Chapter 115 – Zhong Xuan Defeated (Second Shift) (1 / 2)
by Jessie@AFNCCSu Qinrou wanted to come out, but she saw Mu Zi Yan’s hand behind her back signaling her not to move, so she had to sit inside the carriage, only to feel the murderous aura outside.
Mu Zi Yan looked straight at Zhong Xuan, “Second Miss Zhong, if you lose tonight what should happen”
“Does Miss Mu still have heavenly abilities,” Zhong Xuan sneered.
Mu Zi Yan faintly raised her eyebrows, “The ability to pass through the heavens is not there, but it is ready to deal with you.”
“It seems that Eldest Miss Mu has deep preconceived notions about me.” Zhong Xuan laughed lowly.
“The view” Mu Zi Yan hooked her lips and smiled coldly, “Zhong Xuan, you want to kill me, do I still have to stand still and let you cut you when I Mu Zi Yan is that stupid”.
Zhong Xuan nodded slightly, “Those who fall into my hands have always only been at my mercy.”
Mu Zi Yan’s soulful eyes crossed a touch of evil ghostly light, raised her hands and moved them slightly, countless white shadows then fell and surrounded the carriage in the middle, she laughed lightly and said, “Then we will see if Miss Zhong Er has the ability to do this, Third Highness, there is not much time given to you to kill me, you only have half an hour to do it, if you lose, you won’t have this kind of opportunity in the future. “
Jun Qianhao did not expect Mu Zi Yan’s young age, actually able to say such arrogant words, his narrow eyes narrowed into a slit, the tips of his eyebrows hooked up with cold killing intent, coldly laughed and said, “Half an hour is enough.”
Mu Zi Yan was unimpressed, “It seems that Third Highness is still too overconfident and has not recognized his position.”
Jun Qianhao listened to Mu Ziyan’s contemptuous sneer as he snorted coldly, “Do it.”
Zhong Xuan looked straight at Mu Zi Yan, seems to have detected something, however, the killing heart has risen, she would not have the reason to stop she hooked her lips evil shallow smile, and then with Jun Qian Hao stood not far away, then saw the black shadow of his men and the white shadow of the protection of the Mu Zi Yan fought together, the moonlight is cold, the light of the swords and swords, the whole street is filled with the bone-chilling murderous intent, the cold wind sweeping the fallen leaves, fluttering and floating, do not see the fall.
Mu Zi Yan blandly straightened her back and stood, at the moment, she stood on the carriage, condescendingly looking at Jun Qian Hao and Zhong Xuan who stood on the ground, such a confrontation made Zhong Xuan extremely uncomfortable, she then whirled around and out of the way and landed on the eaves of the house not far away.
Su Qinrou listened to the sound of weapons clashing outside, seemed to feel the breath of death approaching, the whole body followed the stiffness, more afraid to go out.
Outside the State Duke’s Mansion, Crown Prince Jun Qian Che was seated on his horse, behind him were his guards, and the Imperial Guards that had been temporarily deployed from the palace, a total of 1,000 people, encircling the entire State Duke’s Mansion.
If it wasn’t for this person in front of him, Jun Qian Che would have already rushed in with his men and horses, and he looked straight at the person standing outside the mansion, his heart flashing with thick hatred.
“Fifth brother, why do you need to meddle,” the Crown Prince whispered, “I’ve come on the orders of Father Emperor.”
“Your Highness the Crown Prince, with my younger brother here, we certainly can’t let Your Highness the Crown Prince just barge in with his men and horses like this.” Jun Qian Yu is still wearing that goose yellow brocade robe, wide sleeve robe swings with the wind layer after layer of ripples, his handsome face reflected in the lights, through the brimming wind, red lips slightly hooked, look indifferent, just so stood, surrounded by everything will be dull.
Jun Qian Che has the heart to rush in, but also know Jun Qian Che in the heart of the Empress Dowager how important the position, if it hurts him a little bit, the Empress Dowager that must not be able to account for it, know that the father’s heart is the most respected Empress Dowager, as long as the Empress Dowager a word, this throne immediately to Jun Qian Yu are not in the words.
