Start practicing from marrying the disfigured princess

Ren Pingsheng was startled when he saw the determined look in the eyes of the girl in front of him.

She was as delicate as a willow in the wind, but she was so stubborn in her bones.

After a few seconds of silence, he nodded slightly: "Miss Mu is right. The affairs of the Mu Mansion have nothing to do with this prince. This prince should not meddle in other people's business."

As he said, he let go of her hand.

It was not until then that Mu Rou realized that Ren Pingsheng was so close to her, but she didn't feel disgusted.

"Prince, the carriage is ready."

At this time, the guard came to report.

Ren Pingsheng nodded slightly and looked at Mu Rou, his expression was neither happy nor sad, and he asked indifferently: "Miss Mu, are you going to walk by yourself or take a carriage?"

If it was just now, Mu Rou would definitely choose the latter.

But now...

She did not hesitate at all, and said in a cold voice: "Don't bother your Highness, I will go by myself."

"Okay."

Ren Pingsheng looked at the guard and ordered: "Send the carriage back and prepare the horse for this prince."

"Yes!"

The guard took the order and turned to leave.

Mu Rou pursed her lips, looked at Qiu'er behind her, and said softly: "Qiu'er, let's go."

Although Qiu'er didn't want her young lady to go to the emperor, she couldn't bear to see her dragging her sick body to the palace alone.

After hesitating for a while, she still stepped forward to support her, and advised: "Miss, let's not go."

Aside.

Ren Pingsheng said: "If you don't support her, she may not be able to walk to Sajin Street."

"..."

Hearing this, Qiu'er was slightly startled.

It seems...that's the truth.

Ren Pingsheng looked at Mu Rou: "If you don't want to implicate others, go to the emperor by yourself, why drag a little maid with you."

Mu Rou ignored him and looked at Qiu'er with a gentle look: "Sister Qiu'er, are you willing to go with me?"

Qiu'er's pretty face showed a tangled look, raised her eyes to look at Ren Pingsheng, and saw him nod slightly, as if she understood something.

"Even if I don't go, the prince will take care of the young lady."

Thinking of this, she no longer hesitated and shook her head gently: "I won't go."

"..."

Mu Rou's eyes dimmed, and she said no more, turned around and walked towards the mansion gate.

After a few breaths.

She walked out of Ren's mansion, moved lightly with lotus steps, and slowly walked towards the palace.

Ren Pingsheng jumped on the horse and followed her side without saying a word.

The breeze blew a strand of hair at Mu Rou's temples, and the light-colored Luo skirt swayed slightly.

The delicate body couldn't stand the cold wind.

She stopped, covered her chest, and coughed violently.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem, ahem..."

Ren Pingsheng pulled the reins, stopped the horse, and looked down at her.

After half an incense stick.

Mu Rou gradually recovered, took gentle steps, and continued to move towards the palace.

Ren Pingsheng still rode the horse, followed her side, and watched her move forward with difficulty, and doubts arose in his heart.

"As the heir of the Tianshi Mansion, doesn't she have any cultivation?

If so, why did the old Tianshi accept her as a disciple and let her be the heir? Is it just because of her stubborn personality?"

While thinking about it, they walked and stopped, and unknowingly, they had arrived at Sajin Street.

Mu Rou walked more and more difficultly. Every few steps, she had to stop and rest for a while. She was really tearful and panting.

Ren Pingsheng followed behind her on horseback without panic.

Passersby felt strange when they saw this scene, but they didn't think much about it.

In this world, there are all kinds of strange things, and this is nothing.

Time passed by minute by minute.

In the blink of an eye, more than half an hour had passed.

Mu Rou had not even finished half of the journey.

The ends of her hair were wet with sweat, and they were messy and stuck to her smooth forehead. Her slightly pale and delicate face, under the reflection of the sun, was glowing with a faint halo like porcelain.

Her soft and slender waist was quietly bent down.

She had not moved for a long time.

