Huo Xi not only found Mu Yan, but also lent him a boat so that he could return after performing great feats.
He has to be named the crown prince of the Duke of Guizhou!
Yu Wenying was shocked.
She wanted Mu Yan to be alive, but she didn't want him to be found by Huo Xi. But it happened that Huo Xi went to sea to find him. Now Huo Xi has become Mu Yan's savior and the best daughter-in-law candidate in Mrs. Cheng's heart.
Yu Wenying didn't know what to do for a moment.
Is it a joke that she came all the way to the capital?
Moreover, the crown prince whom the emperor personally calls will definitely inherit the dukedom of Guizhou in the future. If there is a son-in-law of the Duke of Guizhou in the family, the family can support her.
But after he came back, he didn't even look at her, not even a look.
Yu Wenying was a little panicked. She couldn't end up like that, and she couldn't let the Duke's government send her back to Yunnan. During her golden years, she couldn't live in a nunnery like a dry well like her aunt.
And as soon as he came back, she only glanced at him, and she knew that she was finished, and her heart fell on him.
Countless times in her dreams, she imagined the person she would spend her whole life with looking like Young Master Mu. He was tall and tall, with a cold face. Even if he didn't even look at her, she felt that he was deeply attracted to her.
.
The maid serving Yu Wenying reported Yu Wenying's strange behavior to Mrs. Geng one by one.
"Miss Yu is afraid that her heart has fallen on the young master. She is sewing sachets for the young master in the house. She also asked the sewing room about the size of the young master's clothes and wants to make clothes, shoes and socks for the young master."
Mrs. Geng's eyes lit up after hearing this.
I heard from Mrs. Cheng that Mu Yan would only wait for the British Duke's nod before asking the emperor for a marriage decree. At that time, there would really be nothing he could do to save his life.
When the time comes, he will be a crown prince personally named by the emperor, and he will also have a high relative, and his father-in-law will be powerful. Can Zhan'er still be able to compete with him?
Once Mu Yan seizes the title, the title will be passed down to the descendants of the big house. What about her second wife? Her grandchildren will all become side branches of the Duke's mansion in the future.
Mrs. Geng felt that she could not let such a thing happen.
Although Mu Yan was granted the title of Crown Prince, if he misbehaved, his title could be removed, let alone the title of Crown Prince.
At that time, the British public will be disgusted, and I am afraid that there will be no future.
"Go and call Miss Yu."
Yu Wenying was quickly called.
Mrs. Geng asked her directly: "Miss Yu, you haven't forgotten the reason why your family sent you to the capital, right?"
"Wenying dare not forget. Wenying would like to thank Mrs. Tai for planning for Wenying and the Yu family."
"I didn't plan anything for your Yu family. I just remembered how your family helped the old Marquis when he was in the most difficult time. When the old Marquis was dying, he asked me to take more care of your aunt. These things
I have never forgotten the old Marquis’s instructions.”
"Yes, thank you very much, old lady, for taking care of my aunt and my Yu family."
Mrs. Geng glanced at her and said, "Mu Yan is also of my blood. I only hope that he will be happy. I heard that he likes the eldest daughter of the British Duke and wants to ask the emperor for a marriage decree. I couldn't be happier.
If the eldest daughter of a British prince can marry into my Mu family, it will be a great virtue for our ancestors..."
Mrs. Geng was still talking, but Yu Wenying couldn't listen anymore.
She knew that Mu Yan liked Miss Zhang, but did he actually want to ask the emperor for a marriage?
So what chance does she have?
He knelt down towards Mrs. Tai and said, "Mrs. Tai, please do it. Please look at the fact that the Yu family has spared no effort to help Yunnan Mu Mansion these years, and please look at me for coming to the capital alone to seek refuge.
, help my little girl!”
He banged his head heavily on the floor tiles.
Mrs. Geng’s thoughts were not unknown to Yu Wenying.
If it was true, as she said, that she hoped that Master Mu would marry the eldest daughter of a British prince, she would not have a fight with Mrs. Cheng.
