Chapter 142: Almost Fooled (2 / 2)

Zhang Zong walked in with large strides, and when he saw Mu Zi Yan and Zhang Staffer talking happily, he sighed, “What’s all this about”

“What’s going on here,” Mu Zi Yan asked in a low voice as she looked at Zhang Zong’s iron-clad face.

“Go see for yourself.” Zhang Zong coldly snorted.

Mu Zi Yan and Zhang Staffer exchanged a glance before lifting their steps and heading out.

Waiting outside the public hall, they saw a person lying on the ground, the two of them forward, after seeing who it was, Mu Zi Yan’s brows slightly knit, “Crown Prince”

“How could the Crown Prince have been left here”, the Staffer said, growing more and more puzzled.

Zhang Zong looked at Mu Zi Yan, “What do you think should be done”

“Since we have to send a message to the palace.” Mu Zi Yan looked at him, “The Crown Prince collapsed at the Beijing Zhaoyin’s government office for no reason, this is a big deal, someone is openly provoking the imperial power.”

“Alright, I will enter the palace overnight.” Zhang Zong lifted his steps and left after saying that.

Chapter Staffer looked at Mu Zi Yan, “It seems this is the big deal you were talking about.”

“Just who is it” Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly, “What is his purpose in doing so”

“Not Zhong Xuan,” Staffer asked next.

“It won’t be her.” Mu Zi Yan shook her head and said, “This matter was done in a somewhat puzzling manner, and the purpose was unknown, Zhong Xuan couldn’t do such a thing.”

“You mean this person is not well thought out in his actions” Zhang Staffer couldn’t help but laugh when he heard Mu Zi Yan comment so pertinently on Zhong Xuan.

“It’s just that they acted too quickly.” Mu Zi Yan sighed, “I think their purpose is not the Crown Prince, but to use the Crown Prince’s name to deal with the Emperor.”

“I’m getting more and more confused as I listen.” Chapter Staffer looked at Mu Zi Yan with a slight frown.

“What are the characteristics of the women that the flower pickers have been abusing these days” Mu Zi Yan looked at the chapter Featured and asked.

“This I do not know since.” The chapter shook his head and said, he was not the capital governor, so he did not know the specific details since he did not know.

Mu Zi Yan continued, “All of these women are in the middle of their childhood, all of them are Jasper years old, moreover, they all have one characteristic, that is, there is a Yan character in their names.”

“So, what is this flower picker doing this for,” Staffer asked immediately afterward.

“This person long lived in the greenhouse, have a body of lightweight, and to women’s clothing show people, he likes the woman should be that Yun’er’s young lady, unexpectedly that young lady in Jasper’s time to die, and was destroyed innocence to throw well suicide, that young lady’s name has a Yan word.” Mu Zi Yan said in a low voice, “Therefore, he suffered a great blow, or maybe he wanted to find solace, so he was looking around for Jasper Nianhua, the woman whose name had the word Yan, and Yun’er was his cover.”

“There are still people in this world who are so out of their element,” Staffer said, feeling only incredulous.

Mu Zi Yan laughed lowly, “When someone stays in a specific place for a long period of time, their psyche will change by itself.”

“It seems that Cousin Ziyan has solved the case.” Chapter Staffer went on.

“Not bad, that person was followed and lost this night, and after that Yun’er was also killed, I think that person is afraid that he is being watched, and someone has used his name to lay this trap.” Mu Zi Yan said indifferently.

“If it’s really as you said, they used that flower picker to lure you away, and then left the Crown Prince at the Beijing Zhaoyin’s government office, after the Emperor knew about it, he would definitely go out of the palace, and when he hurriedly went out of the palace in the middle of the night, he wouldn’t have brought too many guards with him, and those people could have taken the opportunity to assassinate them halfway through the night.” Chapter Staffer pondered for a moment, looked at Mu Zi Yan and said.

“Assassination is but the next best thing.” Mu Zi Yan continued, “The crown prince’s body cannot be moved.”

“That is why you did not help him up.” The chapter reporter looked at Mu Zi Yan, “It was just that it was Senior Zhang who realized it, what if he had moved”

“According to his nature, since he will not move, he just came back, then this kind of thing happened, since there are also many suspicions.” Mu Zi Yan looked at the chapter staff, then said, “Now only waiting for the emperor to come out of the palace.”

“If the Emperor does not come out of the palace,” the chapter staffer asked, looking at Mu Zi Yan.

“Then it depends on who will be by His Majesty’s side at this moment.” Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly.

“The emperor will not go out of the palace because of the crown prince, unless at this moment someone is blowing a pillow wind,” chapter Staffer’s eyes flashed a flash of light, “it seems that tonight there must be a good show to see, can not wait until tomorrow.”

