Chapter 095 – Teaching Mu Zixi (Second Shift) (1 / 2)
by Jessie@AFNCCWhen she returned to the Beijing Zhaoyin’s government office, Mu Ziyan got off the carriage and turned her eyes to look at Niangzi Lu and Cui Yunran, “It’s getting late, I should return to the house as well.”
“Smokey ah, why don’t you stay at the government office tonight.” Zhang Zong hurriedly stepped forward and said.
“No.” Mu Lingxuan stepped forward and flatly refused, “How can sister stay at the government office”
Zhang Zong looked at Mu Zi Yan, “Smokey, what do you say”
Mu Zi Yan see Zhang Zong this is determined to let her to investigate this case clearly, she outside contemplation for a moment, gently shook his head, “not, I a girl who has not been out of love to stay in the government office in what behavior”
Zhang Zong gave a cold snort, this time he was talking about decency, then he also stopped pestering, and then said, “Naturally, then I will return to Mu Houfu together with Smokey.”
Mu Lingxuan was a bit puzzled, “Senior Zhang, it’s not right”
“What’s wrong with that,” Zhang Zong looked at Mu Lingxuan, “Don’t forget, Mu Shizi, you’re a suspect now.”
Mu Lingxuan saw Zhang Zong’s look of undying determination, “Even so, I’ll stay at the government office.”
Mu Zi Yan saw that Zhang Zong was at loggerheads with his brother and the two of them, the corner of his mouth hooked up a faint smile, “The case is quite complicated, I have to think about it, and Senior Zhang also think about it.”
Zhang Zongmi nodded slightly, “Alright then, I’ll go back early tomorrow morning.”
Mu Zi Yan sighed helplessly, “I say, Lord Zhang, I’m not your magistrate.”
“I know, but you are my friend.” Zhang Zong said very seriously, “It’s natural to be two for two for a friend.”
“It’s okay to make up a knife, but it’s not okay to stick a knife in.” Mu Zi Yan whispered, “Tomorrow I will personally come to a totaled it”
“That’s fine.” Zhang Zong saw that Mu Zi Yan had compromised, and then he answered.
Mu Zi Yan turned to look at Cui Yun Ran, “Cousin Yun Ran, it’s getting late, you should also return to the residence early to rest.”
“Then Smokey sister, I’ll come tomorrow.” Cui Yunran said as she looked towards Mu Zi Yan.
“This” Mu Zi Yan turned her eyes to look at Zhang Zong, “I don’t know what Senior Zhang thinks”
“Second Miss Cui is the victim, so she is the one who should come.” Zhang Zong spoke coldly.
Mu Zi Yan gently nodded, “Since that’s the case, dark now that it’s getting late, let’s disperse separately and come back tomorrow.”
“Good.” Only then did Zhang Zong let go.
Mu Zi Yan stepped forward, “Lord Zhang lends a hand.”
“En.” Zhang Zong then took a few steps forward along with Mu Zi Yan.
Chapter Staffer saw that Mu Zi Yan had treated him as a dispensable existence since the beginning, he just smiled and looked at Mu Zi Yan’s pair of watery eyes, which at the moment were flashing with a spiritual and deceitful light.
When Qi Xuan saw that Staffer had been staring at Mu Zi Yan, he once again stepped in front of Staffer and faintly opened his lips, “Staffer, you’d better not get any ideas.”
“I’m just curious, why are you so tense” the Chapter Staffer spoke faintly, “She’s just a little girl, even if she has a mind, that’ll have to wait until she opens up a bit more.”
Staffer is indeed curious about Mu Zi Yan and has no other thoughts, but seeing Qi Xuan so nervous, he has guessed Qi Xuan’s mind, so he finds it more and more interesting.
Mu Lingxuan saw the Staffer’s eyes within the cunning, he is more or less understanding of the Staffer, this person is extremely deep, compared to the Marquis of the chapter, he was able to spy on the future situation of the court as early as possible, and then stood in the faction of the three emperors, it is sufficient to show that this person is very keen on the situation, and there is also a boldness.
Mu Zi Yan said with Zhang Zong, “Senior Zhang is so active this day, what exactly is the reason”
Zhang Zong looked at Mu Zi Yan with lowered eyes and said with a low smile, “I just want to solve the case as quickly as possible.”
“Elder Zhang is testing me,” Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly as she opened her lips in a low voice.
“How dare I.” Zhang Zong hurriedly defended, “I was just wondering if Smokey’s judgment was the same as mine.”
Mu Zi Yan nodded slightly before saying, “We’ll see tomorrow.”
“Good.” Only then did Zhang Zong put his heart down, and then the two of them walked over.
