C5 Make Him Happy
Halfway through her sentence, she seemed to have difficulty swallowing the rest of her words.
When Lin Yi Rong saw this, she was certain that Han Junyao had accepted Gu Xi yesterday. It was no wonder that he would behave like this today.
She was so angry that she just wanted to shake off the hand that was holding her.
But she couldn't do that right now! She had to continue to obtain Gu Xi's trust. One day, she would make this hoof die a graveless death!
As if he hadn't noticed the resentment in her heart, Gu Xi pulled her hand and shook it pretentiously, "Big Sister Yi Rong, don't be angry. It was just a misunderstanding on my part. Let's continue talking, alright?" I also want to ask Sister Yi Rong if there's any way for me to make Han Junyao happy. "
"You want to make the king happy?" Lin Yi Rong looked at her in surprise.
"That's right. Since I've decided to stay in the palace, I naturally have to make him happy." "Good elder sister, quickly teach me what can I do to make him happy." Gu Xi was still shaking her hand with an anxious expression on her face.
Seeing this, a plan surfaced in Lin Yi Rong's mind. She slightly frowned, "There is a way to make you happy."
"What method?" Gu Xi's eyes lit up and her face was filled with anticipation.
Lin Yi Rong enjoyed herself very much. Gu Xi looked at her with such a worshipful gaze.
She didn't keep him in suspense and said in a soft voice, "You had always wanted to escape from him. If you could approach him on your own accord this time and give him a small gift, the Yan King would definitely be very happy."
"A gift?" Gu Xi loosened her hand and knitted her brows slightly. She looked a little vexed. "Han Junyao is the prince, and is also His Majesty's half-brother. What kind of precious gift has he never seen before? What can I give him …"
As Lin Yi Rong listened to her mutter to herself, her heart became even more angry. It was as if she was showing off how outstanding her man was.
She suppressed the anger in her heart and said along with Gu Xi, "That's right, the prince's status is noble. No matter how precious the gift you send me is, it won't be worth the reward from His Majesty. Why don't you give me a little handmade gift. "
"Mm …" "Since the Hundred Blossom Festival is coming, why not send a scented sachet to the Yan King? If I can receive your scented sachet, the Prince will definitely be very happy."
"Hundred Flowers Festival …" A matter suddenly flashed through Gu Xi's mind, causing her expression to change.
"That's right, the Hundred Flowers Festival will be very lively today. When the time comes, all the unmarried couples in the Imperial City will be able to go to the Hundred Flowers Forest. That kind of liveliness …" Ah, my apologies, I forgot about the matter of the Yan Emperor not allowing you to step out of his manor! Let's talk about the scented sachet. "
It was as if Lin Yi Rong had just discovered that she had leaked her information. Looking at Gu Xi's pale face, she felt rather pleased in her heart.
Humph! No matter how much Han Junyao loved you, you were just a forbidden power in his residence, even if it was nameless! At that time, if she could …
Thinking up to here, Lin Yi Rong hurriedly restrained herself from thinking any further. With a slightly concerned expression, she pulled on Gu Xi's hand, "Little girl, what's wrong with you? Why is your face so ugly and your hands so cold all of a sudden? "
"It's all my fault, I shouldn't have brought it up …"
"Don't worry, I already have Han Junyao. Even if I go to the Hundred Flowers Festival, I won't be able to find anyone better than him. It doesn't matter whether I go or not." Elder Sister Yi Rong, you should go to the Hundred Flowers Festival and have a good husband now. " Gu Xi suppressed the anxiety in her heart and recovered.
She suddenly remembered something!
In her previous life, she had fainted during the Hundred Flowers Festival due to Han Junyao's severe injuries. She had no impression of this annual festival, but one of the most important things happened on the night of the Hundred Flowers Festival!
Her father, Gu Changqing, had been accused in the Fragrant Jade Tower, and while he was fighting with Shang Shu's son for the girl's hand, he had accidentally kicked the Shang Shu's son to death!
As both of them had extraordinary identities then the incident was very big. In the end her father was detained in front of the king's castle. But he had committed suicide and died in prison!
Her mother had hanged herself on the same day because she could not bear the blow!
The people of the Southern Marquis Estate originally didn't care about her father, who was a bastard. After learning of this matter, they were only anxious to reprimand him and not rescue him.
When she woke up from her severe injuries, what she received instead was the news of her parents' death.
She didn't believe that her father would go to a place like Jade Fragrance Pavilion, and because she was imprisoned by Han Junyao, she blamed this hatred on him. She believed that he was the one who framed her father and made her a homeless woman!
After all, her parents had loved each other so much at the time, and her father would never go to a place like the brothel!
"Little girl, you sure know how to tease me …" Do you still want a scented sachet? The spice formula for my scented sachet is unique. " Lin Yi Rong glanced at him angrily, pretending to be angry. She didn't know that Gu Xi's mind had already flown elsewhere.
"Oh, really? "Let's hear what kind of formula it is." Gu Xi pulled her thoughts out of her memories and glanced over.
What Lin Yi Rong wanted was to give her the formula. Without any unnecessary words, she asked, "Do you have a brush, ink, and paper?"
"Green Bamboo!" Gu Xi called over the maidservants who were in charge of handling Xuan Grass and told them to prepare some things. She then pulled Lin Yi Rong to walk towards the stone table under the tree.
When the green bamboo came back, Lin Yi Rong finished writing the spice formula and passed it to Gu Xi.
She did not need to look closely to know that there was something fishy going on.
There was something in this spice that was similar to the incense she had lit in her room earlier. It was something that could aggravate Han Junyao's mania!
Gu Xi remained calm and collected. She gave the prescription to Qingzhu and told her to go prepare it.
When Lin Yi Rong saw that the recipe had already been given out, she secretly rejoiced in her heart. With a mysterious expression, she tugged at Gu Xi's sleeve. "Little girl, the truth is, the unique part of my formula isn't in that formula. It's this thing …"
As she spoke, she took out a round, dark purple stone about the size of a thumb from between her sleeves.
"A stone?" Gu Xi curiously took it and looked at it. When she smelled the scent on the stone, the light in her eyes quickly changed and she suppressed it.
Lin Yi Rong didn't notice the flash of coldness and was still talking about the stone.
"Don't underestimate it. It's not a stone, but a special kind of spice. "When you're done mixing the spices, and then you grind this stuff up and put it in, the fragrance will definitely be unforgettable. When the time comes, your highness will definitely like it."
Gu Xi's eyes flashed.
If she didn't know how to use poison, she would have been fooled. But now … Haha, after mixing this with the spice formulas, the fragrance it gave off was really unforgettable.
After all, this was the incense of life!
The man behind Lin Yirong wanted Han Junyao's life?
No, it couldn't be like that! Han Junyao had a special physique, and this poison wasn't enough to take his life. When the time came, she would be the one to suffer!
Gu Xi sneered in her heart, and her face was filled with joy. "Really? Big Sister Yi Rong, you can go back first. "