“En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded her head, “But, there are still some things I don’t understand.”

“Tell me.” Staffer glanced down at the crown prince, the weather in late fall is a bit cold, and the crown prince was left outside the residence, blowing in the wind, but no one dared to come forward to carry him back.

Mu Zi Yan said faintly, “Doing so is too risky, why would they do that”

“Killing the Emperor must be for the throne.” Chapter Staffer said in a low voice, “If the Emperor dies, the Crown Prince and the Third Prince will have a fight, then the person behind it can reap the benefits.”

“Cousin Zhang has a good point.” Mu Zi Yan nodded her head and responded, “Yet, it is not the right time.”

“Why not when,” asked Staffer, puzzled.

“Even so, the crown prince and the third prince fight a you die for me, but the forces in their hands can not be underestimated, ask that behind the people who reap the benefits of the fishers and what chips to ensure that they can really sit on that seat” Mu Zi Yan shook his head, “No, I should also overlooked what. “

“When the Emperor leaves the palace, everything will be answered.” Chapters said as he looked at her.

“I’ll think about it.” Mu Zi Yan then stepped forward to look carefully at the crown prince, turned his eyes to the chapter Staffer, and then stepped forward to touch it.

“I’ll do it.” Chapter Staffer stopped in front of Mu Zi Yan and bent down to look at the Crown Prince.

At this moment, the crown prince suddenly opened his eyes fiercely, raised his palm and struck at the Staffer, the Staffer hastily retreated backward, the prince’s palm wind was very strong, and the move was extremely fast, so the Staffer did not avoid it, and was hard to take a palm.

Mu Zi Yan secretly screamed, “No good, it’s a trick.”

Her eyes sank, “Hidden One, quickly stop Elder Zhang, do not let him enter the palace.”

“Yes.” Hidden One answered and dashed away.

“Hidden three, hidden four, take this person down.” Mu Zi Yan looked straight at the Crown Prince in front of her, and stepped forward to support Zhang Staffer, “Cousin Zhang, are you alright”

“It’s just a slap in the face, no harm done.” The chapter whispered.

“Sister Lu,” Mu Zi Yan shouted towards the back room.

Niangzi Lu rushed out when she heard the noise, she didn’t expect that just after leaving for a while, something big had happened.

She looked to one side of the chapter Staffer, then to Mu Zi Yan, “This is”

“Cousin Zhang received a slap, you should help him inside.” Mu Zi Yan said as she looked at Niangzi Lu.

“No.” Staffer murmured, “How can I leave you here alone?”

“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.” Mu Zi Yan coldly stared at Chapter Staffer, her face cold and heavy.

When Niangzi Lu saw this, she hurriedly supported the Chapter Staffer, “Go in first to heal your wounds, and come out later.”

Staffer wanted to refuse, but when he met Mu Ziyan’s eyes, he could only turn away.

Mu Zi Yan looked towards Hidden Three and Hidden Four entangled with that Crown Prince, but she thought about whether Hidden One had stopped Zhang Zong, and if he had entered the palace, he would have truly fallen for the plan.

Her eyes condensed, looking straight at the crown prince in front of her, and she said in a deep voice, “Hidden Three and Hidden Four, kill him.”

“Yes.” Hidden Three and Hidden Four answered in hushed tones, and then they sped up their moves.

Within moments, the man was kicked to the ground, and Hidden Four slapped him in the face, killing the man instantly.

Mu Zi Yan whispered, “Tear the human skin mask off your face.”

“Yes.” Hidden Three led the order and raised his hand to tear it open, so he saw the man’s face.

“Master, this is the Blue Family’s Hidden Guard.” Hidden Four stepped forward and said.

“The Blue Family,” Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly, “Sure enough.”

“Master, this person,” Hidden Third said as he looked at Mu Zi Yan.

“Take it away.” Mu Zi Yan said in a cold voice.

“Yes.” Hidden Three and Hidden Four picked up the man and flashed away.

A short while later, Staffer Zhang and Empress Lu came out in a hurry, Staffer Zhang’s face was obviously a lot whiter, but fortunately unhindered, she raised her eyes to look at him and whispered, “You are not allowed to be like this in the future, I haven’t yet asked you to settle the score for what happened last time.”

“If there is a next time, I will still be like this.” Staffer sees Mu Zi Yan still remembering the last time, but in his heart, he does not feel good, he Staffer can’t even protect his favorite person, he is worthy to stay by her side!

Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look at him, “In case you don’t have the ability to defend yourself when the time comes, how can you talk about protection”

Chapter Staffer gave a slight beat, pursed his lips slightly, his handsome face glowing white, he suddenly felt that he seemed to have gradually become unlike him, especially in the face of danger, the first thing that came to mind was to stand in front of her, but he lost his mind and forgot how to protect.

