Princess Gui also looked at Jiang Xiyu distressedly, "Yes, if you need help, just ask, no need to be polite with us."

Madam Jiang had been very kind to them in the past. If Jiang Xiyu had any difficulties, Ningguo Mansion would definitely help.

Seeing that they all cared about her so much, Jiang Xiyu was very touched and said, "Thank you everyone, but for now I can still handle it. If I need your help in the future, I will shamelessly ask for it."

Princess Gui really felt sorry for her and said angrily, "Don't be so honest. You are the general's legitimate daughter after all. How could you let them bully you like this?"

You know, when she got married, General Jiang and the entire General Jiang's Mansion were given to her as a dowry. Now, those greedy people in the Yonglin Marquis Mansion have sucked it away, and there is probably nothing left.

Think about how smart and clever her mother, Madam Jiang, was. If Madam Jiang were still alive, how could she watch her being bullied like this in the Yonglin Marquis Mansion? She did not inherit Madam Jiang's decisive and murderous character, otherwise she would not have been bullied like this.

Knowing that they all treated her sincerely, Jiang Xiyu raised her eyes and said seriously, "Thank you, Princess, but I will definitely take back all my things."

Jiang Xiyu's solemn and cold eyes made Princess Gui dazed for a moment.

Suddenly I felt like I saw Mrs. Jiang from that year.

Originally, they looked somewhat similar, and the tone and expression she used when she spoke just now really resembled Mrs. Jiang.

Princess Yunling looked at Jiang Xiyu and suddenly laughed, "Aunt, don't worry about her. You haven't realized yet, but this flower viewing banquet today was specially arranged by Xiaoxi for her mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and those sisters-in-law. After the flower viewing banquet, do you think they dare to ask Xiaoxi to borrow things?"

"Definitely not." Princess Xumin said with a smile.

I am also very relieved that she finally came to her senses and no longer allowed herself to be bullied.

"Your Majesty is almost sober now. Let's go to the guest house to see the peach blossoms. I heard that my eldest sister planted many pink peach trees in the guest house. Now is the season for them to bloom. Let's go and enjoy them together."

After saying that, Princess Xumin led everyone to the guest house.

Hearing this, a gleam flashed in Jiang Xiyu's eyes, which Gulin caught just in time. His gaze also became a little deep, but he said nothing.

Guest house.

Xu Rong hid in the corner and watched Xu Rui holding the ancient curtain and entering a guest room.

After a while, Xu Rui walked out of the house.

Xu Rong was delighted and ordered Yuntun and Caiye beside her, "Caiye, hold my brother back and don't let him come back to the guest house. Yuntun, find a way to lure the princess and the county lady here."

"Yes."

The two of them turned around and left.

After they left, Xu Rong walked into the guest room cautiously.

The bed curtains in the room were drawn, and the situation inside could not be seen. Xu Rong's heart was pounding with nervousness. She looked in the direction of the bed, like a dog seeing a piece of fat meat, wishing she could pounce on it and bite it in her mouth.

He tiptoed to the bedside and pulled aside the bed curtain with a smile on his face.

Suddenly, her smile stopped and her face was full of disbelief. She thought she had seen it wrong. She blinked and saw that the bed was still empty, then she was sure that she was not seeing it wrong.

She clearly saw Xu Rui helping Gu Wei in, but where is he now?

Could it be that Gu Wei was drunk and was walking around the room?

The more Xu Rong thought about it, the more she felt that this was a possibility, so she turned around and planned to look in other corners of the room.

As she turned around, she bumped into a wall of flesh. Xu Rong slowly raised her eyes, but before she could see who was coming, she was knocked unconscious by someone.

With a "bang", Xu Rong fell to the ground with a loud noise.

Zhou Lai looked down at her, his eyes, which were originally filled with resentment, turned cheerful. He grabbed Xu Rong's collar with one hand and dragged her to the bed.

Deji, who had been guarding outside the guest room, saw Zhou Lai follow Xu Rong in. He thought something was wrong and immediately turned around to report to Xu Rui.

At this moment, Xu Rui was accompanying Gu Wei and the imperial concubine in the East Guest House of the mansion.

The Princess's Mansion has two guest houses, divided into the East and West Guest Houses.

Gu Wei was a little drunk before, so Xu Rui took her to the East Courtyard which was closer, and the imperial concubine naturally stayed by Gu Wei's side.

During the banquet, Xu Rui was worried about Xu Rong's behavior, so he asked Deji to keep an eye on her.

Seeing Deji coming, his face was full of anxiety. After greeting the imperial concubine, he retreated from the room and came to Deji. Deji whispered in his ear and told Xu Rui that Xu Rong had entered the guest room and Zhou Lai had followed in.

Xu Rui's face changed slightly. He had a bad feeling in his heart and felt that everything seemed out of his control.

After knowing that Xu Rui wanted to put drugs in Gu Wei's wine pot, he wanted to see what Xu Rong was trying to do, so he just acted out a scene, making her think that Gu Wei had entered the guest room. In fact, the person he supported was not Gu Wei, but Deji.

After he came out from the front, Deji flew out from the back window.

He originally thought that Xu Rong was innocent and wanted to plot against Gu Wei. She had wanted to be the Princess of Qin before, and now she probably wanted to enter the palace as a concubine. So she probably gave Gu Wei a love drug and sneaked into the room in the West Guest Courtyard, hoping to use such despicable means to enter the palace as a concubine.

He thought he had guessed Xu Rong's little thoughts clearly, so he wanted to use some tricks to teach her a lesson, but he never expected that Xu Rong was actually colluding with Zhou Lai.

Why did she call Zhou Lai into the room?

Is he trying to murder Gu Wei?

Xu Rui cursed Xu Rong in his heart, calling her an idiot who had no brains at all.

Their mansion had treated Zhou Lai so badly before, and he must have been thinking about how to take revenge on the Yonglin Marquisate for daring to collude with Zhou Lai.

The more he thought about it, the more Xu Rui couldn't stand it any longer. He walked quickly towards the west courtyard and told Deji to stay outside to guard the ancient curtain and the imperial concubine, and he went to the west courtyard himself.

As soon as he came out, he saw the leaves. Seeing Xu Rui's face full of anger, she was frightened and stepped forward to stop him, but as soon as she stepped forward, she was glared at by Xu Rui. Her mind went blank and she just stood there blankly.

Seeing Cai Ye appear here, he stepped forward and scolded with gritted teeth, "Why did Xu Rong drug His Majesty? What exactly does she want to do?"

Hearing this, Caiye raised her head in horror, a look of disbelief.

It’s over. Does Xu Rui know something?

Cai Ye was so scared that her legs went limp. She lowered her head and didn't dare to utter a word.

She didn't dare to deceive Xu Rui, but she didn't dare to betray Xu Rong even more.

She had seen the methods of both siblings and could not afford to offend either of them.

Xu Ruike didn't have time to waste with her. Seeing that she didn't say anything, he hurried to the west yard.
