The reborn sweet girl always wants to escape, but the abstinent prince hugs her and coaxes her!
Chapter 151 The chilling Xu Chaoqian
When Xu Rongrong returned to Xu Mansion, Mu Rong also returned to Weiyuan Hou Mansion.
Although he often lived in Mu's house before leaving Beijing, Chunwang is now a key figure in the Huangzhuang case and cannot afford to lose anything.
He had to handle it himself to feel at ease.
These days Chunwang has been guarded by Mu Lu, but Mu Rong didn't bother much. We only saw him again today.
In less than ten days, Chunwang changed from the smooth-talking manager of the Imperial Mansion who talked about people and ghosts to a quail. When he saw Mu Rong, he "woo woo woo" and worked hard. He wanted to say something, but in the end, Mu Rong only left his back.
Mu Lu kicked him into the dungeon, making him tremble in pain.
There are eight guards inside and outside the dungeon of Weiyuan Hou Mansion, so naturally they are not afraid of Chunwang escaping.
"Master, why didn't you listen to what Chunwang said just now?" Mu Ai walked out of the dungeon with his Lord Marquis.
"Ignore him, let him keep his words and go to Dali Temple." Only the more you ignore him, the more frightened he will be. When this fear accumulates to a certain level, when he encounters a place where he can speak, he will naturally Pour the beans into the bamboo tube and recruit them all.
Mu Ai responded: "Yes, my subordinates will stay here to guard him during this half month."
Mu Rong glanced at him: "Just leave this to Mu Lu. You go and let the military doctor treat the injury first."
"Yes."
After dealing with the matters in the dungeon, Mu Rong went to the study.
Mu Yi has been waiting here. During the time when the Marquis was away from the capital, he handled all matters, and now he needs to report them one by one.
After hearing this, Mu Rong nodded, and finally said: "You handled the Xu Liu family's matter well."
Mu Yi said hurriedly: "This is a matter within my subordinates! I have just sent people to investigate. The carriage carrying Xu Liu's body entered the backyard of Xu Mansion. I think Xu Chaoqian has seen it at this moment."
"Yeah." Mu Rong nodded.
Mu Yi still had some doubts in his heart: "Why did you send Mrs. Xu Liu's body now? If the Xu family is in mourning, won't the eldest lady have to wait another three years to marry you?"
Although Mrs. Xu Liu was not the biological mother of Miss Xu Da, and she had always treated her harshly, she still had the status of Xu Chaoqianxian and the mistress of the Xu family, and Xu Rongrong had to observe filial piety for her for three years.
If this happens, wouldn't the Marquis go crazy with anxiety?
Mu Rong smiled and said: "The purpose of sending the body back is to let Rong Rong have an explanation to the Xu family. She has been away from the capital for so long. If she goes back empty-handed, won't Xu Chaoqian be suspicious?"
After speaking, Mu Rong paused for a moment, "As for the matter of keeping filial piety, just watch it, Xu Chaoqian will definitely not let it happen."
Thinking of the ruthless Xu Chaoqian, Mu Rong felt shameless.
……
The lover Bo who was being discussed by the master and servant was currently in the back room of his house, frowning: "While no one knows about it now, you can order someone to find her in a secret place and bury her."
Even though Xu Rongrong knew that this man was ruthless, he still couldn't believe it: "What does father mean... to hide the fact that my wife is dead?"
"Exactly!"
"Why is this?"
"As a father, I also think about Sister Rong." Xu Chaoqian put on a loving father's face, "Think about it, if you announce that she is dead at this time, don't you have to keep filial piety for three years? What if Wei Yuan is far away? What should you do if the Hou Mansion changes its mind? Don’t you know that Weiyuan Hou Murong is the dream girl of all the girls in the capital? Can he stay with you for three years? "
If the engagement could be terminated right now, wouldn't it be just what he wanted?Xu Rongrong did not hesitate: "If the Hou Mansion changes its mind, then the daughter will not marry."
"How can that work!" Xu Chaoqian was shocked. Who in the entire capital didn't know that his sixth-grade Chaoyi Lang was about to become the father-in-law of Weiyuan Marquis?In the past, those high-ranking officials who did not take him seriously at all now spoke politely to him. How could he allow the Hou Mansion to change his mind and his daughter not to marry?
But looking at the eldest daughter's determined look, he changed his mind, "Even if I don't care, where are your second and third sisters? After three years of mourning, they have all grown up. Among the noble ladies in the capital today, which one is there? You haven’t decided to get married yet?"
"Isn't that my daughter?" Xu Rongrong raised her eyebrows.
Xu Chaoqian: "..."
There was a hint of embarrassment on his face: "But Sister Rong, you are lucky, it is Mrs. Hou's destiny! But they can't. After three years, what good family can they choose?"
"What's more, the second sister is currently in a close relationship with the granddaughter of Cheng Shangshu of the Ministry of Revenue. The Cheng family is in charge of Dazhou's money bag. Such a relationship can only be achieved by making friends. Once the second sister observes filial piety, she will not be able to go out for three years. I'm afraid that the eldest lady of the Cheng family will have forgotten her by then!"
