Chapter 23 Your bottom line is too low
Wang Changyue, who was outside the door, heard it all clearly. Once A Ying showed up in the Marquis' Mansion and the Palace, he was afraid that he would never be able to touch A Ying again.

But Wang Changyue knew in his heart that this situation might be the best way out for Aying.

My mind was filled with confusion and I unconsciously walked to Yimeyuan.

Looking at the swaying lights in the Yime Courtyard, Wang Changyue's mind kept echoing with Ah Ying's words: "Brother Changyue..." She was so gentle and sad, and he was so helpless, which had become the deepest regret in Wang Changyue's heart.

"Young Master Wang?" Su Jianben was about to lock the door when she unexpectedly discovered Wang Changyue at the door.

Wang Changyue was distracted for a moment, "Oh, let's see if Miss Huo is asleep?"

Su Jian smiled and said, "Not yet. The tutor arranged by Nanny Su just left."

Wang Changyue nodded, "Is she feeling better?"

"Much better, thanks to Young Master Wang who sent people to patrol the area, so no one disturbed the girl." Su Jian said from the bottom of her heart.

"Okay, I'm glad you're okay." After all, it was night time, and men and women shouldn't touch each other, and it was such a sensitive time, so he better not to cause trouble.

After Su Jian entered the room, Ah Ying was still a little confused, "Why did you keep the door closed for so long?"

"Young Master Wang just stopped at the door for a while and said a few words." Su Jian replied simply.

Ah Ying's movements froze, "Wang Changyue?"

"Yes, young lady may not know that Young Master Wang has been working hard these days, delivering things to Yimeyuan and sending people to inspect our place. Otherwise, young lady would be very annoyed." Su Jian said with a smile, but Huo Aying paused for a while.

"Him? How could that be?" Huo Aying sneered coldly.

"Although Young Master Wang's surname is not Xie, he is wholeheartedly concerned about the Marquis's Mansion. The Marquis and the old lady both trust him very much." Over the years, even Su Jian recognized Wang Changyue's loyalty.

Huo Aying didn't feel the slightest bit. After all, she was kidnapped by him, and there was so much fighting when they first met. No matter how she begged him later, it was useless. She didn't have a good impression of him, really didn't have a good impression of him.

"Maybe he is really loyal to the Marquis' Mansion..." Aying didn't say the rest of the sentence, perhaps because she is not from the Marquis' Mansion.

She never felt that she was destined to be a noble person. It was normal for her to struggle in the mud and to curry favor with all kinds of people. She did not expect these noble men to treat her in any special way.

"Go to bed early, we'll be busy tomorrow." Once his mind was clear, Huo Aying no longer had any obsessions.

The next morning, Mother Wang sent someone to tell Huo Aying to go to Songhuayuan, and also sent some gorgeous clothes and jewelry.

Su Jian was stunned when she took the jewelry and tilted her head to look at Huo Aying.

"Thank you, Auntie Wang." Aying said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Mother Wang said politely, "Miss, pack up and go directly to Songhua Courtyard. This is the order of the Marquis."

"Yes." Since the Marquis had given the order, Aying had no reason to refuse.

After Mother Wang turned and left, Wang Changyue approached Huo Aying and whispered, "Don't be afraid, Madam won't embarrass you."

Huo Aying took a step back and said politely, "Thank you, Prince Wang."

Wang Changyue's patience had reached its limit, and with Ah Ying's cold treatment, he lost control of his emotions and shouted, "Ah Ying!"

Huo Aying sensed a different emotion in Wang Changyue's burning eyes, and turned to Su Jian and Shuang'er and said, "You go in first!"

Su Jian looked at Huo Aying anxiously, "Girl..."

"It's okay, don't worry." Huo Aying squeezed out a hint of bitterness to comfort him.

Outside the door, Huo Aying stood alone with his sleeves fluttering.

"Aying, I--" Wang Changyue said eagerly.

Huo Aying said coldly: "You don't have to say anything!"

"Can't you see that I like you?" Wang Changyue simply said it bluntly. If he kept it in his heart, he would go crazy.

Ah Ying stared into his eyes without any hesitation and said, "Like? Do you like me by abandoning me and sleeping with another man? Do you like me by ignoring my danger and being loyal to me?"

These two sentences made Wang Changyue stunned and speechless.

"Your bottom line is too low, I can't bear it!" Huo Aying showed no sadness or joy, and his tone did not reveal his emotions.

Wang Changyue, whose feelings were misunderstood by Huo Aying, seemed to have lost his mind. He put his arm around Aying, looked at her sincerely and promised: "At that time, I was helpless, but I really like you. I will ask the Marquis for marriage tomorrow. I want to marry you!"

Huo Aying felt a little pain from being pinched by Wang Changyue, but her eyes still looked straight into his, "Master Wang, don't be so moved. If you really wanted to do it regardless of the consequences, you would have done it long ago. Why wait until now? You are just acting like this because you feel that the feelings you have finally expressed have not been reciprocated."

Wang Changyue's words almost pierced his heart. He said with hurt in his eyes: "Why do you look at me like this?" Ah Ying smiled bitterly: "How do you think I should look at you?"

