Chapter 23

Gu Xiyan returned to Xiyuan, opened several portraits and looked at them again and again, but her mind was far away.

Chunhua and Qiushi were full of joy, it was a blessing among misfortunes that they missed a king of Qin and there were so many excellent men for girls to choose from.

"My servant thinks that Third Young Master Xu is the best-looking, and he is the best match for the girl." Chunhua also came up to look, and immediately fell in love with Xu Yanqing.

Gu Xiyan laughed dumbly: "Why are you so superficial, you only look at your face?"

"Qiu Shi, do you think the third son Xu is the best match for the girl?" Chunhua looked at Qiu Shi and asked.

Qiushi has his own ideas: "Mr. Xu San is good-looking, but he also needs to be good-natured. The most important thing is that the girl herself likes it. The servant girl hopes that the girl can meet a husband who really loves and respects the girl. , looks come second."

Gu Xiyan took it for granted: "No matter how good your appearance is, you will grow old one day."

She put the portrait aside, thinking it was silver that gave her a sense of security.

A few days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhou Mu sent someone to deliver a message to Gu Xiyan. The meeting time was set for tomorrow at Xiangguo Temple. This time, the meeting person was Dong Yong, the second son of Marquis Yongcheng.

After Gu Xiyan received the news, Chunhua and Qiushi were the happiest people.

If they were right, that son-in-law might be their aunt tomorrow, so how could they be unhappy?
The person involved, Gu Xiyan, was very calm.She felt that it was just a matter of acquaintance, even if she fell in love with him, he might not be in favor of her, after all, her status in the Hou's residence was embarrassing.

Although she has Zhou Mu's backing, she can't marry by force.

But seeing the two girls and Shen's mother happy, she didn't have the heart to pour cold water on them.

The next day, Gu Xiyan got up early, and was dragged by two maids to sit in front of the makeup mirror to dress up.

She has a beautiful face, even if she doesn't make up, it's hard to look away.This time, she deliberately put on light makeup to highlight her soft facial features. Her beautiful eyes are like clear lake water, translucent and charming.

Even the two girls who were used to her beauty couldn't help holding their breath after seeing Gu Xiyan dressed up.

This is clearly a fairy descending to earth.

"Keep it safe today, Mr. Dong can't move his eyes when he sees the girl." Chunhua said, and specially helped Gu Xiyan choose a red dress.

Gu Xiyan shook her head and said: "We are going to Xiangguo Temple, there is no need to dress too brightly, ordinary clothes are fine."

I'm going to see each other, and I'm not getting married today, so why do I have to dress so eye-catching?

Chunhua had no choice but finally picked out a simple and elegant light-colored dress, and helped Gu Xiyan change into it.

Before going out, Liu Chaoyan happened to run into Gu Xiyan who was about to go out, and immediately sarcastically said: "You run out all day, so it's because you have some good friends outside, right? It doesn't matter if you lose your reputation, don't affect the marriages of other sisters. "

The girls of the Liu family are all at the age of dating, and Liu Junyan is also looking at each other.If Gu Xiyan really wants to spread any scandal, it will affect the entire Hou Mansion.

She looked at Gu Xiyan as a restless person, and she was likely to do something bad for her.

Gu Xiyan didn't bother to pay attention to Liu Chaoyan, and planned to go out with Chunhua and Qiushi.

Liu Chaoyan looked at Gu Xiyan's back, it was not pleasing to the eyes horizontally or vertically.

Zhou Xing didn't come to the Hou's Mansion recently, since the old lady's birthday banquet, Zhou Xing hadn't walked around the Hou's Mansion, which made her flustered.

"Xiangtao, send someone to inquire about His Highness King Qin's recent whereabouts. If there is anything unusual, report to me immediately." Liu Chaoyan was suddenly afraid of Zhou Xing's empathy.

She didn't want to think about what happened in Qingxin Xiaozhu that day, but if Zhou Xing was with Su Ho recently, what would she do?
"Yes, girl." Xiang Tao took the order and left.

