Xiao Hong returned to the Mu Manor familiarly, walking towards the Clear Wind Pavilion. Her familiar appearance made it seem as though she was strolling around her own home.
As he passed by the garden, he saw a green figure standing in the pavilion in the middle of the lake. A gentle breeze blew past as it gently rolled up the corners of her clothes, giving off a feeling as if she had transcended the mortal world.
"Miss, please do not take these rumors to heart. People are forgetful, and after a while, it will all quiet down. If it is then, no one will remember this matter at all. " The Blue Luan looked at Mu Yuting's gloomy expression and racked its brains to console her.
Mu Yu Ting sneered: "Calm down? I'm afraid it's not that simple! "
This matter was obviously caused by someone behind the scenes. Otherwise, it wouldn't have spread so widely. As for who that person was, she didn't even need to think to guess.
Since Jiang Chen Bi Bi was not afraid of trouble, she had spent so much effort just to ruin her reputation. How could she let him go so easily? He would probably have to wait for her to lose her reputation, overshadow the negative effects he had brought her last time, and only then would he stop.
"Who is it that makes so many enemies in a normal day? To think that people on the street are so poor, how could they be used to arrange such a scene?"
When Mu Yu Ting heard the voice from behind her, the nameless fire in her heart immediately flared up. She didn't know when, but Xiao Chong had started to call her by her name. This caused her to feel more or less uncomfortable.
"What does Your Highness mean by this?" Mu Yu Ting looked at Xiao Xian indifferently, saying coldly, "I remember that Prince is also the main character in this matter." "Is Your Highness not afraid that if word of his words were to spread, it would hurt your reputation?"
Xiao Hong lightly waved the folding fan in her hand without a care. She looked at Mu Yuting with an even greater smile in her eyes. "Do you think that this matter will have a great impact on your lordship, or on yours?"
He was only carrying the title of 'Receiver' when he was pushed to his death, but when compared to Mu Qiantang, who was seductive, vicious, and thought of human life as grass, his image was far inferior. It was simply not worth mentioning.
"Hai, I didn't expect this." Xiao Zhan sighed as he shook his head, but everyone could see the mockery in his eyes. "The dignified Prime Minister's daughter would actually do such a terrible thing to humiliate the imperial family."
Mu Yu Ting's expression darkened even further. Her eyes seemed as though they were about to spit fire as she looked at Xiao Chen. How could she know such an unreliable person? All she knew was how to make fun of her.
"Compared to what you did, Young Master Han's mere insults this morning is nothing. I feel pity for that Third Marquis. I didn't expect to meet such a vicious and ruthless woman! "
The smile on Xiao Hong's face became more and more uncontrollable. He was in an even better mood, and all the anger and depression on his face disappeared like a wisp of smoke in thin air. Sure enough, this sort of thing still needed to be shouldered by others. Looking at others' angry expressions, it really didn't feel good.
Mu Yu Ting stomped her foot in anger, but her expression changed very quickly. That exploding look of hers was slowly retracted. Her beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of slyness as she said, "Your Royal Highness, I'll have to trouble you to clarify this matter for me."
"Oh?" Xiao Chen had originally felt it was funny when he saw Mu Yu Ting's expression change so quickly. He couldn't help but be startled, but the curiosity in his heart deepened. "I wonder why Lan Ting said that?" Could it be that you want to use This King's identity as a future wangfei to threaten me? "
He didn't like it when others threatened him the most in his life, but he didn't mind Mu Yuting's threats. He kept having the feeling that it was an especially interesting thing to see how pleased he was with himself.
"Prince, I'm a bit emotional. If I spend my days in gossip, I'll feel unhappy. If I don't, I won't have the energy to develop the antidote." Mu Yuting rubbed her forehead as she spoke, "For the safety of your highness, I'd like to ask your highness to help me settle this matter as soon as possible."
"If Zhu Ting really gives up on researching the antidote because of this matter, then it doesn't matter." Xiao Cheng didn't seem anxious at all as he lightly waved the fan in his hand.
Mu Yu Ting was stunned. She looked at his face and didn't know how to reply. What did he mean? Could it be that he didn't care about the Blood Gu anymore?
"This King can imprison you beside This King for your entire life and suppress you by drinking your blood."
When Mu Yuting heard this, she couldn't help but snort coldly, "Prince, you're thinking too highly of yourself. Although I am only a small daughter of the Prime Minister and cannot compare to your esteemed position, I am also not someone that the Prince can play with as he pleases. "
"Oh, is that so? Since Qiantang doesn't believe it, let's just wait over there." Xiao Xian didn't mind Mu Yuting's suspicions. The smile on his face became even wider as he turned around and left the pavilion.
"Miss, what if Prince really did that?" As the Blue Luan watched Xiao Cheng's departing figure, a hint of worry appeared in its eyes.
"He's still going. I don't believe that he can really do as he pleases." Mu Yu Ting snorted coldly. It was obvious that she didn't care about this.
In the afternoon, the warmth of the autumn sun passed through the thin clouds and scattered across the ground. Mu Lutong was resting on a bench in the courtyard as she slept.
"Miss." The Blue Luan walked in from outside the courtyard and lightly nudged Mu Yuting. "Just now, there was an imperial edict …"
Hearing the word 'imperial edict', Mu Yu Ting was startled. Her originally drowsy state immediately disappeared. "imperial edict?"
The Blue Luan nodded with a sullen look, "That's right, Miss. "Your highness just went to the palace to ask the Emperor for an order to let him stay at the Mu Estate to recuperate."
He hadn't thought that the Third Marquis would actually do as he said. He was so fast, and in just half a day, he had completed the task.
Mu Yu Ting only felt pain in her head again as she rubbed her temples. She just saw Jiang Chen off and now there's another Xiao Chan. She really couldn't let her calm down for more than a few minutes.
"Miss, I've heard the other maidservants mention it. Just now, the Matriarch's expression wasn't very good after receiving the decree." The Blue Luan reminded her carefully. When it thought of Mu Taijun's furious expression, it couldn't help but shiver.
Mu Yu Ting's originally good mood was immediately disturbed by this matter. The matters that were waiting for her to settle made her even more frustrated. "I know."
The news of the Palace coming to deliver the decree to the Mu Estate quickly spread throughout the entire capital. The original relationship between Xiao Chen and Mu Yuting had received the attention and discussion of everyone. Now, this had increased their expectations towards the topic.
The news spread like wildfire, spreading like wildfire. As time passed by, a new version of the story appeared among the commoners. It was said that Mu Yu Ting had seduced the Emperor and asked him to help her on her relationship with Xiao Zhen.
When Mu Yu Ting found out about this matter from the Blue Luan, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
