If she had known this, she should have revealed her identity as soon as she went up the mountain.

Although there were some discrepancies in the process, the result was good.

Because of General Xiao's support, Luo Sibao finally decided to leave Qiao Jun alone in the capital, and he left Dayangzhuang with all his brothers five days later.

Qiao Jun sent the people to the village entrance and watched the group of people riding away on horseback, raising clouds of dust. He felt worried, but he could only bear it.

"Don't worry, he will be back in a month at most."

Xiao Ruge comforted Qiao Jun. Qiao Jun nodded and followed Mu Gu and Xiao Ruge back.

"Second Miss Xiao!"

Just when they were about to go back, a familiar voice sounded from behind them, which made Xiao Ruge's face as dark as the bottom of a pot. He couldn't understand why he met Zhu Chengxi here.

That’s right, it’s Zhu Chengxi.

When he saw Xiao Ruge, Zhu Chengxi ran over quickly. He looked at the person in front of him with great joy and put the lotus he had just picked into Xiao Ruge's arms.

"Miss Xiao Er, we are really destined to meet. I didn't expect to meet you here! This is for you. I just picked it!"

Qiao Jun knew that he had met an acquaintance. In order not to attract attention, he quietly took two steps back and stood with Sun Yan and others.

Xiao Ruge looked at Zhu Chengxi with a headache. Before she could say anything, Mu Gu stretched out his arm and took the lotus.

"Your Highness also likes this flower. Thank you very much, Mr. Zhu Liu."

As he spoke, Mu Gu bent down and smelled the lotus. It was indeed fragrant and pleasant, but because Zhu Chengxi was going to give it to Xiao Ruge, he felt that the fragrance was a bit pungent.

Seeing Mu Gu and Xiao Ruge together, Zhu Chengxi widened his eyes in shock, but still bowed to Mu Gu.

"Meet His Majesty the Seventh Prince. Why is His Majesty the Seventh Prince with Miss Xiao Er?"

Zhu Chengxi revealed Mu Gu's identity, which surprised Qiao Jun who was hiding in the crowd.

He didn't expect that Mu Gu was actually the seventh prince of the dynasty!

Thinking that he and Luo Sibao had already joined this man, his brows suddenly furrowed.

Looking at the stupidity clear in his eyes, Mu Gu didn't have the heart to criticize him. Just when he was about to say that he was pursuing Xiao Ruge, he was interrupted by Xiao Ruge.

"We just met by chance, just like meeting Master Zhu Liu here."

Mu Gu did not refute, but unhappily tore off the petals of the lotus in his hand and looked at Zhu Chengxi coldly.

Her eyes, which were originally full of affection, were now covered with frost, and a glare from her made people look frightened.

Although Zhu Chengxi was a playboy, he knew who he could offend and who he could not offend.

Like Mu Gu in front of him, he cannot offend anyone.

Even if Mu Gu was just an unpopular prince, he was still beyond his reach.

However, when he saw the person he liked, Zhu Chengxi still wanted to fight for it, so he asked weakly: "I wonder if His Highness the Seventh Prince and Miss Xiao can take me with them? It's really boring for me to travel alone."

Xiao Ruge glanced at Mu Gu, and as if thinking of something, she nodded in agreement.

So Zhu Chengxi and his servants were added to the group, and the team suddenly expanded a lot.

When walking back, Xiao Ruge asked Zhu Chengxi curiously, "Why are you here?"

Zhu Chengxi smiled and replied, "I was under too much control at home, so I came out to relax. Where's Miss Xiao Er? Why are you here?"

"Just like you, I was bored at home, so I went to the farm to stay for a few days."

Xiao Ruge saw there were boats in the pond, so she suggested that everyone go boating to pick lotus and lotus pods. So a group of people found a few boats and rowed to the lotus pond to play.

Because the boat was small and couldn't accommodate many people, Zhu Chengxi originally wanted to be on the same boat with Xiao Ruge, but after being glared at by Mu Gu, he finally went to another boat with his head down.

Sun Yan rowed the boat at the stern, and the boat slowly swam towards the center of the pond.

Mu Gu glared at Zhu Chengxi who was following him with some displeasure, and asked Xiao Ruge in a low voice, "Why is this guy still so enthusiastic about you? You disciplined him so much before, but he still didn't give up his love for you?"

Xiao Ruge lay on the side of the boat, stretched out her hand to touch the water in the pool, and said with a smile: "Zhu Chengxi is a stubborn person. It's not easy to make him change his mind once he has made up his mind."

At this point, she suddenly remembered something, turned around and glared at Mu Gu and asked, "How do you know that I disciplined Zhu Chengxi before? Are you following me?"

Mu Gu was embarrassed for a moment when his past deeds were exposed, but he quickly regained his composure and smiled at Xiao Ruge.

"Last time you went to Third Brother's house to enjoy the flowers, and I happened to be leaving when you were leaving, and I accidentally saw him pestering you."

"The Seventh Prince's Mansion and the Xiao Family don't seem to be on the same street, right? How can it be so convenient?"

Xiao Ruge scooped up a handful of water and splashed it at Mu Gu angrily. She wanted to kick this man off the boat.

Mu Gu did not hide or evade, letting the pool water wet his clothes. He smiled and sat down next to Xiao Ruge, picking a lotus leaf to block the sunlight for her.

"I can't help myself, Ruge, please don't be angry, okay?"

"Seventh Prince, please keep your distance from my young lady. There are outsiders here!"

Sun Yan sat at the stern of the boat, staring at Mu Gu with a gloomy face. If it weren't for his status, Sun Yan would have beaten Mu Gu up long ago.

Mu Gu glanced at Zhu Chengxi who had been staring at this side, stuffed the lotus leaf in his hand to Xiao Ruge, stood up and sat further away from her.

Zhu Chengxi came to show his courtesy again at this time and threw all the picked lotus flowers and lotus pods onto Xiao Ruge's boat.

With a sunburned face, he smiled and asked, "Miss Xiao Er, are these enough? If not, I'll go pick more!"

"That's enough. I can go back and make lotus seed soup now. If Mr. Zhu Liu is not in a hurry, why don't you come back to the farm with me and have a bowl of lotus seed soup before leaving!"

Xiao Ruge secretly glanced at Mu Gu, and with a calm expression, invited Zhu Chengxi.

Zhu Chengxi was so happy that he almost jumped up, and nodded in agreement immediately.

"No hurry, no hurry, I'm just a little hungry!"

Mu Gu was a little unhappy and asked aggrievedly: "Ruge, why did you invite him?"

Xiao Ruge picked up the lotus pods and shook them. "After all, he picked so many lotus pods for me. I should thank him, right?"

Mu Gu pouted and didn't look at her angrily. When he turned around, he saw that Sun Yan also looked very bad, so he leaned over and winked at Sun Yan.

"The conflict between us is internal, and now there are external factors. Should we join forces to resolve the external factors first?"

Sun Yan also looked down on Zhu Chengxi. After hearing what Mu Gu said, he nodded in agreement without even thinking.

He didn't want his young lady to be seduced by such a playboy.

So after the boat got off the shore, Mu Gu and Sun Yan walked on Xiao Ruge's left and right, while Zhu Chengxi was squeezed to the back, like a little follower.
