Chapter 622 Dare to scheme against me?
Mu Qingyuan originally wanted to have dinner with Mu Xinyao, but seeing her expression, she didn't want him to stay there any longer. Instead, she kept reminding him to come and rescue her.
Mu Qingyuan felt extremely distressed.
Even if he had the ability to rescue her, where could he possibly place Mu Xinyao?
For a crime as serious as hers to survive, it was already a stroke of luck that the Prince of Chang Le granted her life. And this grace was only given because of the Mu family.
Now that her older sister has settled her here, what more could she possibly want?
She actually kept saying she wanted to kill her older sister and mother. How could she be so cruel?
After leaving here, Mu Qingyuan felt a little lost and didn't know where to go.
The guards weren't in a hurry; they just followed behind him, because the princess had instructed them to let him have his way.
Yanzhou, Chang Le Prince's Mansion.
Rongyue watched as her young mistress held the child, looking quite relaxed.
"Miss, aren't you worried that the Second Young Master might be instigated by you again? What if he helps you escape from there?"
Mu Xin Nuan smiled faintly, "He won't. Don't forget, Mu Xin Yao's crime warrants exile. If anyone discovers her whereabouts, they'll immediately report it to the authorities. Besides, even if no one discovers her, where do you think Mu Qing Yuan can hide her? Does he have that ability?"
Rong Yue was taken aback; that made sense.
This is Yanzhou. Not to mention that the Second Young Master has no support here, even if he did, who would dare to go against the Princess?
"But, Your Highness, someone as wicked as the Second Miss might come up with some other way to deal with you. She can't get out, but isn't the Second Young Master outside? Do you think she might..."
“That’s for sure,” Mu Xin Nuan said calmly. “If she didn’t do that, she wouldn’t be Mu Xin Yao.”
Rongyue was startled. "In that case, do you think we should send someone to follow the Second Young Master?"
"No need! Since I dared to let him see Mu Xinyao, I had no intention of guarding against him."
Rong Yue didn't understand, but Mu Hua blinked and understood.
"Since the Second Young Master came to Yanzhou, our Miss has never said a bad word about her. Not only that, but she has also arranged accommodations and servants for her. This is enough to make the Second Young Master very grateful. However, when the Second Young Master sees her, she will definitely say all sorts of bad things about her. It is immediately clear who is superior."
Rongyue nodded as if she suddenly understood, "I understand. Miss, this method is brilliant. Even if what the Second Miss said were reasonable, I'm afraid the Second Young Master would not help her."
"That's right, so we're not in a rush right now. As for A-Yuan, let him calm down first. After all, she's his own sister. If he's not upset at all, I'll be heartbroken. After all these years of hard work, all I've raised is an ungrateful wretch?"
"Your Highness, Madam He has arrived with Miss He."
Mu Xin Nuan nodded, "Please ask them to sit in the flower hall for a while, I'll be right there."
"Yes, princess."
"Aunt Fang, the child has just fallen asleep. If he wakes up in a little while and I'm not back yet, please give him some water to drink. Just be careful not to make him choke."
"Yes, princess."
This child is quite clever; at only a few months old, he can already be fed rice porridge with a small spoon.
Originally, Mu Xin Nuan was unwilling to let the child eat these things, worried that the child wouldn't be able to digest them.
But Duanmu Chuze said this would help the child, and now Mu Xin Nuan felt that the child's appetite seemed to have increased, and she was afraid that her breast milk would not be enough for him. There was no other way but to do this.
"Greetings to the princess."
"No need for formalities, please have a seat. What brings you here today, Madam He?" Mu Xin Nuan said with a smile, her eyes quickly sweeping over the mother and daughter.
"Well, I have something to ask of you, don't you know?"
"Oh? What do you need my help with, Madam He? Please speak frankly."
Madam He hesitated for a moment, then sighed softly, "To be honest, I'm a little embarrassed. Xiang Sheng, why don't you go outside and play with Sister Rong Yue first, okay?"
"Rongyue, please take a walk in the back garden, Miss He. The newly blooming crabapple trees there are quite beautiful."
"Yes, princess."
“Madam He, there are no outsiders here. Please speak your mind.”
"Your Highness, Xiang Sheng is now of marriageable age. As you can see, this girl is impeccable in all manners and etiquette. Therefore, we would like to ask Your Highness to help us make some connections."
Mu Xin Nuan had a good idea of what was going on, but she didn't know which family's young master Madam He had taken a liking to.
"Oh? May I ask which family's son Madam He has taken a fancy to?"
Madam He looked troubled. "To be honest, my husband and I have some disagreements about this matter. He has taken a liking to a scholar who passed the imperial examination last year. He is five years older than my Xiang Sheng, which is suitable. However, I have never met this person before, and he is currently far away from home. I am a little worried about him."
"When a daughter marries off, the mother is always worried about her marrying far away. What mother wouldn't feel heartache?"
"Your Highness is right. That's why I'm a little anxious, isn't it? Speaking of which, I've heard that the heir of the Duke of Lu's mansion in the capital is still unmarried. So, I was thinking of asking Your Highness to mediate between them. What do you think?"
Wang Ziyu?
Mu Xin Nuan was a little confused. Wang Ziyu's family background was undoubtedly impressive, but his age seemed a bit inappropriate.
"Madam He, didn't this young master Wang have already undergone his coming-of-age ceremony? I even heard before that he was betrothed. Could it be that it didn't happen?"
"Your Highness, I only learned about this yesterday from my sister-in-law's letter. I heard that the girl who was engaged to the young master has unfortunately died young, so the young master is not yet married."
"I see. If that's true, then it would be even more inappropriate for Miss He. I'm afraid the Duchess of Lu would be the first to refuse."
Madam He was slightly taken aback. "I wonder what the Princess means?"
“Young Master Wang has already completed his coming-of-age ceremony, but Miss He is still young. If we want to get engaged to Miss He, we will probably have to wait a few more years before we can get married. I'm afraid the Wang family will not agree to that.”
Mu Xin Nuan wasn't lying to her; it was indeed the truth.
Madam He had this in mind, which is why she came to plead with Princess Chang Le, but to her surprise, she was directly rejected.
Mu Xin Nuan, back at Yi Jing Garden, sneered. They actually had designs on her?
She refused to believe that Madam He wouldn't know that she had saved Wang Ziyu's life back then. And because of that, she was even granted the title of Princess by the Empress!
Knowing full well that their daughter could not possibly marry into the Wang family, this Mrs. He still tried to find a way to get in. What exactly is she trying to do?
Or is it that all of this is related to that Crown Princess?
