Xin Ruyi invited them to sit down and then ordered his servants to serve tea.
Although Mrs. Mu had humiliated her before, Xin Ruyi didn't care and remained polite.
Xiao Jialan sat aside to accompany him. Since today was Xin Ruyi's home court, she was only responsible for watching.
Mrs. Mu saw that Xin Ruyi was sitting on the main seat, and Xiao Jialan was sitting on the side. The status was clearly different. It seemed that Miss Ye was not an empty air.
Thinking of the rude words she had said before, Mrs. Mu couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
While hesitating, Xin Ruyi asked, "What's the matter with Mrs. Mu coming to our Duke's Mansion?"
Mrs. Mu came back to her senses and said hurriedly: "I heard that His Highness the Crown Prince is in your mansion, is it true?"
Xin Ruyi nodded and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and my eldest brother are discussing matters in the study. Is Madam asking to see His Highness the Crown Prince about Mu Rufeng's affairs?
If so, please come back, madam. Your Majesty has handed over this case to Prince Ping for trial, and it is not convenient for His Majesty the Crown Prince to intervene."
When Mrs. Mu heard this, her eyesight went dark and she almost fainted. She held on to the chair tightly and asked, "Can you let me see His Highness the Crown Prince?"
Xin Ruyi was not embarrassed and sent her maid directly to deliver the message.
She looked at Madam Mu and said, "What kind of trouble did Madam encounter?"
Mrs. Mu's eyes turned red and she said: "His Royal Highness Prince Ping came to visit the house. He fell in love with Xue Chu and wanted me to send my daughter to his house. Only then would he let Feng'er go. I came to beg the prince because I was desperate."
.”
Xin Ruyi's eyebrows moved. She didn't expect that Ping Wang Yuanhao would be so bold and use the case to blackmail Mrs. Mu.
Although she sympathized with her, she didn't show it. She just said, "Madam, you didn't agree? Because Miss Mu is your daughter, you can't bear to let her go?"
I remember when I was in prison, my wife didn’t treat me like this, just because I was an outsider? But I am also my mother’s daughter!”
Mrs. Mu was stunned for a moment, feeling a little ashamed. Sure enough, this was retribution.
She had a lot of prejudice against Xin Ruyi before and wanted her to be a widow for Zhao Jie. Now that the matter fell on her daughter, she realized how ridiculous her idea was.
Mrs. Mu stood up, saluted Xin Ruyi and said, "It's my fault. I offended the second lady before, so please..."
Before she could finish her words, Xin Ruyi hurriedly walked over and helped her up and said, "What are you doing, madam?"
Mrs. Mu said: "I apologize to you. In fact, everything you said is right. I am blind and prejudiced against you. I only thought about sacrificing you to save my Feng'er, but I never thought about how innocent you are?
I was too selfish, so God punished me and put my daughter in the predicament she is in now.
I only have two children, and I really don’t know what to do.”
She held Xin Ruyi's hand and said: "Second Miss, Third Miss, please help me and let me meet His Royal Highness."
As he spoke, he knelt down.
Xin Ruyi stopped her and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not sit idly by and ignore it. It was you who were too worried and lost your sense of proportion, and that's why you fell into Prince Ping's scheme. Don't worry, we will rescue Mu Rufeng."
Mrs. Mu was stunned. She looked at Xin Ruyi and said excitedly: "Seriously?"
Xin Ruyi helped her sit down and said, "Seriously, of course, I understand that as a mother, you are worried about your children, but you still didn't take what I said before to heart.
Mu Rufeng is the pillar of the country, a friend of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and my eldest brother, and the man I like. We will definitely go all out to save him, and what you have to do is to stay calm and don’t believe it no matter what news you hear.
