Those who were on good terms with Song Yurou were happy to watch the joke together.

Even if others disagreed with Song Yurou's action, this matter was ultimately a family affair of Prince Qi's Mansion, so they were not in a position to say more.

I can only look away silently.

Song Yurou looked at Mu Zhou's pale face, and a sense of relief surged in her heart. She said to the others:

"How about we go to the plum garden and take a look? I heard that the red plum blossoms in the Princess's mansion are in full bloom and are quite spectacular. When we come back, my cousin should be able to tell them apart."

Song Yurou was not afraid that Mu Zhou would be lazy if left alone.

In her opinion, Mu Zhou was as timid as a mouse, and would only pick things in a panic after receiving her instructions.

The others didn't want to stay any longer, so they all stood up and left.

Shu Yuyan glanced at Mu Zhou sideways before leaving.

Looking at her timid appearance, a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.

She had actually spent some time and effort on such a woman before.

Just ridiculous.

She raised her chin slightly and left with everyone.

After everyone left, the maid Chun Tao saw that Mu Zhou was actually trying to reach into the round plate, and stopped him anxiously:

"Miss, you can't do that. The water is so cold. Your hands will get frostbitten and scratched. It won't get any better."

Mu Zhou laughed bitterly:

"If I fail to complete the Second Young Lady's order, she will definitely punish me again."

This has happened more than once before.

It was common in the past to mix chess pieces of different materials together, either in ice water or hot water, and let Mu Zhou choose.

The original owner always obeyed with trepidation.

But Chuntao was specially chosen by the eldest lady to serve Mu Zhou, and she was also instructed by the nanny before coming. Naturally, she understood that it was the second lady who was bullying others.

So she stopped Mu Zhou and said indignantly:

"Miss Cousin, I'm going to go find the eldest lady. She will definitely not allow the second lady to bully you like this."

After saying that, he trotted back to the hall.

How could the maids beside Song Yurou not have thought of this, so they stopped her outside the hall early and led Chuntao somewhere else.

Mu Zhou naturally knew all this.

She sat at the stone table, one hand resting on her chin, the fingertips of the other hand tapping lightly on the stone table.

After finding out the respective locations of 0001 Song Wenchao and Song Yurou, she plunged her hands into the icy cold water.

*

Song Wenchao didn't originally want to attend the eldest princess's banquet.

But some time ago, the prince made a mistake and was confined to his house by the emperor for a period of time. It was not easy for him to show up in public, so he could only meet with Song Wenchao on such occasions.

Song Wenchao had just met with the prince in private and was about to leave when a woman came straight towards him.

He was hit in the chest. The force was not strong and it was nothing to him, but it was different for the woman.

He lowered his eyes and saw that the woman seemed to have hit her forehead. There was a red spot on her fair skin. Perhaps because of the unbearable pain, her eyes were filled with tears.

I can still cry like this.

Song Wenchao couldn't help but think.

The person in his arms was not someone else but Mu Zhou.

She suddenly raised her head, and after seeing that it was Song Wenchao, she forgot to shed tears and murmured in disbelief, "Your Highness..."

The footsteps behind him became more and more obvious. Mu Zhou looked back in panic. Without thinking too much, he pushed Song Wenchao to hide in the gap of the rockery nearby.

Song Wenchao frowned as he watched her movements and was about to speak:

"you……"

Before he could finish, Mu Zhou raised his hand to cover his lips and looked at her pleadingly.

Her eyes were filled with tears as she looked up at him, her pupils trembling slightly and causing tears to fall one by one.

He looks weak and can be bullied.

Her hands were not big enough to cover half of his face, but they were unusually soft and cold.

Faintly, there was a hint of blood smell coming into his nose.

Song Wenchao frowned, wondering what he was thinking about.

The next moment, he grabbed Mu Zhou's wrist with one hand, trying to take her hand away.

Mu Zhou was frightened, thinking that he was going to blame him, so he moved closer to him, almost sticking to him, covering his mouth with both hands, and said in a trembling voice:

"Your Highness, please..."

A faint fragrance filled his nose, and the soft body was so close to him that Song Wenchao's breath was held.

He finally understood why he felt nothing when she bumped into his arms just now.

How could such a weak and boneless body have any strength?

At this time, Mu Zhou's attention had been attracted by the outside world. She tilted her head slightly and seemed to swallow nervously.

And Song Wenchao just looked at her with his eyes lowered.

Looking at her face that is as close as a flower.

flower?

indeed.

He suddenly remembered the description the second prince had given her in the past.

He said Mu Zhou was as pretty as a peach blossom.

At that time, he had no impression of Mu Zhou and did not take that sentence to heart.

At this moment, he somewhat agreed.

At the same time, there was also an inexplicable sense of unease.

How many people have seen her face like this?

At this time, outside the rockery, the voices of several servants were heard:

"That's weird. I clearly saw that person running towards us, but now he's gone."

"We have to catch that guy, otherwise the prince will definitely make us pay!"

Song Wenchao no longer tried to get rid of Mu Zhou, but followed her force and looked outside.

The three servants were wearing very distinctive clothes; they were from the family of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery.

Combined with what the two said, it is clear who they are working for.

After everyone left, Mu Zhou finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She seemed to have lost all her strength and almost leaned on Song Wenchao.

Song Wenchao didn't move at all, his chest barely rising or falling.

After a while, Mu Zhou seemed to suddenly realize something. He quickly withdrew his hand, stood up straight, and hid backward, leaning against the other side of the rockery.

"Prince, I'm sorry, I was too nervous just now."

She lowered her head and clasped her hands together.

Song Wenchao glanced at her hands and caught a glimpse of the red marks on her palms.

It seemed as if an old wound had been reopened.

He recalled the day when she had injured her hand when she had stopped in front of the horse.

Mu Zhou clasped her hands together and soon felt a hint of stickiness. She raised her hands to take a look, then subconsciously looked at Song Wenchao.

There was indeed a trace of blood on his chin.

Mu Zhou hurriedly took out his handkerchief and was about to wipe him, but quickly withdrew his hand and just handed it to him:

"Sir, there's blood here. I'm sorry. It's my fault."

Mu Zhou apologized eagerly. Song Wenchao glanced at her handkerchief and took it.

He wrapped the handkerchief around his palm twice, then raised his hand and rubbed it casually on his chin, and the bloodstain quickly disappeared.

Her handkerchief is as simple as she is.

Only one corner of the white handkerchief was embroidered with a peach blossom.

Mu Zhou was about to take it back when he heard Song Wenchao suddenly say:

"In the end what happened?"

His words reminded Mu Zhou of what had just happened. He instantly forgot to take back the handkerchief and said with lingering fear:

"I, I saw the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery and a woman deep in the Merlin..."

When she thought of the scene she saw, her face turned red instantly and she didn't dare to look Song Wenchao in the eye.

The woman was wearing the clothes of a maid in the Princess's mansion, so she must be the Princess's person.

The son of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery was so reckless and presumptuous in the Princess's residence. If the Princess found out, she would definitely not let it go.

That's why the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery ordered his servants to catch up.

The crisis was temporarily resolved, and Mu Zhou wanted to leave, but Song Wenchao stopped her.