Ren Pingsheng rode on the horse, leisurely, looked at the sky, and muttered to himself: "I am worrying too much. At this speed, I am afraid that I may not reach the palace even after curfew."

As soon as the voice fell.

Mu Rou raised her head slightly and glanced at him, her long eyelashes trembling slightly.

After a few seconds.

She bit her pink lips, straightened her waist, and continued to move forward.

Another breeze blew by.

She frowned and coughed.

"Cough cough cough cough..."

It was the most prosperous section of Sajin Street.

Some people saw this scene and couldn't help but be alert, muttering with disgust: "Could it be tuberculosis?"

As soon as these words came out.

The passers-by around were all startled and looked up.

The girl's lips were pale, her face was bloodless, and she kept coughing... Isn't this the characteristic of tuberculosis?

"What bad luck!"

Someone spat, quickened his pace, and left here.

Although most people didn't say anything, they also silently distanced themselves from her.

In just a few breaths of time.

Only Ren Pingsheng was left around Mu Rou.

"Don't go over there, stay away from her!"

"Where did tuberculosis come from? Why don't you stay at home and run around?"

"It's disgusting."

"What a thing, he... tui."

"..."

Various disgusting sounds came one after another in her ears.

In a trance.

Mu Rou seemed to have returned to her childhood.

On the way home from school.

Those boys circled in a circle and pointed at her.

"Freak! Freak!"

"Go back! Go back!"

"Cough cough cough cough cough..."

Mu Rou bent her waist, half squatted on the ground, and curled up into a small ball.

Because of the violent coughing, two lines of tears flowed from her eyes and slid down her pale cheeks.

An unspeakable fear and uneasiness surged in her heart.

The childish voice of "Freak" kept ringing in her ears and echoed for a long time.

Her mind was blank, and there was only one thought in her heart: "Save me, who can save me..."

As time passed, the helpless emotion almost drowned her.

At this time.

A pair of big hands picked her up from the ground, patted her back gently, and helped her breathe.

Immediately afterwards.

A familiar voice sounded in her ears.

"Don't be afraid, it's okay, take a deep breath."

The gentle tone was like a ray of light, dispelling the childish but malicious voice.

At this moment, she seemed to be pulled out of the water by a pair of big hands after drowning, and breathed fresh air again.

The helplessness, uneasiness and despair in her heart gradually dissipated.

Following the rhythm of the voice in her ear, she took a deep breath and then exhaled.

After a few breaths, she finally stopped coughing, and her frown gradually relaxed.

Ren Pingsheng gently patted Mu Rou's back and soothed her. Seeing her gradually returning to normal, his heart finally settled down.

"I almost went too far..."

Ren Pingsheng breathed a sigh of relief, and was a little scared.

If Mu Rou really died in front of him, not to mention how the Tianshi Mansion would retaliate against him, even he himself would regret it for the rest of his life.

"Cough cough..."

Gradually recovering from the painful memories, Mu Rou clearly felt the warm touch brushing across her back, as if there was an electric current passing through, numb and indescribable.

After a few breaths.

She realized that it was not Qiu'er who soothed her, but Ren Pingsheng, the prince of Zhenbei.

Her brows were slightly frowned, and she wanted to push him away, but her hands seemed to be out of control, a little soft, and pressed against the other's chest, like a young couple flirting, trying to resist but also welcoming.

After a while, she regained the familiar feeling, and disgust surged in her heart, and her tone was stiff: "Let me go."

"Okay."

Ren Pingsheng nodded slightly and took away the hand that was stroking her back.

At this moment, for some reason, Mu Rou felt empty in her heart.

But the next second, she returned to normal, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth with her hand, looked at Ren Pingsheng with cold eyes, and said in a flat tone: "Thank you, Prince."

After that, she turned around and continued to walk towards the palace.

When Ren Pingsheng saw this scene, his eyes twitched, and he couldn't help but complain in his heart: "This little Taoist priest is a donkey, so stubborn!

No, I can't follow her anymore, otherwise she can really kill herself."

Thinking of this, he made up his mind, stepped forward, and picked her up without saying anything.

