Wanfu, the Reborn Empress

Chapter 144
Tang Xin is the youngest daughter of the Tang Mansion, and also the daughter of the first wife. Over the years, she grew up beautiful and precious. It can be said that as much as Gu Yanxi is favored in the Gu Mansion, Tang Xin will be loved by others in the Tang Mansion. .

So it's not hard to imagine how nervous everyone in the Tang family must be when they knew she was injured, but thanks to Mrs. Tang's confinement of her freedom, it was difficult for people with evil intentions to get close to her.

But, I didn't expect that the villain is the most difficult to guard against. When a villain is thinking about it, it is really difficult to deal with; for example, right now, watching Li Rou as if nothing happened, quietly standing aside People who don't know really think she has a demure temperament, but Gu Yanxi clearly knows that these are all illusions displayed by Li Rou.

Sensing the look in Gu Yanxi's eyes, Li Rou naturally wouldn't let go of the opportunity. Princess Huayi didn't like her, and she didn't dare to approach this noble person. She naturally aimed at Gu Yanxi, and Gu Yanxi was still Gu Yanchao's Dear sister, Li Rou couldn't help but taste the loving gesture Gu Yanchao made to Gu Yanxi before leaving just now. If this gesture was done on her head, it would be great.

Li Rou was good at concealing and forbearing, she covered up the sudden emotion in the blink of an eye, approached Gu Yanxi, and performed the same courtesy: "It turns out that the third girl is here, what a coincidence."

After saying that, Li Rou looked towards Lu Yingying who was beside Gu Yanxi, with an unkind look in her eyes.

In the past, Li Rou was willing to greet Lu Yingying a few times, but when she thought that the reputation she had managed to maintain was ruined by Lu Yingying, she hated him in her heart; if there were not more important things now If she was asked to do it, the first person she would not let go of would be Lu Yingying.

So at the moment, even if she looked at Lu Yingying with a calm expression, Lu Yingying still read the hatred in Li Rou's eyes. It seems that she finally pissed off this white lotus completely, and this white lotus It can be regarded as not putting on airs in front of her.

Lu Yingying couldn't help laughing, she covered her mouth and smiled softly. She felt that Li Rou looked more pleasing to the eye, not as disgusting as before.

Gu Yanxi naturally heard Lu Yingying's low chuckle, and based on her understanding of Lu Si, she could guess why she was laughing.

In fact, if she didn't want to sing this play, Gu Yanxi would really like to laugh as much as Lu Si wanted to, and to do whatever she wanted; it's a pity that she still has a big play to sing at the moment, and she can't let Li Rou notice her doubts at this moment So, looking at Li Rou's hypocritical face, and thinking about the purpose of bringing Li Qian to the banquet, Gu Yanxi smiled sweetly at her.

Like an old friend reunited after a long absence, the words are full of intimacy: "It turns out that Miss Li is with Xinxin. It has been a few days since Miss Li came to Gu's house to say goodbye to her last time. Seeing her here today is a real pleasure." It is a very happy thing.”

When hearing Gu Yanxi's polite words, ordinary people would only think that she is familiar with Li Rou, but hearing Princess Huayi's ears at this moment made her very unhappy; it's just that Princess Huayi is not happy. It wasn't Gu Yanxi, but this Li Rou with ulterior motives.

Although she is in the palace, she knows a lot about what happened in the capital, especially about Gu Yanchao. She needs people's attention, and she can know news about Gu Yanchao from time to time.

So back then, when rumors spread that Li Rou was interested in Gu Yanchao, Princess Huayi noticed this ordinary-looking girl from the Li family who had an extraordinary reputation.

Who would have thought that when many noble ladies in Beijing agreed that Gu Yanchao would be her future son-in-law, someone would stand up and dare to rob her, and this woman who is not afraid of death is still an ugly monster?
Thinking of this, Princess Huayi couldn't help laughing, and before Li Rou and Gu Yanxi could say anything more, she was supported by the palace servants and walked over slowly, "This is Miss Li, it's true that seeing a hundred things is better than seeing it, Seeing Miss Li here today really surprised this princess. Although I have lived in the palace since childhood, I have heard of Miss Li's reputation; I heard that Miss Li is gentle and quiet, dignified and dignified, especially This appearance is as famous as your reputation, seeing you today, it really is."

Li Rou deliberately approached Gu Yanxi at this time because she wanted to avoid Princess Huayi, but what she didn't expect was that even if she avoided it, Princess Huayi was still not going to let her go; it seems that she really let this The princess saw it as a thorn in her side.

Moreover, Princess Huayi mentioned her appearance in the words just now, and the phrase "famous" is definitely not a compliment, but a naked humiliation.

