One took off, he had already disappeared in the vast night, and Yu Ruyan's heart sank with a 'pop', and she knew that he was going to grab the knife himself.

She knows Mu Lingzhi's martial arts and methods, where is the knife his opponent, but she is afraid that it will not be long before he will be caught.

Before leaving, he had let the secret guard firmly guard the room, and Yu Ruyan was anxious, but he couldn't take a step out of the door and circle around the room like a trapped beast.

What to do?

If Mu Lingzhi is allowed to catch up with the knife, the two will definitely have a vicious fight. Both men are people she cherishes, and she doesn't want the one to be hurt!

If Mu Lingzhi grabbed the knife, then her hard-hidden identity would also be revealed to the world, he hated Princess Heshuo so much, she didn't dare to imagine what would happen to him after he knew all the truth and knew that he had deceived him like this?

The hourglass in the room made a small rustling sound, and for the first time, Yu Ruyan felt helpless, she watched the sky white, and the silk handkerchief in her hand was almost broken by her.

Fortunately, at this moment, Mu Lingzhi came back covered in frost dew, and Yu Ruyan saw him entering the courtyard through the crack in the window, and hurriedly jumped on the bed, pulled the quilt and covered his body, slowed down his breathing and pretended to be asleep.

The door opened, the footsteps stopped beside the bed, Yu Ruyan's heart was pounding, the clothes on her back were soaked with cold sweat, she pinched her palms under the quilt, and let the pain from her palms stimulate her calm.

"Don't pretend, Hongu knows you're not asleep." The cold voice sounded above his head without a trace of warmth, Mu Lingzhi coldly looked at someone who was pretending to be asleep on the bed, and said with a cold smile: "The assassin escaped, are you very happy?" ”

Yu Ruyan's whole body relaxed, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, she slowly opened her eyes, and looked at Mu Lingdao with clear and sincere eyes: "The slave knows that His Highness has doubts in his heart, and he also knows that His Highness doesn't believe what the slave and maid say, but what the slave and maid say is what she sees, and please let Your Highness know it!" ”

"And what are you worried about?" Mu Lingzhi looked at her fixedly, the candle flame danced in his eyes, with a burning heat, "Don't tell me, you're worried about this palace!" ”

Hearing this, Yu Ruyan smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "If I say yes, will Your Highness believe it?" ”

When she said this, the streamer's eyes were dim, and he suddenly remembered that when she confessed to herself in the military camp but was hung up on the school yard by herself, he suddenly felt a stagnation, and his sharp eyes softened inexplicably, and there was a trace of excitement shining faintly in it.

She hadn't slept all night, and when she climbed into the carriage, she looked at the thick carpet in the carriage, and if it weren't for the fear of damaging her bun that she had combed all morning, she would have rolled on the carpet and went to sleep.

The carriage staggered all the way to the East Palace, Yu Ruyan seemed to be sitting in a comfortable cradle, and the sleeping insects came more violently, she couldn't bear it, so she had to look at Mu Lingzhi pitifully, and begged: "Your Highness, can I borrow your arm to use it?" ”

He glanced at her angrily, moved to the side, stretched out his arm and pouted at her, "Hmm-"

She happily slammed up and stuck to his arm like a leper dog.

"Well, it's so comfortable, please ask Your Highness to raise your hands higher!"

The corners of Mu Lingzhi's mouth couldn't help twitching, and he was impatiently trying to withdraw his arm, but someone was already asleep, and his hands and feet hung on him like a monkey, and he couldn't shake it off.

Looking at her in her sleep, Mu Ling's heart swelled with deep questions: the prince didn't know her, why did he let her attend, in the middle, there seemed to be something he didn't know to be born.

And last night's assassin knew the terrain of the palace well, and he was about to be overtaken, but he escaped the pursuit by hiding in Tibet with his understanding of the terrain.

If the Assassin was really him, how could he be so familiar with his mansion?

And he believed he had read the look on her face correctly last night, and when he suddenly entered the room, she had a worried look on her face—was she worried about the assassin?

