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

Chapter 291 Just expose him

Although Mu Yi is not very old, he has been in charge of the internal affairs of the Marquis' Mansion since the old Marquis and his wife died on the battlefield.

After more than ten years, he has become an expert in handling miscellaneous affairs.

It was this kind of person who was chosen by the pawnbrokers as a "burden" person like Xiao Ma to be the manager of a farm in the southern suburbs.

Xu Rongrong absolutely did not believe that there was no hidden secret.

Furthermore, not long after she met Luo Xiao when she went south, Nanny Xiao was taken by Mu Yi to the manor owned by the Marquis's manor. Now she was brought to her place again...

Are things in this world really so coincidental?

She looked at Wen Yao and said, "Come with me to see the Marquis tomorrow."

The next afternoon, Mu Yi entered the study room with the visiting card handed to him by Zhuxiang Yayuan.

Mu Rong had just returned from the Ministry of War. Now Lin Zhihen was being dragged down by his children and gradually lost the emperor's favor. In addition, the emperor had his eyes on the northern border, so he asked Mu Rong to join the military department to take charge of some tasks.

He had just changed into his regular clothes when he turned around and saw Mu Yi with a strange look on his face. So he asked, "Why do you look like this?"

Mu Yi handed over the invitation: "Miss Xu invites the Marquis to have tea at Fanlou."

Did the sun rise from the west today? The eldest lady actually wants to invite the marquis for tea...

Mu Rong was also slightly startled, and he stretched out his hand.

Mu Yi hurriedly handed over the post.

The few lines of beautiful small characters were indeed written by her hand...

This surprised Mu Rong very much. He knew that Luo Xiao's mother and daughter had visited Zhuxiang Yayuan yesterday. After all, he was the one who secretly asked Shu Qing to facilitate this.

He originally thought that with the visit of Luo Xiao and her daughter, everyone in Zhuxiang Yayuan would have something new to talk about, and no one would notice that he had not appeared for a long time. But now it seems that the development of things is very different from what he originally imagined?

"Master?" Mu Yi woke the Marquis from his deep thoughts, "Are you ready to keep the appointment?"

Mu Rong nodded: "Of course I want it."

"Then I'll arrange it right away." Mu Yi said and was about to go down to prepare the horse.

But he had taken just two steps when Mu Rong called out, "How do I look today?"

Mu Yi nearly sprained his waist when he heard this. He turned his head. Somehow, after listening to the questions asked by his own marquis, he always felt that the master standing in front of him had suddenly become a little hesitant from the extraordinary first-rank military marquis... "How is it?" Mu Rong naturally had no idea what the chief official in his mansion was thinking about. Seeing that the other party was a little dazed, he urged him.

Mu Yi quickly came back to his senses: The Marquis is still the same Marquis.

So he quickly replied, "The Marquis has been looking much paler than usual these days, perhaps because he's trying to detoxify the young lady. I'm afraid the young lady can't hide this from you."

Mu Rong did not hide the fact that he had detoxified Xu Rongrong from his trusted subordinates, but they did not know the price he paid.

In the past few days, he has been meditating and regulating his breathing every day to fight against the ice poison in his body. Even the emperor has mentioned several times whether he is too tired recently. It is for this reason that he suppresses his longing and does not go to Zhuxiang Yayuan.

And now, his little girl came to him...

How can this be good?

If he avoided seeing her, he would be reluctant. Thinking of this, he waved his hand and said, "Go down and prepare the horse first. I will come over later."

"Yes."

After closing the door, Mu Rong secretly thought about how to deal with the situation in the study.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up: Got it.

Half a minute later, Mu Rong mounted his horse and headed towards Fanlou.

In the servants' room in the backyard of the Marquis's mansion, a maid had just received the news that the Marquis would no longer be dining at the mansion. She breathed a sigh of relief, stretched herself, and returned to her room. After closing the door, she heard a low cry from inside the room: "Who moved my rouge box?"

……

The marriage between Marquis Weiyuan and Princess Ping'an was known to everyone in the capital.

According to etiquette, a woman who is about to marry cannot meet her fiancé privately before the wedding. But... who is Weiyuan Hou? Besides the emperor, who in the capital dares to control him, and who dares to spread gossip about him?

Therefore, the shopkeeper of Fanlou was only slightly startled when he saw Xu Rongrong, and then he quickly invited her to the third floor: "The Marquis is already waiting for the county lady in the wing room."

Xu Rongrong thanked the shopkeeper, left Wen Yao alone, and pushed the door open and went in.

Today, Mu Rong was wearing a dark-colored long gown, standing in front of the window with his hands behind his back, a golden belt tied tightly around his waist, making him look even taller and more upright.

Somehow, Xu Rongrong felt a little relieved.

I haven't seen him these days, but he seems to be fine.

Hearing the noise, Mu Rong turned around.

Wen Yan smiled and said, "You're here."

This smile seemed to make the room a little brighter. Xu Rongrong nodded: "Yeah." The shopkeeper personally brought tea and snacks.

After he left, Xu Rongrong looked at Mu Rong and said hesitantly, "The Marquis seems to have lost a lot of weight."

Mu Rong did not deny that he looked bad... He could also use other means to cover it up, but it was difficult to change this fatness or thinness in a short time.

Fortunately, he had already thought of a response: "Your Majesty has asked me to take charge of the Ministry of War these days. Lin Zhihen will naturally not give up his power honestly. He keeps making trouble and is really difficult to deal with."

Sure enough, Xu Rongrong's attention was diverted to the Lin family's affairs.

"The Lin family... has they lost the emperor's favor?" Xu Rongrong asked.

Mu Rong nodded. "Lin Zhihen's clan has dwindled, and his only remaining support is his son and daughter. Now his son has become a cripple and can no longer return to the army. His daughter has not only damaged the Fourth Prince's reputation, but has also been completely disfigured... This has made His Majesty even more dissatisfied, and naturally he will gradually divide his power."

"It seems that he won't be able to hold the position of Minister of War for much longer." Xu Rongrong thought.

"If he had taken the initiative to cancel Lin Jiaoyue's marriage to the Fourth Prince, perhaps His Majesty would have been grateful and given him another chance. Unfortunately, he absolutely dared not take that risk... Now Lin Chu is seeking a divorce from him again, and the marriages of their children have only been put on hold for a short while."

"I guess the day Lin Jiaoyue gets married will be the day Lin Zhihen completely loses power." Xu Rongrong said with a smile.

Thinking of the arrogant Lin family in her previous life, who almost caused the fall of the Great Zhou Dynasty, she felt relieved to see that they had met such a fate.

Mu Rong sat opposite her, looking at her smiling face, how could he not know what she was thinking.

In his previous life, his little girl was repeatedly assassinated by Lin Jiaoyue, and the arrow that hit her chest was also shot at Lin Jiaoyue's instigation.

To avenge her in his previous life, and also to vent his anger for her in this life, this was his motivation for attacking the Lin family in this life. He lowered his head and silently took a sip of the elegant tea.

I just feel the fragrance lingering on my lips and teeth, which is very sharp.

However, before he had even swallowed the second sip of tea, Xu Rongrong's voice rang out, "Madam Xiao was deliberately sent to my residence by the Marquis, right? I'm sure the Marquis has already ascertained her background."

Mu Rong almost choked.
