Xiao Xuetang felt like she seemed to have forgotten something, but for some reason, when she was about to think about it, she got a headache.

Mu Han hesitated for a while, but still poured a cup of tea and handed it to Xiao Xuetang, and asked worriedly, "Are you okay?"

Xiao Xuetang rubbed his head and said, "Nothing, maybe I haven't slept well recently."

Mu Han had also heard about the affairs of the Marquis' Mansion. Marquis Yong'an Xiao Yi used to portray himself as a gentleman, but unexpectedly he was a complete hypocrite.

He deceived his wife into raising his illegitimate daughter as his adopted daughter, and even protected her after the illegitimate daughter snatched the marriage away from his own daughter.

Mu Han sneered and said, "Compared to the King of Runan, this Xiao Yi is even less of a person!"

Xiao Xuetang said calmly: "When the Marquis' Mansion holds the family recognition banquet, Ye Jin will be the legitimate second lady of the Marquis' Mansion. She will be the second lady of the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion, and she will have the entire Ye's Company as her dowry. So, Lin Shaoshu will make a profit."

Mu Han looked at Xiao Xuetang with a look that said "are you crazy?" and said, "Did you two really watch Xiao Yi recognize Ye Jin? Although I didn't have much experience with her, have you forgotten what happened at the Huguo Temple?"

When mentioning this matter, a trace of guilt flashed across Mu Han's face.

At that time, because of the plague disaster, the whole village was at its wit's end, and he was bribed by Ye Jin's men to intercept Xiao Xuetang.

Even though they had no real intention of hurting Xiao Xuetang, after returning to Kyoto for so long, Mu Han knew how strict the requirements for a woman's reputation were in the aristocratic families.

If they really took action that day, and Xiao Xuetang did not return home all night, the only thing waiting for her when she returned to the Marquis' Mansion was death!

Now that Xiao Xuetang has let bygones be bygones, and he and Xiao Yu have become friends again, Mu Han feels even more guilty and regrets what he has done...

He owed Xiao Xuetang, so he returned to Kyoto not only for revenge but also to repay his gratitude.

Even if he had to die for Xiao Xuetang...he would be willing to do so!

Xiao Xuetang didn't know that Mu Han had so many thoughts in his mind at this time, but when he saw Mu Han's undisguised disgust when he mentioned Ye Jin, he felt something was strange.

In his previous life, Mu Han obeyed Ye Jin's orders and it was widely rumored that the eldest son of the Ru'nan Palace was Ye Jin's servant. But in this life, Mu Han had no such intention towards Ye Jin at all...

Even if her relationship with Mu Han improved a little during the Huguo Temple incident, the impact wouldn't be so great, right?

Xiao Xuetang didn't know at this time that on the first day of her rebirth, she chose a completely different path from her previous life, and the gears of fate had quietly changed...

She subtly changed Mu Han and Ye Jin's plan to join forces, and made Mu Han choose to return to Kyoto. In addition to revenge, he also wanted to repay his gratitude.

Out of gratitude, Mu Han chose Lin Xun, who was close to Xiao Xuetang, from among several forces in Kyoto.

However, the blood-stained ring was not passed from Ye Jin to Lin Shaoshu as in the previous life, allowing Lin Shaoshu to discover the secret of Tianji Palace before Lin Xun...

A good deed brought about a drastic change in her fate and Lin Xun's fate.

At this moment, Xiao Xuetang suppressed her doubts and returned to the topic of the ring...

"How come the ring seized by King Tianji is in the palace?"

Mu Han hesitated for a while before saying, "To be more precise, this ring is in the hands of my mother. She gave it to me."

When Mu Han got 'lost', the only thing he had with him, besides the token that originally belonged to the prince of Runan Palace, was the bronze ring.

That was something his mother risked her life to put in his arms, saying it was very important and could even cause chaos in the world...

“This ring is so important!!!”

