Xiao Yunyan had already brewed the tea and stood by the window, looking out, not knowing what he was looking at. When he saw his two sisters coming in, he withdrew his gaze, and his indifferent eyes showed a bit of gentleness.

Xiao Yunrou looked at her brother. He was as beautiful as snow, with black hair tied up on his head by a mutton-fat jade crown. He also had an innate aloof temperament. If someone who didn't know him saw him, it would seem like he walked out of a painting and would be considered unattainable.

"I think my elder brother is not far from becoming a monk. No wonder mother is worried about when you will get married all day long." Xiao Yunya laughed softly.

Xiao Yunyan didn't mind seeing his sister teasing him, he walked over and tapped Xiao Yunya's head gently.

"Why did you think of asking me out today?" After the three of them sat down, Xiao Yunyan poured them a cup of tea and asked.

Xiao Yunrou didn't expect that Xiao Yunya would follow her. Xiao Yunya lived a happy life in her previous life. Although her marriage changed in this life, she had not experienced that tragic scene after all, so she hesitated for a long time and did not speak.

Xiao Yunya looked at Xiao Yunrou's hesitation. Although she didn't know what her elder brother and elder sister were talking about, she knew that she shouldn't listen to this, so she smiled and said:

"I'll go down and see if the new pastries are ready."

After Xiao Yunya left with a smile, Xiao Yunyan spoke up: "Is there anything you can't say in front of Ya'er?"

Xiao Yunyan was a little curious. The three siblings from the same mother had a very good relationship. Today, Xiao Yunrou wanted to avoid Xiao Yunya by saying or doing something, which made him a little cautious.

"Yun Ya has a simple personality. Although she has experienced the broken engagement, she is still a simple girl. She is my sister, so I naturally hope that she can live a smooth life without being bothered by trivial matters. If she doesn't know some things, she will have fewer worries and troubles."

Xiao Yunrou took a sip of tea, raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Yunyan seriously.

"Brother, since we are siblings, I will speak frankly. I know that you have some connections in the capital. If possible, I would like to borrow your hidden connections."

Xiao Yunyan's eyes flashed, and he leaned back in his chair and looked at Xiao Yunrou. It was true that he had hidden stakes, but many of them were buried together with Prince An. Moreover, Xiao Yunrou was already married, so what was the use of the hidden stakes in the capital?

"It's fine to lend them to you, but you have to tell me what you want them to do."

"I heard from Ling Feng that my elder brother is also investigating the hidden stakes in the house, and several were also found in the Marquis' Mansion. Although my younger sister is not familiar with political affairs, she knows that it is not a good thing to plant such deep hidden stakes in the mansion of an important official, and to plot against more than a dozen lives. My elder brother also knows my younger sister's character. She is not the kind of person who would wait for someone to come and kill her and then not know how to fight back. Since they have done it on the first day, my younger sister would like to get some interest back even if she doesn't do it on the fifteenth."

Xiao Yunrou did not hide her intentions and made them clear. Although Pei Lingfeng did not tell her that the Qiao family had connections with people in the capital, she knew a lot of things after returning from her previous life. The Qiao family and the Pingnan Marquisate had worked together to help the third prince ascend the throne. She did not have many ways to suppress the Zhong family, but she could still do a lot to prevent the Zhong family from marrying the Shaanxi General and cutting off one of their arms.

Xiao Yunyan stared at Xiao Yunrou for a long while before smiling and saying, "Although you have been married for a few years, I always feel that you are still the same as you were at home before. Now it seems that Rou'er has indeed grown up."

Although Xiao Yunyan was very comforted, he still hoped in his heart that his sister would not be affected by these open and secret struggles.

"How do you want to do this?"

Xiao Yunrou was delighted when she saw Xiao Yunyan agreed. She told Xiao Yunyan her idea and when she saw him looking at her in surprise, she smiled and said:

"Brother, do you think this method is not good?"

Xiao Yunyan shook his head. He did not think there was anything wrong with it. It was just that all he had learned since childhood were strategies for governing a country. Although he knew about those conspiracies and schemes, he disdained to use them. He had indeed never thought of Xiao Yunrou's method and could not help but sigh at the difference between men and women.

"Brother, don't underestimate these women's methods. Sometimes, these methods are more effective than yours."

Xiao Yunrou knew what Xiao Yunyan was thinking and said it out loud without hesitation. Xiao Yunyan just smiled and shook his head, and began to think about who should be sent.

"Take this jade ring and go look for that person. He will listen to your instructions." Xiao Yunyan took out a crystal clear jade ring from his sleeve and handed it to Xiao Yunrou.

"Thank you, big brother." Xiao Yunrou put the ring into her sachet and said with a smile.

After finishing the business, Xiao Yunrou wanted to send someone to bring Xiao Yunya back, but as soon as she opened the door, she saw Hongrui, who was serving Xiao Yunya, walking towards her quickly.

"Master, Miss, and Miss are being blocked downstairs by Miss He and her men."

They were both startled when they heard this, and quickly followed Hong Rui downstairs. When they arrived on the street outside Guanyue Tower, they heard He Huanhuan's disgusting sharp voice.

