I don't want to be the favorite concubine of this palace anymore

After the engagement was completed, An Muxi and Li Rui hadn't met each other, but An Muxi was very calm at the moment. After all, there was a long time to come and there was no need to rush.

After she had a mutual understanding with Li Rui, she felt relieved and enjoyed the rare life of being cared for by her family and loved ones.

Suddenly she remembered something and asked Qiu Shuang and Qiu Yue, "Did you two hear anything last night?"

The two looked at each other and shook their heads.

The more An Muxi thought about it, the more suspicious she felt: "You guys..."

Qiu Shuang and Qiu Yue knelt down immediately when they saw that the situation was not right: "Master, we are always loyal to you now."

These two girls were bought when she was in Prince Rui's Mansion, but An Muxi suddenly remembered that every time Li Rui sneaked into her room in the middle of the night, these two girls pretended to be dead.

She had never been reminded of this, and the two seemed to be very familiar with Dark Dragon, which made her feel suspicious.

"Tell me the truth, both of you. Were you Li Rui's people in the past?"

Finally, the two admitted: "We are from the secret guard camp of the Rui Palace. But the prince asked us to be loyal to you only, so we never reported anything to the prince again."

Qiu Shuang glanced at An Muxi and added, "Except when you are in danger."

An Muxi sighed lightly. It turned out that he had started to place people around her so early.

But seeing that he was worried about her and wanted to protect him, she forgave him.

After all, even the closest lovers have their own privacy, and she certainly doesn't like being monitored around the clock.

But the feeling of being touched still prevailed in my heart.

At this time Qiu Shuang said: "Master, don't you want to go and see the betrothal gifts sent by the prince?"

An Muxi was stunned and became a little interested.

When I arrived at the front yard, I saw that it was filled with a large pile of betrothal gifts covered with red cloth.

Wu was directing people to count the quantity and prepare to send it to a large warehouse. Because the quantity was too large, a special warehouse was vacated.

Seeing An Muxi coming over, Wu smiled.

"Xi'er, mother really didn't expect that you would get married so soon."

Mrs. Wu took An Muxi's hand and sat down on a chair beside her: "His Royal Highness Prince Rui likes you very much. I can see that he values ​​you very much. He also promised us that he will take good care of you, so I feel relieved."

"Xi'er, you still don't know when your wedding is scheduled, right?"

An Muxi shook her head in confusion: "I don't know."

"Because your brother's wedding is in a month, your wedding will be scheduled for a month and a half later."

An Muxi was speechless. This must be the time chosen by Li Rui. If it weren't for Bai Jingchen's wedding coming up, he would probably want to marry her tomorrow.

Mrs. Wu thought she was embarrassed and stroked her hair lovingly.

"Don't worry, Prince Rui's Mansion is not far from our home, you can still go home often, and mother will visit you when she is free."

An Muxi held Wu's hand and said, "I know, Mom. Don't worry, I will take good care of myself."

At this time, the doorman came to report that Gu Anyan and Jiang Siyu had arrived.

Mrs. Wu said, "Let them in quickly. They are probably here to congratulate you."

An Muxi knew that she was weak when she came back, so Mrs. Wu helped her block many visitors.

After Gu Anyan and Jiang Siyu came in, they bowed and greeted Mrs. Wu.

Mrs. Wu smiled and said, "Okay, don't be polite to me. Xi'er, take them to your yard and sit for a while."

An Muxi was also very happy to see her best friend, and quickly took the two of them back to her own yard.

After entering the house, the maids served tea and snacks and then left.

Gu Anyan looked at An Muxi and said distressedly, "We wanted to come see you a few days ago. Your elder brother said that you were weak and needed to rest. Are you feeling better now?"

An Muxi stood up, turned around, and said with a smile: "Look, I'm fine, aren't I?"

Jiang Siyu said: "I see that you are in good spirits, but you are a little thinner than before."

An Muxi nodded: "Yes, this experience in Tianqi will be unforgettable for me."

The two of them immediately started asking.

An Muxi recounted how she went to Southern Xinjiang to rescue Divine Doctor Gao, and how she was abducted by Feng Qingyu and taken to Tianqi Country.