Jun Qian Che hates it the most, he is obviously the crown prince, is the future son of heaven, but there are so many uneasy younger brothers to compete with him, even more annoying is that his father is not valued by the emperor, the empress dowager love is not him, since the mother’s death, his position as the crown prince is like walking on thin ice.
The two were so deadlocked, Qi Yan and Qi Xuan father and son are now sitting in the main hall, the second master of Qi got up and paced back and forth, “Big brother, so let His Highness alone to face the”
“If we go out, the Crown Prince will take the opportunity to break in, the Fifth Highness is also stalling for time by doing so.” Qi Yan said in a low voice, “Second brother, don’t be anxious, there must be a turnaround in this matter.” Qi Yan said in a low voice.
“Ai, I’m only worried about Smokey’s girl’s safety.” Second Master Qi said worriedly.
“Smoke girl has her heart in the right place.” Qi Yan, however, was not worried about Mu Zi Yan, knowing that that girl was able to get Jun Qian Yu to come and relieve herself, she must have already thought of a good countermeasure.
Jun Qian Che and Jun Qian Yu so stalemate for half an hour, he finally could not wait, then ordered people to break in, was about to order, then saw in the distance someone steering a horse to come, rolled over and landed, “Your Highness the Crown Prince, the Emperor has a decree, ordered His Highness the Crown Prince to return to the palace as soon as possible.”
“Back to the palace,” Jun Qian Che lifted his eyes to look straight at Jun Qian Yu, his heart sinking as he said, “This palace knows.”
Jun Qian Yu said in a low voice, “My humble brother respectfully sends off His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.”
“Hmph.” Jun Qian Che snorted coldly, then turned around and left with his men.
Jun Qian Yu raised his eyebrows lightly and did not return to the State Duke’s Mansion, but flew away.
Qi Xuan heard that there was no more movement outside, and then he saw the housekeeper come, “Master, the Emperor sent a decree that the Crown Prince led the men away.”
“En.” Qi Yan nodded his head, and then saw that Qi Xuan had already rushed out in a hurry.
Second Master Qi looked at Qi Xuan’s departing back and turned his eyes to look at Qi Yan, “Big brother, it seems that something is going on at Smoke Girl’s end.”
“What happened tonight is just the beginning, after you return to the border this time, tell father to be careful.” Qi Yan said with a grave expression on his face.
“I’ll make a note of it.” Second Master Qi nodded his head in response, then said, “Big brother, you’re not in the capital like you are at the border, and it’s very hard to work step by step.”
“The border is also unsettled.” Qi Yan sighed quietly.
Mu Zi Yan looked at the two sides fighting fiercely in front of her, she laughed lowly and said, “There is still a quarter of an hour left, I think His Highness the Crown Prince’s men will soon arrive.”
Zhong Xuan’s eyes narrowed slightly as she landed on the ground, standing at Jun Qianhao’s side, “There’s no rush.”
When Mu Zi Yan saw Zhong Xuan say so, she suddenly got inside the carriage and looked at Su Qin Rou, “We should go.”
“Ah” Before Su Qinrou could react, Mu Zi Yan had already brought her back out of the carriage, and then took out two pellets from her sleeves and threw them directly at the front.
Right at this moment, Bai Xuan flashed down and tugged Mu Zi Yan and Su Qin Rou away quickly.
Zhong Xuan did not expect Mu Zi Yan unexpectedly, she was surrounded by smoke, and this thing is very choking, only smoked her eyes red, and so that the smoke slightly dispersed when she rushed over, the carriage has long been no trace of Mu Zi Yan, she said in a deep voice, “still do not chase”
At this time, the Prince Jun Qian Che is leading the men and horses rushed over, looking at the carriage parked in front of him, he remembered correctly, this is Mu Zi Yan’s carriage, he looked at not far away from the standing Zhong Xuan, because of the smoke has not been completely dispersed, from a distance to see Zhong Xuan’s figure is similar to that of Mu Zi Yan, so he thought that it was Mu Zi Yan, his heart is overflowing with anger, the State Duke of the Palace end did not get his way, thinking about how to take it out on the air, and at once, he lifted the whip! He was thinking about how to take his anger out, so he raised his horse whip and rode his horse directly forward.
