Chapter 1849 Peerless Beauty (22)
As long as she does not lose favor in front of Gu Yan, she will be unscrupulous in the circle of the capital no matter what.
Xia Ling originally wanted to pick up more jewelry in the tailor shop, and dress herself up beautifully when she returned home.
I didn't expect to meet these ladies with broken mouths.
Feeling ruined by them, Xia Ling took Yingchun back home directly.
At night, Gu Yan came to Xia Ling again.
She is the only woman in this mansion, and Gu Yan sleeps here except for the main courtyard.
Xia Ling helped him take a bath and change clothes, but he still didn't talk much.
Gu Yan asked her several times.
He asked for water from outside again.
When the two returned to the couch, pinching her chin, Gu Yan carefully looked at Xia Ling's face following the steam in the tub.
Xia Ling lowered his eyes and let him look at him.
With crooked eyebrows and eyes, the woman in front of him is obedient and beautiful no matter how you look at it.
However, those perverse and presumptuous behaviors, such as pouring a cup of tea to Mrs. Minister of Rites in public, were also done by her.
Just like when Hu Ping and Bai Cui provoked her, she secretly plotted to knock Hu Ping unconscious and throw him into the pool beside the rockery...
Gu Yan wouldn't say that he likes Xia Ling, he just likes Xia Ling's temperament with two faces in front of him and behind him.
He wanted to see how much he had to favor her before she dared to show her minions in front of him?
If it's not to your liking, how about knocking off her minions and making her stay by his side obediently?
"Why didn't you ask about today's matter, why didn't you tell me?" Gu Yan softened his tone.
He was always uncertain about her temper.
Seeing Xia Li, she didn't fluctuate in the slightest, instead she stood by his side obediently.
It can't be ruled out that there is an element of acting in it, but seeing Xia Li's distraught appearance, she always makes him feel happy.
"What did you say?" Blinking, Xia Ling leaned against Gu Yan, resting on his shoulder.
Gu Yan doesn't like being close to others, but when she is with Xia Ling, she will get close to him at every turn, and somehow he is used to her approaching.
Her smell, her frowns and smiles, Gu Yan can imagine in the darkness, without looking at her, how she lazily leans against him.
Gu Yan: "What else are you hiding from me?"
Xia Ling thought for a while, and said: "I had a fuss at Jinji Tailor Shop today, nothing else... nothing else. Yesterday Li Wenshu's wife from the household department came to ask me, Li Wenshu's position would like to be promoted. I blew the pillow wind, I took her money, and promised her to mention it to the master. Well, if you ask me, I just mentioned it, and it's not unconscionable."
"Oh, your business is very successful." Gu Yan glanced at the woman beside him with light eyes.
The weather was getting colder, and every time she leaned against each other, it was as if she wanted to get warmth from him.
He didn't feel bored, on the contrary, he seemed to have a little pet. Sometimes when she fell asleep, he would look at her a few more times.
Gu Yan felt that she was not someone who would be deceived by beauty, but when she met Xia Ling, it was as if she had bewitched him.
He somehow indulged her more and more.
Li Wenshu...
Gu Yan thought for a while before he thought of an honest face.
The civil and military officials of the whole dynasty, since they knew that Xia Ling was a gap here, from the seventh rank to the second rank, they all came to Xia Ling to go through the relationship.
Some things Gu Yan did, and some things Gu Yan put aside directly.
He indirectly gave Xia Ling a way to make money, but he didn't expect that Xia Ling would climb up the pole. Now in this capital, there is probably no other woman who can match her in the limelight.
