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

While Mu Rong was talking to Mu Yi, there was a rush of footsteps outside the study.

No one is allowed to enter the study room of Xinghui Hall except Mu Yi, Mu Ai and other personal guards. The footsteps today are not from his personal guards.

"What's the matter?" Mu Rong asked in a deep voice.

"Yes... the concierge came up to report that the Lord of Ping'an County is visiting. I don't dare to delay, so I came here to ask for instructions from the Marquis." The person outside the door reported back.

When Mu Yi heard this, he was slightly startled: "Is... the eldest lady is here?"

In the Weiyuan Hou Mansion, Mu Rong and a few others used to call Xu Rongrong the eldest lady, while the rest of the people called her according to their official titles...Ping'an County Lord or County Lord.

So when he first heard that someone had come to report Xu Rongrong's visit, Mu Yi felt at a loss that he had heard wrong. After all, the number of times the eldest lady had set foot in the Hou Mansion was very few.

"Did she come with others? Or was she alone?" Mu Rong asked.

"When I return to the Marquis, the Lord of Ping County came alone, and...except for the coachman, he didn't bring anyone else with him."

A noble lady in the capital always takes her maid with her when traveling. Xu Rongrong's behavior today made Mu Yi a little confused.

Mu Rong was a little surprised at first, but he soon understood. He smiled slightly, stood up and took out a small box from the bookshelf on the side: "I think she came here for this matter."

Mu Yi didn't understand: "Master??"

Mu Rong looked at him: "I'll change my clothes first, and you can ask her to sit in the flower hall first."

"Yes."

Mu Rong opened his palms, looked at the slightly red palms, and shook his head helplessly.

Although the palms were flushed at this time, it was difficult to conceal the cold chill radiating from the palms.

He had just finished meditating and adjusting his breath. Not only had his energy not yet recovered, but the chill all over his body was even worse than usual...

Mu Rong took out a small medicine bottle and played with it in his hand - it contained pills left to him by Shu Qing, which could temporarily suppress the release of cold poison.

But Shu Qing had also warned him not to take this medicine multiple times in a row, and these days due to Prince Ning's affairs, he would take one before meeting Xu Rongrong, and he was afraid that he would not be able to take it again today.

But...she came here so easily, how could he avoid seeing her.

Thinking of this, he unscrewed the pill bottle and swallowed another pill.

I didn’t expect that he, a handsome man with great military exploits and great reputation, would need pills to get close to the girl he loves...

This will be Mu Rong's lingering resentment for a long time to come.

……

Xu Rongrong did come to the Marquis Mansion alone. Mu Yi followed the instructions of his Marquis and invited her into the flower hall opposite the Xinghui Hall.

But before entering the flower hall, she stopped.

Between the Xinghui Hall and the Flower Hall where Mu Rong lived, there was only a small long flowerbed. Now that the flowerbed had just been pruned, it felt like it was full of waste and waiting for work. This made Xu Rongrong feel an indescribable sourness in her heart. feeling.

In her previous life, she was not allowed to enter the Xinghui Hall. Whenever she wanted to see Mu Rong, she would hide in the lush flower garden and secretly watch his every move in the Xinghui Hall.

Sometimes when she saw that he was aware of something, she would huddle in the flower bed and remain motionless. Only when her legs and feet felt sore and numb would she secretly poke her head out to observe. But by then, he had long since disappeared from the Xinghui Hall. , she had to rub her sore legs and feet and sneak away quietly.

Thinking of how humble she was in her previous life, but in this life she had effortlessly obtained everything she had dreamed of in her previous life.

I have to say, it's really a trick of good fortune.

Mu Yi saw her standing in front of the flower hall like this, wondering what she was looking at for a long time, so he asked: "What do you think is wrong, Miss?"

Xu Rongrong finally came to her senses and said with a smile: "The Hou Mansion is carefully taken care of by Yi Changshi, so there is nothing wrong with it. I am just curious. It is the season when flowers are in full bloom. Why does this flower garden look a little withered? It seems like it’s not the time to prune branches and leaves right now?”

If the flower garden in her previous life was as withered as it is now, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to hide it...