"You, what are you doing!"

Mu Rou was startled by Ren Pingsheng's sudden action, and the whole person froze in his arms, motionless like a sculpture.

"This prince is also going to the palace, and I'll give you a ride on the way."

As he said that, he gently put her on the horse's back.

"Put me down."

Mu Rou was riding on the horse, her tone was stiff, and she was clearly resisting, but because her voice was too soft, it sounded like she was acting like a spoiled child.

Ren Pingsheng ignored him, climbed on the horse, and said to himself: "Hold on to your clothes, don't blame me if you fall off."

After that, he didn't care what Mu Rou said at all, pulled the reins, and controlled the horse to move towards the palace.

After spending a few days with this little Taoist priest.

He finally understood.

This person is a person who doesn't eat soft things, and doesn't eat hard things.

In this case, just ignore what she thinks and get things done first.

If she really doesn't appreciate it.

At worst, he can write a letter to the old Taoist priest to explain the situation, and it's nothing more than waiting a little longer to practice the Yin-Yang Heart Sutra.

As the horse's speed gets faster and faster.

Instinctively, Mu Rou hugged Ren Pingsheng's waist. The sound of the wind whistled past her ears, but she felt nothing on her face because she had a broad back in front of her to block the wind.

"He... why is he so annoying!

We are only friends for a short time, why does he have to care about me!

What does it have to do with him?!"

Mu Rou held the cloth around Ren Pingsheng's waist tightly with both hands, and her lavender skirt swayed in the wind, just like her mood at the moment.

…………

Half an hour later.

In front of the palace gate.

Ren Pingsheng pulled the reins.

"Huh..."

The horse stopped in place.

Ren Pingsheng turned his head and glanced at Mu Rou.

The little Taoist priest had a cold face and pouted slightly, looking like a person who was wronged but still stubborn and silent, like a punching bag.

Seeing Ren Pingsheng looking at her, she turned her face away and didn't look at him.

Seeing this scene, Ren Pingsheng smiled and turned over to get off the horse.

He patted the horse's head and said, "Wait for me here, don't move."

After that, he walked towards the palace gate without looking back.

Mu Rou was riding on the horse, looking at Ren Pingsheng's back, and was slightly startled.

"He left me on the horse and ignored me?"

Just as she was in a trance, she heard Ren Pingsheng muttering to himself: "I almost forgot about the little master."

Seeing Ren Pingsheng come back, her heart instantly calmed down a lot.

But.

Seeing Ren Pingsheng looking at her, she turned her face away and looked in another direction.

After a few seconds.

Ren Pingsheng returned to the front, took a look at the little Celestial Master sitting motionless on the horse, and asked with a smile: "Could it be that the little Celestial Master likes the feeling of riding a horse? Why don't you get down?"

On horseback.

The little Heavenly Master turned his face away, pursed his lips, and his eyelashes trembled slightly, wanting to curse.

"Is it possible that I can't get off?" Ren Pingsheng asked again.

The little Celestial Master's shoulders were trembling slightly, obviously trying to endure a certain emotion.

She has been frail and sick since she was a child. She always rides a carriage or sedan wherever she goes, and has never ridden a horse.

He can't mount or dismount his horse.

He obviously asked knowingly.

"Do you want help?" Ren Pingsheng asked again.

The little Celestial Master's eyelashes trembled but he didn't speak.

"Just don't want it."

Ren Pingsheng said, turning around to leave.

Mu Rou's heart trembled, and she subconsciously looked at Ren Pingsheng, and saw that he was looking at her with a face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

"..."

Seeing this scene, a faint blush appeared on Mu Rou's pale face, and she felt ashamed and annoyed in her heart.

This was the first time she had been teased like this since her father died and she was adopted by her uncle.

But I don't know why, but I don't feel disgusted, just angry.

The next second.

She turned her face away again, looked aside, and made up her mind that no matter what Ren Pingsheng said, she would not look at him.

Thinking this way, a few breaths later.

