Chapter 126: Why should I provoke you if I can't end in one's own way?

"I am just worried about her and want to see her. Let's do this. The old lady sent someone to invite Xiyan over. I want to know if she is okay." Zhou Xing did not refute the old lady's face and took a step back.

The old lady had no choice but to ask Ci Gu to visit Xiyuan for someone.

Gu Xiyan knew that Zhou Xing wanted to see her, but she was reluctant.

Ci Gu knew that she was unwilling to do so and advised: "I know that the eldest lady does not want to see His Highness the King of Qin, but if the eldest lady does not go to see His Highness the King of Qin, his Highness will come to Xiyuan to find His Highness. The old lady tried her best to block His Highness the King of Qin, but she still couldn't stop His Highness's determination to see His Highness."

Gu Xiyan pursed her lips tightly, and after hesitating for a moment, she followed Ci Gu to Kuanhetang.

Zhou Mu hurried back to Zhou's mansion and asked Qi Zhiyuan to send news. He wanted to see Gu Xiyan and determine whether she was safe.

I didn't expect that Min'er appeared directly from the secret passage this time. When everyone saw Min'er, they knew something had happened.

Min'er went to Zhou Mu, and only then did she report to Zhou Xing's visit to Wanqing Marquis' Mansion when she saw Li.

"At this moment, Miss Gu went to Kuanhetang, and the Liu family was present. I believe His Highness, King of Qin, could not really do anything to Miss Gu. Please be relieved, please."

She came here to reply to the message in person because the news was too slow.

"It's Zhou Xing again." Zhou Mu's picturesque eyebrows were stained with a thin frost, and his voice seemed to have quenched ice and could cause people to frost.

Qi Zhiyuan quietly moved away from his young master and said indignantly: "Your Highness of Qin is so hateful! He clearly withdrew from Miss Gu, but he even made a fuss about Miss Gu's idea. The subordinates thought that Miss Gu's marriage should be settled as soon as possible so that they can get it done once and for all. What do you think?"

The young master was worried that he would not be able to maintain his health, so he was not in a hurry to be honest with Miss Gu.

But Miss Gu is surrounded by tigers and wolves, and no one is good at it.

He saw it, and Mr. Xu also left the yamen early, maybe he was also coming for Miss Gu.

He was only worried that the young master would not take action, so he would be snatched away by other men.

"I think you talk too much." Zhou Mu looked to the next door, his eyes dark.

Qi Zhiyuan slapped his mouth and retreated aside, not daring to say anything more.

He could understand the young master's thoughts. He was just too concerned, so he was afraid of harming Miss Gu. Miss Gu was so beautiful and so young. If one day he followed the young master, his condition would worsen. Wouldn't Miss Gu have to be a widow at that time?

"Min'er, you go back to the Marquis' Mansion first and stare at it nearby. If Zhou Xing dares to do anything to Miss Gu, just take action without any scruples." Zhou Mu gave an order after a while.

Min'er replied: "Yes, my subordinates will leave!"

Xu Yanqing came to Wanqing Marquis' Mansion later than Zhou Mu.

He came uninvited, but the concierge whispered to him: "Mr. Xu, it's inconvenient now. The King of Qin is coming down. Do you want to come and visit again next day?"

The gatekeeper was from Marquis Wanqing. He knew that His Highness of the King of Qin came for the eldest daughter, and Mr. Xu, the third son, also came for the eldest daughter.

The eldest girl’s reputation is not good. If His Highness, the King of Qin, saw Mr. Xu and had a conflict, wouldn’t it be even more difficult for the eldest girl to be a human being?

When Xu Yanqing heard that Zhou Xing was coming, he felt a little nervous.

He really wanted to enter the Hou's Mansion and told Gu Xiyan not to be afraid, and that he would protect her.

But he cannot appear rashly, otherwise he may anger Zhou Xing, which will put Gu Xiyan in danger.

"It's me that's abrupt, say goodbye!" Xu Yanqing retreated a little further. He originally wanted to get on the carriage, but when he glanced at the Zhou Mansion next door, he did not hesitate. He planned to go to the Zhou Mansion to take a ride first and make sure Gu Xiyan was fine before leaving.

