In the small courtyard of the banker, Mu Xin'er wanted to persuade his young lady to leave under the cover of night.

Otherwise, if they were caught by Weiyuan Marquis, they would all die without a burial place.

Lin Jiaoyue hesitated for a moment and asked Mu Wan'er: "Are you sure that no one in Yajuli knows your identity?"

Mu Wan'er nodded: "My lady, Xin'er has always been with you when visiting the Hou Mansion. This servant has never revealed her whereabouts in front of the people of the Hou Mansion."

Lin Jiaoyue thought about it, and it was indeed what Mu Wan'er said.

Besides, she originally ordered Mu Wan'er to come here on errands because she seldom appeared in front of others, and because she was someone she could trust.But it was also because of this that she recognized the wrong person.

Seeing that Lin Jiaoyue was silent, Mu Wan'er added: "These days, I have been serving you in the elegant residence. If they had any doubts, I would have been exposed long ago."

"I believe what you said." Lin Jiaoyue said.

Then, she waved her hand and told Mu Xin'er: "Go out and guard. If there is anything unusual, report it immediately."

When Mu Xin'er saw that her young lady had lost her temper, she responded and went out.

Seeing that there was no one else in the room, Lin Jiaoyue slowly walked up to Mu Wan'er and said softly: "You like my brother, don't you?"

Mu Wan'er's heart was shocked, and she raised her head in disbelief.

Lin Jiaoyue sneered and pulled off a piece of handkerchief from Mu Wan'er's waist. On the handkerchief, which was as white as snow, there was an uneven orchid hanging on it. If it was embroidered, it would be better to say it was cut from somewhere else. Falling on.

She looked at Mu Wan'er: "Brother, one of the uniforms was scratched by a branch. No more, no less, just one orchid missing."

Mu Wan'er's face turned pale, and she fell to the ground: "This slave will die!"

Lin Jiaoyue smiled and stretched out her hand to help her up: "It's just love between a man and a woman, so why should I die? Besides, you are the person next to me. If I mention it to my brother in the future, based on your beauty, I want to serve you It’s not like he can’t.”

"This servant is stupid, how can I serve the young master..." Mu Wan'er bit her lower lip gently, trembling slightly.

"If you don't give it a try, how will you know you're not worthy?" Lin Jiaoyue said seductively.

"But... this servant didn't even complete the errands ordered by the young lady." Mu Wan'er said hesitantly.

"It's just a mistake. Isn't there no chance to make amends?"

Mu Wan'er opened her eyes wide: "What do you mean, Miss?"

Lin Jiaoyue looked at the vast night outside through the worn window paper: "Xin'er is right, Yuzhou City is neither small nor big. Mu Rong only came here for a while! Wait for them Find this place, use that cheap maid as hostage to lure Xu Rongrong out, and then..." She made a gesture, "One hit will definitely hit!"

The color on Mu Wan'er's face faded instantly: "But... if this happens, this slave will definitely die."

"You made such a big mistake, do you think you can still survive?" Lin Jiaoyue sneered, "But death must be worth dying for. Once we are all caught by Mu Rong, let alone you and me, we can't save our lives. Even my brother cannot escape death."

"But if you die to protect our Lin family, after returning to the capital, I will ask my brother to accept your memorial tablet as my concubine! In this way, when he meets you a hundred years later, you will be his legitimate concubine."

Mu Wan'er was stunned in place.

She looked in disbelief at the young lady she had served since she was eight years old.

It's so strange now.

……

People at midnight were walking along the street.

The banging sound made the night seem even quieter.

In order not to wake Xu Rongrong, Mu Rong kept half-hugging her, and his face that was usually tough and cold was now as gentle as water.

Outside the door, two knocks sounded.

"Master Marquis, Vice General Ai has ordered his subordinates to come and report." The person who spoke was Mu Lu, "Miss Wen Yao has been found. Vice General Ai and his people are guarding there and do not dare to act rashly."

After hearing this, Mu Rong gently put Xu Rongrong down.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, the hem of his clothes was pulled again.

Mu Rong turned around helplessly. Although the eyes of the person on the couch were still a little confused, his voice was decisive: "Take me there."

He smiled bitterly and picked up Xu Rongrong.

"it is good."

The wide black cloak wrapped Xu Rongrong's petite body.

He carried her all the way to the door and got on his horse.

Mu Lu followed closely behind.

The night was thick, and there were several figures hiding in the darkness.

Mu Lu whistled, and the figures followed immediately.

The night wind was as sharp as a knife and extremely cold.

Xu Rongrong couldn't open her eyes.

Seeing this, Mu Rong whipped his horse with one hand and held her in his arms with the other.

Just as Xu Rongrong was about to struggle, Mu Rong said displeasedly: "If you move again, I will save people myself."

One word made Xu Rongrong calm down.

The girl in his arms stared at him angrily.

Mu Rong raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

Their figures whizzed past in the night, and they arrived outside the village in just one stick of incense.

In order not to alarm others, they dismounted outside the village.

Mu Lu stepped forward and whispered: "The third family after entering Zhuangzi."

Xu Rongrong asked: "How did you find out it was here?"

"The villagers are not rich and would not light up the lights in the middle of the night unless they have to. Among the several villages nearby, only that family has kept the lights on. When Deputy General Ai went to investigate, he heard a woman yelling and cursing. The capital accent." Mu Lu reported back.

"It should be here." Xu Rongrong nodded, her hands clasped together, indescribably nervous.

Mu Rong held her hand and ordered: "Go in!"

Mu Ai was lurking on the courtyard wall. He turned over and entered the courtyard and quietly opened the door latch.

Mu Rong led everyone into the small courtyard.

I don't know who kicked a pebble, but this slight movement alerted everyone in the room.

A woman's voice came from the woodshed: "I found him so quickly. It seems that the life in my hands is very valuable."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the woodshed opened.

Mu Wan'er, still dressed as a maid, held a dagger in her left hand, placed it on Wen Yao's neck, and walked out slowly.

There was no obstruction where she stood, and the moonlight shone right on her face.

"Who are you?" Mu Rong asked.

Mu Wan'er raised her chin: "He's a nobody, he just can't bear to see you powerful people doing evil things."

"I received the order from the Lord of Zhou County today, so my trip here is not in vain."

"You are not an unknown person. Your surname is Mu, and you are Mu Wan'er, the maid of the eldest lady of the Lin family!" Xu Rongrong called out her identity.

Mu Wan'er was shocked: "You...what are you doing?"

Xu Rongrong looked at her, and it was the look of the dagger in her left hand that reminded her of the other party's identity.

In her previous life, Lin Jiaoyue deceived her out of the city by falsely reporting that Mu Rong was injured. It was a woman holding a knife in her left hand who forced her out of the city and almost ruined her innocence.

Although she never saw the woman's face, she remembered that the gangsters called her Mu Wan'er!
