Chapter 105 – Royal Secrets (Second Shift) (2 / 2)

In his previous life, the Fifth Prince’s consort was Zhang Yirong, so what’s she got to do with it?

“Haha,” Mu Lingxuan, however, did not say any more, just laughed cheerfully, and then said, “When the fifth prince returns to the capital, you can ask him.”

Mu Zi Yan felt more and more strange, only to see Mu Lingxuan take the lead out of the screen.

She followed her out and saw Qi Xuan looking at her.

Mu Lingxuan then went out of the hall, and the two of them, Zhang Staffer and Qi Xuan, glanced at each other and landed their gaze on Mu Zi Yan’s body.

“Cousin, what’s this about big cousin,” Qi Xuan asked as he looked at Mu Zi Yan in puzzlement.

“I don’t know, just ask me if I can remember what happened when I was three years old” Mu Zi Yan spread her hands, “How could I remember”

When Qi Xuan heard this, his face was a bit unnatural, then he lowered his head and coughed a few times, secretly chagrined, how could he forget about this file to come.

Muzzy Smoke looked at him, “What’s going on”

Qi Xuan shook his head, “It’s fine, it’s best if you don’t remember.”

“Oh.” Mu Zi Yan looked at Qi Xuan’s expression and thought that it was something bad, so she answered in a low voice and then spoke, “Big Brother Zhang, I’ll go back to rest first.”

“Good.” Zhang Zong was excited at the moment, but his heart was also a little heavy, he had not expected to know so many things tonight, he looked at Mu Zi Yan and sighed in his heart, this girl is a character.

Featured looked at Qi Xuan, “What happened to the three-year-old”

“This one,” Qi Xuan spoke faintly, “a milk doll clamoring to grow up and marry a seven year old prince.”

Staffer understood, and was visibly stunned, “I didn’t know.”

“Can you know,” Qi Xuan looked at the chapter, “that he’s the big trouble compared to you.”

Chaptersolicious looked at him, “Cousin Ziyan is still young.”

“There’s still a lot of action to see tomorrow, so rest early.” Qi Xuan sighed radically and lifted his steps to go outside.

The chapter report nodded slightly before leaving with Qi Xuan.

Leaving Zhang Zong alone to fret, he raised his eyes to look at the empty hall in front of him and sat there until dawn.

After Mu Zi Yan got up, Yun Xiang and Bi Yun carefully waited at the side.

“Eldest Miss, the Cool King entered the palace late at night.” Yunxiang whispered, “Went to Yongshou Palace.”

“En.” Mu Zi Yan faintly responded, “After all, the Empress Dowager is guilty to the Liang King.”

“Eldest Miss, why do you think the Empress Dowager asked the Liang King to give the throne to the Emperor in the first place,” Yunxiang knew since.

Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look at her, “Some words are best rotted in the stomach.”

“Yes.” Yunxiang knew that she had said the wrong thing and hurriedly answered with downcast eyes.

Mu Zi Yan looked at her, “Woe comes out of the mouth, the less you know, the longer you can live.”

“Slave servant knows that she is wrong.” Yunxiang hurriedly responded, scared into a cold sweat.

Mu Zi Yan waved her hand and said, “Let’s go.”

“Yes.” Yun Xiang carefully stepped out of the house along with Mu Zi Yan, she knew that she almost caused a big trouble just now, she hated to whip herself.

After Mu Ziyan came out, she saw Staffer Zhang and Qi Xuan sitting in the courtyard, looking like they hadn’t slept all night, she walked up, “Cousin Zhang, your body hasn’t healed yet, why don’t you take a good rest?”

“I’m fine.” Staffer looked at Mu Ziyan, “Cousin Ziyan, if there is anything wrong later”

“Cousin Zhang don’t worry, I’ll be fine.” Mu Zi Yan said with a smile.

“Good.” Seeing how certain she was, the chapter staffer said no more.

Qi Xuan looked at her, “Cousin, Princess Yuxia has arrived.”

“Cousin, just leave this matter to me.” Mu Zi Yan continued, “Since a thief broke into the prison last night, you don’t need to show up today.”

“Good.” Zhong Xuan nodded in response.

Empress Lu walked over, “The Empress Dowager has arrived.”

“The Cool King is really good at this.” Mu Zi Yan hooked her lips in a cold smile before saying, “Cousin, you and Cousin Zhang are right here.”