She suddenly felt a big hand wrap around her waist.

Immediately afterwards, most of his body was suspended in the air, and in just a moment, he was placed on the ground. The movements were gentle and there was no feeling of discomfort at all.

"I'm not seeking justice from His Majesty. Let's go, Miss Mu."

A familiar voice sounded in my ears, so close that it seemed as if it was spoken against my earlobe.

According to common sense.

At this time, I will definitely feel disgusted, even nauseated, and no matter what, I will feel uncomfortable all over.

But I don’t know why.

At this moment, apart from being a little awkward, she felt nothing else in her heart.

Maybe it's because this guy is so hateful that he has become numb.

Mu Rou thought this and followed him silently towards the palace gate without saying a word.

After half a stick of incense.

The two came to the palace gate. Before they could speak, they heard the guard say: "The Holy One has ordered that all the disciples of the Tianshi Mansion will not be seen."

"..."

Mu Rou was silent for a few seconds and then spoke softly: "Mu Rou from the Mu Mansion, please see the Holy Master."

The guard glanced at her sideways and said in a cold tone: "The Holy One has decreed that Mu Ying is corrupt and perverts the law. All relatives will sit together. If you are from Mu Mansion, you should be in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment now."

Mu Rou opened her mouth and wanted to say something else.

aside.

Ren Pingsheng suddenly said: "Don't mess around, do you want to be thrown into the prison of the Ministry of Punishment?"

Hearing this, Mu Rou fell silent, but did not leave, still standing where she was.

After a while, she spoke again: "My uncle was wrongly accused. He is a good official."

The guard looked forward and didn't bother to pay attention to her at all.

When Mu Rou saw this scene, her eyes dimmed for a moment. After a few seconds, she spoke again: "Your Majesty doesn't want to see me, so I will stay here."

The guard glanced at her sideways and said calmly: "Please do so."

Mu Rou pursed her lips and stood still, motionless.

"This is not only stubborn, but also a bit stupid...what did the Heavenly Master think of choosing such a stubborn little donkey to be the successor of the Heavenly Master's Mansion?"

Ren Pingsheng looked at Mu Rou beside him and sighed helplessly.

He turned to look at the guard and said, "The Prince of Zhenbei, Ren Pingsheng, would like to see Your Majesty."

The guard looked at Ren Pingsheng, his tone softened a lot, and replied: "The Holy Emperor has ordered that the prince can enter the palace, but he is not allowed to go near Yong'an Palace, let alone have a private meeting with Princess Yunhe."

"?"

When Mu Rou heard this, she turned to look at Ren Pingsheng with a strange expression.

Why did the emperor specifically tell him not to have a private meeting with Princess Yunhe?

Could it be that before this, he often harassed Yunhe Princess?

"He is indeed a frivolous person."

The Little Heavenly Master thought of what had happened just now, and mentally labeled Ren Pingsheng. He withdrew his gaze and continued to stand.

now.

The weather was gloomy, with thick clouds all over the sky.

The wind was cold and raging in front of the palace gate in the wilderness.

The girl's lavender skirt swayed slightly like falling hibiscus flowers, and the black hair on her temples fell from the corner of her mouth.

A chill came from the bottom of my heart.

The formerly rosy face turned pale again.

Her delicate body was like a slender flower branch in the wind, trembling slightly.

"I obey the decree."

After Ren Pingsheng saluted, he did not enter the palace. Instead, he untied the belt around his waist, took off his outer robe, and put it on Mu Rou's shoulders.

A strong masculine scent came to my face.

Mu Rou's heart trembled, with a trace of panic in her eyes. She looked at Ren Pingsheng, wanting to push him away.

Before he could take action, he lowered his voice and said, "I'm counting on you to translate the Dual Cultivation Technique for me, so wrap it up well and don't turn around and freeze to death at the door."

After saying that, he faced the surprised looks of the guards very openly and said calmly: "Do you have any extra robes?"

"this……"

The guards looked at each other, not knowing how to respond.

at this time.

