Chapter 087: Zhang’s Frantic (Second Shift) (1 / 2)

“Old Madame is seeking help for Mu Zixi.” Mu Zi Yan sneered.

“Helpers,” Bi Yun’s face was puzzled, only feeling that the old madam’s mind was really hard to guess.

Yunxiang looked at Bi Yun and continued, “The old madam wanted to use the second miss to deal with the eldest miss and the second madam, however, she was worried that the second miss was not a match for the eldest miss, so that’s why she wanted to find a helper.”

“This fourth young miss is capable of this” Bi Yun, however, did not believe it.

“I would like to see what the fourth sister can do.” Mu Zi Yan hooked her lips and smiled lightly, “It seems that this palace banquet must be very exciting.”

“Eldest Miss, the second young master has already entered the city and will arrive in about half an hour.” Yunxiang whispered back.

Mu Ziyan’s almond eyes turned slightly, as if thinking of something, “He entered the city late at night and was able to come in”

“What Missy means is,” Yun Xiang also heard the deep meaning in Mu Zi Yan’s words.

“It seems that this second brother of mine is an uncomplicated one.”

Amazing country, there is a curfew order, therefore, a day after the second night, the street in addition to beat the night watch, patrolling soldiers Yamen, may not come out to walk around, otherwise all according to the thieves arrested, if you want to go into the city, must be to carry a token.

This token is also divided into levels, the ten families within the Marquis, each family has a piece, and the Marquis of Mu’s token since the big house in this place, that Mu Ling Rui and who took the token into the it!

Seeing Mu Ziyan in deep thought, Yunxiang then said, “Eldest Miss, there is also a woman who entered the city along with the second young master.”

“It seems that this woman’s identity is not ordinary.” Mu Zi Yan said faintly.

“Eldest Miss, the second young master entered the city with her carriage, and that woman is County Lord Mingan.” Yunxiang frowned slightly as she mentioned this County Lord Mingan.

“Who am I supposed to be? It turns out to be the renowned County Lord Ming An.” Mu Zi Yan smiled along with it and said in a low voice, “This second brother of mine isn’t small in his abilities, to be able to get County Lord Ming An to open the way for him, he is indeed capable.”

Bi Yun to hear the face of County Lord Ming An changed, then said, “Miss, this County Lord Ming An is not gone to the fiefdom, how can it come back.”

Speaking of this Mingan County, really a number of oddballs, as the daughter of the current emperor’s younger brother Liang Wang, since childhood has been appointed to the county, is also considered a set of thousands of favorites in one, but a troublemaker of the Lord, three years ago, at a palace banquet on the lookout for a small country to come to worship the prince, that night, they sought to go to the prince’s couch, that the prince is not willing to, and the two had a dispute, Mingan County, in a fit of anger, it will be this! The two of them had an argument, and in a fit of rage, Princess Mingan killed the prince.

The royal son of a small country has a lower status than the son of a family in the Great Amazing Country, not to mention the fact that County Princess Ming An is the most favored daughter of the Cool King.

After the emperor knew about this matter, he was furious, but also because of the relationship between the cool king, can not be handed over to that small country Mingan County, but also can not explicitly protect, she will be sent to the barren northern wilderness, and rewarded a lot of gold, silver, silk and satin, cattle, horses and horses, cloth, the small country is dependent on the great Amazing country, even if the heart of the gas, but compared to the big country as a gift of compensation for the reward of the rich items, the sacrifice of a district of the Prince, and the What’s the point?

This matter then came to an end, and the reputation of this Ming An county princess was also spread out.

“For County Lord Ming An to come this time, it’s a surprise to me.” Mu Zi Yan laughed lowly, “However, when did second brother become so familiar with County Lord Ming An”

Bi Yun sized up Mu Zi Yan and then dropped her gaze on Yun Xiang’s body.

“County Lord Ming’an is now eighteen, already past the age of marriage, I think that the Liang King is in a hurry, that’s why he recalled County Lord Ming’an.” Yunxiang said carefully.

“This cousin of mine has just passed the year of the weak crown, and now also has seventeen, according to reason this year is to participate in the imperial examinations, but has been outside to study, but it makes me puzzled.” Qi Xuan and Mu Lingrui are of similar age, while Mu Lingrui has been studying outside all these years, Mu Ziyan has another kind of guess, studying is afraid to be the second thing.

