Gu Shiyi casually took a piece of white silk and covered her body, then she opened the door.
Xiao Zhi immediately walked in and closed the door, then went straight to Gu Shiyi's wardrobe and looked at the clothes inside, her face full of distress and sadness.
"Why?" Gu Shiyi was curious, why would Xiao Zhi reveal such an expression to the wardrobe, but when Gu Shiyi walked to the wardrobe and looked at the scene inside, she understood everything.
There were only four or five clothes inside the wardrobe. Apart from the middle garment, there were only two pieces of clothes that could be worn. Among the two clothes, one was a washed, white, yellow butterfly pattern shirt, and the other was a slightly yellow, white brocade dress.
Although Gu Shiyi was mentally prepared for it, she was still shocked when she saw it with her own eyes.
Gu Shiyi didn't say anything and took out the white dress. It was now October, and the sky had already turned cold, but after bathing, she had already discovered that her body was cold.
After changing her clothes, Xiao Zhi quickly placed Gu Shiyi in front of the dressing table, and used a dry cloth to twist her hair.
Gu Shiyi looked at the familiar face in the mirror. She was so shocked that her eyes were wide open, and she didn't dare to blink for a long time.
The woman in the mirror had fair skin, thin as cream, picturesque eyebrows, a pair of phoenix-like eyes, an exquisite jade nose, and a spot of red lips. She was absolutely beautiful and enchanting!
This face was almost exactly the same as Gu Shiyi's original face, except that it lacked a tinge of ferocity and aloofness!
If her name and the original owner's were said to be a coincidence, then her appearance was actually the same. Gu Shiyi could not help but think of this.
"Miss, this servant has discovered that you are no longer the same as before!" After Xiao Zhi finished losing her hair for Gu Shiyi, she looked at her beautiful face in the mirror and exclaimed in surprise.
Gu Shiyi was very beautiful, and even had the title of the number one beauty in Great Xia Kingdom. However, this reputation did not give Gu Shiyi any convenience, because in front of the number one beauty, there was a label of trash.
The number one trash beauty, anyone who heard her would snort in disdain, especially in a country like Great Xia Kingdom, where only the best people knew about it.
But now, on Gu Shiyi's body, the cowardice and inferiority complex were all gone, between her eyebrows, there was only a light of self-confidence and a calm temperament, causing Xiao Zhi to become infatuated.
"I'm back to reality!" Gu Shiyi stretched out a hand and waved it in front of Xiao Zhi. If she didn't leave now, her cheap father would probably go crazy.
Just as Gu Shiyi entered the main hall of the hall, she was stopped by a loud shout.
"Scoundrel, the Crown Prince has arrived. What a shame in your attire!"
Gu Shiyi looked up and saw a forty year old white bearded man with a refined and refined temperament staring at her with a furious face. This was her father who gave her money for free, Gu Minghong!
Although his appearance existed in her memories, only when she saw him for real would Gu Shiyi be able to feel how real those memories were, as if she had experienced it herself.
Looking at the crowd in the main hall, which one of them wasn't dressed up properly, except her, who was wearing old clothes, and those who didn't know, who would have thought that the coarsely dressed girl was in the wrong place, even Situ Xun was frowning when he saw her dressing up.
"But father, this is the best clothes for eleven!" Gu Shiyi had an innocent expression, causing her gaze to immediately turn to Gu Minghong.
Gu Minghong's face suddenly turned ugly, he immediately turned and glared at Sun Rumei, and just as he was about to question him, Situ Xun had already snatched him away.
"Master Gu, Gu Chuan is here to deliver the decree today. Don't care too much about such small matters." The crown prince's face was filled with impatience. He did not have time to listen to what was happening to Gu Shiyi in the Prime Minister's Estate.
"Your Highness, please forgive me. This old official will have someone burn incense right now!" Gu Minghong did not want everyone to know that he had treated Gu Shiyi harshly. Since the crown prince did not care, he would just take it.
Everyone, including Gu Shiyi, kneeled down in an orderly manner. Seeing this, Situ Xun loudly read the imperial edict in satisfaction.
The Emperor has decreed that the direct daughter of the General's House, Gu Shiyi, is to be betrothed to the late Emperor and will not be able to return to her place. However, it is true that her actions have gone against her reputation, and her reputation has been ruined. She has even defiled the royal family's dignity, and according to the system of ancestors, she should be sent to the Four De Institution.
"This subject shall accept the decree, and thank you for your grace, my lord!" Gu Shiyi took the decree and laid on the ground, her eyes filled with coldness.
So it turned out that what they were doing was all for this moment.
The emperor, empress, crown prince, Gu Moxue, Sun Rumei, they were all scheming very well!
Before Gu Shiyi was even born, she was already pointed out by the late emperor to the crown prince, who was then the eldest grandson of the emperor, to be her wife. When the prime minister's daughter became his future Crown Prince's consort, everything could be said to be flawless, and could even be said to be a match made in heaven.
However, in the past few years, Gu Shiyi had been in a difficult situation at the Prime Minister's residence, and the name of useless trash had spread throughout the entire Great Xia Kingdom.
However, it had only been five years since the current emperor ascended the throne, and it was time to stabilize the human heart. He absolutely could not abolish the late emperor's last wishes at this time.
But right now, Gu Shiyi was about to turn 30, once she reached that age, the marriage date would be immediately set. How could the emperor be willing to let such a weak girl become the Crown Prince's consort?
Especially Crown Prince Situ Xun, who was the party involved, he felt that the marriage contract was even more shameful.
Gu Shiyi wasn't clear on how the crown prince had hooked up with Sun Rumei and her daughter, but she had thought that it would work in an instant, which was why everything had happened in the beginning.
So it turned out that their original goal was not to kill her, but to let her have a good night's reputation of not coming back. Of course, if she were to die from the fall, she would be even more beautiful.
If it was found out, it could be explained as the jealousy between women. However, at that time, their final goal would be achieved, and the process would no longer be important!
Situ Xun looked at Gu Shiyi who was kneeling on the ground coldly. He was overjoyed, and finally, the shame that was wrapped around his body was erased, causing his following voice to become gentler.
"Get up, Gu Shiyi. I know that this Cloud Mist Mountain has a famous Temple of Mercy. How about it, do you want me to write an imperial edict for you so that you won't have to spend the rest of your life in such a miserable state?" Situ Xun's face was filled with arrogance and sympathy.
Very quickly, the content of the imperial edict would be announced to the world, saying that she would be allowed to get married by herself, but at that time, who would be able to marry her, Gu Shiyi!
"I thank the Crown Prince for his kindness. However, I am afraid that with his reputation, he will not even open the door to the monastery for you!" Gu Shiyi stood in front of Situ Xun, and looked straight into his eyes with a bright and beautiful smile. Even though she was stating the truth, she didn't seem sad or unwilling at all, instead, she was extremely confident and calm.
