Aunt Mei couldn't say anything and could only watch the servant take Xu Rulan and Tang Chuheng away.
Tang Youze turned and went into the study, then sat on the armchair and looked at Mei Xiao'e who was standing in front of him.
Her face was sallow, her eyes were dark blue, and she looked haggard. She looked older than her actual age.
The clothes she was wearing were also of old style, and she only wore a wooden hairpin on her head.
A pair of eyes flashed with shrewdness, and he had been secretly looking at everything in the study room since he entered it.
At this moment, Tang Youze felt that he had a very poor vision. He had never thought that Mei Xiao'e was so unpresentable before!
Then I thought of Xu Rulan. Just like her name, her temperament is like orchid. Not only is she young and beautiful, but her temperament is also like Chi Ran!
That’s right, Xu Rulan’s temperament is a bit like Chi Ran, but she doesn’t have Chi Ran’s arrogance!
After all, there are not many young ladies as beautiful as Chi Ran in the capital. Xu Rulan not only has the same temperament as Chi Ran, but also obeys him in everything, with admiration in her eyes!
Thinking of this, a touch of tenderness flashed in Tang Youze's eyes. They will get better and better in the future...
"Master, Ying'er's wedding is coming soon!"
"But I don't have anything valuable! If Ying'er gets married without a dowry, not only will the Xuanping Marquis' Mansion look down on Ying'er, but we will also be looked down upon by the Wenyong Earl's Mansion!"
Aunt Mei said with a worried look on her face.
Tang Youze lowered his head and pondered for a moment. If they, the Wenyong Marquis' Mansion, wanted to hold on to the Xuanping Marquis' Mansion, they still had to rely on Tang Chuying!
But Tang Chuying's dowry was too shabby, which would indeed make the Xuanping Marquis' Mansion look down on them even more!
Tang Youze was about to speak when the servant ran in and said, "Master!"
The servant ran out of breath and wanted to speak, but was scolded by Tang Youze, "Are the rules in the mansion just for show?"
"Don't you know how to knock before entering?"
The servant immediately knelt down and said, "Master, please forgive me!"
"If you act so recklessly again next time, don't blame me for punishing you!"
"I know I was wrong!" the servant kowtowed quickly.
After Tang Youze scolded the servant, he asked casually, "Why are you so flustered?"
"Master, the Regent is here!" said the servant.
"What?" Tang Youze immediately stood up from the armchair. Because he moved too quickly, he knocked over the inkstone on the desk, and ink spilled everywhere.
The last time the Regent came was because of the affair between Gu Huaifeng and Tang Chuying. Why did he come this time?
Tang Youze didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly walked towards the door. As he walked quickly, he scolded the servant, "You dog slave, why didn't you tell me earlier that the Regent was coming?"
The servant felt extremely aggrieved. He wanted to speak just now, but he was not given the chance to open his mouth!
Aunt Mei's eyelids suddenly twitched. She had a hunch that this regent was very evil and nothing good happened every time he came!
By the time Tang Youze and Aunt Mei hurriedly arrived, Tang Chuyao and Tang Chuying were already at the door.
"Your Highness, please forgive me. I didn't know you were here to welcome me!" Tang Youze bowed respectfully, feeling uneasy, with beads of sweat sliding down his forehead.
After a while, Gu Qingchen's calm voice sounded, "My Lord, you are too polite! I am the one who came here uninvited. Sorry to bother you!"
Tang Chuying secretly looked at the man in front of her. He was wearing a dark purple gold-woven python robe. The gorgeous fabric was embroidered with exquisite dark patterns, and the collar and cuffs were trimmed with silver piping. He had a white jade belt around his waist, and his figure was as tall and straight as a pine tree.
His face was handsome, almost demonic, his eyebrows were like ink paintings, and his narrow and long phoenix eyes were deep and cold, making people dare not peek at him easily.
She pursed her thin lips lightly, revealing a barely perceptible coldness, and her temperament was as cold as the winter moon.
Every time he appeared, he carried with him an innate majesty and dignity that made people feel intimidated, yet unable to help but be fascinated by him.
Tang Chuying was obsessed with him. Even if it was just a fleeting romance, she would die with no regrets...
Noticing Tang Chuying's gaze, Gu Qingchen concealed the disgust in his eyes and walked into the mansion while suppressing his nausea.
In the front hall, Tang Youze had tea served. Gu Qingchen sat in the seat of honor, supporting his chin with one hand, his eyes unconsciously falling on Tang Chuyao.
The little girl was wearing a pink dress today. The fabric was soft and silky. Her long black hair was combed into a bun and she wore a white jade hairpin inlaid with pearls.
Although she is wearing a veil, her eyes are so lively and clear that people can't take their eyes off her!
These eyes had appeared in his dreams countless times in the past six years. After tossing and turning, the owner of these eyes finally came to his side...
Tang Youze followed Gu Qingchen's gaze and found that he was staring at Tang Chuyao. He did not understand what this gentleman meant.
All he heard was Ye Feng beside Gu Qingchen saying, "My Lord, this time our prince came to your house to look for his benefactor!"
After Ye Feng finished speaking, everyone in the room, except Tang Chuyao, was surprised. Tang Youze asked the doubts of the family, "Excuse me, what does this mean?"
Ye Feng continued, "Our prince returned to Beijing from suppressing bandits a few days ago. On the way, he encountered an assassin and was injured. He was rescued by a little girl."
"After investigation, we found that the prince's benefactor is in the mansion of Wen Yongbo..."
Tang Chuying was overjoyed, she knew about this!
Three years ago, when Tang Chuyao just returned to Wen Yongbo's mansion, she threw an olive branch to Tang Chuyao and tried to get close to her, so Tang Chuyao, the idiot, told her all her experiences outside!
When Tang Chuyao was three years old, she was brought to Aunt Mei's residence. After Aunt Mei came to the residence, the first thing she did was to drive Tang Chuyao to the residence of Earl Wen Yong.
It happened that Zhilan came from the palace with the imperial concubine's order to send Tang Chuyao to Jingxin Temple to study.
Tang Youze didn't even think twice and asked Zhilan to take away Tang Chuyao, who was only three years old.
During these years, Tang Chuyao had been staying in Jingxin Temple. The nunnery's nunnery would occasionally send messages to Tang Youze, briefly telling him about Tang Chuyao's situation.
Three days ago, Tang Chuyao returned home and told her many of her experiences outside, including saving a strange boy!
Thinking of this, Tang Chuying glanced at Tang Chuyao calmly, and was relieved when she found that she did not react at all.
It really helped her when Tang Chuyao broke her head and lost her memory a while ago!
Tang Chuying didn't want to marry Gu Huaifeng at first. If she became Gu Qingchen's benefactor, then she would definitely be able to make Gu Qingchen fall in love with her!
Although her current reputation is not very good, as long as she marries Gu Qingchen and becomes the regent princess, who dares to gossip about her? !
“I have the audacity to ask Your Highness, but was it six days ago, on a cliff?” Tang Chuying looked at Gu Qingchen excitedly.
Gu Qingchen glanced at Tang Chuyao, looked at Tang Chuying lazily, and replied lightly, "Well, not bad!"