“Cousin, be careful with everything.” Qi Xuan knew that if he stepped forward at this time, it would only be a way to get the word out.

Mu Zi Yan nodded slightly, turned around and went out of the back hall, and when he traveled to the public hall, he joined Zhang Zong in welcoming him.

The Empress Dowager dropped down from the phoenix whisky, and the Liang King and Princess Yu Xia followed respectfully.

Seeing Mu Zi Yan kneeling in front of her, she lovingly said, “So it’s Smoke Girl.”

Mu Zi Yan answered in a low voice, “My daughter sees the Empress Dowager.”

“Rise.” The Empress Dowager whispered.

“Thank you for the Empress Dowager’s grace.” Mu Zi Yan rose respectfully.

The Empress Dowager held Mu Zi Yan’s hand, and the group entered the public hall.

Zhang Zong stood aside, and the Empress Dowager looked at him, “My condolences for coming here this day is merely a distraction.”

Mu Zi Yan thought to herself that the public hall could also be a distraction

King Liang and Princess Yu Xia sat at the back side of the Empress Dowager, while Zhang Zong stood to the side, “Back to the Empress Dowager, the death of the third extra horse harnessed by the side of a team has now resulted in the murderer being found.”

“Oh.” The Empress Dowager answered and sighed, “I didn’t expect this to happen, who killed the third prince consort?”

“Reporting back to the Empress Dowager, this matter still requires Miss Mu to come up and report.” Zhang Zong whispered back.

“Earlier on, I had heard that girl Smoke was good at deciding cases, and now I’m just in time to take a look.” The Empress Dowager landed her gaze on Mu Zi Yan’s body.

“My daughter wouldn’t dare, but it’s just a class act.” Mu Zi Yan said without being overbearing, “The one who killed the third emperor’s son-in-law was the shopkeeper of Fuyuan Residence.”

“It’s him,” the Empress Dowager’s eyes flashed with a flash of ghostly light when she heard Mu Ziyan tell the true culprit.

Mu Zi Yan answered in a low voice, “Exactly.”

“Is there any evidence,” Princess Yu Xia opened her mouth and asked.

“Since there is.” Mu Zi Yan then presented the evidence, “This is the note left by the third extra horse harnessed by the side of a team as he was dying.”

The maidservant beside Princess Yu Xia took it and handed it to Princess Yu Xia, and after reading it, she looked at Mu Zi Yan, “What is the meaning of this?”

“Princess Yuxia doesn’t know, my daughter found a female corpse in the backyard of Fuyuan Residence, and there was an object on that female corpse.” Mu Zi Yan said and handed her a paper hairpin.

Princess Yuxia recognized the hairpin right away, and her eyes sank slightly, “Mu Zi Yan, you’d better tell the truth.”

“Yes.” Mu Zi Yan answered in a low voice, “This maidservant is the personal maidservant in front of the third prince’s side consort, she had a private affair with the shopkeeper of the Fuyuan Residence, and the two of them had a secret love affair when they were coincidentally caught by the three extra horse harnessed by the emperor’s side, and then the three extra horse harnessed by the emperor’s side took a liking to that maidservant, and the shopkeeper, who saw that maidservant abandoning him, killed that maidservant in a fit of anger, and later on designed to kill the three extra horse harnessed by the emperor’s side.”

“This is nothing more than your speculation.” Princess Yu Xia coldly snorted.

“Your Highness has since recognized that hairpin, that shopkeeper’s fear of crime absconded, just to be stopped by Lord Zhang outside the moat, that shopkeeper jumped into the moat to commit suicide, but left behind a letter, coupled with that note in the hands of Your Highness, the human evidence and material evidence are all there.” Mu Zi Yan laid out these evidence that had been forged early on.

Zhang Zong saw that Mu Zi Yan had spoken with reason and a good head, but in his heart, he secretly admired that it was really not easy to do all this in such a short period of time.

Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes and looked at Princess Yu Xia, “Your Highness, Your Highness, Qi Shizi was framed and actually framed, I hope that Your Highness will be clear about this.”

Princess Yu Xia looked down at the letter, her fingertips turning slightly white, and sighed quietly, “So that’s how it is.”

The Empress Dowager nodded her head in satisfaction after seeing Mu Zi Yan speak, while the mind of the Liang King, who stood by the side, looked heavy.

This girl is really something.

This matter was considered to have come to an end, the Empress Dowager merely smiled faintly, and after praising Mu Zi Yan for a few sentences, she left the Beijing Zhaoyin’s government office.

