Chapter 50: bright side

The next day, Mu Qingchen and Jiang Hui welcomed them into Mo's house. Seeing that the servants were accompanied by three or five people with fearful faces, they pulled one of them to ask.

The man said, "The city gate is dead again! Butler Mo was cut off to death at the corner of the city wall!"

"Why? I heard that the housekeeper was devastated and took a walk at night to express his depression, but he was caught in the same position as the dead man the day before yesterday! Everyone was panicking, it was rumored that the killer would come to Mo's house today!"

Back in the compound, Mu Qingchen closed the wooden door and listened to Jiang Hui. Ying said: "The housekeeper was not killed by someone from the palace"

"?"

"The killer rushed to Rong Yue with a very clear goal. Unless he was caught, he would not attack others."

It is certain that the housekeeper was killed by the Mo family. Deliberately put the blame on the killer.

Mu Qingchen summoned Shuangyuan and asked who spread the news of their troubles, and Shuangyuan said Mrs.

She repeated Shuangyuan's words to Jiang Huiying: "In the morning, the eldest lady hurriedly ran to the main courtyard with a sad face, and told the master that the only relative who served her for many years died at the city gate, the same way as the guards and beaters that night. Is it because those people failed to attack the Rong family and targeted the Mo family? They also asked Mr. Mo to decide the housekeeper!"

She continued, "There are two more things. Yesterday, when Mrs. Jiu was summoned, the first lady quietly sent someone to sneak into Jiu. After the housekeeper was dismissed by Mr. Mo, she sent the maids out of the house to give money to strangers.”

This is 100% the work of the eldest lady, and it’s a shame that even the relatives are killed, I am afraid that the housekeeper Mo Knowing her many secrets happens to be a rare opportunity recently.

Mu Qingchen wondered: "Isn't she afraid of revenge by framing the people in the palace?"

Jiang Huiying: "Those people can't find her, and even if they do, there are many ways to excuse them, and they will definitely not want to assassinate Rong Yue. There are many troubles."

"I don't know why those people killed Rong Yue. As far as I know, Rong Yue grew up here, how could he offend the people in the palace?"

Broken jade broke into his mind, and there seemed to be an answer ready to come out.

In the afternoon, Mu Qingchen finished painting and handed Jiang Hui the deep and mysterious beauty of the deep sea, which was only half a meter long. He smiled and invited him to praise: "How is it, does it look good?"

"It looks good, but what's the use of it?"

Mu Qingchen Laughing but not answering, I just said that I will show you the effect in a few days and nights.

After finishing the picture scroll, put the purchased bronze mirror in the sunlight, the bronze mirror reflects several times the light, she said to herself: "I don't know how strong the light can be reflected at night, it's better to make it stronger, and make it like this The special effects are more realistic!" The

two of them worked together to draw a regular curve in the corridor of the compound with a string.

"The night before the full moon feast, let the flower seeds grow along the arc, and then graft a blooming peony flower at the junction of the arc, and some leaf spikes hang down from the bottom."

"Tonight we live in Mo's house, and I will go and talk to the eldest lady. Said that no one else is allowed to be near here at night.” The

overnight stay was quickly replied, and the eldest lady personally invited people to have dinner together, and said that they should stay in the most distinguished guest room.

Naturally, Mu Qingchen would not live under surveillance, saying that there is a guest room here, but he doesn't need it.

The eldest lady worried: "The person just died today, this place is really unknown."

"I never believe in that one," Mu Qingchen said, rejecting good intentions and seeing off guests politely.

The courtyard door was gently closed, and Mu Qingchen and Jiang Huiying climbed over the wall to keep up with the eldest lady.

The eldest lady in the dark said coldly to the empty air: "Take care of them!"

She didn't stop, and her tone suddenly became cold: "Little bastard, yesterday sent Chunlan to report a letter, and today you dare to personally... No matter what their identities are, it's a hindrance. My way, I must die!"

Jiang Huiying led people back to the hospital quietly, the two of them ate and washed, and then went back to their rooms.

After a while, Mu Qingchen's window was pushed open from the outside, Jiang Huiying jumped in, closed the window gently, and the room was dark.

Mu Qingchen could hear each other's breathing and footsteps outside.

"Come in." Mu Qingchen patted the bed, sat at the end of the bed, stared at the extremely pale people outside the door, and said softly to Jiang Huiying, "Don't let him find anything unusual, put down the gauze."

Jiang Huiying: "..."

Mu Qingchen: "? He's poking at the window paper!"

The gauze on the bed was put down, and the two kept a safe distance. When the line of sight disappeared, Mu Qingchen breathed a sigh of relief and said in a low voice, "Tonight you have to contact Mrs. Ninth. Let her come over tomorrow."

Jiang Huiying: "..."

"Why don't you talk?"

The shadow who was a few steps away from the window suddenly approached, Mu Qingchen immediately shut up, breathing in the narrow space, waiting for the person to recover his suspicions, Jiang Hui greeted him, "I'll kill him!"

"You can't scare the snake, you have to let the eldest lady suffer the consequences! She wants to use us to kill the ninth lady and the child, and she must work hard at the full moon banquet. Excuse me! I'll give her this chance!"

"Let the snake out of the hole?" Jiang Huiying's voice was duller than usual. Mu Qingchen

was puzzled and nodded. After a while, he asked in a low voice, "Is that person still outside?

"

Loyal staff is really rare!

She endured the drowsiness, stared at Jiang Huiying sideways, and finally felt that it was a very incorrect decision to invite people into the bed, thinking about how to let people get out of bed in a tactful and not embarrassing way, Jiang Huiying suddenly moved.

"He's relaxed his vigilance, I'm going to the Ninth Courtyard."