Thinking of being ridiculed like this again in front of everyone, Li Rou stroked her cheek with trembling fingers, suppressed the rising resentment in her heart, and answered Princess Huayi's words, "Princess is ridiculous, who I don’t know, Your Royal Highness, you are the example of noble girls in Beijing, and I am far behind.”

Hearing Li Rou's praise, and seeing her slightly trembling fingers stimulated by her own words, Princess Huayi sneered coldly, obviously not taking Li Rou's good looks in her eyes.

She has lived in the palace since she was a child, no matter in terms of experience or experience, she naturally has much more than ordinary people. The first time she saw Li Rou, she didn't like this woman. , actually approached Gu Yanxi repeatedly, and became angry.

"Miss Li's words are wrong. In some respects, this princess is not as good as you, Miss Li." Princess Huayi walked up to Li Rou, turned her back to her, turned her head slightly, and glanced at her with disdain at the end of her eyes. She, "I didn't expect Miss Li to look gentle and quiet, but deep down she was passionate. In the past, the princess thought that the words she heard were gossip. When I saw Miss Li's attitude today, I knew that there is no wind without waves. Miss Li really took great pains for Gu Ergongzi, she ran to Gu's mansion one after another, so impatient, it really makes people look at her with admiration."

Princess Huayi's words were very obvious. Those few simple words were like a slap in the face, and she slapped Li Rou on the face without hesitation; The rumors that Li Rou admired Gu Yanchao were confirmed, and Li Rou's reputation, which was already in shambles, might be completely ruined.

Although Li Rou secretly admired Gu Yanchao, she never dared to steal someone from Princess Huayi in a blatant manner. Now that she heard her unkind words, she immediately panicked, and hurriedly saluted: "Did the princess misunderstand something? I'll go." The Gu family, just because of their friendship with the third girl, definitely not for the second son."

Gu Yanxi also stood up at this time and helped Li Rou 'explain', "Yes, princess, although Sister Li and I only met recently, we two hit it off right away, so naturally there are more whispers between sisters "For example, a few days ago, I helped my mother go out to check the shop, and I happened to meet Ms. Li in Linglongfang, so it can be seen that there is a lot of fate between me and Ms. Li."

"Coincidence? Fate?"

The sarcastic smile on Princess Huayi's face became deeper and deeper, and the eyes she looked at Li Rou also became more and more dissatisfied. She really underestimated this ugly monster. In order to get close to Gu Yanxi, she actually used all means. It seems that in her During this period of time in the palace, Li Rouzhen really did a lot of little tricks.

Thinking that a man like Gu Yanchao who was so gentle and bright would be targeted by a villain like Li Rou, Princess Huayi felt extremely disgusting, as if one of her favorite things was missed by a disgusting person, making her hate it. She couldn't just goug out the thing that dirty her eyes.

Listening to Gu Yanxi's 'explanation' words for her, Li Rou complained even more. Princess Huayi valued Gu Yanchao so much. Wouldn't Gu Yanxi say such words at this time to confirm her deliberate plans?To make her think that the reason she approached Gu Yanxi was to take down Gu Yanchao? !

Although it is true that she deliberately approached Gu Yanxi for Gu Yanchao, but this small thought must never be known by Princess Huayi at this time; if it is not certain that Gu Yanxi should not have any hostility towards her, Li Rou would almost doubt it Was what Gu Yanxi said just now intentional, in order to put her in the target of public criticism and make Princess Huayi dislike her even more.

Compared with Li Rou's desperation, Lu Si quietly watched the development of the situation with a look of watching the show from the beginning to the end.

Especially after hearing those few words from Gu Yanxi, which put Li Rou into an awkward situation, she couldn't help applauding Gu Yanxi's behavior in her heart.

This is the real master, just a few words in a few words, pushed Li Rou to a desperate situation, and made Princess Huayi completely jealous of her. See how this white lotus continues to pretend?
"Sister Li, so you really like brother Chao?" Tang Xin, who had been standing quietly by the side, suddenly asked at this moment, causing ripples in the stagnant air.

Facing Tang Xin's question, Li Rou opened her mouth, as if she wanted to explain something, but after seeing Princess Huayi's displeased expression, she hurriedly lowered her head.

She knows that if she denies it at this time, it may not help the matter. Now that the matter has developed to this point, she can only retreat to advance, put it to death and live later.

Li Rou cooperated with Tang Xin's words, and immediately showed a shy smile. She looked like a small white flower blooming in the rainy night, with tenacity in her fragility, and infinite longing in her heart, and said: "Xin'er, let me ask you, is there any woman in this world who can resist his charm for a man who is as outstanding as the second son, who is as brilliant as the orchid and jade tree? Yes, I secretly admire the second son. It is not that I am deep in the city, but that I am very clear that I am not worthy of the second son. The only person who is truly worthy of the second son is someone as noble and beautiful as a princess. "
