Chapter 095 – Teaching Mu Zixi (Second Shift) (2 / 2)
by Jessie@AFNCCHowever, where is she Mu Zi Yan’s opponent, before she could pounce, she was lifted by Mu Zi Yan and kicked to the ground.
The old madam’s eyes condensed, and she said in a deep voice, “Smoke girl, wanton.”
Mu Zi Yan turned her eyes to look at the old madam and smiled lowly, “Grandmother, it was the second younger sister who started the fight, I would not have been beaten, as the eldest sister, it is proper to teach the unintelligent younger sister a lesson.”
She said as she bent down, and when Mu Zixi struggled to get up, she lifted her hand and swung it over, her eyes shattering a cold light as she looked down on her condescendingly, “Second sister, there’s a degree of capriciousness to be had.”
Mu Zixi only felt her cheeks burning hot, she looked at Mu Zi Yan incredulously, covering half of her face, she then lay on her back and looked up at her.
Mu Zi Yan raised her hand and slapped again, continuing, “This kind of small wisdom is hardly elegant, in the future it is best to put away your tears.”
Mu Zi Ruoxi suddenly scared to withdraw the tears, just staring at her like this, since childhood, she thought of all the ways to win Mu Zi Yan’s heart, Mu Zi Yan treats herself as if she were a sister like love, any good things are given to her, I do not know when, Mu Zi Yan but on their own so cold, and then this day also hands hit her!
Mu Zixi couldn’t figure out why she had to suffer such humiliation was it because she wasn’t the first daughter of the first daughter of the marquis she glared at her unwillingly and slumped to the ground and didn’t move a muscle.
Seeing that Mu Zi Yan dared to do it in front of her, the old madam said in a deep voice, “It seems that Ruoxi is not the only one who has no rules… is this your rule?”
Mu Zi Yan turned her eyes to look at the old madam and smiled lowly, “Grandmother, between the second sister and the third sister, you can only choose one, grandmother is aware of that, granddaughter’s words will be honored.”
The old lady where to receive this kind of threat, if it is the old days, she must be on Mu Zi Yan hands, but now since that time things failed, she knows, now act more carefully, since it can not be with the big house started a dispute.
She suppressed the anger in her heart, and then looked at the weak Mu Zixi who was lying on the ground, and remembered Mu Zijing’s training within the family temple these days, she took a deep breath, after all, Mu Zijing was her own granddaughter.
“Ruoxi girl, go back and clean up, your mother’s place can’t be left unattended.” The old madam held her forehead feebly and said quietly.
Mu Zi Ruoxi was visibly stunned, raising her eyes incredulously to look at the old madam, she had curried favor for so long, but in vain, in the old madam’s heart, she would rather choose Mu Zi Jing than her.
Why the hell is that?
Mu Zi Ruoxi slowly got up, coldly sweeping over the old lady lying on the bed, as well as Mu Zi Yan, who was coldly staring at her in front of her, she secretly swore that the humiliation of today, she Mu Zi Ruoxi would definitely get it back ten million times over.
Mu Zixi turned around and went out of the Long Pine Courtyard, she didn’t know how she got back to the Moon Stream Courtyard, she just locked herself up in the inner room alone, and so it was for a day.
Mu Zi Yan left after Mu Zi Xi did.
The old madam was lying on her bed, with a splitting headache, and when she saw From Sister come in, she whispered, “This girl’s mind is hard to gauge.”
“Old madam, the eldest young miss is now out of control, if she is not removed as soon as possible, I’m afraid that she will be even more difficult to deal with in the future.” From Sister said carefully.
“Then we also need to think of a way to get the best of both worlds.” The old madam’s eyes narrowed slightly, shooting out a streak of killing intent.
Mu Zi Yan exited the Long Pine Courtyard and turned her eyes to Yun Xiang, “Send people to keep an eye on Yun Ying Temple, especially Abbot Void.”
“Yes.” Yunxiang answered in a low voice, and then went to pass on the message.
Bi Yun followed carefully, “Eldest Miss, although you have thrown Second Miss out, but Third Miss’s place is also a big trouble.”
Mu Zi Yan said in a low voice, “If she is allowed to remain in the family temple, that would be the real trouble.”
She didn’t believe the old madam wouldn’t secretly train Mu Zijing, after all, Mu Zijing was her own granddaughter, so how could she possibly give up Mu Zijing for Mu Zixi?
Bi Yun was a bit confused, but she also knew that the eldest miss had her own reasons for doing so.