A centurion wearing a flying fish uniform came over, holding a clean robe in his hand, handed it to him, and said with a smile: "This robe is not cheap. Next time you drink, please don't forget to return it." Give me."

Ren Pingsheng looked at the centurion and found that he was a familiar face. They had drank together in Zuihua Pavilion.

The middle and senior officers of the Forbidden Army are all served by the children of Wu Xun.

Meeting someone you know is normal.

It's a pity that Ren Pingsheng forgot his name.

"Okay, I'll treat you to a drink in a few days."

He took the robe, pretended to be friendly and exchanged a few words, then walked into the palace gate.

Outside the palace gate.

Mu Rou wore Ren Pingsheng's robe and watched him drift away, slightly dazed.

After struggling for a long time, he finally did not drop the robe, letting it hang on his shoulders and wrap around his body.

…………

I haven't been to the palace for several days.

As Ren Pingsheng walked in the square, he actually felt a bit cordial.

Recalling what the guard said just now, a thoughtful look appeared on his face.

"The emperor has not allowed me to see my sister-in-law. There must be a reason...

Could it be that his sister-in-law raided the carriage at night last time and he knew about it? "

Thinking of this, Ren Pingsheng paused in his steps and felt a chill in his heart.

"Forget it, it's a blessing, not a curse. It's a curse that can't be avoided...just do whatever you want."

Ren Pingsheng sighed in his heart and walked towards Qianqing Palace.

After a while.

He came to the door of the study room of Qianqing Palace and said loudly: "I, the Prince of Zhenbei, Ren Pingsheng, would like to see your Majesty!"

The words fell.

Emperor Zhaowu's voice came from inside.

"allow."

Immediately afterwards.

Ren Pingsheng opened the curtain, walked in, stood upright and bowed.

"I see your Majesty."

Emperor Zhaowu sat on the dragon throne, looked at the memorial presented by the cabinet, and asked calmly: "What's the matter?"

Ren Pingsheng said: "I am here for the Mu Ying case."

Emperor Zhaowu looked up at him and stretched out his hand.

behind.

Wang Zheng hurriedly handed over the imperial brush dipped in vermilion.

After Emperor Zhaowu took it, he marked the memorial and said casually: "Continue."

"yes!"

Ren Pingsheng said seriously: "I think there is something fishy about Mu Ying's case. He is a small doctor, even if he has great courage, he would not dare to embezzle five million taels of silver. Therefore, there must be someone behind him. The Lord’s messenger.

The Jin Yiwei searched for three days but found no stolen silver in the Mu Mansion, which just confirmed what I thought. As expected, the money was delivered to the envoy. "

Emperor Zhaowu said calmly: "Why can't Mu Ying hide it and leave it to future generations?"

Ren Pingsheng said: "Your Majesty is wise, of course there is such a possibility, but I think it is unreasonable and unlikely."

"how do I say this?"

"If it's one hundred thousand taels, or even five hundred thousand taels, and he keeps it privately for future generations, that's fine. But this is five million taels of silver. He's greedy for so much silver because he wants to leave it to future generations so that they can rebel. ?"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Zhaowu's hand holding the imperial pen froze slightly.

The next second, he returned to normal, put down the memorial in his hand, raised his eyes and looked at Ren Pingsheng: "What does the Mu Ying case have to do with you? Why are you so concerned about it?"

Ren Pingsheng raised his head slightly, with an awe-inspiring look: "I feed the emperor's salary and bear the emperor's worries. I heard that your majesty was worried about these five million taels of silver, and felt sad. I wanted to share your worries for your majesty. That's all."

"Don't have any other ideas?" Emperor Zhaowu pointed out something.

"have!"

Ren Pingsheng was frank and said seriously: "I am your Majesty's son-in-law, and Your Majesty is my Mount Tai. It is only natural that my son-in-law pleases Mount Tai."

Emperor Zhaowu: "..."

After a few seconds of silence.

He spoke again: "I'm afraid it's not me you want to please, but someone else."

