Xi Chuyu struggled a lot, but in the end, she still didn't dare to keep Qiuxiang by her side because she was worried that Xi Qingyan would realize that Qiuxiang was her mother's spy in Hanlian Garden.

"Xi Qingyan, Miss Ben, you don't need to use them. I think they are just as dirty as you!"

"Second young lady, how can you say this to our young lady?"

When Chuntao heard that someone was slandering Miss Xi, she quickly refuted.

"It's okay for us servants to suffer a little insult from you. Why do you insult our young lady?"

"Today, all the food and drink expenses in the House of the Minister of Rites are handled by my eldest lady alone. You eat and use our lady's food, and our lady is still your eldest sister. You are so rude.

, are you not afraid of losing the face of the Minister of Rites?"

"Little Hoof, when I'm talking to your master, there's no way for you to interrupt! I tell you, one day I will deal with you severely!"

Xi Chuyu just wanted to ask the maid next to her to touch Chuntao's mouth. When she raised her head, she saw Xi Qingyan looking at her with a half-smile.

Somehow, Xi Chuyu felt that Xi Qingyan's smiling face made her panic.

So, she swallowed her breath and sat back in her carriage.

"You little hooves with a bad mouth, you can slander me! Look at how I will make your life worse than death after your master Xi Qingyan dies!"

Xi Chuyu sat in the carriage and cursed Chuntao in a low voice.

As long as she does what she needs to do today, she will not only be able to get rid of Xi Qingyan, a thorn in the side, but she can also become Su Yiting's princess!

Last time at the palace banquet, all the noble ladies from the aristocratic families mocked her and her mother. After today, Xi Chuyu let those people know how powerful she is!

Xi Chuyu was in her carriage, imagining the wonderful days after her mother took back the power of the Shangshu Mansion and she became Princess Su Yiting.

On the other hand, Xi Qingyan was in the carriage, looking at the account books of the tenants in boredom.

"Miss, this carriage keeps swinging back and forth, and you are still staring at these account books. This is very bad for your eyes."

Chuntao looked at the dark circles under Xi Qingyan's eyelids and couldn't help but express concern.

"Miss, don't worry. The second lady is coming with us this time. This lady will definitely not dare to make trouble on the road. You can rest peacefully in this carriage for a while. When you get to the tenants in the suburbs of Beijing, there will naturally be a house in the house.

The old man is helping you, young lady."

Chuntao thought that now that the eldest lady had taken the second lady Xi Chuyu to the outskirts of Beijing, Mrs. Shangshu would not do anything to them.

"Chuntao, you girl is really stupid. Xi Chuyu is not our shield. She did not come here this time to learn how to deal with matters in the Shangshu Mansion."

Seeing Chuntao's innocence, Xi Qingyan smiled and pointed it out.

"Miss, are you saying that the madam and the second lady are still targeting us?"

"In my opinion, Xi Chuyu and the others not only want to target us, she also wants to leave Kyoto and meet her sweetheart!"

The Divine Medical Pavilion's business in Kyoto is getting bigger and bigger, so the news it receives on weekdays is becoming more and more informed.

Not long ago, the Royal Hospital in the suburbs of Beijing went to the Divine Medical Pavilion to seek medicine. Those medicines were all excellent sore medicines, specially designed to treat bruises and injuries.

The steward of the Divine Medical Pavilion saw that the Imperial Court was purchasing such a large amount of the high-quality gold sore medicine from their store, so he reported the news to Xi Qingyan.

Xi Qingyan also found it strange, so she asked someone to investigate.

Now she knows a lot about what happened in the Royal Courtyard on the outskirts of Beijing.

"My sweetheart?! Eldest lady, haven't the second ladies never left the government? How come a sweetheart suddenly appears?"

Chuntao was shocked after hearing this.

She looked around the carriage, and after seeing that the headless person was eavesdropping, she cautiously asked the eldest lady.

"Miss, could it be... could it be that this second lady is going out to the outskirts of the capital to have a... private... private meeting with her sweetheart?"

Chuntao was an inexperienced girl, so she was very shy when mentioning this matter.

"Private meeting? Maybe the second lady of our Shangshu Mansion is thinking about a private meeting, but her sweetheart is not thinking about such romantic things!"

Xi Qingyan sneered and pointedly said.

Her people investigated and discovered that the Royal Courtyard was occupied by His Majesty His Majesty Su Yiting. At the last Qiqiao Festival palace banquet, anyone with a discerning eye could see that His Majesty Su Yiting and the noble Narui must have had a very different relationship.

As a son, he slept with his father's concubine.

For such an unethical thing, Xi Qingyan thought that Su Yiting would be severely punished. Unexpectedly, in the end, His Majesty just downplayed it and punished Su Yiting with solitary confinement.

This kind of punishment is really too light.

However, His Highness Su Yiting, who was favored by His Majesty, did not calm down even though he was in confinement in the Royal Courtyard.

