Liu Ziqi and his companions also saw the carriage. Liu Yaoyu whispered, "Hey, why is the carriage from the Jingyuan Marquis's Mansion here?"
Yu Jiao also felt a little strange. How could Yu Qizhe know someone from the Xue family?
Yu Jiao asked Bai Lu to knock on the door. The one guarding the door was Song Nian. Jianjia had been to Kanjing Hutong several times with Yu Jiao, so Song Nian recognized her. Seeing that Yu Jiao's carriage was parked not far away, Song Nian hurriedly greeted her with a smile.
"My daughter is here to pick up Miss Yu." Bai Lu said calmly.
Song Nian said hurriedly, "I'll pass the message right away."
Just as he turned to leave, Bai Lu called him again and asked in a low voice, "Why is the carriage of the Jingyuan Marquis's family outside your yard?"
Song Nian subconsciously glanced at the carriage where Yu Jiao was, and said with a guilty conscience, "It's... it's the Princess of Changle County. She's here to see my young master."
Bai Lu frowned slightly after hearing this. Song Nian glanced at her face and knew that something was wrong. He was afraid that he had said something wrong again. He was afraid that Bai Lu would ask more questions, so he hurried into the yard to pass on the message to Yu Fuling.
Bai Lu turned around and went back to the carriage, and said to Yu Jiao, "The doorman said it was the Princess of Changle County, and she came to see Master Yu."
"Changle County Lady, why did she come to see Master Yu? How does Master Yu know Changle County Lady?" Liu Yaoyu asked after hearing this.
Bai Lu naturally couldn't give her an answer.
Even Liu Ziqi was a little surprised. With Yu Qizhe's intelligence, he should know that the Xue family and the Shen party were in cahoots with each other. Since Shen Jinchun had already introduced him to Liu Yu, he shouldn't have contacted the Xue family again.
Yu Jiao looked at the luxurious carriage and suddenly thought of the couplet that Yu Qizhe had written with the Princess of Changle County in Xinglou, and Liu Ziqi had said that Xue Qingshang was a very famous talented woman. Any talented woman would always be easily attracted to a man who was well-read and elegant.
Yu Jiao pinched the wooden hairpin in her sleeve, and her chest suddenly felt a little stuffy.
After waiting for a long time, Yu Fuling finally came out, but she was not alone. There were two people beside her, one of whom was Yu Qizhe, and the other girl was followed by two maids. She wore a pink brocade jacket with the pattern of "Dielianhua", a red gold hairpin inlaid with gems, and moon-shaped pearl earrings. She had a noble demeanor, a face like a silver plate, and delicately painted eyebrows like distant mountains, under which were a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes.
Yu Qizhe, who was standing beside her, still had his back as straight as a green bamboo. Even though he was standing next to the Princess of Changle County, he was still calm and steady, without a trace of humility.
Yu Jiao lifted the car curtain and looked into his eyes. She was a little at a loss for a moment, not knowing whether she should lower the curtain or what expression she should use to deal with this situation.
Yu Fuling walked to the carriage and broke the awkward moment, "Yu Jiao, County Lady Xue wants to see you."
There was a hint of caution in her voice.
Yu Jiao retracted her gaze and looked at Yu Fuling, who added, "It seems that County Master Xue wants to see you for a consultation."
Not far away, Xue Qingshang was looking at Yu Jiao. Yu Jiao had no choice but to nod. She lifted her skirt and got off the carriage.
"Miss Liu San looks rosy-cheeked. Does she seem to have recovered from her cold?" Xue Qingshang glanced at Yu Jiao with her phoenix eyes and said with a slight smile.
She looked at people with an innate arrogance.
Born into a prominent family and well-read, she is known as a talented woman throughout the capital. Her arrogance is well-founded.
Yu Jiao smiled faintly in response, "I was fine just now, but County Lady Xue was worried about me."
