Chapter 8 Invisible Game

The next day, just after Mao Zheng, Gu Xiying woke up. Wanqing lifted the curtain to serve Gu Xiying to wash and was shocked. The princess of her family had always been around Chen Shi, but why was she sick now half an hour early? She hurriedly asked Mo Yu to go and send her food.

There is no old man or old lady in the British Duke's Mansion. Mrs. Xiao loves the children and never lets them go to the main courtyard to pay their respects early in the morning.

Gu Xiying started from time to time since she was a child, and had breakfast in her yard, and then looked at what arrangements were, whether to read books and pass the morning light or learn to pick and choose the beauty of a girl. As we all know, Gu Yubin is weak, and he has never been after Mao hour since he was seven years old. He usually sleeps for an extra hour, and then walks around the mansion for two rounds, and then goes to the study room outside. At noon, the brother and sister will go to the main courtyard to have dinner with their parents.

Gu Xiying saw Wan Qing’s face a little surprised and smiled and said, “I’ve been sleeping while sick, but I haven’t been asleep for a long time now. You were on duty last night and you’ve been on duty before the guests arrive yet, so go and take a rest.”

Wanqing did not refuse. After serving Gu Xiying to wash up, she saw Moyu put on the bowl, so she called Moyu to comb Gu Xiying's hair. Thinking about the visiting time written on the princes' greetings, she was about to go back to the house to take a short while. When she passed by the yard, she saw Zhaohong and Qiushuang reciting Yunluo's flower stands, and she made a few words and quickly returned to the room.

Gu Xiying looked at herself in the mirror and saw that Moyu had combed her hair very well. She used a hairband filled with pearls, and a coral bun and a small tiny flower. She looked beautiful and beautiful. Gu Xiying grabbed Moyu's hand that wanted to make her makeup, and shook her head with a smile.

Mo Yu thought Gu Xiying felt troublesome in her heart and did not want to put on makeup again, so she advised: "Princess, the princess, today the princes are not ordinary guests, so they are better off solemn and bright. The princess has not recovered from the serious illness, so she puts some makeup on to cover up her face."

Listening to Mo Yu's comfort, I thought of my past self for a moment. No matter when, where or what is the current situation, I always look solemn and bright, and I don't let anyone care about it at all. Is it because of my decent status or my competitive attitude since childhood? I can't tell whether it's because of my decent status or my competitive attitude since childhood?

Such bruises and bruises were considered to be a grievance of being unintentional and ruthless bullying. Gu Xiying closed her eyes and smiled. Let them all disappear.

Now I will no longer hold on for anyone's face.

"You also said that I was sick, so they would be considerate. There is no need to dress up too much. Just behave normally." Gu Xiying thought about what happened today and answered perfunctorily.

When several princes came to the mansion, they always covered up on the grounds of visiting them for the sake of the reason. Naturally, they had to come forward to meet them. How should they deal with it?

Should we find an opportunity to suggest that His Majesty will be assassinated?

If so, who would it be more appropriate to say? The death caused by Your Majesty's assassination this time is the basis for the third prince to succeed to the throne. If it were mentioned, would the position of the emperor change? With Empress Tian's identity and means, in two years, when the seventh prince becomes an adult, the throne will probably fall naturally into his hands.

In my heart, Gu Xiying hopes that the Seventh Prince can ascend to the great treasure. They are both peers and have a friendship that grows up together. In addition, their love and hatred entanglement with Zhou Guangyu in the previous life is always closer than the distant third prince. If he became the emperor, he might be able to marry Princess Meiyu Langhuan, whom he had been thinking about in his previous life, and he could also think that it was his determination to cut off the past in this life.

However, Zhou Guangyu's personality should be a general who charges in battle, but it is not suitable to be an emperor.

He is brave, decisive, not afraid of sacrifice, and has a innocent heart. He can be famous for his family and defend his country and expand his territory. In contrast, he is easily deceived and paranoid in his inner house affairs. Decisiveness becomes arbitrary, and not afraid of sacrifice becomes ruthless, and innocent heart is more easily exploited. In this way, how can he fight against those concubines and conquer those civil officials with a slight orifice?

