Qi Zhiyuan just didn't say that these two people already knew each other.
The young master didn't look very good, and he came out during duty hours to spy on Miss Gu. He must be reluctant to leave Miss Gu, right?
Zhou Mu glanced at Qi Zhiyuan coldly. Qi Zhiyuan did not dare to look directly at Zhou Mu, so he pretended to look elsewhere.
Another two quarters of an hour passed, and Qi Zhiyuan asked: "Is it time for the young master to go back to duty?"
Anyway, with grandma here, Miss Gu can't suffer any loss.
Zhou Mu got on the carriage this time, but said: "Go home."
Qi Zhiyuan couldn't understand why the young master returned home at this time, didn't he still have to go on duty? Today is not the young master's rest time.
But the young master had spoken, and he did not dare to object.
After Zhou Mu returned home, he found the stack of dating lists in the study. He pulled out the portrait of Jiang Zhou, took a look at it and said: "The appearance is too ordinary, not worthy of Miss Gu's beautiful face."
Qi Zhiyuan thought that the young master's stunning appearance could match Miss Gu, so the young master should do it himself.
Zhou Mu looked at Jiang Zhou's introduction again, and then shook his head: "I only ranked fourth in the martial arts test. No wonder I can only be a commander of a small military commander."
If he is the top scholar in martial arts, he may become a third-grade general.
"If the young master goes to take part in the martial arts test, no one will be the young master's opponent!" Qi Zhiyuan agreed: "Master Jiang's martial arts skills are definitely not as good as the young master."
Not only is his martial arts incomparable, but his face is also inferior.
Zhou Mu finally looked at Jiang Zhou's family background, "His background is quite innocent, and he has no romantic affairs in the past. Only his sister is adopted. You can check carefully to see if there is any shady relationship between him and Jiang Fan secretly."
"
Qi Zhiyuan was speechless after hearing this.
How could the young master think so deeply? Just because Jiang Fan is the adopted daughter of the Jiang family, he suspected that he had an affair with Jiang Zhou.
Jiang Zhou's face looks very honest, and he doesn't look like he would do anything unethical.
"What are you doing? Take the time to check and tell me if you find any problems!" After Zhou Mu finished speaking, he took Jiang Zhou's portrait and planned to return to the official office to take a closer look.
Qi Zhiyuan was left where he was, and he secretly wondered if the young master was hoping that he would find out something bad about Jiang Zhou, so that Miss Gu would no longer have to deal with Jiang Zhou.
On the one hand, the young master is looking for a man for Miss Gu, but on the other hand, he hopes that there will be problems with the men he looks at. Why is the young master so conflicted?
After sighing for a while, Qi Zhiyuan went to the vicinity of Jiang's house to inquire about the Jiang family's past.
After Gu Xiyan and Jiang Zhou saw each other, Jiang Zhou specially escorted Gu Xiyan back to the Marquis Mansion.
Coincidentally, Xu Yanqing happened to meet Gu Xiyan's carriage when he returned to his uncle's house after lunch. The way back to Xu's house did not necessarily have to pass through Tianhe Street, but for some reason, he still let the carriage take the long way and deliberately detoured to
Tianhe Street.
Maybe he subconsciously hoped to meet Gu Xiyan, but it turned out that he really did.
But there were two carriages in front, and the other seemed to be escorting the carriage Gu Xiyan was riding in.
He made the carriage slow down and deliberately fell behind, wondering who was on the other carriage.
Jiang Zhou successfully sent Gu Xiyan back to the Marquis Mansion and said a few words to Gu Xiyan.
Xu Yanqing saw the scene of Gu Xiyan and Jiang Zhou smiling and talking from a distance, and felt particularly complicated in her heart.
Logically speaking, Gu Xiyan had already made it clear to him that he was ruled out by Gu Xiyan, and he himself was not in love with Gu Xiyan.
But seeing her standing with other men, he suddenly felt the desire to rush forward and separate them.
Before he had time to think about it, he got off the carriage, squeezed in between Gu Xiyan and Jiang Zhou, and separated the two reluctant people.
"Miss Gu, what a coincidence, we meet here by chance." Xu Yanqing showed a charming smile, but glanced at Jiang Zhou, secretly sizing up this Jiang Zhou, and subconsciously comparing herself to him.
She is slightly shorter than him, her facial features are not as handsome as his, and she looks more honest and honest.
Looking at the clothes, it seems very ordinary.
Gu Xiyan was also surprised: "Master Xu, what a coincidence."
"Tell Mr. Xu a lot of points? We will be friends from now on. I call you Xiyan, and you call me Yanqing, okay?" Xu Yanqing smiled with phoenix eyes and looked at Gu Xiyan intently.
Gu Xiyan wondered when did she become Xu Yanqing's friend?
It's just that people said she can't hold it, right?
She was afraid of neglecting Jiang Zhou, so she said to Jiang Zhou: "Auntie is still waiting for Master Jiang. Master Jiang, please go back first. I have arrived home safely."
Jiang Zhou was a simple-minded person, unlike Xu Yanqing who had so many twists and turns in his mind, and it was even more impossible to see that Xu Yanqing was deliberately trying to confuse him.
"Girl, if you have time, you can go to the Military and Horse Division in the west of the city to find me. I'll go back first." Jiang Zhou got on the carriage.
After the Jiang family's carriage had gone away, Xu Yanqing asked, "Is this Mr. Jiang the girl's new crush?"
He thought Dong Yong was better than Jiang Zhou, so why did Gu Xiyan no longer continue to associate with Dong Yong?
He didn't know that Zhou Mu didn't like Dong Yong's critical remarks about Gu Xiyan at the beginning. He would rather find another man to meet Gu Xiyan than Gu Xiyan to date Dong Yong again.
Outsiders all thought that Emperor Cheng De was helping Gu Xiyan as a matchmaker, but the real matchmaker was actually Zhou Mu. Only the Emperor Cheng De, Zhou Mu and Gu Xiyan knew this.
"Xiyan, what do you think of Mr. Jiang?" Xu Yanqing asked casually.
Seeing the smile on his face, Gu Xiyan seemed to be just out of curiosity, so she told the truth: "Master Jiang is a simple person, and Aunt Jiang is also very kind. I think the Jiang family are all good."
Although she didn't speak to Jiang Fan, she felt the kindness conveyed by Jiang Fan.
The Jiang family are all honest people, and she doesn't find it tiring to deal with them.
Xu Yanqing's heart sank, and she asked again: "Are you in love with Jiang Zhou?"
Gu Xiyan did not deny it, but she was too embarrassed to answer yes, so she just smiled and acquiesced.
"I'm going back home first, Mr. Xu..."
Xu Yanqing interrupted her before she finished speaking: "We just agreed that from now on you will call me Yan Qing and I will call you Xi Yan, unless you don't like me as a friend."
Gu Xiyan was speechless for a moment. She always felt that it was inappropriate to call each other names like this.
Furthermore, men and women are ultimately different, and it is not polite to call each other's names.
"It's better to meet by chance than to meet by chance. How about I invite you to have dinner at Jixiang Tower?" Xu Yanqing saw that Gu Xiyan couldn't shout, but she didn't force her and simply extended the invitation.
Gu Xiyan didn't want to go to Jixiang Building anymore, so she declined: "No, I just came back and I'm a little tired..."
"How tired can you be from sitting in a carriage? I'll take you home after lunch. Let's go, let's go. I'm eating alone today and I'm lonely. You, my friend, can't push me away." Xu Yanqing said.
He pushed Gu Xiyan onto the carriage without moving a hand.