When Niangzi Lu saw that Mu Zi Yan’s words were a bit heavy, she said in a low voice, “Well, what should we do now”

“Where is the Crown Prince,” Mu Zi Yan said in a cold voice.

“Master, the Crown Prince is at the Crown Prince’s Residence.” Hidden Second reported in a low voice.

“Where is the Third Prince,” Mu Zi Yan continued to ask.

“Third Prince is now in a place with Second Miss Zhong.” Hidden Second continued to return.

“Where is Concubine Yun,” Mu Zi Yan said in a deep voice.

“Tonight it is Consort Yun who serves the bed.” Hidden Two’s voice floated in the night sky, and only she could hear it clearly.

Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly, “It seems that it really is the Blue Family.”

“What is the Blue Family doing this for” asked the Staffer in disbelief.

“To remove obstacles.” Mu Zi Yan coldly laughed, “Last time, the twelfth prince’s action of almost being killed seems to have thoroughly irritated Concubine Yun, who is afraid that she is also going to be involved in the battle to seize the throne.”

“But the twelfth prince is still young.” The chapter whispered.

“So what” Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes and looked ahead, “Yun Fei is not an ordinary woman, she has dabbled in the art of power and intrigue is not less than today’s emperor, the reason why she entrusted herself to the palace and charmed the emperor, but also just to complete the mission of the Blue Family.”

“The Blue Family’s Mission” Chapter Staffer has always known that the Blue Family is the most mysterious family.

“Not bad.” Mu Zi Yan didn’t know what the mission was, she only remembered that the Blue Family in her previous life had disappeared into obscurity after Consort Yun died, especially Lan Xin Er. Therefore, in this life, if Consort Yun hadn’t died, then there was still hope for the Blue Family.

The chapter laborer took a deep breath, “This is the case today, so I’m afraid that the days of old will be even more like walking on thin ice.”

“Cousin Zhang, the Third Prince and the Crown Prince, the Zhang family should still not interfere, otherwise the Zhang family is the next Yin family.” Mu Zi Yan looked at Zhang Staffer and said.

“I understand, but father is still stubborn.” Chapter Staffer sighed, “Otherwise, he wouldn’t have let me follow the Third Prince since I was young.”

Mu Ziyan knows how hopeless Zhang Staffer is, but she doesn’t want him to follow in the footsteps of his previous life. Mu Zixi’s path has already been cut off by her, what about Zhang Staffer’s future how should she get Zhang Staffer out of this vortex?

When the chapter reporter saw her eyes flash with a touch of gravity, he smiled lightly and said, “A great man does something, I understand what I should do.”

“Actually, Second Auntie is a smart one.” Mu Zi Yan laughed lowly, “The fact that she was able to pull herself out after seeing the old madam’s true colors shows that she is not that brainless.”

“You’re saying that all the Chapters are smart,” Chap said, flirting with himself.

“Yes.” Mu Zi Yan looked at him, “If we can get through tonight safely, tomorrow I would like to go see Second Miss Zhang.”

“What do you want to see her for,” Staffer looked at Mu Zi Yan, only to feel that there was always a layer of hazy clouds around her in front of him, whenever he got close, she disappeared without a trace, and when he took a step backward, he could see her clearly.

He knew that she was a mystery, and he wanted to willingly give up everything for that mystery.

Muzzy Smoke blinked, “Let’s see what she looks like when she sleepwalks”

Chapter Staffer’s mouth quirked, “You have that to spare.”

“I’m just looking at how much loyalty she has to Abbot Void.” Mu Zi Yan smiled wryly, then said, “I’m afraid that there is a deeper conspiracy buried here, the Marquis of Zhang has always been under the Third Prince’s surveillance, Cousin Zhang, you’d better be more careful in the future.”

“Good.” Chapter Staffer knew her concerns were right, and he readily responded.

Lady Lu felt that the conversation between these two always left her a little puzzled.

She frowned slightly, then she heard the sound of hooves coming from not far away, and when she saw Zhang Zong rolled over and dismounted, Mu Zi Yan rushed forward, “Didn’t enter the palace, did he”

“No.” Zhang Zong whispered, “Thanks for reminding me.”

“The harem is restless this day.” Mu Zi Yan said faintly, “Everything will be known when the day breaks.”

“Go back.” Zhang Zong said with a sweaty head.

“Good.” Mu Zi Yan nodded and replied, and then the four of them entered the back hall.

In the Third Prince’s Mansion, Zhong Xuan leaned back on the soft couch, the silky satin outlined her charming curves, the corner of her mouth hooked up in a seductive smile, “The Blue Family has made their move”

“Rather unexpected.” Jun Qianhao was not trying to understand why Concubine Yun wanted to make her move at this time.

