Marry a Duke

Chapter 19 Express your feelings

Wei Xuan did not respond to her words, but went straight into the yard and asked Bi'an to close the door.

Fu Ran held the broom in his hand tightly with vigilance.

Then she thought about it and found it a little ridiculous. One of the two people in front of her was a guard, and the other was a duke who had made great contributions on the battlefield. Killing her would be as easy as pinching an ant.

"You—." She swallowed nervously.

The Duke of Weiguo wouldn't want to kill people to silence them right now, would he?

She was also trying hard to find a way to escape from Duke Weiguo and make a name for herself.

"Who assassinated you in *** that day?" Wei Xuan asked, his face expressionless, his eyes and eyebrows showing coldness.

Fu Ran subconsciously looked at his belly.

He knew that she had received this injury in the mansion of a wealthy man, and he probably knew who had assaulted her.

"If the Duke wants to know, I will tell you everything I know." She glanced at Bi'an.

Bi'an felt insulted.

"What are you looking at?" Bian shouted.

Wei Xuan gave him a cold look and he shut his mouth again.

"It was Ruhuijun who took the initiative." Her eyes wandered, sometimes on the fallen leaves on the ground, sometimes on Wei Xuan's face.

"Duke Weiguo, do you know that Princess Ruhui has been in love with you for a long time and has been pestering you to marry into Duke Weiguo's mansion all day long."

Bi'an's face changed again. He thought that if it was Princess Ruhui who married in today, the Duke's life would be even more difficult.

After all, Ruhui is a princess. She cannot be sent away at will, nor can she be made angry.

Maybe people in the mansion will have to endure her anger.

"How can she be worthy of it?" Bi'an said angrily.

"Bi'an." Wei Xuan growled in a low voice. He was becoming more and more impatient.

Bi'an gritted his teeth and said nothing more.

Fu Ran glanced into the room and said, "If you have anything else to ask, why don't you come in and sit down? There's no tea, but there are tables and chairs."

She spoke politely because she didn't want the respected Duke Weiguo to stand in the yard and talk to her.

Wei Xuan entered the house first.

Although the house is not big, it has everything you need. Because it has been occupied by guests before, the furnishings remain the same as before without any additions or subtractions.

Fu Ran said that the tables and chairs in the room had been wiped and were clean, so Wei Xuan could sit down without worry.

"Are you reminding me that the Duke's Mansion has treated you harshly in every way." Wei Xuan lifted his robe and sat down, his dark eyes deep.

Fu Ran immediately shook his head.

"No, I was just worried that the Duke's Mansion might have mysophobia. They didn't throw me into the dungeon, which was already a favor."

She knows a little bit of good and she reports it with great enthusiasm.

It would be unwise to anger this person, and she would not do such a stupid thing.

"It's already very good for me to have an independent courtyard. The Duke's Mansion is in trouble right now, so I won't force it. If one day I am of no use to the Duke's Mansion, please show some mercy and let me leave."

Fu Ran said very sincerely.

Her wishes were very small.

She had once thought about how she could make a name for herself in the world, but facts told her that it was not easy in the capital, where power was omnipotent.

For a helpless maid of low status, it is a blessing to be able to save her life.

Right now she just wanted to make her feelings clear. She had no bad intentions in coming to the Duke's Mansion and she had no choice.

Sure enough, Wei Xuan narrowed his eyes.

"You are now the wife of Duke Weiguo, but you are thinking about how to leave the mansion?" This is a trick of playing hard to get.

"No, no, no, I dare not take on such a noble identity as the wife of Duke Weiguo." She was a humble and small maid.

Fu Ran's little face was full of loneliness.

"Actually, I was not the one chosen that day." She described the situation that day in detail.

That was arranged by ***, and it was indeed quite secretive.

Of course they didn't know that Princess Ruhui had also taken banned drugs.

After hearing this, Wei Xuan frowned slightly.

Bi'an's eyes widened even more.

"So, after the wedding date was set, Princess Ruhui couldn't stand me in any way. She thought that if she could kill me with a knife, no one would marry into the Duke of Wei's mansion, and she would have another chance in the future."

Fu Ran tried his best to show his determination in front of Duke Weiguo.

"My Lord, I really didn't mean it. The *** is all-powerful. I am of humble status, and she threatened me with my family and poisoned me."

As she spoke, her eyes became red.

A crystal tear fell.

Fu Ran was thinking about her previous life. In that environment, she could rely on herself to do everything.

But now that she came to this world, she wanted to fight, but she found it was even more difficult than in her previous life.

Wei Xuan pursed his thin lips, his dark eyes fixed on the expression on her face, not missing the tears she shed.

The sadness in her eyes is real and cannot be faked.

Wei Xuan didn't say anything else, just stood up and was about to leave.

Fu Ran called him back when he was about to leave.

"Anything else?" He didn't turn around.

Bi'an looked back at her with a complicated expression. Now looking at her, he didn't find her that annoying.

Fu Ran sniffed.

"My Lord, you should pay more attention to the people around you. The Queen Mother married me here just to confuse people. How can someone like me be used by the Queen Mother?"

"Perhaps, she has sent other more reliable people to be placed in the Duke's Mansion."

Seeing that she stopped talking, Wei Xuan walked away.

After passing the Chrysanthemum Courtyard, Bi'an looked back, still puzzled.

"Master, do you think she is stupid? She told us everything. If the police knew about it, would they let her and her family go?"

Wei Xuan didn't reply to him.

After returning to Chaoguangyuan, he ordered Bi'an to send someone to investigate immediately.

Soon there was confirmed news that everything Fu Ran said was true.

Fu Ran's brother, sister-in-law and two nephews are all in the hands of ***.

*

Return to the door three times.

If the nanny from the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion hadn't reminded her, Fu Ran would have had no idea about this.

She has no natal family.

Her original body's brother had sold her to the *** family a long time ago. It was a death contract and she would never be able to return to Furan in this lifetime.

The maid at the Duke of Weiguo's mansion reminded her that it was the Duke of Wei's mansion that she had to return to.

Fu Ran then realized that *** had adopted her as his adopted daughter.

She had to follow the rules for an adopted daughter. She was married from a *** mansion, so it was natural for her to return to her parents' home.

The Duke of Weiguo's Mansion has already prepared gifts for the return visit.

He also gave Fu Ran a set of luxurious clothes and a set of headgear.

That day, when Fu Ran couldn't even comb her hair, Madam Wei was really shocked. She sent a maid who was responsible for doing her hair.

Early in the morning, she didn't even have breakfast before she was forced to dress up and change clothes.

When everything was ready, she asked for a steamed bun to fill her stomach.

The nanny took her to the old lady's courtyard, and the old lady would definitely give her a lecture.

After being dressed up today, Fu Ran doesn't look like a maid at all. She has a good figure and a thin waist, and the clothes she wears make her look like a noble lady.

She stood there with a calm expression, and one might indeed mistake her for a young lady from some unknown family.

Old Madam Wei also glanced at her again.

"When you get to the Duke's Mansion, say what you should say, and if you shouldn't say anything, it's best not to say anything at all."
