Gu Yunxiao was confident in her ability. After all, Gu Yunyan had a devastatingly beautiful appearance for more than ten years, but when she fought with Xiao Xilin, she almost couldn't hold it back, not to mention those young girls raised in a deep room.

The outside of the carriage was spacious, and the inside was exquisite and comfortable.

It was covered with a thick carpet, and it was obvious that it was made from a piece of snow-white tiger skin. A green jade tea set was placed on top of the wooden table. It was in a pure color and extremely watery. It seemed to be made from a piece of jade. There were two books scattered at the side, and Gu Yunxiao could tell with a glance that this was a rare solitaire on the zither.

At first glance, these things did not seem luxurious, as if they belonged to an ordinary noble young master. However, if one took a closer look, they would find that each and every one of them were of the highest quality. Not only were their prices extremely high, they were also rare treasures.

Liu Xu did not have that kind of eyesight, but she was still sitting upright and still, not moving at all, afraid that she would dirty the blanket. Even her breathing could not help but lighten a little.

After only a quarter of an hour, Gu Yunxiaoxin was itching to take a look at the zither music, but she knew she couldn't touch it.

After she got off, she looked at the carriage leaving, and was relieved. She patted her chest and said: "Such a luxurious carriage, although it is comfortable, but it still makes me tremble with fear."

Gu Yunxiao laughed and blinked, saying, "It's rare for me to make use of this chance to get into this carriage. It's not like this trip was in vain."

Seeing the two get off the carriage, the gatekeeper's wife quickly came out to welcome them. Liu Xu asked: "Old Master, Eldest Young Master and Second Miss are back?"

The gatekeeper's wife nodded. "Miss. Master went to his study when he returned. Eldest Young Master and Second Miss are in the parlour."

Hearing this, Liu Xu fell two steps behind, quietly stuffing a bag into her hand. The gatekeeper's wife understood and quickly retreated after whispering a few words to her in a low voice.

The Second Miss went on a rampage in the parlour, breaking a porcelain bottle and a tea set. The Eldest Young Master tried to persuade her, but it was only after a few words of advice that she returned to the compound," Liu Xu reported in a low voice.

"Do you know why?" Gu Yunxiao was puzzled. What was the temper of the perfectly fine Gu Yunyan?

Liu Xu shook her head. No matter how well-informed the gatekeeper's wife was, she still didn't dare to go too close to the parlour and eavesdrop on her master's private affairs.

Gu Yunxiao understood and thought about how her face, which was covered in thick makeup, was sticky and uncomfortable right now. She decided to go back to her Fragrant Lotus Yard to wash it off.

Halfway there, I met Gu Xuanyi who came out of the parlour. He seemed to be shocked when he saw her and apologized, "It's my brother who is in the wrong, Yan is not feeling well. Father and I sent her back but I forgot about Third Sister."

He could even forget his sister, but this big brother couldn't even be bothered to think of an excuse.

However, when Gu Yunxiao saw his frown and his obvious absent-mindedness, she couldn't help but be curious. This big brother didn't care about anything, so what was he worrying about?

"Big Brother, what happened at home? The poetry meet is not over yet, why did you return in such a hurry?"

Gu Xuanyi shook his head and sighed, "It's hard to explain everything …"

Gu Yunxiao's eyelids jumped. Was he not going to tell her?

Unexpectedly, Gu Xuanyi looked at her and suddenly asked, "Third sister, if there is someone else in our family to share your burden …"

Gu Yunxiao was shocked and couldn't help but secretly size up Gu Xuanyi. Could it be that her brother was preparing to take her as a concubine?

A noble concubine didn't have the right to share Yan Zixin's burden, so was she still marrying an equal wife?

There was something wrong with her eyes. Yan Zixin was not a pushover. If Gu Xuanyi were to get married again, she would be the first one to refuse. She was afraid that she would have to pack up her bag and go back to her parents' house and fight to the death with him.

However, he couldn't tell that Gu Xuanyi, who was usually serious, didn't have any contact with anyone. If he wasn't going to the Crown Prince, he would go back to the palace.

Who knew that in the blink of an eye, he would have brought the other women back?
