Quick Wear: The soft cannon fodder turns into a heartthrob and seduce

Chapter 218: The Frail and Delicate Cousin (17)

Both the Prince of Qi's Mansion and the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion knew that the former Marquis of Zhongyong's son was unable to be humane because of Song Yurou's medicine, and now he has lost his position as the prince.

Even if the Prince of Qi's Mansion was favored by the emperor, they could not say anything more. They would just marry Song Yurou to him and consider it as a way to resolve the matter. There would be no more grudges in the future.

She looked at the Second Madam with a warning: "It's time for your two sons to come back."

The old lady refers to the second wife’s two illegitimate sons, who had been guarding the border on the front line.

The second lady's face changed instantly when she heard this.

She disliked the two illegitimate sons very much, so she sent them away far away, but from what the old lady said, she actually threatened to bring them back.

She gritted her teeth and decided not to mention Song Yurou anymore.

*

Before leaving, the old lady suddenly called out to the eldest lady.

"Zhou'er is not young anymore, and her aunt is not a reliable person. You need to help her more and pay more attention to her."

The eldest lady's expression was a little subtle.

Mu Zhou has already been targeted by Song Wenchao, so how can she match him up with him randomly?

But now the matter has not been concluded yet, so she can't say anything. Facing the old lady, she can only nod and agree.

The child has grown up and she really can't take care of him at all.

On the way back to the yard, she happened to meet Mu Zhou.

The eldest lady couldn't help but look around again.

Mu Zhou's appearance is naturally good.

However, the eldest lady never expected that her son, who was a man of his word and had a cold and cruel temperament, would actually be someone who cared about appearance.

But no matter what, since she was the first person her son cared about, the eldest lady was still willing to treat her better.

What's more, Mu Zhou was originally a good boy.

She expressed her concern and asked someone to deliver some things to Mu Zhou's yard.

After the eldest lady left, Chuntao and Huimei were very happy:

"Miss, the eldest lady is so kind, the prince is also good to you, and the second lady is married. Finally, no one in the mansion dares to bully you from now on."

Mu Zhou looked at Chuntao Huimei's innocent smile, and caught a glimpse of a piece of clothing hidden beside the rockery. She curled the corners of her lips and said to Chuntao:

"When I get married and leave Prince Qi's mansion, Chuntao, Huimei, are you willing to leave with me?"

"My slave is willing!"

The two said in unison.

Mu Zhou has a gentle and kind personality and never loses his temper with them. He is the best master they have ever served.

"Well, if I get married in the future, I will ask the eldest lady to take you with me."

Mu Zhou was making the promise when he saw the two maids' expressions suddenly change.

She then turned around and saw Song Wenchao standing outside the pavilion, looking at her with a faint gaze.

Mu Zhou took a deep breath, looking a little embarrassed.

She didn't mind talking about getting married with her maid, but she felt a little embarrassed when the prince heard it.

Especially when she saw that Song Wenchao actually asked all the servants around to evacuate, including Chuntao Huimei, she suddenly felt a little flustered and couldn't help but take a few steps back to keep her distance.

Sensing her resistance, Song Wenchao stopped and did not force her any further.

But my chest felt uncontrollably stuffy.

He pursed his lips and remained silent for a while. The coldness on his face gradually dissipated, and he said:

"Are you going to a poetry reading tomorrow?"

"Yes."

Mu Zhou looked up at him, as if wondering how he knew all this.

Obviously, she just received the invitation.

Mu Zhou didn't know that the inquiring expression in her eyes at this moment looked particularly cute and playful in Song Wenchao's eyes, as if it hit his heart and made him lose his mind in an instant.

He cleared his throat, and the depression in his heart finally dissipated a little:

"I'll be with you tomorrow."

At this moment, Song Wenchao had lost all his temper.

Mu Zhou was timid by nature, and he knew it very well.

Since she has concerns and is afraid of him, he will take it step by step.

After all, he won't shy away from it.

Whether it is the servants or the masters in the mansion, they should all see it clearly.

He was determined to get Mu Zhou.

*

The poetry reading was held in the Lake Tower.

The Lake Tower is located in the center of Changshui Lake, the largest lake in the capital. If you want to go up to the tower, you need to take a boat.

Since Mu Zhou received praise and rewards from the emperor last time, his popularity has improved a lot, so he received an invitation to the poetry meeting.

When she took Chuntao Huimei out, she saw Song Wenchao waiting for her outside the door.

He was wearing a navy blue robe, with cloud patterns faintly visible on the fabric. He was calm and low-key, with an unconcealable dignity.

When he looked at Mu Zhou, there was a smile in his eyes.

Mu Zhou was dressed relatively simply today, even wearing a jade hairpin and a plain hairpin on his head.

After all, it is a poetry gathering, and wearing too much makeup will definitely attract attention.

After she got on the carriage, Song Wenchao also got on the horse.

*

Changshui Lake is not too remote and there are always people playing around. Today's poetry gathering is particularly lively.

Today, there are not only young masters from various families, but also many students who are going to Beijing to take the imperial examinations.

Anyone with knowledge will be invited.

After climbing up to the lake tower, Mu Zhou saw Luo Rong as expected.

He looked very excited.

Luo Rong hasn't seen Mu Zhou for a long time.

Before, because of Song Yurou’s matter, Prince Qi’s Mansion had been busy with her marriage and had no free time.

Later, when he sent a letter to visit the Prince of Qi's mansion as before, he was always rejected.

In the past, he could go there at any time, but now he is always rejected for various reasons.

He guessed that maybe his aunt was sad about Song Yurou's matter, so she was not in the mood to see him.

But in this way, he would have no chance to meet Mu Zhou.

Unexpectedly, he met the person he had been thinking about day and night here today.

Mu Zhou's outfit today is particularly cool, his eyes are like stars, his figure is slender, and he has a sense of aloofness and elegance.

But when he looked at Mu Zhou's hair, he didn't see the carved jade hairpin he had given him before.

Obviously, the jade hairpin perfectly matched her outfit today.

He was a man who could not keep secrets, and when he had doubts, he would ask.

Mu Zhou raised her hand to adjust her hair ornaments, and thinking of the hairpin she had pawned for two hundred taels, she couldn't help but curl her lips:

"That hairpin is valuable, but you don't have to wear it all the time."

Luo Rong felt a little distressed and immediately said, "Zhou'er, there's no need to be like this. I'll go to Linlang Pavilion to pick out a few more pieces another day. You can wear whatever you want."

Before Mu Zhou could speak, he heard a cold voice behind him:

"Master Luo, do you think the Prince Qi's Mansion is declining and can't even afford a jade hairpin?"

Song Wenchao came from the path and stood beside Mu Zhou. The look he gave Luo Rong was as cold as if it was poisoned.

Luo Rong was startled the moment he saw Song Wenchao, and shuddered even more after hearing his words:

"Your Highness has misunderstood me. How dare I have such thoughts?"

He just felt that Mu Zhou was not valued in the Prince Qi's Mansion, and the prosperity of the Prince Qi's Mansion had nothing to do with her.

But at the moment, he didn't dare to argue at all.

Song Wenchao's eyes were like sharp swords, filled with sinister intent. He withdrew his gaze from Luo Rong and looked at Mu Zhou, instantly softening his voice:

"Do you like jade hairpins? Let's have someone from Linlang Pavilion come to your house tomorrow so you can pick one out carefully."

Luo Rong's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately looked up at Song Wenchao.
