The Abandoned Wife of a Military Family: Your disguise has been exposed again.

Chapter 200 makes it sound like she was after his looks.
As Yun Wei pondered, she heard Rong Zhen's voice say, "Yu Shu, you've worked hard these past two years. I will submit a memorial to the throne to recommend you for merit, so don't worry."

Yu Shu wiped away her tears, smiled and shook her head, "Serving my master is my duty. I don't want any credit, I just want to continue serving my master."

Rong Zhen frowned slightly. "Yu Shu, you should know my rules. I don't need female subordinates, and you are not my subordinate."

Yu Shu looked dejected. "I thought that from the day I set foot in the Moon Kingdom, the Prince had tacitly agreed to let me be your subordinate. It turns out that my efforts over the past two years haven't even earned me the opportunity to work by the Prince's side..."

“Yu Shu, you should know that I did not intend for you to go to the Yue Kingdom as a spy back then. It was you who said that you had to go to avenge your father, so I agreed.” Rong Zhen interrupted her.

Yu Shu smiled bitterly, "Yes, I went to the Moon Kingdom willingly. Now that I have killed my enemy, I should not expect anything more. It is Yu Shu who has overstepped her bounds."

Rong Zhen had already seen Yun Wei outside the door, and his expression softened slightly. "You may leave."

Yu Shu also saw Yun Wei, bit her lip, and said, "Yu Shu will take her leave now."

As she brushed past Yun Wei, she paused for a moment, then walked away as if nothing had happened.

Yunwei glanced at her retreating figure, stepped into the study, and asked, "What happened?"

Rong Zhen frowned and explained, "She is the daughter of one of my former subordinates. My subordinate sacrificed himself in the war against the Yue Kingdom. That war was launched by Emperor Zhaoxing, so Yu Shu has always regarded Emperor Zhaoxing as an enemy. Two years ago, when she learned that I was going to plant a spy in the Yue Kingdom, she volunteered to be that spy and avenge her father."

I disagreed, so she drugged the spy I had chosen and went in his place. When I found out, I rushed to intercept her, but she was determined and asked me not to stop her from avenging her father, so I let her be.

Upon hearing this, Yunwei finally understood. "I see. Then why was she crying just now?"

"After being away for two years, it's inevitable to feel emotional upon returning to my homeland," Rong Zhen said.

Upon hearing this, Yun Wei glanced at him and said, "I think she's agitated because she saw you, right?"

Rong Zhen said unhappily, "Don't talk nonsense!"

"I'm not making this up. She doesn't even want credit; she just wants to stay by your side. Isn't that obvious?" Yun Wei said meaningfully.

Rong Zhen raised his hand and rubbed his temples. "I never use female subordinates, and I would never agree to let her stay. Don't overthink it."

“What good will it do if you disagree? After all, she served Emperor Zhaoxing for two years for the sake of Wei, making a great sacrifice. She just wants to be your subordinate, and you disagree. If word gets out, it will probably discourage the people under your command.” Yun Wei frowned.

She felt that Yu Shu would not let the matter rest.

As a woman herself, she knew what Yu Shu was planning to do.

But Rong Zhen was her fiancé, and she felt unhappy that he was being coveted by another woman.

"It's alright, don't overthink it. I'll recommend her for credit. She should be content with the credit she's earned," Rong Zhen said firmly.

Seeing that he had a plan, Yunwei didn't say anything more.

"By the way, I'll be hosting a welcome banquet for my senior brothers at the county princess's mansion tomorrow. You should come too."

"Okay," Rong Zhen agreed.

……

The following day, Yunwei hosted a welcome banquet for Mu Tianji's family at the county magistrate's residence.

When Mu Tianji's family was brought to the county princess's residence, they learned that Yun Wei had been granted the title of Rong'an County Princess and was engaged to Regent Rong Zhen.

The men Rong Zhen sent to pick them up were very tight-lipped; they didn't reveal any information to them along the way, so they were unaware of the matter.

"Weiwei, what's wrong with you..." Mu Tianji looked at Yun Wei, hesitating to speak.

Yunwei knew what he wanted to say and smiled, "Rong Zhen is different from others."

Upon hearing this, Mu Tianji smiled and said, "How is it different? Back in Yue Kingdom, many people pursued you, including some members of the royal family, but you ignored them all. I thought you disliked members of the royal family."

“I do hate those royal children, but Rong Zhen is different. He doesn’t have any of their vices,” Yun Wei explained.

"Anyone who can catch the eye of my aunt must have something extraordinary about them," said Mu Qingcang, Mu Tianji's eldest son, jokingly.