Although the third prince was suspicious by nature, he used his own way of weighing the trade-offs to perfection. In his previous life, he really created the prosperous era of Qi. Even if he used military service for many years, he was just a little tired, and the people lived much more.

Such a ready-made ending was in front of Gu Xiying, and she had to hesitate.

On one hand, he is the husband in his previous life who has been in love for his whole life, and on the other hand, he is the third prince who is suspicious by nature but is a good emperor.

Gu Xiying could only fight between heaven and man, and even gave up on herself and wanted to simply say nothing, let it go.

Gu Xiying was in a state of confusion, so she saw Mo Yu tie her up again, wear a bright and round pearl hairpin, and wear earrings of pearls the size of a lotus seed rice. She looked warm and charming, but she looked haggard due to illness. She took a deep breath and praised her mouth, "This is great." But she made a decision in her heart, then let it go.

In Yanqiyuan, the Duke of the State was accompanying Mrs. Xiao for breakfast after practicing the morning exercise.

A cup of hot rice soup, a few plates of side dishes and a tray of ordinary steamed buns, the food was simple and comfortable. The still handsome prince had a gentle smile in his eyes, not like Gu Shura, who had been on the border of the Western Frontier for nearly twenty years.

Qi State established its country with martial arts, and it was the world obtained from horseback. The prince was the first prince's companion. He practiced martial arts in the schoolyard and learned military tactics in the tent. Although he was seventeen years old, he was a child who grew up in the military camp who was following His Majesty and was a real child who grew up in the military camp. During his leadership, he was strict and invincible. The 200,000 troops under his command were also the most powerful and strongest in the entire Qi State.

When it comes to the most troublesome generals in the Western Xinjiang, it must be the name Gu Yue and Gu Huairen. Even after returning military power for so many years, the British Duke Gu Shura Wu Pan'an's reputation still remains unabashed on the border of the Western Xinjiang.

Although it cannot be as good as the child crying at night, it is still the same.

Even now, in the Western Expedition Army, there are still 20,000 elite troops handed over to the British Duke for personal inspection every year. The Gu Shuai Banner, which has been passed down for many generations, still floats over Hezhou, shocking the Western Xinjiang.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! The dishes were removed, and the Duke of the State rinsed his mouth and raised his eyes. He couldn't help but ask: "Ahui, what's wrong with you? It's rare to see you worry so much." As he said that, he stood up and sat next to Mrs. Xiao, holding a hand, gently pressing Mrs. Xiao's eyebrows with his index finger, and said jokingly: "Frown, I feel upset. I'll relieve Ahui, Ahui, Ahui, Ahui, is a hundred years old."

Mrs. Xiao didn't expect that the Duke of the State was so old that she coaxed her like she was taking care of a child. Her face suddenly turned red. She quickly waved the Duke of the State and took her eyes to see the people serving in the hall.

Except for the Qin Mama beside her standing in the corner with her eyes and eyes staring at her nose, the people in the hall were missing, and she felt relieved. However, she saw that she had just waved the Duke's hand and was tightly held in her hand. She knew she couldn't pull it out for a moment, so she called out "Huairen!" and said with a sweet look, letting the Duke hold his hand happily.

The Duke of the State has been cold and stubborn since childhood, but he was devoted to the wife who had been married since childhood. What he liked to do the most was to make the quiet lady blush. Seeing that she succeeded, she returned to her serious appearance as a glorious moon, and asked what was wrong.

Mrs. Xiao said: "Most of the arrangements that came to the governments yesterday to thank each other were thought by Asi, and you know it. I was thinking. Asi was originally smart, but had a little irritable temper. We originally planned to make Yu Bin still call him sick, and we said that our family only wanted peace and stability and did not fight for anything. We were more arrogant towards Asi, so that everyone could understand that Asi was the pearl of our family and the bottom line.

In this way, Asi will not dare to fight against her if she is a royal family or aristocratic family.