His eyes sank, and he couldn't help but look down at her in his sleep—

This woman seems to have countless secrets hidden in her body, like a snow lotus growing on a high mountain, and through layers of clouds and mist, she has not been able to see her true face clearly······

When he arrived at the East Palace, many exquisite carriages were parked at the door, and Mu Ziyue got down from the carriage of the Xiangfu, just in time to see the carriage of the palace coming, and hurriedly greeted him happily.

When the copper coin opened the curtain, Yu Ruyan hadn't woken up yet, Mu Lingzhi couldn't help but raise her empty hand and pat her face to wake her up, all of this was in the eyes of Mu Ziyue, who happened to come over, it was completely Yu Ruyan's dead face on Mu Lingzhi's body, pestering him, and she was angry in her heart.

Slut, it's really seducing people anytime and anywhere, and Tian is shameless!

After being slapped a few times by Mu Lingzhi, Yu Ruyan woke up with a frown, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Mu Ziyue standing in front of the carriage, and she couldn't help but feel depressed, it seems that it is impossible to survive the banquet quietly today, and she has to accompany this Miss Mu to act.

Throwing off Yu Ruyan, Mu Ling got out of the car and walked in with Mu Ziyue. She remembered his previous instructions, and although she didn't want to be an eyesore in front of the two of them, she had to follow closely behind Mu Lingzhi step by step.

The East Palace is very large, compared with the exquisite and elegant of the Three Princes' Mansion, it is more luxurious, and Yu Ruyan walked with everyone all the way, and she was dazzled.

In the crisp autumn weather, the chrysanthemums in the East Palace bloom just right, and all kinds of famous products are gorgeous and colorful, which makes people dizzy. So the prince simply set up the banquet in the chrysanthemum garden in the garden, and this suggestion was immediately unanimously approved by everyone.

Mu Ling was surrounded by the ministers and princes when he entered, and Yu Ruyan just wanted to hide in a quiet place to rest alone, but he didn't expect him to turn around and instruct: "Follow Xiaoyue well, don't walk around." ”

Yu Ruyan was about to open her mouth to refuse, but she didn't want Mu Ziyue to smile coquettishly, took Yu Ruyan's hand and said, "You can rest assured, I will take good care of Miss Xiaoqing." ”

Hearing this, her whole body was numb, since she knew Mu Ziyue's true face, every time she approached her, she couldn't suppress the hair in her heart, this woman seems to be dignified and generous, but in fact she is crazy and bold, she can do anything, otherwise she will not be sold to Qin Xianglou without saying a word.

Sure enough, as soon as she left Mu Lingzhi's sight, Mu Ziyue immediately changed to another description, her hand was still tightly holding Yu Ruyan, looking intimate, but her eyes were not warm at all.

She pulled Yu Ruyan to the female family, and when the others saw Miss Mu coming, they all stepped forward to say hello.

Today's Mu Ziyue is wearing a concubine-colored skirt of looking at the fairy, combing her hair to the moon bun, wearing a red gold peony hairpin, and the pearl tassels falling from the hairpin are shining brightly, lining her skin like condensation, like a fairy descending to earth!

And Yu Ruyan, who was standing beside her, never liked bright colors, she was wearing a lotus-colored flower skirt, the plain color with elegant makeup was also beautiful and lovely, but she was compared to Mu Ziyue's gorgeous clothes, and she was suddenly dimmed, but her face was more stunning than Mu Ziyue, especially a pair of sparkling streamer eyes shining, which made it difficult for people to ignore her!

It was the first time for everyone to see a beauty who could compare Mu Ziyue in appearance, and they couldn't help but be curious about her identity. The daughter of the Qin Shangshu family couldn't help but take the lead in asking, "Sister Mu, who is this beauty beside you?" Why haven't you seen it before? ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone echoed, but Mu Ziyue did not answer everyone's questions, but was silent with embarrassment, her expression was full of awkwardness and embarrassment, and a pair of bright apricot eyes dodged, as if it was difficult to speak.

