Chapter 179 Doesn’t she also like my cousin?
Xie Wan'er was exposed and was not embarrassed at all: "Cousin, listen, she did it on purpose. What a vicious heart!"
Gu Xizhi said seriously: "Princess Heya studied under Yuhua Mountain, and her medical skills are indeed superb. This time, you have met a miracle doctor, and maybe he can really cure your disease completely."
Xie Wan'er glared at Gu Xizhi. Because of her petite stature, she had to raise her face: "Are you sure you really want her to treat me?"
Gu Xizhi nodded: "Don't worry, Princess Heya and your brother are sworn brothers after all, and they will definitely do their best."
"If I get better, won't you regret it?"
"If you can recover, I would be happy for you."
Xie Wan'er raised her hand and pinched Gu Xizhi's arm hard: "Okay, you can burn the bridge by crossing the river! I'll tell my aunt to go tomorrow."
Gu Xizhi felt the pain and took a breath of cold air, but did not get angry. He just smiled and teased: "The bigger you get, the worse your temper."
Madam Xie was shocked and hurriedly apologized: "Wan'er is so bold, why don't you quickly apologize to the prince?"
"Excuse me?" Xie Wan'er wrinkled her nose: "That's a nice thought."
He turned around angrily and got into the carriage parked on the side of the road: "Mom, let's go!"
Mrs. Xie asked Liang Jiang: "Shall I give you a ride?"
Liang Jiang shook his head: "Thank you, stepmother. I came here on horseback, so I won't bother you."
Mrs. Xie did not force herself and told Xie Fubai: "Remember to send the galangal back to the Duke's mansion."
Xie Fubai agreed absentmindedly.
Xie Wan'er on the carriage held open the carriage window again, stuck her head out, and said to Xie Fubai seriously: "Just now, Jian Shuyan did not scold me, but that woman is gentle, virtuous, and so on. She is considerate, but she is just pretending. In fact, she is mean and vain. She is not worthy of your cousin and you at all. You must not be deceived by her false appearance. "
Xie Fubai was irritated: "What nonsense are you talking about again? Miss Jian and I are innocent."
"Bah, when she first wanted to use you to become famous, she tried every possible means to get close to you, used you to blend into the circle of the rich and powerful in Beijing, bragging about how much you admired her, and kept you close to her.
Now that you want to be the Princess of Pingxi, but don't want to bear the reputation of being a betrayal, you deliberately spread rumors about you and Liang Jiang. This kind of two-faced woman, you regard her as a treasure. "
Xie Fubai's face turned cold and his anger could not be suppressed: "I won't allow you to slander her like this. She is also our future cousin-in-law after all."
"Not anymore!" Xie Wan'er said firmly: "If she becomes Princess Pingxi, I will quarrel with her eight times a day!"
Xie Fubai was irritated and said indiscriminately: "I'm afraid you've forgotten that you just settled a loss and couldn't quarrel with others, so you're so angry that you're sick?
If someone doesn't look good to you, don't provoke them, lest you end up getting angry with yourself and using your skills on your family members. "
Xie Wan'er was not convinced: "I never thought that Jian Shuyan would be so talkative. When I find help later, I must scold her back. Let her know how powerful I am."
Xie Fubai became more and more impatient: "Little ancestor, just stay at home peacefully and don't abuse yourself. We will be Amitabha."
Xie Wan'er held the car window open, her eyes rolled around and landed on Liang Jiang.
"I see that you are very talkative and have great skills. You still respect the princess. Why don't you help me? When the time comes, I will let my cousin marry you as a concubine."
In the carriage, Mrs. Xie scolded: "Wan'er, don't talk nonsense!"
"Who is talking nonsense? Doesn't she also like my cousin?"
Xie Wan'er turned her face and looked at Liang Jiang thoughtfully.
The air suddenly solidified and it was extremely quiet.
Gu Xizhi and Xie Fubai all looked at Liang Jiang.
