Mu Rong drove away with Xu Rongrong and Luo Shu, leaving a piece of chicken feathers to Mu Ai and the people of Weiyuan Hou Mansion.

The latter glared fiercely at Wu Ping, who was rolling on the ground, and sneered: "You're a guy like you, you're worthy of trying to take advantage of Miss Xu!"

The carriage rushed all the way and safely delivered Xu Rongrong to the door of Xu Mansion.

Mu Rong opened the car door, and Xu Rongrong was already holding a dagger in a defensive posture, with veins popping out on the back of his hand.

The blood on the dagger had dried and solidified, exuding a fishy smell.

Mu Rong handed over his hand: "Give it to me."

Xu Rongrong did not move.

Mu Rong said warmly: "Rong Rong, give me the knife."

Luo Shu on the side endured the pain in his back and gently opened Xu Rongrong's fingers: "Miss, we are home."

The dagger fell with a clang.

Mu Rong ducked into the car, hugged Xu Rongheng in his arms, immediately jumped out of the carriage, and ran towards the Wutong Courtyard where she lived.

……

"Bring your lady a basin of hot water!" Mu Rongchong said this to Wen Yao who came forward to greet him, and then carried Xu Rongrong into the house.

Returning to the familiar room, Xu Rongrong's tense mood relaxed.

It was the first time in her two lives that she experienced this life-and-death battle.

In her previous life, she was shot through the chest by an arrow from Chu He. There was no fight or struggle. She died simply and didn't think much about it.

But just now, she held a dagger and stabbed someone else's body with her own hands, watching the blood spurt out, and the smell was disgusting.

At this moment, her hands were still stained with the man's blood, which was scarlet and a little disgusting.

Mu Rong put her on the couch and covered her eyes with his hands: "Don't look, it's okay."

Xu Rongrong raised her hand and pushed him away: "Why, Lord Marquis thinks I am a dodder flower that cannot see the wind and waves?"

Seeing that her expression was as usual, Mu Rong felt relieved and said with a smile: "How dare you? Even if I want to underestimate you, I don't dare to underestimate the medicinal powder in your sachet."

A trace of blush appeared on Xu Rongrong's cheeks.

Mu Rong wanted to tease her again, but he was afraid that going too far would be too much, so he said: "In the army, I am used to seeing the way the sergeants behave after killing someone for the first time. I am afraid that you will be stunned by this."

Xu Rongrong raised his head: "He's not dead."

Mu Rong bent down and said, "Well, Miss Xu is very measured in her attacks! If you don't feel relieved, how about I send you back and stab him a few more times? I guarantee it will hurt him to the point of bone marrow and he will not die."

Xu Rongrong: "..."

The hot water was quickly brought in, and Xu Rongrong slowly dipped his hands into the water. The blood stains quickly melted away, slowly turning the water in the basin red.

After changing the basin three times in a row, Xu Rongrong washed her hands. She picked up the handkerchief, wiped it dry and handed it to Wen Yao: "Burn it."

After the smell of blood disappeared from her body, she looked at Mu Rong: "Master Hou...why are you there?"

"It's not because of Miss Xu's bravery last night that the first wave of people who returned to Beijing from Shaohua'an made Wu Ping's ugly behavior known to everyone. I thought that your hand was indispensable for this matter, but Wu Ping is used to being a bastard, so I'm afraid it won't happen I will let you go easily, so I led people to rush over."

Xu Rongrong was a bit speechless. If he hadn't arrived in time today, he and Wu Ping would have fought to the death.

He... I saved his life in his previous life, so in this life, let him consider it as repaying his life.

She lowered her body and said, "In this case, I will thank you, Mr. Marquis."

Mu Rong frowned slightly as he looked at her distant and polite look.

I didn't say these words to her just to make her appreciate her.

After she stood up, he put on a smiling face and said, "Miss Xu, there is no need to thank you. If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, how could you believe that Miss Xu has such a heroic side."

He paused for a moment, "Your ability to cut off one's descendants is really majestic."

Xu Rongrong blushed at his annoyance and glared at him fiercely.

But in Mu Rong's eyes, this angry look was better than her alienation just now.

So, he added fire to the fire, came over and said, "But in the future, please don't do it to your husband."

"You..." Xu Rongrong pushed him away with one hand. This man is still so hateful!

When Mu Rong saw that she was no longer as nervous as when she came, he stopped teasing her and left with a smile.

When they arrived in front of the Xu Mansion, Mu Ai also arrived with people.

Mother and daughter Xu Liu and Xu Yaoyao were already tied to the carriage and were in a miserable state.

Mu Rong glanced at the two of them coldly: "Tie them up and watch them carefully when Mr. Xu comes back."

"No!" Mrs. Xu Liu roared. This was in front of the Xu Mansion, where people were coming and going. "Please give me some face, Lord Marquis."

Mu Rong heard this: "You want to save face, what do you have to do with me?"

After saying that, he got on his horse and left with everyone in Weiyuan Hou Mansion.

This gave Xu Liu and his daughter more room for guidance.