“Isn’t that obvious? He’s the regent of Wei, so naturally he has extraordinary abilities. And don’t forget, our family was able to get out of this mess thanks to him. Although I’ve never met him, I’ve heard so much about him,” the second son, Mu Qinghao, said with a smile.

"I really want to see what my future uncle looks like, so that my high-minded aunt would take a liking to him," Mu Tianji's youngest daughter, Mu Qingxue, chimed in.

Listening to the three siblings discussing Rong Zhen, Yunwei felt like crying. "He doesn't have three heads and six arms. He's just a normal person. You don't need to be so curious about him."

Madam Mu smiled and took her hand, saying, "You are such a blessed girl."

Upon hearing this, Yunwei recalled the three years she had spent married to Li Yaoting.

After thinking about it, she decided to tell them that she had been married once before.

The Mu family will be staying in the capital for a long time, and they will definitely hear about her from other people.

If that's the case, she might as well tell them herself.

Mu Tianji and the others were astonished. "You were married and then divorced?" After a long while, Mu Tianji finally found his voice.

"Yes." Yun Wei replied frankly.

Although those three years were a waste of time, she didn't find them particularly shameful.

Because it's a fact, and it can't be erased.

Of course, if she could go back three years, she definitely wouldn't marry that scumbag Li Yaoting.

"Does the Regent know about this?" Madam Mu asked cautiously.

"I know, everyone in the capital knows," Yun Wei said nonchalantly.

Upon hearing this, Mu Tianji and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

Since Rong Zhen knows this, he must be able to accept her past.

Knowing that she had been married before, Rong Zhen was still willing to marry her, which shows that he was sincere towards Yun Wei.

Thinking of this, the Mu family felt happy for Yunwei again.

"Your child, you've finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel," Madam Mu said sincerely, patting Yunwei's hand.

“Master Aunt, I’m even more curious about Master Aunt’s husband now. He must be a magnanimous and good man,” Mu Qingxue praised.

Yun Wei chuckled, but then, thinking of Rong Zhen, she nodded, "Yes, he is indeed broad-minded."

Upon hearing this, Mu Tianji seemed to be deep in thought.

A moment later, Xuanyuan Jing arrived.

Yunwei specially invited her over.

She was, after all, a citizen of Yue Kingdom. Although she was a princess, she would feel a sense of familiarity upon seeing Mu Tianji and the others in a foreign land.

Upon seeing her arrival, Mu Tianji and his family immediately bowed to her.

Xuanyuan Jing quickly took two steps and stopped them.

"This is not the Moon Kingdom, you don't need to bow."

"Thank you, Princess." Mu Tianji and the others had no choice but to give up.

Xuan Yuanjing's gaze swept over the whole family, and she was very happy. "It's so good that you're here. Now I'll have someone to keep me company."

Upon hearing this, Mu Tianji asked, "What, is the princess not returning to the Yue Kingdom?"

"I'm not going back. I'm going to find the prince consort here," Xuan Yuanjing said frankly.

"Really, Your Highness?" Mu Qingxue asked excitedly.

“Of course it’s true.” Xuan Yuanjing grasped her hand.

Seeing how approachable she was, Mu Qingxue was pleased and took her hand in return.

She used to think that the princess was aloof and unapproachable, but today she discovered that the princess was not as unapproachable as she had imagined.

Not long after, Rong Zhen arrived at the county princess's residence with Cui Shao and Rong Xue.

"Uncle-in-law, you're so handsome! No wonder my aunt took a liking to you!" Mu Qingxue exclaimed upon seeing Rong Zhen.

Yun Wei: "..."

It's as if she only fell for Rong Zhen because of his good looks.

"Xue'er, don't be rude!" Mu Tianji scolded.

Rong Zhen was pleased by Mu Qingxue's address of "Master Uncle," glanced at Yun Wei, and then said gently, "It's alright."

Mu Tianji breathed a sigh of relief.

Rong Xue, who was standing next to Rong Zhen, couldn't help but glance at Mu Qingxue.

He had heard that the Yue Kingdom was open-minded, but he didn't expect it to be this open. Even though they were related, it was not appropriate to speak to a man he had just met like that.
Mu Qingxue noticed someone staring at her, turned her head, and saw a young man with rosy lips and white teeth. She immediately curled her lip and said, "A boy with feminine features, sissy!"

Rong Xue was stunned for a moment, then, after realizing what she meant, she was about to explode, "Who are you calling sissy?"

Startled, Mu Qingxue hid behind Yun Wei and muttered, "Isn't it obvious who they're talking about?"

Rong Xue was furious. She grabbed Rong Zhen's sleeve and said, "Uncle, she humiliated your nephew!"
