Chapter 698
When the eldest princess heard Xia Houyong's words, her heart turned cold, but her face was very peaceful. She opened her eyes and looked at Xia Houyong calmly and said, "Is the master worrying about that boy?"

"What do you think? Do you think I shouldn't be making trouble?" Xia Houyong said coldly, "I was called a fake filial piety, but in fact I was harboring evil intentions and trying to murder my father. Didn't you hear all these words?" "So what if I hear it! That's just what the boy said! Why should the master be serious with him? What's more, the boy has been killed by the order of the Hou Ye, which proves that the Hou Ye is not serious about those words." My son also believed it. It's time for the master to calm down."

"Besides, the master has never done such a thing that is not tolerated by heaven and earth, and everything he does is worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth, so there is no need to take those dirty words to heart." The eldest princess said lightly.

"You said it was easy. Do you think it's that simple?"

The eldest princess raised her eyebrows, "Otherwise, how complicated can it be?"

"How complicated?" Hearing the princess' indifferent words, Xia Houyong mocked, "I think you are getting more and more confused now. You really don't even have any sense of crisis."

"The concubine doesn't know what the master is referring to?"

"I don't understand, how do I need to understand this! Didn't you all see it clearly? That boy was sent to my father by me, but he said those words in front of Gu Qingyuan. Tell me, Gu Qingyuan, she What would you think?"

"Didn't Gu Qingyuan say that? She didn't believe those words at all. She said that the boy was just talking nonsense. He wanted to provoke the relationship between the master and the marquis. He also wanted to make trouble. He deserves to die! Master, Gu Qingyuan still trusts you as the second uncle." The eldest princess said in a slow voice.

Of course, Xia Houyong heard it as the ultimate irony, "Shit! She will believe me? When did you become so naive? I have met Gu Qingyuan several times, and every time it ended in an unpleasant situation. Have you forgotten?"

Xia Houyong gritted his teeth, "As for Gu Qingyuan's disrespectful and disobedient attitude towards me, she said she believed it, but she would definitely take the opportunity to make trouble secretly, and she would never let go of this opportunity to slander me. I used to be angry with her for making things difficult for her! Just wait and see! Maybe one day there will be gossip about me in this house, and then it will spread outside. Outsiders will definitely say that I am a murderer rebellious son of the father."

"Tell me, by that time, I, Xia Houyong, will have no face to stay in this capital. I'm afraid I won't even have a foothold." Xia Houyong said with a tense expression, grinding his teeth, anxious, and annoyed.

After hearing this, the Eldest Young Master said in amazement, "Master, this is impossible! Gu Qingyuan probably wouldn't do this! She doesn't look like such a vicious person!"

"It's nothing like that, I think she is! Looking at her cold appearance, she is obviously a ruthless person. Don't forget, once, she sent her father to prison. Such a cold-blooded person Man, do you still expect her to be merciful to my second uncle with respect?"

The eldest princess heard the words, her expression was uncertain: "Master, then...then what do you think should be done now?"

"What do you think? Will you ask me? Don't you know what to think at this time?" Xia Houyong said violently.

"The concubine really can't think of any solution at the moment." The eldest princess frowned.

After hearing this, Xia Houyong took a deep breath, looked at the eldest princess and said in a deep voice, "You really can't think of it? Or don't you have the heart to think about it at all, you just want to see my bad luck!"

I don't know why, Xia Houyong just has this feeling!Although the current eldest princess still looks the same as before, Xia Houyong always feels that she is different.

"Master, you are thinking too much. We are husband and wife. If you are not good, what good will it do me." The eldest princess said in surprise.

After hearing this, Xia Houyong's doubts subsided a little, but it was true that if she was tainted by others and could no longer gain a foothold in the capital, she, as a wife, would not be much better off.

"It's good that you know, then think about it carefully! Don't let Gu Qingyuan take advantage of this life to bring it up." Xia Houyong said solemnly.