Mu Zi Yan saw Qi Xuan blocking the Staffer’s path, she looked past Qi Xuan to the Staffer, and saw him looking at her with a smile on his face, Mu Zi Yan felt that such a smile was too weird, some people, once they are interested in someone, will definitely show such a smile, and often the deep meaning of such a smile
Mu Zi Yan looked at Qi Xuan, “Cousin, are you going to Marquis Mu’s residence”
Qi Xuan nodded slightly, “First, I’ll send you back to the Mu Hou Mansion, then I’ll go back.”
“Good.” Mu Zi Yan smiled and answered, then she turned towards Cui Yun Ran and said, “I’ll send cousin Yun Ran back to the mansion first.”
“Many thanks to Sister Smokey.” Cui Yunran whispered.
Chapter Staffer followed without a word, and when Mu Ziyan saw that he did not have the intention to leave of his own accord, she then stepped forward, “Zhang Shizi this is”
“Since I was the one who invited Cousin Zi Yan to Marquis Cui’s residence, I must personally send Cousin Zi Yan back to the residence.” Staffer said unhurriedly, as if he had found a way to say it early on.
Mu Zi Yan didn’t know the purpose of Chapter Staffer, since he was willing to follow then follow, and then said, “Just right, these days the second sister’s body is not feeling well, Zhang Shizi can also go to take a look.”
As soon as the chapter staffer heard Mu Zixi’s name, her brows uncontrollably furrowed lightly before she smiled and said, “This may be inconvenient, I’ll just send Cousin Ziyan to the mansion.”
Mu Ziyan tilted her head, a little puzzled, the previous chapter Staffer’s attitude toward Mu Zixi is not this ah, is there something she does not know
Commenting on the report, she didn’t panic when she looked at her, but let her look at her.
“Sister.” When Mu Lingxuan saw Mu Zi Yan staring straight at the Chapter Staffer, he couldn’t help but remind her.
Staffer and Qi Xuan two people, a jade tree, through an untamed, a gentle and elegant, through a Shujuan chivalry, the two people sex is also the opposite, so now look at this, is more than a few points of discord.
Mu Zi Yan gradually collected her thoughts and looked at him calmly, “Since that’s the case, then I would like to thank Zhang Shi Zi.”
Chapter Staffer saw her frankly gazing at himself, did not have a daughter-like shyness, that look is also light, but he felt that this girl’s bones through the different from the age of the deep, to be able to do this calm and unruffled, but need to be cultivated, it is clear that Mu Zi Yan’s behavior has caused his curiosity.
But it’s also just curiosity.
However, Staffer does not know that a person who is interested in another person, and then trapped in the inextricable, at the very beginning of a momentary curiosity, and by the time he realizes this truth, he has also fallen into a deep hole.
Qi Xuan frowned, at this moment, he showed extreme dissatisfaction, seeing that Mu Zi Yan had already gotten into the carriage, he turned his eyes to stare at Zhang Staffer with cold eyes.
Chanticleer raised an unimpressed eyebrow before dashingly rolling onto his horse.
Mu Lingxuan stepped forward and patted Qi Xuan’s shoulder, “You’re too nervous.”
Qi Xuan was slightly stunned, and also knew that he was acting too nervous, however, only he knew how scared he was.
Mu Zi Yan then got on the carriage with Cui Yun Ran, while saying goodbye to Niangzi Lu, she then left the Beijing Zhaoyin Yamen again.
“Cousin Yun Ran, but remembered what was wrong last night,” Mu Zi Yan asked in a low voice.
Cui Yunran blushed slightly and spoke unnaturally, “No.”
When Mu Zi Yan saw her like this, she didn’t ask any more questions, and waited until she sent Cui Yun Ran back to Marquis Cui’s residence, then she went back to Marquis Mu’s residence.
When they got out of the carriage, Zhang Staffer and Qi Xuan followed.
Mu Zi Yan blessed herself towards the two, “Cousin, Zhang Shizi, and go back.”
“I’ll go to the government office tomorrow.” Qi Xuan and the Chapter Staffer, however, said in unison.
“Good.” Mu Zi Yan knew that these two were never people who gave up halfway, and after following halfway this day, they would not give up until they got the result.
Mu Zi Yan and Mu Ling Xuan entered the mansion together, and Qi Xuan then mounted his horse, arching his hand and saying, “Farewell.”
“Farewell.” Seeing Qi Xuan leave like this, the Staffer hooked his lips and smiled, not realizing that the always calm and self-contained Qi Shi Zi would also have such moments of nervousness.