Cai Yu was so angry that he didn't dare to let someone enter rashly. He asked Zhou Mu what he meant, and then asked Xu Yanqing to enter.

Xu Yanqing was taken to the pavilion. At that time, Zhou Mu took off his official robe and put on a white robe. He sat upright in the pavilion with clear eyebrows and elegant eyes, just like an immortal in the painting.

No matter how many times he meets Zhou Mu, Xu Yanqing will be amazed by Zhou Mu's good skin. Even if he is both a man, he still has a good skin.

Zhou Mu looked up at Xu Yanqing, opened his thin lips lightly: "Sit."

Xu Yanqing sat down opposite Zhou Mu. At this time, Zhou Mu poured a cup of tea and handed it to him.

He took a sip and couldn't help but exclaim: "Good tea!"

"What did you come today?"

Zhou Mu's expression was faint, and his pure black pupils were astonishingly deep, reminding Xu Yanqing of the wild beasts before hunting.

He was obviously a young man like a banished immortal, but he always felt that this person was very dangerous.

I don’t know what kind of family it is that they have raised a complicated and contradictory husband like Zhou Mu.

"I just passed by the Marquis of Wanqing. I wanted to visit the Marquis. The gatekeeper told me that His Highness King Qin was in the Marquis' Mansion. I had nowhere to go, and I didn't want to return home so soon, so I came to Brother Zhou to sit for a while." Xu Yanqing said, sighing: "Brother Zhou tell me, why did His Highness King Qin appear in the Marquis of Wanqing at this time?"

He came for Gu Xiyan, and Zhou Mu hurried home, and Zhou Xing also took him to Wanqing Marquis' Mansion at this time, so he couldn't help but think too much.

The incident of Zhou Xing's resignation in the capital was rumored. Everyone knew that Zhou Xing didn't want Gu Xiyan, and it was Zhou Xing who made Gu Xiyan a laughing stock in the whole city.

Today, Gu Xiyan became the topic of conversation for the people of the whole city again. At this time, Zhou Xing came to the Hou’s Mansion. What was he intended?

"What does Lord Xu think of the King of Qin?" Zhou Mu did not answer Xu Yanqing's question, but instead threw the question back.

"Although I am quite talented, I am stubborn, unstable, and act ruthlessly." Xu Yanqing replied bluntly.

He dare not say this truth to the fact that he is not a good candidate for the crown prince.

Zhou Mu was a little surprised by Xu Yanqing's straightforwardness, "Aren't you afraid that I will spread what you said?"

"Brother Zhou is not such a person. Besides, I don't think Brother Zhou likes His Highness the King of Qin either." Xu Yanqing disagreed.

Just now, Zhou Mu directly called Zhou the "King of Qin" rather than His Highness. He had no respect for Zhou Xing in his tone. It can be seen that in Zhou Mu's eyes, the prince Zhou Xing was just like that.

Zhou Mu did not shy away: "I really don't like the King of Qin."

If it weren't for Zhou Xing, Gu Xiyan's reputation wouldn't have been destroyed like this.

Since such a person cannot end up in one go, why should he provoke Gu Xiyan? Zhou Xing actually wanted to be a concubine even though Gu Xiyan is such a good girl. What does he think he is?

Xu Yanqing felt that Zhou Mu seemed a little popular like this, but he was really curious about which Zhou family in this capital could raise a person like Zhou Mu.

He had checked all the Zhou families in the capital, but he did not see any particularly outstanding noble families. Of course, except for the royal family.

Since Zhou Mu became a third-rank official, it cannot be a pseudonym.

What puzzled him the most was that Zhou Mu, a third-rank official, had never attended the morning court since the day he was on duty, and Emperor Chengde did not scold and scold the matter, which was unreasonable.

"I wonder if Your Highness of the King of Qin is making things difficult for Miss Gu?" Xu Yanqing's eyes fell on Zhou Mu's face.
