Chapter 195 – Drawing Out the Black Hand Behind the Scenes (Second Shift) (2 / 2)
by Jessie@AFNCC“Then how should the case be closed,” Zhang Zong spread out his hands, clearly at a bit of a loss.
The corner of Mu Zi Yan’s mouth slightly hooked, “This skeleton is no longer useful even if it’s put away.”
“Smokey ah, you’ve confused me.” Lady Lu, however, looked at Mu Zi Yan at this moment and said with furrowed brows.
“It’s someone deliberately trying to wind me up.” Mu Zi Yan smiled
Smoke said with a smirk.
The crowd was silent for a moment and seemed to understand, “Cousin Zi Yan, it’s hard to believe that this matter”
“There are already some eyebrows.” Mu Zi Yan said with a light smile.
“Smokey, since you already have an idea, why don’t you tell us about it,” Zhang Zong’s eyes flashed brightly as he spoke with a smile.
“We’ll know later.” Mu Zi Yan said in a mysterious manner.
“Later,” Zhang Zong was silent for a moment, then said, “Okay, then wait.”
“Sister Mu, I’m really curious, how did you find the clues,” Su Qinrou looked forward to it.
Mu Zi Yan was silent for a moment, then smiled lightly and said, “The mountain man has his own brilliant plan.”
“Hey.” Su Qinrou sighed quietly when she saw her answer like this.
The chapter reporter looked at her, as if he had thought of something, and then said, “Cousin Zi Yan is waiting for Miss Qi, right?”
“En.” Mu Zi Yan answered softly.
“It seems that things are really coming together.” Staffer’s lips curled lightly, raising his eyes to look at her with a smile.
At this time, all of the people were in their own minds, and for a while they were surprisingly speechless.
After waiting for a while, Mu Zi Yan was the first to speak, “Lei Shi Zi, please follow me.”
“Good.” Lei Yichen nodded his head and replied, then walked forward with Mu Ziyan.
When she reached a place, Mu Zi Yan handed him the token, “Lei Shizi, I should return this token to its original owner.”
“What is the meaning of this,” Lei Yichen asked, looking at her in disbelief.
“This token is for mobilizing the Lei family’s men, and it is also the last manpower left behind by Marquis Lei.” Mu Zi Yan looked at him and said.
“I see.” Lei Yichen’s eyes narrowed slightly, “It seems that father expected something to happen early on.”
“En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded her head and responded, “Therefore, this item is something that I can never be in a position to leave behind, and Lei Shizi needs this token even more.”
“Smoke can be so frank, in turn, let me ashamed of myself.” Lei Yichen was thinking, if it was someone else, I think that after taking this token and knowing its usefulness, I will definitely not return it and tell him the truth, but when Mu Zi Yan handed it to him, there was no greed in her eyes.
Mu Zi Yan smiled lightly and said, “What’s wrong with that, this thing shouldn’t have belonged to me in the first place, so I won’t take it for myself.”
“Good.” Lei Yichen couldn’t help but marvel.
Mu Zi Yan did not say any more, so the two of them went back together, and Qi Xue’er happened to come and said in a low voice, “Elder cousin sister.”
“En.” Mu Zi Yan looked at her, “How did it go?”
“It’s already done.” Qi Xue’er nodded her head in response.
“Good.” Mu Zi Yan hooked her lips in a shallow smile, “In that case, wait patiently.”
“Eldest cousin, just wait like this,” Qi Xue’er thought that these days are very torturous, and now it’s quiet, it’s really a little unaccustomed.
Mu Zi Yan nodded her head and responded, “Not bad, waiting is it.”
“Eldest cousin is going to rest for a while, you were up all night.” Qi Xue’er asked worriedly.
“Good.” Mu Zi Yan then got up and raised her eyes to look at them, “Everyone make yourself at home, I’m going to rest for a while.”
“En.” Everyone hung their heads and replied, then they saw Mu Zi Yan turn around and enter the house.
Because of Jun Qianhao’s presence, the crowd was silent, and if it were the old days, the atmosphere would have been lively.
Su Qinrou looked at Hou Yi Yi, and when the two exchanged looks, they got up and looked at Niangzi Lu, “Sister Lu, I’ll go check on Qian’er.”
“Good.” Niangzi Lu was thinking of leaving, when she saw Su Qinruo say so, she happily answered, Qi Xue’er followed suit and the four of them got up, so they left together.
Staffer raised his eyes to Lei Yichen and then asked, “How has Brother Lei been doing lately?”
