C15 Never

Although Xie Ruoyun's mind was still in a daze upon hearing this, her body had mechanically walked out, and she had disappeared outside the courtyard door in a short while.

After Matriarch He saw that Xie Ruoyun had left, she turned to Xie Ningqian and said: "Little girl, Grandmother is very pleased today. You've finally learned how to protect yourself." With that, he patted Xie Ningqian's hand and left with Caiyun's aunt.

It turned out that my grandmother had already guessed that I was the one who was in charge of all this, and instead of blaming me, she was happy for me. At this moment, Xie Ningqian decided to filial piety towards her grandmother, Matriarch Xie.

Qing Ge saw that Xie Ningqian seemed to be deep in thought as he watched the matriarch's retreating back. He said with a pained heart, "Miss, the matriarch isn't being nice to you. Don't think too much about it, just quickly enter the house!" "You have never been in good health. Not only did you bask in the sun for a long time, you even knelt on the ground for a while. Don't get sick."

When Xie Ningqian heard this, she gathered her thoughts. As she walked into the house, she smiled and said, "How could it be so serious?"

After they sat inside the house, Xie Ningqian saw that there was no one else in the room other than herself and Qingge, so she whispered to Qingge: "In a while, change into a new outfit and secretly bring some silver to find a smart beggar on the street. Give him some silver, and let him spread the news of Xie Ruoyun and Murong Yuan to the entire capital."

Qing Ge said respectfully, "Yes, Miss. This servant will prepare them now." Although her young mistress had changed a lot during this period of time, this was what these servants wished for her to do. In the past decade, her young miss had suffered a lot, and she had seen it all with her own eyes. Now that her young miss had learned to protect her, she naturally followed her orders.

Four hours later, Qingge returned with a bag of osmanthus cake.

As Qingge bowed to Xie Ningqian, she respectfully said, "Miss, this matter has been settled. Qingge even specially brought you a package of ten-li long osmanthus cake, would you like to try it?" After saying that, he undid the cinnamon cake on the cake plate on the table.

Seeing that, Xie Ningqian asked worriedly, "How long did you stay on the street? Did anyone notice you? "

Not only was Qing Ge out on business, he had also stayed on the streets for a long time. He actually went to the west side of the Li Residence to buy osmanthus cake. He couldn't help but worry about Xie Ningqian's detection.

Even though he had been reborn and had experienced a lot of things, his reputation and the like did not matter much anymore. However, if someone else really got a hold of her, it would be a troublesome matter.

When Qingge heard this, she confidently said, "In the direction of the young lady, Qingge is disguised as Madame Bai's head maid, Ziwei. No one will be able to recognize her."

"Very good!" Then, she picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and began to taste it. Sure enough, the Ten Li osmanthus cake was quite tasty. As a person who had lived two lifetimes, she couldn't help but praise it.

After never getting the chance to marry Murong Yuan again, Xie Ningqian turned to Qingge who was beside her and said in a good mood, "Qingge, later on, let's go out and see the results!"

This was his first counterattack since his rebirth. He had only been protecting himself in the past, but now he had to check and accept the result. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so happy!

Two quarters of an hour later, Xie Ningqian brought Qingge out to the streets. As soon as they stepped foot on the streets, they saw groups upon groups of people gathered together, discussing the secrets behind the events in the Duke's Mansion.

A woman in her early twenties said to her companion in a shrill, mocking voice, "Do you know of any secrets that have occurred in this afternoon's famous Duke of Guo's estate?"

"You don't know?" What's wrong? Quick, tell me about it! " The other woman, who was in her early twenties, led her child and returned curiously.

"Everyone says that the Wealthy Class has a lot to talk about, and now even the tea shop's storyteller is talking about it!" The woman said in a dispirited manner, but she did not immediately continue.

The woman was impatient and said anxiously, "Hurry up, don't keep us in suspense. What happened?"

"It seems like you really do not know. I thought you purposely said you did not know, so you did not immediately continue." The woman said embarrassedly, "It's about the secret affair between the Duke of Guo's household's Third Miss Xie Ruoyun and the Golden Champion, Murong Yuan. I heard that this Minister Murong Yuan wrote many love poems for Third Miss, and gave them to Third Miss as a paper dragonfly!"

"How romantic!" The woman said in envy.

As if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her, the woman immediately scolded, "Romantic my ass. When this third young miss saw that the matter had been exposed, she not only refused to admit that she had seduced Murong Yuan, but she also framed the first young lady, Xie Ningqian, saying that she and Murong Yuan had an affair."

"This... I really have let down the love of the top scorer, Murong Yuan. " The woman said rather sorrowfully.

The woman immediately said with a weird tone, "A total infatuation? "If it wasn't for the fact that he wants to climb the ranks of the State Duke's Mansion, which man would be willing to be seduced by a little concubine? It's just that this Minister Yuan wants to melt his wealth."

"You … How do you know so much? " the woman asked in surprise as she stared at the woman's armor.

"Sigh, how would I know so much? I was just helping out in the restaurant and listening to the storyteller inside. Otherwise, how would a woman like me know about the secret of the noble residence?" The woman said humbly.

"Oh, oh, oh!" Although the woman was still shocked, she nodded in agreement.

Xie Ningqian turned and walked towards the tea shop in front of her when she heard this. Coincidentally, she was also thirsty, so she decided to drink a cup of tea while listening to the story of Xie Ruoyun and Murong Yuan.

When they arrived at the teahouse, Xie Ningqian found a corner and sat down. She ordered a pot of Verdant Spring and prepared to listen to the storyteller's story. After a few sips of tea, a quarter of an hour passed. The storyteller spoke exactly as the two women on the street had said, but it was more official and less explicit.

Just as she was about to leave, she saw An Zizhao, the son of the Marquis of the first rank, and Xiao Rui Yi, the "Ghost King", walk towards her. She sat back down, if she left now, Xiao Rui would not know how to deal with her! She had seen his abilities, so she had to wait until the two of them were about half a foot from her table before she stood up and bowed to them.

Once An ZIhao saw Xie Ningqian bowing to him, he immediately said gently, "Ningqian, why are you here? Are you here to hear about the book? Sit down, don't stand. "

Xie Ningqian smiled and said, "Ning Qian thanks the crown prince." She looked at Xiao Rui Yi. With him around, she wouldn't dare to sit down on her own, or else in his eyes, she would do as she pleased. She didn't know how to deal with him!
