The reborn sweet girl always wants to escape, but the abstinent prince hugs her and coaxes her!

That night, Lin Jiaoyue was also filled with resentment.

Mu Rong's heartless words kept echoing in her ears.

She returned to the Lin Mansion in confusion, and entered the inner courtyard with the help of her maid with a pale face.

Lin Hanshi had already received the news and had been waiting here.Because of her frailty, she was unable to accompany her father and daughter to the palace for the banquet, but such a big matter as Marquis Weiyuan's request for marriage could not be hidden from her.

"Jiaojiao, what is going on? How could the Marquis marry someone else?"

Lin Jiaoyue bit her lip and shook her head.

Lin Hanshi asked her husband again: "Sir, where did Xu Chaoqian come from? Why did a person like Xu Rongrong suddenly appear in the capital?"

Lin Zhihen also frowned, with a look of impatience on his face: "A sixth-grade court councilor from the Ministry of Etiquette is not even qualified to attend court meetings. This is the first time I have seen him today."

After a pause, he caught a glimpse of his daughter's expression, which became even uglier: "What's going on? Haven't you already captured Mu Rong? The incident today shows that he is not of the same mind as you. Without his help, It will be difficult for the Fourth Highness to succeed."

Lin Jiaoyue felt a dull pain in her heart, and hearing Lin Zhihen's words added another layer of embarrassment: "Father, don't worry, my daughter will definitely find out what happened tonight."

Lin Zhihen said "You'd better figure it out" and walked away.

After he left, only mother and daughter were left in the room.

Lin Hanshi brushed her daughter's hair and sighed: "Jiaojiao, why are you doing this? You and the Marquis have been sweethearts since childhood, and he has a soft spot for you. You ask him to go east, but he never goes west. You asked him to keep the secret between the two of you, and no one in the capital knew about your relationship. If you hadn't listened to your father and insisted on getting together with the fourth prince, maybe you and the Marquis would even have children at this moment. ”

"My mother's words are quite short-sighted. Her daughter has been determined to be the best woman in the world since she was a child! Although it is good to marry Mu Rong, her daughter is just a female member of his family. She can be awarded a second-grade imperial edict despite the odds. But if To help the fourth prince succeed, he will definitely rely on us if he does not have a powerful mother clan. In the future, the world of Great Zhou will be in the hands of my Lin family."

"But while you were recruiting the Marquis for your use, you were also trying to use his power to help the fourth prince succeed. How could he not notice this? Now that the Marquis has married another woman, my mother is afraid that you will end up losing both your life and career."

Her mother's words struck a chord in Lin Jiaoyue.

It was hard to tell which one made her more heartbroken, losing Mu Rong as a person or losing Mu Rong as a helper.

She gritted her teeth and said, "I will definitely make him change his mind."

……

This night, Mu Rong was also very busy.

The marriage proposal came suddenly. Looking back on Xu Rongrong's reaction just now, it was clear that he was unwilling. He was determined to guide her slowly, but there was a military order to patrol the camp in the western suburbs tomorrow, so all arrangements had to be completed tonight.

In Mu Rong's study, Chief Shi Muyi stood at the lower left, Deputy General Mu Ai stood at the lower right, and the remaining guards lined up in front of his desk.

They were not surprised that the Marquis settled on Madam Hou after a Chinese Valentine's Day banquet. After all, the Marquis was over twenty, and the Marquis's residence could not remain without a female dependent.

But this Mrs. Hou was not Lin Jiaoyue, Princess Qingyang, but the daughter of a sixth-rank official whom they had never heard of, which surprised them.

"Sir, Miss Xu... what methods did she use..." Chang Shi Muyi probed.

"It's my own use." Mu Rong replied.

...Everyone looked at Mu Ai and asked with their eyes: You are the only one following me tonight, what is going on?

Mu Ai calmly spread his hands: I don’t know more than you, and I’m too tired to talk at the moment!

However, I personally went to the Xu Mansion but was rejected by Miss Xu. I can explain it to everyone in the future.

Mu Rong was naturally aware of the eyelid lawsuits among his subordinates.

He said seriously:

"No need to speculate! What happened today was not impulsive. I sincerely want to marry you. As for the reason..."

Everyone pricked up their ears.

"There is no need for me to tell you."

Everyone: "..."

"You just need to remember that since Miss Xu was begged by me in front of His Majesty, she will be the mistress of Weiyuan Hou Mansion in the future. You must not neglect her!"

"Yes!"

Then Mu Rong arranged the matters at hand one by one, and only after Dongfang confessed, did he order everyone to retreat.

For the first time, he wasn't looking forward to returning to the military camp.

……

Yesterday's banquet consumed a lot of Xu Rongrong's energy and physical strength.

When she woke up in the morning light, she was still confused.

Luo Shu was waiting outside the house, and when he heard the noise, he came in to serve.

After a cup of tea, Xu Rongrong regained some energy and asked Luo Shu: "How is your brother's place?"

"My brother's car dealership has a branch near Honglu Temple, which is very close to Luming Street. After the servant told my brother what the young lady wanted to find out, he asked the shopkeeper to transfer him to the car dealership there. It should be done soon. You can get the news.”

Luo Qiu has a quick mind, so Xu Rongrong will know immediately if there is a house for sale on Luming Street.

She nodded and said, "Okay, I'll think of a way for you to come in and out more easily."

The eldest girl next to the female family members cannot leave the house at will. Xu Rongrong is waiting to be married, and the people around her are not free. It is difficult to go in and out at will to deliver news.

She rubs her forehead.

Luo Shu brought tea: "I heard... that you were married to General Weiyuan Hou Mu at the banquet yesterday?"

Hearing the words "Marquis Weiyuan", Xu Rongrong's head hurt even more, and she muttered: "Yes."

Luo Shu was puzzled: "Isn't this a good thing? The young lady has been in love with Marquis Weiyuan for so long, but why is she unhappy now that His Majesty has granted her a marriage?"

Xu Rongrong laughed at herself: "That was because I was blinded by lard before, but now... well, let's not mention it!"
