After Manager Yu left, Pei Zhiyan picked up the teacup to moisten her throat. In her previous life, she trusted Xuanyuan Ping too much and gave him everything she had. In this life, she had to take control of everything back into her own hands bit by bit.

Yin Ping came in and replaced a cup of hot tea for Pei Zhiyan, then said, "Miss, someone from the Pei Mansion sent a message, asking Miss and the Second Miss to come back to the mansion in a few days for a gathering."

Since her rebirth, she has not seen her father and Aunt Yun. In her previous life, not long after Pei Zhixuan got married, she and her sister went back to the Pei Mansion together, and a big event happened that day. It seems that in this life, Aunt Yun and Pei Zhixuan want to repeat the same trick.

They have set up the stage, so how can I not cooperate with their performance? Pei Zhiyan sneered in her heart.

"Okay, I understand." Pei Zhiyan said calmly.

Three days later, Pei Zhiyan set off with Pei Zhixuan. Since the last monthly incident, Pei Zhixuan had never appeared in front of Pei Zhiyan once.

Today, Pei Zhixuan was dressed in jewels and precious stones. She was covered in gold and silver jewelry and had an emerald jade hairpin in her hair, looking extremely luxurious.

Pei Zhiyan was different. She wore a light green long dress and only had a simple flower on her head, which made her look more restrained and elegant.

Pei Zhixuan had a coquettish look on her face and a smug light in her eyes. Pei Zhiyan sneered in her heart. How could she have lost to such a brainless person in her previous life?

Was I really that stupid in my previous life? Pei Zhiyan shook her head helplessly and got on the carriage.

When Pei Zhixuan saw Pei Zhiyan's look, she felt even more proud. It seems that, haha, it seems that this elder sister also has some self-awareness.

Originally, the two could ride in the same carriage, but Pei Zhiyan didn't want to stay in a closed space with Pei Zhixuan. She was afraid that she would be fainted by Pei Zhixuan's vulgar makeup.

So, he ordered people to prepare two carriages.

Pei Zhixuan was naturally unwilling to ride in the same carriage with her, but when she saw her own carriage, her face turned green.

Pei Zhiyan was riding in a carriage specially reserved for the princess. It was decorated extremely exquisitely. The space inside the carriage was spacious and equipped with gorgeous seats and a small coffee table with some exquisite snacks on it. One could sit or lie down in the carriage, which was very comfortable.

Pei Zhiyan didn't have to travel so high-profile, she just wanted to irritate Pei Zhixuan and make her realize her status.

Pei Zhixuan's carriage was just an ordinary carriage in the mansion, without any special decoration or luxurious furnishings.

But this was at the gate of Prince Jing's Mansion, and the servants and passers-by were watching. Pei Zhixuan was not so stupid as to get into a conflict with Pei Zhiyan.

She took a deep breath and tried her best to calm herself down, then walked to her carriage. Xiao Cui quickly opened the curtain for her, and she sat in the carriage with a frown.

In fact, compared with ordinary people's carriages, this carriage is already very good. But because she had seen Pei Zhiyan's carriage, in Pei Zhixuan's eyes, this carriage had a very narrow compartment and simple seats. After sitting on it, she felt uneasy. Moreover, the wheels of this carriage made a "gurgling" sound when rolling, which made her dizzy.

Two carriages went towards Pei Mansion, one in front and one behind.

Aunt Yun had been waiting anxiously at the gate of Pei's mansion. When she saw the shadow of the carriage from Prince Jing's mansion, she sent someone to notify Prime Minister Pei and Old Madam Pei.

After a while, the carriage arrived at the gate of Pei Mansion, and Lord Pei and Old Madam Pei came out to greet them.

The Pei Mansion has a simple population. In addition to Aunt Yun, there are two other concubines in Prime Minister Pei's room, Aunt Li and Aunt Liu.

Over the years, these two have been excluded and suppressed by Aunt Yun and have no status in the mansion at all. Now they are following Aunt Yun like two bullied young wives, making people who don't know them think that Aunt Yun is the mistress of the Pei Mansion.

Aunt Yun was wearing a gorgeous brocade gown with delicate peony patterns embroidered on it, showing her nobility and elegance. She wore a gold jade hairpin on her head, and her black hair was tied into a high bun, which made her look more dignified and elegant.

On her delicate face, with distinct features, eyes like water, and slightly upturned lips, she has a hint of arrogance and indifference. She is slim and graceful, and walks like a blooming peony, elegant and powerful.

Pei Zhiyan was in a trance the moment she got off the car. This was the place where she grew up, full of her memories and emotions. However, the scene in front of her made her feel strange and alienated.

She looked at the so-called relatives in front of her, and a complex emotion surged in her heart. She once thought that they were her support and dependency, but she found that they also had their own plans and conspiracies. She couldn't help feeling heartbroken and helpless.

Seeing Pei Zhixuan following behind, Aunt Yun's heart sank. These two did not come back in the same carriage. It seemed that there was a rift between this eldest lady and her daughter.

Usually Pei Zhiyan treated Pei Zhixuan very intimately and even somewhat dotingly, but today she seemed quite distant.

Thinking of this, Aunt Yun couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, wondering if the plan could be completed smoothly today.

Soon, Pei Zhiyan changed her mood, a bright smile appeared on her face, and she got off the carriage with light steps.

Seeing Pei Zhiyan get off the carriage, Prime Minister Pei led everyone to salute, "Greetings to the princess, greetings to the concubine."

Pei Zhiyan looked around and said calmly, "No need to be polite."

Although her voice was soft and clear, it revealed an aura of authority without anger. Her restrained temperament and majestic image made everyone present feel an invisible pressure.

Even Prime Minister Pei and Old Madam Pei were stunned for a moment. Although this girl was not popular in the Pei Mansion before, she was extremely filial to them. Even after she married into the palace, she never put on airs like today every time she returned home.

Aunt Yun tried to stay calm, and stepped forward as if to take Pei Zhiyan's arm, "Miss, you're back. It's great that you and the Second Miss are back together today. Come into the mansion quickly."

Pei Zhiyan glanced at Aunt Yun calmly without saying anything, but Yin Liu spoke up, "Aunt Yun, my princess and concubine have already married into the palace and are now its people. Please be careful with how you address them."

Aunt Yun was stunned for a moment, and said in a panic, "Yes, I spoke out of turn, please forgive me, Princess."

Pei Zhiyan shook her sleeves but still said nothing. Aunt Yun stood there somewhat awkwardly.

Pei Zhixuan was already lagging behind and felt very aggrieved. Seeing Aunt Yun groveling in front of Pei Zhixuan, she became even more angry. She took a step forward, pulled Aunt Yun and said, "Mom, this is Pei Mansion!"

Pei Zhiyan was so powerful in Prince Jing's Mansion, and now she's back at Pei's Mansion, she still wants to show off? !

Aunt Yun squeezed Pei Zhixuan's palm tightly, signaling her not to speak anymore.
