Reborn to marry ex-husband's nemesis

Chapter 267 What She Wants To Be
"Girl, that person seems to be injured."

The dark red blood condensed into ice, which was particularly eye-catching in the snow.

"Girl, why don't we go back?" Shuqi was so frightened that his face paled and his heart beat like a drum, "I heard that the smell of blood can attract wolves, tigers and leopards, and there are many wild animals in the back mountain of Hongfa Temple. Now, what should I do, girl, you can't have any accidents!"

"It's okay." Chu Xi chuckled, "Saving someone's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Now that I'm in a Buddhist holy place, I naturally have to help."

What she didn't say was that the man looked at the brocade clothes from a distance, and knew that the other party was either rich or expensive, and if he could be saved, maybe he could have a good relationship.

After getting closer, he found that the other party's hair was disheveled, his face was dirty, and there were bloodstains on it. No need to ask, he knew how fierce a fight he had experienced before his death.

For some reason, Chu Xi always felt that this person looked familiar.

She and Shuqi, two weak girls, definitely couldn't carry this man back, so Chu Xi sent Shuqi to the front yard to call for help.

Shuqi refused at first: "If the servants leave, this barren mountain is still so cold, what if something happens?"

Chu Xi said: "It's okay, you go and come back quickly."

Seeing that the girl insisted on this, Shuqi didn't want to say much, for fear of offending the girl, he had to run back and call for someone.

Apparently, Hongfa Temple has encountered such situations in the past. As soon as they heard that someone was injured, they quickly sent the Drifting Monk over, and several people carried the injured back to the meditation room with ease.

After going back, Chu Xi said: "It's ashamed to say, if the little girl hadn't caused troubles in the temple, the masters wouldn't have been so busy. To express her guilt, the little girl would like to add another 300 taels of incense money to pay for the temple. Sorry."

The monks hurriedly said, "The Bodhisattva, the almsgiver, has a heart and should be praised. There is nothing wrong with it."

But in the days that followed, after all, Chu Xi and the wounded were treated with more courtesy.

But he said that this person was rescued by Chu Xi, so Chu Xi took care of him.

After Dong'er returned the water and wiped off the dirt on his face, he unexpectedly discovered that this person was Gu Changyan, the eldest son of Prince Rui's residence!

"Girl! He, he, he..."

Shuqi also obviously recognized Gu Changyan's identity, and was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

"Shut up." Chu Xi said quickly with trembling fingertips, "This matter must be kept secret, you know?"

She knew that this person was extraordinary, but she never expected that it would be Gu Changyan Gu Shizi, whom she had admired for a long time but was unable to marry.

Chu Xi lowered her eyes, as long as she saved Gu Shizi, then she would be Gu Changyan's benefactor, if...

Chu Xi gritted her teeth. For the first time, she hated why fate made fun of her like this. If she could have saved Gu Shizi earlier, then she would definitely marry Gu Shizi as his concubine.

Gu Shizi is gentle and gentle like jade, such a gentleman is rare in the world, not to mention that he has never been married, and he has never heard of any concubine. He is no more than the fourth prince. He already has a fourth prince and concubine. She used to be just A concubine.

Chu Xi really hated it, hated the injustice of fate, hated why fate treated her like this.

No!Such an idea was rejected by Chu Xi in just a moment.

She told herself that she wanted to be a master, even if she married Gu Shizi, so what?What could love do for her?Nothing at all!

Although she is married to the fourth prince, she does not love the fourth prince, but the fourth prince is the queen's son. Now that the prince is incompetent, the fourth prince is the last person who may take that position. Empress, everyone wants to kowtow to her to pay her respects, such a scene cannot be exchanged for love!

Thinking of this, Chu Xi finally strengthened her will.

But... She can take this opportunity and make good use of it, after all, saving lives is like reborn parents.

Thinking of this, she lightly touched Gu Changyan's white and handsome cheek with her fingers, and whispered softly: "My son...you need to get better soon, my little girl will depend on you in the future..."

Gu Shizi is the fourth prince's right-hand man. The fourth prince himself said that as long as Gu Changyan is there, he will definitely be able to take that position. Now that she has saved Gu Shizi again, are you afraid that the fourth prince will not be crowned a great treasure?
This time, even God is helping her!

Gu Changyan is still unconscious here, while Chu Xi has long been engrossed in her imagining of a bright future, unable to extricate herself from it, it can be considered that the years are quiet and no one disturbs her.

But the capital was in chaos.

It was only early in the court that it was reported that Gu Changyan had been assassinated and his whereabouts were unknown, and Han Zhan was severely mixed up.

What's more, the officials who escorted Han Zhan back to the capital saw with their own eyes that it was a light hand. If he hadn't provoked him, how could Gu Shizi's whereabouts be unknown?

Qingyi is Han Zhan's guard, he can do it, no need to think it's Han Zhan's intention.

Remembering his daughter's words, Chu Zhang glanced around, and sure enough, it was the Chen family who were talking. He glanced at His Majesty, his eyes half closed, and his hand on the armrest of the dragon chair was tapping slowly, unable to distinguish his emotions.

The Chen family faction in the court strongly demanded that Han Zhan be dealt with, but the prince's party said that the matter was not done by the young marquis.

Gu Shizi has disappeared, and his whereabouts are unknown. Since he saw it with his own eyes, how would he know that he was assassinated?You said it was instigated by the young master, who can prove it?

Just when the dispute between the two parties was in full swing, His Majesty finally spoke.

He only heard him ask slowly: "Aiqings said that this matter was done by the young marquis?"

"Exactly!" The Chen family said, "The officials saw Qingyi and Gu Shizi attack with their own eyes, and only Qingyi came back, and Gu Shizi disappeared. If it wasn't for the order of the young master, where would Qingyi have the courage?"

"Heh!" Emperor Xiao chuckled, "I just found out that my lovers actually have the ability to predict things."

The faces of the Chen family who said something were different.

Chu Zhang blinked, glanced quietly, and just raised his head when he heard His Majesty shout: "Where is Hai Xiuyan?"

"The minister is here."

"What do you think?"

"At this time, the matter is of great importance, and I dare not speak in vain."

"I told you to say it!" Xiao Huang said, "Say it! I forgive you for your innocence."

"Since that's the case, let me bluntly say that once something happened to Gu Shizi, the young master became the first object of suspicion. I think that although the young master is playful, he is a smart person."

Emperor Xiao's expression softened, and he finally nodded and said, "Finally there is someone who understands."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was speechless, especially the Chen family.

"Give me an order to search around for Gu Shizi's traces, find someone first, and then talk about it. As for whether it was the young master who did it, when you find Gu Shizi, you will know the result by asking yourself."

As soon as the words came out, someone was ordered to do it immediately.

"Your Majesty." The Minister of Rites took a step forward, "Now that the Young Lord is returning to the capital and the Jade Dragon City is lost, I wonder how Your Majesty will deal with it?"

Emperor Xiao raised his eyebrows: "When will your Ministry of Rites take care of this?"

The Minister of Rites said: "It's not that I'm overstepping the rules, but the New Year's Eve is approaching, and I'm going to start preparing for the prince's sacrifice, so I'm asking more questions."