Her description and behavior really attracted everyone's curiosity, and the ladies in the garden all gathered around, looking at Yu Ruyan from beginning to end one by one, and whispering endlessly.

"If this girl can participate in the prince's birthday banquet, she must be from an extraordinary background, but why haven't we seen her in our noble girl circle before?"

"She looks really stunning, and she actually compares Miss Mu to her, it seems that they have a great relationship, what is the origin of this girl?"

“······”

Everyone's discussion penetrated into the ears of the two of them word for word. For everyone's comments, Yu Ruyan didn't pay attention to it at all, standing in the middle of the garden with a calm expression, letting everyone look at it, there was no servility that a slave should have, in everyone's eyes, she was completely an outstanding lady.

And when Mu Ziyue heard these discussions, the sarcasm in Ying Yingxing's eyes flashed quietly, but it did not escape Yu Ruyan's eyes.

She looked at the look in her eyes, and wondered, could this be the reason why she suddenly appeared in the prince's guest list - just because Mu Ziyue wanted to humiliate herself and make herself embarrassed among the high-class celebrities in the Eastern Capital, and then let herself retreat and stop pestering Mu Lingzhi?

smiled coldly in her heart, if this is the case, this Miss Mu is really innocent and superficial cute!

She bent down and saluted everyone: "Slave Xiaoqing has seen all the young ladies!" ”

"What? Are you just a slave? Miss Qin exclaimed in surprise when she heard this, and the others looked at her in disbelief.

"Miss Hui, the slave maid is the cleaning girl in the house of the Third Highness, and she is responsible for the sprinkling and cleaning errand of the South Garden!" She didn't care about hooking her lips and smiling, looking at the expressions of the ladies in front of her who changed color when she heard the words, she suddenly felt that today's banquet was not as boring as she imagined!

"Oh, how could the prince let such a person come to the banquet? Isn't it true that such people are sitting with us and lowering our status! ”

"Look at her foxy appearance, maybe it will be with... There is a private affair! ”

"It's really a cheap embryo, looking at her, she is not a good person, and she dares to appear on such an occasion without knowing her identity.!"

After learning about Yu Ruyan's origin, the famous ladies of the Eastern Capital didn't care that Yu Ruyan and them were just meeting for the first time, and they didn't have any grudges with them, and they seemed to have a great hatred for her, and they counted her down in front of her without any scruples.

Changed to an ordinary maid and maid, I am afraid that she is ashamed of herself at this time, and she can't wait to find a hole to escape, but Yu Ruyan doesn't feel it at all, she always has a light smile on her beautiful face, and her expression is like a spring breeze, and she simply treats the people who scold her in front of her as a monkey show.

This kind of public humiliation, she has experienced it since she was a child, and for her, the damage value is equal to zero!

Seeing her so calm and composed, Mu Ziyue's two curved long eyebrows couldn't help frowning, and her heart sank, this cheap maid's scheming was really deep, and she underestimated her too much.

At this moment, Yu Wan, the crown prince's concubine, came over, and she heard that His Royal Highness had brought a woman into the mansion, so she came over to take a look.

Yu Wan and An Lirong are cousins, and the two have a good relationship, and she has heard of An Lirong's recent encounters. After her cousin was punished and grounded, she wanted to see who would accompany Mu Lingzhi to the banquet?

After seeing Yu Ruyan, she was slightly stunned-

The woman in front of her is gorgeous, her body looks thin and thin, but her momentum is not lost to anyone present, when she heard her own introduction that she was the cleaning girl in the Three Princes' Mansion, her eyes turned, and she suddenly understood who she was!

Regarding Mu Lingzhi taking a military prostitute back to the house and being favored, An Lirong had already cried to Yu Wan several times, at that time, Yu Wan had been laughing at her for being cautious, she couldn't even tolerate a little military prostitute, and advised her to be generous, rather than having time to eat the vinegar of a little military prostitute, it was better to find a way to get rid of the child in Gu Qing'er's belly!

