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

Chapter 305 Why is Rongrong drinking alone?

Princess Lingxi never expected that she made a wrong bet!

At this moment, the atmosphere in the hall took a sharp turn for the worse.

Everyone in the Great Zhou Dynasty knew that although the Queen was kind and gentle, the deposed Crown Prince, now Prince An, was her Achilles' heel.

Herme's identity was exposed by Mu Rong, and the queen had already stood up from her chair and walked over slowly.

Walk up to Herme.

The murderous aura of the mother of a country made Hermione tremble, and Princess Lingxi was also frightened by this oppressive aura. She subconsciously took a step back and let Hermione face the queen directly.

The Queen's fingertips gripped Hermé's chin, forcing her to look up: "Your Majesty did not dismiss the people from Prince An's Mansion, so Prince An and his mansion are in Anzhou now. Why... are you here?" Hermé trembled.

Seeing this, Mu Rong smiled and glanced at Princess Lingxi beside him. "Yes, I'm also curious. How did Hermei return to your side? I wonder if all the women in the Northern Frontier have supernatural powers? Can they cross the high walls and return to the palace without being noticed?"

After saying this, even Princess Lingxi turned pale.

Mu Rong had clearly exposed her in front of the Queen, accusing her of bribing the palace guards and allowing people to enter and leave the palace freely...

This concerns the safety of the palace and is the responsibility of the Queen as the head of the six palaces.

This... is another Achilles' heel of the Queen!

"Lingxi, what is going on?" the queen asked coldly.

With a plop, Princess Lingxi knelt down in front of the Queen.

Mu Rong, on the other hand, smiled casually: "Whether it's Prince An or the palace confinement, they are all matters within the imperial family... After all, I am an outsider and it is not convenient for me to interfere. I hope Your Majesty will allow me to take my leave first."

The queen said nothing, but just nodded.

As she watched Mu Rong leave, the queen's eyes looked particularly cold.

……

The heavy palace door slowly closed behind Mu Rong.

His expression became as cold and solemn as the spring night.

He didn't care how the Queen would deal with Princess Lingxi and her servant.

After all, if he wanted to get rid of these two people, he didn't need the queen's help at all.

What's more, given Princess Lingxi's status, the Queen would not punish her severely even if she was angry.

The only thing that concerned him today was what the Queen was planning in this matter! The Queen, under the pretext of being unable to sleep, asked Eunuch Wang to send him to Shaohua Temple so that he could see Hermione in distress and save her.

The moment Hermé opened her eyes and lay on the couch with a look of sorrow, he had seen through her.

After all, in his previous life, he was a Duke with great power in his hands. There were countless women coveting the position of the mistress of the Duke's Mansion.

Among the various kinds of women, there are those who act like noble ladies, those who are humble and submissive and try their best to win favor, those who are proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and those who pretend to be delicate and innocent.

Accustomed to seeing women's thousands of deliberate gestures, Hermione's every move, every word, and every action seemed to him nothing more than cheap seduction.

He was just curious about how this master and servant decided that someone could climb onto his bed by acting so submissively?

As for the Queen, she wasn't helping them, the master and the servant, just to create a rift between herself and Rongrong and bring unrest to the family. Thinking of this, he looked up into the distance.

I wonder what the little girl in the "house" is doing at this moment?

Is there really any grudge against him?

……

It was getting late, and after dinner, Zhuxiang Yayuan gradually fell into silence.

There was only one person, not even a hint of tiredness.

That's Xu Rongrong.

At this moment, she was sitting alone in the garden.

The elegance of Zhuxiang Yayuan has a unique flavor in the night.

She asked Wen Yao to bring peach blossom wine, and then sent all the maids back to sleep.

She sat at the stone table and drank by herself.

She... was a little annoyed. Luo Shu's news was so vague, she obviously shouldn't care so much, but she just couldn't control her feet!

Mu Rong teased her if she was jealous, but she stuck her head out and refused to admit it.

But only she herself knows...

When she heard the woman's cough coming from the carriage, her heart involuntarily skipped a beat. At that moment, her whole chest felt numb and she had an indescribable feeling.

She hadn't felt this way for a long, long time.

So long that...it seems like a memory from the previous life.

She acted as if she didn't care, but when Mu Rong told her that the woman in the car was Hermei.

She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It was as if some worries that had been hidden for a long time were relieved at this moment.

She knew that Mu Rong was plotting something. He...

There is no other woman.

However, her abrupt action made her see the smile hidden in the corner of Mu Rong's eyes.

That was a joke.

It's also a surprise.

she……

Alas, what happened to me today!

A gust of wind blew, and petals from somewhere scattered and fell on the stone table in front of her.

Under the bright moonlight, it emits a light pink luster.

She picked up a fallen flower with her hands and murmured:

Sure enough, it is spring.

Before she knew it, half a bottle of peach wine had been consumed. Xu Rongrong leaned boredly against the stone table, tilting her head to gaze at the hazy moonlight overhead. Another gust of wind blew, this time carrying a hint of elegance.

Xu Rongrong stood up and Mu Rong was standing in front of her, facing her across the table.

She was slightly startled: "Why is the Marquis here?"

"Why did Rongrong go to the clinic in the afternoon?" Mu Rong asked instead of answering.

Xu Rongrong blushed and turned away: "Didn't I tell you, I was just strolling around and happened to pass by."

Mu Rong laughed and said, "I see. I thought Rongrong was going to catch an adulterer."

A joke touched Xu Rongrong's heart. She was so embarrassed that she became angry: "It's so late, and the Marquis came uninvited just to say such nonsense!"

Xu Rongrong's neck was already tinged with a faint pink from the alcohol she'd consumed, and her cheeks were flushed with anger, making her look as beautiful as a peach. Mu Rong's throat rolled involuntarily, and his voice softened. "I'm worried a certain girl might be angry with me because of that lazy afternoon guy. I'm even more worried she'll refuse to marry me out of anger. I've worked so hard to marry such a beautiful woman, how can I allow her to misunderstand me? That's why I had to come all night to explain."

Xu Rongrong felt a little embarrassed by what he said. She raised her glass cup and drank it all in one gulp, muttering softly through her bright red lips, "Didn't the Marquis explain it this afternoon? He just wanted to find out who was behind this through Herme. Now that it's clear, why bother making this trip?"

Mu Rong smiled and sat across from Xu Rongrong: "Since Rongrong knows everything, why do you still drink alone?"

Xu Rongrong: "..."

She just couldn't sleep!

You're not just drinking alone!
