When she returned to the entrance of Zhengyang Palace, Xu Rongrong was still blushing and heartbeating, feeling very uncomfortable.

Fortunately, the wind in the corridor blew on her heart and made her feel a little comfortable.

Since it was almost midnight, everyone who had just left the banquet returned to the hall, except for the emperor and the empress who were still resting at the back.

At this time, Xu Rongrong... didn't really want to enter the palace.

Mu Rong did not urge her. He looked at the little girl's blushing cheeks and waited for the evening breeze to dissipate the heat from her.

The dead branches behind him rustled, and Mu Rong subconsciously took a step forward to block the wind for her to prevent the sudden night wind from hurting his little girl.

There are only two of them here.

"This is the palace... That woman came from Northern Xinjiang to accompany the princess. How could the prince be so bold?" Xu Rongrong rubbed her cheeks with her cold hands. She still found it incredible.

Although most of the scene under the rockery was blocked by Mu Rong and she didn't see much, the prince's absurd and bold remarks still exceeded Xu Rongrong's cognition...

This was really far from the prince she remembered!

At the Chinese Valentine's Day banquet in her previous life, she ran out of the Zhengyang Palace chasing Mu Rong and met the prince on the way.

Although she saw the surprise in the prince's eyes, he still followed the rules and did not make any uncomfortable moves in his words or actions.

Now less than half a year has passed, how could he have changed so much?

"Perhaps he feels that there are no opponents in the palace, so he no longer hides his true nature." Mu Rong curled his lips and smiled, Prince... This is really ridiculous compared to his previous life.

But that's fine, he won't feel too guilty if he takes action.

Mu Rong's words awakened Xu Rongrong in an instant.

Indeed, now that the second prince has declined, the third prince has his duty, the fourth prince...has not yet shown his prominence, and the other princes are still young.

For the prince, he was already confident about the throne.

This can be seen at tonight’s banquet.

She thought of the Chinese Valentine's Day banquet in her previous life. Because of the prince's look, the princess immediately made excuses to sacrifice her to the emperor.

While she was shocked, she was also resentful, hating the princess for pushing others into the abyss just because of a little suspicion.

But now that she saw the prince's actions, she realized that no matter how well the prince's absurdity was hidden, the princess was always aware of it. But she couldn't control the prince, so she could only attack the woman...

What a shameless couple!

Mu Rong lowered his head. He didn't know what the little girl in front of him thought of, which actually made him feel a little angry, but he subconsciously wanted to take action to distract her attention.

He straightened Xu Rongrong's hair that was messed up by the wind: "How are you now? If you feel better, let's go in."

Xu Rongrong was originally feeling a little angry, but when he said...

She glared at Mu Rong.

The blush in the corners of her eyes has not yet dissipated, and her eyes are inadvertently revealing a hint of charm.

But she didn't realize it. She turned around and came to the front of the palace. She took off her cloak and handed it to the maid attending outside the palace, and hurriedly entered the palace.

Mu Rong smiled and shook his head and followed closely.

But when passing the palace maid, she lowered her voice and said, "Let's find out Herme's identity."

"Yes." The palace maid also lowered her head, "Just after Master Cai and the county lord left, Concubine Shu also left the table."

"understood."

……

The Zhengyang Palace was filled with steam, and nobles from the clan were drinking wine among each other, and everyone's face was covered with a layer of drunkenness.

Only Mu Qianyin was dissatisfied: "I'm so annoyed. Today's family banquet actually requires me to take care of you. I'm not allowed to drink! You're not even allowed to touch the fruit wine! Sister Rong, you judge, how can this husband do this?"

Xu Rongrong smiled and said, "That's because His Highness loves Sister Chongmu. Drinking alcohol is harmful to your health after all."

"Bah! Then he used to make me drink every day. Wasn't it just that I drank too much a few days ago and kicked him? He actually holds a grudge to this day." Mu Qianyin raised her eyebrows, "Sister Rong, go to my place to do it." , let’s drive him away together.”

