The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

The night was pitch black, and the cold moon and stars hid in the dark clouds one by one.

It was a long night, but there was no light in the sky. Only the half-burned candlelight in the house provided a little light.

Xiaoqing stood quietly behind her master, looking at her master in pajamas, and slowly stopped in front of the back lake.

The candlelight lit by the Back Lake cast a half-bright and half-dark shadow on the master's bare face. Her eyes, which were as clear as water in the daytime, now concealed sorrow.

For some reason, Xiaoqing felt uncomfortable seeing her master's expression. She opened her mouth but chose to remain silent.

I don’t know if Xiaoqing’s vigilance today was too low and her emotions leaked out, or if Yangqi was particularly alert. He glanced back at Xiaoqing, who was hesitant to speak, and shrank in his seat: "Xiaoqing, you are not a hesitant person."

"Master, if you want, Xiaoqing can take you to the East Palace now."

Yang Qi turned around and looked at Xiao Qing's puzzled expression and asked, "Why should I go to the East Palace?"

Xiaoqing was stunned by her master's question. Isn't her master worried about His Highness's upcoming marriage?

Shouldn't it?

The friendship between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and his master was fully demonstrated on Xihu's journey back to Beijing.

I was right there at the time, so I saw it pretty clearly.

"Master, His Highness is about to get married. Doesn't the Master have any feelings in his heart?"

If this is true, Xiaoqing can only marvel that her master is indeed a noble lady raised in the Duke's Mansion. Her mind is something she cannot compare to.

Yang Qi casually put her black hair up with a hairpin and said, "I was just thinking that Bai Yuxin's post today was really unexpected."

Yang Lan is the beloved daughter of Marquis Yongyi and Duke Guo, and they wish they could hold her in their hands every day.

Bai Yuxin has not yet performed the solemn ceremony with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Even if he wanted to attack Yang Lan, he would probably be unable to do so.

However, it's okay to say a few disgusting words.

But judging from Bai Yuxin's usual behavior, she is always well-mannered and polite, acting like a true queen.

Yang Qi would be surprised if Bai Yuxin was as aggressive as An in the past.

Recalling the sad expression of her master a quarter of an hour ago, Xiaoqing frowned.

"What, you still don't believe it?"

Xiaoqing is not a person who would flatter others, so she nodded heavily and said, "I don't believe it. Xiaoqing doesn't believe that the master is not thinking about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Xiaoqing's frank words made Yang Qi feel a little embarrassed.

After preparing some words and pursing his lips, Yang Qi looked up at Xiao Qing, took a deep breath, and then lowered his head: "Well, I did guess what His Highness is doing now."

The master admitted his worries, and Xiaoqing moved forward: "If the master wants, Xiaoqing can take the master to the East Palace now."

I think His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would be happy if he could meet the master.

This is the second time today that Xiaoqing has mentioned taking Yangqi to the East Palace.

However, after hesitating for a moment, Yang Qi shook his head.

Today, ever since they accepted the invitation from the Bai Mansion, Nanny Zhu and Mother He began to worry about what would happen at the Bai Mansion tomorrow.

But Yang Qi has been having a feeling that a storm is about to come these days.

No matter what I do, I always feel a little nervous.

"Xiaoqing, I won't go to the East Palace.

You and Adu must watch over tomorrow's banquet in the dark."

"Yes, master."

Early the next morning, Yang Qi and Yang Lan got up and set off to greet the sunrise.

In order to endorse his lessons, Yang Qi had to get up early since he was young.

Over time, this became a habit and has always been with Yang Qi.

But today, when Yang Qi was still sleeping soundly in bed, he appeared in Yang Lan's exclusive carriage.

Wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, Yang Qi said helplessly: "Second sister, why did Bai Yuxin choose such an early time?

How much is there to say?"

Listening to Yang Qi's mumbling along the way, Yang Lan's originally nervous thoughts now completely dissipated.

"Do you really think that Bai Yuxin has something to say to us?"

Yang Qi leaned against the carriage slightly sleepily and blinked: "Second sister, you said that Bai Yuxin is just an acquaintance of ours on weekdays.

Why do they seem so intimate these days?

Not only did he make an exception and accept the invitation from the mansion, he also took the initiative to send us an invitation."

What Yang Qi said was exactly what had confused Yang Lan these days. However, after discussing various reasons with the old lady, everyone was still unsure of Bai Yuxin or the Bai family's thoughts.

Yang Lan did not answer, and Yang Qi was also happy and relaxed, leaning against the side of the carriage, thinking that he could still find time to take a nap before arriving at Bai's house.

As soon as Yang Qi and Yang Lan arrived at the side door of Prime Minister Bai's residence, Bai Yuxin's personal maid Biyu was already waiting outside.

Seeing the two young ladies getting off the carriage, Biyu came up to them with a smile: "How are you, young ladies?"

Biyu attended many occasions with Bai Yuxin, and became familiar with Yang Qi and Yang Lan.

Don't hit a smiling person. Seeing Biyu being so polite, Yang Lan nodded slightly as a response.
