The heavy snow fell for three days before it stopped, and the eaves and roofs were covered with a thick layer of snow.

It has been snowing heavily these days, so Yu Guiwan simply stayed in the house and didn't go out.

"Princess, His Highness has something important to discuss with you." Bei Chu reported outside the house.

Yu Guiwan knew that it must be something important, otherwise Xie Sui would not have specially called her over.

She immediately stood up, took her cloak and followed Bei Chuwang to Xie Sui's teahouse.

When she arrived, Xie Sui and Wei Heng were playing chess again. She found that Xie Sui always pulled Wei Heng to play chess with him, but she had seen Wei Heng's chess skills twice and it was really hard to describe.

Just as she arrived at the tea room, she heard Wei Heng complaining again, "I lost. I'm not playing anymore. I'm not playing anymore."

Xie Sui placed a piece down and said slowly, "The outcome hasn't been decided yet, so there's no need to rush into conclusions."

Wei Heng didn't believe what Xie Sui said. He seemed gentle and refined on the surface, but he was actually a dark person behind the scenes.

Maybe it's another trap to lure him into the trap, and then we can catch him in one fell swoop.

Yu Guiwan walked to Wei Heng's side at some point, picked up a white jade chess piece and placed it in a certain position.

When Xie Sui saw Yu Guiwan coming over, the look in his eyes softened a lot.

Wei Heng looked down at the chessboard carefully for a long time, and when he looked up again, the look in his eyes when he looked at Yu Guiwan was different.

This move undoubtedly saved the game!

When Wei Heng saw Yu Guiwan at this moment, he felt like he had seen a savior, and quickly stood up and gave his seat to Yu Guiwan.

Xie Sui placed a piece right after him, and Yu Guiwan placed another piece without even thinking.

The two fought back and forth. After Yu Guiwan made a few more moves, even Wei Heng couldn't help but frown and sigh, "Alas, it seems I'm going to lose again."

"Who said that?"

Yu Guiwan raised his eyebrows, and a chess piece fell on the upper right.

Before Wei Heng could react, Xie Sui spoke: "I lost." He placed two pieces on the chessboard.

"what?!"

Wei Heng stared at the chessboard with a look of disbelief.

She quickly calculated her win and loss, "I didn't win much, only half a point."

"It's mainly because the shit he threw earlier was too smelly." Xie Sui said.

When Wei Heng heard what Xie Sui meant, he was speechless. There was no need to praise one and criticize the other!

"By the way, what is the matter that Your Highness called me here for?" Yu Guiwan then remembered the important matter.

"Xie Yunqi has made another move. According to the news, his next move is to frame the Yu family for treason." Xie Sui put away the chess pieces before speaking to Yu Guiwan.

"Remember to send a message back, telling everyone in the Yu Mansion to be careful these days and not to meet anyone they shouldn't."

Yu Guiwan nodded, his eyes darkening a little.

It was this trick again. In his previous life, Xie Yunqi joined forces with the Shen family and used this trick to massacre the entire Yu family.

I didn't expect that he would dare to use this trick in this life.

Just as she was about to leave the teahouse, she heard Xie Sui's voice behind her, "By the way, be careful when you're enjoying the snow tomorrow. If you feel uncomfortable staying here, just leave."

Three days ago, when it just snowed, the wife of the Yongxuan Marquis sent out an invitation to the ladies in Beijing to go to the Meilin Courtyard in the suburbs to enjoy the snow and plum blossoms.

Since Marquis Yongxuan had some friendship with her father, she still had to go.

After returning to the house, she wrote a letter and gave it to Fuqiu, asking her to deliver it to the Yu Mansion immediately. The letter specifically instructed them to be on guard against the Shen family and that if the Shen family came to the house, they must not see them or let them in.

In their previous life, they were too close to the Shen family, and they didn't even know when they hid the evidence of treason in the Yu Mansion.

*

This was her first time stepping into Meilin Courtyard. In her previous life, the Marquise Yongxuan had also sent an invitation once, but she happened to be unwell at that time and rejected the invitation, which made the Marquise Yongxuan feel resentful towards her.

Now that she thought about it, Shen Yunmiao brought her some cakes from time to time during that period, and she thought there were drugs in them, but she didn't suspect it at all.

In her previous life, she was so stupid.

"Princess Chen has arrived—"

The servants outside the courtyard sang loudly, and the Marquise of Yongxuan, who was talking to someone not far away, immediately came over to greet them.

"Meet Princess Chen."

Everyone said in unison.

"Madam, please get up quickly." Yu Gui took a few steps forward, helped the person up, and asked, "I wonder how the Marquis is doing?"

"It's still the same. It's amazing that Princess still remembers it." Qiao Shuang sighed lightly.

"Today I specially brought some prescriptions for health care for Madam." After Yu Guiwan finished speaking, Fuqiu handed over a box containing the prescription.

Qiao Shuang quickly asked someone to accept the prescription. Everyone in the capital knew that Yu Guiwan was Master Chu Yue's apprentice. Qiao Shuang's tone towards Yu Guiwan was also much more intimate. "Thank you so much, Princess."

"You're welcome, Madam. My mother even asked me to say hello to you."

"How is your brother? I heard he was injured?" Qiao Shuang then remembered that when the Yu Mansion sent someone to reject the invitation, they said that the eldest son was ill and Madam Yu had to take care of him at home.

"It's much better."

The two of them chatted with each other and soon brought Yu Guiwan to the crowd. Qiao Shuang kept praising Yu Guiwan.

Ever since everyone knew that Yu Guiwan was Master Chu Yue's disciple, their attitudes had changed drastically, but these people just surrounded her and said some flattering words.

Yu Guiwan could only deal with it.

"Princess Ping has arrived—"

There was a loud shout at the gate of the courtyard, and everyone who heard the voice bowed towards the gate, except Yu Guiwan, who stood straight.

"Meet Princess Ping."

Fu Yan deliberately wore bright clothes today in order to outshine Yu Guiwan. When she came in, she saw where Yu Guiwan was at the first sight.

Yu Guiwan was wearing blue today. Such an elegant color appeared at the banquet, but in Fu Yan's opinion, it was too petty.

"Everyone, please stand up."

Although Fu Yan disliked Yu Guiwan, he still had to respect her in public, so he walked up to Yu Guiwan and said, "Greetings, Auntie."

"No need to be so polite." Yu Guiwan felt that the look in Fu Yan's eyes when he looked at her today was a little more hostile than last time.

When Qiao Shuang saw that everyone was present, she called out, "Please follow me inside. I've prepared some hot tea and snacks in the courtyard. The red plum blossoms over there are in full bloom, perfect for admiring."

Fu Yan saw Mrs. Fu and walked past Yu Guiwan and went inside.

Yu Guiwan was a little tired of dealing with it, so he found a corner to sit down and appreciate the plum blossoms.

Not long after sitting down, Xia Lu, who was beside Fu Yan, came over.

"Greetings, Princess Chen. My princess would like to invite you over to sit down."

Yu Guiwan glanced in Fu Yan's direction and found that Fu Yan was also looking at her with a smile on his face, as if inviting her over.

She also smiled back at Fu Yan, then stood up and walked towards Fu Yan.

She wanted to see what Fu Yan wanted to do.
