Chapter 204 – The Virgin White Lotus (2 / 2)

Mu Zi Yan turned around and entered Wu Bao Zhai, went up and looked at the fellow, “That guest you can recognize

You recognize it.”

“There are quite a few guests coming and going here, the straw man only felt that the guest was dressed gorgeously, and it sounded like he was a broad-minded male, and did not know which family’s male he was.” The fellow was so scared that his face turned pale and said in a low voice.

“At that time, you were always accompanied” Mu Zi Yan continued to ask.

“Yes.” The fellow answered with his eyes downcast, “The grassman has been accompanying the whole time, only later when the young master and this gentleman got into an argument, the grassman took a few steps forward.”

“You stand where you were standing just now.” Mu Zi Yan said as she looked at him.

“Yes.” The fellow answered, and then stood backward at that spot.

Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes and looked at Mu Ling Xuan, “Brother, demonstrate again with second brother.”

“Good.” Mu Lingxuan readily answered.

“Elder Zhang, you and stand at that guest’s place.” Mu Zi Yan said in a low voice.

“Yes.” Zhang Zong answered with his head hanging down, then turned around and sat there.

“Good, now start.” Mu Zi Yan said in a low voice, “But you guys are watching.”

“Yes.” The people outside also poked their heads in and watched, as well as the people who were onlookers at the time of the crime.

Only looked at the crowd’s eyes all fell on the body of Mu Ling Rui and Mu Ling Xuan, Wu shopkeeper also raised his eyes carefully watched, the two were pushing and shoving, suddenly Mu Ling Rui’s hands a few points of strength, directly Mu Ling Xuan pushed out, followed by the situation at the time of the crime.

“Yes, that’s it.” A few fellows hurriedly responded.

“Since there are guests arguing, why do you guys not dare to come forward,” Mu Zi Yan looked at those fellows and asked in a cold voice,.

“They wouldn’t dare, the Wu family’s son is known to be famous for his poisonous hands, whoever dares to come forward at that time will surely be beaten to death by the Wu family’s son.” One of the people outside raised his voice and said.

“Yes.” Immediately afterward there were many people who agreed.

Mu Zi Yan turned her eyes to look at the shopkeeper, “Shopkeeper Wu, has your son practiced martial arts since he was young”

“Exactly.” With a blush on his face, Boss Wu returned truthfully as well.

“Then, did Shopkeeper Wu see clearly how he pushed Mr. Wu down just now” Mu Zi Yan looked at him and said.

“The straw man saw it.” Counselor Wu answered with downcast eyes.

Mu Zi Yan continued, “Second Duke Mu does not have any martial arts skills, how could that little strength push Duke Wu down”

“This,” Shopkeeper Wu suddenly cried, “but the grasshopper’s son died unjustly.”

Mu Zi Yan said in a low voice, “The real culprit has already escaped, when the time comes, the government will place a bounty on the culprit, and they will catch him.”

“Yes.” Although Counselor Wu was resentful, he also knew that if his son had not bullied people based on his skill, no one would have dared to come forward to help in the nick of time.

Mu Ling Rui looked at Mu Zi Yan, his eyes flickering slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Zhang’s see things finally come to light, since it is the first time to see Mu Zi Yan to solve the case, she will once again sigh up, only to think that Qi’s have such a daughter, it is really a great blessing.

Waiting back to the Beijing Zhaoyin government office, outside also followed many people, since the name of Mu came to see Mu Ziyan.

Zhang Zong sighed helplessly, “See, now you’ve become famous in another battle.”

Mu Zi Yan raised her eyebrows and said blandly, “Since the case is closed, but that person cannot be spared.”

“Smokey, this matter is clearly meant to set up Second Prince Mu.” Zhang Zong said as he looked at her.

“I know.” Mu Zi Yan faintly answered.

“In that case, you do know who the murderer is” Zhang Zong asked with a smile.

“En, but without evidence, you can’t help her.” Mu Zi Yan continued.

“Ai, but looking at the situation today, I’m afraid that things have turned around as well.” Zhang Zong said meaningfully.

Mu Zi Yan laughed lightly, “None of the damned can escape.”

“You girl, how can you have such a heavy killing aura,” Zhang Zong said, but his face was wearing a little bit of a smile.

Mu Zi Yan smiled lightly and said, “I’ll go back first.”

