He galloped all the way, and even though the dew was cold late at night, cold sweat had already emerged from Shi Eucao's forehead.

Fortunately, Li Yong finally stopped ahead, which made Shi An breath a lot of relief, and his heart was slightly fulfilled.

He raised his head and saw that they had arrived here unknowingly.

In front, the courtyard is deep, the red lacquer and nine nail doors are closed. In the night wind, two lanterns sway gently. The dizzy light reflects the four big characters of the Duke of Ding on the plaque with great clarity.

"Your Highness?" Seeing that Li Yong just stopped the horse, he looked at the gate of the Duke Dingguo Mansion opposite the street, without saying a word or making any moves. Shi Yan drove forward and called softly.

Li Yong blinked and came to his senses, but did not respond.

Shi An pondered for a moment, then hesitated, "Or... I think about it, there will always be a way..." Whether it is sending a message or trying to see Miss Xie Qi, there is actually no way, but his highness always thinks and asks for willingness. In fact, why bother? It's just to make things difficult for me.

Li Yong suddenly turned his horse's head and said, "Let's go!"

"Your Highness?" Shi An was puzzled. His Highness drank and came here with Ye Feng. Wasn't it just because he couldn't let go? Why did he suddenly do nothing and was about to leave? Did he spend so much time just to come here to take a look?

Li Yong did not care about him. When he was a Tathagata, he clamped his legs and shouted "Hi" lightly. Each person and a horse ran like an arrow away from the strings of the night.

Shi An naturally did not dare to delay and quickly chased after him.

In the deep courtyard, it was a sleepless night tonight. Even though it was late at night, many courtyards were still on and the lights were brightly lit.

Xie Xuan washed up early, but she had not yet slept. She changed into a house-like clothes and nested on the big kang by the window. She was covered with a thin quilt that Madam Li insisted on letting her cover, and the lights and shadows of the candlestick lights were flashing and dark, but she was staring at the letter she put in the box earlier.

"Why are these three masters really leaving?"

The people in Xie Xuan's house did not rest. They were busy, but Xie Xuan had just instructed them to pick some suitable items from her small warehouse and give them to Mr. Xie San's family who was about to leave Beijing and return home.

While picking, Zhuxi asked in surprise.

"It is said that it was a time that was promising early in the morning, so it is probably not good to change it at will. Therefore, the third master's intention is to set off according to the original date." The day when Mr. Xie San's family set off was already decided, just two days later, the day before the palace banquet.

Lianlong opened a brocade box with quick hands and feet, and asked softly while putting the thing on Mama Li for her to see.

"But... Isn't this the emperor's eyes holding a banquet to welcome our princess? All of our entire mansions can go to the palace to attend the banquet." Although he grew up in the Duke Dingguo Mansion since childhood, Zhuxi has long been accustomed to the grace received by the Duke Dingguo Mansion, but this Duke Dingguo Mansion was invited to the palace to attend the banquet, it was probably a huge capital, and their Duke Dingguo Mansion was unique, so why didn't Zhuxi be proud of it!

Madam Li saw what was in the brocade box and nodded to Lianlong. The latter understood, took the box and covered it, moved the box to the Eight Immortals table beside her, stacked it on several brocade boxes that had been placed there, and then picked up the small tube of sheep hair on the inkstone.

Cut off the item in the booklet, write it at the back and when and whom it was given to. Finally, write it on the gift list prepared for Mr. Xie San's family.

When Xie Xuan was already talking to the people, she took the letter back into the box, supported her chin with one hand, and leaned on the kang table to listen to them.

Seeing Lianlong doing things carefully, he couldn't help but nod in his heart. Lianlong was the eldest girl whom her mother chose for her early in the morning. She was placed in front of her mother early in the morning. She was trained by Nanny Lin for many years. She only came to her side to serve her when she was ten years old. In this way, Zhuxi, who is also the first-class eldest girl, is indeed much worse than her.

In this regard, Xie Xuan has to admit that her mother is really an amazing CEO.

Mama Li and Lianlong were working, but Zhuxi was still thinking about this matter next to him, and couldn't help but ask again, "You said... the third master's family shouldn't really have a rift with our room, so that's why..."

"Zhuxi!" Madam Li couldn't bear it anymore, and finally interrupted her, saying sarcastically, "These things are all the things that you should ask and discuss behind the scenes? You have been with the girl for so many years. The girl is never stingy. The girl is generous to others, but you have to always be alert to yourself, take care of the girl's dignity, do whatever you should do, and say or not, you must know everything in your heart, and you must be careful in your words and actions."

Zhuxi was already shocked when Madam Li called her with a warning and reacted, and quickly lowered her head and listened to Madam Li's speech. No matter what she thought, she looked like she was being taught.

Seeing this, Xie Xuan couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Did she take it too generous? Xie Xuan sighed, probably not. Perhaps as Mrs. Xiao said, she was careless!

But, why? It's really caused by nature?

Xie Xuan remembers that this was not the case in her previous life.

She just came halfway through. Although she seemed to have accepted this absurd things, she actually regarded herself as an outsider in her bones. She couldn't integrate herself into this place, so she watched everything coldly and offered herself a wish to be a rice insect in her heart. Even now, it was because of the rise and fall of the Duke Dingguo Mansion, which was closely related to her, that she became a little concerned. Is she... too cold?

Regarding Mr. Xie San's insistence on setting off on the original date, Zhuxi is naturally not the only one who is talking about behind the scenes.

Even outside the mansion, those who receive the news are not without gossip.

Most of the time, the second and third bedrooms of the Xie family really turned against each other, but they didn't even give the face to their nephew who had not returned home for many years, and refused to attend the welcome banquet set up by the emperor, so they left.

But no matter how others talked about it, Mr. Xie San turned a deaf ear this time and was determined to do so. After packing up his luggage, he went to the ancestral hall to put on incense sticks as planned, and said goodbye to Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Xiao, and took his wife and children to the car. The carriage was rumbling and left the Duke Dingguo Mansion.

Xie Heng and Xie Yan sent him all the way out, leaving the city, and only drank the farewell wine until the ten-mile long pavilion. The uncle and nephew passed by.

Xie Kun looked a little unhappy, wondering if it was because none of his friends came to see him off or because of others.

Mr. Xie San was so cool, but when he looked at his two nephews, his expression was still a little calm. He took care of him with thousands of words and then got on the carriage again.
