You died to save me, I promise you a lifetime

Waiting to leave at dawn were also the men of the eldest prince and the second prince.

They were ordered to come here and find an opportunity to destroy the relationship between Lin Jinhao and Mu Yunge.

As a result, as soon as he got up the mountain, he was attacked by several groups of people in turn. He was dizzy and fought randomly for a long time.

The original plan was to make Lin Jinhao have an affair with someone else so that the strong-willed Mu Yunge would take the initiative to cancel the engagement.

But before they could free up their hands, something happened at the Zen temple. It was a serious matter that could not be resolved amicably, and the effect would definitely be many times better than if they took action.

"Who is so powerful?"

The eldest prince Zhao Hongbo's men, confused, found a safe place to hide and rest.

On the other side, the second prince Zhao Hongyang's men were waiting to return to the city at dawn to report.

Someone who liked to think about it asked, "Boss, do you think the person we met tonight is from the First Prince's Mansion, the Third Prince's Mansion, or the Duke of Yongguo's Mansion? Or all three?"

"It's hard to say. The groups of people we fought were all quite skilled. One group's moves were lethal, while the others didn't kill us. Their intentions are unknown.

It seems we're not the only ones who don't want the Lin and Mu families to marry. This marriage is definitely going to fall through."

"That's not necessarily true. What if two sisters marry at the same time? There are many such cases."

"Okay, stop talking. What if we attract those people again and the fight goes on and on?"

For a moment, everyone kept silent.

After leaving Puhua Temple, Zhao Jingchen and his group walked quickly all the way. When passing through a forest, Zhao Jingchen raised his hand and asked everyone to stop.

"Ling Feng, Ling Yun, and Ling Zhi stay here. You wait here for Miss Mu. She will probably leave after daybreak. Escort her back to the capital in secret, just in case."

Anton panicked when he heard this: "Your Majesty, you said they would ambush the young lady?"

"It's just a precaution. The possibility is not high. Let's go and return to the city as soon as possible."

General's Mansion.

At the end of midnight, Anton and her sisters quietly returned to the general's mansion.

Regardless of the midnight, she went to the main courtyard to ask for an audience with Guo Shu: "Madam, your servant Anton has something important to report!"

inside the house.

Ever since Mu Yunge left with Mu Qinxue, Guo Shu's heart has been in turmoil.

At dusk, the old man returned home and was busy with everything. She was so busy that she didn't go back to her room to rest until very late.

He lay down, but kept thinking about what might have happened in Puhua Temple. The more he slept, the more awake he became. As he was tossing and turning in bed, he heard Anton's voice asking for a meeting.

He didn't care about anything else now and shouted, "Anton, come in quickly!"

The old maid in the room opened the door and said, "Miss Anton, Madam wants you to come in."

Anton walked in and saluted quickly, "Madam, something happened at Puhua Temple. The young lady has suffered a great humiliation. Mu Qinxue and Master Lin are together."

Even though she already knew this, Guo Shu was still so angry that her head was buzzing. "Explain the matter carefully."

"The young lady stayed in the Zen temple set up by Mu Qinxu, and we went to the peach forest together in the afternoon. We met Master Lin and others in the peach forest..." Anton recounted in detail what happened in Puhua Temple.

"They were so impatient that they rolled together as soon as they got there today.

In this case, we don't need to worry about any feelings. When Ge'er comes back, we will go to the palace to ask the emperor to cancel the engagement.

This time, even if it means risking my reputation, I will still need the Emperor's approval."

Guo Shu quickly calmed down her swollen head and said, "You've worked hard all day, go and rest."

Anton agreed, brushed himself off and left.

After Guo Shu walked around the room a few times, she was about to sit back on the bed when a secret guard called out from outside, "Madam, the old man wants to know what happened?"

I didn't want to disturb the old man so late at night, but I didn't expect that he already knew about it. It must be Anton and the others who came back and alarmed the people serving him.

"Reply and tell him I'm going to see him right away and have something important to discuss with him."

Guo Shu packed up quickly, asked her maid Zi Su to carry the lantern, and hurried to the old man's Songhe Courtyard in the front yard.

At this time, the old man who had received the reply was already sitting in the flower hall, looking towards the door with a serious face.

Seeing Guo Shu, the old man asked anxiously: "Ge'er's mother, is there something wrong with Ge'er?"

When Guo Shu heard the old man's voice, she felt reassured.

Her eyes were red, and her voice was choked with sobs as she said, "Dad, Ge'er is fine. It was Mu Qinxue who got together with Lin the kid from the Duke's Mansion. Everyone saw them running out of the house naked."

"What? Xue'er, how dare she? This bastard has completely disgraced our entire Mu family! Explain to me exactly what's going on!"

Guo Shu did not dare to hide it, so she told Mu Yunge in detail about how he fell into the water and fell asleep in the palace, and everything that happened after he woke up.

The old man narrowed his eyes, "You mean, the prince not only saved Mu Chun and Mu Rong, but also helped Ge'er and the others tonight?"

"Yes, Anton said that if the prince hadn't directed what happened tonight, even if they could make the matter public, Anton and the others would not have been able to escape unscathed."

The old man clenched his fists. Having fought against enemies on the battlefield all his life, he keenly understood the current situation of the general's mansion.

"Before Ge'er comes back, don't make any noise in the General's Mansion. Don't ruin the Prince and Ge'er's plans! Remember, we are the victims!"

"My daughter-in-law knows. Don't worry too much. Ge'er said that she and the prince will take care of everything."

"Well, you go and have a rest. Ge'er has grown up and can stand on her own." The old man waved his hand.

"Then tomorrow..."

"Everything must be done according to Ge'er's wishes! We accepted the imperial edict against our will and sacrificed Ge'er's lifelong happiness to agree to the marriage, but this is the ending.

Go, wait for Ge'er to come back, I will accompany her to the palace."

Puhua Temple.

As soon as the sky was slightly bright, Lin Jinhao hurried away with his men.

After walking out of Puhua Temple, a secret guard asked softly: "Prince, do you want Miss Mu to come over here?" As he spoke, he made a gesture of wiping his neck.

"They must rush back to the capital at daybreak. The mountain roads are difficult to travel on, and they are in a hurry, so it's normal for them to make mistakes."

Lin Jinhao frowned and was silent for a moment, "Now that this has happened, even if she dies, it won't make any difference, we are still not free from this responsibility.

Now, the most important thing is for us to hurry back to the city and discuss countermeasures."

Mu Yunge, who was discussing life and death with them, was a step behind them. He waited until daybreak, packed up everything, ate some steamed buns and porridge brought by the monks, and then got up and left.

When he left, he didn't care whether Mu Qinxue was leaving or not. He got into his carriage and drove away.

Xiao Cui happened to see Mu Yunge and the others leaving: "Miss, Miss Yunge and the others have left. Should we leave or stay?"

"Let's go. It's already like this, why are you still staying?!"

Xiao Cui reminded, "Staying here can temporarily avoid the General's Mansion."

Mu Qinxue pulled at the corner of her swollen mouth. "You can hide on the first day, but can you hide on the fifteenth? Sooner or later, we have to face it. Let's go."

Several maids hurriedly packed up.

Holding Mu Qinxue, he lowered his head and walked quickly towards the carriage...