“Good.” Zhang Zong nodded his head in response and rose to his feet, arching his hand and saying, “Greetings, County Lord.”

Mu Zi Yan tilted her head and gave a cold snort, so she went back with Mu Lingxuan.

Tossed a day, did not expect just a trip to the old mansion, the result is also encountered this kind of thing, Mu Zi Yan feel that their future or less go out for good.

Mu Lingxuan, however, found it very enjoyable and turned his eyes to look at Mu Ziyan excitedly and said, “No wonder that girl Rou’er likes to stay in one place with you, so it’s so interesting.”

“Brother, it’s hard to believe that you also find it interesting,” Mu Zi Yan whispered as the corner of her mouth turned away.

“Yes, what should we do about the Golden Qilin” Mu Lingxuan continued.

“Since we have to put it where it is, and send more people to watch over the old mansion, I’m worried that with Zhang Yiqing making such a fuss, I’m afraid that someone is eyeing the old mansion.” Mu Zi Yan said in a cold voice.

“Don’t worry, I’ll make the arrangements myself.” Mu Lingxuan also felt that the old mansion must be watched by someone nowadays, and there was no guarantee that a second Zhang Yiqing would not appear.

When he returned to Marquis Mu’s residence, Mu Qingyuan and Qi were waiting for the two siblings, seeing the two of them back, Mu Qingyuan sighed, “This day has been a big hit.”

“Father, Mother.” Mu Lingxuan and Mu Ziyan respectfully saluted.

“It’s just that the wind is too strong and will cause more trouble in the future.” Mu Qingyuan said worriedly.

“Father don’t worry, my daughter has already been famous, this thing is nothing, if it is too hidden, but people will be suspicious.” Mu Zi Yan smiled back.

“That’s true.” Mu Qingyuan continued, “But you still need to be careful.”

“Yes.” Mu Zi Yan obediently responded.

“Tired for the day, go rest.” Qi said helplessly.

“Daughter excuses herself.” Mu Zi Yan responded with a smile and left the Jiyue Courtyard.

After returning to Smokefall Courtyard, Yunxiang came forward to report, “Eldest Miss, Zhang Yiqing did not return to Yun Ying Temple, but went to the Liang Wang Mansion.”

“She’s smart, though.”

Is smart.” Mu Zi Yan coldly laughed, “Now that she has defected to Princess Qing Li, it is better than returning to Yun Ying Temple to seek death.”

“Eldest Miss, if the Abbot of the Void knew about it, he would definitely call her back.” Yun Xiang felt that Zhang Yiqing would not be able to break away from Void’s control that easily.

Mu Zi Yan smiled lightly and responded, “That’s natural, but Princess Qing Li also has her own schemes, Zhang Yi Qing won’t die for the time being, but it’s just a pawn in someone else’s hands, it’s a pitiful person to say the least.”

“Eldest Miss, why are you pitying her,” Yun Xiang asked in disbelief.

“After being born, she was left without a mother, and she also got night wandering disease, she was sent to Yun Ying Temple without any help, and she was also trained as an assassin, and she could only become a pawn in this life.” Mu Zi Yan suddenly sighed, not everyone is like her, after experiencing trials and tribulations, they are able to start over and control their own destiny.

“Smokey is really kind-hearted.” A snow-white figure fell, and Chu Ye was already standing in front of her.

Mu Zi Yan faintly raised her eyebrows, “Senior Uncle.”

“Good boy.” Chu responded with a smile.

“Senior Uncle this is” Mu Zi Yan saw an extra pot of orchids in his hand, turned around and looked at the orchids placed by the window, then put it aside.

“Lest it be left alone in shape.” Chu smiled and sat down, then said, “Smokey made a big splash again this morning.”

“Already used to it.” Mu Zi Yan, however, was not restrained, but instead sat blandly on the side, and every time Chu Ye appeared, it always made her feel like she was saying goodbye.

The white jade mask on Chu Ye’s face refracted soft light, reflecting on her features as he smiled lightly and said, “Smokey, don’t forget that the competition to leave the division is just around the corner.”

“En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded her head and responded, raising her eyes to look at him and said, “When is it set?”

“Let’s set it for two months from now.” Chu said after a moment of contemplation.

“Two months later,” Mu Zi Yan contemplated for a moment, “just as the period of the Spirit Watcher expires.”

“And I don’t know why you’re holding a wake for him.” Chu said rather disgruntledly.