Mu Zi Yan will go to Qi’s place to ask for peace every day, accompanied by her chatting for a while, yesterday Mu Zi Yan was declared into the palace, coupled with the head of the many things that have happened, Mu Zi Yan back to the house has been very late, so did not come to disturb Qi.
Now just entered the house, saw Qi’s carefully looked at her, “you this girl, in the palace can be aggrieved”
“Mother, the Empress Dowager merely summoned me forward for a few moments of casual conversation.” Mu Zi Yan, however, felt that the Empress Dowager’s actions undoubtedly indicated something, leading her around the palace and not knowing what kind of storm she had caused.
Qi was naturally able to guess some of this, and then said, “In the future, you should be more careful, now that the imperial sons have gradually come of age, it is at the time of selecting the imperial consort, the empress dowager is pulling you out as a shield.”
When Mu Zi Yan saw Qi tell her so bluntly, she smiled lowly and said, “Mother don’t worry, my daughter has her own measure.”
“En.” Qi felt that her daughter is too good is also trouble, now Mu Zi Yan is too dazzling, plus there is also behind the Mu Marquis and the State Duke’s Office, how many pairs of eyes staring at it in this court.
Mu Zi Yan naturally also know the advantages and disadvantages of this, she has not yet reached maturity, those people have already begun to hit her idea, it seems that the future days will be more lively.
Mu Zi Yan came out from Qi’s courtyard and packed up to head to the Beijing Zhaoyin Yamen.
To enter the government office, they saw the chapter Staffer has arrived, he is now sitting in the hall, chatting with Zhang Zong, the two seem to be talking to each other.
Mu Ziyan knew very little about the Staffer in his previous life, and now, looking at the Staffer’s too diligent appearance in the past two days, he was a little uncertain for a while.
Chapter Staffer saw Mu Zi Yan enter the room and then rose, “Cousin Zi Yan.”
“Zhang Shizi.” Mu Zi Yan still called out politely.
The chapter reporter, however, did not care, and then sat down, saying in a low voice, “Mu Shizi and Qi Shizi have not yet arrived, and Second Miss Cui has not yet come over, so I wonder if Cousin Zi Yan guessed who the murderer was last night”
Mu Zi Yan laughed lowly and said, “The matter of investigating the case is Lord Zhang’s duty, I wouldn’t dare to steal the credit.”
“Smokey ah, don’t sell yourself short.” Zhang Zong looked at Mu Zi Yan, “Just tell me, did you discover something”
Mu Zi Yan saw Niangzi Lu walk over, holding a tray with fresh cherries in her hands, and said with a smile, “It’s rare to have fresh cherries in this season.”
“This was brought by Zhang Shizi.” Lady Lu said with a smile.
Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look at Zhang Shi Shi, “Zhang Shi Zi is thoughtful.”
“I remembered that Cousin Zi Yan loves cherries, and it just so happened that some were sent from the south, so I brought them here on purpose.” Staffer said with a light smile.
“Is that so” Mu Zi Yan looked at a delicate cherry, casually picked up a hand, put into the mouth, gently bite, full of juicy, through the silk sweet and sour, she is extremely love cherry, but this thousand years, she can only see but can not eat, which for her is a great torture, so she will deliberately avoid places where there are cherries, over time, will also be the flavor of the imprinted heart. Therefore, she deliberately avoided places with cherries, and over time, the flavor of cherries was imprinted in her heart.
Now eating cherries again, there is a kind of longing for a long time things lost and found a sense of finch, Mu Houfu is not no cherries, however, she was reborn over the time, just before the season of cherry production, these days and too busy, so a time to forget.
Staff report to see Mu Zi Yan eyes overflowing with smiles, he slightly stunned, did not expect her even because of the cherries and show such a satisfied look, the corners of the lips are stained with crimson juice, agile almond eyes bent into a crescent moon at the moment, no image of a one by one biting, this look of Mu Zi Yan, looks particularly lovely and pure, is even more brightly colored and touching.
Seeing Mu Zi Yan eating happily, Empress Lu smiled and sat aside, turning her eyes to see Staffer Zhang staring at Mu Zi Yan in a daze, her eyes flashed with a thick smile, then she took a silk handkerchief and handed it to her.
Mu Zi Yan took it with a smile, and waited until she finished half a plate of cherries alone, then she wiped the corners of her lips with satisfaction, raising her eyes to look at Zhang Staffer and Zhang Zong staring at her, she smiled lightly and said, “It’s rare to have such a preference, don’t be offended.”
The chapter reporter laughed lowly and said, “If I had known that my cousin loved cherries so much, I would have brought more.”
“No need, father has already brought over some from Funan, I think it will arrive in the next two days.” Mu Zi Yan said with a smile.