Xiao Xuetang looked at Mu Han with a pair of bright black and white eyes...

Mu Han didn't know why, but he felt his cheeks getting slightly hot. Then he said, "In fact, I have worn this ring for all these years, and I haven't found anything magical about it. But since the Regent is willing to make a deal with me because of this ring, he must know what's so strange about this ring."

Without Mu Han's reminder, Xiao Xuetang had already started planning to ask Lin Xun...

Xiao Xuetang thought that he knew the most secrets in his rebirth, but Lin Xun was full of mysteries.

She didn't even discover Lin Xun's secret...

It wasn't a complete failure, at least in this life Xiao Xuetang got to see the face of the mysterious regent, although only half of it.

But Mu Han was different. Although the two had only known each other for a short time, he had no secrets in front of Xiao Xuetang and told her everything, including his deal with Lin Xun.

In exchange, Lin Xun helped Mu Han take back the position of crown prince that rightfully belonged to him.

The Princess of Runan did not die of illness at that time, but was murdered by someone, and the people who killed her were the Prince of Runan and Madam Nan who was sent to the farm outside the city.

Speaking of Madam Nan, that woman who was as sinister as a snake and as cunning as a fox, Xiao Xuetang asked Mu Han, "Has she done anything recently?"

Mu Han shook his head slightly and said to Xiao Xuetang sternly, "That woman is extremely cunning and her methods are extremely treacherous. She was caught cheating in public at the Huguo Temple this time but she managed to escape unscathed. The two Nan wives, the Prince of Runan and the Marquis of Yong'an, are almost obsessed with her. More importantly, she is very cunning and has good connections in Kyoto. She has no weaknesses, so it's not that easy to deal with her."

Hearing this, Xiao Xuetang first flashed a thoughtful look, then smiled slightly, looked at Mu Han and said: "Everyone has weaknesses, even someone as smart as Madam Nan is no exception."

Mu Han looked at the smile on Xiao Xuetang's face, a thoughtful look flashed across his eyes, and said, "Could it be that you have found her weakness?"

This shouldn't be the case...

Mu Han had been back in the palace for so long, and had the convenience of location to investigate Madam Nan, but he still found nothing.

Xiao Xuetang is in the Marquis' Mansion, and Mu Han has heard about the mess going on in the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion. Can he still spare the time to pay attention to Madam Nan?

Unexpectedly, Xiao Xuetang nodded very confidently and said, "Maybe it was uncertain before today, but now it is basically the same. Madam Nan's weakness is in the Marquis' Mansion..."

"what?"

Mu Han was confused and asked, "You're not saying that Madam Nan's weakness is Xiao Yi, are you?"

In Mu Han's opinion, a woman like Madam Nan would do anything for power. She was probably hanging out with Xiao Yi because of the power of the Marquis' Mansion. There was no way she could have any true feelings for him...

Unexpectedly, Xiao Xuetang nodded slightly, and Mu Han's eyes widened in surprise.

Seeing Mu Han's shocked expression, Xiao Xuetang didn't keep him in suspense and asked, "Besides Xiao Yi, isn't there another person in the Marquis' Mansion?"

"Ye Jin!?"

Mu Han was quick-witted. After being reminded by Xiao Xuetang, he reacted instantly and exclaimed, "You mean Ye Jin is them..."

Ye Jin made a 'hush' gesture, deliberately keeping the secret, and said: "Whether it is true or not, we will know in a few days. Then I will bring the prince of the palace and invite you to the marquis's mansion to watch a good show."

Mu Han looked at the bright and cunning smile on Xiao Xuetang's face. Such bright eyes seemed to be able to burn people...

Until Xiao Xuetang left the teahouse, Mu Han's eyes were still on her back.

……

At this time, Xiao Xuetang had just gone downstairs and saw a carriage stopped in front of her.

A slender hand lifted the car curtain, and a familiar voice came: "Get in the car."