Since the second prince was not here, the third prince was seated next to the prince. Xu Rongrong was disgusted with the prince and was not willing to get close to him.

But Mu Qianyin's charming and innocent look showed that she would not give up even if she disagreed.

When Xu Rongrong was helpless, Mu Rong stood up and said, "It's almost midnight. I'll go over and toast to the elders. The third imperial concubine will sit here with me to accompany Sister Rong."

Hearing this, Mu Qianyin was filled with doubts: "Aren't you the most annoying person in the past? Even the clan elders rarely see you taking the initiative. Why have you changed your temper today?"

But after she finished speaking, she smiled again, "But this is good, it just makes room for Sister Rong and me."

Xu Rongrong raised her head and glanced at Mu Rong, and met his smiling eyes, which were as deep as wells, which made her heart tremble.

Was he doing this to prevent Mu Qianyin from dragging him to the prince's seat?

"Brother Rong has gone far, what are you looking at? If you are so reluctant, then I call him back?" Mu Qianyin interrupted Xu Rongrong's thoughts with a smile.

Only then did Xu Rongrong realize that her eyes had been following him.

She quickly regained her composure: "How could I..."

Mu Qianyin smiled and said: "You are all from here, and you want to hide it from me? This time I heard that you were always with him when you were in Jiangnan. Now I see that you treat him differently. Is it because we have been together for so long that we are Are you moved by Brother Rong's sincerity?"

Xu Rongrong blushed: "Sister Mu, please don't make fun of me. The Marquis went to Jiangnan on errands, and I also have other things to do. It's not what you think... It's just that my marriage to him was granted by His Majesty. You can’t be like a stranger after all.”

"Don't try to use His Majesty to prevaricate me. Can I still see it?" Mu Qianyin tapped Xu Rongrong's head with her fingertips.

"When you were in the hunting palace, you both had been granted a marriage by His Majesty, but you still didn't lie to him? Even though you broke into the emperor's tent to administer medicine for him, but... I can see that the relationship between you and him at that time There is no love between men and women.”

"But now, when you look at him, there is tenderness in your eyes and face. If you say that you have no intention of him or that it is hindered by His Majesty's marriage, then I won't believe it."

Xu Rongrong was a little overwhelmed by what she said, and she didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Mu Qianyin solemnly held her hand: "Mu Rong has been cold-tempered since he was a child and has not been close to anyone, but there is nothing we can do about it. His parents passed away early, and there is no caring person to take care of him. Uncle How much is friendship worth? It’s not that I look down upon him, the people of the Mu family treat him mostly because of his title... If we talk about sincere people, I can only count them on one hand."

"He has been in the army since he was a child. After the death of the old Marquis, he also supported the identity of Weiyuan Marquis alone. I originally thought that he was a cold-blooded person who only had a fiery and public personality. Only women can influence you, but I didn’t expect that he would love you so much with your gentle personality.”

Xu Rongrong's hand was hot when held by Mu Qianyin. She looked into the other person's eyes, full of sincerity and prudence.

Mu Qianyin was not wrong. In his previous life, Mu Rong could do what he did for Lin Jiaoyue. Isn't it because of Lin Jiaoyue's frankness, openness, brightness and blazingness that he always displayed to people's eyes?

But...why has he changed his temper again in this life?

But before she could think deeply, she heard Mu Qianyin say sincerely: "He personally asked for your marriage. He promised you the position of his wife in front of everyone. It shows that he is really happy with you." . If you... are also willing, then as a member of the Mu family, I ask you to treat him sincerely."

"He has been through so much suffering and needs someone who is sincere."

Xu Rongrong looked at Mu Qianyin blankly, and then nodded lightly.

Everything that happened here was seen by Mu Rong, who was standing in the distance.

He really had no intention of getting close to these clan members, and he found this excuse to toast just to prevent her from being taken to the prince's table by Mu Qianyin.

Now seeing her blushing and talking solemnly to Mu Qianyin, he suddenly felt a trace of regret in his heart:

He seemed... to have gone a little too far.