Wang Changyue, whose defense was almost broken, had a dim look in his eyes and slowly let go of A Ying, "I'm sorry..."

Huo Aying looked at Wang Changyue and said in a lighter tone, "Young Master Wang, I will remember your kindness in my heart. I hope you will leave me a way out."

Now that things had come to this, Prince Wang gradually regained his senses and once again said in a deep and silent voice, "I'm sorry..."

Looking at Wang Changyue's back, Ah Ying could feel his feelings, but if she ignored it, no one would be happy. And given her current situation, she couldn't enjoy herself.

"Su Jian, accompany me to Songhuayuan!" Huo Aying raised his hot eyes and said with an extremely determined look.

Jin Ling was waiting at the door early for Huo Aying.

"Miss Huo, please come in."

Huo Aying nodded slightly and walked in, holding up her skirt.

Open the curtain.

"Madam, Miss Huo is here." Jin Ling came to report.

Guan Yulan was accompanied by Mother Wang. She glanced at the door and said calmly, "Come in."

Huo Aying was very nervous and stood a few steps away. "Aying greets the Madam."

Guan Yulan's face was stern. When she first saw her, she was struck by her beauty, but now she felt that this woman's temperament was quite unconventional.

"Please sit down." Guan Yulan ordered.

Huo Aying sat down reluctantly.

"I called you here today to tell you a few things first." Guan Yulan swallowed the unhappiness in her heart and looked at Huo Aying coldly.

Huo Aying seemed unaware of this and looked at Guan Yulan with a faint smile. After all, she was the mistress of the house and had some style. Even if others liked her, it would be in vain if the mistress in front of her didn't like her. After she figured it out, she softened a lot and said, "Madam, just give me your orders."

"From now on, you are the niece of my mother's family in Qingzhou. Your father is Guan Jinbao and your mother is Huo Wenqiu. They make a living by picking tea in Wushan, Qingzhou, and do not live with the Guan family in Qingzhou. Because your parents died in a landslide some time ago, you came to Beijing to look for your relatives. Do you remember all this?" Guan Yulan said word by word clearly.

Huo Aying lowered his eyes, "Yes, Aying remembers."

"In the next few days, a nanny will explain the affairs of Qingzhou to you in detail. You must remember everything. In addition, three days later, you will go to the palace to meet Concubine Sheng and attend the banquet hosted by Princess Chuyi. There may be difficulties at this banquet, and you will need to resolve them carefully." Guan Yulan never thought that the matter would come to this point, but given the current situation, she could only pray that Huo Aying could turn the danger into safety and not cause any trouble for the Xie family.

This was something Huo Aying had not expected. She would actually enter the palace alone?
"Is there any problem?" Guan Yulan stared at Huo Aying's slightly hesitant expression.

Huo Aying was not afraid, but this was the palace, not an ordinary place to talk and make noise. If something she said was wrong, then she -

"Aying just feels that this task is arduous. Is there any room for relaxation?" Huo Aying asked tentatively.

After these words came out, Guan Yulan glanced at him with disdain, and said in great annoyance: "Ease? Who doesn't want to ease? If I had a way to stop you from going, why would I worry about it?"

Huo Aying: ... (Just go, why are you in such a hurry?)
"Aying will definitely follow Madam's instructions and do everything safely." Huo Aying immediately changed her tone. She didn't want to be scolded again.

Guan Yulan finally took a deep breath and frowned as she said, "As long as you can leave the palace safely, I promise you will have endless wealth and glory."

Wealth and splendor are not without appeal, but this pie is too far-fetched. It is best to be practical. "Aying thanks Madam for your trouble. If Aying leaves the palace safely, I hope Madam can reward Aying with some money."

Guan Yulan couldn't help but sneered: "Don't worry, as long as you leave the palace safely, I will reward you!"

After saying that, Youyou looked inside with a glance...

"Just money?" Guan Yulan stretched out her voice slightly.

Ah Ying couldn't help but laugh, what else could she want?
Want status?
Want status?
Don't overestimate your abilities. It's already a great achievement for her to live the rest of this filthy life without much hardship.

With a father like that, a mother like that, a brother like that, and herself like that, how could she dare to have any more delusions?

Ah Ying doesn't believe in the word love. She has been accustomed to the romantic world and the intrigues of wealthy families since she was a child. She believes that men's love is too thin, too perishable, and too insecure. Just like her mother, who believed in her father wholeheartedly, but in the end, she still ended up with a worthless life like a pile of mud.

If she had any aspirations, she had asked herself that the man she wanted must be upright, not look down on her because of her background, not abandon her because of power, not doubt her because of her behavior, not cheat her because of her age, and not play with her because of other women. Only in this way would she be willing to love someone. And no matter which of these, in the eyes of others, it was just a foolish dream, or even heresy.

Being far away in a foreign land with no one to rely on, all those dreams are nothing but a pipe dream. Just like one of my sisters said, people like them need beauty and brains to live freely. All she can do is to take root like weeds, grab every drop of water and nutrients and survive tenaciously!
So, he looked at Guan Yulan steadily and said word by word: "Yes! Ah Ying only wants the reward money!"