Ren Pingsheng said: "Your Majesty is really a wise man. He can see through my thoughts at a glance. In addition to pleasing your Majesty, I also want to please the little heavenly master Mu Rou so that I can get the method of dual cultivation from her and practice with the princess."

Emperor Zhaowu obviously didn't expect him to be so candid. He was startled at first, then showed an angry look on his face. He suppressed his anger and said word by word: "I said, you are not allowed to approach Yong'an Palace without my will! You are not allowed to approach. Yunhe!”

What he said out loud was gentle enough, but in fact, he was already yelling in his heart: You bitch! You are still thinking about dual cultivation, why don’t you want to go to heaven?

Your father is such a dedicated person, how could he give birth to a dissolute person like you who always thinks about having sex with women!

"?"

Ren Pingsheng looked confused: "What does the practice of your Highness Chang An have to do with His Highness Yunhe?"

The words fell.

Emperor Zhaowu's expression suddenly froze on his face, and he was silent for a while before slowly speaking: "You are quite honest."

At this moment, Ren Pingsheng came to his senses and his expression became a little weird.

Emperor Zhaowu just thought I was talking about Yunhe?

How could he think so.

How can you be a father like this?

"In front of Your Majesty, I only speak from the bottom of my heart, without any deception." Ren Pingsheng replied.

"For the sake of your honesty, I will give you a chance."

Emperor Zhaowu picked up the imperial pen again, reviewed the memorial, and said casually: "Within fifteen days, if you can find out the mastermind behind the scenes, or recover more than half of the silver, which is 2.5 million taels, I will sell you a favor. If the people in Mu's house who are released cannot be found out or the money cannot be recovered, all the people in Mu's house will be executed."

Is half a month a bit tight?

Ren Pingsheng hesitated for a moment and bargained: "Your Majesty, can you please tolerate me for a while?"

Emperor Zhaowu said casually: "For the sake of Xia Miao's meritorious service, I will give you five more days."

Only five extra days?

Forget it, five days will be five days.

Ren Pingsheng sighed in his heart and saluted again: "Then I will take my leave first."

"Wait a minute."

Emperor Zhaowu stopped him: "This year, Xia Miao, you are the first. You should be appointed as a general and lead troops to fight in the southern border, but considering that you and Chang An have been married for a short time, I will give up... Tell me, what compensation do you want?"

Ah! Unexpectedly, there is an unexpected surprise.

Ren Pingsheng raised his eyebrows and said without hesitation: "I haven't seen His Highness Yunhe for many days. I miss him very much. I beg Your Majesty..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard the emperor coldly said: "Get out!"

Ren Pingsheng: "..."

Old man, you don't keep your promise.

He complained in his heart and turned to leave.

Emperor Zhaowu said again: "Wang Zheng, take him to get a magic weapon."

Wang Zheng saluted: "I obey your order."

After half an hour.

Ren Pingsheng walked out of the warehouse with a carefully selected Tiancan soft armor in his hand.

"Thank you, Eunuch Wang."

"You are too polite, my servant has to go back to report, so I'm sorry I can't see you off."

After a polite greeting.

Eunuch Wang turned and left.

Ren Pingsheng stood there alone, looking at the silkworm soft armor in his hand, feeling quite satisfied.

According to Wang Zheng.

The silkworm soft armor can block all attacks below the sixth rank.

It can block the sixth rank attack ten times.

It can block the fifth rank attack once.

It is a good defensive magic weapon.

"Father-in-law is generous this time."

Ren Pingsheng thought so, took off his outer robe, put on the silkworm soft armor, put on the outer robe again, and walked away.

After walking a few steps, he suddenly thought.

During the summer, the emperor asked him to go to the library to read "The Records of Emperor Taizu".

Some time ago, he was stopped outside the palace and had no chance to see it.

Why not take this opportunity to take a look?

As Ren Pingsheng thought so, a delicate figure suddenly appeared in front of him, standing in the cold wind, shivering.

"Let's do it next time. Otherwise, Mu Rou might have frozen to death when she comes back from the library."