But after seeing her with her own eyes today, Yu Wan finally understood An Lirong's worries-

The woman in front of her is too beautiful, and there is an irresistible charm on her body, not to mention a man, even if she is a woman, she can't take her eyes off her.

The most important thing is that looking at the description that she just dealt with everyone freely, neither humble nor arrogant, she knew that what An Lirong said was true, this woman was extraordinary, not comparable to ordinary people from humble backgrounds!

But she is not An Lirong, she wants to take this opportunity to meet the new favorite of His Royal Highness for a while, to see how capable she is!

"You're Xiaoqing?" Yu Wan took two steps forward and said with a smile: "I heard Sister An say that His Royal Highness brought back a beautiful military prostitute from the military prostitute camp, and he was also very gracious. When I saw it today, it was really a captivating posture, beautiful and beautiful, no wonder His Royal Highness was obsessed with you! ”

Yu Wan's gentle words exploded in the crowd in an instant, and after hearing the word 'military prostitute', all the nobles stepped back in unison, without exception, they did not pick up a handkerchief to cover their noses and show disgust.

Originally, it was unacceptable for Yu Ruyan to attend the same occasion with them as a little slave maid, but what they didn't expect was that this slave maid had an even more disgusting identity, and she was actually a military prostitute with ten thousand pillows!

"Ahh The daughter of General Wang's family couldn't help but spit on Yu Ruyan, with a disgusted expression: "It's really something more disgusting than a fly, and I don't look at what kind of occasion this is, and I dare to run out and be embarrassed, it's really disappointing!" ”

Suddenly, the vicious gossip poured out towards Yu Ruyan, Mu Ziyue watched her being besieged and scolded by everyone, and she was overjoyed, and the evil breath that she was holding in her heart finally came out.

Seeing that everyone was almost scolded, Miss Mu spoke up, she stood in front of Yu Ruyan, and said sadly: "Don't scold her, everyone, although she has a bad background, but she is also a member of the Third Highness, please say a few words for His Highness's sake, otherwise it will be sad for His Highness to hear!" ”

Her expression is sincere and sincere, her tone is delicate and moving, she is simply an unstained pure lotus, beautiful and moving, white and flawless!

Miss Qin has always had a good relationship with Mu Ziyue, she pulled Mu Ziyue away, and said bitterly: "How can my sister be with such a pickled and dirty person and still speak for her?" After speaking, she turned to Yu Wan on the side angrily and said: "Niangniang, today is the birthday of His Royal Highness the Prince, how can you let such a despicable person get in, and ask Niangniang to drive her out!" ”

As soon as this proposal came out, everyone immediately agreed, and Miss Wang couldn't bear to shout at Yu Ruyan: "Cheap thing, don't get out of here quickly!" ”

Yu Wan showed a look of embarrassment on her face. Although the identity of the woman in front of her is indeed too unbearable, but the person was invited by the prince, how dare she drive her away without permission?

In an inconspicuous place not far from them, a white-clothed figure sat quietly drinking tea, he saw everything that was born here, and at this time, seeing that Yu Ruyan, who was surrounded by people, was about to be driven away, he suddenly got up, but was pulled by the entourage on the side.

Qingcha pulled Yue Yu, who was not depressed, and said in a low voice: "Childe, this is a matter in the prince's mansion, you still don't interfere!" ”

Qingcha inexplicably doesn't like Yu Ruyan very much, he always feels that every time he meets her, the son will not have a good life.

On the other side of the garden, when the prince accompanied Mu Lingzhi over, he happened to hear all kinds of insults and blows from everyone to Yu Ruyan, Mu Lingzhi put his hands behind him and couldn't help clenching into fists, but there was no expression on his face.

The prince glanced back at him with a calm face, his eyes flashed, and he quipped: "Presumably this beauty is the military prostitute brought back by the emperor's brother?" It turned out to be such a wonderful person, no wonder the royal brother couldn't put it down! ”

The prince who saw Yu Ruyan for the first time was secretly amazed in his heart, such a stunning color, even he was amazed by countless Fang Xunfang, and he couldn't help but be secretly annoyed that good things were taken by his younger brother!

