"I also know that His Majesty has already granted you a marriage, but isn't Mr. Gu unlucky? My son has a good fate as predicted by the master. If Your Highness is willing..."
Xu Jinyi paused while drinking tea, his eyes suddenly turned cold, and he glanced at the Duke of Xibo expressionlessly. His condescending attitude made people unable to help but surrender.
"I don't want to." Xu Jinyi interrupted firmly.
The Duke of Xibo was interrupted before she could finish her speech. She hadn't even stated her request before her son was rejected.
I felt very ashamed for a moment, and my face turned ugly.
But Xu Jinyi didn't care how she felt, because she was in an even worse mood at the moment.
Since she was in a bad mood, the culprit naturally had to be punished.
She lifted her eyelids slightly, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "The son of Marquis Xibo is also a nobleman, but he has fallen so low as to lower himself to become my concubine. How despicable!"
King Xibo widened his eyes, unable to believe what he heard.
Xu Jinyi's tone was cold, and there was no sarcasm in his words, but they made people feel embarrassed.
"Your Highness, how could you...?"
"My son has admired you for many years and wants to serve you and win your love. What's wrong with that? How could Your Highness insult my son like this?"
Duke Xibo never thought that Xu Jinyi would refuse. After all, her son was a famous young man in the capital.
The most important thing is, what side lord? Her son wants to be the main lord! The main lord!!
King Xibo felt like his lungs were about to explode with anger.
Xu Jinyi's lips curled up in a cold arc: "Knowing that I have a legitimate husband, you still took the initiative to come to me, and being insulted by His Highness is your own fault."
"A good young master, instead of being someone else's principal wife, you rush to be a concubine. Isn't that lowly?"
"Did Your Highness say something wrong about him again?"
Xu Jinyi's tone was flat from beginning to end, without a trace of emotion, making it difficult to tell what she was feeling.
Duke Xibo served as an official for twenty years, and it can be said that he watched Xu Jinyi grow from a baby in swaddling clothes to such an adult.
It is not an exaggeration to say that she is her elder. Now she is being insulted by the junior and her face is being trampled on the ground. The Duke of Xibo was so angry that his face turned blue and white.
Seeing this, the maid was afraid that she had fainted.
"If Your Highness doesn't like my son, you can just reject him directly. There's no need to insult him like this."
"My son truly loves His Highness. Upon hearing that Young Master Gu was critically ill, he was worried that Your Highness would be sad, so he wanted to share His Highness's worries. Unexpectedly..."
Xu Jinyi's eyes glared, and he stood up and walked over to Marquis Xibo. "Listen carefully, Your Highness. I don't like a lowly person like your son. Whether he's the main ruler, a concubine, or a servant, Your Highness won't want a lowly person who throws himself at me!"
"Besides, my prince is only temporarily unconscious. He will wake up and live with me till old age, with many children and grandchildren."
"In the end, even if he doesn't wake up, I will stay with him forever, and we will be together forever."
King Xibo opened his eyes wide, not knowing whether he was angry or shocked, and fell backwards in a daze.
"My Lord!" The two maids beside Marquis Xibo were shocked and caught Marquis Xibo's body.
There was fear and shock in his eyes when he looked at Xu Jinyi.
No one expected that the once playboy Prince Xian would become such a lovesick man after falling in love.
A couple for life, these words shocked everyone present.
Especially the male servants present, they all stared at Xu Jinyi in a daze, as if the three obediences and four virtues they had been taught since childhood had been overturned by her.
I secretly envied the unconscious Mr. Gu.
How enviable it is to have a couple love each other for a lifetime.
The maid looked at Xu Jinyi with an indescribable expression, doubting whether what she said was true or not.
Duke Xibo fainted, but Xu Jinyi's expression did not change at all. Instead, she looked at her two maids.
"Go back and tell your son everything I said today, without leaving a single word. If you dare to shamelessly come to my house again, don't blame me for being rude."
"yes."
The maidservant was frightened and helped the Duke of Xibo away in a hurry.
Xu Jinyi's personal maid stood aside, looking worried.
"Your Highness, you just made Xibo Hou faint from anger. This was too impulsive. She and the Imperial Censor are sisters. If His Majesty knew about this, he would hold her accountable tomorrow."
"I'm just telling the truth." Xu Jinyi disagreed.
"Your Highness, is what you just said true?" asked the maid.
"What?"
"A pair for a lifetime." The maid actually couldn't quite understand Xu Jinyi. After Gu Chen fell ill, Xu Jinyi seemed to have changed a lot.
But I never saw her cry or be sad, or lose sleep or eat. She still dressed up beautifully every day and never missed a meal.
But he took care of the unconscious Gu Chen nakedly and did everything by himself.
She said she loved him, so why didn't she seem sad and even had the mood to dress up?
If you say you don't love me, then why can you put aside your status, do these servant jobs, and still say that you will be together for life.
The maid said she didn't understand.
"Of course, from now on you will only have one master, Gu Wangjun."
Then Xu Jinyi did another surprising thing. She actually asked someone to dig a dog hole next to the middle door that only dogs could get into.
Then they wrote a few large words with gold paint, without caring whether the facade would look good or not, just to make sure people could see them at a glance.
The hole is small, the font is large, and the golden color is very conspicuous.
"Please enter through this door, sir!!!"
The whole capital was in an uproar.
Everyone was asking what had happened in Prince Xian's mansion, and soon everyone knew that the Duke of Xibo had come to recommend himself to his son to be the concubine.
For a time, there was constant discussion in Prince Xian's mansion, and all the concubines and those who were about to become concubines did not dare to go out.
Those men who were not yet engaged were envious and lamented why they had never met a woman like Prince Xian.
They don’t have to be equally good-looking, and it doesn’t matter if they are a little ugly. All they want is the love of a couple for the rest of their lives.
The son of the Marquis of Xibo cried at home with red eyes. The censor learned that his sister and nephew were treated like this in the Prince Xian's Mansion.
He entered the palace to meet the emperor in a threatening manner and joined forces with other ministers to taint Xu Jinyi.
The main reason was that Xu Jinyi's move caused too much of a commotion, which made many men who had already been engaged regret their engagements.
If I were to marry, I would marry someone like the Third Princess, and I would love to be together forever.
She said that if there was no such person, she would rather not marry.
The major families were so angry that they cursed and swore, each of them was furious.
The empress had heard about Xu Jinyi's stupid behavior early in the morning. She was so angry that her face turned ashen and she almost had a miscarriage.
Before Xu Jinyi was allowed to meet the emperor, the ministers arrived.
