Wanfu, the Reborn Empress

Chapter 167 Change of Mind

Gu Yanwen's painful and hasty cries sounded like strings of a piano, piercing and shocking, resounding in front of the royal manor.

No one expected how this good-looking person suddenly became such a description, his face was distorted, his face was full of pain, like a madman, he pointed at the slave who was kneeling on the ground and cursed, while tearing himself painfully the clothes you wear.

"You lowly servant girl, how dare you harm me! You, you..."

The servant girl who was kneeling on the ground had been frightened by Gu Yanwen's appearance for a long time, her face was full of frightened tears, she kept shaking her head, and explained: "I'm not a slave girl, I'm not a slave girl; big girl, this slave girl is yours!" , listened to your orders and put the things on the third girl, even if the slaves have the guts, they would not dare to harm you!"

As soon as the words fell, the maid immediately realized what she had just said, quickly covered her mouth, opened her eyes and looked at Gu Yanxi in horror, but at this moment, it was too late for her to do anything.

Gu Yanwen also realized what the servant said, and while frantically scratching her itchy body through her clothes, she looked at Gu Yanxi who was smiling but not smiling. At this moment, she suddenly realized what Gu Yanxi said just now What means.

It turned out that this was what she meant by 'revealing the truth'; it turned out that she knew that she was going to harm her, but her plan was so careful, there was no reason for Gu Yanxi to notice it, unless there was a villain around her who betrayed her.

Thinking of this, Gu Yanwen glared hard at Xuexu who was following her, and she didn't know where the strength came from, she kicked on Xuexu's push, and shouted loudly: "Bitch! How dare you betray me?! "

Xuexu was kicked to the ground by Gu Yanwen's unreserved kicks, the pain in her legs was piercing, and her face was white in an instant, but she was not in a hurry to refute, but Kneeling on the ground, bowed his head in silence for a long time.

Seeing this scene, Gu Yanwen glared at Gu Yanxi again, thousands of words were crowded in her eyes, that resentment really wished it could turn into a flame and burn Gu Yanxi to ashes.

Compared to Gu Yanwen's extreme gaffe, Gu Yanxi remained calm and composed from the beginning to the end. Seeing the onlookers gather around, they beckoned, and the two women who were waiting by her side quickly stepped forward, One left and one right picked up Gu Yanwen, and dragged her towards the carriage.

Gu Yanwen still wanted to struggle, but right now she couldn't even take care of herself because of the itching powder on her body, so how could she have the energy to struggle and save herself?

So, after struggling twice, she couldn't stand up to the two strong women after all, so she could only howl and scream at the same time. She must have been pulled into the carriage and taken away in a hurry.

After Gu Yanwen was taken away, someone came up and asked Gu Yanxi cautiously: "Third girl, what happened to this big girl? How strange is it that she looked like just now?!"

Seeing the eyes of everyone watching a play, although Gu Yanxi also hated Gu Yanwen in his heart, he had to save her at this time, because Gu Yanwen was a girl of the Gu family no matter what, she was shameless, the face of the Gu family But it cannot be lost.

"I made you laugh, my sisters. In fact, my eldest sister has been suffering from illnesses for a long time, and she often went crazy. Just now, her illness happened again, which made the sisters see the joke; I can see clearly that everyone sees it in the eldest sister's body. For the sake of being seriously ill and very pitiful, don't spread the news of what happened today; here, Jiaojiao thanked everyone in advance."

After saying that, Gu Yanxi bowed and saluted with a graceful attitude.

Hearing what Gu Yanxi said, everyone looked at each other, and they saw suspicion in each other's eyes.

Gu Yanwen, as the eldest girl of the Gu family, often wanders among the noble girls. Whether she has a secret illness or not, everyone knows it well. Thinking of the words that the maid who was kneeling on the ground said just now , It is really intriguing; obviously, it is very likely that the two sisters had another internal strife, and in the end Gu Yanwen ended in defeat. Let the Gu family not be too ashamed.

If ordinary people say this, many of the noble ladies present may not be willing to buy her face, but the problem is that the person who speaks is Gu Yanxi, the third girl of the Gu family; Even if some people have already guessed that there must be something strange in it, they still wisely choose to follow Gu Yanxi's words and help out haha.

"It turns out that the eldest girl has an old illness. No wonder the eldest girl's face was so ugly just now. Third girl, please greet the eldest girl for us and ask her to take care of her health. We will not disturb the third girl when she returns home."

"That's right, third girl, the eldest girl's carriage has already left, so hurry up and follow her. Just now the eldest girl looked very bad, but at this time, third girl needs to step forward to help take care of her."