“It’s just a test.” Zhong Xuan slowly got up and walked around behind Jun Qianhao before sitting to the side, her soft body leaning against his embrace, “There’s bound to be a bloodbath in the Harem tomorrow.”

“What about Father,” Jun Qianhao looked at her, “The Blue Family used Zhang Zong, wanting to eradicate Father’s close friends, but unanticipated, Zhang Zong did not fall for it.”

“How could the Emperor not know, but Concubine Yun cannot be moved.” Zhong Xuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, remembering the stupid things Mei Concubine had done, and said in a cold voice, “The Emperor wants to utilize Concubine Yun, and Concubine Yun is happy to be utilized.”

“Could it be that Father is going to make a move against me and the Crown Prince” Jun Qianhao wrapped his arms around Zhong Xuan’s slender waist and lowered his head to gently sniff the fragrance in her hair.

“En.” Zhong Xuan nodded her head, hooking the green silk on his chest and playing with it, “A baby is able to control it since, wait until after you and the Crown Prince have both lost.”

“Father has such a deep heart.” Jun Qian Hao’s eyes shot out a flash of cold light, “It’s just that I still don’t understand why the Lan family wants to make a move at this moment”

“There are problems within the Blue Family.” Zhong Xuan looked at Jun Qianhao and said, “Therefore, they had to move ahead.”

“What’s the problem,” Jun Qianhao grew more and more puzzled.

“The Blue Family is a mysterious family, with two women appearing in every generation, one as holy and beautiful as Concubine Yun, and the other as cold and frosty as Lan Xin’er.” Zhong Xuan continued, “However, the lives of these two women are trying to depend on each other, if one of them dies, the other won’t live a long life, and now that Lan Xin’er has gone off the deep end due to her cultivation of profound martial arts, she is afraid that her life won’t be long, and Consort Yun’s life will disappear with her, and the Blue Family can’t afford to wait any longer.”

“I see, then if Concubine Yun is killed, then Lan Xin’er won’t be able to live” Jun Qianhao looked at Zhong Xuan and asked, “but losing two daughters is just a matter of losing two daughters, what’s so strange about that”

“The women of the Blue Family are honored, and if there were no more of the two of them, the Blue Family would be destroyed with them.” Zhong Xuan continued, “This is the reason why the Blue Family is so mysterious, simply because the Blue Family was cursed a hundred years ago.”

“So it is.” Jun Qianhao laughed lowly, “Then what should we do now”

“That depends on how long Lan Xin’er can live, and what the Emperor is ultimately scheming about how long he wants Concubine Yun to live” Zhong Xuan rolled her eyes, “Or perhaps this is the bargaining chip in the deal between Concubine Yun and the Emperor.”

“You mean, after this night, Father will let Concubine Yun deal with me and the Crown Prince” Jun Qian Hao’s eyes were cold as he whispered.

“Yes.” Zhong Xuan could not deny that Concubine Yun was an extremely intelligent woman, and if she were to add Mu Ziyan to the mix, the duo would surely be invincible.

“What does a woman have to fear,” Jun Qianhao snorted coldly.

“The secret art practiced by the Blue Family is a mind-grabbing one, and it’s even more profound than my little trick, thus, the Blue Family is cursed, and it’s said that back then, the first-generation head of the Blue Family buried a treasure, as well as cultivated a group of dead soldiers.” Zhong Xuan continued, “Unfortunately, the Blue Family cannot be used for me.”

“Since they cannot be used for me, they must be removed.” Jun Qianhao said in a cold voice.

“It’s not easy to get rid of the Lan family.” Zhong Xuan sighed quietly, “I didn’t realize that before I could solve one Mu Ziyan, I would have another big problem on my mind.”

“And don’t worry, if Concubine Yun does make a move, the Crown Prince and I will definitely join forces first.” Jun Qianhao faintly opened his lips.

“I’m afraid that when the time comes, the Crown Prince will choose to join forces with Concubine Yun… After all, compared to a royal son who has yet to be weaned, the Third Highness is his greatest hidden danger.” Zhong Xuan said slowly, “At that time, the Crown Prince will be like a tiger with wings.”

“How should that be” Jun Qian Hao’s heart sank, if it was true that Concubine Yun had conspired with the Crown Prince, then he could be imagined in this place.

Zhong Xuan laughed lowly, “Since Concubine Yun wants to deal with it, she must want to unite one side, if the Crown Prince can, why can’t Third Highness”

“You have a good point.” Only then did Jun Qianhao respond, “Then let’s wait for news from the palace.”

“Don’t worry, Third Highness, everything is with me.” Zhong Xuan said with a smile.