On his face, he smiled easily, and when he saw Mu Lingzhi's face sank, the prince said again: "It's just that such a beauty is afraid that she will be kicked out of the house, and the royal brother doesn't come forward to solve the siege for the beauty?" ”

Hearing this, Mu Lingzhi smiled faintly, his eyes were deep, but his face was silent: "She is a guest invited by the imperial brother, how dare the idlers drive her out of the house at will?" ”

The prince's eyes sank, and he smiled coldly: "The imperial brother is really calm, why don't we continue to look down and see if she will be driven away?" ”

This was exactly what Mu Lingzhi wanted, and he also wanted to see how she would deal with such a situation.

In the midst of the insults, Yu Ruyan suddenly walked generously to the table and sat down, poured herself a cup of tea, took a sip leisurely, and said slowly: "If Niangniang is willing to let the slave and maid leave now, the slave and maid will really be grateful!" ”

That indifferent look seems to say, you don't look down on me, and I may not look down on you!

Seeing her arrogant attitude, the nobles were even more impatient, and rushed to Yu Wan one by one and said: "Niangniang, drive her away, don't pollute everyone's eyes here!" ”

"Yes, Niangniang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must not know that she is such an unbearable thing to let her enter the mansion, and now she must not be allowed to be embarrassed here."

“······”

Seeing that Yu Wan had been embarrassed and didn't dare to let herself go, Yu Ruyan didn't bother to pay attention to the rabble in front of her, she casually picked off a chrysanthemum at hand and put it in the teacup, soaked in hot water and leisurely took a sip, and sighed with satisfaction: "Chrysanthemum fragrant tea is refreshing and pleasant, Shengjin goes to the fire, it's really good, I see that all the nobles are a little angry, it is better to let the slave maid make a cup for everyone!" ”

A group of noble girls around her were completely dumbfounded by her 'brazenness', and they were all stunned!

Seeing this, the prince couldn't help but stroke his hands and praised: "What a different beauty, interesting and interesting!" ”

There was a flash of light in Mu Lingzhi's deep phoenix eyes—

This woman seems to never play cards according to the rules, which is really surprising!

There was a hint of appreciation in his eyes, such a character was similar to his temperament, he liked it!

However, seeing her calmly and leisurely treating everyone as nothing, it made him suspicious - is she really just an ordinary maidservant? The average maid is so arrogant and bold as her!

She's really not afraid at all?

At this moment, there was a burst of exclamations in the venue, but Miss Wang finally couldn't bear it, stepped forward and snatched the cup in Yu Ruyan's hand, and splashed the remaining tea on her face-

The field was quiet in an instant, and everyone's eyes stopped on Yu Ruyan, who was embarrassed by tea, and Mu Ziyueyingxing's eyes lit up excitedly in the crowd - it was so relieving!

Mu Lingzhi's whole body was shocked, and he was about to step forward, when suddenly a handsome boy in white clothes walked out of the oblique stab, only to see him walk straight to Yu Ruyan, take out a snow-white handkerchief to help her carefully wipe the tea stains on her face, and didn't look at the female relatives behind her, and said coldly: "Who is more noble than the prince's guests?" You are all famous ladies from extraordinary backgrounds, so why do you want to be aggressive and do such embarrassing things? ”

After saying this, he didn't pay attention to everyone anymore, but just seriously helped Yu Ruyan wipe the tea, his expression was focused, as if he was caring for a priceless treasure.

The ladies were shocked, and couldn't help but look at the boy in white carefully, only to see that he was handsome, handsome, extraordinary, elegant and elegant, and he was actually a handsome boy with a face.

Everyone couldn't help but turn their eyes from Yu Ruyan's body to Yue Yu, and asked each other who this suddenly appeared son?

Others don't know him, but Yu Wan knows, she remembered the prince's instructions, and hurriedly stepped forward and instructed the maid in the house: "Why are you still stunned, quickly help the girl to go to the guest room to rest and freshen up." Yue Gongzi, it's really disrespectful, it makes you laugh! After that, he glanced at Miss Wang, blaming her for being too impulsive and causing trouble.

