Zhu pulled the master's sleeve and stared at him with burning eyes.

When the twelfth prince ascended the throne, Governor Xiao became the regent, above the emperor and second only to ten thousand others.

Among the noble families who stayed in Yandu, who wouldn't want to have some friendship with Governor Xiao's Mansion?

Marquis Yong En took the cup of strong tea poured by the maid, took two sips, and then slowly said: "Yuefang, his second son is engaged to our Yuefang."

"Although he is a bastard of the Xiao family, he is still a popular commodity now. Yuefang is marrying up." Although she said this, the wife of Marquis Yong'en couldn't stop smiling. It was worth it for a bastard to marry into the Xiao family.

After finishing the tea in his hand, Marquis Yong En said, "Pick out some candidates tomorrow and send more people to Wuzhou to send Ranhua to the Prince of Han's Mansion in Yizhou City. Along the way, make sure to send her there in a grand manner."

"What!" Zhu screamed, "Why are you bringing up that girl for no reason?"

He had received 50,000 taels of silver in the beginning. Now that he was involved in this matter, would the silver fall from the sky and be returned to his family?

No!

Marquis Yong En glanced at her and said, "You woman, what do you know? Governor Xiao said today that the three families of Xiao, Feng and Han are in-laws, so naturally we should have more exchanges."

"Do you think that the Xiao family would be interested in our dilapidated mansion for no reason? That's because of the Han Palace. He wants to win over the Han Palace and get the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in his hands."

Zhu clutched the silk and said worriedly, "When the Han Palace gave us the money, the two families had already agreed that the Han Palace would not recognize that dead girl as his legal wife, and we also agreed to let the Han Palace deal with it. Now where did you get the face to deliver it to us in such a grand manner?"

Yong En Hou was calm and composed, tapping the mahogany tabletop with his five fingers like playing a tune. "Things are different now. Commander Xiao said he would help us with the money, and he will send someone to accompany us on this trip to Yizhou."

"We were in the right back then. Ran Hua entered the Han Wang Mansion to celebrate the wedding, and then the news came from the border that the King of Han was well."

"No matter what, it is our Feng family's kindness that sent him to his front door with the red flower bridge. How can we just say we don't recognize him?"

"Okay!" Zhu agreed readily.

The family doesn't have to spend any money to care about the life or death of that dead girl.

New Year's Eve.

At the gate of Prince Han’s Palace in Yizhou.

More than a dozen carriages stopped, and the first to get off was a middle-aged woman, who was Aunt Que.

The gatekeeper of Prince Han's mansion had already gone in to report.

Soon, a young girl wearing a goose yellow soft smoke silk dress and a white cloak came out. She had a fair face and was fresh and lovely.

"elder brother!"

"elder brother!"

"My princess, please slow down." The first person to get off the carriage was Aunt Que, who was wearing a simple navy blue dress and only a green jade bracelet.

"Aunt Que, I miss you. Where's my brother?" The pretty girl walked over in small steps and took Aunt Que's arm.

Auntie Que held Princess Zhaoyang's hand tightly and said, "I've been away for more than half a year, and your little face has become thinner."

Princess Zhaoyang giggled, "Well, I've grown taller, and the master has dropped off new clothes for me."

After saying this, he looked around at the convoy.

At this time, a girl in a beautiful red cloak got out of the second car. She had willow-shaped eyebrows, thin eyes, and a protruding belly that was extremely conspicuous.

Princess Zhaoyang's attention was quickly attracted by her belly and she stared at it without blinking.

Xie Longyi walked towards Princess Zhaoyang with a friendly expression, "Hello, Princess Zhaoyang."

"Xie Longyi?" Princess Zhaoyang asked with a blink.

Aunt Que smiled softly and explained, "Our Zhaoyang met Miss Xie in Yandu in the past and still remembers her clearly."

Xie Longyi smiled at Princess Zhaoyang in a friendly manner, "Longyi vaguely remembers that when Zhaoyang was a child, she was very cute and all the ladies rushed to hold her."

Princess Zhaoyang pouted, whoever brought up the four or five things.

Aunt Cui smiled even more:

"Zhaoyang, Miss Xie is too ill to go back to Lingqiu, so she has been staying at the small palace at Xiamen Pass. It's New Year's Day now, and she's all alone, so I'll take her back to Yizhou so we can have some fun together."

It’s just as my brother expected.

"Oh." Princess Zhaoyang showed a perfect smile on her face, and her words were distant. "Welcome Miss Xie to visit my Yizhou. You can stay here with peace of mind."

Like a little adult, he turned around and made arrangements.

"Sha'er, go find the second steward and ask him to take Miss Xie's attendants to deliver the luggage to Wanyuan on Taiyuan Street first."

Aunt Que was embarrassed, and she pulled Princess Zhaoyang over and said softly, "Zhao Zhao, why are you arranging people to Wanyuan? It's two streets away from our Prince Han's Mansion.

There are many vacant courtyards in our mansion, just choose one."

Princess Zhaoyang smiled sweetly and said, "Don't worry, Aunt Que. We in the Prince Han Mansion will definitely do our best to be the best hosts and take good care of Miss Xie."

"If Miss Xie were to stay alone in our Prince Han's mansion, it would be fine. However... Miss Xie's status is different now. If she were to stay in our mansion, she might cause criticism."

As she spoke, her pretty little face glanced at Xie Longyi's belly.

Not just one person, yes, there is also a baby of unknown origin in her belly.

Aunt Que smiled awkwardly. After not seeing him for half a year, Zhaozhao could now take care of the housework.

She wanted to say a few more words of advice, but seeing that there were many people outside the gate watching the fun, she decided not to talk about matters concerning the reputation of the Prince Han's Mansion.

Xie Longyi's face stiffened slightly, and a dark look flashed in her eyes. She found that Princess Zhaoyang was looking at her with clear eyes.

After a moment, she pulled herself out of her embarrassment and smiled softly, "Princess Zhaoyang has made the arrangements. I'm sorry to bother Long Yi this time.

Then Long Yi followed me back to Wanyuan and came to visit after washing up."

Princess Zhaoyang put her hands behind her back and nodded, "Okay. I'll send a note to Miss Xie and cook some suitable dishes for her."

Post a message? This is a polite way of declining your visit.

Xie Longyi clutched the handkerchief in her hand, and her smile became more and more unnatural.

After the second steward took Xie Longyi away.

Aunt Que couldn't wait and whispered, "Zhao Zhao, Miss Xie is pregnant with our Han family's heir, how can we let her live outside?"

Princess Zhaoyang pouted and shook her head, saying, "No, my brother wrote to us and told us that we must not get involved with the Xie family. By the way, where is my brother? Why didn't you come back with me?"

Aunt Que seemed to be thinking about something, wondering if this baby of Miss Xie's was really not Jinyan's, and she responded casually.

"Jinyan, he said he went to seek medical treatment and hasn't come back yet."

Princess Zhaoyang was unhappy and muttered, "Are you accompanying father? You didn't even take me with you."

Her eyes rolled immediately and she said, "Okay, if they don't take me with them, I'll go find my brother by myself."

Taiyuan Street, Wanyuan.

"Miss, please walk slowly. You are pregnant with a baby." While Chunhong and Chunqiao were carrying their luggage, they saw the young lady walking quickly into the yard.

Xie Longyi walked straight to the main courtyard and looked around coldly. The courtyard had not been occupied for a long time, so it was clean.

She sat in the seat of honor with a gloomy look on her face, and her expression became grim when she thought of being turned away.

He clenched his fist angrily and slammed it on the table.

"A yellow-haired girl dares to bully others."
