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

Chapter 387 From now on, I will go back to my room earlier

No matter what, Mu Rong never expected that Xu Rongrong would say such a thing.

It made him laugh for a moment.

While speaking, the moon quietly moved its steps, pulling the girl in front of her out of the shadows.

He looked at her smooth jade cheeks and slightly raised his lips: "Why did Rong Rong say that?"

Seeing the dubious look on his face, Xu Rongrong recounted what happened yesterday after Xu Minglai sent him an apology gift, and then revealed that the fourth prince Wu Tianqi sent someone to contact Xu Chaoqian: "... My father is now at the bottom of his official career, and his family's residence is in Xu Mansion in the capital. There is not much land left, and now the only thing that the fourth prince values ​​in him is his identity as a marquis...father-in-law. If the fourth prince wants to use the queen to suppress the third prince in the palace, then if he can use his father outside the palace Come to win over you, Lord Marquis...just like..."

Xu Rongrong stopped talking. She almost said the sentence "It's like controlling you through Lin Jiaoyue in the previous life"...

She pinched her knuckles and continued the previous topic: "Isn't this a conspiracy inside and out?"

Mu Rong looked at her little movements, curled his lips and smiled, feeling cute in his heart.

"So... it's indeed a bit tricky, but why didn't Rong Rong tell me last night?"

Seeing that Mu Rong did not ask her about the abnormality just now, Xu Rongrong breathed a sigh of relief, and then rolled her eyes at him: "I wanted to report to the Marquis yesterday, but you did not return to Xinghui Hall after meeting Lin Jiaoyue last night. This made me How to inform?"

Perhaps because she felt relieved, her words carried a hint of blame. And it was precisely this implication that made Mu Rong hear a hint of jealousy...

There was a slight movement in his heart, and he subconsciously took half a step closer.

Xu Rongrong explained with some incomprehensible eyes: "It's my fault... Lin Jiaoyue's sudden appearance last night made me worry that the queen would join forces with the fourth prince to murder the third brother. Therefore, after she left last night, I went to the palace overnight to look for Chu Vice Commander, he is now responsible for the security inside and outside the palace, and investigating these matters is far more secretive than me."

"It turns out that the Marquis went to find Chuhe last night." Hearing this, Xu Rongrong was a little strange, "Why didn't the Marquis tell Prince Ning directly? Remind him to take more precautions?"

Mu Rong shook his head. "Rongrong, you don't know. Concubine Wei passed away when Third Brother was young... When he suffered the pain of losing his mother, it was the Empress who cared for him day and night, and later, he was directly taken into the Empress's palace... Therefore, his feelings for the Empress are naturally different from others. Right now, there's no concrete evidence of the Empress and the Fourth Prince colluding. If we tell Third Brother now, he could easily leak our knowledge during his audience with the Empress." He sighed. "This time, we're dealing with the Empress. She can conceal her true nature within the harem and maintain her position, while also having the energy to orchestrate Prince An's restoration... Her scheming is evident. With the current precarious situation at court, even the most anxious dare not act rashly. Otherwise, she wouldn't have supported the Fourth Prince to rival Third Brother. But if she discovered Third Brother knew about this, she'd probably act decisively and use the underworld to murder him."

After hearing this, Xu Rongrong thought for a moment, and then said: "It is indeed what the Marquis said. I must have made complete preparations for the Third Prince. I am just a little worried about Sister Mu..."

Mu Qianyin is now nearly seven months pregnant. Although she rarely appears in front of others, the queen is a master of the back house after all. If she has the intention to harm others, Sister Mu will have many tricks even if she doesn't go out.

Mu Rong smiled and said: "Don't worry, several imperial doctors in the palace who are proficient in gynecology have already concluded that Princess Ning is pregnant with a female fetus."

Xu Rongrong was shocked: "The Marquis has even bribed the imperial doctors in the palace. This is a matter of losing their heads, and they are actually willing to do it?"

"I didn't ask them to diagnose the pulse randomly, but what's in your sister Mu's belly is... twins." Mu Rong looked at her, "The imperial doctor in the palace got half of the diagnosis right. At that time, it was speculated that Princess Ning's pulse was more female-like. No one else can find fault."

"Sister Mu is actually pregnant with twins!" Xu Rongrong's eyes widened, and her pretty face became vivid, "I didn't even know!"

"She was also just diagnosed." Mu Rong smiled and rubbed her forehead, "Only the third brother himself and the people who serve Princess Ning know about this matter. As for Wei Shi, whom you and I suspected before, the third brother asked Only two or three days after he revealed the news that Princess Ning was pregnant with a girl, His Majesty sent an imperial physician to diagnose Ping'an pulse."

"So, Wei Shi, the steward of Prince Ning's Mansion, is really His Majesty's man!"

Mu Rong sighed: "Although I don't know why he was bribed by His Majesty, once Princess Ning gives birth to twins safely, his death will come... Being kept in the dark about such a big thing can only mean that he has already He became a useless son."

"When that time comes, we will know why he betrayed His Highness Prince Ning." After Xu Rongrong finished speaking, he thought of another thing, "How about Chu He in the palace? I haven't seen him for several months. !”

Mu Rong felt sour in his heart when he saw that she addressed her husband as "Hou Ye" and called him "Hou Ye", but she was extremely affectionate when talking about Chuhe.

He cleared his throat: "He is now the most trusted person in front of His Majesty. If he had not been in the palace for a short time, I am afraid that this subtitle would have to be removed."

Xu Rongrong became happy when he heard this: "That's natural. With his ability, sooner or later he will be able to control the entire Forbidden Army."

In his previous life, Chu He was a leader of the Imperial Guards, known for his ruthless killings. Besides ensuring the safety of the palace, he led countless raids on the homes of civil and military officials, eventually commandeering the entire capital and surrounding security forces. Now, his mere role as deputy commander of the Imperial Guards was a waste of his talent. However, Xu Rongrong's happiness left Mu Rong feeling uneasy.

He took another half step closer. Behind Xu Rongrong was the window frame on the second floor of Wangjiang Pavilion, so she seemed to be framed by him.

His body suddenly sank a little more, and he changed the subject in a hoarse voice: "Listening to what Rong Rong said just now, could it be that you waited for me very late last night?"

The atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous for some reason.

Xu Rongrong couldn't help but want to escape.

But at some point, Mu Rong's arms were already supported on the window frames on the left and right sides. It was as if she was trapped in his arms. No matter which direction she wanted to escape from, she would inevitably run into his arms. .

She raised her head and ran into his deep eyes.

Xu Rongrong coughed twice: "It's just to uphold what Brother Ming said to Lord Ming."

Mu Rong chuckled: "From now on, I will definitely go back to my room earlier."

"Uh?" Xu Rongrong was slightly startled...

This is not necessary.