Mu Zi Yan let out a low chuckle, the tip of her eyebrows crossing a flash of ghostly light, “Everything will wait until he enters the residence, depending on who he goes to greet first.”

Bi Yun pondered the meaning of Mu Zi Yan’s words and responded indistinctly, “What the eldest miss said is true.”

Mu Zi Yan laughed lowly and said, “It’s better to rest early, tomorrow morning I’m afraid there will be a lively look.”

“Yes.” Bi Yun went up with a smile, “Eldest Miss, slave girl serves you to broaden your clothes.”

Mu Zi Yan laughed lowly, “You girl, you’re resourceful at this time.”

Bi Yun’s brows were all joyful, “Slave girls love to get together.”

That night, Mu Lingrui dusty rushed back to Mu Houfu, did not alarm anyone, but went straight back to his own yard head.

Inside the Long Pine courtyard, the old lady has not yet rested, seemingly waiting for someone.

From the grandmother came forward, followed by a fluttering young man, eyebrows through a few points of cold, looks and Mu Jingran has seven points like, he was wearing a black cloak, at the moment into the house, the cloak will be removed.

She took it from the Sister with a raised hand, and waited for the teenager to enter the inner room before she hung her head and stepped back.

“Grandchildren greet grandmother,” the voice seemed to still have a bit of cold, but it was very calm.

Compared to Mu Qingran, he was indeed more blue than blue.

The old lady looked at Mu Lingrui, who hadn’t seen her for a year, and smiled amiably, “This child of yours, you’ve just come back, why don’t you take a rest?”

“Grandchildren miss their grandmother, so they rushed over with bated breath.” Mu Ling Rui also revealed the gentle smile of the old madam, and then stepped forward to let the old madam see more clearly.

The old madam nodded slightly, “You have grown a bit taller, your skin is a bit darker, but you are very spirited.”

Mu Lingrui laughed, “It is true that it is still grandmother who loves her grandson.”

“You child, grandmother loves you the most since.” The old madam waved at him.

Mu Ling Rui stepped forward some more, bending down and letting the old lady take a look.

When the old madam saw that he was so well-behaved, her heart was ironed, and she said with a smile, “This time, when you come back, you will not leave.”

“Grandson listens to grandmother.” Mu Ling Rui also smiled and answered.

“Good, good.” The old madam said two good words in a row, obviously very satisfied with Mu Lingrui.

“Grandmother, how have you been,” Mu Lingrui’s eyes overflowed with concern.

The old madam whispered, “The body and bones are still quite strong, but nowadays there are many troubles within the house, although you have come back, but you should also be more careful.”

“Sun’er understands.” Mu Lingrui answered in a low voice, never mentioning Zhang’s and Mu Zixi’s affairs from the beginning, and after exchanging a few pleasantries with the old madam, he left Changsong courtyard.

From Sister personally escorted him out through the secret passageway before entering the inner room, “Old Lady, the most important person in the Second Young Master’s heart is still you.”

The old madam’s eyes crossed a flash of ghostly light, “He’s a smart one and knows who to be close to in order to achieve great things.”

From Sister hurriedly agreed, “Old Lady is extremely right.”

The next morning, Mu Zi Yan is to go to the Qi’s good morning, to enter the Jiyue courtyard, they saw Mu Lingxuan is also in, she smiled up, “brother has been sticking to the mother in the past few days, the mother does not love me.”

Mu Lingxuan said in a warm voice, “You girl, you’re getting less and less decent.”

“Isn’t what my sister said right,” Mu Zi Yan’s mouth turned away, tilting her head and winking at Mu Ling Xuan.

Mu Lingxuan knew what she was playing at, and then said, “Alright, got it.”

“It’s still brother who loves me the most.” Mu Zi Yan rushed forward and tugged on Mu Ling Xuan’s sleeve, smiling extraordinarily brightly.

Qi saw her like this and snorted coldly, “Yes, the one who loves you the most is your brother, and I, your mother, will have to step aside.”

Mu Zi Yan rushed forward and snuggled into Qi’s arms, “Mother, you and brother love me the most.”

