After leaving the county lord's mansion, An Ruqing originally wanted to go back alone, but she didn't expect to chase after the carriage after only a few steps.

Mo Nanchen personally hugged the person up: "At the banquet just now, I did get closer to Meiqing, I wasn't half-hearted, but she threatened me, I was afraid that she would investigate your identity, so I had to act on the spot." ”

"I know, she's threatening me too." An Ruqing smiled bitterly and told everything she had just done.

The two of them looked at each other, their faces were very heavy, and Meiqing was obviously suspicious now, and the next step was to start investigating.

An Ruqing said her plan: "I can't go back to the palace with you directly, the two of us must keep our distance, if my true identity is exposed, not only will I die, but you will too, I plan to buy a house and live with Xiaoying." ”

In this way, the two people kept their distance on the bright side, and their eyebrows couldn't notice anything unusual, so they shouldn't continue to pursue.

After all, she is pregnant now, and even if she has the heart, she doesn't have that much energy.

Mo Nanchen was reluctant to part with her, but he was helpless, and after thinking about it, he asked Minghui to buy a big mansion around the palace, claiming that it was a gift to the divine doctor.

He deliberately spread this matter to Meiqing's ears, Meiqing thought that his threat had worked, and he was very happy, and subconsciously reached out to touch his little belly, his time was running out, and he had to marry as soon as possible.

An Ruqing was busy moving, and went out to buy a lot of things with Xiaoying, and Minghui followed the whole process.

Soon, An Ruqing sensed that something was wrong, stared at the two of them, and pulled Xiao Ying aside.

"Xiaoying, you are now of marriageable age, if you have someone you like, you might as well tell me directly, if you are happy, then I will buy you a house and let the two of you move out to live."

Before the words fell, Xiao Ying shook her head vigorously, tears welling up in her eyes: "Miss forgive me, please don't drive the slave away, the slave just wants to serve by Miss's side, and doesn't want to leave you." ”

When she said this, she glanced at Minghui, and a trace of heartache flashed in her eyes.

I do have someone I like, but compared to that person, it is more important to think about it herself, she would rather not marry in this life, but also stay by Miss's side.

"I'm not driving you away, I'm just trying to fulfill you." An Ruqing smiled and raised her hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes: "Don't cry, after you two move out, you can come to see me often." ”

"But the slave wants to be by the side of the young lady all the time." Xiao Ying still shook her head.

Her life was saved by Miss, if she is gone, then who will serve Miss? Slaves and maids are easy to find, but it is difficult to keep loyalty, what if it is an undercover agent arranged by a bad person?

"What about Minghui? Don't you want him? An Ruqing couldn't cry or laugh for a while, and made a joke casually.

At the mention of Minghui, Xiao Ying was even more entangled, hesitated for a long time, shook her head with tears in her eyes, and wanted to stay by Miss's side even more.

An Ruqing didn't speak, and after she went home, she asked her to hide in the screen, and then called Minghui to have a showdown with him directly.

"Minghui, if you really like her, I will never stop you, if you just want to play with her, then don't blame me for being ruthless, if you want to marry her, the most basic thing is to be a couple for a lifetime, can you do it?"

"Back to the princess, my subordinates can!" Minghui knelt on the ground, word by word promise.

He really likes Xiaoying and wants to protect her for the rest of his life, how can he marry another woman and enter the door? There are too many women and a lot of trouble, so he doesn't want it.

An Ruqing nodded with satisfaction and continued to ask him: "Then if Xiaoying gets old and ugly in the future, will you still like her?" Think about it and think it clearly before you answer. ”

Minghui was silent for a moment, Xiao Ying behind the screen waited for a long time, and the tears flowed down again, should he just not want himself?

At this moment, Minghui spoke: "Back to the princess, everyone will get old one day, if Xiaoying is old, then I will also be old, and when the time comes, the two of us will be the same ugly, what qualifications do we have to dislike it?" I know that the princess is afraid that I will fail her, and if the two of us get married, I am willing to give her all my property for safekeeping. ”

He has been by the prince's side for so many years, and he has done his best and received a lot of rewards, and these silver are enough for the two of them to live the rest of their lives without worry.

An Ruqing was very satisfied with his answer, and called Xiao Ying out directly.

"Why are you here?" When Minghui saw Xiao Ying, his face immediately turned red, and he realized that the princess was testing them just now.

Xiao Ying shook her head, and before she could speak, tears flowed out first.

How fortunate I am, obviously a slave and maid, but I can have such a good master, and I met such a good man, with them, I am really happy.

"Since you Lang is affectionate, and the concubine is interested, I will find someone to calculate a good day when I go back, and hold a marriage for the two of you, Minghui, Xiaoying is the person next to me, if you are sorry for her in the future, I have to make the decision for her!" An Ruqing said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

She originally thought that if Xiaoying didn't meet her lover, she would protect her for the rest of her life without worries, and if she did, then she would let her pursue happiness, no matter what, she would never let people hurt her.

Minghui nodded vigorously, and when he went back that night, he counted his property and planned to prepare a dowry.

An Ruqing was not idle, brought her jewelry box and selected a lot of them to give to Xiaoying.

"Miss, this can't be helped, these things are yours, the slave maid has a low status, and being able to marry someone is already a grace of Miss, where do you dare to ask for these things?" Xiao Ying kept waving her hands.

The more she refused, the more An Ruqing wanted to give, so she took her hand directly and put the jewelry inside.

"Women must have a dowry when they marry, you follow me, this dowry will naturally have to be prepared for you, you can't let you marry empty-handed, in addition to these jewelry, I will give you some more silver, and you can use it in your life in the future."

Xiao Ying looked at the jewelry in her hand, tears of excitement, knelt on the ground, and kept wiping her tears.

Even if she is married, she will always follow Miss and serve Miss around.

While the two were talking, the maid walked in and reported, saying that the third prince was knocking on the door outside.

An Ruqing's face changed instantly, this hypocrite really saw the stitches: "No, don't care, just let him knock on the door, if he is impatient, he will naturally go back." ”

The maid took the order to retreat, and really didn't pay attention to the third prince, and the knock on the door outside rang for an hour, and finally quieted down.
