Chapter 32 She Doesn't Like You I Like You

Wang Liuying suddenly stopped talking about the key points, how could Shen Tu bear it, "What's wrong with the second sister?" She asked pretending not to care.

After Wang Liuying looked around, she said, "The second girl, I also imagine that this eldest girl will marry into the Duke's mansion!"

After finishing speaking, Wang Liuying asked Dong Yun to support her and went back to her room.

Wang Liuying's words made Shen Tu misunderstood. Didn't Qi Yue and Xiao Shilian just divorced?

After returning to the house, Shen Cu asked Qiqiao, "Qiqiao, just now Aunt Wang said that the second sister will also marry into the Duke's mansion, right?"

Qiqiao nodded, "That's what Aunt Wang said just now."

Qiqiao was also puzzled, "Miss, you said that the second young lady just divorced the eldest son of the Xiao family, why is she going to marry into the Duke's mansion so soon?"

Shen Tu shook her head, but she didn't understand, maybe Wang Liuying was talking nonsense, anyway, she didn't think it was a big deal because she was watching the fun.

After noon, Shen Tu was lying on the couch, his brows were slightly frowned because of thinking about something.

Today, I was shocked by this sudden news, so I couldn't figure out the north, south, east, west, and north for a while, and now I calm down and think about it.

If Wang Liuying's words are true, Qi Yue will also marry into the Duke's mansion, which will naturally make Xiao Shilian completely heartbroken, but if the Xiao family is really convicted of treason now, not to mention whether the official position can be kept, I'm afraid is life—

Shen Tu didn't dare to think about it anymore.

"Qiqiao." She said to Qiqiao who was pinching her legs, "Pay more attention to the Xiao family's situation in the past few days."

Qiqiao didn't think there was anything wrong with it, so she agreed.

Now in the capital, the biggest news is the collusion between the former minister of rites and King Pingnan for rebellion, teahouses, wine shops, even the Zuihualou, which is looking for flowers and willows.

Pei Xi has been living in the palace for the past few days, and only returned to his palace today.

"Qi Kang, what are they talking about?"

"It seems to be talking about the rebellion of the Xiao family." Qi Kang replied.

Pei Xi didn't respond, her eyes were fixed on the freshly brewed tea in the bowl.

"Oh? What did they say."

"They said that the Xiao family's rebellion is a foregone conclusion." Qi Kang replied.

Pei Xi put down the tea bowl in his hand, "Qi Kang, go home!"

"Yes, my lord."

"Prince Yu, what a coincidence, we just met in the palace yesterday, and we met again today, do you think this is fate?" As soon as he walked out of the teahouse, he bumped into Prince Xu Bu who happened to be passing by.

Pei Xi took a step back, "Where is Prince Xubu going?"

"It's too boring to stay in the palace," Prince Xu Bu waved his hands in disdain, "it's better for us to be free."

"Does Prince Yu want to come with me?" Prince Xu Bu asked again.

"I still have important matters to attend to, so I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany Prince Xu Bu."

Prince Xu Bu didn't care about Pei Xi's refusal, "Since Prince Yu has something important to do, then Xu Bu will go first."

"The king of Japan must invite Prince Xubu to drink in the mansion." Pei Yi said.

Prince Xu Bu laughed loudly, "Going to Prince Yu's mansion for a drink, that would be great."

After seeing Prince Xubu walking away, Qi Kang said, "My lord, Prince Xubu hasn't decided which princess to marry yet, so why isn't he in a hurry?"

"The emperor is not in a hurry to tell him to return to Shurong as soon as possible, what's the use of him being anxious." Pei Xi said indifferently.

Qi Kang seemed to understand, but he just felt that Prince Xubu was causing trouble in the capital, and it would be better to return to the army earlier.

Shen Tu stayed in the house for several days. Although the Xiao family rebelled, there was no new news, which is really puzzling.

Today, she planned to go outside the gate of Xiao's mansion again.

As soon as she left the small door, she saw two familiar people not far away.

Xiao Shilian, and Qi Yue.

She approached quietly and hid behind a stone as tall as a person.

"I've been waiting for you for several days, but you don't want to come out to see me."

"Daddy went to your house that day and made it clear."

"You really don't want to marry me?"

Shen Tu could only hear the voice, but couldn't see the expressions of the two of them.

Qi Yue didn't answer Xiao Shilian's question.

"Do you still like me?"

Qi Yue still didn't respond to Xiao Shilian's question.

After mutual silence, Xiao Shilian finally spoke, "Okay, since you don't want to, I won't force you, you and I will part from now on."

After the words fell, Shen Tu heard the sound of footsteps leaving.

When the footsteps were far away, she dared to poke her head out quietly.

Xiao Shilian was still where he was, and the one who just left...was Qi Yue?

He probably didn't notice her, but his decadent appearance made her feel distressed.

Originally she was going to give up, but Xiao Shilian responded by avoiding her approach, and Qi Yue also said that he would definitely marry him, two steadfast people, she had no choice but to let go.

After a while, he was still standing there, Shen Cu couldn't bear it anymore.

"Don't be sad," she said loudly.

Maybe it was her sudden fright that frightened him, Shen Tu saw the change of expression on his face.

"She doesn't like you, I like you." Now she doesn't need to worry about anything, Qi Yue doesn't want him.

After leaving a cold "no need", Xiao Shilian left.

Shen Tu knew that now was not a good time to attack, so he could only wait, but since his engagement with Qi Yue had been cancelled, she still had more time.

By the way, he is about to take the spring test, and she is worried about whether the matter of the Xiao family will affect him.

"Miss, didn't you want to buy rouge?" Qiqiao asked suspiciously, "Why did you come back so soon?"

"I don't like it." Shen Tu casually found a reason.

"Qiqiao, you still have to pay attention to the affairs of the Xiao family." She said, "You should also pay more attention to the affairs of the house."

Qiqiao nodded, "Understood, miss."

Half a month has passed, there is still no movement in the Xiao family, and the lively topic in Beijing has already changed from the Xiao family's treason to other things.

Xiao Shengyuan, who had been cut from his official position, stayed in the mansion every day, and the door of Xiao's house was closed every day, and no one came there anymore.

But Shen Tu knew that Xiao Shengyuan lived in the academy these days.

For some reason today, she wanted to eat that plum cake, so she asked Qiqiao to go to the kitchen to see if there was any plum cake.

Qiqiao came back out of breath, "Miss, Wang... Aunt Wang..."

Shen Tu was taken aback, thinking that Wang Liuying had a miscarriage, although Wang Liuying wasn't sincerely kind to her, but he did not harm her.

"Aunt Wang is right, Second Miss is really going to marry into the Duke's Mansion." Qi Qiao finally finished speaking in one breath.

Didn't she just divorce Xiao Shilian?It's only been a few days, and she's about to remarry and go to the Duke's mansion?
So she asked Qiqiao, "Which Duke's Mansion?"

There is more than one Duke's mansion in this capital city, so they can't marry into Duke Xuan's mansion too!
"I heard it's Duke Mu's mansion." Qiqiao said.

Duke Mu's mansion?

"Mu Chi?" She blurted out subconsciously.

Qiqiao was very surprised, "Miss, how do you know?"