It was rare for Mu Zi Yan to see him show a different emotion, faintly raising her eyebrows, “I owe him.”

“It turns out that Smokey also has times when she owes favors.” Chu Ye habitually one hand propped up his jaw, revealing half of his arm, wide sleeve robe naturally fall, with the breeze softly floating, like a white lotus quietly swaying with the wind, that lips bloomed shallow smile, as if the dewdrops on the lotus reflected the rouge, this person how to look at it is like a great demon, but on the other hand, it is also let a person feel like a piece of white lotus out of the silt and not stained.

Mu Zi Yan knows that in that world for people with a motherly feeling is called the white lotus flower, that is a kind of hypocrisy, but also a kind of derogatory meaning of human nature, but here, put on Chu Ye’s body, this white lotus is holy and noble, so that people do not dare to touch, and even more so do not dare to look at, for fear that because of their own, and tainted his holiness.

Mu Zi Yan sighed quietly, only feel that this person should not be born in the mortal world, but back to the Divine Healer door, that such a clear mind, as if the fairyland place, then that is provided for how good, why bother to come out to wreak havoc on others?

Chu Ye like to look at her every subtle expression, as if in the appreciation of a beautiful painting in general, only so that he can feel his heart is in the breath with her and beating, beating that unreal, let him suffocate but full of reluctance, at this moment, he really want to embrace her into the embrace, but in the end did not have the courage.

The two people have their own thoughts, so they stared at each other for a long time, before gradually coming back to their senses, Chu Ye slowly got up, raised his hand and gently hooked up the green silk at her temples, and I don’t know when there was an extra hairpin in his hand, so he inserted it into her hair bun, and turned around to leave with a light smile.

Mu Zi Yan froze in place, raised her hand and gently stroked over the hairpin on that hair bun, it was an orchid, and it was personally carved with blue jade, she took down the hairpin from her hair bun, watched it for a long time, and raised her hand to the front of the trousseau, she then put that hairpin into the box, and then closed it.

Only then did Yun Xiang carefully enter, “Eldest Miss, Princess Qing Li has placed a post.”

“She,” Mu Zi Yan’s eyes flashed with a ghostly light, “said when to meet”

“Tomorrow.” Rueyang handed the post up.

“Her birthday gift, since she is going to wish her birthday.” Mu Zi Yan closed the post and hooked her lips in a light smile, “Go prepare a birthday gift.”

“Yes.” Yunxiang hung her head and answered, “Eldest Miss, also invited Eldest Miss Su.”

“Tomorrow I will personally go to pick up Sister Su, you and tell Sister Su that besides me, do not go with anyone else.” Mu Zi Yan said indifferently.

“Yes.” Yun Xiang answered and retreated.

The next day, Mu Zi Yan personally went to Marquis Su’s residence, Su Qin Rou was waiting for her, and when she saw her coming, she joyfully got on the carriage.

“Sister Mu.” Su Qinruo held her hand and said with a smile.

“Follow me later.” Mu Zi Yan whispered.

“Good.” Su Qin Rou happily answered, then excitedly brought up yesterday’s incident, looking at her, “Sister Mu, I really couldn’t help but go out yesterday, but in the end, I still held back.”

“You see Yi Yi sister, she will quietly stay in the house, also do not see you this kind of trouble.” Mu Zi Yan said with a light smile, just after mentioning it, suddenly thought of something, then looked to Su Qin Rou, “These days Yi Yi sister can find you.”

“No.” Su Qinrou then responded, “I haven’t seen it since that day.”

“What about today,” Mu Zi Yan whispered, “Logically, she should have come looking for you.”

“Yeah, I also feel strange.” Su Qinruo was also puzzled this time.

“We’ll know later.” Mu Zi Yan said faintly.

“En.” Su Qin Rou nodded, holding Mu Zi Yan’s hand, inevitably a little worried.

Waiting for the two of them to the cool king’s house, handed the post, then into the house, jun qian luvia far away to see her over, since it is far away, mutual nodding, then each staggered.

Su Qinrou raised her eyes and looked around, then said, “I don’t see her.”

“First cousin.”

First cousin.” Qi Xue’er walked over at this moment and looked at her with a smile.

“Cousin, have you ever seen sister Yi Yi” Mu Zi Yan looked at her and asked.

“No.” Qi Xue’er shook her head, “I haven’t seen her for a long time either.”

