With Xing'er's guarantee, Mu Ru Yue nodded her head in satisfaction. She then looked at the guard and asked, "Who is the one that came to pick you up?"

The guard was a bit hesitant, as if he didn't dare to say anything. When Mu Ru Yue saw him act this way, she made a bad guess. "You aren't going to tell this wangfei that the person who came was Prime Minister Zuo, right?"

The guard nodded the moment Mu Ru Yue finished speaking.

Mu Ru Yue felt that it was inconceivable. Was this old fogey insane? At this time, he had probably just left the imperial court. He came straight here? How much did he want to block her? Thinking this way, Mu Ru Yue frowned and said coldly, "Since the Prime Minister has come to invite people to the main hall, then this wangfei would like to ask him for me. Why?"

"Yes." The guards didn't dare to be negligent. They knew that Mu Ru Yue valued Xing'er, so they didn't want to delay Mu Ru Yue's mission any longer. After she left, the steward, who hadn't left yet, couldn't help but ask, "Princess, would you like this old servant to invite the prince back?"

"No need! Since he wants to find fault with me, then after this time he will find the king and the next time he will also come to disgust me. Let's settle this matter today, he had better pray that I do not catch him red-handed in the future, or else I will take his life! " Mu Ru Yue's gaze was cold.

He said to Xing'er, "Xing'er, let's go to the main hall to wait for that old fogey."

"Miss, can this servant not go?" Xing'er tremblingly said. When she was at the Prime Minister's Estate, she had been afraid of the old master. Now that she had the agreement, she could only wish she could hide far away.

Mu Ru Yue looked at her timid appearance and smiled. "If you want to, that's fine too. But who is the person that you promised me earlier?"

Hearing this, Xing`er's heart skipped a beat as she remembered the incident at the Wushuang Palace. Out of fear, she ran back alone and left her young lady alone.

He had clearly decided not to run away anymore, but now he actually wanted to hide behind the Miss.

"This servant will follow Miss." Xing'er gritted her teeth, suppressing the fear in her heart as she spoke. Hearing this answer, Mu Ru Yue smiled in satisfaction. "That's more like it."

He was a bit worried when he saw the two of them leave, so he decided to follow them. Although he still didn't have a good impression of Mu Ru Yue, it was still the Seventh Marquis' Mansion's honor for her. If she was bullied, then it meant the entire Seventh Marquis' Mansion was a joke!

This was something he didn't want to see.

Mu Ru Yue, the housekeeper, and Xing'er had arrived at the main hall first. When the three of them arrived, Mu Ru Yue naturally sat at the head of the table. Xing'er obediently stood by Mu Ru Yue's side. The butler stood before Mu Ru Yue respectfully, but also with a bit of character.

This person was able to be the steward of the Seventh Prince's Estate for so long, so he naturally wasn't some trash. The rules that he should have had were even better than those of others.

In next to no time, the guard brought Prime Minister Zuo in. It had only been a short period of time, but the Prime Minister's face seemed to have gained a lot of wrinkles, and his hair had also turned a lot whiter, as if he had aged quite a bit.

Seeing her enemy in such a sorry state, Mu Ru Yue's mood instantly improved by half.

After being sent to the main hall and seeing that Mu Ru Yue remained silent, Prime Minister Mu Rong gritted his teeth and suppressed the bit of humiliation he felt. He respectfully bowed and said, "This official pays his respects to Princess Mu Ru Yue."

"Prime Minister, get up. Although there is no longer any relationship between the two of us, there is no need for empty courtesies." Mu Ru Yue and the others knelt down before replying calmly. Prime Minister Murong nearly died of anger when he heard this.

No need to bow? Why didn't you say so earlier! Only after the salutation did he say who would believe him!

It didn't matter if Prime Minister Zuo believed it or not, Mu Ru Yue still maintained her aloof demeanor. She looked at Prime Minister Zuo and felt a lot more comfortable in her heart. This feeling belonged to the original owner. He had been bullied by the Mu Rong family all year round, and now he felt slightly relieved.

The negative emotions that had kept Mu Ru Yue from going crazy had slightly calmed down.

Ever since she came to this body, she had never felt completely at ease because of the original owner's wrongdoings. He could even often feel grief, indignation, and despair. This was the reason why she wanted to avenge the original owner no matter what.

The only way for this body to truly belong to him was to take revenge. There wasn't a shred of unwillingness, right?

With this thought in mind, Mu Ru Yue's mind became increasingly resolute.

Looking at his eldest daughter, who was usually stepped on by others, acting so arrogantly, Prime Minister Murong felt an indescribable rage in his heart. However, when he thought of the reason he had come here today, he suppressed it and said, "Esteemed wangfei, this official has come today to ask for your convenience."

"Oh? "What is it?" Mu Ru Yue raised her brows.

"The maid Xing`er that was with Princess Hua-Yang was married off to the Prime Minister's Palace. However, since Princess Xiyue has broken off her relationship with the Prime Minister's Estate, she should naturally return it. "My Prime Minister's Estate has once again signed a contract with her parents. Now, Xing'er belongs to the Prime Minister's Estate."

As Prime Minister Murong finished speaking, Xing'er's face turned completely pale. So it was like that.

"Prime Minister, are you trying to steal this concubine's man?" Mu Ru Yue raised her brows.

"This official only legally wants to take back the items that belong to the Prime Minister's Estate." Prime Minister Murong said. When Mu Ru Yue heard that, she smiled. "What a great law. Since that's the case, I have a question to ask the Prime Minister."

"Princess, please ask." Prime Minister Murong said, but he sneered in his heart. These days, the Mu Rong family had been ruined by Mu Rong Yue. Even if they broke up with the Seventh Marquis family, he would make Mu Ru Yue feel disgusted!

Didn't she value this young maid more than Murong Yue? Then, he would make this young maid's life miserable.

"I wonder what price Prime Minister is willing to pay to hand her over?" Mu Ru Yue caressed her chin and asked casually. Xing'er thought that Mu Ru Yue was going to be a rascal, but she didn't expect Mu Ru Yue to suddenly ask such a question.

Not to mention Mu Ru Yue, even the butler and Prime Minister Mu Rong were stunned. Mu Ru Yue's personality was tyrannical, a topic that everyone in the capital had been discussing recently. Since she was married to the Seventh Marquis, she had been completely lawless.

But he didn't expect that such a person would ask such a question.

Prime Minister Murong had thought of a lot of things before he had arrived, but this was something he truly didn't think of. Therefore, after feeling embarrassed for a moment, he said, "Princess doesn't know that I'm taking this girl back to marry a distant relative."

"You don't need to talk about this. Why did you take him away and play tricks like I didn't know? "Today, I will ask you only one question. How do you want to hand over the indenture contract?" At this moment, Mu Ru Yue couldn't be bothered to get involved with Prime Minister Murong anymore.

As long as she could take it out, she would give it to her, but … How did she eat it? How would she vomit it in the future?!

"Wangfei is such a quick talker, then this official won't beat around the bush." To be honest, if you had not gone too far, this official would not have resorted to such a tactic. Since it has already become like this, this official does not want anything else, as long as the wangfei has a quarter of the west region. "

Prime Minister Murong said with a huge mouth.