Princess Yu Xia had since led the corpse of the third prince consort back to the Princess’s residence.

King Liang followed behind the Empress Dowager from the beginning to the end and never looked at Mu Ziyan again.

Zhang Zong returned to the government office and looked at Mu Zi Yan, looking a bit worried, “Yan’er, this matter, the Liang King will definitely settle the score in the fall, so you’d better be careful.”

Mu Zi Yan nodded, “Many thanks to Brother Zhang.”

Zhang Zong is not that kind of pedantic people, although the nature of straightforward, but, also know the pros and cons, know that now is not the truth can not be published in the public, after all, which involves too much, even if he said out, the emperor will look at the face of the Empress Dowager, and will not be held accountable.

Featured and Qi Xuan two waiting for her, see her back, the two also put down their hearts, this a lot of fuss, really is a wave of twists and turns.

“Cousin Zhang, let me send you back to the mansion.” Mu Zi Yan said indifferently.

“Good.” Seeing that Mu Zi Yan said so, the chapter staffer thought that she had something to say to him, so she gladly responded.

Qi Xuan also just spoke in a warm voice, “Cousin, I’ll return to the mansion first.”

“Good.” Mu Zi Yan continued, “Cousin go back and rest well, there are some things that cannot be rushed.”

“En.” Qi Xuan smiled and answered.

In the carriage, the Chapter Staffer looked at her with calm eyes, “Cousin Zi Yan can speak if she has something to say.”

Mu Zi Yan nodded her head and said, “Cousin Zhang, what exactly has cousin Yi Huan learned in these three years outside”

“I don’t know.” The chapter shook his head.

“That master of hers, never appeared, in this matter, Cousin Zhang had better keep an eye out.” Mu Zi Yan said in a low voice, “Cousin Zhang, many thanks for yesterday’s matter.”

“Cousin Zi Yan, I just want to know what your plans are for the future,” Staffer said with a straight face.

Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look at him, “Where is Cousin Zhang”

“I,” said the chapter staffer, with a low laugh, “would like to know the mind of Cousin Ziyan now.”

Mu Zi Yan looked at him, really can’t overlap with the Staffer of the previous life, she would like to know, the Staffer of the previous life in the end how the end of the Staffer but, this life, she is not willing to him to take the path of the previous life, you can know, the Staffer of the chapter if it is really stand on Jun Qian Hao that, undoubtedly give Zhong Xuan a big helping hand.

She continued, “Last night was my mind.”

“What do you think of the Fifth Prince,” Staffer continued.

“I’m interested in the Fifth Prince,” Mu Zi Yan raised her eyebrows, “Everything will have to wait until he returns to the capital.”

“You have him in mind,” Staffer finally asked, unable to resist.

“Ah” Mu Zi Yan looked at him in a daze, “Cousin Zhang, you don’t think that I stood by the Fifth Prince because I have feelings for him”

“Isn’t it” Chapter Staffer saw Mu Zi Yan suddenly smile and he was visibly stunned.

“No.” Mu Zi Yan hastily put away her smile, “I’ve never even seen what he looks like.”

“Oh.” Upon hearing this, the Chapter Staffer finally let go of his heart, and then said, “Cousin Zi Yan, as long as you remember, but whatever decision you make, I will be on your side.”

“What about the Zhang Houfu” Mu Zi Yan looked at him and asked.

“This one is my business.” Commented the chapter seriously.

“Good.” Mu Zi Yan smiled and answered, “Cousin Zhang, many thanks.”

“Cousin Zi Yan need not be so polite.” The chapter gazed at her features, and he did so only to make her happy.

When she returned to the Zhang Hou Mansion, Mu Zi Yan gave some instructions and went back to the Mu Hou Mansion.

Qi sent someone to send word that she had gone to the State Duke’s Mansion in the morning and wouldn’t be back until later.

Mu Zi Yan thought that this tomorrow’s third uncle will be back, after five days is the Empress Dowager’s birthday banquet, immediately after she will have to go to the Divine Doctor door, so thinking about time is really tight.

Yunxiang walked in with her head hanging down, “Eldest Miss, Second Miss Lan is here.”

“She” Mu Zi Yan was visibly stunned, “What is she doing here”

“I don’t know.” Rueyang continued, “It’s out there now.”

“What has she been up to these past few days” Mu Zi Yan asked in a low voice.