“Well, don’t sell yourself short.” Qi looks down at her, “Tomorrow’s palace banquet, I can’t go, this palace is not like the marquis house, you have to be careful.”

“Mother, although this palace is not often traveled, it has been there, daughter will be careful.” Mu Zi Yan knew that Qi was worried that the old lady would trip up at that time, so she said in a low voice.

“Also, you can wait for your two cousins at the palace gates first tomorrow.” Qi whispered, “Don’t walk around alone.”

“Yes, daughter took note.” When Mu Zi Yan saw Qi say so, she listened attentively.

To be from Qi’s house head out, Zhong Hui live in the courtyard demolished, Mu Lingxuan these days will move back to the former residence of the courtyard, and Qi’s Jiyueyuan is very close to him and Mu Ziyan together out of the courtyard, the two are walking on the trail.

“Last night, the Capital Zhaoyin was assassinated.” Mu Lingxuan looked at her, “You sent someone to secretly protect him”

“It seems that nothing can be hidden from brother.” Mu Zi Yan admitted frankly.

“Luckily, you were cautious, otherwise, I’m afraid that Senior Zhang would have been in pieces by now.” Mu Lingxuan continued, “What should you do about this matter”

“Since the Zhong Family did it, they have to bear the consequences.” Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly, “Rather, I can take this opportunity to give them a good beating.”

“Since.” Mu Lingxuan said in a low voice, “This matter sister will leave it to brother.”

“Good.” Mu Zi Yan responded with a smile, obviously knowing that Mu Lingxuan already had an idea.

The two siblings had a good conversation, so they dispersed.

Mu Lingxuan also went out of Marquis Mu’s mansion, and then went to the government office of Jingzhao Yin.

Zhang Zong thought about last night’s assassination and was still furious with a gloomy face.

Seeing him like this, Niangzi Lu said in a low voice, “You’re so angry, but it’s only because important evidence has been stolen.”

“Hmph.” Zhang Zong said in a deep voice, “This Zhong Houfu is also too rampant.”

Niangzi Lu continued, “Since this physical evidence is gone, it is best to find other physical evidence today.”

“Where is it so easy.” Zhang Zong was annoyed when he thought about the fire in the scroll room last night, which almost burned down the entire scroll room.

Lv Niangzi is aware that Zhang Zong regarded those volumes as life, absolutely not allowed to be destroyed in the slightest, fortunately found in time, only burned some, otherwise, Zhang Zong at this moment is afraid to have led the people directly towards the Zhong Houfu rushed up.

Outside came the voice of a scholar boy, “Master, Mu Shizi is outside seeking an audience.”

“Mu Shi Zi” Zhang Zong slightly stunned, which barely will be the fire gas pressure down, thought last night is not Miss Mu sent people secretly protect, afraid of today’s morning, see is his Zhang Zong’s body, and was burned out of the dossier.

Seeing that he gradually suppressed his anger, Niangzi Lu continued, “Cutting Mu Shizi a long wait, I think Mu Shizi has something to say.”

“En.” Zhang Zong nodded his head and responded.

Then they personally got up and went out of the house to meet Mu Lingxuan, to be together inside, sitting with the hall, Mu Lingxuan also does not beat around the bush, after taking a seat, said in a warm voice, “Mr. Zhang, this time to come, I also will be this thing to Mr. Zhang.”

With that, Mu Lingxuan took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Zhang Zong with both hands.

Zhang Zong raised his hand to receive it, then unfolded it, and after reading it, his eyes flashed with a bright light, “This is really timely.”

Mu Lingxuan said in a low voice, “Don’t worry, Senior Zhang, this letter is by no means a forgery, and it’s unique, only you and I know about it in this world.”

“In that case, thank you, Mu Shizi.” Zhang Zong took the letterhead and carefully kept it safe, this could be more powerful than the evidence that Marquis Zhong had sent to burn last night.

When Mu Lingxuan saw how excited Zhang Zong was, his eyes also flashed with a gentle light, and then he chatted for a few moments and turned around to leave the courthouse.

Seeing how happy he was, Niangzi Lu asked in a low voice, “Is this letter really that important?”