Zhong Xuan had since sensed that there were men and horses rushing over, by the time she could see clearly, the whip in Jun Qian Che’s hand had already landed on her body, the horse whip directly lashed out at her arm, she hastily made a spin to avoid it, but she was still hit with a whip, only to see her sleeve tear, and a blood scar appeared on her arm hehe.
Zhong Xuan raised her eyes to see Jun Qian Che, tilted her head and said in a low voice, “Your Highness the Crown Prince, what has my daughter done wrong?”
Jun Qian Che froze, the men behind him did not have a reason, they fought with Jun Qian Hao’s men, he fixed his eyes and realized that what was in front of him was not Mu Zi Yan, his eyes sank, “How could Second Miss Zhong be here”
“Your Highness the Crown Prince.” Jun Qian Hao rushed forward and when he saw the red marks on Zhong Xuan’s arm, he raised his eyes to Jun Qian Che.
When Jun Qian Che saw Jun Qian Hao and remembered Jun Qian Yu, he was immediately annoyed and did not stop the killing of the two sides behind him, but sat on the back of his horse and looked at Jun Qian Hao coldly.
Zhong Xuan, however, felt that something was amiss and hurriedly shouted coldly, “Stop.”
When the guards heard Zhong Xuan’s words, they hastened to stop, but Jun Qian Che hadn’t given any orders, so the other party’s men were still wielding their swords.
Zhong Xuan raised her eyes to look at Jun Qian Che, “Your Highness the Crown Prince, this is a misunderstanding.”
“Misunderstanding,” Jun Qian Che snorted coldly, “What misunderstanding?”
“Inside this carriage sits Miss Mu, the Third Highness was ordered to send Miss Mu back to her home, but unexpectedly met an assassin halfway, and now Miss Mu is nowhere to be found.” Zhong Xuan suppressed the anger in the bottom of her heart, this day this whip’s revenge, she will certainly remember in her heart, in the future a thousand times to return.
Jun Qian Che laughed coldly as he listened to Zhong Xuan’s words, “It’s quite a coincidence.”
Jun Qianhao watched as his guards were beaten and killed by the Crown Prince, his eyes flashed with a cold light as he said in a low voice, “Exactly.”
“Since this is a misunderstanding, this palace has to rush to the palace to resume orders, so I won’t bother third brother in his search for Miss Mu.” Jun Qian Che said with a smile, then led the men and horses to cross past him.
Jun Qianhao’s eyes condensed and he turned to Zhong Xuan, “Withdraw.”
“Mu Zi Yan,” Zhong Xuan said in a deep voice, she had really underestimated Mu Zi Yan.
At this time, Mu Zi Yan had already brought Su Qin Rou back to Marquis Mu’s mansion and was landing outside the mansion when she saw Jun Qian Yu and Qi Xuan standing in front of her.
“It’s a pity that the two sides of the crowd didn’t come to blows and have a nasty fight.” Jun Qian Yu said coolly.
Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes and looked at him, “It’s getting late, is Your Fifth Highness going back to the palace”
“No hurry no hurry.” Jun Qian Yu stood with his hands in the air, smiling in an extraordinarily charming and stirring manner, “Now if I go back, the Crown Prince will be able to spare me”
Seeing him say so, Mu Zi Yan faintly raised her eyebrows, “Then Fifth Highness can return to the State Duke’s Mansion with Cousin, it’s not peaceful in Marquis Mu’s Mansion tonight either.”
Jun Qian Yu had only come to take a look at her, and seeing that she was safe and sound, he was also at ease, turning his eyes to Qi Xuan, “Qi Shizi, since the people have looked at them, I will return to the State Duke’s Mansion with you.”
Qi Xuan raised his eyes to look at Mu Zi Yan, “Cousin, it’s good that you’re fine.”
