was his pride and the pride of the Hou family.

He always regretted that she was not a man, and he would not restrain her, allowing her to read the books, newspapers and memorials in his study.

Gu Xi regards these as Hou Zhongyi's love and love for her.

However, in the dream, when she was ridiculed by outsiders because of her background and was no longer the pride of the Hou Mansion, Hou Zhongyi completely changed her attitude towards her.

Seeing her, the first thing she said was disgust and blame, and she was often locked up in the ancestral hall, and the family law served her.

Especially in the dream, when she was almost lost by Gu Rong's design 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, let her help the fourth prince win the heir, and told her that she would be favored alone and become a noble concubine in the future.

After Gu Xi woke up, recalling this incident, she was shocked by his ruthlessness and shamelessness.

What's more, in the dream, she was whipped to death by him in the end.

Although it was a nightmare, Gu Xi knew that with his integrity, he could indeed do those things in the dream.

Therefore, she no longer has father-daughter feelings for him!
Zhongyi Hou looked at Gu Xi with an indifferent gaze of scrutiny, and stopped involuntarily, and even felt a chill on the back of his neck.

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

Zhongyi Hou strode up to Gu Xi, stretched out his hand to pull her up, and at the same time scolded loudly,
"A rebellious daughter! Seeing you as a father, you don't even stand up to greet her. It's too rude! When the divorce is over, you will definitely be locked up in the ancestral hall and the family law will serve you!"

When Gu Xi stretched out his hand, he lightly blocked it.

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