Chapter 099 – Love Enemies Meet (Second Shift) (1 / 2)

Mu Zi Yan returned to the Smoke Drop Courtyard, and without thinking about it, she lay down on the soft couch and took a nap on her own.

Biyun and Yunxiang know, yesterday a whole day, Missy is afraid of exhaustion, if it were anyone else, now afraid of early to pass out.

At this moment, a report came from outside the courtyard, “Sister Yunxiang, Third Miss is here.”

“Eldest Miss has just rested, let Third Miss come over later.” Yunxiang felt that this third young miss rushed over, must be unsettled.

“Yes.” Cui Hong responded, then turned around and left the house.

Mu Zi Jing had gotten the news of Mu Zi Yan’s return, so she rushed here with bated breath, seeing Cui Hong come over, “Third Miss, Eldest Miss has just rested, you can come back later.”

“Didn’t you just come back,” Mu Zi Jing’s face sank as she turned around and left Smokefall Courtyard in a huff.

After Mu Zi Yan woke up, it was already near noon, only to feel exhausted all over her body, looking down at her thin body, she lowly laughed and said, it is necessary to properly strengthen her body.

With that, she got off the bed and couch, and Yunxiang had already come in, “Eldest Miss, just now Third Miss has come.”

“En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded faintly, “No matter, she will still come over.”

“Yes.” Rueyang didn’t say much.

Biyun quickly on the service, Mu Zi Yan dressed properly, then out of the room, thinking about what happened last night, the eyes slightly moving, beautiful and tender face seems to be coated with a layer of evil cold light.

After she had her lunch, “But brother has left the court.”

“The shift has not yet fallen.” Rueyang reported in a low voice.

“En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded her head and said, “There is news from the Yun Ying Temple.”

“Not yet.” Yunxiang continued, “Eldest Miss, the Second Mistress sent word that she will move out tomorrow.”

“The action is really fast.” The corner of Mu Zi Yan’s mouth slightly hooked, and then said, “Just keep an eye on it.”

“Miss, do you think the second master is really so wasted” Yunxiang but felt that according to the nature of the second master, will certainly think of making some things.

Mu Zi Yan smiled indifferently, “He’s just an invalid nowadays, don’t worry about it, with my second aunt there, second uncle won’t cause any major problems.”

“Eldest Miss, this Second Lady is also a strange one.” Yunxiang said in disbelief.

“Are things done at Zhong Xuan’s place,” Mu Zi Yan asked in a low voice.

“Done.” Rue Xiang whispered back, “Missy, are you sure she’ll fall for it”

“According to her nature, she will definitely.” Mu Zi Yan knew what Zhong Xuan needed the most now, and since she dared to take action against herself in advance, she was actually a sitting duck.

Mu Zi Yan remembered Chu Ye gave her those people to come, also do not know why, she always feel Chu Ye so do the purpose is not pure, exactly for what, will be this hot springs manor are given to her it

Mu Zi Yan really some can not figure out, only because she is now at this age, really can not be able to be able to hook up bar

“Eldest Miss, from Sister is here.” Yunxiang carefully reported.

“En.” Mu Zi Yan faintly answered, sitting up properly.

Waiting from the Sister to enter, reported in a low voice, “Missy, yesterday was your birthday, the old madam specially went to Yun Ying Temple to give you a peace talisman, but unfortunately Missy went out of the house early in the morning, so this day the old madam sent the old slave to send the birthday gift.”

Mu Zi Yan’s birthday in previous years will go to the long pine hospital, but yesterday she did not go, this is afraid of the first time, she did not want to go, just yesterday for her is very meaningful, she really do not want to think about the previous life of that bleak birthdays to.

She nodded slightly, “It’s a lot of trouble for Grandmother.”

Did not have too much explanation, handed Yunxiang a look, Yunxiang will go forward to receive the birthday gift with both hands, from Sister see Mu Zi Yan look pale, last night’s matter has been rumored, afraid of the whole capital know, but look at Mu Zi Yan’s look, from the Sister’s heart also has a side of the calculations.

Without further ado, he left the Smokefall Courtyard after respectfully saluting.

Yun Xiang turned her eyes to Mu Zi Yan, “Eldest Miss, this birthday gift”

“Old madam is knocking me down.” Mu Zi Yan laughed coldly, then raised her hand and took the peace talisman from Yun Xiang’s hand, and after carefully looking at it, she then said, “This peace talisman is not a good thing, I think it must have been begged from the Yun Ying Temple, so check it carefully.”

“Yes.” Yunxiang answered in a low voice, and then left with the collection of gifts.

Bi Yun walked in, as if she had found good news, and her eyebrows were all happy.

“You girl, how can you smile so joyfully” Mu Zi Yan smiled and picked up the tea, asking in a low voice.

