As they walked, Xie Liuzheng couldn't help but come to the gate of a remote courtyard in the northwest corner. Chunyue trotted over to prepare tea smartly.

?

Xia Yue accompanied Xie Liuzheng silently!

?

Xie Liuzheng walked around for a while and felt a little tired. In addition, she didn't sleep well last night, so she pointed to the pavilion not far away and said, "Xia Yue, let's go over there and take a rest."

?

Xia Yue nodded, followed her and walked towards the pavilion!

?

But just when Xie Liuzheng was about to sit down, someone suddenly rushed out, "Who are you? Why are you here?"

?

Soon afterwards, a servant appeared in front of Xie Liuzheng.

?

Faced with the servant's questioning, Xia Yue stepped forward calmly and protected the young lady behind her, but she did not answer the other party's questioning.

?

The servant was a little annoyed when he saw this.

?

The servant immediately stepped forward and was about to bump into Xia Yue.

?

Seeing this, Xie Liuzheng spoke up to stop him, "Who are you? Before asking others about their identities, shouldn't you introduce yourself?"

?

Xie Liuzheng didn't understand the situation of the people in the Marquis' Mansion, but that didn't mean she could allow others to bully her.

?

She knew very well that she now represented her mother's face. If she was bullied, it would be equivalent to someone slapping her mother in the face.

?

Xie Liuzheng would naturally not show any fear. You have to know that his mother is no longer the lowly merchant she used to be. Now she is a dignified lady with a royal title. In the huge marquis's mansion, except for the old lady and the marquis, his mother's status is the most honorable.

?

Even if Xie Liuzheng did not have any imperial edict, she was Xie Xiangyu's daughter, and that was enough.

?

Of course Xie Liuzheng had no intention of showing off.

?

But no matter who the other party was, she would not allow the other party to hit her mother in the face.

?

Seeing this, the servant looked at the woman in front of him carefully. He found that he had never seen her in the Marquis' Mansion before.

?

"I have never seen you before. Who are you? Why do you dare to trespass into the Marquis's mansion?"

?

Before the servant could finish his words, a man in a green robe came over in a hurry, "Jun Zhu, don't be rude to the distinguished guest!"

?

Then the man in green bowed to Xie Liuzheng from a distance and said, "Sorry to bother you, young lady! Please forgive me! This is my servant. Since no one has been here for a long time, Jun Zhu specially asked about this."

?

Hearing this, Xie Liuzheng looked in the direction of the voice and saw the man with his head lowered and his back straight. She was a little surprised and didn't understand how such a handsome man could exist in the Marquis' Mansion?

?

"Didn't they say that the Marquis's Mansion only has one daughter, Zhou Pan'er? Then who is this young man in front of me?"

?

Xie Liuzheng was a little surprised, but she didn't say it out loud. After all, this was the Marquis of Pingxi's Mansion, and Xie Liuzheng had no right to question the Marquis's backyard.

?

But she could go and ask her mother. In any case, she had to find out the identity of the person in front of her.

?

Zhou Pan'er alone was difficult to deal with, so Xie Liuzheng naturally didn't want her mother to have to deal with one more person, especially a young man.

?

When a woman gets married, she can be sent away with a dowry, but this cannot be said of a man. No matter if he is a concubine's son, as long as he is a male, he must live in the mansion.

?

Since they see each other every day, Xie Liuzheng naturally hopes that his mother can live a happy life instead of having to deal with a bunch of bastards every day.

?

"I am sorry to bother you, sir!"

?

Xie Liuzheng didn't stay for long, turned around and led Xia Yue away in a hurry.

?

She didn't know that the young man behind her was staring at her back and didn't look away for a long time.

?

It was the servant who stepped forward and interrupted his thoughts, "Sir, that man looks unfamiliar. He might be the helper that was hired to bully you!"

?

The man in green shook his head unhappily at Jun Zhu. "That woman has an outstanding figure and is dressed in a Jiangnan style. She is not a woman from the capital. She must be a relative of the new lady."

?

"It's better for us not to provoke them!"

?

When Jun Zhu heard this, he felt like a deflated ball. He was very depressed and felt that anyone in this mansion could bully them, master and servant.

?

It would be fine if they bullied him, but the young master is the legitimate master of the Marquis' Mansion, why do those people also bully the young master?

?

But thinking of the young master's identity, Jun Zhu could do nothing even if he complained.

?

He sighed silently, then hung his head and followed the young master back.

?

Xie Liuzheng had just walked a short distance when she bumped into Chunyue, who was fetching tea and snacks. "Miss, weren't you going to rest in the pavilion for a while? Why are you leaving in such a hurry?"

?

Then she looked at Xia Yue in confusion.

?

Xia Yue replied concisely, "Someone!"

?

Chunyue was so angry that she almost vomited blood. "So what if there are people? This is the Marquis' Mansion, and the young lady is the Marquis' stepdaughter. Is there anyone in this mansion who dares to chase the young lady away?"

?

Seeing Chunyue was about to stand up for herself, Xie Liuzheng smiled and explained, "Xiayue meant that there was a man from outside the family, so we left to avoid suspicion."

?

"A foreign man? Miss, you must be talking about the eldest young master in the mansion, right?"

?

Xie Liuzheng was also interested in the identity of the man in green clothes. "I've never heard that Pingxi Hou has a son?"

?

"He is the illegitimate son of the Marquis of Pingxi! His mother is unknown. He has lived in a remote courtyard since he was born. No one protects him. People in the mansion avoid him. There is only one servant who takes care of his daily life. He has no sense of existence in the mansion."

?

Hearing this, Xie Liuzheng was shocked. In her previous life, she had indeed heard about the illegitimate son of the Pingxi Marquis's Mansion. The future of this illegitimate son was not simple. It seemed that he was granted the title of Wang Juxu and became the Guanjun Marquis.

?

You should know that the current emperor seldom confer titles of nobility on people of different surnames.

?

When Xie Liuzheng heard about this, she was very puzzled, but she did not continue to inquire because she was under someone else's control.

?

However, she didn't expect that she would meet this champion marquis so early in this life.

?

Although the origin of the Champion Marquis was criticized, this Marquis of a different surname had a promising future. Xie Liuzheng couldn't help but think back to the fact that he hadn't offended the other party just now, which made Xie Liuzheng's heart settle down a little.

?

She didn't want to curry favor with this marquis of a different surname, but she couldn't offend him either.

?

After all, who knows if you will need the other person in the future?

?

"But young lady, the young lady of the Marquis's Mansion really dislikes this illegitimate child and teases him all the time. But the young master has a good temper and never gets angry. Even when the elders in the mansion knew about it and wanted to teach Zhou Pan'er a lesson, the young master would help plead for him."

?

Chunyue kept talking, "Many people in the mansion think that the eldest young master is stupid! The elders in the mansion stood up for him, so he should have severely punished Zhou Pan'er, but he turned around and pleaded for Zhou Pan'er. Of course, Zhou Pan'er didn't appreciate it, and turned around and continued to bully him even more."

?

Hearing this, Xie Liuzheng became even more interested in this future marquis of a different surname. She asked herself that no one could be so good-tempered, and the other party must have an ulterior motive for pleading for Zhou Pan'er.

?

If this young master was truly a kind person, he should have kept it a secret from the elders in the mansion.
