Rebirth of the High Family's Beloved

Xiao Chengzhang didn't expect Xie Chengyi to admit it so frankly. He had originally wanted to take the opportunity to give him a warning, but after Xie Chengyi admitted it, he couldn't continue to refuse to give in.

But his face was still gloomy, with a strong chill between his brows, and he said in a cold voice: "Do you know what kind of impact your negligence has brought to our Xiangfu? Yizhu is sensitive, and you know her situation. Once this happens, how will others view her?"

"It's my fault. I will go and apologize to the Second Miss. I will deal with the rumors at the banquet. Please believe me, Lord."

Xiao Chengzhang didn't want to make things too awkward with the Yongding Marquis's Mansion. Since Xie Chengyi's attitude had been made clear, he would wait and see the outcome. Moreover, Xiao Chengzhang knew that with Xie Chengyi's character, he would definitely do what he said.

Xiao Chengzhang's expression finally eased, giving both sides a way out. He raised his hand and said, "Sit down and talk. I hope this kind of thing won't happen again. Although the matter is small, it has a huge impact on our two families."

Xie Chengyi nodded, "I understand."

After comforting Xiao Chengzhang, Xie Chengyi left the study and went to apologize to Xiao Yizhui, but he was stopped as soon as he entered the courtyard gate.

The maid Jin Qiao was guarding in the yard. She knelt down and said, "My young lady said she doesn't want to see you. My Lord, please go back."

Xie Chengyi glanced past Jin Qiao and looked towards the house. The door was closed, but a beautiful figure could be vaguely seen through the half-open window.

He did not leave just because he was stopped, but Xiao Yizhui did not want to see him. Since they were not married yet, he could not go in directly. He could only stand there and speak loudly.

"Thank you Chengyi for coming to apologize to the Second Miss. This matter is ultimately due to Ye, and the Second Miss is sad. Chengyi does not ask the Second Miss to forgive me immediately, but only hopes that the Second Miss will not get so angry that she will get sick. If you are angry, just blame Chengyi."

The beautiful figure in the room seemed to walk to the door, and just when she was about to open the door, she suddenly walked away.

Jin Qiao looked back at the room and saw that her young lady still had no intention of coming out after hearing what Lord Xie said, so she advised, "Lord, please go back first. The young lady needs some time."

Xie Chengyi stood there for a while, watching the people in the house still without any movement. Seeing that it was getting late, he didn't want to stay in Xiao Yiju's courtyard for long.

He looked at Jin Qiao and said, "Then I'll leave first. I'll come back when the Second Miss calms down."

Jin Qiao bowed her head and saluted, watching Xie Chengyi's handsome and tall figure leave the yard, then she turned and walked back into the house.

When she opened the door, Jin Qiao saw Xiao Yizhui sitting at the table drinking tea. Thinking of the wild goose with a broken neck, Jin Qiao couldn't help but shudder.

She quickly glanced at Xiao Yiju's face, and seeing that she looked calm, she secretly guessed that she must have calmed down, so she bravely walked in.

Jin Qiao walked to the table, refilled the tea in front of Xiao Yizhu, and said, "Miss, the Marquis has left."

Xiao Yizhui hummed lightly, glanced at the mess on the floor, and said lightly, "Clean it up."

Jin Qiao looked at the mess on the ground and replied as if it was nothing, "I'll go right away."

Xiao Yizhui wanted to question Xie Chengyi in person, asking why he deliberately sent a lame goose and why he humiliated her in such a way. However, she could not rush directly from the women's seat to the men's seat to question Xie Chengyi, so she could only suppress her anger in her heart.

She tried her best to suppress her emotions in front of the guests who came to attend the Naji ceremony, but when she returned to her own yard, she could no longer control herself.

Although she was not favored, the furnishings in her house were still designed for the daughter of a prime minister. Even if the number was limited, all of them were top quality.

Usually Xiao Yizhui cherishes these things very much, except when she is angry and dare not speak out, she will come back and throw things, but only one or two at most each time.

But this time it was different. He must have been very angry. Looking at the broken porcelain pieces, Jin Qiao calculated that there were at least four pieces.

Not to mention the calligraphy and paintings on the desk. Anything that was within her reach was thrown to the ground by her.

It was precisely because of the scene in the room that when Xie Chengyi came, Xiao Yizhui asked Jin Qiao to stop him outside without even showing her face.

She should maintain a good image even in front of her future husband.

At the table, those who were whispering before had stopped discussing and were eating and chatting as if nothing had happened, as if the incident with Hongyan had never happened.

In fact, all of them understood that the affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion were not something they could discuss, so after having fun, they consciously moved on.

Xie Chengyi had seen through these people long ago. They were all those who liked to watch the fun and not mind getting involved. The reason why he dared to agree to deal with the rumors was that he knew that there was no need for him to do anything. Once they left the prime minister's residence, these guests would keep what they saw and heard today in their stomachs.

After all, the incident happened in the Prime Minister's Residence, and the guests who attended the Naji ceremony were also recorded. If there were any rumors about the Prime Minister's Residence, it would only take a quick check to find out who did it.

They did not have the courage to endure the wrath of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Gossip is gossip, but your life is more important.

The Naji ceremony ended relatively smoothly. Xiao Dingyan, who was unaware of the inside story, politely saw Xie Chengyi out. The guests in the courtyard also left the prime minister's residence in twos and threes.

The matter of Hongyan remained in the prime minister's residence and no one mentioned it again.

After returning to the Yongding Marquis' Mansion, Xie Chengyi immediately ordered Sanchi to thoroughly investigate the mansion to find out who had touched his geese.

He clearly remembered that he had put the pair of wild geese into the cage with his own hands. Not only was their legs lame, he would have known even if they had lost a few feathers.

Sanchi hurriedly left the yard, ready to gather everyone in the mansion and interrogate them one by one.

As soon as I walked out of the hospital, I saw Qicun lying at the door and eavesdropping.

After Qicun heard the secret from Xie Chengyin, he went to the prime minister's residence to investigate the situation. However, the guards at the prime minister's residence were very strict today, and there were many people, so he couldn't get in for a while and found nothing.

He squatted at the door for a long time until the Naji ceremony was over. When he saw the eldest son and his brother Sanchi leaving the prime minister's residence, he quietly followed them back and eavesdropped all the way.

He didn't hear much of the content, but he became nervous when he heard that a thorough investigation was going to take place. To make the eldest master so angry, it seemed that the young master had done something really big.

He thought to himself that something was wrong and prepared to go back and tell the young master.

When he turned around, he was grabbed by a hand. He looked at the person carefully and saw the embarrassment of being caught on camera on his panicked face.

He forced a smile, trying to hide the embarrassment on his face, "Brother, why are you here?"

San Chi raised his eyebrows, glanced at the yard and then looked at Qi Cun, "This is the Marquis' yard, I should be the one asking why you are here."

"Oh, sorry, I went the wrong way. I'll be right back."

As he said this, he broke free from the three-foot grip and tried to escape.

San Chi wouldn't let him slip away, so he flashed and blocked Qi Cun's escape route.

"You just said it was broken. What was broken? Do you know who did it?"
