This time, the old lady brought the marquis' family to the Huguo Temple to burn incense, causing quite a stir.

At dawn, there were vehicles and people in front of the Yong'an Marquis Mansion. The lively scene attracted a lot of onlookers. Some people who didn't know what was going on thought that the mansion was holding a wedding.

"What kind of wedding is this? The old lady of the Marquis's Mansion is going to the Huguo Temple to burn incense and pray for blessings..."

"It's just burning incense, why is it so high-profile?"

"The Yong'an Marquisate had always acted in such a high profile before. After the Yong'an Marquis was exiled to Jingzhou, it was quiet for a few years. However, this time the Yong'an Marquisate made great contributions in Jingzhou, and the emperor was very pleased. Not only did he restore the Yong'an Marquisate's hereditary title, but he also promoted his official rank. The Yong'an Marquisate is going to rise again!"

"Not only that, I also heard Madam Nan mention this Marquis' Mansion to the Queen, saying that the fate of this young lady in the Marquis' Mansion is indescribably noble..."

"Mrs. Nan?"

"Yes, she is the concubine of the Prince of Runan. I heard that she was taught by a great master and was once the daughter of the Great Yin priest. Her ability to predict the future is comparable to that of the national master."

Amid the discussions and onlookers of the people, sedan chairs and carriages from the Marquis's mansion came out onto the long street one after another.

The old lady was riding in the largest carriage. Usually, the second lady would accompany her and serve her in the carriage, but this time, the third lady, Wen, got there first.

"It was my second sister-in-law who served our mother before. Now it's our turn to show filial piety to her."

Wen had a smile on her face, but her actions were swift, accurate and ruthless. She pushed Zhang, who was about to get on the car, down directly, making Zhang very angry!

The third wife, Mrs. Wen, did not come from a prominent family like Mrs. Xie, nor did she have a direct relationship with the old lady like Mrs. Zhang did. However, she gave birth to a smart and intelligent daughter, Xiao Ruoruo. As a result, Mrs. Wen's status also rose, and she even dared to challenge Mrs. Zhang.

Who is she?

Zhang was so angry that she was about to argue, but she heard the old lady's voice saying, "Okay, let the third daughter-in-law serve me today."

Seeing that the old lady had spoken, even though Zhang was unwilling, she could only grit her teeth and endure it. Then she glanced and saw Xie...

"That's great, sister-in-law. I'll ride in a carriage with you."

In the past, Zhang and Xie did not get along, and whenever the old lady was looking for trouble, Zhang would always be there to sow discord. At this moment, Xie was very surprised to see Zhang being so eager.

But Zhang was a very outgoing person and didn't care what Xie thought. She only thought about what Xiao Yunni had told her before and directly pulled Xie into the carriage.

Xie didn't understand why Zhang suddenly changed her attitude, but Xiao Xuetang, who was a step behind, understood it after just a quick glance. He looked at Xiao Yunni, who was clinging to him like a piece of taffy, with a half-smile: "What did you and your mother say?"

Xiao Yunni swore quickly: "Don't worry, I just asked my mother not to go against you, and I didn't say anything that shouldn't be said in front of my mother!"

Xiao Yunni didn't lie.

After returning yesterday, Xiao Yunni told the Second Madam some things. The main point was that Xiao Xuetang is no longer the same as before, and asked the Second Madam not to go against Xiao Xuetang.

In the past, only the Second Madam could teach Xiao Yunni a lesson. She had never been taught a lesson by Xiao Yunni like this before, but...

Xiao Yunni's temperament has been very different recently. The Second Madam was inexplicably afraid of her daughter and agreed.

Although the Second Madam is usually unreasonable and seems mean, she only has one daughter, Xiao Yunni, and she really dotes on her.

Not to mention that Xiao Yunni had nightmares in the past two days, and would hug her and cry when she woke up. Zhang was so distressed that she naturally believed whatever Xiao Yunni said.

In Zhang's understanding, Xie was Xiao Xuetang's mother, and if she wanted to be on good terms with Xiao Xuetang, she would have to be on good terms with Xie.

The Second Lady racked her brains to find several topics to talk to Mrs. Xie about, but Mrs. Xie seemed absent-minded and listless.

Xie had been having nightmares these past two days. She dreamed that Xiao Xuetang was standing in front of her with blood coming out of all seven orifices, crying and asking her, "Mother, why do you want me to die too?"

After waking up, Xie felt heartbroken, as if those things had really happened.

She was eager to explain to Xiao Xuetang, but she hadn't seen Xiao Xuetang in the past two days after the family recognition banquet. She thought that today was the best time to go to the Huguo Temple.

But she didn't expect that Zhang, who had always been at odds with her, suddenly ran to her carriage. Xie could only watch Xiao Xuetang and Xiao Yunni get on the carriage with red wheels and a canopy at the back.

Xiao Xuetang looked at Xiao Yunni helplessly and said, "Why are you following me?"

In his previous life, Xiao Xuetang was always kept under control by the old lady and had few real friends around him, so he was not used to Xiao Yunni's closeness.

Xiao Yunni chuckled twice, looked at Xiao Xuetang with a pair of sparkling almond eyes and said, "I have a feeling that following you will definitely be exciting!"

Xiao Xuetang...

As she spoke, Xiao Yunni looked towards the door and saw Xiao Ruoruo and Ye Jin walking out together.

When passing by Xiao Xuetang, he glanced at Xiao Xuetang coldly.

The two of them just glanced at Xiao Xuetang coldly, and then got into the carriage together as if nothing had happened.

Xiao Xuetang didn't take it seriously, but Xiao Yunni made a "tsk" sound and said to Xiao Xuetang, "You have to be careful. Xiao Ruoruo went out even though her face was injured like that. Who knows what bad tricks the two of them are planning."

Xiao Xuetang knew that Xiao Ruoruo and Ye Jin were both going after Lin Shaoshu.

But what Xiao Yunni said was also true, today... the trip to Huguo Temple will definitely not be peaceful!

However, Xiao Xuetang had always been prepared in her heart, but she did not expect that this time, the Huguo Temple would be turned upside down...

By the time everyone had arrived, it was already morning. The bustling carriages took up most of the street. The onlookers could not help but marvel at the luxury of the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion!

But who would have known that these people in the carriage seemed to be in harmony, but in fact they all had their own thoughts...

Several unfriendly gazes were staring at Xiao Xuetang's carriage!

……

Xiao Yi did not attend the court today, and volunteered to escort the old lady to the Huguo Temple in person. He was seen riding a horse in front of the convoy.

Although Xiao Yi is a marquis, he is not like the other children of aristocratic families who live a life of luxury. When he was a child, he was carefully taught by the old marquis. He is very proficient in riding and archery. He has also been on the battlefield. He is one of the few people in the family who has some talent.

He was seen riding a tall warhorse, looking very imposing. Although he was in his forties, he was still very handsome.

The Second Lady looked at the Second Master Xiao, who had long been drained of alcohol and sex and looked wretched beside Xiao Yi, and felt quite uncomfortable.

Just when the Second Madam was feeling extremely jealous, she saw Xiao Yi, who was riding in front, suddenly stop the carriage...

The old lady lifted the curtain and asked, "What's wrong?"

The guard beside Xiao Yi replied on Xiao Yi's behalf: "Madam, this is the carriage from the Ru'nan Palace. They are here to burn incense today as well."

Hearing the words "Ru'nan Palace", Xiao Xuetang's expression flashed a subtle light...