In the past, Asi was too strong. He would rather be more determined than bend in everything and would decide the outcome. He would be honest and persevere. To put it nicely, he would be indomitable and principled. But if this is put on a woman, he would be more competitive.

If her husband loves her in the future, it doesn’t matter if he spoils her any more. But look at this Asi grew up with several little princes in His Majesty’s family since he was a child. Seeing that Tiandi followed Guangyu and did not give in to others, he would be fine to Shanghai Guangyu anyway.

It would be fine if Asi was just a brother-sister relationship for him, but if he married in the future, Asi would have tortured himself.

Look at Guangyu again. He is heartless all day long, not like he is about to be sixteen. If you have something to do, you will stay in the school. It’s not that this is not good, but you can’t become a fool who only knows martial arts. You must know that Your Majesty has high hopes for him.

I was always worried that they would not be able to go together in the future. But look at this now, Asi is sick and has a lot of gentleness when she wakes up. If she saw what was being plotted in our mansion in the past, she would not care about who was behind the scenes, and then look after it. With her methods, she could find out, but she also cut off all possibilities. Just like now, she knew how to draw slowly and lead the snake out of the hole, which was the real intention of family matters and the requirement to be stable.

But in my heart, I always feel that it’s not a good thing to say.”

Mrs. Xiao lowered her eyes slightly, and her voice was soft. Except for the Duke who was close to her, even Madam Qin standing aside could hardly hear it. She saw a faint smile on the corner of the Duke's mouth and added, "You know, I'm not a person who loves to think about it. But last night, I didn't know what happened. I always recalled the crying sound of Asi during the day. I always felt that there was a grievance that could not be dissolved. I always felt that Asi woke up from this disease and soft look was not just because she was sick and unspirited. You said I was old, why did I feel restless for this?"

The Duke of the State went to the palace to play chess with His Majesty yesterday. He had to make the keys before he came back. He went to Tinglanyuan to quietly look at his beloved daughter's sleeping face and went back to the main courtyard. He didn't see Gu Xiying waking up at all, let alone hear her crying.

But the youngest daughter I personally brought up since childhood, let alone actually cried in front of me. The Duke of the State felt heartbroken just by listening to his wife's retelling. He comforted Mrs. Xiao: "I see you, I feel sorry for you. Asi has been strong since childhood, and she cries more when she acts coquettishly. When you see her crying, you will naturally be in chaos.

Do you remember that she was only six years old that year, and she sneaked into the beast well with Guangyu and the others, and ran into the big hunting dog that was scattered out of the cage to let the air and left the wind. The hunting dog stood up with one person. Guangyu was already ten years old and had a little weak legs when he saw this. The six-year-old Guangming and Aqing were also crying, but our Asi, although his lips were so scared that his lips turned white, he clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and did not retreat, neither crying nor calling for help."

After the Duke said this, Mrs. Xiao remembered it. That day, Zhou Guangyu rarely returned to the palace from the schoolyard early. He met three people who were wandering around in the garden together, so he suggested going to the Beast Well to take a look.

The beast well is a garden dedicated to hounds. At that time, a group of large hunting dogs that had not been completely tamed were entered from the Northern Zhou Dynasty. I heard that they were all long and had a bloody mouth, and were even bigger than ordinary foals. Four and a half children didn't even take one of them to serve, so they sneaked to see the freshness, but they didn't want to let the wind to get rid of one of them and were hitting them.

On one side is an untacled dog, and on the other side is a panicked child. The scene is somewhat dangerous. If Zhou Guangyu had not been practicing some martial arts, he could at least stabilize his position. Queen Tian would come to Zhou Guangming quickly, and maybe what would happen to these two princes, one prince grandson and the princess Asi.

Although Zhou Qing is the same age as Zhou Guangming, she is a generation younger than the ninth prince. She is the posthumous son of the prince. Although her father is His Majesty's eldest son and has been named the crown prince, her biological mother is just a concubine in the Eastern Palace. Even Liangdi is not from a good background, and she is a little embarrassed. When she is involved in the blood of the prince, she was named Prince Xiangkang at the age of six, and she is also educated in front of Queen Tian on weekdays.