"Okay!" The eldest princess responded, and then said: "How about I send someone to secretly monitor Gu Qingyuan first, so that if there is any change in her, I will know immediately. That way I can stop her from causing trouble in time." .”

"What kind of solution is this? You can watch her for a while, but you can also watch her fail forever." Xia Houyong said dissatisfied.

"Then, what should the master say?"

Xia Houyong also had no clue in his mind, and couldn't think of any good countermeasures, but when he said it bluntly, he seemed just as incompetent!Afterwards, Xia Houyong just ordered coldly: "Don't always ask me, this is a matter of the backyard, you should think it over carefully first! Let me know if you think of a better way."

After Xia Houyong finished speaking, he turned and left.

The eldest princess looked at Xia Houyong's back, her eyes filled with a cold light like ice.

Su Momo came in from the outside, poured a cup of tea for the eldest princess considerately, and said softly: "Princess, drink some tea and calm down!"

The eldest princess took it, took a sip, and said lightly: "Did you hear everything?"

"Yes, this old servant has heard it all." Madam Su sighed, and at the same time she said worriedly: "Princess, will Gu Qingyuan really take the opportunity to spread rumors outside as the concubine said?"

"What do you think?"

"I don't think so, but I can't be absolutely sure."

"Don't worry! She won't do this, but I really hope she can."

Su Momo was a little confused when she heard this, "Princess, why is this?"

"If she did this just now, this palace can just use this as an excuse to say that she, Gu Qingyuan, is intolerant and wants to drive us out of the evil scheme of the Earl's Mansion."

Su Momo was stunned when she heard this, she looked at the eldest princess with admiration and said: "Now there is no proof of death, the princess' plan is very clever."

"It's not a clever plan, at most it's just to let Gu Qingyuan be fascinated for a few days! It's a pity that a cunning person like her would not use such a cheap method."

Su Momo also felt the same in her heart, "However, did the servant really say those words and was ordered to be beheaded by Lord Hou?"

The eldest princess sneered after hearing this, "Hmph! No matter how stupid that boy is, he wouldn't say those things in front of Lord Hou. In my opinion, this is just to get rid of the boy who was disloyal to Lord Hou, and by the way, give him Xia Houyong just gave us a warning!"

Su Momo's expression was uncertain when she heard this, "So, Gu Qingyuan has already suspected the princess and the son-in-law?"

"It's normal, she's never been a fool! Just wait and see! The Earl's Mansion is going to be lively soon." The eldest princess Mo Ke said.

After dinner, Yingyi appeared in front of Gu Qingyuan again.

"Senior Concubine, there is a result."

"how!"

"It's almost as predicted by the concubine Shizi. The emperor has issued an imperial decree, ordering the army to set off for the mausoleum immediately."

After hearing this, Gu Qingyuan let out a sigh of relief, and finally relaxed a little.

"That's good, that's good..."

"Yes, the master will definitely come back safely."

Gu Qingyuan nodded, "Yes, Xiahou Jueyi will definitely come back safely."

Just when everyone thought that everything was basically settled, four days later, a news came from Lingcheng that shocked, horrified and unbelievable everyone in Haoyue.

A news that was like a bolt from the blue to those who were looking forward to Xiahou Jueyi's return.

But to some it was a news of great joy.

"Concubine Shizi, master...something happened to him." Qi Si's expression was gray and silent, his voice was trembling, and his eyes were bloodshot.

"What's the matter?" Looking at Qi Si's expression, Gu Qingyuan's heart twitched uncontrollably, and his throat tightened.

"Master, he is serving!"

When Qisi said that, Gu Qingyuan's face suddenly turned pale.

"Concubine Shizi, the emperor has ordered you to enter the palace immediately to confirm the relics of Shizi Xiahou!" A man in black clothes with a dragon-shaped logo on his sleeve suddenly appeared in front of Gu Qingyuan, with an expressionless expression on his face.

Dragon guard!Relic!Xiahou Jueyi...