“Eldest Miss, you don’t know, but Sister Cong Cong just went out from the Smoke Drop Courtyard, and was on her way back to the Long Pine Courtyard. She bumped into the Second Mistress, and the Second Mistress, somehow, suddenly started to go crazy, so she pounced on Sister Cong, and even bit her hard a few times.” Bi Yun smilingly reported back.

Mu Zi Yan had a smirk on the corner of her mouth, “Why would Auntie Two want to mess with Sister Cong”

“Invoke,” Bi Yun asked in disbelief as she watched Mu Zi Yan hastily put away her smile.

“En.” Mu Zi Yan looked to Bi Yun, “You go and see what From Sister is doing now.”

“Yes.” Bi Yun answered, then hurried out of the courtyard.

Yunxiang came back and saw Bi Yun looking in a hurry, glancing at her suspiciously before entering the house, “Eldest Miss, the Zhang Hou House has just placed a post.”

“Zhang Yirong just died, just after the first seven, Zhang Houfu at this time under the invitation is why” Mu Zi Yan full of doubts.

“I heard that it’s the Zhang Family’s Third Miss who has returned.” Yun Xiang whispered.

Mu Zi Yan hooked her lips and smiled lightly, “It seems there’s a lively scene again.”

“Eldest Miss, this Zhang Family’s Third Miss is not a good match.” Yunxiang remembered that the Zhang Family’s Third Miss was formidable, and her heart couldn’t help but tremble a little.

To say that this chapter family third miss chapter yihuan, is the second master of the chapter family’s first daughter, and chapter yirong’s feelings are not deep, but since young, it will stick to the chapter staffing, the chapter family is considered to be a civilian, only out of such a good martial arts young lady, with the chapter yirong’s age is similar, but will be able to make the chapter marquis house a mess to come, and then it is considered to be a coincidence, worshipped a master, the past three years, has been followed by the side of that master, and today also It is considered to have learned something.

“But because of the matter of Zhang third miss” Mu Zi Yan received the post after reading it, and then said, “No harm, she a little girl, can not help me.”

“Eldest Miss, are you going,” but Yun Xiang remembered what happened three years ago.

Mu Zi Yan saw Yun Xiang’s face showing concern, “You girl, this is three years in the past, is she so angry that she can still remember today, even if she does, I am not afraid.”

“Third Miss Zhang is very close to Second Miss, so I’m sure Second Miss is also going.” Yunxiang felt that this second young miss was accustomed to pulling people’s strings.

Mu Zi Yan laughed lowly, “So what if she wants to cause bad things, I will definitely not be soft.”

“In that case, the slave girl is relieved.” Yunxiang saw that Mu Zi Yan was completely disgusted with Mu Zi Ruoxi, and only then did she let go of her heart; it was really that second young miss who was too hateful.

“And go.” Mu Zi Yan waved her hand and said, but now she is thinking about what birthday gift to prepare for Qi Xue’er and Su Qin Rou, and I don’t know how those two maids should organize it.

As Mu Zi Yan was thinking, she saw Yun Xiang go and return, and then held two posts in her hands, “Eldest Miss, Eldest Miss Su and Eldest Cousin Miss sent the post.”

Mu Zi Yan raised her eyebrows and smiled lightly, “I was just thinking about it, then I came.”

She smiled and opened it, and when she had read it, she hooked her lips in a smile, “It’s getting more and more quirky.”

“Eldest Miss, you are going to be busy in these few days.” Yun Xiang whispered.

“It’s better to be lively.” Mu Zi Yan laughed, compared to the loneliness and bleakness of her previous life, she instead liked the hustle and bustle of being cared for.

Chapter Marquis House, chapter Staffer class back to the house, just into the hall, will see a touch of figure directly rushed over, immediately will be pounced on him, he has not yet reacted, will see in front of the eyes that smiled with a face of brilliant, and then laughed lowly, “I was then who is it, this are how old, still this is not big and small.”

“Brother, Huan’er just came back, so you dislike me.” Zhang Yi Huan tilted her head and smiled extraordinarily brightly, pouting her lips and looking at the Staffer with a strange grudge.

Staffer smiled with it, “When did you get back?”

“This morning.” Zhang Yihuan took Zhang Staffer’s arm and pulled him affectionately toward the hall.

Chapters commented as she watched her do so, “But you can’t run out of rules.”

With that, he jerked his arm out without a trace.

Seeing this, Zhang Yihuan was quite dissatisfied, “It’s been three years since I’ve seen my brother, and you’re still like this.”

Staff report to see that she is much taller than three years ago, see the color of the more and more rosy, light footsteps, can feel that she now does have some boxing and kicking kung fu, may be due to the age of the internal strength can not be said to have a high level of depth, but enough to defend themselves.

Chapter Staffer thought about the woman who had taken her away three years ago, and now she looked at Zhang Yihuan, and somehow had a bad feeling in her heart.