Thinking of this, Ren Pingsheng stopped struggling and walked out of the palace.

Two sticks of incense later.

Ren Pingsheng walked out of the palace gate and looked up.

The little stubborn donkey was still standing there, wrapped in her outer robe. Her delicate body trembled slightly with the cold wind. Her delicate face was pale and looked unusually pale. A few strands of black hair at her temples blew to the side. The whole person looked strangely beautiful.

Using the words in female novels, it should be a broken beauty?

"Little stubborn donkey..."

Ren Pingsheng walked up and wanted to say hello, but he said what was in his heart inadvertently. After a second of silence, he pretended that nothing had happened, smiled gently, and said softly: "Miss Mu."

Little stubborn donkey... is he talking about me?

Mu Rou was slightly stunned, and it took her a while to react. Anger rose in her chest, and a faint blush appeared on her pale face. She turned away and pretended that she had heard nothing.

Ren Pingsheng walked to Mu Rou's side and asked with a smile: "Miss Mu, don't you want to know what I talked about with His Majesty?"

Did he go to the palace to meet the emperor for himself?

Hearing this, Mu Rou couldn't help but have this thought and wanted to ask.

But thinking of the little stubborn donkey just now, she pursed her lips and endured it.

"I have been busy for the Mu Mansion for so long, and Miss Mu's attitude is really chilling."

Ren Pingsheng stood beside Mu Rou, his tone was low, as if he was sad and lost.

Hearing this, Mu Rou's long eyelashes trembled slightly, hesitated for a moment, turned to look at Ren Pingsheng, and said softly: "Thank you, Prince."

After saying this, I found that Ren Pingsheng had been smiling from beginning to end, and there was no sign of loss.

"Miss Mu keeps saying thank you, Prince, over and over again. It's really boring. Think of something else next time." Ren Pingsheng teased with a smile.

Mu Rou bit her pink lips and turned away again, not wanting to pay attention to him.

Seeing this, Ren Pingsheng stopped teasing her and said seriously: "His Majesty has promised me that within 20 days, as long as I can find out the mastermind behind the embezzlement of silver, or recover 2.5 million taels of silver, he will pardon the people of the Mu Mansion."

Hearing this, Mu Rou's eyebrows showed joy, turned her head to look at Ren Pingsheng, and opened her pink lips slightly, wanting to say something.

Ren Pingsheng took the lead and waved his hand: "Thank you, Prince, there's no need to say it. I'm tired of hearing it."

Looking at the frivolous man in front of her, Mu Rou's heart surged with warmth, spreading all over her body, her eyelashes trembled, and her voice was soft: "Thank you, Mr. Ren."

Mr. Ren...

Don't say it, this is the first time Ren Pingsheng has heard this title in so many years, it's considered novel.

"It won't be too late to thank you when His Majesty truly pardons the people in the Mu Mansion."

Ren Pingsheng rarely became serious: "Time is pressing, so don't waste time here. Miss Mu, please come back to the mansion with me."

While speaking.

The horse had already walked briskly and came to him, rubbing his shoulder gently with its head, making a flattering nasal sound.

Mu Rou looked at the horse, and her face turned slightly red. She didn't know what she was thinking about. She didn't say a word, and her face turned away silently, neither looking at the horse nor at Ren Pingsheng.

Seeing this, Ren Pingsheng tacitly didn't say anything, stretched out his hand to hold her slender waist, and gently put her on the horse's back.

Then he climbed on the horse and said, "It's windy, Miss Mu can get closer."

After that, he gently pulled the reins and controlled the horse to go in the direction of Ren Mansion.

Behind.

Mu Rou tightly grasped the robe on her body and the corners of his waist with both hands, and moved closer unconsciously.

The man's breath hit her face, but she didn't feel disgusted, just a little uncomfortable.

time flies.

In the blink of an eye.

The horse stopped in front of Ren Mansion.

Ren Pingsheng turned over and dismounted, looked up and saw Mu Rou's face turned away, her soft body as stiff as a sculpture.