“I’m sorry for Brother Zhang’s concern.” Lei Yichen whispered.
Mu Lingxuan raised his eyes to Jun Qianhao, “I wonder what Your Third Highness has to say about the new policy proposed by the Emperor at the court today”
Jun Qianhao did not expect Mu Lingxuan to suddenly mention this, he was silent for a moment, “Father was able to implement a new government, I’m sure he had some considerations.”
At this time, the eyes of all the people also fell on him, so they also began to chat about the affairs of state together.
Mu Zi Yan entered the house and did not rest, but left the Beijing Zhaoyin government office and went to the State Duke’s Mansion.
When they arrived, they quietly hid themselves and stood hidden behind her, “Master, there has not been any movement.”
“En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded and responded, “The opponent is very cunning, just be patient.”
“Yes.” Hidden One hung his head and answered, dodging away.
Waiting until the sky darkens, there is still no sound, but Mu Zi Yan is still waiting patiently.
Beijing Zhaoyin government office, Jun Qianhao see the time is almost up, but do not see Mu Zi Yan out, more or less understand some, raised his eyes to look at them a few people, see their expression is not different, since they understand, they know early in the morning.
He sighed helplessly, he was ultimately slower than these people.
As for Mu Zi Yan, on the other hand, he was determined to win.
Su Qinrou looked at Niangzi Lu, “Sister Lu, this Qian’er is really smart.”
“Yes, he loves to be lively and likes you guys to accompany him the most.” Lady Lu said with a light smile.
“It’s just lovable to look at.” Hou Yi Yi gently held Zhang Qian’s pair of small, fleshy hands, finding it too amazing.
I think this marquis where there is no aunt concubine son concubine daughter, even now, the Hou family and Su family will inevitably have a new baby born, but Su Qinru and Hou Yi Yi but really do not like up.
The women’s precepts and virtues that they have learned since childhood explain that women follow their fathers at home and their husbands when they get married, and that the seven outings will make it clear to them that it is too normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, and that if he does not have any concubines, he will be laughed at when he goes out.
Su Qinrou is with feelings, she does not know what will happen in the future, but also do not know when in the end should be for Mu Lingxuan concubinage, if Mu Lingxuan know that she is not married, will give him the idea of concubinage thing, will certainly cry and laugh.
Hou Yi Yi married into the Zhang Houfu compared to Su Qinrou, since it is Yin
After all, the things involved here are quite complicated.
These two looked at each other and sighed to themselves.
Seeing the two of them like this, Empress Lu couldn’t help but laugh and say, “This is remembering something, how did you suddenly become sentimental?”
“Nothing.” The two returned together, not willing to speak these little thoughts out since.
Niangzi Lu didn’t ask much, but she had more or less guessed it.
So, wait until late at night, the people look at the situation, has come to the curfew time, since there is no need to go back, then also so stay in the Beijing Zhaoyin government office.
Mu Zi Yan hiding in the dark continue to wait, if the person behind the illusion is really related, since it will not let outsiders know the secret of the illusion, will certainly appear to the illusion of the books destroyed, then she only need to keep an eye on will be able to catch the black hand behind the scene, all the mystery can also be solved.
She did not expect that some of the ordinary things that she saw in her previous life, in this life actually hidden such a huge conspiracy and secret, if she were to change to her previous life, perhaps even if she knew, she could not do anything about it, after all, her previous life was too dependent on Leng Hanfeng, and simply did not have that ability to find out the reason.
And now their own different, after a thousand years, and in that world to learn a lot of things, coupled with some of the judgment of the past life, now can find out these to, but also really not easy, this hidden behind the person who is, she is bound to catch out, otherwise, the State House in the future will surely repeat the same mistakes, compared to the past life is afraid that it will be even more miserable.
She secretly pondered, not long after, Hidden One once again fell, “Master, there is still no movement, you go back and rest, subordinates will keep an eye on it.”
“No.” Mu Zi Yan said in a low voice, “This person is very cunning, there can’t be the slightest negligence, wanting to catch him must not be easy, so lure him out, but can follow the vine to find the melon.”
“Yes.” Hidden One understood Mu Zi Yan’s concerns, so he stopped advising her and continued to dodge and hide in the shadows.
After waiting for another hour like this, it was already three nights before his eyes, and Zhang Zong’s end still hadn’t gotten the news.