Zhang Yi Huan saw him sizing himself up, her heart rejoiced, “Brother, when did you get that good with Mu Zi Yan”

Seeing that Zhang Yihuan called her by her first name, she frowned, “It seems that there are no rules when it really comes down to it.”

“Brother, I was wrong.” Zhang Yihuan knew that he had slipped up and hastily spat out his tongue, hanging his head and admitting his mistake.

As Zhang Staffer walked on one side, Zhang Yihuan followed closely, “Brother, I have given a post to Miss Mu.”

“Doing what,” Staffer asked in a low voice, stopping slightly.

“I’m back, since I want to get together.” Zhang Yihuan said innocently.

Chapter Staffer lowered his eyes to look directly at Zhang Yihuan, “You just got back, and, Yirong just went.”

“I know, that’s why it needs to be lively and bustling, otherwise it’s not good for the mansion to be dead all the time.” Zhang Yi Huan said with a smile.

“What did you say,” a stern voice rang out, interrupting the two.

Chapter Staffer raised his eyes to see Mrs. Zhang Hou’s eyes coldly and angrily staring at Zhang Yihuan, he lifted his steps forward and bowed towards Mrs. Zhang Hou, “Mother.”

“Your big sister just left, after you came back, have you ever gone to see her, now it’s good, even said such words, it seems that the Marquis of Zhang is unable to tolerate you.” Marquis Zhang’s wife said angrily.

Zhang Yi Huan knelt down in aggravation, “Eldest Aunt, Huan’er is just seeing you sad, so she thought to take advantage of Huan’er’s coming to liven things up, or to let you be relieved.”

“If you don’t hang around me, I can be relieved.” Lady Zhanghou snapped, “Go and summon the Second Mistress here and see what a good daughter she has raised.”

Zhang Yihuan didn’t dare to say much, but just hung her head and cried.

“What a bunch of white-eyed wolves.” Seeing Zhang Yi Huan’s aggrieved and crying look, Mrs. Zhang Hou covered her chest and gasped in anger, “Yi Rong died less than a few days ago, yet you come back to anger me, what are you crying for now is that you want me to follow Yi Rong as well well? Good ah, you bunch of blackened hearted ones, when really you can’t be left behind.”

Seeing that Mrs. Zhang Hou was furious, she hurriedly stepped forward and said in relief, “Mother, don’t be angry with your body, the third sister just came back, and I think she is just being kind.”

“Kindly,” Mrs. Zhang Hou lifted her eyes to look at Staffer Zhang and sighed quietly, “Could it be that, in your heart, your own sister is not better than her”

“The child is not this meaning.” Staffer said with downcast eyes, “child understands, mother still feels that her sister died unjustly, so she is holding her anger in her heart, mother don’t worry, child will definitely avenge her sister’s death.”

“It’s good that you can say these words.” Lady Zhanghou sighed quietly, “Mother can only have you now.”

“Mother.” Staffer Zhang helped Mrs. Zhang Hou, “My son will help you go back to rest.”

“En.” Mrs. Chapter Marquis feebly allowed herself to be helped by Chapter Staffer and turned to leave.

Zhang Yihuan knelt on the ground, looking at the back of Staffer Zhang supporting the departure of Marquis Lady Zhang, that clear eyes lowly flashed with a touch of viciousness.

After Mu Lingxuan finished his shift, he returned to the mansion and went straight to Mu Ziyan’s courtyard, seeing that she was currently flipping through her scrolls in a calm and relaxed manner, he could not help but sigh, “Sister is really in a good mood.”

“Brother, this day the courtroom can be lively” Mu Zi Yan put down the scroll, slowly got up and asked with a smile.

Mu Lingxuan then sat down, Yunxiang hastily served tea and then retreated to the side, he picked up the tea, lightly sipped it and said in a low voice, “It is indeed lively.”

“Last night’s matter, Elder Zhang doesn’t know how to deal with it either.” Mu Zi Yan said with a low laugh.

“People are dead, dead without evidence, no clues to investigate, naturally it’s a dead end.” Mu Lingxuan looked at her and said, “However, there is an interesting matter in the courtroom today.”

“What is it,” Mu Zi Yan followed and sat down, asking in a low voice.

“The Minister of the Ministry of Appointments has cited the Third Prince.” Mu Lingxuan said in a low voice.

“What did it say,” Mu Zi Yan slightly stared, and then asked.

“It says that he embezzled the Utopia disaster relief money.” Mu Lingxuan continued, “The evidence is overwhelming.”

“This” Mu Zi Yan carefully recalled, but felt that there must be a big article here, her previous life at this time is busy with the matter of the Marquis of Mu, followed by being sent to the family temple, since it is not known.

