Chapter 23

Mu Shuilan actually dislikes her this pair of flattering and obedient appearance, she is really despised by herself. However, who called her a legitimate daughter of Hou's house, she had to be flattered and behave like a virtuous and noble sister. If according to her temperament, muyueli such a flatterer is the most despised by her, but also enjoy her such ah Yi flattery, it is because she is so careful in front of her that she shows her status and dignity.

Then light said: "six younger sister pour is serious say, I am a little tired, really can't move this brain."

Mu Yueli looked at her disdainful look, and thought that she had to suffer from anger both inside and outside, she could not help but feel the fire in her heart. However, she had to suppress herself in front of Mu Shuilan, because she knew that she and her biological mother could only live a better life in this Marquis than other concubines and their children if they depended on her mother and daughter.

"I don't know if the five elder sisters know that before the death of the third elder sister and cousin song, they heard that mu Yingxue went to the plum garden in the later mountain."

Mu Shuilan smell speech pick eyebrow, in the heart then had a care, but did not reply to turn a way: "what's wrong with your face?"

Mu Yueli's face was hot. If he hadn't been in a hurry to tell mu Shuilan this important news, he would never run around with such an ugly face. I really wish I could tear mu Yingxue.

"It's mu Yingxue, that bitch who has done a good job. I'll settle accounts with her one day." However, he did not talk about this process after he slapped himself more than 100 times.

"Oh, how are you going to settle with her?" Unexpectedly this time, mu Shuilan followed her words.

Mu Yueli some accident, more is excited, busy way: "five elder sister, you this is willing to help me teach this bitch?"

In fact, Mu Yueli and mu Shuilan have been close to each other for a long time. She knows that mu Shuilan is not totally indifferent to Mu Yingxue's mother, just because she never sees her hand.

Mu Shuilan said: "where is the sixth sister? Why should I help you teach the fourth sister? The six sisters are not as good at their own skills, and who can blame? "

Mu Yueli listened to the blue and white face again, but he did not give up: "yes, my sister, I'm not as good as a human being. I only blame mu Yingxue, that bitch, who is so capable of making mischief. I don't know whether she pretended to be crazy and innocent before, and actually cheated everyone. I think the three sisters and cousin song must have something to do with her. Otherwise, why didn't the governor tell her that she had been to Houshan before, but asked the maid to report to the Yamen secretly? "

Mu Shuilan's mouth slightly passed a trace of inexplicable smile, and said: "six sisters are reasonable, dare not open up to speak, there must be a secret."

As soon as Mu Yueli heard this, her eyes brightened, and her face was flushed with a strange color. She said, "it must be. I dare not say that she went out after the mountain. Maybe it's because the murderer was not someone else, but mu Yingxue himself!"

Mu Shuilan smiles but doesn't speak. She reaches for the tea cup to drink tea. She is waiting for mu Yueli to pave the way for herself.

"Five elder sister, since we have found out the truth of the matter, how can we let everyone know that mu Yingxue is the real murderer?" Sure enough, Mu Yueli can't wait to see mu Yingxue die.

Mu Shuilan sipped the fragrance of tea and said with a smile: "the sixth sister has made a mistake again. Where is the truth we have found out? It is clear that the younger sister is so clever that you have cracked all the clues that Luo Wu did not expect. I am still confused. However, if you really want to understand this matter, it is also easy. In a few days, my father will come back from the border, and then the emperor should set up a royal banquet for his father, and reward the three armies at the same time. "

After a few words, she stopped and stopped going down. She believed that no matter how stupid Mu Yueli was, she would understand her meaning. That is, she should testify mu Yingxue as a murderer in public at the royal banquet while all the royal members were present.

Sure enough, Mu Yueli was so excited that he could hardly sit still. He wished that Mu Yunxiao would return to the capital and the banquet would begin immediately.

"My sister is thoughtful." Mu Yueli mouth hook up a smug smile, this time she must mu Yingxue fall into disrepute, never turn over!

On the sixth day, Mu Yunxiao led his trusted troops back to the capital. The Emperor gave a banquet and led the queen, the prince and his concubines to attend the banquet.

When the royal family got together and the whole family of Mu family went to the banquet, it was unnecessary to say that the ladies were dressed in full dress. Because they were going into the palace, Mu Yunxiao was also an important figure in the banquet. In order to avoid being said that the mistress mistreated the common people, even mu Yingxue and Ouyang Ruo also got the clothing system and even issued a complete set of jewelry according to the law.

Ouyang Ruo looked at his daughter's gorgeous dress, like a lotus flower in the water, as beautiful and refined as a white lotus. He couldn't help but sigh that his daughter was big. For a moment, he was moved to the corner of his eyes and saw mu Yingxue turn to look at her, and he was busy wiping tears with his sleeves.

Xu Min didn't want to see this scene, but she didn't have a good face.

Mu Shuilan saw this, but he looked at mu Yingxue and said, "mother, don't be angry. Don't be wise with others."