The golden sore medicine His Highness Su Yiting bought that day was enough for an army of more than 5,000 people...

When Xi Qingyan heard this, a strange feeling flashed in her heart. This Su Yiting might not be as simple as she saw...

However, she was not prepared to tell her speculation to Xi Chuyu, who was obsessed with marrying into the royal family.

Let Xi Chuyu do the hard work!

There are some beatings in this world that you have to experience personally. What's more, she and Xi Chuyu are not sisters whose blood is thicker than water.

When she woke up in this different world that day, the fatal wound on her body was given by Xi Chuyu!

After an hour of bumpy ride, the carriage of Shangshu Mansion finally arrived at the outskirts of Beijing.

"Miss, we're here, I'll help you get out of the car!"

Chuntao got off the carriage first and carefully supported Xi Qingyan.

"Qiuxiang, if you don't help the second young lady, if she really falls, we will suffer nothing!"

Xi Qingyan deliberately joked to Qiuxiang in front.

"Miss, Qiuxiang... Qiuxiang is from Hanliyuan. If the eldest miss wants me to help the second miss, then... then I will go!"

Qiuxiang watched the second young lady in rich and exaggerated clothes get out of the carriage with difficulty. When she wanted to help, Xi Qingyan suddenly spoke.

So she could only pretend to be coy and wanted to help Xi Chuyu under the guise of Xi Qingyan.

"You don't have to come over! No, you should stay away from me!"

Xi Chuyu yelled at Qiuxiang directly.

"Xi Qingyan, this place is so desolate, there's not even a place to rest. I'm dying of thirst now. I don't want to go to some random rent collector with you! I want to find a place to sit down and rest!"

Xi Chuyu took a look at the surrounding environment. When she raised her eyes and saw the Royal Courtyard not far from here, she deliberately said pickyly.

"Xi Chuyu, you rode a carriage all the way here. Those who followed the carriage didn't feel tired, but you are here saying that you are tired. Don't you think what you said is funny?"

Xi Qingyan saw through Xi Chuyu's thoughts and sneered.

"You need to take care of my affairs!"

"I am the second young lady of the Xi family. They are all rough-skinned servants. Xi Qingyan, if you compare them with me, Xi Chuyu, what are you worried about?"

Xi Chuyu fought back without showing any signs of weakness.

"Xi Qingyan, don't you usually boast that you are the head of our Shangshu Mansion when you meet people? Today I just asked you to come to the suburbs of Beijing to collect rent. Is it possible that you can't do anything without me, your sister?

Already?"

Xi Chuyu didn't want Xi Qingyan to know her little thoughts, so she yelled at Xi Qingyan.

"Okay, Xi Chuyu, these are what you said. I, Xi Qingyan, can take these veterans from the government to go to the tenants to collect rent. Please don't tell others that I won't let you participate after you return to the government.

Come into this!"

What Xi Qingyan wants is these words from Xi Chuyu. As long as Xi Chuyu insists on having his own way, any problems Xi Chuyu encounters will have nothing to do with her!

"Yes, these are what I said!"

"I just don't like your Xi Qingyan! My feet are too tired and I can't walk! I don't want to go with you to see those *** tenants!"

"You guys have been serving Xi Chuyu since you were in Shangshu Mansion. Now that she won't leave here, just stay with her."

Xi Qingyan directly picked out Xi Chuyu's people and took her own people to collect the rent.

"Yes, Miss, we will definitely take good care of Miss Second!"

When Xi Chuyu saw Xi Qingyan walking away, she changed her wilted look just now. She got into the carriage again and gave orders to the carriage driver.

"Hurry up and catch the train, I am going to the Royal Courtyard! If anyone dares to tell anyone about this today, I will definitely take your heads!"

Xi Chuyu wanted to have a private meeting with Su Yiting, but for the sake of her reputation in Kyoto, she had to threaten the servants around her.

"Second Miss, this... this Royal Courtyard, without His Majesty's permission, no one can enter at all!"

Although the carriage driver also knew that he had to follow the arrangements of the second lady Xi Chuyu, Xi Chuyu's instructions were too difficult for him.

"Civilians within a five-mile radius of the Royal Courtyard are not even allowed to get close. If the villain's carriage goes a short distance ahead, the carriage will not be able to move."

"Second Miss, you can't enter the Royal Courtyard. Why don't I take Second Miss to rest somewhere else? What do you think, Second Miss?"

The carriage driver was very embarrassed. He patiently persuaded Xi Chuyu, hoping that the second lady of Shangshu Mansion would change her mind.

"no!"

"I just want to go to the Royal Courtyard! I tell you, you can't approach the Royal Courtyard, it doesn't mean that I can't approach it either!"

Xi Chuyu's purpose today is to meet His Highness Su Yiting. If she doesn't go to the Royal Courtyard, her trip today will be in vain!
