The Legend of the Resourceful Princess

"Esteemed wangfei, we were too busy earlier, how could we have the time to spread the news? Furthermore … We're all off course, and no one would have thought we'd be walking all day and then come back south. Thus, the estate should not know about this. "

Yun'er calmly analyzed.

Mu Ru Yue naturally felt that Yun'er's words made sense, so the scene before her eyes didn't make sense. The news of her return never spread. Why were these two here? Before Mu Ru Yue could get off the carriage, a woman's voice was heard from outside. "Is that the one that's holding big sister Wang Consort?"

Carry it?

Mu Ru Yue was stunned by his words. She was about to leave when she heard the girl ask again, "Do you need me to find someone to bring elder sister out?"

Carry it out?

Mu Ru Yue finally understood what was going on. This brat actually thought that something would happen to her? Thinking about that, Mu Ru Yue's expression darkened. She walked out with a cold smile and said, "This wangfei is indeed in the carriage, but it's unnecessary to carry me. Little sister, what you were worried about did not happen. "

As Mu Ru Yue's voice rang out, Lady Wan's expression darkened. Then she smiled and said, "It's good that sister is safe. I've been really worried about sister these days."

Worry? Are you worried that she isn't dead yet? Mu Ru Yue secretly cursed in her heart, but didn't reveal it on the surface. She smiled innocently. "Thank you for your concern, little sister."

"What is elder sister saying?" You and I are sisters, and since I live in the palace, I naturally have to be concerned about you. Ah … "Who is this child?" Lady Wan's gaze landed on Mu Ru Yue.

He was surprised to see a child around the age of eight or nine. At the same time, a trace of gloom flashed across his eyes.

"I brought this back from Peony City. He was fated to meet me, so I decided to stay."

"Elder sister, since the age of seven, there has been a difference between men and women. I'm afraid you can't be justified by acting like this, right? "If an outsider uses this matter to gossip …" Lady Wan's playful gaze fell on the two of them. The look in her eyes was really infuriating.

"As long as you don't say anything, I think nothing will happen. This child, I will take him in as my younger brother. When the prince returns, I will speak to him. " With that, Mu Ru Yue got off the carriage and went around Lady Wan to the housekeeper.

When the butler saw that Mu Ru Yue was safe and sound, he became extremely excited. He was finally able to heave a sigh of relief after being on tenterhooks for the past few days. Only the heavens knew what had happened these past few days that caused him to dream about what had happened to the princess. Afterwards, he had been angrily slaughtered by the prince.

Every time he woke up from a nightmare. Now that he saw that the princess was fine, his mind was saved. Although he said that he brought back a strange child, but … In any case, this child was still too old to be called the illegitimate child of a wangfei or anything like that. That's good.

Thinking like this, the butler paid his respects to Murong Yue and said, "Princess, it is a joyous occasion for the family that you have returned safely. Princess, please go back and wash your face and rest.

"Yes." Mu Ru Yue nodded her head and said, "In the time that this wangfei is not here, I'll have to trouble you with the matters of the Duke's Mansion."

"No …" That's the old servant's job. " As the butler spoke, he welcomed Mu Ru Yue into the manor. Yun'er followed closely behind him into the manor. Lady Wan'er's gaze fell upon the carriage with a heavy gaze. It even seemed to have some meaning of investigation.

However, the people in the carriage did not appear for a long time.

Feng Qing's cold voice came from within the carriage after the carriage had left. "Go directly to the Mu Yun Tower. Do not return to the residence of the crown prince." Feng Qing instructed.

"Yes, Your Highness."

At this moment, the person driving the car was one of Feng Qing's secret guards. Feng Qing only allowed him to appear because no one was driving on the way back. It could be said that during this period of time, Feng Qing's secret guards had been overused by him.

The horse carriage headed towards Mu Yun Tower. The group of black-clothed men following behind the horse carriage also headed there.

As the saying goes, a golden nest is not as good as a dog's den. After Mu Ru Yue returned to the manor, she relaxed. She didn't even enter her own room, but lay down on a rocking chair within her own courtyard.