“Where is Cousin Zhang?” Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look, and coincidentally saw Zhang Staffer and Qi Xuan sitting in one place.

She then raised her steps and went to the Staffer’s place, and when she reached him, she asked in a low voice, “Cousin Zhang, how has the marriage of the second son of Zhang been going in these few days?”

“Not bad.” The chapter reporter went on to say, “It’s just that Miss Hou is sick, and has not seen anyone in the past few days.”

“Discomfort” Mu Zi Yan’s eyes were slightly raised, “She is in discomfort, how could I not know”

“You don’t know,” the chapter functioner looked at her in surprise, “it is reasonable that Cousin Ziyan should know.”

“I don’t know.” Su Qinruo said with downcast eyes.

“What was that all about,” Staffer asked, looking at her.

“Cousin Zhang knows what strange things happened in the marquis house these days” Mu Zi Yan then asked.

“Second brother has also had a wind chill these past few days.” Staffer went on.

“Obviously the big day is approaching, how come they are sick” Mu Zi Jing was silent for a long time, “but looking for a doctor to see.”

“Looked, said is not serious.” Featured artist went on to say, “By the way, in the daytime he looks fine, but at night he is very weak, and sometimes he will also have cold sweats, which has scared the second aunt.”

“Something happened at Yiyi sister’s place.” Mu Zi Yan pondered for a long time and said in a low voice.

“It’s not me, it’s Yi Yi,” Su Qin Rou heard, and at that moment, she felt a blackness in her eyes.

“This matter is too strange.” Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes and looked around, then asked, “Didn’t the Hou family come with anyone?”

“No.” The chapter shook his head.

“Cousin, why don’t you go take a look,” Qi Xuan spoke in a warm voice.

Mu Zi Yan shook her head, “Since she’s here, wanting to go out is not possible since, and she can only wait for the birthday banquet to end.”

“It seems that it has to be so.” Chapter Staffer listened to Mu Zi Yan’s words and felt that there seemed to be something wrong with things.

Mu Zi Yan turned her eyes to look at Su Qin Rou and continued, “Sister Su, you must stay by my side all the time and never leave.”

“I know.” Su Qinrou nodded, her heart still hung up on Hou Yi Yi, secretly blaming herself, she was so focused on her own big wedding that she neglected Hou Yi Yi.

Mu Ziyan was also a bit busy these days, and had always felt that the people behind the scenes would be counting on Su Qinruo, but she hadn’t expected that they would also be counting on Hou Yi Yi.

She turned her eyes to Rueka and spoke with her ear, and Rueka turned to leave.

And so after a while, will see Princess Qing Li out, this day dressed very grand and luxurious, but also radiant, the people will also send a birthday gift, said some birthday words, the banquet will begin.

Yunxiang walked over at this moment, respectfully standing behind her, “Eldest Miss, Miss Hou is bedridden, I heard that it is infected with wind-cold, the slave girl has already let Hidden One go to go to Dr. Jin.”

“Good.” Mu Zi Yan faintly answered, picked up the wine glass in her hand, was about to take a sip, then she felt that something was wrong, turned her eyes and saw that Su Qin Rou had already taken a sip, she didn’t move and replaced Su Qin Rou’s wine glass, carefully sniffed it gently, and the corners of her mouth hooked up with a cold smile.

After a while, they saw someone come forward to call Mu Zi Yan, “County princess, the princess is invited.”

“Good.” Mu Zi Yan nodded her head and answered, so she held Su Qin Rou’s hand to go.

“The princess has invited only the county princess.” The palace maid whispered.

“Sister Su, wait for me here.” Mu Zi Yan looked at her and said.

“Good.” Su Qinrou responded with a smile and resumed her seat.

After Mu Zi Yan left for a while, she saw another palace maid come and went up and said, “Miss Su, the county princess mentioned you to the princess, the princess said she wanted to see you, please Miss Su come with the slave girl.”

Su Qinrou looked at her doubtfully, “Is it a princess or a county princess”

“The county princess is in a place with the princess, so please ask Miss Su to go ahead.” The courtesan said nonchalantly, not looking alarmed in any way.

Su Qinrou was silent for a moment and nodded her head in response, “Good.”

She slowly got up, so she left the banquet with the courtesan.

Mu Lingxuan, who was not far away, happened to see it, so he quietly left the table and followed.
