Chapter 408

Seeing her upright and unharmed appearance, Mu Shuyuan was silenced, feeling aggrieved and annoyed.

She spent a lot of gold coins to buy Mu Yaqing's life, but in the end, she wasted nothing in fetching water from the bamboo basket, it was really hateful.

It's just that her father and several wives were present, so she couldn't get angry casually, so she could only endure her anger and try her best to maintain the image of a dignified and decent young lady.

Su Moliang received Mu Shuyuan's sharp gaze, but it was as if nothing had happened, she was calm and calm, and could smile back from time to time, making Mu Shuyuan's teeth itch with hatred.

Although the other two ladies pretended to be very happy, the anger in their eyes could not fool Su Moliang.

There was only one lady, who touched the tears at the corners of her eyes sincerely and nodded her head vigorously: "It's good to be back, it's good to be back."

Su Moliang couldn't help but glanced at her, and found that this person was about [-]% similar to Mu Yaqing in appearance, presumably she was her biological mother.

It's just that this third lady is the concubine of the head of the Mu family, and her mother's family has no background, so she is also the target of being bullied in the Mu family. Even when her daughter comes back safely, she dare not be too rude, for fear of angering other people. Two ladies.

When Mu Rong heard this, he frowned, and yelled at the servant girl who was kneeling on the ground: "Chunyan, you are so brave, you dare to make a rumor about Miss, if it spreads, it will destroy Miss." You are innocent, can you bear the consequences!"

This maid who was kneeling on the ground and tremblingly yelled at by Patriarch Mu is Mu Yaqing's personal maid, Chunyan. Although she is serving by Mu Yaqing's side, she is Mu Shuyuan's person in private, and she accompanied Mu Yaqing this morning. Going out for shopping, he deliberately took her to a remote alley, so that the gangsters could take advantage of her.

And she herself pretended to be panicked and ran back to the Mu Mansion to report.

Speaking of which, she did see Mu Yaqing being taken away with her own eyes, and she really couldn't figure out how she could come back safe and sound, and what she said about going to the prince's mansion was simply nonsense.

Now that she was reprimanded and accused of spreading rumors, Chunyan was so frightened that she immediately kowtowed and cried, "Master, please forgive me, this servant is wronged, this servant really saw that the third lady was taken away by the gangsters, if it wasn't for her own eyes As you can see, even if you give this servant a hundred courage, he wouldn’t dare to make up random things, this servant is really wronged!”

Seeing Chunyan kowtow heavily, with blood oozing from her forehead, her honest and honest appearance made everyone present a little shaken, and they all looked at Mu Yaqing suspiciously.

Su Moliang received everyone's questioning eyes, and pretended to be extremely innocent, and yelled at Chunyan: "Chunyan, why did you frame me? It was obviously because you were playful and lingered on the street goods this morning that you were with me. I got separated, and now you are actually making up the news that I was kidnapped in order to shirk your fault of not serving well, you are really too vicious."

When everyone heard this, they all looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing who was real and who was fake.

Because Mu Yaqing's words also make sense.

Because Chunyan lost her master and was afraid of being punished by the master, she made up the story of the robbers in a moment of desperation, but thought of the consequences of being exposed, which is also understandable.

When Chunyan heard the words, she didn't expect that stealing chickens would not result in a loss of rice, but now she was beaten up by Mu Yaqing, and became a sinner who intentionally spread rumors in order to shirk responsibility.

"Miss, why do you want to frame this servant? The servant definitely did not spread rumors indiscriminately, let alone framed the lady. The servant saw you being taken away by the robbers with his own eyes. If there is a half-truth, the servant is willing to be struck by lightning and die." Chunyan is also very clever, crying and swearing, that appearance is really serious.

At this time, Mu Shuyuan's biological mother, Lou Biqi, the eldest wife of the Mu family, suddenly said: "My lord, this matter is a bit strange. I'm watching, and this girl doesn't dare to lie. I'm afraid that someone is playing tricks behind her back." , deliberately framed our Mu family, so the master should investigate clearly."

When Mu Rong heard this, he nodded his head, frowned, and told Steward Sun who was standing aside: "Butler Sun, take the gift and go to the Prince's Mansion to investigate and see if there is such a thing."

Butler Sun nodded when he heard the words, turned around and left the hall.

But Su Moliang felt sad for Mu Yaqing after hearing this.

It stands to reason that Mu Yaqing is also his biological daughter. Instead of being happy when her daughter came back safely, he was suspicious. It seemed that he was worried that Mu Yaqing would be caught by the gangsters, lose her innocence, and bring shame to the Mu family.

Such a father is really chilling.

At this time, the palace was quiet, and the knock on the door outside Bei Hanyu's room was particularly loud and sudden.

Bei Hanyu slept for a few hours, and almost woke up from the wine. Hearing a voice, he woke up in a daze, and opened his mouth hoarsely after a hangover: "Come in."

At this time, Steward Chen of the Wangfu quickly opened the door and entered, carefully observed the prince's expression, and said in a low voice: "My lord, the housekeeper Sun from the Mu family has come, and said that he has something to ask to see the prince."

Bei Hanyu frowned, with some doubts on his face, why did the butler of the Mu family come to him?

It's just that his brain hurts so much that he has no energy to think, so he can only wave his hands: "Let him in."

After saying that, Bei Hanyu got up from the bed, but who knew that as soon as his right foot landed, he suddenly felt a sharp pain.

He was startled, and immediately opened his trouser legs, and suddenly found a bruise on the knee of his right leg, which looked like someone had injured him with a hidden weapon.

He drank well during the day, why did he suddenly have an extra scar?

Just when Bei Hanyu was shocked, Steward Chen brought Steward Sun in.

Seeing that the lord had rested so early, Steward Sun was terrified, and hurriedly saluted: "Damn you, you interrupted the lord to rest."

Bei Hanyu was not feeling well, and his mood was even more irritable. He frowned impatiently: "Tell me what's going on."

Seeing that he was angry, Steward Sun asked with a trembling voice: "My lord, I wonder if you have seen my third lady, Mu Yaqing today."

Bei Hanyu frowned deeper, as if trying to remember something, after being silent for a long time, he finally had some impression.

"Well, I saw it in the garden. The Mu family suddenly came to the door and asked, what do you mean?" Bei Hanyu was confused by Butler Sun.

When Butler Sun heard the words, he immediately waved his hands with a smirk: "It doesn't mean anything else. I just heard that the lady came to the palace today. I was afraid that the lady would be rude, so the owner sent a servant to apologize."

With that said, Patriarch Sun handed the gift that had been prepared to Butler Chen.

There are many people who don't blame Li, and Bei Hanyu doesn't want to embarrass him, so he just nodded half-believingly: "Patriarch Mu is polite."

"Since the lord wants to rest, the slave will stop bothering and leave first." Butler Sun asked Steward Chen just now, and now he has heard the lord admit it, so there is no falsehood.

Looking at the back of Butler Sun leaving, Bei Hanyu seemed to think of something, and suddenly looked down at the bruise on his knee.

He vaguely remembered that when he saw Mu Yaqing, he said a few words, but for some reason, there was a burst of pain after that, and then he fell down.

Seeing the bruise now, Bei Hanyu's tangled face suddenly unfolded, and his pupils jumped up in shock.