Mu Lingxuan rarely revealed a smug smile, Mu Zi Yan since she sensed his mood at the moment, turned her eyes to look at him, “Brother, what are you smiling about”
“Happy.” Mu Lingxuan smiled more and more brightly.
“You’re a suspect nowadays, this is not something to be happy about.” The corner of Mu Zi Yan’s mouth turned away, but she didn’t know what exactly Mu Lingxuan was laughing at.
Mu Lingxuan laughed lowly and said, “Sister, the day after tomorrow is your birthday, if you don’t solve this case tomorrow, how can you have a happy birthday the day after tomorrow”
Mu Zi Yan stopped walking, saw Mu Ling Xuan look like he had nothing to do with it, blinked and said, “Brother, how did it become my sister’s business?”
“Brother’s matter is naturally sister’s matter.” Mu Lingxuan said, his warm palm covered the top of her head, and then gestured in front of his chest, “In two years you will be an adult.”
The corner of Mu Zi Yan’s mouth twitched, her brother’s words made her a little helpless, she was not only an adult, but also a thousand year old ghost, but she only secretly slandered a little, for her brother’s feelings, she felt that there was another deep meaning.
“Brother, you have something to say” Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes, her almond eyes clear and soulful, just looking at him like this.
“Brother is happy to have such an excellent sister like you.” Mu Lingxuan smiled and opened his mouth, then he walked forward.
Mu Zi Yan stood in front of the hanging flower gate, looking at his handsome back, the corner of her mouth hooked into a faint smile, turning her eyes to look at Yunxiang and Bi Yun, “Let’s go.”
“Eldest Miss, Old Madame has returned to the mansion.” Yunxiang carefully followed over and whispered back.
“When did you come back,” Mu Zi Yan’s smile gradually tightened at the corners of her mouth.
“Half an hour earlier than you.” Yun Xiang looked at Mu Zi Yan’s complexion, and then said, “That Yun Ying Temple’s Abbot’s Dharma name, Void.”
“En.” Mu Zi Yan did have the impression that in her previous life, Yun Ying Temple was a temple in the capital that had a great deal of incense, and Abbot Void passed away after the Third Prince ascended to the throne.
Mu Zi Yan felt that the things in her past life, it seems that there are still a lot of hidden things that she is not aware of, and it is not as simple as it seems on the surface.
After returning to the Smoke Fall Courtyard, she rested her exhaustion and changed into a comfortable and soft long dress, her green silk was only tied with a ribbon, and then she leaned back on the soft couch and began to recall the events of this day.
According to Lady Zhanghou’s words, there was an extraordinary relationship between the old madam and Abbot Void, so what was it?
The Empress declared her to enter the palace, is it just a matter of pleasantries?
CuiYunRan’s thing is even more so that she is puzzled, she really was abused last night. The abuse but, Mu Zi Yan just measured her, see her neck did not have a hickey, and revealed a section of the white wrist is also white as jade, especially before going to the murder scene, she squatted on the ground to look at the ants, obviously see her secretly move backward to take away a thing.
Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly, “Last night, Cui Yun Ran was definitely innocent, so why did she frame her brother? Use her own reputation to send her brother to the Yellow Springs at any cost or use it as blackmail to marry her brother”
However, after she went to Marquis Cui’s residence, her attitude turned sharply, and she was afraid that her purpose was more than that, so what was it?
What was the real cause of Shuanglan’s death?
She frowned tightly, in a rather grave mood.
Yuexi Courtyard, Cailian learned that Zhang Shizi had sent the eldest young lady back to the house, so she hastened to tell Mu Zixi about the letter.
After Mu Zixi heard this, she was even more furious, “Cousin entered the mansion without even coming to see me, why did he send big sister back to the mansion”
“This slave girl doesn’t know.” Cailian whispered back.
For the western suburbs of the murder, this matter involves Mu Lingxuan and Marquis Cui, Zhang Zong did not publicize, so now in addition to Mu Zi Yan a few people know, the rest of the people do not know.
Mu Zi Ruoxi was jealous when she thought that the Staffer had personally sent Mu Zi Yan back to her residence, and her eyes were filled with thick jealousy, “Cousin is mine, and no one is allowed to snatch him away from me.”
As long as Mu Zixi can remember, she has known that she was going to marry the Staffer after she grew up, which may have been the default of the Zhang Clan and the Zhang Marquis at the time, so in Mu Zixi’s consciousness, she had already decided that she would be the master of the Zhang Marquis, and would be the Staffer’s wife, and that she would not allow anyone else to covet the Staffer, especially Mu Ziyan.
The old madam returned to the Long Pine Courtyard, looked a little gloomy, tiredly entered the inner room, simply washed up, and then rested on her own.
