Wen Feng found an opportunity while serving tea, "Miss Xie might have encountered some trouble."
Yi Yan Gen, who had been writing diligently, immediately stopped and looked up at Wen Feng, "What did she do?"
Wen Feng then recounted in detail the conflict between Miss Xie and the Meng siblings at the horse market that morning.
Later, on the way back to the city, Miss Xie suddenly became displeased and unhappy, and attacked Princess Le An's mount, causing the princess to break her leg and angering Princess Qing Yuan.
Finally, he added that after entering the city, Miss Xie got lost, followed Song Ze all the way, and was eventually escorted back to the Duke Wei's mansion by Song Ze.
Regarding Miss Xie, nothing could be left out, not even the smallest detail.
"Princess Qing Yuan and Young Marquis Meng went to the Duke Wei's mansion just now, most likely to hold Miss Xie accountable."
Yi Yan Gen held his brush still for a long time, "Before this, she should never have met Song Ze?"
"Yes."
However, Miss Xie's usual behavior could not be judged by ordinary standards.
After drinking the Forgetfulness River water to forget her master, was Miss Xie no longer a stranger to her master?
Yet, at their first meeting below Mount Xian, Miss Xie not only forced her way into their carriage but also acted as if she were one of them.
At their mansion, Miss Xie came and went as she pleased, and who dared to say no?
Miss Xie had exclusive use of their master's bedroom, and every time Miss Xie visited, their master had to sleep in the study.
Their first meeting with Young Master Song, Miss Xie was already causing trouble in various ways, which explained nothing.
Perhaps Miss Xie simply found it amusing. Princess Le An used her power to suppress others, so she used the influence of the Fifth Prince and the Duke Wei's mansion to slap Princess Le An's face for fun.
Attacking Princess Le An's mount was even easier to understand.
Princess Le An was trying to get close to Young Master Song, and who wouldn't find that annoying? Especially since Miss Xie was walking right behind her. Perhaps finding her an eyesore, she simply removed the offending object.
Miss Xie had always been like this. When she was in a good mood, everything was fine, but when she was unhappy, she would do anything, regardless of the consequences. Would she care about the consequences?
However, it was also possible that Miss Xie treated Young Master Song differently with ulterior motives.
Although the Duke Dingguo's mansion seemed to have no value now, there was still Young Master Song, wasn't there? Wasn't Young Master Song worth pursuing?
Wasn't Princess Le An trying to get Young Master Song?
Glancing at his master's furrowed brow, Wen Feng could almost confirm that this was what his master was concerned about as well.
But wasn't Miss Xie treating their mansion as her backyard also with ulterior motives? Either she was after their master, or she had even bigger and deeper ambitions.
Wen Feng and the others had discussed it privately and thought both were possible.
To want to claim their master for herself after just one meeting, other girls might only think about it, but what would Miss Xie dare not do?
It was not impossible for her to have other ambitions. Their master now held high power and prestige; in all matters of the court, there was nothing their master could not inquire about or decide with a single word.
It was not strange for Miss Xie to have ulterior motives.
In short, Miss Xie's intentions were unfathomable and very dangerous. It was best to stay away from her. Their master might know all this, but...
Alas!
Wen Feng raised his eyelids again and stealthily glanced at his master. If Miss Xie encountered trouble, did they need to do anything?
"Just observe the situation." She never acted without reason. Since she did something, there must be a reason for it. Interfering rashly would be inappropriate.
Yi Yan Gen said, "Xu Hengyan should be arriving in the capital by now?"
"He should be entering the city soon." Wen Feng was startled. Was Young Master Xu's return at this precise moment calculated by her?
Young Master Xu's need for sweet potatoes and people to grow them had coincidentally been prepared, and this news had been sent to Ninghe yesterday.
Therefore, Young Master Xu's return to the capital had been anticipated for a long time.
A single sweet potato had completely controlled Young Master Xu.
As expected, what trouble could Miss Xie be in that they needed to worry about?
They should focus on worrying about themselves.