Chapters eyed down, but stopped answering.
Mu Zi Yan turned her eyes to Zhang Zong, “Senior Zhang, do you have a decision on this matter”
“Everything will wait until Second Miss Cui comes.” Zhang Zong looked at Mu Zi Yan, revealing a rare wry smile.
Mu Zi Yan laughed lowly, “Heroes see the same thing.”
“You two, you really are,” Niangzi Lu felt that since she had met Mu Zi Yan, Zhang Zong’s temperament had obviously become more lively, and in turn, he was a bit less mute.
Mu Zi Yan laughed lowly, “Sister Lu, Elder Zhang will need to be properly tempered in the future. taught, look at him, it’s only been a few days and he’s in his original form.”
“Tune in. Teach,” the staffer commented, listening to Mu Zi Yan’s words, a rare voice.
Mu Zi Yan said with a raised eyebrow, “Isn’t it”
“It’s,” Staffer commented, men do need to be coached sometimes. Coaching, but it also depends on who is letting letting. It depends on who is being coached.
Mu Zi Yan stared at Zhang Shi Shi for a long time, “Zhang Shi Zi, after this bustle is over, you’re going back.”
“Tomorrow is Cousin Zi Yan’s birthday, I heard that Miss Qi started to prepare early, and even gave a post, tomorrow I happen to be free, I have to go.” Staffer said in a low voice.
Mu Zi Yan raised his eyebrows and said, “It’s not good to say that we are just celebrating together as a family, how can we get down to the post?
When the chapter reporter saw her frown, she then said in relief, “It seems that Cousin Zi Yan does not want me to go forward.”
Mu Zi Yan since is not willing, but think of the relationship between the Zhang family and the Marquis of Mu, her say wrong if it is not good words, must be hurt each other’s face, anyway, since it has been under the post, she is not that kind of petty people, so said, “Where, but it is this matter is not I personally manipulate, so I do not know how much Cousin Xue’er actually under the post. “
“Tao is so.” Staff report to restrain the wittiness of the eyes, see the good reason he knows, since she agreed, he can not say broken.
A few people were having a chat when they saw Qi Xuan and Mu Lingxuan two people also walked in.
Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes and looked at Qi Xuan and Mu Ling Xuan, “Brother, cousin, but you want to eat cherries”
Qi Xuan saw Mu Zi Yan towards his bright smile, turned his eyes to look at the cherries that have been settled half, he said in a warm voice, “Yesterday just got the cherries, it’s that place in Qixian County that you always like to pick, specially sent a person to bring it by a fast horse, I’ve already sent someone to send it to the mansion.”
“Cousin has the heart.” Mu Zi Yan for the cherry is no resistance, see Qi Xuan said it is from Qi County, but also happy, you can know, this world, the most delicious cherries will come from Qi County.
Staffer listened to the report and for some reason, even secretly noted, thinking that later on, he will order people to go to Qixian County to go.
Mu Lingxuan sat aside and immediately pinched one into his mouth before saying, “This cherry”
Mu Zi Yan smiled and said, “It was brought by Zhang Shizi.”
“Oh.” Mu Lingxuan raised his eyes to look at Zhang Staffer, and when he turned his eyes, he saw Qi Xuan’s face visibly sink.
Mu Zi Yan did not care about this, and then looked behind her to Yun Xiang, “Go and see, Cui Er Miss can arrive”
“Yes.” Rue Xiang answered and left the hall.
Mu Zi Yan couldn’t help but pick up another one to eat and put it into her mouth, while then looking at Qi Xuan, “Cousin, do you still remember that one year, Qi County had a big flood, and I didn’t eat cherries for a whole year.”
“Yes, the next year you couldn’t wait for father to send someone to Qixian County with a whole basket of cherries, so happy.” Mu Lingxuan chimed in.
“The second younger sister came looking for me specifically, and I didn’t even bother to give it to her.” Mu Zi Yan couldn’t help but think of the events of her previous life, the happiest times she had ever had were stuck at the age of ten, but in this life, she must hold onto this happiness until she was old, until she died.
The reporter saw Mu Zi Yan talking about the past, he seemed to think of his own childhood, it seems that since childhood, he has been accompanied by Jun Qian Hao’s side, he and Zhong Xian two people, back then, one became the crown prince’s companion readers, one became the third prince’s companion readers, therefore, the childhood has never been wantonly unrestrained, and has never had memories such as Mu Zi Yan that way.
Watching Qi Xuan and Mu Ling Xuan dotingly look at Mu Zi Yan, as well as listening to their shared childhood memories, Chapter Staffer suddenly felt as if he was missing a lot of things.
