Chapter 64 Can’t stand it
"After all, you are still young. It is normal for you to feel discouraged for a moment when you encounter great changes."
Qin Xinlan did not blame her. She stepped forward and personally helped Gu Xi up. She comforted her with soft words and had great confidence and expectations in her.
"I believe that with your ability, even if you don't want to fight for power or make contributions, you will still achieve something, because your light cannot be covered up no matter what."
Gu Xi, "..."
Not to the point of not to the point of not.
Teacher, don't praise me like this, I can't bear it.
"Teacher, in addition to thanking you for hiring me this time, I also want to dissuade you from participating in Prince Ning's case of collaborating with the enemy and treason."
Gu Xi expressed another intention of coming.
Qin Xinlan frowned slightly and asked her,
"What do you think of the Prince Ning case?"
"Ning Wang's great achievements shocked the Lord, but he was jealous of the emperor. The emperor wanted to execute Wang Ning, and he even did not hesitate to collude with Bei Yan.
Therefore, if you want to rehabilitate Prince Ning and Zhaoxue, you will definitely offend the emperor, make you angry, and even risk your life."
Gu Xi didn't hide anything, she said everything clearly. She just hoped that the teacher would not insist on his own way and could recognize the danger here.
"The emperor personally colluded with Beiyan?!" Qin Xinlan was slightly shaken, her face was full of pain, and she did not doubt Gu Xi's words, because it also verified some of her guesses.
She pursed her lips and said in a deep voice,
"Xi'er, I know all your worries, but there are some things that you know you can't do, but someone still has to do them.
As the eldest princess, whether it is from the perspective of royal family ties or from the perspective of protecting the country of Qin, when the emperor makes a big mistake, I have to admonish him. This is my duty and my belief.
If I shrink back because of fear, I will lose my faith and the foundation of my life. Then I will have no dignity to live on, and no shame to see my father after my death."
Gu Xi looked at the gentle, noble and upright teacher, and was so touched that she couldn't help but become speechless.
It seems that no further persuasion is needed.
This is the path chosen by the teacher, and she walks on it firmly.
But...she doesn't want to see the teacher make unnecessary sacrifices!
"Teacher, can you wait a little longer until Prince Ning shows up and see how he defends himself? Then you can come forward to help, which may have better results."
Gu Xi couldn't help but persuade again.
"I heard that Prince Ning was hunted down and surrounded by them and was seriously injured. Now I don't know whether he is alive or dead. I'm afraid that if I don't come forward, the emperor will not give Prince Ning a chance to show up, so he will be executed secretly."
Qin Xinlan frowned and said worriedly.
"Teacher, I can't guarantee anything else, but Prince Ning will not die or be caught by the emperor. You can wait if you have time."
Gu Xi said decisively.
Qin Xinlan looked at her and read something from her bright eyes, and couldn't help but feel something in her heart.
"You...forget it, stop talking. I believe you, okay, I can wait. If you need help, just say it and don't hold it back yourself."
"Then I'm not welcome. There should be a lot of precious healing medicinal materials there, teacher. Why don't you give me some?"
Gu Xi blinked and said with a smile.
At the same time, she also emphasized the word 'healing' somewhat suggestively.
Qin Xinlan understood, and looked at Gu Xi with bright and excited eyes. She bit her lip, suppressed the turbulent emotions in her heart, grabbed Gu Xi's hand,
"Xi'er, thank you! I didn't ask too many questions for fear of leaking out. I knew that you were still the same Xi'er who had firm beliefs and a righteous heart. I am very pleased to be my teacher!"
Gu Xi smiled bitterly inwardly.
No, she is just a salty fish who just wants to lie down!
If the teacher knew that she almost left Prince Ning behind and chose not to save him, I wonder if he would never recognize her as a student again.
Qin Xinlan walked back and forth a few steps excitedly, then gradually calmed down, then smiled and said to Gu Xi,
"Since you accepted my appointment, you, the new wife, can't be lazy. Today happens to be the piano test, so you should give them a lesson."
Gu Xi originally planned to attend classes once a month at most, but she wouldn't take any more classes. She didn't have the mood or energy.
Since the teacher proposed to finish things early in the morning, Gu Xi agreed.

On the other side, Gu Rong finished dressing up and went to the academy in a carriage with several other sisters from the Hou Mansion.
Previously, there were four ladies in the Hou family, Gu Xi was the eldest, Zhongyi Hou had two concubines, and Gu Xi's second uncle's family had a legitimate daughter.
Previously, Gu Xi was the eldest sister and a legitimate daughter. In addition, she loved taking care of her sisters and was generous with her, giving them gifts from time to time. Her status and prestige in the hearts of the sisters were number one.
Not to mention the two concubines, even the other legitimate daughter, Gu Qian'er, was willing to listen to her and happily became Gu Xi's follower.
Although there is a concubine-like respect among the sisters, there is nothing too nasty. Even if there are some minor quarrels, they can be reconciled quickly.
Such a situation is naturally due to Gu Xi, who tied these sisters together.
However, now that Gu Xi is gone and Gu Rong has joined in, the tether suddenly falls apart.
Although Gu Rong is a legitimate daughter, Gu Qian'er and the others don't even listen to her, they don't accept her in their hearts.
Gu Qian'er was her legitimate daughter, with a fierce and frank temper. She didn't like Gu Rong, so she pretended not to, either ignoring her or making sarcastic remarks when she saw her.
After all, Gu Rou and Gu Die were concubines and lacked the confidence to express their displeasure openly.
They were all kind and friendly on the surface, but privately they complained that they didn't give Gu Rong any love points when she came and Gu Xi left.
For example, this time for school, the Hou Mansion sent two carriages, but Gu Rong took one by herself, while the other three people crowded together and did not take one with her.
Gu Rong was isolated.
Gu Rong was naturally angry at being isolated, but she also looked down upon Gu Qianer and the others.
In her eyes, they are just a group of little girls who have just entered the first grade of junior high school and can only play such childish tricks.
After a while, when she becomes a sought-after talented woman, they will not only envy her, but even try to please her.
Feicui was very pleased to see the young lady keeping her composure, but she still reminded her.
"The fifth young lady has a hot temper. When she gets to the academy, she might even make trouble for her. Just deal with her as you normally would. Don't confront her head-on."
That is to say, let Gu Rong pretend to be innocent and pitiful.
"Don't worry, I'm the best at pretending to be soft and weak, your lady." Gu Rong said.
Jade smiled and flattered her again, putting Gu Rong in a good mood.
-
When they arrived at the entrance of the academy, Gu Qian'er got off the carriage first, followed closely by Gu Rou and others.
Gu Rong was concerned about her appearance for the first time and asked Jade to check her hairpin, hair, and clothes twice. There were no problems before she opened the curtain and prepared to get out of the carriage gracefully and calmly.
However, just as she was about to get off the car, she heard someone outside saying,
"I heard that Gu Xi came to the academy today. Have you seen her?"