"Xiao Yunya, you are a woman whose engagement has been broken off, yet you still show up in public all day long, and you have no shame. I will let you know what shame is right now! Come on, arrest Miss Xiao Er."

The viciousness in He Huanhuan's eyes was clearly seen. Although Xiao Yunya broke off the engagement, everyone knew about the fate, so her reputation in the rich and powerful families was still good. She was still the ideal daughter-in-law who was suitable for the family, talented, gentle and virtuous. But today, she was annoyed by He Huanhuan's persistence. It was a pity that she only brought Hongrui down with her. Hongrui went back to report the news. How could she fight against the four people around He Huanhuan?

"He Huanhuan, we have no grudges in the past or today, why are you forcing me like this? I was standing here quietly choosing jewelry, and you brought people to overturn the merchant's table, and even intended to commit murder in public. Do you think there is no law under the emperor's feet?"

Xiao Yunya looked at the four people coming towards her, but her eyes were looking for a way to retreat. She knew that Hongrui had gone to report the news, and her elder brother and sister would be here soon, so she was not worried that she would suffer a loss, but He Huanhuan's behavior was really disgusting.

"Law? It was clearly you who overturned the table and tried to escape. I am here to redress his injustice, so that evil people like you won't be able to take advantage of your family background to do evil." He Huanhuan had a gloomy face and spoke in a fierce tone.

"Why don't you hurry up? If this evil man gets away, who will this peddler go to for justice?"

Although passers-by understood the reason, the clothes and jewelry of the two people showed that they were either rich or noble. They were ordinary people and could not afford to offend these dignitaries, so they all huddled on the side of the road to watch the show, and they just felt sorry for Xiao Yunya being bullied by the shrewish He Huanhuan who confused right and wrong.

"If you want to reason with me, you should go to the Jingzhao government office."

Xiao Yunyan and Xiao Yunrou came over with sullen faces. Although Xiao Yunyan usually looked gentle as jade, he was extremely protective of his people. How could He Huanhuan bear the consequences of his anger?

"Go find the prefect of Jingzhao. Although our Xiao family is not as noble as the royal family, we are still worthy of the name of a famous family. If it is true as this lady said, then we should pay the compensation."

He Huanhuan recognized Xiao Yunyan and Xiao Yunrou, and she couldn't help feeling angry when she saw them appear and interrupt her good thing.

"Is Mr. Xiao going to protect your sister?"

He Huanhuan made a mocking remark, but Xiao Yunyan ignored her, and the servant beside him quickly went to Jingzhao Yinfu. Xiao Yunrou took Xiao Yunya's hand and soothed her:

"You went to get a snack and ran out to the street. You know that the capital is in a mess now. All kinds of people want to bite you. If we don't bother with them, we will be taking advantage of them."

He Huanhuan understood Xiao Yunrou's insinuation and her expression became even uglier. She wanted to say something else, but for some reason the Jingzhao Yin came so quickly today, and in a moment he came with his yamen runners.

"Master Xiao, Madam Crown Prince, Miss Xiao II." Jingzhao Yin wiped the sweat from his forehead and couldn't help but complain. It was winter, and he ran over as soon as he received the news. Now his back was still wet, and he didn't know if he would catch a cold when he went back tonight.

Jingzhao Yin only ignored He Huanhuan, which made her eyes full of fire. She thought that she must let people know that this dog official only knew how to curry favor with the children of high-ranking officials and protect Xiao Yunya. But before she could open her mouth to teach him a lesson, Xiao Yunyan spoke.

"This Miss He said that Ya'er deliberately knocked over the vendor's stall and tried to escape, but Ya'er said that Miss He did it on purpose and framed her. Although I am a third-rank minister of the Ministry of Justice, Ya'er and I are siblings after all. I'm sorry to trouble Lord Kong to prevent outsiders from accusing me of protecting my own sister."

After hearing this, Xiao Yunrou took over the conversation and said calmly:

"Lord Kong is the father and mother of the capital. He has always handled cases impartially and is deeply loved by the people. My daughter's reputation is of great importance. I hope Lord Kong can find out the truth and restore my sister's innocent reputation."

One is the eldest son of the Xiao family, a close confidant of Prince An, and a third-rank assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice; the other is the eldest daughter of the Xiao family, the wife of the prince of the Zhenyuan Marquisate. Xiao Yunya also has a good reputation in the capital, and no one would believe that Xiao Yunya would do such a thing.

"Are you the owner of this stall?" Jingzhao Yin quickly grabbed the peddler and began to interrogate him.

"Tell me, who is the one who promoted this stall? Don't try to fool me. There are so many people here. I will interrogate them one by one and I will know whether what you said is true or not."

Although the peddler was just a commoner, he was very unhappy with He Huanhuan's behavior. Although he didn't know who these people in front of him were, nor did he know what Xiao Yunya looked like with a veil on her face, he had to tell the truth because Xiao Yunya spoke of concern when everything on his stall was smashed and he was accidentally scratched.

The vendor pointed at He Huanhuan and told her what happened. It turned out that He Huanhuan saw Xiao Yunya choosing jewelry at his stall, so she deliberately bumped into him and knocked over his stall. She also had people surround Xiao Yunya and refused to let her leave. She also described in vivid detail how He Huanhuan intended to attack Xiao Yunya in public.
