Wanfu, the Reborn Empress

Chapter 708
Hearing what her mother said, Gu Yanxi could only smile secretly in her heart; if her mother knew that Feng Yichen was the leader of the difficult rebel army in her mouth, she might not have said these words so calmly.

As a matter of fact, Mrs. Lin deserves to be the host for many years, and has been walking around with other female family members in the back houses of various mansions in the capital all the year round. This ability to observe people's words and emotions has long been mastered; The child must be hiding something from her.

Immediately, the hand that was combing her hair stopped, and asked directly: "Jiaojiao, do you have something to hide from your mother?"

Ye Chu was secretly thinking of Feng Yichen in his heart, when he suddenly heard his mother's words, he felt a little guilty on the spot, and immediately raised his head to look at his mother, his heart pounding, but his face showed a calm and calm look, and he answered "Mom, we were talking about the rebels, why did you suddenly turn your attention to me? Your thinking is so jumpy, it's a blessing that Dad can bear it all these years."

Lin rolled her eyes at Gu Yanxi with reproach, and said, "You girl, don't think that your mother can't tell, you just mentioned your father at this time, isn't it just to change the topic? Tell you, this move has already Obviously it doesn't work. Also, your guilty conscience must be weird, so tell me, what are you hiding from your mother?"

Gu Yanxi knew that she was hiding too many things from her own mother, and any one she took out would be enough to make her shudder; in order to prevent her mother from being hit on such an important day today, she had to Can tell a lie with no conscience: "Mother, I am your daughter, what can I hide from you? You see, I have basically stayed in the mansion recently, and rarely go out, even if I am in the mansion. I just walked around your yard and grandfather's yard a few times, I am so well-behaved, do you think I need to hide anything from you?"

After listening to Gu Yanxi's words, Mrs. Lin thought carefully that she did not go out of the house recently, so she looked a little embarrassed on the spot, and reflected on herself: "Recently, the capital is not peaceful, and my mother's spirit will inevitably be a little nervous. Stretched, and you are too big a child, and many times even my own mother will be led by the nose by you. My mother is also worried about you, so I will ask you at this time. Moreover, your expression just now is really It's so strange, talking about the rebels for my mother, but you are smiling with your head down and the corner of your mouth pursed. If this scene falls into the eyes of outsiders who don't know anything, they will think that you are with the rebels who rebelled in Jiuyang City What does it matter?"

Hearing her mother's words, Gu Yanxi really didn't dare to underestimate her; as expected of her biological mother, she not only understood her well enough, but also had such a strong intuition that she even opened her mouth to say that she was the same as the rebels in Nine Suns City. related.

Fortunately, this idea is really crazy, so my mother probably won't believe it for the time being.

While comforting herself in her heart, Gu Yanxi looked up at her mother's face and said, "Mother, how could you distrust your own daughter just because of a smile? I just lowered my head and chuckled just because I thought It's just interesting. I didn't expect that a woman in the back house like you, mother, could open her mouth to comment on the situation of Jiuyang City. It seems that the disturbance caused by the rebels is really quite big. No wonder even the people who live in the palace The Son of Heaven can't sit still anymore, and needs to go out to stage such a play at the old matriarch's birthday banquet."

Mrs. Lin started to get busy again, but she still did not forget to tell this eccentric daughter: "Since you already know that the emperor and empress will come to Jingyanghou Mansion today, you must control yourself well, and you must not act like a disgrace in front of the palace." Otherwise, even if you are a mother, I can't save you."

Gu Yanxi agreed wholeheartedly: "Mother's advice to my daughter has been written down, and I will never take care of myself, and I will not let myself embarrass my mother in Jingyanghou Mansion."

Now that the rebel army is in trouble, half of Liang Liang is in dire straits. At this time, one can imagine how bad Emperor Liang Wu's mood is. She is not a fool, how could she show her head at this time to make trouble? ?
Therefore, Gu Yanxi knew what to do even if she didn't need to be told by her mother.

Mrs. Lin looked at her daughter's thoughtful expression, and continued: "Your father has already resigned from the official position for your grandfather. According to your father's intention, the more we are at this time, the more we must keep a low profile. ;The purpose of our going to the old matriarch's birthday banquet today is very simple. Firstly, it is to celebrate his birthday. Secondly, we are to take a look at these princes and princes in the capital, and see which one of them is destined for you , may marry our family in the future."

Speaking of the last sentence, Lin's eyes showed complicated emotions, and even the movements of his hands slowed down: "Before this day came, my mother was looking forward to and thinking about it, but she didn't think about it." Thinking that after this day comes, the mother is actually a little bit reluctant."

As she said that, Lin held Gu Yanxi's beautiful face and muttered: "I raised my daughter so beautifully, counting up and down the capital, even if compared with the princess in the palace, she is not too much. Yes, entrusting such a good daughter to her like this is really like cutting out my flesh with a knife."

Gu Yanxi blushed a little after being praised by her mother, lowered her head and muttered: "Mother, how can you praise your daughter so blatantly? If these words are heard by others, I'm afraid they will really laugh at our mother and daughter."

"I see who dares to make a joke!" Mrs. Lin picked up a jade butterfly-patterned swing and decorated it on Gu Yanxi's temples like the finishing touch. Looking at the masterpiece he had worked so hard all morning, he finally showed a satisfied expression: " Come and take a look, my daughter is not like a fairy descending from the nine heavens, just looking at it can make people feel rare in their hearts."

Lin's praise was really undisguised at all, and all the maids and women who were serving in the boudoir listened to it immediately, especially Luo Mei, now that she was a little more courageous, she sometimes dared to cooperate with her. Lin came to make fun of Gu Yanxi.

No, after hearing Lin's words of praise for Gu Yanxi, the girl jumped out and hurriedly said: "Ma'am is right at all, slaves and maidservants following the girl can be regarded as taking care of everyone in the capital." Most of the girls have seen each other, counting it carefully, except for the daughters of the Tang family who can share the same beauty with the girls in appearance, there is no one who can compare with our girls. The girl is the fairy of the nine days. It's pleasing to the eye."

Luo Mei's words reached Lin's heart thoroughly. These words not only praised Gu Yanxi, but also praised Tang Xin. No wonder Lin couldn't stop laughing from ear to ear.