Seeing Mu Ru Yue's reaction, the butler replied respectfully, "Royal Concubine, after you leave, your courtyard and this old servant will personally clean it on time. There definitely won't be any problems. It's still early, would you like to have breakfast first?

Do you want to wash up? This old servant ordered for hot water to be prepared for you? "

At this moment, the housekeeper was extremely enthusiastic.

Mu Ru Yue looked at the butler. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry. However, there hasn't been any problems with the manor recently, right? "

"To reply to the wangfei, ever since you and your highness left the palace, the palace has always been very calm. If there's anything you need, it's probably Lady Wan who always invites the Eleventh Princess here." The relationship between the two seemed to be very good.

Right now, Princess Eleven was about to surpass Princess Yun Rou and become the most popular person by His Majesty's side. You still have to be careful. Ah, and … This old servant obtained a few letters here, all addressed to the wangfei. Because they are yours, this old servant does not dare to open them, so I have not dared to touch them for you. "

As he spoke, the butler handed the letter to Mu Ru Yue.

Mu Ru Yue nodded her head and asked again, "Has the prince sent any news back recently?"

"To reply Princess Consort, your highness has sent some news back. Everything is fine, as long as the matters in the south are settled, you will be able to return." "Everything in this house needs to be asked for your permission, this is the prince's order."

the butler said.

"I know." Mu Ru Yue asked.

The butler looked at Mu Ru Yue, hesitating to speak.

"Steward, please feel free to ask any questions you have. This wangfei has just come back, so I'm not familiar with the affairs of the capital." Mu Ru Yue directly said. After hearing what Mu Ru Yue said, the butler suddenly had enough courage. He looked at Mu Ru Yue and said, "Esteemed wangfei, there's a rumor circulating in the capital that you're the culprit behind the Peony City incident. I don't know …"

"Firstly, the matters of the Peony City have nothing to do with me. I am only there to take a look at the scenery. Furthermore, it was the mayor's invitation. The empress of the palace gave it to me. Secondly, this wasn't a bad thing. The people who did this were heroes in the eyes of the people in Peony City.

Butler, you did not see the appearance of those people trapped in the iron cage.

Mu Ru Yue frowned as she corrected him.

The butler was sweating profusely. He didn't expect Mu Ru Yue to be so serious in this matter. He then hastily asked, "This old servant didn't use the proper words. So, does the wangfei really have nothing to do with this matter?"

"Yes." Mu Ru Yue said seriously.

"That's good. Now that the prince is not in the imperial city, if you were to get involved in such a big matter and something were to happen to you, this old servant will be guilty of a great crime. However … He really did not expect that the matters of the City Lord's Mansion would be exposed.

For hundreds of years, Peony City has been very peaceful. "

The butler looked puzzled.

Mu Ru Yue coughed and replied, "It can only mean that their retribution is here. In the past few hundred years, no one knew how much wealth this Peony City had accumulated or how many people it had caused to die. Right now, it's just right. "

"That's right, you didn't know that it was yesterday that this matter was spread into the palace. His Majesty was furious and immediately wanted to vent all the officials in Peony City on his behalf. Fortunately, the Third Prince spoke up for the city. Furthermore, the Peony City's people had requested for orders from the City Lord. Although the City Lord was also at fault, in the end … His heart was still good.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many refugees trusting him. He also said that Peony City wasn't suitable for changing city lords at the moment. Otherwise, it would only cause more chaos in the city. In addition to that, there was a series of guarantees to keep the position of the City Lord of Peony City. "

The butler sighed.

Third Marquis?

Mu Ru Yue's eyes lit up. She finally understood the identity of the owner of the Peony City.

Perhaps the Third Marquis who had protected the Peony City was one of them?

"Then does His Majesty have any idea what to do with Peony City?" Mu Ru Yue asked.

"This... "There's no news about it, but it's still said that we'll have to wait for His Highness to return. In the end, His Majesty still trusts His Highness the Crown Prince the most." The butler sighed. When Mu Ru Yue heard that, she smiled. "After this matter, I'm afraid that there won't be anyone that can compare to His Highness the Crown Prince, right?"
