That's what she said, but Gu Xin was still quite sad. Her father didn't take this opportunity to pick her up. Did her father not like her anymore? Did he forget about his daughter now that he had three younger brothers?
The next day, Gu Xin slept until noon before getting up. The maid brought her a new set of clothes, braided her hair, and put on a beautiful makeup.
"Is something important that you've dressed me up so nicely? Isn't the Great Zhou delegation supposed to arrive the day after tomorrow?" Gu Xin hadn't dressed herself up so nicely in a long time, and she almost didn't recognize herself in the mirror.
"Your Highness, Miss Xie said she found a fun place outside the city and wants to take you there! Miss Xie said that Your Highness has been training troops so much that you wouldn't know you're a girl if you didn't dress up, so she asked me to dress you up like this," the maid replied.
"This Yiyi, how long has she been here? I've been here for so long, don't I know where the fun places are?" Gu Xin muttered with amusement, and didn't refuse the maid's request to dress her up.
After dressing up, Gu Xin listened to the maid's praise and happily went to have dinner with the Sand King.
After lunch, she was led by a maid to find Xie Zhiyi and Gu Yingxue.
She hadn't felt this relaxed in a long time. Everything on the street seemed fun to her. People doing small business on the street were giving away flowers and food, and she was giving away whatever she sold.
Gu Xin and her maid were almost out of money, so the common people stopped giving them away.
"By the way, where's my brother Yuanyuan? Where's my brother?" Gu Xin suddenly remembered that she hadn't seen Lu Zheng or Cheng Huaijin during the meal.
"Your Highness, the Prince and General Zhou were summoned away by General Peng and Madam Peng early this morning," the maid replied.
Gu Xin pursed her lips, her eyes darting around. Had they all gone to some fun place? Were they going to prepare some kind of surprise for her?
Suddenly, three bearded men appeared in front of her and blocked her way.
"Wow! The women of Liusha are indeed beautiful!" The slightly taller, bearded man in the middle looked Gu Xin up and down with a greasy gaze.
The maid stood in front of Gu Xin to block her view.
The bearded man next to him pulled the maid over and restrained her hands.
Gu Xin raised an eyebrow. "Oh ho, where did this big bearded man come from, daring to act wildly on my turf?" she thought. "Let go!"
The bearded man who grabbed the maid grinned and said, "So what if we don't let go? You want to hit us?"
Gu Xin then took direct action.
The two on the sides were easy to deal with, but the one in the middle was more difficult. The more she looked at the one in the middle, the more something seemed off. Those eyes looked so familiar, as if she had seen them somewhere before.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew by, and the two bearded men she had ordered the patrolmen to grab shouted, "Beards, beards have fallen off!"
Gu Xin heard this and immediately reached out to pull the man's beard.
With a quick rip, Gu Xin's eyes widened, and she immediately reached out to smooth the other person's thick eyebrows.
Gu Nian smiled and looked at the pretty young girl in front of her: "Women from the west are not only beautiful, but also very feisty!"
Gu Xin reached out to take off Gu Nian's hat, then froze, looking at Gu Nian, tears streaming down her face.
Gu Nian stretched out her hands.
Gu Xin immediately rushed over, crying, "Waaah, sister, sister..."
Once captured, Huo Yanyu quickly gestured to the patrolling soldiers: "Brother, look, your princess knows us! Let us go! We're really not bad people, we were just joking with your princess!"
