The reborn sweet girl always wants to escape, but the abstinent prince hugs her and coaxes her!

Xu Rongrong and Mu Rong visited Prince Ning's Mansion late at night because they needed to avoid being seen.

Therefore, even after leaving the front hall, Mu Qianyin did not take Xu Rongrong far away.

Instead, he found a quiet room alone in the front yard.

The room is not big, but it is full of decorations. There is a whole wall of bookshelves filled with classics and history collections, as well as military books and tactics.

Under the small window directly opposite the bookshelf, there is a couch, and beside the couch are some casual books.

Mu Qianyin's ears turned slightly red when she saw Xu Rongrong coming over: "These words are what I use to kill time."

Xu Rongrong smiled and nodded: "I also like to read idle books. Sister Mu has some good ones here. Lend me some books later."

Naturally, she was happy to meet a friend. Mu Qianyin hurriedly responded: "No problem, I still have a box in my room..."

After saying that, I felt funny too.

The princes and concubines all came from scholarly families, and none of them were good at playing chess, calligraphy, and painting. How could there be one who loved reading books as much as she did, and even hid a whole box...

However, Xu Rongrong didn't care. After all, she was willing to get along with Mu Qianyin because she was attracted by the free and easy nature of the other person.

The wing room on one side of the room is equipped with a tea room, which is fully equipped with all necessary items.

"Let's sit under the window." Mu Qianyin suggested.

Xu Rongrong naturally responded. She helped Mu Qianyin take out the tea tray and tea stove from the ear room, and placed them in front of the couch under the window. The heat instantly dispelled the night chill.

Since there were no servants to serve him, Mu Qianyin made the tea himself.

Looking at her familiar look and the location of the tea room, Xu Rongrong couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth: Thinking about it, this room should be the place where Prince Ning and Sister Mu are always around.

Quiet yet warm.

"Come, try this white moonlight, it's a tribute for the new year." Mu Qianyin poured a glass for Xu Rongrong.

Xu Rongrong took a sip and had a fresh and mellow aftertaste.

"Why did Sister Mu start to like white tea? I remember I saw you drinking mostly green tea in the mansion earlier." Xu Rongrong asked with a smile.

She remembered that the place where this moonlight white tea was produced was near Fuhai, but that place had just been given to Prince Ning by His Majesty. How come this tea was delivered so quickly?

Mu Qianyin poured another cup for her: "I am pregnant now and cannot drink green tea. However, there are always some guests in the mansion who are arriving and leaving, and they always have to sit with them. This is what the chief minister of the mansion received from the palace a few days ago. I came here and said that drinking a little while pregnant is not a big deal."

Although the prince opened an office and built a palace after he came of age, he still had to receive all the offerings from the palace because he had no serious work and little income.

Xu Rongrong nodded when he heard this: "The affairs in the mansion are complicated. I didn't expect Lord Chang Shi to be able to observe things in such detail. I wonder where he is from? I will ask a suitable person to help me deal with it later."

"His name is Wei Shi, and he is from the Wei clan of his mother-in-law."

"Is there anyone in the Wei family...?" Xu Rongrong vaguely remembered that Prince Ning Wu Tianxiao's mother clan had no one, so even though he was the most talented among the princes, he had never been taken seriously by the emperor and ministers.

Mu Qianyin smiled and said: "Although the Wei family is in decline, it was once a famous family a hundred years ago, so it has accumulated some accumulation. This Wei Changshi during the Wei Dynasty was a son of the Wei family, and his mother-in-law was selected into the palace at that time. , the clan only sent one clan brother to take Wei Shi to escort the mother and concubine to the capital. In these years, the Wei clan has made little progress, and they all rely on the rewards of the mother and concubine in the palace..."

"But with the Queen here, except for Concubine Shu, which of the other concubines has not lived a miserable life? The concubine just received some extra rewards in the years after giving birth to Tianxiao... However, the concubine is prepared for a rainy day. Temperament, knowing that the family is unreliable, and also afraid that Tianxiao will have nothing to rely on in the future, so after receiving a generous reward from His Majesty, he used the rewards to build two villages outside the city and asked Wei Shi to guard them..."

"Later, the mother-in-law died of illness. I don't know how many people in the Wei clan tried to pursue those two villages, but Wei Shi alone blocked them all. Therefore, when Tianxiao left the palace to build his mansion, the first thing he did was I transferred Wei Shi from Zhuangzi and became the chief historian of the mansion. As you know, I have always been ambitious and not good at taking care of the back house. All the affairs of the mansion are thanks to the chief minister of Wei."

Mu Qianyin told in detail the origin of Wei Changshi and his relationship with the Wei family, and his respect for Wei Changshi could not be concealed in his words.

It can be seen that she is extremely convinced of Wei Shi in her heart.

Xu Rongrong had only met Wei Shi once and didn't know him well, so he didn't know whether it was acceptable or not.

When Mu Qianyin talked about Concubine Wei's past, she felt quite emotional: "Concubine Wei has a keen eye for understanding people and is capable of foresight. She is truly a rare woman."

"Who says it wasn't?" Mu Qianyin sighed softly, "It's a pity that he died of illness early."

There was another sentence that Mu Qianyin didn't say out loud, but she felt even more regretful in her heart, that was...

The talented and resourceful Concubine Wei married into an imperial family.

The emperor favored the queen alone, which was a blessing for the queen, and the friendship between the emperor and the queen was regarded as a model for the world, but for the other concubines in the harem, it was more like...a disaster.

Concubine Wei was just a concubine until her death... The posthumous concubine title was granted as a rule after Wu Tianxiao came of age.

Seeing the loneliness in Mu Qianyin's eyes, Xu Rongrong smiled and changed the subject: "Since we are Concubine Wei's family, I'm afraid I won't be so lucky to invite her."

"Why are you so anxious?" Mu Qianyin squinted at Xu Rongrong, "Yi Changshi in Brother Rong's house is also pretty good. He grew up with Brother Rong since childhood. Although he is young, he is one of the younger generation in Beijing. The Chang Shi Butler, when it comes to Mu Yi, who wouldn’t praise him for his general knowledge and propriety, and he is very reliable?! The population of the Hou Mansion is simple, and he will definitely be able to take care of you in the future."

"???" Xu Rongrong was slightly startled and blushed a little when she understood.

Mu Qianyin looked at her face, only ashamed but not angry, so she smiled and teased her: "I see that your treatment of Brother Rong is very different from the past few days. Do you want to marry him now? "

"Huh?" Xu Rongrong was a little stunned. Was her past thoughts so obvious?

"When you were just given the marriage last year, although you didn't say anything, I could tell that you didn't want to marry him in your heart. It was just because of the emperor's order that it was difficult. I know that Brother Rong has a cold temper and is not good at it. When it came to pleasing girls, he was focused on you, and I was really afraid that his inappropriate methods would push you further and further away."

"During the time in the hunting palace, I saw that he was very cautious with you. He didn't know whether to be closer or farther away all day long. Let alone others, even I had never seen him be so timid. He looked like he didn't know anything, and thought he owed you something in his previous life."

Mu Qianyin's unintentional joke made Xu Rongrong stunned for a moment.

In the previous life...we owed her?