Su Qinrou several people have a sleepy, but now also dare not sleep, so sex in the house head also can not stay, they went out of the house, went to the hall, see the third prince several people also no sleepy, a line of people will sit in a place to start chatting up.
Zhang Zong frowned, raised his eyes to look at them several people, Su Qinrou want to find easy to talk about, then opened his mouth and said, “so counting, sister Mu’s maturity ceremony will soon arrive, you can prepare for surprises.”
“Surprises,” the chapter commented with a raised eyebrow, “as long as there aren’t any scares when the time comes.”
“Rather.” Hou Yi Yi responded rather agreeably, “It seems like we need to think of a way to keep an extra eye on things then as well.”
“Not bad.” Qi Xue’er nodded her head and responded, “I heard that the Empress Dowager will personally preside at that time, so I’m sure a lot of people will come.”
“By the way, I heard that the fifth princess and the fifth emperor’s son-in-law will also come.” Su Qinrou said as she looked at the few of them.
“I have also heard about this matter.” Mu Lingxuan had not expected his sister’s maturity ceremony to be so lively.
Jun Qianhao whispered at this moment, “In that case, I’m afraid that Smokey’s maturity ceremony will be very lively.”
“En.” Qi Xuan nodded his head and responded, “The more so, the more careful you have to be.”
“I think that on this kind of occasion, no one should make trouble,” Hou Yi Yi said, but she turned her thoughts around.
“That’s not necessarily true.” Su Qinruo whispered, “Some people just like to make trouble.”
She even dropped her gaze on Jun Qianhao as she spoke, and then she avoided it.
Jun Qianhao raised his eyebrows, naturally knowing what she meant by her words, and said in a low voice, “This Palace will keep an eye on it.”
“Third Highness knows who my daughter is talking about,” Su Qinruo continued, “It’s just that my daughter is overly concerned, and I hope that Third Highness won’t be blamed.”
Jun Qianhao smiled lightly and said, “Miss Su’s heart is straight and what she said is not unreasonable.”
The atmosphere stiffened again for a moment, and the crowd fell silent once more.
Waiting until the fourth day, Mu Zi Yan saw a figure suddenly fell, straight into the medicine hut, and then flew away, the speed of the speed, in an instant there was no trace.
The person who arranged behind her had quickly followed, Mu Zi Yan rushed into the medicine hut, then she saw the scroll placed on the table was taken away, her eyes flashed a cold light, evil smile, then she saw the hidden one fall.
“Master, it was too fast, my subordinate lost him.” Hidden One hung his head and said.
“En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded and responded, “It doesn’t matter, it’s expected.”
“My subordinate is incompetent.” Hidden One knelt down and said.
“It has nothing to do with you, it’s him who is too cunning, it’s not him who came.” Mu Zi Yan said faintly.
“My subordinate doesn’t understand.” Hidden One spoke in disbelief.
“I’ll tell you later.” Mu Zi Yan said indifferently, “Order people to continue to keep an eye on it.”
“Yes.” Hidden One flashed away.
Mu Zi Yan took out the medicinal powder from her bosom, and then sprinkled it down, then she saw the mark left on the table, and then she looked at the ground, she laughed coldly and said, “Do you think that I won’t be able to find your trace if you think so”
Mu Zi Yan turned around and went out of the medicine hut, then she saw Qi Yu’er holding the “spirit dog” and came, “Eldest cousin, I personally brought this spirit dog.”
“En.” Mu Zi Yan raised her hand and touched Qi Yu Er’s lovely hair bun, and took the spirit dog from her hand, and then turned around and brought the spirit dog inside the medicine hut, pointing out the place where the powder was sprinkled to the spirit dog, which sniffed, and then barked a few times, and turned around and rushed out.
“Follow.” Mu Zi Yan said in a cold voice.
“Yes.” Hidden One, who was hiding in the shadows, answered.
Qi Yu’er walked up, “Eldest cousin, I’ll accompany you over.”
“Good.” Mu Zi Yan nodded her head and replied, then walked forward with Qi Yu’er.
Mrs. Guo Gong also rushed over, “Smoke girl, caught it”
“It should be soon.” Mu Zi Yan said as she raised her eyes to look at the State Duchess.
“That’s good.” Mrs. Guo Gong smiled and answered, turning her eyes to look at Qi Yu’er, “You girl, the
You’re a spooky one, you girl.”
“Mother, big cousin sister is really great.” Qi Yu’er tilted her head and smiled as she complimented Mu Zi Yan.
“En.” The State Duchess responded with her own approval.