Xu Min took a look at her daughter, who was worthy of her official daughter.

Mu Yueli heard the conversation between them, but he took a step forward and spat politely: "the fox flatterer is so pretentious that it makes people sick." I don't know if it's mu Yingxue or Ouyang Ruo.Xu Min listened to Jieqi, but did not like her vulgar speech, especially in such an occasion, on the spot on the other party's face, said: "aunt Fang, in the future, it's better to let Miss six listen to people's chatter."

Fang's aunt agreed. Mu Yueli only felt a slap on the horse's leg, which was startled and painful, so she didn't dare to make any more noise.

"The emperor is here!"

As soon as the voice of the internal affairs supervisor fell, he saw a man with bright yellow embroidered dragon patterns and a multicolored morning sun crown on his head.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live my emperor!"

All the people were crawling on the ground and shouting long live for three times. The voice rang through the sky.

Xuanyuan strong looking at the people crawling below, squint and feel some satisfaction: "flat body."

When they all got up and returned to their places, xuanyuanlie picked up a full cup of wine bottle on the case, and said in a loud voice: "Xuanyuan Dynasty, for thousands of generations!"

"Thousands of generations!"

People raised their glasses to celebrate, a glass of wine, some words seem to be easy to speak some.

For example, Mu Yunxiao took the lead in holding up the wine cup and said to the upper table: "minister, I wish the prosperity of Xuanyuan Dynasty will last forever, and the king's hegemony will last forever." Then he lifted his head and drank the wine.

Xuanyuanlie nodded his head and said in a slightly solemn manner: "Ai Qing, it's really hard for you to guard the border. It's very important to help me stabilize the country. I'll respect and love you." He raised his glass and took a sip.

At this time, the virtuous imperial concubine, sitting on the left side of the emperor, said with a sigh: "the Marquis has worked hard and made great achievements in guarding the frontier. It is a good thing to go home this time. It's a pity that the weather is unpredictable and people are in trouble. I hope that the Marquis and his wife will be able to make changes." Finish saying, already face have sad Yan.

All the people present said that the reason why Mu Yunxiao and his wife changed during the festival was that the third young lady of the Marquis house and her cousin died unexpectedly in the mountain behind the Marquis house. Because of the strange cause of death, this matter has caused a sensation in the capital.

Mu Yunxiao's early return to Beijing this time has something to do with this incident. The death of a daughter makes him feel uncomfortable. However, as the cause of Mu Xiangqin's death is not glorious, he is very reluctant to mention it in public. He only hopes that the capital will forget about it earlier.

However, the virtuous imperial concubine mentioned it at this time, which made him feel sad and embarrassed. She had to raise her glass and say, "thank you for your concern. The ministers and daughters are not good, and the family is unfortunate. I'm so ashamed."

Seeing that he looked a little embarrassed, xuanyuanlie gently gave his imperial concubine a look. It seemed that she should not have done it at this time. However, he thought that this was the best occasion to show a king's kindness. He said, "love Qing, don't be too sad. Although I haven't seen the third lady, I've heard from the virtuous princess that she always talks about it. I think she should be a kind and virtuous person."

"Thank you very much."

Mu Yunxiao listened to these words, how much feel saved some face, facial expression is not so stiff some.

Xuanyuanlie is satisfied with this.

"The emperor is holy and wise. My son has died unjustly. I hope the emperor will uphold justice for the minister."

Unexpectedly, a man came out of the opposite table, but he was the family member of another party. Song Zhong, the Minister of the Ministry of war.

Xuanyuanlie frowned a little, but he didn't know that there were many things about the banquet. It was clearly a celebration of the return of Frontier officers and soldiers to Beijing. It was made like a funeral. His two officials were in mourning and looked like dead sons. However, after thinking about it, he slowed down and asked, "Song Aiqing, the governor of the capital city has decided the case. What kind of Duke do you want me to preside over Tao? "

Song Zhongchao bent down on the ground and kowtowed: "the minister thinks that the case is not so simple, the minister's son can not be killed by fighting with others."

Xuanyuan lie asked, "Oh, can Ai Qing think that the son of song was murdered and killed?"

Song Zhong silently bow to the ground, but no answer is tantamount to acquiescence in the emperor's words.

Xuanyuan lie pondered: "Song Aiqing, I know the pain of your son's death, but everything needs evidence. Guessing from nowhere will only hurt innocent people. If this case is really as you said, there are still deficiencies, I will let Luo Wu do it again."

"Go back to your seat." Xuanyuanlie waved his hand, which seemed a little unhappy.

Song Zhong had no choice but to return to his position.

Xuanji just wanted to be active, but she didn't want to go out again.

Mu Yingxue looks at Mu Yueli and walks out with a red and swollen face. She doesn't feel very good in her heart. She always thinks that there is a bit of conspiracy in the banquet today. She starts with the death of Mu Xiangqin and song Qingyun. It's just, what is it for?