Nor would he take her to various banquets and let a lot of people misunderstand that she was Mu Yan's wife without explaining.
She knew that Mrs. Geng had the same idea as her.
"You kid, what are you doing? Why do you keep kneeling all the time? The floor tiles are so hard, and your knees don't hurt. Get up quickly and talk to me if you have anything to say." She ordered the girl to help Yu Wenying up.
"Please have mercy on me, madam."
"Hey, you kid, I didn't know that Yan'er had someone I liked at the beginning, so I took you here out of consideration for the kindness of your Yu family. I didn't want to, but I ended up harming you. Now that I'm riding a tiger and it's hard to get off, I'm afraid your infatuation is going to kill you.
I paid the wrong thing, and I can’t bear to see it..."
Mrs. Geng thought for a moment, "Let's do this. I'll give you a chance to say a few words to Yan'er in person. If you have anything to say, tell him. That kid is a soft-hearted person.
Maybe I can understand your difficulties."
"Yes, thank you Madam!"
"Hey, I did something bad with good intentions. I asked you to be alone with him and say a few soft words. No matter whether he listens or not, you can't complain about the result."
"Yes, thank you so much, Madam. As long as I have a few words with the young master alone, he will understand my daughter's situation. I hope he can have some sympathy, and my daughter will have no regrets."
"Hey, you kid, I've suffered a lot."
The madam comforted Yu Wenying and let her go down. She turned around and put the expression on her face away, and asked her servants to prepare.
Although Yu Wenying knew that Mrs. Tai would call Mu Yan and give her a chance to be alone with him, she felt that this was not enough, so she asked the maid from home to make preparations.
Unexpectedly, what Yu Wenying and Mrs. Geng wanted to do at this moment were surprisingly consistent.
It wasn't until the sky was filled with stars that Mu Yan got out of the banquet and returned to his mansion.
As soon as he returned to the house, his servants told him that his wife was looking for him and took him to a courtyard.
There was a waterside pavilion in the Duke of Guizhou's Mansion, with warm light shining inside. Mu Yan was about to walk towards the curved bridge connecting the waterside pavilion, when he saw that the servant who brought him there had disappeared. Mu Yan looked around, and there was no waiter outside the waterside pavilion.
There are no servants either.
Suspicion suddenly arose in his heart. But when he turned around, he was suddenly stopped by someone.
At first glance, "Fourth uncle?" Is it the fourth uncle looking for him?
"Uncle Fourth is looking for me?"
Mu Xin looked at him deeply and said: "Go back. Don't take the original route. Use your martial arts to jump over the wall and go back to your yard."
Jump over the courtyard wall? Why?
"Don't ask, just go back." Mu Xin's face was expressionless.
Mu Yan glanced at him suspiciously and didn't want to look into it carefully. He glanced at him again and jumped over the wall.
And Mu Xin, watching Mu Yan leave, looked at the waterside pavilion. The candles inside were dancing and extinguishing. He did not hesitate and stepped onto the curved bridge...
After Mu Yan came back, he thought about it and couldn't figure it out. He asked Kan Er to call the servant who had just led him to the waterside pavilion and interrogate him again.
Only then did I know the reason.
He was so anxious that he tried to stop Mu Xin, but was stopped by Li Yi.
"Sir, that's fine. If it doesn't work this time, there will be another time waiting for you. It's hard to guard against. I don't know which day I will be tricked. Now Fourth Master is willing to help solve this hidden danger once and for all.
Yes, it can be regarded as solving a worry for me."
"This has never been my concern. Besides, it's not my fourth uncle's responsibility to bear all this for me."
Li Yi and Kan Er both stopped him: "I'm afraid the Fourth Master has already made his choice."
"Moreover, the Yu family has indeed been helping Yunnan Mu Mansion over the years. When the old Marquis was here, he often talked about the kindness of the Yu family. This time, the fourth master must have helped the family repay the kindness. And the princess has also gone so
After a long time, if you can make Fourth Master empathize, it will be considered a merit. Besides, Miss Yu is not bad in appearance..."