"The eldest lady is absolutely right." Mu Yi said with a smile, "I believe the eldest lady has also heard that the Marquis does not like to take care of flowers and plants, so there is no dedicated gardener in the Marquis' mansion to take care of this matter. It turns out that the flower garden here is Mr. Xu was taking care of the flower beds in the backyard. Now he went to Zhuangzi in the southern suburbs to deal with the medicinal garden, so he didn't care about it anymore. His subordinates also saw that there was no order in the flowers and plants in the mansion, so they went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to find a gardener. processing, so it was delayed for some time."

The Mr. Xu Mu Yi mentioned was Xu Xiangnan, who had been working in the Hou Mansion until Mu Rong bought a house next to the Xu Mansion last year...

In order to be able to freely enter and leave the Xu Mansion, Mu Rong opened the wall between the two mansions based on Xu Chaoqian's love for elegance, built a small garden in it, and asked Xu Xiangnan to take care of it.

Although Xu Xiangnan was not a servant of the Hou Mansion, he knew that Mu Rong liked Xu Rongrong, and he was used to wandering around and wandering around. It didn't matter where he lived, as long as there were flowers and plants for him to take care of, so he went there happily.

Until Xu Rongrong left the Xu Mansion and went to Zhuangzi in the southern suburbs, Xu Xiangnan really didn't want to face that reckless man in front of Xu Chaoqian, so he followed him to Zhuangzi in the southern suburbs and continued to manage the medicinal garden for Xu Rongrong.

After being busy for a long time, I rarely even come to the capital, let alone go back to the Marquis Mansion to take care of the flower garden?

Xu Rongrong smiled and said: "I didn't expect that I was the one who made the mistake, but... there are so many servants in the Hou Mansion. Could it be that Mr. Xu has not cultivated one or two disciples in the Hou Mansion for so many years?"

In her previous life, Mr. Xu was very conscientious in teaching her how to grow medicinal herbs.

Mu Yi reported back: "The eldest lady doesn't know something. Mr. Xu doesn't like to interact with others. Even in the Hou Mansion, it is rare that he has any friendship with anyone. Not to mention training one or two disciples, he even just stands aside casually. He wouldn’t even want to give me a few words of advice.”

"Is this so?" Mu Yi's explanation surprised Xu Rongrong.

In her impression, Mr. Xu was not such a cold person. In his previous life, he took the initiative to help her after seeing her repeatedly planting herbal medicine illegally. Why was his personality so different from Mu Yi's description?

"However, that's not entirely the case." Mu Yi added, "Unless the Marquis comes forward to ask for advice, Mr. Xu has always been responsive to the Marquis's requests."

Hearing this, Xu Rongrong was stunned again.

Indeed, in this life, Mr. Xu went to the Xu Mansion to take care of the garden in response to Mu Rong's request.

In that past life... he taught me how to grow herbs. Could it be that he was also Mu Rong...

No, not possible.

At that time, Mu Rong refused her thousands of miles away, so how could he ask someone to teach her how to grow herbs?

Just as she was thinking about it, Mu Rong had already walked out of Xinghui Hall.

Because in his own house, Mu Rong only wore a green gown, with a jade hairpin casually attached to his bun. He looked more elegant and handsome, and less of the murderous aura that he was used to seeing.

He looked at Xu Rongrong opposite, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and everything he saw was tenderness.

But the little girl seemed unaware of all this and kept thinking until he stood next to her.

"If Rong Rong likes this flower garden, it is better to enter the mansion earlier. Then you can watch it in Xinghui Hall every day."

Xu Rongrong was slightly startled and turned her head to face those slightly teasing eyes.

"If Rong Rong is in a hurry, I will immediately go to the palace and ask for His Majesty's decree to allow us to get married half a month in advance, okay?"

Xu Rongrong's cheeks were slightly red: "Master Hou, don't talk nonsense, I'm in a hurry..."

"Okay, it's not that Rong Rong is in a hurry, it's that I'm in a hurry to marry Rong Rong back."

Xu Rongrong: "..."

She subconsciously threw out a sword, but for Mu Rong, who was full of joy at this time, the sword was not half lethal.

After all, the sun is shining brightly now, and the person who has been waiting for a long time is standing next to him.

Nothing could be happier than this.
