He's gone
She was no longer that overbearing and brainless Xue Luoyun. The powerful aura emanating from her body made her feel inexplicably flustered.
Xue Ruyun turned his head to look at Yun Zhi, giving her a reassured look.
She pulled on her fox fur coat and wrapped her arms around her waist as she sneered, "Sister, it really doesn't hurt to stand and talk. If only your yard had an extra man like me in the middle of the night. "You have a strong heart, so naturally, you won't think too much about it. I just don't know if His Highness the Crown Prince will think too much about it."
Xue Ruyun's counterattack instantly caused Xue Lianshui to feel both ashamed and angry. Not only did he get slapped by her previously, she had even made him look flirtatious in front of the crown prince.
The servants on the side, upon seeing this, were also so shocked that their mouths gaped open. How could this be the young miss that they knew?
If it was in the past, the young mistress would have already been flaunted by the old master upon receiving such mockery. Now, she actually spoke so many wonderful words. Three eyes and two words actually made Xue Lian feel embarrassed. It seemed that he would have to be careful in front of Eldest Miss from now on.
"Elder sister, you … …"
"Alright!" Xue Duan Sheng shouted angrily when he saw the two of them arguing loudly in front of each other.
When the two of them heard this, they immediately shut their mouths.
Looking at the marks made by Xue Lian's palm, he couldn't help but become angry at Xue Lao Yun. Then, he thought about what had happened today. It was a chaotic and complicated incident, and one of the people in Zhao's residence couldn't escape from having a relationship with the Zhao Family. Both of them were at fault.
As the saying goes, it is difficult for an official to cut off the family's affairs. Since nothing big had happened, Xue Duan Sheng simply couldn't be bothered to pursue the matter further and directly said: "Zhao Anzhi and the servant girl had an affair that would harm the society. Beating Zhao Anshu up for an example. The Rainbow Phoenix seduced its master, causing him to lose his life. The Zhao family didn't discipline their servants properly and received a fine of half a year. "Xue Ruyun, disrespecting your elders, privately designed a trap and punished you to stay in seclusion for three months." After which, he flicked his sleeves and left.
A figure in the distance secretly clenched his fists.
After the servant finished listening, he hurriedly received the order to drag the two people away.
"Old master, spare me..." The miserable begging sounds of the rainbow phoenix gradually faded away.
"Auntie, Auntie, please save me …" Zhao Anyi finally couldn't help but howl as he helplessly grabbed onto the corner of Mrs Zhao's skirt and was dragged away.
"Xue Ruyun, you bastard, just you wait!" Mrs Zhao suffered a night of anger, lost her husband, lost her troops, gnashed her teeth and cursed loudly.
"Mother, I advise you to hurry and see your good nephew. If you have time, please call the doctor. Also, find a new maid. " After speaking, Xue Ruyun pulled on his fox fur coat, turned around, and proudly walked back into the room.
Mrs. Zhao and Xue Lian, who had left the group, stomped their feet in hatred, along with a group of servants.
After returning to her room, Yun Zhi hurriedly poured a cup of tea and handed it to Xue Ruoyun. "Miss, please drink some water and calm down."
"There's smoke coming out of my throat." Xue Ruyun sat down at the table, took the cup of tea, and drank it all in one gulp.
"This old master is really too biased. He clearly wants to frame you, but he doesn't want to avenge you." And I'm punishing you for no reason at all. Is it wrong to protect yourself? " Yun Zhi had already suppressed her anger a long time ago. Now, seeing everyone leaving, only the two of them couldn't help but complain.
During the time that Yun Zhi had followed Xue Ruoyun, she had gradually become bold enough to speak up and cry out over the young miss's injustice. Unlike before, he would only silently suffer grievances alongside his master. It was as he had said, a master would have his own servant girl.
"Why do you care so much? Didn't you already know this would happen?" He stood up, walked to the bedside, and laid down in a relaxed manner, as if he had seen nothing.
"Miss, you're such a good person …"
"Alright, no need to say anymore. Serving me so that I can undress and sleep." Xue Luoyun waved his hand, instructing.
"Yes, miss." Yun Zhi could only helplessly agree to leave.
Seeing Yun Zhi retreat, Xue Ruoyun turned around and got up from the bed. He pushed open the window and looked outside. He saw that it was dark and quiet outside, and even more so after everyone had dispersed, leaving only the cold moonlight.
It seemed that the person had left …
Xue Luoyun actually felt a little bit of disappointment in her heart, but she didn't notice it.
It turned out that when she and Xue Lian were engaged in a war of words a moment ago, … Relying on the intuition of a bodyguard, Xue Luoyun faintly felt that a group of gazes was staring at them from the side of the forest not far away.
If Xue Ruyun's guess was correct, that person should be the conquest of kings. However, he had clearly said goodbye, but why did he still not leave. Also, what was he doing here just now? He was too busy to ask.
As soon as Mu Ying returned to his room, he slammed the table in anger and sat down. Seeing his gloomy and cold expression, the surrounding maidservants trembled in fear.
On the way back just now, Mu Ying had always been indignant and the pent-up emotions in his heart had finally exploded. Who would have thought that Xue Duan Sheng, the Prime Minister of a country, was actually such a person who didn't know what was right and wrong.
Just now, he had seen everything clearly from afar. It was clearly someone who had deliberately framed Xue Luoyun, wanting to destroy her innocence. After doing such a dirty thing, Xue Duan Sheng actually didn't interrogate him any further. Instead, he reprimanded him a few times without any pain or itch, and he even punished Xue Luoyun! If it wasn't for the fact that he was from a country, Mu Ying would have gone berserk on the spot!
He didn't think that he would only want to see Xue Ruyun today. He didn't think that he would actually see such a good show with his own eyes. This time, he had truly seen Xue Muyun's position in the Xue Clan.
On the surface, she appeared to be a young miss, but in reality, she was being schemed against in the Xue Clan like an outsider. It was fine if she was framed by her mother and sisters, but even the servants were trying to take advantage of her and add insult to injury. It seemed that if he hadn't saved her last time, she really might have died in the lake.
He didn't expect that despite looking so unyielding on the outside, she was secretly enduring so much grievance. It was because of her strong mental fortitude that she had been able to survive until today. Otherwise, who knew how many people would have plotted against her and caused her to die. This woman had really piqued his interest more and more.
When he thought of Xue Ruyun, a trace of warmth emerged on Mu Rong Hao's face. Her skin was faintly visible as she thought of the day she had met her in the garden. Despite having angered him to the point that his mouth was parched, he still claimed that he didn't reveal anything. Thinking of this, Mu Ying felt a bit angry.
However, the trap she had set up was truly ingenious. Facing the mockery and ridicule of the Zhao Family's Xue Lianshui and the others, he actually managed to handle it so easily. With just a few words, he had put the other party in a difficult position.
"Tuskiness isn't good, but I like it." Mu Ying laughed again.
"Prince, what are you laughing at?" His bodyguard Ming couldn't help but ask.
Mu Ying regained his senses and quickly retracted his expression. "Nothing." He was surprised in his heart. He didn't know when, but his eyes were completely attracted to this woman. His emotions were all influenced by her smile and her frown.