Until she helped her wipe the last tea stain, Yue Yu said slowly: "If Niangniang doesn't mind, the grass people will leave with Miss Xiaoqing now, so as not to disturb the nobles' Yaxing!" ”

His words were slow, but the word 'grass people' was bitten very hard, as if he wanted to deliberately show his identity and draw a clear line with everyone present.

Since the emergence of Yue Yu, Yu Ruyan has been in a state of ignorance.

She looked at the man in front of her a little sluggishly, she hadn't seen him for many days, he was still the same as when she first saw him, dressed in a snow-white placket, with clear eyebrows and an elegant expression, but his face seemed to be paler than the last time she saw him.

She didn't expect to see Yue Yu in the prince's mansion, let alone meet him in such an embarrassing time!

It seems that every time I meet him, it is the most unbearable time.

She put away the spikes all over her body like a hedgehog, her expression relaxed, she looked at Yue Yu's clear eyes in a daze, and snorted: "Childe, why are you here?" ”

Yue Yu smiled lightly, Qingjun's face was calm and waveless, he put away the handkerchief and smiled: "You don't care why I'm here, I just ask if you still want to stay here?" ”

Without thinking about it, she shook her head vigorously, her eyes coldly swept around the lively women, and said loudly: "I can't come and go as I want, and please have great mercy to save the slave and maid from fire and water." ”

Her exaggerated words made the nobles present blush, but Yue Yu was amused by her and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

His smile was warmer and more dazzling than the sun in the sky, and everyone present was in a daze, and Miss Wang, who had always been arrogant, looked at him fascinated, and her face turned red rarely.

Hearing Yu Ruyan's answer so affirmative, Yue Yu smiled knowingly, pulled her up and was about to go out. Qingcha, who was still stunned on the side, saw it, and was a little embarrassed: "Son, the prince's birthday banquet has not started yet, so I······'m afraid to leave at this time."

"Yes, Gongzi is a distinguished guest invited by the prince, how can he just leave? How does this make this palace explain to the prince? Yu Wan also reacted and hurriedly spoke up.

Although this Yue Gongzi was from a humble background, the wealth in his hands was exactly what the prince needed to seek great things, otherwise, how could a businessman like him become a guest of honor in the prince's mansion?

Yue Yu smiled disappreciatively: "VIP? Niangniang praised it falsely, the grass people just heard the accusations of the young ladies against Miss Xiaoqing, and the grass people were as humble as her, so the grass people were self-aware, and they still resigned automatically, so as not to embarrass the mother! ”

As soon as these words came out, the ladies present couldn't help but blush, although it was not enough to say that Yu Ruyan was indeed from a low background, but they openly cooperated to bully people, and they also did something unladylike, and they were afraid that they would be ridiculed if they spread it.

Yu Wan made a look at Miss Wang to apologize to Xiaoqing, but how could she be willing? He snorted and tilted his head to the side. After all, she was also a distinguished guest in the house, and Yu Wan couldn't force her to apologize, and everyone froze on the spot for a while, and the atmosphere became awkward.

Mu Ziyue has been watching coldly from the sidelines, looking at Yue Yu who suddenly appeared to relieve Yu Ruyan, and even greater hatred surged in her heart inexplicably, why are these men all on the side of this slut one by one, surrounding her everywhere?

The prince, who had been standing and watching the excitement, couldn't sit still anymore at this time, and Mu Lingzhi couldn't control himself from rushing out when Yue Yu appeared, but the prince suppressed the anger in his heart and kept quiet, and when he saw the two holding hands together, and kept saying that they wanted to leave together, he couldn't hold back anymore.

The two strode to the middle of the women, and the other guests were also alarmed by the noise.

Without waiting for the prince to speak, Mu Lingzhi's cold eyes looked coldly at the hands held by the two of them, and his voice was as cold as ice: "Your Excellency is holding my maidservant, where are you going to take her?" ”
