Chapter 218: The sins of the past life are returned in this life

The afternoon sun shines through the glass onto the table bit by bit, and the light spots keep moving, waiting for the rare winter warmth.

Fanlou is the first of the four major restaurants in Beijing and the number one restaurant in Beijing. The delicious food on the table is naturally different from that elsewhere.

Xu Rongrong was not a greedy person, but she could not resist Mu Rong's continuous efforts.

He could keenly discover Xu Rongrong's preferences from between her eyebrows and feed them to her in different ways.

Until Xu Rongrong refused: "No more... No more..."

Mu Lu, who was originally guarding the door, was already a little sleepy, but the sound coming from the room startled him:

As expected, his own master was more resourceful. As a precaution, he took two steps back until he could no longer hear any movement, and then he gave up.

Unlike Mu Lu's cautious behavior outside, Mu Rong put a pear blossom dessert in Xu Rongrong's hand in a fancy way: "Rongrong is too thin, you should eat more."

Eat more, get well soon, don't make him... wait too long.

Xu Rongrong had no idea what the person next to her was thinking. The dim sum was so exquisitely made that even though she was full, she felt like she could still eat a little more.

Just as I took a bite, there was a noise from the street outside.

Mu Rong curled his lips and smiled: "Here I come."

There was a hint of coldness in his smile.

Xu Rongrong didn't understand what was going on, so she looked over curiously.

Two teams of fully armed imperial guards led the way, followed by two prisoner carts, one in front and one behind. The man in the front cart had messy hair and a sallow complexion, but it was obvious at a glance that he was an official.

In the prison van at the back, there was a emaciated man with disheveled hair and a dirty face, who looked like an ordinary citizen.

Xu Rongrong's eyes flickered, and she understood instantly: "This is... Chang Jing was escorted to the capital?"

Mu Rong nodded, picked up the teacup on the table with one hand and took a sip.

Looking at the thin man in the prison van behind, Xu Rongrong remembered what Mu Rong had said:

Crown Prince Wu Tianao sent a message to Chang Jing, ordering him to find someone from his clan to take the blame for him at the critical moment.

I guess this person is the unlucky member of the Chang family.

She looked at Mu Rong. "This scapegoat chosen by Chang Jing seems quite honest and obedient. What if he really takes all the blame on himself? How will the Marquis deal with it?"

Mu Rong laughed and said, "This man isn't innocent. He was involved in the human trafficking at the Imperial Farm. On several occasions, he personally escorted the civilians that Chang Jing transported to the Fanwai area."

"Oh?"

Xu Rongrong hadn't expected that Mu Rong had already thoroughly investigated this person's background. She couldn't help but feel a little worried: "But if this is true, this person took the blame for Chang Jing, and His Majesty in the palace might actually be fooled."

"No." Mu Rong said firmly.

"My Lord, do you have a way to resolve this situation?"

Mu Rong nodded. "In the Huangzhuang case, we have both witnesses and evidence. If Chang Jing and the Crown Prince want to escape, this is their only way. But what if this person is no longer around?"

Xu Rongrong was puzzled, but when she saw Mu Rong's calm expression, she suddenly understood. She was filled with surprise and doubt: "My Lord, you want to..."

Before she could finish her words, Mu Rong covered her eyes: "Rongrong, don't look."

In the blink of an eye, a sharp arrow shot from nowhere pierced the temple of the Chang family member in the prison car.

"Ah..." Amid the people's screams, the man fell down softly.

The imperial guards were also in an uproar. They drew their swords and looked around for suspicious people.

But the first month of the year is the most prosperous time in the capital, and we are now in the downtown area. Trying to find any suspicious traces is like looking for a needle in a haystack!

Mu Rong let go of Xu Rongrong: "It's too dirty outside, I'm afraid it will pollute your eyes."

Xu Rongrong stared at him in amazement: "What happened just now...was it arranged by the Marquis?"

Mu Rong nodded and held Xu Rongrong tighter in his arms: "Now, no one can cover up for the Crown Prince and Chang Jing."

The most difficult part of the Crown Prince and Chang Jing's escape plan is Your Majesty.

Everyone knows that the current emperor favors the prince. If someone really comes forward to take the blame, there is no guarantee that Your Majesty will not go along with it.

But if you want to solve this situation, relying solely on intelligence doesn't offer much chance of success.

Breaking it by force is also a good method.

The situation outside was somewhat out of control, so the imperial guards called in the runners from the Jingzhao Yinfu to surround the entire street.

Mu Rong glanced at him casually and said, "I'm afraid we won't be able to leave until dark."

"It seems that the Marquis had planned everything, but he didn't expect to trap you and me here." Xu Rongrong looked at him.

The man looked lazy and said, "How could you know, Rongrong? This is not part of my plan."

As he spoke, his face gradually approached.

"Being able to snuggle up with Rongrong like this and sit here for half a day makes me happier than getting rid of the crown prince."

Xu Rongrong: "..." The charcoal fire in the room was steaming hot, and Xu Rongrong's face was also smoked red. In Mu Rong's eyes, she looked indescribably shy.

He was so busy feeding her just now that he felt a little hungry now.

However, the food he wanted was not the delicacies in Fanlou, but...

The person in front of me.

He gradually approached, forcing Xu Rongrong into a corner.

Perhaps it was because Mu Rong had shown his gentle side to her these days, which made her forget that he was a cold-hearted and decisive man at heart.

The cold arrow just now woke her up again.

And now, his gradually approaching aura merged with the coldness in his memory.

Xu Rongrong couldn't stop shaking.

Mu Rong's body, which had been suppressed for a long time, was clamoring desperately. He originally just wanted to get closer, but the girl's abnormality forced him to stop.

Xu Rongrong's eyes were tightly closed, her lips were tightly pursed, and her whole body was trembling...

It was like being trapped in a nightmare.

Mu Rong knew that he seemed to scare her.

So he quickly calmed down, pulled the girl into his arms, and patted her back gently.

Xu Rongrong couldn't help sobbing, and her crying became louder and louder.

And Mu Lu, who was unaware of the truth outside the door...

Listening to the intermittent sobbing sounds in the house, I just want to escape immediately!

The girl's crying was heartbreaking. Mu Rong was afraid that she would hurt herself if she continued like this, so he touched her sleeping point.

Xu Rongrong finally calmed down, her brows relaxed, as if she had escaped from a nightmare. She slumped softly into Mu Rong's arms.

Mu Rong looked at the sleeping girl and sighed helplessly:

The sins committed in the previous life can only be repaid slowly in this life.

He carefully put Xu Rongrong down, took the cloak and covered her with it, tucking her in tightly for fear that she would catch a cold.

Just as I finished all this, I heard a sound of hurried footsteps.

He understood that the imperial guards had arrived.

After the incident just now, the imperial guards blocked the entire street, and the next step was to search every house.

These people are used to being clumsy, and it would be a problem if they woke up the little girl in his family.