Liang Jiang's face suddenly turned red, reaching the roots of her ears.
Then he stumbled and asked: "Who are you listening to, Princess Wan'er?" Xie Wan'er snorted: "Who wouldn't like such a good man like my cousin? What's more, you are a single man and a widower. , we went back and forth to Xiliang together, I am afraid she has been secretly liking her for a long time. You see, her ears are red, she is obviously embarrassed by me. "
Gu Xizhi secretly took a look at Liang Jiang's ears, and saw that there was indeed a hint of crabapple red at the base of her ears. This blush was quietly smeared, and even her ears were red and translucent.
The corners of his lips raised slightly uncontrollably, his eyes were slightly panicked, and he lowered his head unnaturally.
Liang Jiang became a little angry and said seriously: "I am here to see the princess today, not to be teased by you. It makes no sense."
After saying that, he turned around and left, almost fleeing.
Behind him, Xie Fubai scolded Xie Wan'er: "You speak so freely, why haven't you made any progress at all?"
Xie Wan'er was stunned as she watched Liang Jiang's reaction.
"Run away? Is that all she has? I expected her to go with me to settle the score with Jian Shuyan. Sure enough, seeing is worse than hearing. She is nothing more than that. She is not as powerful as the rumors say."
Xie Fubai slapped his head helplessly: "Do you think everyone is as crazy as you? After you go crazy, we will follow behind you to wipe your butt.
Liangjiang is alone, dragging the entire Duke's palace behind her, walking on thin ice, how can she mess around with you? "
Xie Wan'er blinked her eyes and said in frustration: "It's boring, I can't count on it, mother, let's go!"
The carriage drove away and returned directly to the Marquis' Mansion.
Xie Fubai and Gu Xizhi looked at each other helplessly. Gu Xizhi glanced in the direction of Liang Jiang and said calmly: "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. Wan'er said something that makes sense. Think about it for yourself."
Xie Fubai hesitated: "Cousin, is what Wan'er said true?"
Gu Xizhi nodded: "Everything is true."
"You knew this a long time ago? That's why you suddenly changed your mind and agreed to this marriage, completely cutting off my thoughts, right?"
"Half and half. It was forced by the situation and I had to respond."
Xie Fubai smiled bitterly: "Perhaps, she does have compelling reasons. Please be merciful, cousin, and don't blame her."
Gu Xizhi patted him on the shoulder helplessly: "She is also my mother-in-law's savior after all. How can I repay kindness with hatred? I just want to cancel this marriage so that you can take care of yourself."
After saying that, he turned around, took the horse, and left directly with Guan Qi, heading in the direction where Liang Jiang disappeared.
After chasing two streets, I saw Liang Jiang.
It was already nightfall, and the lanterns around her were lit one after another. She was riding a horse, her beautiful back was slender, and her whole body was covered with a layer of dark orange light. Her black hair was gently raised by the night wind, and every strand seemed to be... All shining.
Guanqi shouted: "Good girl!"
Liang Jiang didn't look back. He didn't seem to hear it, but he also seemed to hear it. He shook the horse's rein and sped up.
This time, Gu Xizhi clearly felt that Liang Jiang was deliberately avoiding him!
Not only him, but also Guanqi noticed it.
"My lord, have you offended the good girl?"
Gu Xizhi was a little irritated: "How do I know?"
"I felt it when you came out of Jian's Mansion just now. Miss Liang walked eight feet away from you and didn't even look at you."
Gu Xizhi thought for a long time and couldn't figure out where he had offended Liang Jiang. Could it be because of Tong Shouliang's matter?
Guan Qi added another sentence: "But having said that, Miss Liang is right to do this. Now Princess Wan'er and Miss Jian are fighting for you, and no one with any sense is willing to eat it." It’s not like mutton makes you look sexy.”
After saying that, I felt that what I said was a bit offensive, so I hurriedly said to please you: "I'm not saying that you are coquettish, Your Majesty, but just to use an analogy, Miss Liang may be jealous."
