The hunt was held in the suburbs of Beijing, and countless people came to participate, not to mention Concubine Gu Shu's mother's family, who was originally a noble of the Zhou Dynasty.
This shows that King Jing has great prestige in the court.
King Jing has a reputation as a wise man, and today even other princes who have always been difficult to deal with are here.
Xie Shu wore a veil and followed Chu Tongshang like a transparent person.
Gu Suisui is also here, and he is taking the opportunity to chat with Mrs. Gu and talk about family affairs.
It was snowy in winter, the entire hunting ground was covered in snow, and it was freezing cold, but there were many noble ladies who came to participate.
The noble ladies in twos and threes were drinking tea, eating cakes, chatting and laughing in the rest area.
Their eyes stared in the direction of the camp entrance from time to time.
If it weren't for the so-called thousand-year-old ginseng, Xie Shu wouldn't want to suffer the cold and hardship in such a place. She would be looking for trouble for herself.
She also knew very well that these noble ladies came to show their faces despite the severe cold. Who didn't know that several princes were still unmarried? Not to mention the main concubine, even getting a side concubine is gold-plated.
The eyes of the four major families can be said to be extremely long, and they will naturally look down on ordinary rich ladies.
Chu Tongshang was going to the main tent, while Xie Shu was waiting outside. It was too cold and there was no place to block the cold wind.
Xie Shu also went to the resting place that had been set up to take shelter from the wind. There was a brazier set up here and it was not as cold as outside.
She knew that her current status was not worthy of entering, so she didn't go in, just to keep herself warm.
She never thought that someone would still make her uneasy.
"Who did I think she was? It turned out to be the former Miss Xie."
The voice was very long, and many family members in the camp were resting here, and their attention was immediately attracted.
Xie Shu opened her eyes calmly and looked over.
"What? You don't recognize me anymore?" The woman wearing a lake blue sequined Guangzhou embroidered dress has a charming face, a red mole between her eyebrows, and the corners of her mouth are raised, looking domineering.
The eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to Gu Suisui's, but more public than Gu Suisui's.
Gu Chaochao.
How could you not know him?
Gu Suisui's cousin, the only eldest lady in the direct line of the Gu family, and also the cousin of King Jing, has a distinguished status.
Xie Shu lowered her eyes, "I have met Miss Gu."
Gu Chaochao stared at her playfully and did not wake her up.
He just pretended to be confused and talked to Mrs. Gu next to him.
"Aunt, look, this phoenix in trouble is worse than a chicken. Doesn't she know the rules?"
"What? She really dared to hit your person with a tray? I don't think so."
Gu Chaochao kept mentioning what happened that day. Xie Shu frowned. She was afraid that she would be in trouble today.
Mrs. Gu waved her hand, a cold light flashed in her eyes, "Chaochao, don't vent your anger on her, you don't know, Xie Shu is not an ordinary maid. Even if she is a sinful girl, she still has the support of the Queen, how can we dare Move!"
Gu Chaochao raised his eyebrows and snorted coldly.
"The Queen?"
"I think some people are pretending to be powerful. Come here, give Xie Shu some tea."
Gu Chaochao turned his head and smiled harmlessly, sitting lazily on the chair.
The servant understood and immediately came over with a pot of boiling hot tea.
The teacup was right in front of her. Xie Shusheng took it, raised her eyes, and looked at Mrs. Gu and Gu Chaochao coolly.
Behind them was Gu Suisui who was hiding.
A crisis spreads.
"Thank you Shu, our lady gave you tea. This is a great blessing. If you spill a drop of it unsteadily, you will have to lie down on the ground and drink it."
The servant said arrogantly.
Xie Shu held her breath and remained motionless, her eyes slowly falling on the teapot.
However, the next moment, boiling water from the teapot was poured into the teacup.
It quickly overflowed, but Xie Shu straightened her back and remained motionless.
The scalding boiling water in the tea cup is scorching hot, flowing over the skin and burning.
The frostbite wound was almost burned, and his hands were red and swollen.
It hurt, but Xie Shu gritted her teeth and endured it.
This was Gu Chaochao's intimidation.
"Auntie, you see, some people are just bitches and they just want to be taught the rules. Otherwise, they would think that she is a rich lady."
"What is it? A sinful girl, even if that good-for-nothing Nangong Yin comes back, can she still be the eighth prince's concubine?"
There was a momentary stalemate in the atmosphere, and Gu Chaochao sneered.
Gu Chaochao didn't even try to save face, and Mrs. Gu and Gu Suisui also looked on with gloating.
If Gu Chaochao is willing to be the first person, then they will reap the benefits.
Xie Shu pursed her lips tightly, her pupils filled with coldness.
Gu Chaochao became even more angry, "What do you mean by looking at me like this? Are you dissatisfied?"
Xie Shu took a deep breath, her fingers had been burned to the point of feeling numb.
Gu Chaochao has always been lawless, relying on King Jing's support to be vicious and cruel.
Should be killed!
"If you dare to be disrespectful to my aunt, this is a lesson for you. Don't think that someone will support you just because the waste is back -"
"ah!"
Xie Shu's eyes turned cold, and the hot tea in her hand splashed onto Gu Chaochao's face!
The next moment, she raised her foot, kicked over the teapot in the hand of the maid, and smashed it decisively and neatly in the direction of Mrs. Gu and Gu Suisui.
The scene was chaotic. Mrs. Gu protected Gu Suisui for fear that he would be scalded by the hot water.
Gu Chaochao, on the other hand, covered his face that had been burned by the tea, howling like a ghost and running around in pain.
"my face!"
"Ah, my face! Xie Shu, you bitch, how dare you throw such a hot thing on me!"
"Catch Xie Shu for me! I'm going to skin her!"
What Gu Chaochao loved most was her face. She would scream like a madman.
Her face was just a little red, but she was so excited.
Xie Shu's hands were bleeding. Even though she was pinned to the ground by the swarming guards, she remained calm as a mountain.
"Miss, I'm going to call the prince right now."
Some people quickly went to ask for a few princes, and some people went to ask for the imperial doctor.
Everyone also gathered around Gu Chaochao, asking for help.
"Miss Gu, are you okay?"
"This Xie Shu is already a lost dog. How can she be so courageous? She dares to burn Miss Gu. His Highness Prince Jing has always loved Miss Gu. Xie Shu will definitely die soon."
"Xie Shu dares to do this, just because she doesn't take the entire Gu family seriously. If this leaves scars on Miss Gu's face, she won't be able to atone for her sin by dying a hundred times."
"Is she jealous of Miss Gu just because of her ugly appearance? Then she is looking for an opportunity to take revenge? Miss Gu kindly gave me tea, but why doesn't she know how high the sky is and how high it is?"
"What do you want me to say that this kind of person is still alive? When I found the Xie family after wandering outside for so long, the whole root was rotten."
Everyone was talking about it, but not surprisingly, they were all talking for Gu Chaochao.
There is no justice for the weak.
What's more, she, Xie Shu, is just... a lost dog!
No one could see the blood on her hands.