"My father doesn't want to do this, but for your sisters, I have to do this." Xu Chao said forward, covering his chest, looking heartbroken.
"After the three of you sisters get married, my father will find an excuse to say that she died in the old house. Then he will move her tomb back to the Xu family's ancestral grave to complete the relationship between husband and wife."
Seeing him acting so coquettishly, Xu Rongrong almost vomited.
He didn't do it for them, he just wanted to get involved with the Minister of the Ministry of Finance.
He has not made any achievements in the Ministry of Industry for many years, but now he wants to take advantage of the relationship between Marquis Weiyuan and the Ministry of Household Affairs to reach a higher level.
"Isn't father afraid that the Liu family will be suspicious?" Xu Liu's natal family may not be so easy to fool.
"Sister Rong, don't worry, my father has already inquired about it. The old Mrs. Liu passed away a few years ago, and now Xu Liu's brother is in charge. He has gone to Lingnan. I don't know when he can return to Jiangnan. Right The capital is even more beyond our reach. As long as we don’t leak the news, they won’t know about it. Just don’t show off during the New Year’s gifts.”
When speaking, Xu Chaoqian put on a smug expression: "So for now, we just need to quietly dispose of this body."
He looked at Xu Rongrong. Now that she was the head of Xu Mansion, he naturally wanted to leave this job to her.
Xu Rongrong knew what he was planning in his heart, and looking at his face at this moment, she felt sick even if she stayed for a moment longer.
She said coldly: "My daughter went to the south to find the whereabouts of my wife. Now that she has been brought back, my father can do whatever he wants, but if he wants to use his daughter's hands to handle this matter, I will not accept my order!"
After saying that, she left the back room with a livid face without waiting for Xu Chaoqian to speak.
Xu Chaoqian was stunned for a moment. This was the first time he saw his eldest daughter angry.
There was no rolling around, no crying, and a calmness that made his whole body shiver.
……
Wen Yao and Luo Shu have been following Xu Rongrong, and they also have angry faces.
They didn't expect that their master would be so cold-blooded in his work. Xu Liu gave birth to two daughters and a son for him, and all they got in exchange was a roll of straw mat and burial in an unknown place.
Moreover, I have to let my own lady handle it!
If word spreads in the future, even if the lady is the head of the county, she will be reviled by thousands of people.
Having such a father is a nightmare!
When the three of them returned to Wutong Courtyard, they saw a half-grown man standing at the door.
"Chu Yun?" Luo Shu asked strangely, "Why are you back again?"
Chu Yun quickly stepped forward and saluted: "I met the eldest lady. I left something behind and wanted to come back to get it."
Xu Rongrong nodded and asked him to get up.
After not seeing each other for a few months, Chu Yun had actually grown a lot taller and fatter than before. His face also resembled that of his elder brother. It was less cold and more delicate than Chu He's, but he still had a childlike look on his face.
Before Xu Rongrong left the house, in order to protect him and allow him to better recover from his illness, he asked Luo Shu to take him to live in Wutong Courtyard.
Now that Xu Rongrong is back, he will naturally move back to the previous handyman room.
"It seems that Luo Shu has taken good care of you during this period." Xu Rongrong said with a smile. Looking at the sunny boy, the haze that had just been contracted in the back room was instantly dispelled.
Chu Yun's eyes were bright, and his eyebrows were crooked when he smiled: "It's Sister Luo Shu who loves me. She sticks to me first for all the delicious food. If I don't get fatter, wouldn't I be living up to Sister Luo Shu's kindness?"
"That's because you are sensible." Xu Rongrong smiled, "I heard from Luo Shu that you have helped her run a lot of errands these days."
"Sister Luo Shu is a woman, so she shouldn't work too hard. I'm a man, so I should naturally take care of her more!"
The young man imitated the adult's accent, and the three masters and servants couldn't help but laugh.
Xu Rong smiled tolerantly and said: "Your brother stayed in Jiangnan to run errands for me. He couldn't come back together before the year. You are now living alone in the service room. If you need anything, feel free to come and see your sister Luo Shu."
After receiving Xu Rongrong's instructions, Chu Yun ran to Luoshu with a smile: "Since the eldest lady has said so, sister Luoshu, please don't bother me when the time comes."
"Get out of here, get out of here! Get the things and get out of here." Luo Shu pushed Chu Yun away angrily and muttered, "This kid is not as steady as Guard Chu at all, and he doesn't know who his temper will follow."
Wen Yao came over and joked: "Why don't Sister Luo Shu hurry up and discipline her?"
"You're such a good guy, you can tease me as soon as you get back, so you can see how good I am!"
"Sister Luo Shu, I don't dare..."
Two girls were chasing each other with smiles in the yard. Xu Rongrong leaned on the eaves of the corridor and watched, with warmth in the corners of her eyes and brows.
Although he often lived in Mu's house before leaving Beijing, Chunwang is now a key figure in the Huangzhuang case and cannot afford to lose anything.
He had to handle it himself to feel at ease.
These days Chunwang has been guarded by Mu Lu, but Mu Rong didn't bother much. We only saw him again today.