“When Yun Ying Temple returned, she stayed in her boudoir and did not leave the house.” Yunxiang truthfully returned.

Mu Zi Yan was silent for a moment, then she got up, “Since she’s here, she can’t be turned away from the door.”

“Yes.” Yun Xiang then followed Mu Zi Yan out of the inner room.

From afar, I saw a light blue dress of the woman, tall, beautiful appearance, compared to the Yun Fei’s charming and sentimental, more than a few points of the cold, her face did not have too much expression, to see Mu Zi Yan, but also just a slight nod.

“Sister Mu.” Lan Xin’er lightly opened her red lips, and the look between her brows remained the same.

Mu Zi Yan smiled and stepped forward, making a half bow towards her, “Sister Lan.”

“I came to say something to you.” Lan Xin’er didn’t beat around the bush, but said it bluntly.

“Sister Lan please speak.” Mu Zi Yan invited her to sit down and politely returned.

“I know what Old Lady Mu has in mind, but I already have my heart in the right place, so I won’t marry into the Marquis Mu.” Lan Xin’er looked at Mu Zi Yan and said.

“Dao is so.” Mu Zi Yan nodded slightly, not realizing that Lan Xin Er had come to seek her out to talk about this matter, “It’s just that the old madam is due to the third uncle, and it won’t help if Sister Lan talks to me about this matter.”

“What I want to say is that it is the Fifth Prince that I am attracted to.” Lan Xin Er looked at Mu Zi Yan, “He will return to the capital in a few days, the reason I am so frank is because I heard that you pestered him when you were young.”

“When I was young,” Mu Zi Yan looked at her in disbelief, how could she not know about this?

Mu Zi Yan will be able to remember all the things remembered, but the fifth prince Jun Qian Yu does not have any impression, and now blue Xiner came to tell her these, she is more and more do not understand this which actually happened what happened

Thinking of the old lady yesterday looking for her to go before the words, this day and see blue Xiner so, then, the previous life blue Xiner is the fifth prince went before marrying, could it be that at that time she was just looking for a reason to find their own deaths

Mu Zi Yan couldn’t help but sigh up, such a woman, her nature was really strong.

Once Lan Xin’er had left, the old madam sent from Sister to come and summon her forward.

Her eyes moved slightly, but she told from Sister Lan Xin’er’s words and said in a low voice, “Second Miss Lan has no intention of treating Third Uncle.”

From the moment Sister heard this, she only felt that this Second Miss Lan was too arrogant, and immediately returned to the Long Pine Courtyard, the old madam’s face sank when she heard it, “But it’s just a Second Miss of the Lan Family, how dare she be so rampant.”

From the side, Sister agreed, “Old Lady, this Second Miss Lan doesn’t like Third Master, she doesn’t think that the Fifth Prince will like her.”

“Hmph.” The old lady’s eyes narrowed slightly, “But a short-lived ghost.”

Hearing the old madam say so, Sister From dared not open her mouth.

The day passed like this, the next day, Mu Zi Yan went to Qi’s courtyard, she heard the news of the third master returning to the house, and she did nothing more than smile faintly, “Mother, the third uncle has returned to the house.”

“En.” Qi also responded coldly, raising her eyes to look at Mu Zi Yan, “How are you preparing for the Empress Dowager’s birthday banquet”

“Mother, don’t worry, since I won’t lose the face of Marquis Mu.” Mu Zi Yan said with a smile.

“You girl.” Qi’s worried, “I’m worried about what the Empress Dowager has in mind for you.”

Mu Zi Yan pondered for a moment, “Mother, you’re worried that the Empress Dowager is going to bestow a marriage between her daughter and the Fifth Prince”

“En.” Qi nodded, “This birthday banquet the fifth prince back, the empress dowager is happy, all the families are watching, although the prince is not loved by the emperor, but the more so, the safer, later sealed a prince, this day but also live the most peaceful.”

Mu Zi Yan sighed as she listened to Qi’s words, Jun Qian Yu had come this time, but it was just a death sentence.

“Smoke ah, you are still young now, mother should not have said this, but there is nothing that can be done, you are in the limelight now, and I do not know how many eyes are staring at you.” Qi’s holding Mu Zi Yan’s slender and tender white hand, said quietly.

Mu Zi Yan obediently responded, “Mother, my daughter understands mother’s bitterness, but my fate is not up to heaven.”
