"The rumor that Miss Gu was divorced by the young master spread all over the city!" Qi Zhiyuan repeated it again.
It was Min'er who received the news early in the morning and passed it on to him, and he only found out about it.
I don't know who is the unscrupulous person who is spreading this news, but it has finally pushed Miss Gu to the forefront again and she has become a victim of rumors.
Zhou Mu stayed up all night and was in a state of irritability and depression. His eyes were dark and unpredictable: "Do you know who spread the news?"
It couldn't be that Gu Xiyan had leaked the news on her own. If it was really Gu Xiyan's fault, would she want to end her relationship with him completely?
When he thought of this possibility, his heart tightened and his whole body seemed to be torn apart.
"Min'er said that Marquis Wan Qing went to Xiyuan yesterday, and it seems that Miss Liu Si overheard the conversation between Miss Gu's master and servant. According to my subordinates, Miss Liu Si is the most suspicious." Qi Zhiyuan had expected this.
When Zhou Mu asked this question, he told everything he knew about the situation.
Zhou Mu's thin lips were a little dry, and the blue and black under the corners of his eyes were very obvious. His voice was hoarse and dark: "It may not be Liu Si who spread the news, it may be other people in the Liu family, but it can't be separated from the people of Wanqinghou Mansion.
relationship."
"If it is true as the young master said, why did the other party wait so long to spread the news?" Qi Zhiyuan was puzzled.
Although the young master proposed yesterday that he wanted to become a monk, didn't he break off the engagement? The young master obviously couldn't bear to care about the girl, but the girl couldn't wait to spread the rumors, which is very heartbreaking.
"It's just to make Xi Yan's reputation worse. The other party must be very unhappy with Xi Yan, or hate her." After Zhou Mu said this, his aura suddenly became stronger: "In one night, I can only...
Rumors spread among the Liu family."
Qi Zhiyuan thought this was the truth, and he asked cautiously: "Master, do you want to clarify this rumor?"
If the young master wants to clarify, it means that the young master can't let go of Miss Gu, and if he can't let go of Miss Gu, he won't think about becoming a monk anymore, right?
Zhou Mu did not answer Qi Zhiyuan's question. After washing, he did not eat breakfast and left the house as if nothing happened.
On the other side, Xu Yanqing also received the news.
Zhen'er told him this matter early in the morning. He was stunned for a long time and said, "It's probably just a rumor. Zhou Mu likes her so much, how could he cancel her marriage?"
"But this rumor is spreading throughout the capital, saying that the divorce is certain, and it doesn't look like a lie." Xu Zhen'er's eyes lit up as she spoke: "How about I go to Wanqinghou Mansion to find out what's going on?"
Xu Yanqing thinks this is a good idea, but...
"I'll go there myself! If it's true, I'll marry her!!" Xu Yanqing said resolutely.
But his mood was far from as calm as it seemed on the surface. He admitted that he was dark in his heart, and actually hoped that the matter of breaking off the engagement was true, so that he would have a chance to marry Gu Xiyan.
Xu Zhener looked at the third brother who was a little excited, and she suddenly regretted telling him about this.
If the divorce was false, wouldn't it make the third brother happy in vain?
"Third brother, don't have too much hope. I think the rumors are just rumors and cannot be taken as true. Otherwise, why don't you let me find out the truth first?" Xu Zhen'er suggested weakly.
"It doesn't matter, I'll go to Wanqinghou Mansion to see what's going on." Xu Yanqing said and hurriedly left the house.

Wanqinghou Mansion.
After Gu Xiyan woke up, she also received the news that her marriage to Zhou Mu had changed. She heard that it was spread not only in the Hou Mansion but also throughout the capital.
"I don't know who is the unscrupulous person who is spreading this nonsense. Isn't this deliberately damaging your reputation?!" Hu Die cried out for Gu Xiyan.
Gu Xiyan thoughtfully said: "I'm wondering who spread the news."
"Who else could it be? It must be the fourth girl. I heard that it was the fourth girl who overheard the conversation between the girl and the slave, so the Marquis came to Xiyuan to ask what happened. It is not a secret that the fourth girl misses Mr. Zhou, her motive
The biggest!" Qiushi replied.
"That's not necessarily the case! There are many people in the Hou family who hate me. The third sister counts as one, and the second sister counts as one. They have more motivation to do this than the fourth sister." Gu Xiyan washed her hands slowly, not because of this.
What kind of mood swings do you have about something?
Hu Die watched her washing action with fascination. How could someone look so good while washing?
"Why?" Qiushi felt that her head was not clear.
"The fourth sister still wants to be the master's concubine. Aunt He is behind the plan. The fourth sister is unlikely to offend me at this time. The third sister's motive is not that big. She likes Mr. Xu. If my marriage fails, I will
There are further possibilities between Mr. Xu, so she is unlikely to dig her own grave." Gu Xiyan peeled off the cocoons and came one by one.
Hu Die admired Gu Xiyan even more when he heard this: "Xiyan, you are so smart, why can't I think of this?"
Gu Xiyan couldn't help but want to laugh: "What's wrong with being so simple like you? You are simple because your life is simple. Unlike me, who grew up in an environment like the Hou Mansion, I have to be cautious about everything and think twice before deciding.
.”
Qiushi reacted at this time: "Young lady, do you mean this rumor spread by the second girl?"
"Well, if nothing unexpected happens, it's her. Well, I'll go to Fenghe Hall."
Qiushi was dumbfounded: "Didn't the girl say that the second girl is the most suspicious? Why are you going to Fenghetang?"
"Yes, doesn't the second sister listen to Li's arrangements in everything? In the past, when the second sister was seducing the King of Qin, Li helped the second sister with a lot of ideas." Gu Xiyan said, and her voice changed: "I still
Let's go after breakfast, there's no rush."
Gu Xiyan ate her breakfast in a leisurely manner before taking the others to Fenghe Hall.
When she entered the hall, Liu Chaoyan was also there.
Mrs. Li didn't seem to expect her to come, and after a while she said with a smile but not a smile: "Why do you have time to come to Fenghe Hall today?"
Liu Chaoyan looked at Gu Xiyan with unabashed ridicule: "There are rumors throughout the capital that my sister's marriage is about to be called off again. Why is my sister still... in the mood to go out and about?"
She originally wanted to ask Gu Xiyan why she had the nerve to go out and walk around, but she changed her words at the last moment.
"Yes, I should be hiding in Xiyuan right now and crying bitterly." After a pause, Gu Xiyan's voice suddenly changed: "I just learned from the fourth sister that it was the second sister who spread this rumor——"
Liu Chaoyan's expression changed again and again, "It's obviously her rumor spread, how can you blame it on me?!"
"The fourth sister insists that it is the second sister. Otherwise, we should ask the fourth sister to come over and confront the two sisters." Gu Xiyan said with a half-smile.
Liu Chaoyan subconsciously looked at Li, who didn't look very good-looking.
Gu Xiyan's test turned out to be true. This time her annulment was indeed the work of Li and Liu Chaoyan.