"The little stubborn donkey is making great progress and has learned how to get off the slope."

Ren Pingsheng chuckled, said nothing, put his arms around her soft waist, and hugged her down.

A warm touch came from my waist.

An unprecedented and indescribable feeling surged through Mu Rou's heart. Her body trembled slightly, and she gradually calmed down until her feet landed on the ground.

In front of the mansion.

Qiu'er, who had been looking forward to seeing this scene, opened her eyes wide, opened her mouth slightly, and had four words written all over her delicate face - unbelievable.

She saw something.

The lady and the prince rode on the same horse, and she was still wearing the clothes the prince was wearing when he left.

That's all. The prince put his arm around the young lady's waist and took her off the horse. The young lady didn't react at all.

According to her understanding of the young lady.

The above three points, in the past, it was impossible for the lady to achieve any of them.

Not to mention physical contact, even if there is a man of the same age standing within five steps of the lady, the lady will not be able to control herself and want to escape.

The young lady's dislike for men of her own age is by no means a pretense, but instinctive.

When exaggerated, the lady may even feel nauseous and retch.

therefore.

Seeing the young lady and the prince acting so intimately, she couldn't believe her eyes.

"How did the prince do it? What happened while they were away?"

The little maid had countless questions in her mind, but she suppressed them all.

Because she knows it very well.

It is a great thing for a young lady to have a man of her own age who is not disgusted by her side.

"Miss, you are finally back. During the time you were away, I was so worried about you..."

Qiu'er stepped forward, stretched out her hand to support Mu Rou, and sobbed.

Although Sister Qiu'er didn't want to accompany her to the palace, she knew in her heart that Sister Qiu'er was thinking about herself and didn't take it to heart. She said softly: "I'm fine. Sister Qiu'er doesn't have to worry."

aside.

Ren Pingsheng smiled and said: "With my son taking care of your young lady, everything will be fine."

Hearing this, Qiu'er took it seriously. She raised her eyes to look at Ren Pingsheng and expressed her sincere gratitude: "I would like to thank you, Your Majesty."

Ren Pingsheng waved his hand: "Help your young lady go back and rest."

"Um."

Qiu'er nodded solemnly, stretched out her hand to support Mu Rou, and walked into the mansion.

Just walked a few steps.

Mu Rou stopped, turned to look at Ren Pingsheng, with a hint of worry in her eyes, and spoke softly: "Mr. Ren, something about Mu Mansion..."

Ren Pingsheng knew what she wanted to say and waved his hand: "There are many strange things about the Mu Mansion case. Mr. Xiao from the Demon Suppression Department and I have already started investigating this matter. You don't have to worry. If no clues can be found, I will look for you. help."

Mu Rou lowered her eyes and said, "Young Master Ren is responsible for your troubles, but the matter of Mu Mansion has nothing to do with Young Master Ren after all..."

Why are you being pretentious again?

Ren Pingsheng sighed helplessly and said leisurely: "To be honest, you can't be of much help at all like this. Why don't you go back and recuperate, and help me translate the Heart Sutra of Yin and Yang, so that I can have motivation to investigate the case.

Don't worry, even if the mastermind behind the scenes can't be found within twenty days, it's still a matter of questioning after the fall. There is still time to mediate. If it doesn't work, just write to your master. It's useless for the emperor to tell anyone to come, but the Heavenly Master If he really comes to plead for mercy, he will definitely lose face. "

Hearing this, Mu Rou felt completely relieved, a smile appeared on her brows, and her tone was soft: "Thank you, Mr. Ren."

"The young lady actually called the Crown Prince Mr. Ren..."

On the side, Qiu'er's eyes were slightly bright, and she looked at her own lady, and then at Ren Pingsheng not far away, the smile on her lips could not be concealed.

After a few breaths.

The two walked back to the courtyard that Ren Pingsheng had prepared for them.

Ren Pingsheng watched them leave, stood there, thought about it, got on his horse, and went straight to the Demon Suppression Division.