Listening to the words of these clever girls, a smile appeared on Gu Yanxi's face: "Jiaojiao will always remember the concern of all sisters, so here, I will take a step ahead."

After Gu Yanxi saluted again, she brought Gu Yanling with a frightened look on her face and was about to leave; but when she stepped into the carriage, she heard someone calling her from behind, and when she turned her head, it was Lu Yingying.

Just now, Lu Yingying had returned to her carriage, and turned back when she heard the movement from Gu Yanxi's side. At this time, she looked at Gu Yanxi again with a serious expression: "What's going on? How did I hear that you are here? Something went wrong again?"

Gu Yanxi smiled wryly: "Yingying, today I really showed you a joke again and again, it's okay, you don't have to worry, it's my big sister who jumped out to find me again, it's not fun."

"Then how are you doing?"

Gu Yanxi smiled, "Look at me, do I look like the one who had an accident?" As she said that, she glanced at the little maid who was being pushed up and followed, "It's an eventful day today, but luckily there is no danger , Yingying, I still have something to deal with today, so I won't talk to you, I will go to Lu's house when I have time, you don't have to worry about me, I can handle it myself."

Lu Yingying knew that the old Gu Yanxi might not be able to deal with so many things calmly, but she knew that the current Gu Yanxi could do it.

Since she still has important things to do right now, she won't stop her too much, so she took a step back and said, "Okay, then I'll wait for you to come and find me in the mansion, be careful on the way."

The wheels of the carriage pressed against the bluestone road, making a grunting sound. Watching Gu Yanxi's carriage slowly go away, Lu Yingying heard the louder and louder discussions behind her; she knew that what happened here just now It will be spread by others, but the meaning of the rumors is that it is more inclined to Gu Yanwen who lost her composure first.

As long as Gu Yanxi is not involved, she has nothing to worry about.

Calling the maid beside her, Lu Yingying said: "No matter what others say about what happened in the Royal Manor today, you must keep your mouth shut; remember, my order is that anyone who dares to talk behind their backs, I will pull them out." Whose tongue is it, understand?"

The maids who served by Lu Yingying's side knew this master's temper. They seemed to be very nervous, but they were actually delicate and intelligent. Since even this master had issued such an order, as a servant, he had to obey it. Follow orders to do things.

Therefore, the servants who followed Lu Yingying immediately replied in unison: "Please rest assured, girls, the servants will never dare to go out and talk nonsense."

After getting into the carriage, Gu Yanxi didn't delay anymore, and directly ordered the important people to rush to Gu's residence in the capital as quickly as possible.

In the carriage, Gu Yanling was still sitting with Gu Yanxi, but this time, she had a puzzled expression on her face, and she kept glancing at Gu Yanxi's face.

Gu Yanxi naturally noticed Gu Yanling's expression, and after taking a deep breath, he said, "Second Sister, if you want to ask anything, you can ask directly. If I can answer, I will tell you the truth."

Gu Yanling looked into Gu Yanxi's frank eyes, and for some reason, she was startled by these overly open eyes, as if her peeping at her just now was a collision with her, which made her feel very guilty.

And the moment when this guilt surged up made Gu Yanxi feel very ashamed. It was also at this time that she realized the gap between herself and Gu Yanxi; she had been living under Gu Yanwen's oppression for many years, like a submissive bird , Timidity and cowardice have penetrated into her bones.

Now, even if she wants to muster up the courage to face everything around her, she probably won't be able to adapt for a while; she will never live as proudly as Gu Yanxi, and she will never be like Gu Yanxi, who can reveal it with just a look. The posture of a proud girl.

In front of her own sister, she felt like a bird hiding in a humble place, and her sister was like a proud phoenix, like the sun, radiant and dazzling.

The neglected feeling of jealousy emerged again and kept stirring in her heart. When she saw Gu Yanxi's kind eyes, she got a little better. She tried her best to keep calm and imitate Gu Yanxi when treating others Unhurriedly, she said: "Jiaojiao, what is going on with the eldest sister? Why do I hear that there seems to be something inside?"

Gu Yanxi didn't intend to hide from Gu Yanling what Gu Yanwen was going to do to her, and took this opportunity to tell her the truth.

Gu Yanling listened carefully to Gu Yanxi's statement, her eyes full of surprise opened wider and wider, and she said in surprise: "Did Big Sister really devise such a scheme to harm you? Why is she so confused that she wants to attack you again and again?"

"She's not confused. She made the greatest determination and wanted to fight with me. It's just that she is not very lucky. She used to be too stupid, but now she employs people improperly, so she can't. Blame me for playing tricks, and if you want to blame her, she is obviously not as skilled as others, but she is still restless and wants to make herself unhappy."
