Concubine to conquer the world

Chapter 474
She respectfully blessed Xia Jianzhao.

"Biao sister-in-law is really a beauty worthy of her reputation. Stories about her cousin's deeds have spread throughout Dacheng, and those storytellers in Yanzhou are praising her deeds every day."

"For example, Princess Mu is alive like a miracle doctor, healed King Mu's leg, and helped him to rise to the top of the Golden Palace. For example, Princess Mu is alive like a Bodhisattva, opening a school to help the world."

Having said that, Gu Yan showed a look of admiration.

But what she said inside and outside the words were obviously provocative.

She was implying that Nan Xun was able to be what he is today because of Xia Jianzhao. Xia Jianzhao's reputation was far greater than that of Nan Xun who was so proud.

If a woman living in the backyard outshines her husband, she will be indifferent and cast aside.

Watching this scene from a long distance, Yao Zhi and Qing Shan sweated a lot, both of them were nervous as if they were the parties concerned.

Xia Jianzhao's moist eyes just looked at Gu Yan so calmly, and listened to Gu Yan's words quietly.

But just two sentences confirmed that her hunch was correct.

This ancient face has two brushes for walking in the rivers and lakes.

Xia Jianzhao felt that instead of saying that Gu Yan understood men's thoughts very well, it would be better to say that she understood Nan Xun's thoughts very well.

What Gu Yan knew about Nan Xun's situation these years should be all she knew.

She can say such words to provoke, which shows that she has done her homework.

The humbleness Nan Xun suffered in the past is an unmentionable pain in his heart.

Those years were like being in dire straits for him. He seemed to be reborn from the ashes after a purgatory. Even though he stood on the Golden Temple because of his own brilliance, there was indeed no lack of her behind her. fueled the flames.

Gu Yan attributed all this to her in a high-profile manner, and said it outright in front of Nan Xun.
Xia Jianzhao was about to open his lips, but the young man took the topic first.

"The storyteller in Yanzhou is very detailed, but he also said that he missed some details. Remember to remind him to add them when you go back."

When Nan Xun said this, his eyes were full of colored glazes, and it seemed that he was not angered by Gu Yan's provocative words, but rather proud.

Xia Jianzhao looked up at him in bewilderment.

Why is his performance completely different from what she imagined?
At this moment, shouldn't he darken his face to show his displeasure?
Gu Yan obviously didn't expect Nan Xun to behave like this, she asked: "I don't know what details are missing, cousin, tell me."

"The king's beloved concubine is pregnant."

Hearing this, Xia Jianzhao's ears turned red.

What's there to brag about in such a thing?
But this sentence sounds ordinary to Xia Jianzhao, but it is very harsh to Gu Yan.

This sentence is obviously sandwiched with infinite pampering.

In her childhood memory, she had a deep-rooted impression of Nan Xun's coldness and rejection of others thousands of miles away.

How did a cousin like my cousin, who was as cold as frost and could not express himself, manage to be so pampering and tender to this woman?
Is it because she was pregnant with his flesh and blood, so he acted like this out of love for the child?

She felt that must be the reason.

She could no longer think of a second reason to explain this phenomenon.

She felt that he would not react instinctively because he liked this woman
Because there were rumors outside that Mu Wang treated Princess Mu as coldly as a sculpture of ice, and never gave him a good face.

After calming down the emotions in her heart, she smiled and said, "I didn't know my cousin was pregnant. Congratulations to my cousin."

Gu Yan's tone was as gentle as the smile on her face, harmless to humans and animals.
