As the lady spoke, she started crying again. Mu Chuyang could not bear to see the girl cry, so he could only comfort her softly. "Alright, it's all over."

When the onlookers saw that there was no longer any excitement, they left one after another. However, there were still a few people who were muttering among themselves.

"You must have heard wrong, but that little girl is quite pitiful."

"What I know is that I did something wrong and rushed over to the Prince Mu's Mansion early in the morning, almost causing your reputation to suffer." The woman looked at Mu Chuyang, her eyes filled with sincerity, but Mu Chuyang felt his heart palpitating for no reason. Maybe the way she was staring at him made his scalp tingle.

"Young lady, it must be hard for you to follow me all the way to the capital. How about I send someone to take you to an inn to rest?" Mu Chuyang initially wanted to let the lady rest out, but who would have thought that the lady would suddenly kneel in front of him.

"Miss, what are you doing?" Mu Chuyang thought in his heart about what exactly had happened to him that morning, and his heart simply didn't stop beating wildly.

"Young master, you might not know this, but there is only one old father in my family. However, my father died of an illness, and it was young master who saved me." My original plan was to sell myself and bury my father. It was the young master who gave me a chance to live, and ever since that day, I've decided that I must find my young master and follow him. My life is Young Master's, and death is Young Master's ghost. " After she finished speaking, the woman kowtowed three times towards Mu Chuyang.

didn't know what to say for a moment. In the past, when he accompanied Duan Yunfei to listen to Little Melody and watch plays, he had also seen scenes like this. The young talented man helped out when he saw injustice and saved the girl who sold him to death.

However, Mu Chuyang never thought that such a drama would actually happen to him. The girls in those dramas would definitely become the young genius's concubines, whether intentionally or unintentionally. Mu Chuyang didn't know what the woman in front of him was planning, or maybe it was just to thank him, but he couldn't allow that to happen. He only had Duan Yunfei in his heart, and he definitely wouldn't allow anyone to try to fight for his love with Duan Yunfei.

"Lady, that day, I merely passed by and helped you. You do not need to take it to heart. Presumably, if it was any other person, they would not have ignored it. You said that you wanted to sell yourself to bury your father, but I didn't help you with the matter of you burying your deceased father, so I don't think you need to make such a huge gesture to me, and you don't need to follow me. " Mu Chuyang indicated for the servant to help the lady up, but she did not have the intention to help him.

"Does Young Master dislike me?" The lady raised her head and looked at Mu Chuyang with her teary eyes. On her forehead, there was a red mark from when she kowtowed just now, causing people's hearts to ache when they saw it.

Mu Chuyang was a warm-hearted person, and also a soft-hearted person. Mu Chuyang felt that he did not express any disdain towards his words just now. Although he felt that he was truly innocent and that he had already been charged with so many unwarranted crimes, he was still able to explain to the lady that there was no intention to despise his.

"Lady, I think you have misunderstood. I am not disdaining you. I just don't think I can afford to have you so grateful to me. Moreover, you are an honest girl, why should you sacrifice your life for such a trifling matter? You can either find a good husband, or do something you like, and don't have to worry about reporting on how I saved your life. "Hurry and get up."

Seeing that the servants were unable to support her, Mu Chuyang could only personally go and help. Fortunately, she did not insist on helping him.

"But …" Young master, I really have nowhere else to go. Young master, you can just take me in and keep me here as a cleaning girl. When my father was alive, he would say, 'A drop of water should be repaid by a spring.' Although I have never read a book, I know how to repay favors and favors. To Young Master, you just coincidentally helped a person on the way, but to me, it's a life saving favor. If it wasn't for Young Master, I wouldn't even know where I would have turned back to. I am not asking for anything else, nor do I want to seek riches. I just hope that Young Master can give me a chance to repay you. "

Mu Chuyang was moved by her words, but he could not make the decision on her own, as it would affect the life of this woman.

"Let me ask my parents. If they have no objections and you insist on doing so, you can stay."

Mu Chuyang sent a servant to the palace to ask for the Prince Mu and his opinion on the matter. After a while, the servants returned.

"What did father and mother say?"

"The prince and his wife said that this lady was saved by you, young master. This matter is entirely up to you, young master. The prince and his wife have no other opinions."

Since Prince Mu and Princess Hua-Yang did not say anything, Mu Chuyang could only keep them.

"Then from today onwards, you shall remain in the Prince Mu's Mansion. You can ask the butler about the matters of the house, but there shouldn't be too many things for you to do. Also, if you change your mind and don't want to stay in Prince Mu's Mansion, you only need to inform the butler. I won't sign any indenture contract with you, it's your own choice, you also have the chance to go back on your words. Even though you are in the Mu Residence, you are free to do so and I will not use this to restrain you. If you want to leave, you can leave at any time. "

After saying all that, Mu Chuyang then realized that he had not asked his for her name, and stopped in his tracks, looking at the girl: "May I know what her name is?"

"This servant is Qing Yi. Thank you for taking me in."
