After the house was confiscated, I relied on billions of dollars in supplies to become a group favor

The third prince seemed to have an expression of displeasure, but he did not dare to show it too much in words.

After all, he is not a fool. Now that his father is ill, the old people in the court can't wait to support his hypocritical and pretentious fifth brother. At this juncture, he would not offend the fifth prince easily, lest this bitch instigate those old officials to impeach him, which would be very annoying.

If he gains power, the first thing he will do is to kill this fifth brother who is always against him and is so hypocritical that it makes people sick!

When the butler beside the third prince saw the fifth prince approaching, he also calmed down the arrogant and fierce look on his face, and just waited for his master's order peacefully.

This butler still knows how to bully the weak and fear the strong. He can be arrogant in front of the exiled former general Mu Yunxiao, but he does not dare to shout more in front of the fifth prince.

When they met the Fifth Prince, even though His Highness had always been at odds with their master, the group of servants still bowed respectfully and called out: "I have seen His Highness the Fifth Prince."

It was said that the fifth prince came to rescue Mu Yunxiao from the siege, but he never showed any such intention at all. It seemed that he came just to irritate the third prince.

"Steward Li? I've heard all the rumors about you."

What he was talking about was Butler Li's reputation for running rampant in the streets and having evil servants. Naturally, he borrowed the power of his master, who was insinuating against him, the idiot Third Emperor Brother.

Steward Li knew clearly that His Highness was mocking him, but he smiled in a flattering manner and did not dare to respond with a word.

The fifth prince! ?

Ruan He was surprised and immediately felt that this name was quite familiar.

After thinking about it for a moment, he suddenly recalled that Mu Yunxiao had mentioned to him that the prince who would secretly help them return to the capital was probably the person in front of him.

She was slightly startled, then looked away, and saw that Mu Yunxiao beside her had already adopted a distant and calm attitude, and he also saluted His Highness the Fifth Prince, and Ruan He also followed suit and saluted.

Ruan He could probably guess that Mu Yunxiao wanted to temporarily cover up his secret connection with the fifth prince, so that his return to the capital would not affect His Highness the fifth prince, who still had a lot of influence in the court.

When the fifth prince heard the third prince's implicit complaint, he chuckled lightly, as if he was a humble royal brother, and responded gently: "How can you call it nosy? The third prince did it If you do something wrong, why don’t I come over and give you a few words of advice?”

His words could not be described as carrying a gun or a stick, but they always made the third prince who usually disliked him more and more annoyed.

Lao Wu often used the name of admonishment to punish him, so much so that the third prince did not think of the relationship between Mu Yunxiao and the fifth prince.

With the fifth child here who was disgusted no matter how he looked at it, the third prince ignored Mu Yunxiao and his wife. He couldn't swallow the anger in his heart, but he thought of his mother and concubine's instructions yesterday, so he could only bear it. In a tone of voice, he flicked his sleeves and turned away angrily: "Go back home!"

The fifth prince came over in time to relieve Mu Yunxiao. His calm and calm gaze glanced at Mu Yunxiao and Mu Yunxiao. He paused for a moment on Ruan He's unfamiliar face, and then quickly glanced over, as if he was interested in the two of them. They didn't care too much, and immediately turned around and got on the soft sedan on the side.

They watched the two princes leave one after another, and the atmosphere around them seemed to suddenly relax.

Mu Yunxiao stood still for a moment, his dark eyes still calm and calm, as if he did not have much emotional ups and downs because of the deliberate humiliation of the third prince just now.

After a moment, he turned around, held his wife's hand with his big knuckled hand, and whispered hoarsely and gently: "Xiaohe, let's find an inn to rest first." The last time he left the capital, it was As a guilty minister, as soon as he returned to Beijing, the most important thing was the word "forbearance".

You have to endure all kinds of things and wait dormantly, waiting for the most suitable opportunity to clear yourself of your grievances and win a comfortable and stable future for the Mu family and his wife.

This is why Mu Yunxiao decided to return to Beijing after careful consideration.

Even if they can live a stable and comfortable life in Yuecheng now, they are just licking blood on the tip of a knife. The secret power in the capital has been staring at their family, and the black-clothed killer may come to Yuecheng at any time.

Mu Yunxiao hopes to give his family a completely peaceful life, so he has to return to the treacherous and dangerous capital to settle everything.

Ruan He paused for a moment, and from the sudden tightening of Mu Yunxiao's strength, he could vaguely sense the ups and downs of emotions he was hiding. He smiled softly, curved his lips, and held him back comfortingly. He didn't say much, just He responded: "Okay."

Before finding a suitable inn, they returned to the carriage and planned to sort out the baggage they had brought.

"My baggage..."

Ruan He stood in the narrow compartment of the carriage, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, and then she realized that the vibration of the carriage had caused the bundle she had placed beside her to fall to the ground.

Originally, when it was dropped like this, the bundle was only stained with a little dust, but the items inside were not so lucky. She weighed it gently twice, and a crisp rolling sound came from the bundle.

Ruan He's brows furrowed even more tightly, and his heart skipped a beat, as he had an ominous premonition. He hurriedly opened the baggage carefully to check it out.

In addition to some clothes, the innermost part of the bag was carefully wrapped in a delicate cloth bag. When the cloth bag was opened...

Inside is a simple jade hairpin.

Unfortunately, it has been broken into two halves, and fine cracks appear at the break of the jade hairpin, which was obviously broken by the vibration of the carriage just now.

This jade hairpin... was Mrs. Mutai's dowry. It was specially left for Ruan He to take back to the capital as a souvenir. Unexpectedly, it broke into two pieces.

Ruan He gently held the jade hairpin that was broken into two pieces. Her long and slender eyelashes that trembled slightly showed that she was not calm. She carefully put the two jade hairpins into the small cloth bag and hung them properly. At his waist, he stored it well.

The third prince, right...

She recognized this Liangzi! Wait!

Mu Yunxiao naturally saw the jade hairpin that was broken into two pieces. He could not comfort her, so he could only gently hold her hand, and they looked at each other in silence.

They don't have the ability to compete with the third prince yet, so they can only wait for the time being.

Wait a moment... (End of chapter)