“His Majesty ordered a thorough investigation into this matter.” Mu Lingxuan hooked his lips and smiled, his handsome features flashed a touch of warmly cold light.

“The evidence is overwhelming, yet there is still a thorough investigation, obviously taking sides.” Mu Zi Yan laughed lowly, “When the time comes to bring out a scapegoat, this matter will also be settled.”

“What my sister said is extremely true.” Mu Lingxuan did not expect Mu Zi Yan to be able to see the mystery here, and appreciated, “What does sister think is hidden behind this matter?”

“The emperor wants to sit firmly on the throne, must be to weigh the relationship between the crown prince and the third prince, if the third prince falls, then the crown prince will be alone, this matter may be the crown prince, may be the third prince for.” Mu Zi Yan said in a low voice, “If it is the Crown Prince, then the performance is too radical and obvious, will definitely cause the Emperor’s suspicion, if it is the Third Prince, this to frame the Crown Prince, even if he will be punished now, but he let the Emperor to temporarily eliminate the suspicion of him, so that the Emperor on the Crown Prince to be more guarded, he can also take this opportunity to cultivate his body and hosting force, so It is indeed three birds with one stone.”

“What sister said is good.” Mu Lingxuan continued, “However, sister thinks that this matter was done by the Crown Prince, or by the Third Prince”

“Third Prince.” Mu Zi Yan continued, “Brother is now in the Ministry of Revenue, but the final judgment of this matter also needs to be heard by the three chambers, and it involves the Ministry of Penalty, Leng Hanfeng is now in the Ministry of Penalty, and he is explicitly a staff member of the Crown Prince, and this matter is already complicated, and all the evidence of the crime specifies that it was the Crown Prince who did it.”

Mu Lingxuan nodded, “Not bad, then what does sister think should happen now”

“Wait and see what happens.” Mu Zi Yan said in a low voice, “If the Crown Prince comes back to his senses and knows the mystery in this matter, he will definitely take measures, he is not going to sit back and wait for death, therefore, we will not help each other.”

“En, not bad.” Mu Lingxuan nodded his head, “Sister actually has such a mind, in turn, it makes brother ashamed of himself.”

“Brother, you, don’t tease me.” Mu Zi Yan said with a smile, “How long will father stay in Funan”

“If things go well, more than a month.” Mu Lingxuan said in a low voice.

“Brother, things are afraid that it is not so simple, the Mu Marquis House and the State Duke House are involved too much, nowadays, although the border is stable, it is hard to guarantee that there will not be a war, and now that the imperial sons have grown up, the Mu Marquis House will become the State Duke House’s weak point, and I don’t think that it will be too smooth at father’s place.” Mu Zi Yan is always on edge, after all, there are too many people who covet the Mu Marquis, the enemy is in the dark, they are in the open, now as much as possible, they have to be prepared to take precautions.

Mu Zi Yan’s words caused Mu Ling Xuan to fall into deep thought, nodding his head slightly, “Sister’s concern is extremely true, I’ll write a letter to father and ask him to be more careful.”

“En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded her head, then said, “But brother is tired.”

“You’re giving an expulsion order,” Mu Lingxuan laughed lowly, but he didn’t linger any longer, got up and left.

Mu Zi Yan since Mu Ling Xuan left, then went back to the inner room, picked up the scrolls that had not yet finished reading and flipped through them, but it was absent-minded.

“Eldest Miss, Third Miss is here.” Yunxiang entered the inner room and reported back softly.

“Let her come in.” Mu Zi Yan responded indifferently, and then she put away her scrolls again.

When Mu Zi Jing entered the inner room, she hurriedly went up towards Mu Zi Yan and made a bow, “Big sister.”

“These days have been hard.” Mu Zi Yan looked at Mu Zi Jing with a little more determination in her expression, and knew that the old madam was indeed capable.

Mu Zi Jing looked at Mu Zi Yan’s unharmed appearance, and only then did she put her heart down, and then laughed, “It’s good that big sister doesn’t blame her younger sister.”

“Where are you talking from, they are all self-sisters.” Mu Zi Yan was not going to tear her face off with Mu Zi Jing nowadays, with Mu Zi Jing around, it was still possible to know the old madam’s intentions.

Mu Zi Jing laughed lowly and said, “Big sister, yesterday was your birthday, my sister didn’t have any good things to give you, so she specially embroidered this for you.”

Mu Zi Yan raised her hand to receive it, staring at the embroidery on the embroidered handkerchief, and said with a light smile, “Third sister has a heart.”

“Big sister, it was my younger sister’s ignorance in the past, please forgive big sister.” Mu Zi Jing said and knelt down towards Mu Zi Yan.

Mu Zi Yan saw that she really was different, this was much more intelligent than Mu Zi Ruoxi, the corner of her mouth hooked up in an affable smile, “Where is the third sister’s words, quickly get up.”