Su Qinrou was still a bit stunned at the moment and looked a bit sluggish, raising her hand and tugging on Mu Ziyan’s sleeve, “Sister Mu, I’ll stay here with you tonight.”
Mu Zi Yan knew that Su Qin Rou was stunned by the situation just now, so she nodded slightly, “Good.”
Mu Zi Yan looked at Qi Xuan and whispered, “Cousin, be careful.”
“Good.” Qi Xuan answered in a warm voice and turned around to leave the Marquis Mu Mansion with Jun Qian Yu.
Mu Zi Yan turned her eyes to look at Su Qin Rou, the two of them into the house, Bi Yun in the palace before they did not follow, and then wait for Mu Zi Yan out of the palace, which came back along with.
“Eldest Miss, but first go to Madam’s place” Bi Yun asked in a low voice.
“Go back to Smokefall Courtyard first.” Mu Zi Yan saw that Su Qin Rou had been tugging on her sleeve, so she knew that she was afraid of being scared today.
When she returned to Smokefall Courtyard, Mu Zi Yan looked to Bi Yun, “Take good care of Sister Su.”
“Yes.” Bi Yun answered with her head hanging down.
Su Qinrou saw that Mu Zi Yan was going to leave and quickly opened her lips, “Sister Mu, what are you going to do to go”
“I’m going to see my mother.” Mu Zi Yan looked at Su Qin Rou, “Sister Su, don’t worry, this courtyard is safe, no one will come.”
“En.” Su Qinruo nodded, then let go of Mu Ziyan’s sleeve.
Mu Zi Yan softly said, “There is Bi Yun to accompany you, you rest well, I will be back soon.”
“Oh.” Su Qinruo nodded her head in response, gradually regaining some of her sanity.
Seeing her like this, Mu Zi Yan sighed quietly before turning around and exiting the Smoke Fall Courtyard.
Bi Yun saw Su Qin Rou’s expression was a bit stagnant, afraid that she had never seen that kind of battle, she carefully went up, “Miss Su, the slave girl serves you to go to bed.”
“En.” Su Qinruo faintly answered, then entered the inner room.
Bi Yun carefully followed, and then ordered Cui Hong went to play the hot water brought in, carefully served Su Qin Rou wash makeup, Su Qin Rou did not go to the side of the house, but directly lying in the Mu Zi Yan’s bed couch.
Biyun sat on the low couch outside the bed and kept watch.
Mu Zi Yan just stepped into the Jiyue Courtyard, then heard the panicked movement inside, her eyes slightly converged, lifted her steps into the interior.
When Yun Xiang saw Mu Zi Yan come, she hurriedly went forward and saluted, “Eldest Miss, you’re back”
“How is Mother,” Mu Zi Yan asked softly.
“Madam is not seeing well.” Rue sighed quietly.
“En.” Mu Zi Yan’s brows knit tightly as she lifted her steps and entered the inner room, and saw Qi lying on the bed, looking weary.
Mu Lingxuan sat on the side, and when he saw Mu Ziyan come, he whispered, “Sister.”
“Brother.” Mu Zi Yan slightly blessed herself, and the two siblings looked at each other and smiled.
“Eldest Miss, you have finally returned.” Sister Cui was really relieved to see Mu Ziyan come back safe and sound.
Mu Zi Yan smiled lightly and went forward, walking to the side of the bed, carefully surveying Qi’s complexion, “Mother, is it better”
“Seeing you come back safely makes me feel better.” Qi raises her hand to hold Mu Zi Yan’s hand, her palm is very cold.
Mu Zi Yan’s eyes flashed with a flash of ghostly light, only to feel that something was wrong, glancing around with her afterglow, then she slowly got up, “Mother, you rest well, I’ll talk to my brother about what’s going on in the palace.”
“Good.” Qi saw that Mu Zi Yan’s complexion was not abnormal, and then she put her heart down.
Mu Zi Yan and Mu Ling Xuan together out of the Jiyue courtyard, she whispered, “Who has come in this house”
“It’s all from the courtyard, there are no outsiders.” Mu Lingxuan truthfully replied.