After a while, not seeing Cui Yunran come, she simply did not have the interest to wait, and then looked to Zhang Zong, “Lord Zhang, but sent someone to go to Marquis Cui’s residence.”
“Also good.” Zhang Zong also felt that Cui Yunran’s future should be out of the question.
Mu Zi Yan’s face slightly sunken, not see just now the joy of the gas, but more a few points of the ground deep, she then got up, “or personally go to a trip.”
“Good.” Zhang Zong was also a bit uneasy, so the group got up to leave.
Just before we reached the door of the government office, we saw the yamen hurriedly come to report, “My lord, Miss Cui Er is dead.”
“Dead,” Zhang Zong didn’t frown tightly and said in a deep voice, “How did he die?”
“She was found hanging herself from a beam inside the house this morning.” The magistrate hurriedly said, “This is the housekeeper of Marquis Cui’s residence, specially here to report the case.”
Mu Zi Yan’s eyes sank, feeling that there was something strange about this matter, could it be that her previous guesses were false
Mu Lingxuan didn’t expect Cui Yunran to die, and to kill herself either
“I see something very strange about this.” Staffer spoke calmly.
Without any further thought, the group traveled together to Marquis Cui’s residence.
When Marquis Cui saw Zhang Zong come, with Mu Lingxuan behind him, he stepped forward and angrily shouted, “What are you doing here?”
Mu Lingxuan also only spoke faintly, “Marquis Cui, the latecomer also came to find out the truth.”
“What else is there to investigate, Yun Ran was forced by you to die you.” Marquis Cui said and flung over the suicide note left by Cui Yunran.
Mu Zi Yan hastily reached out and took it, and after reading it, she turned her eyes to Zhang Zong, “Senior Zhang, please look.”
Zhang Zong took it and read it as well, and then the two of them looked at each other, and then they entered Cui Yunran’s boudoir together.
He saw that Cui Yunran had been laid flat on the ground, his face stiff, and there was only one strangulation mark on his neck, with no other signs of struggle.
Niangzi Lu came forward to examine the corpse, and then said, “It was between the hour of dawn and the hour of midnight, there was no sign of poisoning, and there were no other bruises on the body, so it seems to have been a self-inflicted death.”
Mu Zi Yan bent down and carefully examined Cui Yun Ran’s corpse, raising her eyes to look at Niangzi Lu, “Sister Lu, do you feel that something is wrong again.”
“She was abused the day before yesterday. She was humiliated only the day before, so it’s reasonable to say that there must still be traces left on her body, but look, there’s not even a trace on her body, and I just checked her,” Nyonya Lu raised her eyes to look at the people waiting in the hall, and then spoke, “She’s still in perfect condition.”
Marquis Cui was shocked when he heard this, “How is this possible”
“If Marquis Cui doesn’t believe me, he can ask the doctor to come.” Lady Lu said indifferently.
Marquis Cui turned around skeptically, “Go get the doctor.”
“Yes.” The butler answered, and then he turned around and left.
Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to observe the furnishings of the inner room, and then walked to the side of the bookcase, to see the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on it, and then looked to the letter, and then took up Cui Yun Ran’s proverbial post page by page and turned it over.
Staffer, on the other hand, stood by and watched Mu Ziyan, seeing that she was not panicked, seeing a dead person can be so calm, indeed, he was surprised, after all, at this age, encountered this kind of thing most likely will be scared to pass out.
Qi Xuan saw that Staffer’s gaze never moved away from Mu Zi Yan’s body, he stepped forward and whispered, “It’s impossible for you to be with her.”
Chapter Staffer laughed lowly, “I didn’t say anything.”
Qi Xuan snorted coldly, “Put away your curiosity, or else, I’ll be rude to you.”
“I say you,” the Staffer felt that Qi Xuan was a bit unreasonable at the moment, he did not just look at the girl a few more eyes, need such a warning!
Zhang Zong walked over, “Don’t you think it’s too clean”
“En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded her head before looking at Zhang Zong, then handed him the proverbial post in her hand.
After Zhang Zong carefully read it, he then took the epistle over to make a comparison, and then said, “So it is.”
Mu Zi Yan laughed lightly, “It seems that this is someone deliberately trying to stir up hatred between the Cui family and the Mu family.”
“Just” Zhang Zong still have many doubts for want to understand, turned his eyes to look at Mu Zi Yan, see her eyes low overflowing with calm, obviously already have a plan.
Mu Zi Yan went forward, then saw the housekeeper led the doctor to come, Mu Zi Yan saw that the doctor lowered his head, to enter the inner room, bent down and said, “Marquis.”
