But now, her young lady doesn't seem to shy away from His Highness Prince Ning, and the two of them even behave in a very close manner, so they must be more than just friends.
If her young lady and His Highness Prince Ning...
Xia Zhu didn't dare to think about it anymore, and at the same time, his face showed pain and confusion.
Nan Feng, who was on the side, saw Xia Zhu's sad face, so he had to bump her gently with his shoulder, and then whispered: "Don't be so reckless next time. If my Highness blames you, you will not be able to bear the consequences."
Nanfeng's words rang in his ears, and Xia Zhu finally reacted.
This bastard just hugged her waist again.
For a moment, I was so embarrassed and angry that I couldn't help but glare at him.
I also thought to myself: What kind of master brings out what kind of slave.
She ignored Nan Feng and walked aside to wait.
Chu Mu inside had already known it when Xia Zhu came in.
But Ruan Tang didn't know, and he didn't plan to tell her right away.
After rubbing his ankles, he directly picked her up and entered the inner room next to her.
Ruan Tang had not yet recovered from the pain in his feet. When he saw him carrying her to the inner room, he suddenly became anxious.
Isn't this guy such a bitch?
She is still injured, why is he so impatient?
"Your Highness, what are you doing? Let me go." Ruan Tang said while struggling.
Chu Mu ignored her struggle, just glanced at her, and then placed her on a bamboo bed in the inner room.
And he sat down by the bed and ordered: "Take off your clothes."
Ruan Tang moved back and opened the distance between the two of them. He put his hands on his chest and looked at him warily.
"Your Highness, you...what are you going to do? I...I'm still injured."
You're not such a beast, are you?
Or is this the purpose of bringing her here?
She really healed her scar and forgot about the pain. How could she forget what kind of person he was.
He was not a compassionate person to begin with, but he had always been greedy for her body.
It seems that he went back to the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion to spend a few days in peace, but he completely forgot about his true nature.
And he was almost confused by his abnormality during this period.
"What do you think?" Chu Mu said quietly.
"Don't try to force me. I...I'm not afraid of you now. It's impossible for me to give in."
Chu Mu sneered, "Really? You are no longer afraid of me so quickly. It seems that you are indeed getting bolder."
"If you dare to force yourself, I will... die in front of you."
She had been trapped in the palace by him before, and she had no choice but to do so. She was also afraid that her resistance would make Chunhan, Xiaofeng and the others difficult, so she gave in as a last resort.
Now she is not afraid anymore. Xiaofeng and the others are already in his hands anyway. If he really wanted to kill them, he would have done so long ago.
Staying here until now proves that he has no intention of killing them.
That being the case, she had nothing for him to do.
How could you give in so easily?
As Ruan Tang said that, he took out the hairpin from his hair crown and put it against his neck.
Chu Mu was so angry at her scene that his whole face turned black, and his eyes were full of anger.
"Ruan Tang, you are really intolerable!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ruan Tang felt that he was approaching her, but before she could react, he pinched the hairpin in her hand.
He pressed her on the bed and stared at her for a while, then stood up, rolled up his sleeves and left.
Ruan Tang was in shock, lying on the bed panting and looking pale.
Not long after, she heard footsteps coming in, and she sat up from the bed in fright.
When he saw that the person coming was Xia Zhu, he was stunned for a moment, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Xia Zhu came in with the medicine box and sat down beside her bed.
"Miss, His Highness Prince Ning said that your back was injured and asked me to come in and give you medicine."
Ruan Tang was stunned for another moment, something flashed in his mind.
Then she realized later that when he asked her to take off her clothes just now, he must have wanted to help her look at the injury on her waist?
But she misunderstood that he wanted to... have something with her.
No wonder he was so angry.
I couldn't help but feel a twinge of guilt.
But then I thought about it, he didn't even take revenge for his sword and sword. He saved himself and gave himself medicine, wasn't it right?
And the horse is still his.
I just misunderstood him, and he didn't lose a drop of blood?
Thinking of this, the guilt in Ruan Tang's heart disappeared.
It's just that the guy is uncertain, so next time he might cause trouble for me, it would be better to say sorry to him.
"Is His Highness Prince Ning still outside?"
Xia Zhu shook his head, "His Royal Highness has left, but he left the carriage and driver for us. He asked me to give the lady the medicine before returning to the house."
"Oh." Ruan Tang responded, and then couldn't help but sigh.
The next time we meet, he probably won't look good on me. I just hope they don't see each other again.
Xia Zhu had been observing her from the side, and seeing her suddenly depressed, he couldn't help but ask: "Miss, are you and His Highness Prince Ning..."
"No, don't think nonsense." Ruan Tang immediately retorted to her, with a somewhat ugly look on his face.
Xia Zhu is the original owner's confidant maid. She grew up with the original owner and has always been by his side to serve her.
When the original owner left the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion, he couldn't bear the thought of suffering with her, so he deliberately didn't take her with him, so the two of them separated.
Ruan Tang believed in her because she was the original owner, so after returning to the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion, he did not avoid her in many matters.
But the more she knew about Chu Mu's affairs, the worse it would be for her.
Xia Zhu said "Hmm" and did not ask any more questions. Instead, he raised his hand to help her undress.
"Miss, let me apply medicine to you first!"
Ruan Tang nodded, let her take off her clothes, and helped her apply medicine and bandage.
After everything was done, the two left the bamboo house and got on the carriage Chu Mu left for them.
However, their carriage was not far from the bamboo house when Ruan Changhuan and Ruan Wenxuan came towards them and stopped their carriage.
Ruan Tang was sitting in the carriage and saw the carriage suddenly stopped. He was about to ask the coachman what happened when Ruan Changhuan's voice came from outside.
"Who is inside? Is it someone from the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion?" Ruan Changhuan yelled at the coachman.
Ruan Tang's heart trembled, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.
But she quickly regained her composure, raised her hand to lift the curtain, and looked outside.
Ruan Changhuan outside saw Ruan Tang and immediately became anxious.
"Brother, I told you, it's her. She has no shame and comes here to have a tryst with a man."
Ruan Wenxuan also cast an inquiring look at Ruan Tang, but he was several years older than Ruan Changhuan and was not as impulsive as Ruan Changhuan.
"Huan'er, don't make nonsense. No matter what, you still have to ask sister A Tang to judge."
"Why are you asking? When I was in the paddock, I saw a man sneaking around to find Xia Zhu. If she hadn't had a tryst with the man here, how could she have sent someone to call Xia Zhu here?"
"Moreover, she disappeared not long after entering the paddock. If she wasn't here for a tryst with a man, where was she?"
When Ruan Tang was riding a horse, Ruan Changhuan and the others were in the stands. They were far away and they did not see clearly that the person riding the horse was Ruan Tang.
Moreover, in their impression, Ruan Tang is a weak and incompetent person. How could he possibly be able to ride a horse? And he was riding King Ning’s fierce fire.
Ruan Tang didn't panic now. After all, they didn't see Chu Mu leave here. It was just a guess that she had a tryst with someone.
As long as they don't have substantial evidence, how can she say it's not up to her?
"Also, where did her carriage come from? This is not the carriage in our house." Ruan Changhuan continued.
Ruan Wenxuan did not speak anymore, but looked at Ruan Tang, waiting for Ruan Tang's explanation.
Ruan Tang was no longer in a hurry now and said slowly: "This carriage belongs to Shen Qianyi."
