This kind of favor was shocking, and Gu Xijiu had a vague feeling in her heart. She bowed and said, "Your Majesty has shown great favor to Xijiu. Xijiu is deeply grateful, but Xijiu is just a commoner woman. She can't sit here." It's appropriate. Xijiu should go down and sit down." He turned around and was about to leave.
Emperor Xuan grabbed her and said, "Xijiu, sooner or later you will be a member of my royal family. You are not counted as a commoner. Please sit down first."
Will he be a royal person sooner or later? !
Gu Xijiu frowned, the old emperor still wanted her to marry that scumbag Rong Yan
According to the laws of Tianxing Kingdom, if Rong Yan is found guilty of killing Lehua Hou, even if he is not executed, he will be demoted to a commoner and exiled...
Could it be that the old emperor had other plans? Want to use her to create a way out for Rong Yan
She curled her lips and smiled, what a beautiful thought!
Emperor Xuan invited many people this time. Gu Xietian, Rong Jialuo, Rong Che, Rong Chu, and several other princes also arrived.
All kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas were brought to the table by the palace maids and eunuchs, and placed on the small mahogany tables in front of people.
Emperor Xuan said something. He first praised Gu Xijiu's medical skills. His words were full of joy. Before he finished, he changed the topic and asked Gu Xijiu: "Xijiu, who did you learn your medical skills from?"
Gu Xijiu was mentally prepared for this and replied: "Xijiu read some medical books in her spare time and taught herself."
Emperor Xuan raised his eyebrows and repeated: "Self-study?"
Gu Xijiu nodded: "Yes."
"Xijiu, you lied!" Emperor Xuan tapped his finger on the imperial case, his voice slightly cold.
Gu Xijiu didn't panic. She just raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why did your Majesty say that?"
Emperor Xuan said: "Where did your medical books come from? Do you know that the medical books of various sects are not handed down to the outside world? Those medical books circulating on the market are very common things, and when you are fighting with the ancient saint, The contents of the medical books memorized are the essence of medical books, and there are none on the market! As far as I know, General Gu’s home collection does not have many books, and the medical books are even more pitiful. Xijiu, where did you get such medical books? "
Emperor Xuan's suspicion was well founded, and Gu Xijiu couldn't help but send a message to Cang Qiong Yu: "Why didn't you tell me these rules earlier?" As a result, she told a low-level lie and was exposed in person.
Cang Qiong Yu felt aggrieved: "I don't think any of this is important..."
Gu Xijiu was speechless and ignored it for the time being.
"Xiaojiu, you can't deceive me. You should tell the truth, right?" Gu Xietian was afraid that his daughter would tell another lie, so he hurriedly reminded her.
The people present were basically all old-timers in the officialdom, and they were not easily fooled. At this moment, their eyes were all on Gu Xijiu, waiting for her answer.
It's really hard to explain this. She can't say she's a time traveler, right? !
Seeing as these people are so sensitive to the matter of possessed reincarnation, once they know her true identity, they may not be out of curiosity, but simply treat her as a monster and burn her to death!
She made up her mind and told a reason that time-travelers like to tell, and sighed deeply: "It's not that Xijiu wants to lie, but it's actually because she is worried that she will be punished by heaven if she speaks out..."
Emperor Xuan's eyebrows jumped: "Suffering a punishment from heaven? Could it be that your skills are still not gifted by heaven?!"
clever! He actually guessed the reason why she wanted to talk! It seems that there is indeed such a thing as God's gift in this world. If she continues to tell this lie, she will be even more confident. Gu Xijiu nodded: "To be honest with Your Majesty, Xijiu got it from God's gift."
As soon as the words came out, the whole place fell into silence!