Mu Zi Yan looked at Qi Yu’er who was smilingly looking at herself as she laughed, “Second cousin is also very good.”
Qi Yu’er grew happier and happier, following Mu Zi Yan just about glued herself to her body.
Mrs. State Duke looked also could not help but smile, although the situation looks a little tense, but it is rare to have such a relaxed atmosphere, but also no previous anger.
When she waited until she reached the courtyard in front of her, Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes and glanced at it, her eyes flashed with a cold light, “This is Third Aunt’s courtyard”
“Exactly.” Mrs. Guo Gong’s eyes sank, “How could it be here?”
Mu Zi Yan is more or less some suspicion, afraid from yesterday’s Qi Rui Er things, and that tassel will be stored doubts, did not expect things really so, she raised her eyes to look at, whispered, “Go in.”
“Yes.” The guard in front of him bowed and answered.
Waiting for the courtyard to be knocked open, the night watchwoman opened the courtyard door, to see Mu Zi Yan and the State Duke and Duchess of China, since they were surprised, that sleepiness also followed the dissipation of smoke, hit a jolt, and hastily kneeled down.
The Duchess of State lifted her steps to enter, but the spirit dog was faster than her, but when the spirit dog went in, it wandered around the courtyard, apparently without breath.
Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly as she secretly said, “What a fast maneuver, to have masked the aura so quickly.”
Qi Yu’er looked at the spirit dog suspiciously and turned her eyes to look at Mu Zi Yan, “Eldest cousin, what’s going on”
“Looks like the clues are forgotten again.” Mu Zi Yan said in a cold voice.
“Broken again,” the State Duchess heard, raised her eyes and saw the hurried out of the third lady, her eyes darkened, since there is no good face.
“What happened,” the Third Mistress looked at Mu Zi Yan and the State Duke’s wife in disbelief, stepping forward and asking in a low voice.
“Search.” The State Duchess said in a cold voice.
“And slow down.” Mu Zi Yan turned her eyes to look at the State Duchess, “Great Aunt, even if you search nowadays, you won’t find anything.”
“What exactly is going on here,” the Third Lady asked in a deep voice with a cold expression, clearly exasperated by the behavior of the Duchess of State and Mu Zi Yan.
Mu Zi Yan stepped forward and said in a low voice, “Third aunt, please forgive me, I am catching a thief.”
“Catching thieves”, the Third Mistress was obviously stunned, and then snorted coldly, “catching thieves to my yard to catch”.
“It was only because the spirit dog followed that thief’s scent over that I found this place.” Mu Zi Yan continued.
“So it is.” The Third Mistress suppressed the anger in her heart, “Then where are the thieves?”
“The scent is gone, and the spirit dogs can’t be found.” Mu Zi Yan continued.
“That is not caught,” the third lady looked at Mu Zi Yan, “the county princess, this state government has always been stable, how come you came to cause so many things to it.”
When Mu Zi Yan heard the Third Lady say this, her eyes flashed with a flash of ghostly light, and then she saw the Duke of State’s wife coldly humming, “Yes, I’m catching a thief, so how come this thief doesn’t go anywhere but to come to the Third Sister’s place?”
“Sister-in-law, what do you mean by this” The Third Mistress raised her eyes and looked directly at her, “Catching a thief in the middle of the night and forcing your way into my courtyard, is it possible that I am still not the one who is responsible?”
The Duchess of State was also not polite, “If there were not thieves, why would I come to Third Sister’s courtyard in the middle of the night?”
“If that’s the case, then I’ll have to find someone to judge.” The Third Mistress said and headed out the door.
Mu Zi Yan, however, observed the Third Mistress’s expression and turned her eyes to look at Sister Ruan, who was following not far away with her eyes downcast, and saw the spirit dog walk up abruptly, circle around her heel, and then leave again immediately afterward.
Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed and she said in a cold voice, “Slow down.”
“Sheriff, can it be that you suspect it was me” Third Lady turned her eyes to look at Mu Zi Yan and asked in a cold voice.
Mu Zi Yan stepped forward and looked at Third Mistress, “Where is Third Aunt going?”
“Since I went to seek the old madam’s reasoning, this midnight still not let the peace and quiet,” the third lady raised her voice, “I do not know, this state house when to change the main mother, so that the county princess to take charge of the matter.”
State Duchess heard, immediately will be angry, “the third younger sibling, what do you mean by this is not it is not possible that this thief is really in your yard head you this is in the intention of harboring.”