“Since.” Zhang Zong whispered, “If Marquis Zhong dares to burn my scroll room, I will pull off a few of his hairs.”

When Niangzi Lu saw him speak in a deep voice, she whispered, “When did you become so vindictive as well”

“Hmph.” Zhang Zong coldly said, “I was just returning the favor, I almost lost my life last night.”

Niangzi Lu was just making a casual joke, and found it amusing to think that the mute Zhang Zong also had moments of such anger.

Inside Marquis Zhong’s mansion, Zhong Xuan looked at the black shadowed man kneeling on the ground in front of her with a somber expression, gently waving her sleeve hem, “Failed in your mission, and you still dare to come back”

The man in black didn’t dare to make a sound, then he drew his sword and stabbed it into his own chest, dying at her heels.

Zhong Xuan’s eyes narrowed as a cold, chilling light shot out, “Mu Zi Yan, I really underestimated you.”

She then ordered the dead black-clothed man to be dragged down, while she got up and went to Marquis Zhong’s study.

When Marquis Zhong saw Zhong Xuan coming, he immediately grabbed the ink stone on the desk and smashed it straight at her, Zhong Xuan naturally didn’t dare to dodge, and was instantly smashed in the arm, with a large amount of ink stained on her dress, she said in a low voice, “Father, this matter can still be salvaged.”

“Redeeming” Marquis Zhong snorted coldly, “how to redeem Zhang Zong must be aware of last night’s assassination of him is the Marquis of Zhong for, if it is to the emperor passed a fold, participate in my book, Marquis of Zhong is afraid to eat a pocket to go.”

Zhong Xuan said in a low voice, “Father, don’t be anxious, although the assassination of Zhang Zong was unsuccessful, however, I ordered someone to burn his volume room, and the physical evidence he collected has already been destroyed.”

“Really,” Marquis Zhong’s expression, which had been grimly terrifying just a moment ago, suddenly became softer at this moment.

Zhong Xuan continued, “Exactly.”

“I just received news just now that Mu Lingxuan went to the Beijing Zhaoyin Yamen.” Marquis Zhong spoke with a grave expression.

“My daughter has also been informed of this, therefore, I still need to make a nightly visit to the Beijing Zhaoyin Yamen this day.” Zhong Xuan said in a low voice.

“If you make another mistake, you’ll go back to the manor.” Marquis Zhong droned in a deep voice.

“Yes.” Zhong Xuan answered and turned around, then left the study.

Looking down at his ink covered body, his eyes shattered out a cold light, and he went back to his own courtyard.

Mu Ling Rui came back to appear extraordinarily low-key, in addition to that night to see the old lady once, the next day went to see the chapter, to be out of the face of the heavy, but also up to the sky and sighed a long sigh.

Mu Zi Yan did not know that last night Mu Ling Rui went to the old lady’s place, now listening to Yunxiang report, said Mu Ling Rui first went to the Zhang’s place, and then went to the old lady to ask for good health, but Mu Zi Yan felt that Mu Ling Rui’s heart, more important is the old lady.

Since Zhang’s courtyard came out, that look was too pretentious.

“What is the movement at the Marquis Zhong’s place,” Mu Zi Yan continued to ask.

“Back to the eldest miss, the situation inside cannot be probed and is not known.” Yunxiang truthfully replied.

“Whenever there is any movement within the Marquis Mu residence, the Zhong family will know it like the back of their hand.” Mu Zi Yan let out a cold smile, looked at Yun Xiang and said, “This place in the big room, no one is allowed to come near, and no one is allowed to leak out any information.”

“Yes.” Rue Xiang answered in a low voice, and then went to order.

Bi Yun carefully opened her mouth at the side, “Eldest Miss, you said that the Zhong family didn’t succeed last night, will they do it again?”

“Will.” Mu Zi Yan was more or less clear about Zhong Xuan’s nature, she had always been confident, and could not tolerate failure

“Big Zhang Da Ren’s place,” Biyun followed suit, worried.

“Will be a trick.” Mu Zi Yan sneered.

As the sky was getting dark and Mu Lingxuan had not yet returned, Mu Ziyan accompanied Qi to have dinner and then returned to the courtyard.

Bi Yun hurried back, “Eldest Miss, Second Miss just returned to the house.”
