Chapter 373 made Gu Xiaoxi feel uncomfortable

Gu Xiaoxi smiled awkwardly and waited for Concubine Pang to sit down and take her pulse carefully.

However, Concubine Pang's eyes kept wandering around Gu Xiaoxi's face, making Gu Xiaoxi feel uncomfortable.

"Mother!" Ye Lixuan couldn't stand such a look, let alone Gu Xiaoxi.

Hey hey...

Concubine Pang nodded, then said dissatisfiedly: "How come it's not enough to just take a look? I always disagreed with the girls that my mother introduced me to. It turns out that you have someone you like. Why didn't you tell my mother earlier?

Mother almost asked your father to arrange a marriage for you. Fortunately, Mother didn't do it, otherwise you would be in trouble."

"Yes, yes, it's my fault." Ye Lixuan hurriedly admitted his mistake.

Gu Xiaoxi blushed after being told that. After examining Concubine Pang, she asked Ye Lixuan to leave. She gave him an acupuncture injection, prescribed some medicine, and then left.

The feeling of a daughter-in-law meeting her parents-in-law made her feel very depressed, and she hated that restrained feeling.

Ye Lixuan saw Gu Xiaoxi coming out of the house with a bad look on her face. Thinking that something was wrong with his mother's health, he hurried to meet her.

Without waiting for Ye Lixuan to speak, Gu Xiaoxi said, "Your Majesty, there's nothing serious wrong with you. She'll be fine after acupuncture and some medicine."

"Thank you for your hard work." Ye Lixuan held Gu Xiaoxi's hand gratefully.

Gu Xiaoxi pulled her hand out and said, "Go in and see the queen, she's awake."

Just as Gu Xiaoxi was about to leave, Ying Er brought Eunuch Zhang in.

Seeing Eunuch Zhang's anxious look, Nanny Yang hurriedly asked, "What happened in the palace? Why did you come here so quickly?"

Eunuch Zhang glanced at Gu Xiaoxi, and Ye Lixuan said, "We are one family, so if you have something to say, just tell us."

Eunuch Zhang then told the two of them about Hua'er's betrayal of the Empress.

Nanny Yang was furious after hearing this. She cursed in a low voice, "This shameless bitch! I took pity on her and moved her from the fire room to the front to serve the Majesty. I never thought she would dare to betray her master!"

"That's not the case. He is such a heartless person!" Eunuch Zhang was also angry.

Ye Lixuan thought for a moment and said, "Since the Queen is so eager to know about Mother's situation, then she can reveal some information occasionally. This will also make it easier for us to lead the Queen by the nose."

"Second Master is smart. I understand." Eunuch Zhang nodded.

"Go back. Just leave the palace once every two days. Go back!" Ye Lixuan waved his hand.

"Yes!" Eunuch Zhang followed Ying Er out of the palace and returned to the palace.

Gu Xiaoxi listened to their conversation without interrupting.

After waiting for Eunuch Zhang to leave, she walked out of the yard.

After leaving the yard, he instructed the servants outside to take him to the guest room to rest.

Ye Lixuan could see that Gu Xiaoxi was not in a good mood, so he followed her in to see his mother first. After making sure that she was okay, he went to the yard outside to look for Gu Xiaoxi.

When he heard that Gu Xiaoxi had moved into the guest room in the outer courtyard, he frowned slightly and went over to knock on the door.

Boom boom boom!

Gu Xiaoxi sat there and didn't want to open the door. She didn't sleep well last night and followed him into the palace early this morning.

Boom boom boom!

The door was knocked again, and Ye Lixuan's voice came from outside: "I know you haven't rested, can you open the door and talk?"

Gu Xiaoxi dragged her tired body to open the door, then sat back down.

"What's wrong with you?" Ye Lixuan asked with concern.

"I'm not used to this kind of life. You know I'm used to freedom. If there's nothing to do here, I'll go back to the village." Gu Xiaoxi felt that it was still difficult to adapt to this kind of life.

Having a mother who is a royal concubine, there must be a lot of rules, and she doesn't like anyone setting rules for her.

"Don't worry, my mother is not the kind of person who likes to set rules for others. It's just the first time she sees you, so she looked at you for so long." Ye Lixuan also knew that Gu Xiaoxi didn't like this.

But now, even though he has a mother who is a royal concubine, he has no choice.

"I know, this is my problem." Gu Xiaoxi shook her head.

She likes wealth and glory, but this must be based on freedom. If she has to kneel down to talk to people every day, she would rather go to the mountains to farm.

Ye Lixuan didn't know what to say. Some things could only be discussed with his mother.

After Ye Lixuan left, she turned and entered the space, asked the robot to make lunch for her, ate a few bites, and went back to the bed outside to sleep.

She slept until late at night, got up from the bed, opened the door, and found that the sky outside was full of stars.

"Miss Xiaoxi, your servant Dan'er greets you. The prince has instructed that you can just tell me what you want to eat." Dan'er saluted Gu Xiaoxi.

Gu Xiaoxi didn’t know where Ye Lixuan got this girl from, but she thought he was thoughtful.

"Okay, prepare some appetizers and chili dishes for me," she ordered.

Daner took the order and retreated.

Gu Xiaoxi walked to the chair outside and sat down, put one leg on another chair, and looked up at the beautiful sky comfortably.

In the other room, Nanny Yang hurried in to report to her mistress: "Madam, the girl is up and sitting outside in the yard admiring the moonlight! It's..."

"What is it?" asked Concubine Pang.

"She doesn't look like a lady at all, with her legs resting on another chair." Nanny Yang reported truthfully.

hehe……

Concubine Pang laughed after hearing this: "It doesn't matter whether she is a lady from a noble family or not, as long as Li'er likes her, it's fine.

I've never seen Li'er like a girl so much before, I can't mess this up."

"But, if this girl doesn't have a good family background, I'm afraid the emperor won't agree." Nanny Yang said worriedly.

Concubine Pang naturally knew about the importance of marrying someone of equal social status, but she didn't want to see her son sad.

"If it really doesn't work, we can think of other ways later." She didn't want to care about it anymore.

When Nanny Yang heard her master say this, she didn't know what to say.

Concubine Pang got up and walked out of the house. When she came to the gate of the yard, she saw Gu Xiaoxi looking up at the sky with a smile on her face from afar. She didn't know what made her so happy.

"Empress!" Ying Er came in from outside and shouted when he saw the imperial concubine standing at the gate of the courtyard.

clang!

Gu Xiaoxi was so frightened when she heard this name that she fell off the stool.

Upon seeing this, Concubine Pang hurried over to help Gu Xiaoxi up. She dusted her hands off with concern and said, "Are you hurt? It's all my fault for scaring you."

"No, no, it was my own carelessness." Gu Xiaoxi said embarrassedly.

She was complaining about the other person's too many rules in the afternoon, but she didn't expect that he would come to help her now, and his voice was so gentle.

Concubine Pang helped Gu Xiaoxi up from the ground, and pulled her along as if she were looking at her daughter, saying, "We don't have so many rules here. Just get along with Li'er the same way you did before."

Gu Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment. It was obvious that Ye Lixuan had said something to Concubine Pang?

Her face flushed as she nodded, "Thank you, my lady!"

"I haven't thanked you yet? You not only saved my only son, but also saved me. If anyone dares to bully you in the future, they are against me." Concubine Pang said as she pulled her into the house to talk.

At this time, Daner led people and brought food into the house.