“Not right.” Mu Zi Yan thought back carefully, “Something’s not right at Mother’s place.”
“How is it wrong,” Mu Lingxuan also froze a bit at this moment and asked in a low voice.
“Brother, don’t you think Mother’s aura is not normal” Mu Zi Yan asked softly, her eyes flashing with a ghostly light.
“I thought it was because Mother was pretending too realistically.” Mu Lingxuan frowned slightly, “You girl, are you suspecting that there is someone in mother’s courtyard”
“En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded her head and responded, “Brother, think for yourself, besides you and Sister Cui, Dr. Zheng, who else has been close to Mother”
“Chun Xiang.” Mu Lingxuan said as he raised his eyes to look at Mu Zi Yan.
“She,” Mu Zi Yan mused for a moment, “what did she do”
“It’s just that she put the objects on Mother’s head back into the trousseau, and yes, she also put Mother’s scented sachet under the brocade pillow.” Mu Lingxuan said in a low voice, “This is mother’s habit.”
“There is something wrong with that incense bag.” Mu Zi Yan sneered, “I smelled a faint odor when I approached Mother just now.”
“How come I didn’t notice a thing” Mu Lingxuan couldn’t help but feel a little strange.
Mu Zi Yan came a little closer to Mu Ling Xuan, “Brother, she deliberately covered it up with the smell of medicine, so you didn’t notice, however, I am exceptionally sensitive to scent, so I smelled a hint of something wrong, brother, don’t hit the hay.”
“En.” Mu Lingxuan frowned, “What should we do about the incense bag?”
“Change it and act as if nothing happened.” Mu Zi Yan faintly opened her lips.
“Good.” Mu Lingxuan’s eyes narrowed slightly before he said, “If it’s really Chunxiang, she’s hiding too deeply.”
“Maybe this is the old madam’s killer app.” Mu Zi Yan and Mu Ling Xuan maintained the posture of whispering, the two of them did not look abnormal, so people from afar would not be able to tell the difference.
“It’s fortunate that you’re a bit more alert, or else Mother would have been in danger again, I’m afraid.” Mu Lingxuan sighed quietly.
Mu Zi Yan shook her head and said, “Mother is not oblivious, perhaps even more so than me.”
“Hey.” Mu Lingxuan looked at Mu Zi Yan, who had a deeper mind than his own, and was more than just should be happy or sad.
Mu Zi Yan laughed lightly, “Brother, don’t sigh, I came back from the palace, it’s also a rare happy event.”
“But what did you run into,” Mu Lingxuan asked in a hurry.
“En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded, “And it’s fun.”
“But seeing that you haven’t suffered, I feel relieved.” Only then did Mu Lingxuan let out a sigh of relief, and the siblings turned around and headed back to the courtyard.
Just in time to see Chunxiang entering with the soup, the two of them exchanged glances and followed as if nothing had happened.
Sister Cui took the tonic from Chunxiang’s hands, turned to look at the engraved funnel on the side, and then looked at Mu Ziyan and Mu Lingxuan as they entered, then stepped forward, “Eldest Young Master, Eldest Young Miss.”
“Sister Cui, I’ll stay here with Mother.” Mu Zi Yan smiled and took the medicine bowl from Sister Cui’s hands.
“Yes, old slave will go prepare some food over.” Sister Cui answered with a smile, then retreated.
Chunxiang, on the other hand, stood aside and hung her head.
Mu Zi Yan slowly sat down and gazed at Qi with downcast eyes, “Mother, this medicine has to be drunk while it’s hot.”
“Leave it for now, I’ll talk to you for a while.” Qi waved her hand and said, her remaining light drifting over Chunxiang on the side before holding Mu Zi Yan’s hand and patting it gently.
When Mu Zi Yan saw this behavior of Qi’s, she knew that she already knew that Chun Xiang had a problem, and with a light smile, she answered, “Good.”
Mu Lingxuan slowly got up, “It seems that having my sister with me is enough.”
