The other adults also looked at Xue Wenyu, wanting to see how he would solve the problem today.

They didn't want to butt in and give advice, and they couldn't afford to offend either the Mu family or the Xue family.

Xue Wenyu had actually expected this result a long time ago. The only thing he didn't expect was that this girl would actually tell the truth and place the bet on him.

After all, the Mu family is her family.

Originally, he didn't expect to get an explanation today, so he wasn't disappointed.

Because he already knew the truth of the matter beforehand.

Before the wedding, he returned to the mansion, briefly explained why he had lost contact with him some time ago, and then went to the palace. When he came back, it was midnight, and his father and uncles were still awake waiting for him.

So, he told them that the pastoral family would send a fake bride today. He also explained what might happen, how to deal with it, and what he planned to do.

Therefore, no matter after the veil was lifted in the bridal chamber today, or when the Mu family came to explain the whole situation, neither my father nor several other elders in the mansion showed up.

Xue Wenyu pretended to be embarrassed and thought about it. He looked at the pitiful Mu Yingbao, and then at his brother-in-law who was obviously feeling guilty but still kept a stern face.

The atmosphere in the room seemed to freeze in an instant.

"Forget it. It's a blessing in disguise that I've survived this disaster and come back alive. I don't intend to pursue the answer to this matter. Master Mu, please go back." Xue Wenyu spoke.

The biggest change is that Mu Yongjie is no longer called "brother-in-law", but "Mr. Mu". This means that his marriage with the Mu family is invalid.

Huh? Mu Yongjie was nervous for a long time. He didn't expect this result. It was too smooth, so smooth that it felt unreal.

"Then, what about this slave girl?" He was afraid that Xue Wenyu would change his mind, so he asked quickly.

"Her? This prince hasn't figured out how to deal with her yet. Since she has been brought into my house, you don't need to worry about how to deal with her, Master Mu. One more thing, from now on she is my person, Master Mu, please be careful with your words in the future. This prince doesn't want to hear the name of a lowly maid. Lin Chuan, show her out." After Xue Wenyu finished speaking, his voice suddenly became higher.

Lin Chuan immediately stepped forward, walked to Mu Yongjie, and made a gesture of invitation.

Although the tone and attitude of the prince were very bad, it was a good ending after all, so Mu Yongjie bowed to the adults and said goodbye. Before leaving, he deliberately turned back to look at the person on the couch, leaving behind a cold smile.

After going out, Mu Yongjie's steps became much more relaxed.

It seems that Master Xue still knows how to deal with the current situation. As for that slave girl, the master is not going to let her go. This is her fate, and she can't blame others.

"My dear uncles and aunts, the steward has come here several times. It should be my father waiting for you to have a drink." Xue Wenyu stood up and said respectfully to the others in the hall.

"My dear nephew, she is just a little girl. Just give her a slight punishment." When the adults were about to leave, General Shang turned around to look at the person on the couch and advised Xue Wenyu kindly.

For some reason, he suddenly felt that this girl had a similar personality to him, and he began to feel pity for her.

"Well, I'll remember what Uncle Shang said. I'm sorry for not entertaining you well today. I'll make it up to you another day when I have the chance." Xue Wenyu's attitude towards this great general who defends the country is one of sincere respect.

Watching the prince send people out the door, Mu Yingbao on the couch began to have the feeling she had before Mu Yongjie left.

Is this the end of the matter? It's unlikely. It can't be that good, right?

I looked at the prince foolishly as he came back, trying to guess what he meant from his face.

"Young Master, how was my performance just now? Did I stand on the right side?" Seeing that he was just looking at her without saying anything, Mu Yingbao forced a smile and asked.

Xue Wenyu folded his arms, leaned against the coffee table, looked at the grinning man on the couch, and nodded slightly; "Well, very good, I am very satisfied with your previous performance."

"That's because of your infinite charm, Prince. As soon as I saw you, I felt that you are a person who can distinguish right from wrong and will not be deceived by some shady and cunning people. Prince, then, can I leave now?" Mu Yingbao asked cautiously and tentatively, extending two fingers downwards and moving them back and forth alternately.

Xue Wenyu looked at her finger movements and realized that the meaning of her two fingers was the same as what she said. He thought it was quite vivid and interesting, so he nodded.

"Really? Prince, you are so kind. You are such a good person, God will bless you, and in the future, you will marry a beautiful wife and have some golden and jade children. Prince, no matter big or small things, public or private affairs, everything will go smoothly in the future, and the emperor will appoint you as a first-rank official." Mu Yingbao flattered him hard and only said nice things.

Xue Wenyu was speechless after listening to this. She was really good at flattery and fawning!

"Then, can you ask someone to help me move my things down?" Mu Yingbao wanted to get downstairs, but suddenly realized that he was not wearing shoes.

"What are you moving?" Xue Wenyu asked in confusion when he saw her sitting back on the couch. It shouldn't be the word "move" to ask someone to help get the shoes, right?

"My Lord, why are you pretending to be confused and teasing me? Of course you are moving the dowry I brought with me. Now that everything has been made clear, I will not stay here to be an eyesore. Otherwise, when you see me, you will think of that family and feel uncomfortable.

I will leave with my dowry and rent a house outside." Mu Yingbao is not stupid. She knows that the other party will not let her go so easily, so she pretends to be confused and tries with a playful smile.

"Dowry?" Xue Wenyu asked as he walked to the couch and leaned down, only two fists' distance from her face.

Mu Yingbao was a little nervous and dodged backwards, wondering why he was using this trick again? His eyes are pretty, could he be nearsighted?

“Although you are not the real Mu Jinyi, you were carried into the mansion by my people in a sedan chair, and you also bowed to heaven and earth with me. I sent the Mu family away, but you don’t want to think about how to repay me, but just want to leave?

Who do you think I am? What kind of place is this Marquis's Mansion? Can you come and go as you please? " Xue Wenyu's smile gradually turned cold, and he asked fiercely.

Damn it, judging from his expression, is he going to vent all his frustration on me? Mu Yingbao wanted to cry, God knows how much she regretted agreeing to marry for someone else!

"My name is not on the marriage certificate. Even though we got married in the hall, it doesn't count, right? Besides, there was no bridal chamber." Mu Yingbao thought of a key issue and came up with another reason why the wedding didn't count.

"You don't have to worry about this. I have already corrected it. If you can read, you can read it carefully." As he spoke, I couldn't see clearly where he took out a red folded document and unfolded it to show her.

Of course Mu Yingbao knew the name. Her name, 'Mu Yingbao', was clearly written on the bride's seat.

How could that be? How did he know about it in advance?

"Have you been prepared for this? Did you know about it in advance? What are you doing? You carried me in even though you knew I was a fake? What if Mu Jinyi came into the mansion today?" Mu Yingbao asked in disbelief.

"That won't be possible. Even if she changes her mind and marries me, I will change you back." Xue Wenyu saw that her eyes kept looking at the marriage certificate, and guessed that she wanted to snatch it and destroy it, so he immediately closed the marriage certificate and stuffed it into his sleeve.

"Sir, don't joke around, it's not funny at all. We don't even know each other, why do you have to want me?" Mu Yingbao felt that his mind was starting to get a little confused...
