After looking around, Xue Zuoxiang came up with an idea.

"Master Qiao, do you think this young marquis will also attend the Queen Mother's birthday banquet?"

"That's right! Lord Left Prime Minister wants to meet him in person? That's easy to arrange!" The female official responded with a smile. Fortunately, she had tied a knot again today.

"Yes! I won't feel at ease until I see it with my own eyes!"

Xue Zuoxiang was relieved, but Xue Qingqing seemed a little sulky. After all, she had never thought of coming to the imperial city for nothing today. What's more, she was determined to get the young marquis, so how could she let a fool snatch him away.

I couldn't help but bury all my resentment in the look I gave Xue Yangyang.

Xue Yangyang just thought of herself as a fool. No matter how Xue Qingqing's eyes pierced her, she didn't care at all.

What she really cared about was why the Left Prime Minister fell in love with that young marquis at first sight?

Based on my own experience of accompanying sisters on blind dates,

That young marquis is not a good person at first glance, with wandering eyes and frivolous behavior.

Looking at that face again, Xue Yangyang couldn't help but shake his head.

Oh, God! Give me a chance to escape!

On the way back, when passing by a pond, an official suddenly stopped Zuo Xiang, probably because of something urgent.

"Qingqing, take your sister and rest in the pavilion for a while. Your father will be back soon!"

Xue Qingqing was worried that she would not have the chance to make trouble, but now she could be alone with Xue Yangyang.

"Okay, father." Xue Qingqing raised her lips slightly, and couldn't help thinking of some bad ideas in her mind.

Xue Yangyang saw this faint expression.

In her original owner's memory, Xue Qingqing often bullied her when the head of the family was away.

What about getting her covered in horse manure? What about being locked in the woodshed in the middle of winter? That was commonplace!

If it weren't for the current owner Xue Yangyang who traveled through time a few days ago and reminded Xue Zuoxiang with a few words,

Only then did Xue Zuoxiang begin to slowly understand the bullying Xue Yangyang had suffered over the years, and he began to be on guard against him at all times.

After Xue Zuoxiang arrived, Xue Qingqing took Xue Yangyang and sat down in the pavilion.

"Sister Yangyang, look, the fish in this pond are so big!" Xue Qingqing half leaned on the beauty chair and pointed at the fish in the water, "Sister, kneel on this chair and take a look, maybe you can see it more clearly."

Xue Yangyang couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this. If you want to push me into the pool, just say so.

Since you want to see the fish so much, I'll let you see enough!

"Hehe! Fish! There are so many fish, hehe!"

Xue Yangyang then knelt down on the chair and saw Xue Qingqing's black hand quickly approaching her back.

Just as they were approaching, Xue Yangyang bent down, and Xue Qingqing unexpectedly lost her support and fell into the water with a "splash".

"Sister! Yes! Sister!" Seeing Xue Qingqing struggling in the water, Xue Yangyang suppressed the upward trend of his mouth and revealed a panicked expression.

No way! No way! This guy can't swim?

Xue Yangyang looked at Xue Qingqing who was struggling in the water and was almost out of strength.

At this moment, the lecherous Gao Yuan appeared out of nowhere.

"Sister Xue! Are you waiting for me?" I could hear his wild whispering from a distance.

Waiting for you, you big head ghost, Xue Yangyang frowned and pointed at the water, "Sister, sister! My sister fell into the water!"

"Fell into the water?" Gao Yuan ran to the pavilion quickly. "Oh my! What should I do?"

Xue Yangyang didn't think much about it, thinking that Gao Yuan was a man without his own opinion, so he raised his foot and kicked him into the water.

Xue Yangyang originally wanted to ask Gao Yuan to pull Xue Qingqing out of the water.

I had planned everything but I never expected that Gao Yuan was actually a landlubber.

Now the two of them were splashing around in the water.

Xue Yangyang could only look up to the sky and howl with three exclamation marks on his head! His life was at stake and he could not take it lightly, so he also dived into the water.

Xue Qingqing was already a little exhausted, so Xue Yangyang's first instinct after entering the water was to save Xue Qingqing first.

Xue Yangyang was an excellent swimmer. Just as he was about to get close to Xue Qingqing, Gao Yuan grabbed him with his long hand and dragged him deeper into the water, causing him to choke several times.

"Ahem! Ah! Ahem!"

Just when I felt like my brain was about to flood and I was about to kill myself,

A strong arm lifted her waist from behind.

He brought her to the shore smoothly and quickly.

"Cough cough! Puff!" Xue Yangyang spat a mouthful of water onto the man's face.

The man wiped his face with his sleeve with disgust, and was about to get up and leave before Xue Yangyang could say anything.

Xue Yangyang subconsciously grabbed the corner of the man's clothes, "Ahem!"

It would be a sin to look at him any longer. He was probably eight feet tall, wearing a black robe with a tight waist, and his eyebrows were deep and cold.

After trying to think of something to say for a long time, I could only say absentmindedly, "Thank you!"

The man glanced at Xue Yangyang with a puzzled look. When he heard someone coming, he pushed away Xue Yangyang's hand and left in a hurry.

Although this plot was very cliché, Xue Yangyang suddenly laughed maliciously.

"It's really a feast for the eyes!" Then he slapped himself again, "What nonsense are you thinking! I almost died!"

"Miss, is there anything wrong?" Several maids who hurried over covered Qu Yingying with a cloak and asked repeatedly.

"What's wrong?" Xue Yangyang's eyes curved, and he put his fists on his chin, "Nothing! I'm fine!"

Fortunately, the guards and maids arrived in time, and Gao Yuan and Xue Qingqing were rescued and were not seriously injured!

As soon as the black-clothed man passed the pool, he ran into his personal guard Jiang Chi.

"General, why are you all wet?"

The man in black shook off the water stains on his clothes and paused.

"I met a fool who jumped into the water by himself and couldn't swim!"

Jinwei Jiang Chi laughed and said, "Is there such a fool? General, I didn't see it. If I had seen it, I would have laughed for three days and three nights!"

The black-robed man's eyes darkened, and he thought of the scene he had just seen in the pavilion under the hallway, and a wave of disgust rose in his heart.

The daughters of officials in Jingwei City are so vicious!

"How's the investigation going?" the man in black quickly got back to the point.

"We have checked. The Queen Mother's birthday is coming soon. That person came here today to prepare gifts for her birthday!"

When he heard the Queen Mother, the man in black hesitated. Jiang Chi understood the reason and said,

"General, why don't you just not go? I can do it!"

"No, since it's the Queen Mother's birthday, I'll go and attend it, so that I won't be accused of not going to see it even though I came back!"

"When did the general start to care about those gossipers? Let them talk!"

"It has to be faced." The man in black looked towards the west, where he had been stationed for many years.

He didn't want to return to Jingwei at this time, but he didn't expect to return by mistake.

Over the past decade, he has been hiding his inner thoughts from others.

But only he himself understands that he will not feel at peace until the knot in his heart is resolved.