The two people were shocked to hear this. It took Gu Anyan a long time to come back to his senses. "There really is such a thing as souls leaving the body. I always thought that only happened in stories about cultivating immortals."

Jiang Siyu also nodded: "Xi'er, your blessing is yet to come. I think His Royal Highness Prince Rui is truly sincere to you. I'm afraid there are not many men in this world who can do this for the woman they love."

An Muxi agreed in her heart. It was only after she knew that Dark Dragon was Li Rui last night that she realized that Li Rui had done so many things for her: "I hope so, but King Rui is very good."

Seeing that she had changed her tone towards King Rui, they both laughed and teased her a few words.

An Muxi asked Jiang Siyu again: "Siyu, how are you and Master Lu doing?"

Since Lu Qingfeng was rescued by Li Rui, he has stayed in the west to guard the western border. However, now the leader of the Western Frontier has become Rena's brother Bayar, and the two countries have signed a hundred-year friendship treaty.

The border has stabilized and is much safer.

Jiang Siyu was a little shy: "He will be back soon to marry me."

An Muxi was really happy for Jiang Siyu: "That's great, I will definitely participate then."

She looked at Gu Anyan again: "Sister-in-law, let's not be polite. You will be married in a month anyway."

Gu Anyan likes An Muxi very much, and they are best friends. She is very satisfied with this sister-in-law.

"You just know how to tease us. You're getting married soon, but you're still not serious."

The morning passed quickly as they chatted and laughed. An Muxi had lunch with the two of them before sending them away.

She thought about how her shop was doing now, and Xiaoqin and Xiaoyun were probably very worried about her.

But because of their low status, it is not convenient for them to come and visit.

She found Wu and said, "Mom, I want to go see how the store is doing."

Mrs. Wu was a little helpless: "You, mother will arrange a few people to help you run the shop, so you don't have to worry about it in the future. Just wait for your marriage, okay?"

These young ladies from wealthy families just look at the account books every month at most, they don't do everything by themselves.

An Muxi thought about it and realized that her body had not recovered yet and she really needed to rest for a while. She hadn't received any bad news from the store, which meant that everything was normal.

I can also wait to get married with peace of mind.

"Mom, I'll go take a look today and tell her some things. I don't need to worry about that anymore."

Wu had no choice but to agree: "Okay, then let your elder brother accompany you today. During this period of time, you must let your elder brother accompany you when you go out."

Mrs. Wu was really scared. She was afraid that her daughter would be in danger again and she really wouldn't be able to bear it.

An Muxi nodded, then went to look for Bai Jingchen, only to find that Bai Jingchen was not in the house.

After a while, Bai Jingchen came back from outside with a smile on his face.

An Muxi looked at Bai Jingchen teasingly: "Brother, are you going to see your sister-in-law off?"

Bai Jingchen admitted generously: "Yes, I said a few words to her by the way."

"Mother asked you to go out with me. I want to go check out my shop."

Bai Jingchen quickly said seriously: "Okay, you go and pack up first, I'll go gather some guards."

His sister is now a key protected person, and when Bai Jingchen heard that she was going out, he felt like he was facing a great enemy.

So in less than an incense stick of time, An Muxi saw dozens of guards standing in a neat row at the gate of Ningguo Mansion.

She held her forehead with her hand, thinking how come this scene looked like a gang fight.

Bai Jingchen was already waiting on his horse. He watched An Muxi and Qiu Shuang and Qiu Yue get on the carriage before giving the order to set off.

A group of people escorted a horse-drawn carriage through the city in a grand manner, causing discussions among passers-by.

An Muxi didn't care at all. After Li Rui's high-profile proposal, she was already in the spotlight.

She looked at the crowd outside the car window with a little emotion, and suddenly she saw a pair of resentful eyes. The target of those eyes was not her, but seemed to be Bai Jingchen outside.

These were the eyes of a woman. An Muxi felt that they were somewhat familiar. She quickly leaned on the car window and looked back, and saw a tall figure hurriedly leaving with a woman in gorgeous clothes.