Mu Qingchen couldn't ask for it: "Yeah!" In the

courtyard, the guard in charge of monitoring leaned against the wall. Suddenly, he opened his sleepy eyes and stared at a few leaves that fell from the sky. , yawned a lot, and went back to sleep.

In the ninth courtyard, Mrs. Ninth woke up from her sleep with the baby in her arms. After looking around, all the grass and trees lay down again. Suddenly, her eyes stopped, and a shadow stood outside the door.

someone!

She gritted her teeth and hid the child at the bottom of the wardrobe, holding the kitchen knife she had prepared with her.

One person and one shadow faced each other across the door, and the door bolt moved slowly.

┅┅┅ Mu

Qingchen felt a warm gaze, turned his body unsteadily, the past life gradually blurred in the dream, and this life is gentle and beautiful with his family.

When the painting style changed, everyone in the dream pointed at her with a stern face: "You are not Mu Qingchen!"

"Ah!" Mu Qingchen woke up in a cold sweat, his body was heavy, and he was pressed under the quilt. Covering her mouth, she whispered in her ear: "Don't make a sound"

for a long time. The guards who were investigating outside walked away, and Mu Qingchen turned his head in the dark: "Can you get up?"

This posture was too awkward, and both parties coughed dryly . , Jiang Huiying sat next to him, and palely changed the subject: "I'll tell you about Mrs. Jiu, you fell asleep."

Mu Qingchen bowed his head: "Actually, you don't need to tell tonight, fortunately I woke up from a dream, otherwise I'd run for nothing. Jiang Huiying couldn't see the

expression on his face in the dark, and the tip of his ears could be faintly reddened by the moonlight, but the two of them sat upright and looked at each other without looking at each other, neither of them observed each other.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Huiying said that she had told Mrs. Jiu to bring the child to the compound tomorrow, and then left along the window.

The next morning, Mu Qingchen had just woken up to take a shower and hadn't had breakfast yet. Mrs. Jiu trotted over with a childish look, followed by two little maids.

When I came in, the maid was not allowed to follow me, and said to Mu Qingchen, who was about to eat, "Last night, Boss Jiang told me to find you."

She nervously looked away at the maid who was secretly paying attention to this side, and pursed her lips: "But what are your orders?"

Mu Qingchen closed the courtyard. door, separated the maid's sight, and said to her, "Sit down and eat together"

"No, no need."

"Eat, now we are grasshoppers on a boat. She wants to get rid of us together. Waiting for someone to take action is not the way, so I want to come and talk with you."

Mrs. Jiu bowed her head: "Boss Mu ordered, I obey all arrangements."

Mu Qingchen said, "The madam is in the dark, we are in the light, and it is not good for us. It is better to break the kettle and sink the boat to lure snakes out of the hole. From now on, you will live here, and don't go anywhere except the courtyard." The

ninth lady nodded, doing business. The efficiency is very fast, and after a while, the maid and the maid move into the guest room with some supplies.

Mu Qingchen and Jiang Huiying were setting the stage and called a white kite to play with the baby.

At first, Madam Ninth was a little scared. She found that the bird did not hurt anyone, so she let it do various graceful poses in front of her son, and then she secretly looked at the busy people, thinking about what kind of strange person could tame the fairy bird in the sky?

When Mu Qingchen met his gaze, he reminded him, "Deliberately stay away from your maid during this time."

Madam Jiu was startled, nodded, and said softly, "Boss Mu wants to give the eldest lady the illusion that we have formed an alliance?"

"Well, we have no evidence to prove it. She hurts people, and she only dares to be fearless. We are together, and everyone who cares will understand what is going on. She must be afraid that things will change, so she will speed up to achieve her goal, and maybe she will not wait for the full moon banquet."

"What are you going to do?"

"I don't want her to get what she wants, so I'll wait until the full moon banquet, and give her the opportunity to do it when there are the most people. Recently, the eldest lady may come over frequently. You have to be uncharacteristically flattering to her and deepen your doubts

.

" The two little girls outside stomped their feet anxiously.

"Can't hear! It's too far! Can't hear them talking!"

"Mrs. Jiu and Boss Mu are together, there must be something wrong, you guard, I'll report to the eldest madam!"

The maid hurriedly bumped into several people, and the servants watched her running away in confusion, thinking that this is not the new maid assigned by the eldest lady to the ninth lady?

"Crack!" Xia Zhu backed open the door, panting, "Madam! Madam!"

"Quiet! How rude to shout!" The people in the room frowned.

The maid closed her mouth in horror, and saw that the madam's personal maid was carrying a bundle, and a little blood was seeping out, dyeing a small piece of fabric red.

The mediocre-looking maid said fiercely: "What are you looking at?" She respectfully said goodbye to the eldest lady, and left with her baggage.

Xia Zhu's eyes stared at the dark red, and the eldest lady's voice suddenly sounded in her ears: "What did you see?"

She was startled, and held back her voice: "I didn't see anything! The slave did not see anything!" The

eldest lady The curvature of her slightly curved lips was slowly drawn into a straight line, she took a few steps back and turned her back: "Tell me, why are you so panicked?"

Xia Zhu: "Mrs. Jiu took the child to the compound! They took me and Qiu together. Chrysanthemum is separated from the outside, what are you discussing!" The

eldest lady turned around suddenly, and said aggressively: "What did you say?"

"The slave said that the ninth lady and Boss Mu are together! They also have children!"

"Crack!" Xia Zhu said heavily He was slapped, fell to the ground covering the corner of his bleeding mouth, and looked at the eldest lady who calmly closed her hands in horror.

"Clean up, I have to think about what the wound on your face has to do with me, go back and continue to guard."

"Yes"

in a sparsely populated first hospital, the eldest lady clenched her fists: "Partnership against me? Not bad courage!"