From what Sister knew, the Old Lady was like this every time she came back from Yun Ying Temple, so she quietly withdrew to the inner room.
Early the next morning, news came from the Long Pine Courtyard that the old madam was seriously ill.
Mu Zi Yan was visibly stunned, and rushed to the Long Pine Courtyard after cleaning up some since.
From Sister stood by with a grave expression, and after Mu Ziyan entered, she bridged the bridge to see that the old lady looked haggard and her spirit was not good.
Mu Zi Yan stepped forward and blessed herself, “Smokey greets her grandmother”
“So it’s Smoke Girl ah.” The old madam coughed lightly a few times, this time but not pretending, it looks like she is really sick, “Sickness comes like a mountain, my body and bones ah, I’m afraid it’s not good.”
Mu Zixi also rushed over and saw the old lady like this, wiping her tears and standing aside.
Seeing Mu Zixi like this, the old madam sighed quietly, “Ruoxi girl, come here.”
“Yes.” Mu Zixi obediently stepped forward and called out in a low voice, “Grandmother.”
“Hey.” The old lady sighed quietly.
Mu Zi Yan looked at the scene in front of her, only felt it was a great irony, Mu Qing Ran was not her own son, but she was acting out this grandparent-grandson love with Mu Zi Ruoxi in front of herself, what the old madam was trying to do, it was obvious, she was trying to make Mu Zi Ruoxi stay in the Mu Hou House.
Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly, to make Mu Zi Ruoxi stay, don’t even think about it, she was about to open her mouth when she saw that the old madam was already panting and grabbing Mu Zi Ruoxi’s hand.
Seeing this, Sister From hurriedly called in Doctor Zhang, who was waiting outside, and then said, “Eldest Miss, you’d better return first.”
Mu Zi Yan said in a low voice, “If grandmother is like this, how can I go back with confidence, I’ll keep watch here.”
“This,” Seeing that Mu Zi Yan would not leave, Sister From did not say much.
Not long after, to be the old lady a little slow to breathe, Mu Zi Yan went up to personally end the hot water, Mu Zi Ruoxi will be from her hands to take over, Mu Zi Yan eyes narrowed slightly, in Mu Zi Ruoxi want to take over the time, her hand a loose, the cup will be from Mu Zi Ruoxi’s hands slipped down, and instantly spilled on Mu Zi Ruoxi’s dress.
Mu Zi Ruoxi shrieked in pain, raising her eyes tearfully to look at Mu Zi Yan, “Big sister, what are you doing”
“Second sister, the second house is now separated, in the future, if you have the heart, come and see grandmother.” Mu Zi Yan turned around and poured another cup while handing it to the old madam.
The old madam’s eyes sank slightly as she raised her eyes to look at her, “Smokey girl, I know you’re a filial one, but now that I’m also old and not feeling well, I originally thought that Barbara would be able to keep me company, but Barbara has already gone, and now Ruoxi girl is the only one who can keep me company.”
“Isn’t there still the third sister,” Mu Zi Yan said with a smile.
“You mean,” the old madam looked at Mu Zi Yan, obviously pondering the meaning of these words.
Mu Zi Yan continued, “In the past, the third sister to grandmother is the most intimate, now the third sister in the family temple suffered a lot of pain, since it is sensible, the third aunt to go, she is alone, the second sister’s body is weak, the second aunt of the loss of heart madness often attack, if the second sister to stay in the grandmother this place, then the second aunt is not no one to take care of the side.”
Mu Zi Ruoxi saw that Mu Zi Yan was determined to drive her out, remembered that yesterday cousin even sent Mu Zi Yan back to the house, also refused to come into the house to see her, raised her eyes indignantly to look at Mu Zi Yan, “Big sister, do you really hate me so much”
“The second sister said this is where the words,” Mu Zi Yan puzzled said, “a hundred good filial piety first, the second aunt body is not feeling well, the second sister body is weak, even if you want to stay in the grandmother’s place to serve, that also want to look for a better body, more cheerful character of the third sister ah.”
Mu Zi Ruoxi saw Mu Zi Yan insinuating that she had been crying all day long, and even if she served at the side, it was still bad luck, and she was so angry that she got up and stared at her angrily, “Big sister, even if I did something wrong before, but I was also punished, so are you just going to be kinder to me?”
“What kind of reasoning is this,” Mu Zi Yan sneered, “is not bitten by a dog, but also to come forward, touching the dog’s head, and kindly say, this time you bit a bite, I will let you go, next time you can not be allowed to bite.”
“Big sister compares me to a dog” Mu ZiXi was about to completely tear her face off with Mu ZiYan, and rushed forward to get tangled up with her.