The carriage that Gu Xiyan was riding in just left the Hou Mansion, and the carriage that Zhou Mu was riding in followed closely behind.

It is more than half an hour away from Xiangguo Temple, and Gu Xiyan is a weak woman, and the two maids around her are also helpless, so he is naturally worried about her going to Xiangguo Temple by herself.

As for the other people in Wanqinghou's mansion, they can't count on it, so he can only keep an eye on it.

Qi Zhiyuan felt that his son was really worried about Miss Gu's marriage. People who didn't know thought the son was Miss Gu's biological father, and even Miss Gu had to pay close attention to him.

Chunhua was the first to notice a carriage behind him, and immediately reported the matter to Gu Xiyan.

Gu Xiyan raised the curtain and looked over, and recognized that it was Zhou Mu's carriage: "It's Mr. Zhou. I don't think you can rest assured that I went to Xiangguo Temple alone, so I followed."

Chunhua joked: "Young Master Zhou treats girls very well. If you don't know, you may think that Young Master Zhou likes girls."

Gu Xiyan smiled and shook her head: "Don't say such things in the future, Mr. Zhou is unmarried, and he will never marry anyone in his life."

Qiushi and Chunhua looked at each other, and asked in unison: "How does the girl know?"

Gu Xiyan can't say that in her previous life, Zhou Mu was an emperor and didn't get married, could she?
He is not interested in love between men and women at all. He probably grew up in Fallen Immortal Temple. He has no desire for power, and he has no interest in women.

She was ambiguous, and she took the topic past.

Dong Yong accompanied Mrs. Yongchenghou to Xiangguo Temple early.

Originally, the news that Gu Xiyan was divorced by the King of Qin caused a lot of trouble in the city. No matter which noble family he was from, it was impossible for him to be interested in a down-and-out noble girl who had just been divorced and was not valued by the family.

However, a few days ago, Liu Qing, a celebrity beside Emperor Chengde, personally sent the imperial tribute fruit to Wanqinghou's mansion. This matter had already spread in the capital.

And this time, Emperor Cheng De personally acted as a matchmaker. Under such circumstances, no matter how poor Gu Xiyan was, she became a favorite.

Dong Yong is actually not interested in seeing each other.He just wants to make contributions at the moment.A man's ambition is everywhere, why should he be trapped in the love between men and women too early?

Furthermore, he didn't have much thought about women.Given that he was born in an honorable family like the Hou's Mansion, although he is not a son of the eldest son, he should have a lot of wealth.

For now, he has no interest in getting married.

If his mother hadn't claimed that His Majesty was the matchmaker, he wouldn't have come to Xiangguo Temple to see him today.

There was still a quarter of an hour before the agreed time, when Gu Xiyan, accompanied by Chunhua and Qiushi, went down to the lotus pond of Xiangguo Temple.

A young man in a lavender dress embroidered with dark cloud patterns turned his back to her, watching the fish in the pond.

Gu Xiyan didn't know if this was the one she was looking for, and was a little hesitant to say hello.

Chunhua and Qiushi had a tacit understanding and pushed Gu Xiyan at the same time.

When Dong Yong heard the movement behind him, he turned his head and saw a girl in a light blue dress. She was wearing light makeup, with delicate features, snow-white skin, beautiful eyes, and a slim figure.

A gust of wind blew by, revealing her slender waistline, and her graceful figure was like a green willow, as if she wanted to ride the wind back home.

She was actually a stunning beauty who was both innocent and charming to the extreme.

You Baozi can't figure out Xiyan's life experience, so Daqian will explain it here:

Liu Shu is Xiyan's biological father, Wan Qinghou is Liu Shuzheng's younger brother.Da Gu is Xiyan's biological mother, but she died, and Xiao Gu is Da Gu's biological younger sister, but married Wan Qinghou.In one sentence, the Gu sisters married the Liu brothers. I don't know if this would be easier.

The treasures run away after reading the table, leaving some footprints that they have seen, and giving Daqian a little encouragement.
