The eldest daughter, she is proud and sassy

Chapter 78 The Scholar
Cui Hengyue was furious when she heard it, and she couldn't help but growl: "I told you, I went to find Lin Jiang.

"Zhen Jiu lives on the south side, and Lin Jiang lives on the north side. It takes a quarter of an hour to go from Lin Jiang's room to Zhen Jiu's courtyard, not to mention that I need to avoid the guards, which takes even longer.

"In this case, how can I have the time to kill people?"

Mu Yun said lightly: "Lin Jiang said, you and Qionghua didn't look for him."

Cui Hengyue: "."

After all, the problem still lies with Lin Jiang.

At this moment, Cui Hengyue really didn't know whether she should be happy for Lin Jiang's loyalty
"So, you still don't believe me?" Cui Hengyue looked directly at Mu Yun suspiciously.

Mu Yun still said: "I only believe in evidence."

"Okay, then I'll tell King Chu."

Cui Hengyue sat down on the chair to the right of Mu Yun, with a straight posture and a majestic expression: "Please give me a word to the king of Chu, just say that I want to talk to him about the grievances between him and my aunt, let him now Come see me."

Mu Yun: "."

This stinky girl, treat her a little politely, she really thinks of herself as someone else, how dare she order him around, and let her master come to see her?

Mu Yun was speechless, too lazy to talk to Cui Hengyue, got up and left.

Once outside the hall, Mu Yun told Chi Ye: "Let her go in to accompany Cui Hengyue, you stay here, don't let them leave the hall."

"Yes."

Akano then put Qionghua in.

"Yue Yue--"

Qionghua rushed to Cui Hengyue's side, looked up and down, and checked whether Cui Hengyue was injured: "Are you okay?"

"I am fine."

Cui Hengyue broke away from Qionghua's hand and pushed her on the chair next to her.

Qionghua couldn't resist Cui Hengyue, so she asked, "What did you tell General Mu just now? Why did you mention King Chu and Yuanniang? What happened to them?"

These questions have been lingering in her mind ever since she was kicked out just now.

It seemed that there was something she didn't know.

"Oh, I just told Mu Yun that King Chu has an affair with my aunt."

Cui Hengyue answered calmly, but Qionghua was startled: "How could it be? Impossible..."

Qionghua suddenly let out a low voice: "Could it be that the king of Chu is the scholar Yuanniang is talking about?"

Scholar?

"What's going on?" Cui Hengyue looked at Qionghua.

In the memory of the little lunatic, he has never seen or heard of any scholar, who is this scholar?

Qionghua explained: "Yuanniang once told the lady that she came to Yunxuan Temple with her wife to offer incense and met a scholar.

"That scholar doesn't like to laugh, he keeps a straight face all day long, but he likes to help the monks in the temple with their work. Yuan Niang thinks he's funny, and even fought him several times.
"I don't know much, because the lady didn't follow that time, she."

The sound stopped abruptly.

Cui Hengyue: "Is it because of Cui Sanlang that my mother didn't go?"

Qionghua felt ashamed for Mrs. Wang and nodded slightly.

"What else do you know about this scholar?" Cui Hengyue asked.

"That's all I know."

Hearing this, Cui Hengyue felt very strange, "Why did my mother never tell me about this scholar?"

Qionghua lowered her head and said weakly: "Because during that time, Yuan Niang disapproved of my wife's association with the Cui family, and she quarreled with my wife several times.

"Because of this matter, the lady doesn't like to see Yuan Niang very much, and she doesn't talk to Yuan Niang about many things.

"Gradually, Yuanniang stopped talking to her when she had something to do."

Cui Hengyue fell into deep thought. If this is the case, then it makes sense that Qionghua didn't know that Wang Yuanniang had contacts with the King of Chu.

As the sky became brighter, the bells rang in the monastery. The monks began their morning classes, and the people in the South Temple began their morning meal.

"Cuckoo-"

Cui Hengyue looked down at her stomach, feeling uncomfortably hungry.

Qionghua covered her stomach, desperately trying to control her stomach so that it would not make a sound, but it was in vain.

"Yueyue, are you hungry?"

"It's okay." Cui Hengyue's face was a little ugly, and she felt a burst of cramps in her abdomen, which was extremely uncomfortable.

As soon as Qionghua heard it, she knew that Cui Hengyue was very hungry, so she stood up and began to look for food in the hall.

After searching around, I couldn't find anything, not even a glass of water, Qionghua was in trouble, Yueyue was still growing, how could she be hungry?
At this moment, Akano came in with a tray, on which was a bowl of porridge.

Seeing the bowl of porridge as light as water, Cui Hengyue and Qionghua's eyes lit up, salivating.

"This is for you, eat it." Chi Ye stuffed the tray directly to Qionghua, and then said to Cui Hengyue: "Come with me, the King of Chu wants to see you."

Cui Hengyue wanted to share a bowl of porridge with Qionghua, but when she heard this, she turned around and immediately walked towards the door.

After leaving the side hall, Chi Ye ordered the guards to keep an eye on the people in the side hall, and took Cui Hengyue to the veranda, heading north.

When he was about to reach the plank road, Cui Hengyue saw Mu Yun waiting there, so he took the initiative to walk over.

Mu Yun turned his head and glanced at her: "Come with me, be honest, don't play tricks, falling is not a joke."

Cui Hengyue immediately followed and set foot on the plank road leading to the North Hall.

The plank road is outside, suspended in the air, and can only accommodate two people walking side by side. If they accidentally fall down, they will be swallowed by the river hundreds of feet down.

Cui Hengyue looked out, feeling dizzy and her legs were weak. She quickly retracted her head and grabbed Mu Yun's sleeve.

Seeing Mu Yun looking over, Cui Hengyue said confidently: "I didn't eat in the morning, and I don't have the energy to walk."

It is clearly fear.

Mu Yun did not expose Cui Hengyue, but slowed down a little.

Through the plank road, via the Bodhi Pavilion to the Shenyin Palace, I saw Mu Shui and Mu Feng waiting outside the door.

"I'll leave her to you." After Mu Yun finished speaking, he turned and left.

Mu Shui stepped forward and said politely, "Miss Cui, please follow me."

Cui Hengyue didn't speak, and walked in with Mu Shui, looking at Shenyin Palace calmly, and glanced at Mu Feng who was following behind from time to time.

"Are you Mrs. Mu Shui?" Cui Hengyue suddenly said.

Mu Shui froze for a moment, then replied: "Yes."

"I heard that the King of Chu has four Mus, Mu Feng, Mu Yun, Mu Shui, and what else is Mu?" Cui Hengyue asked again.

Mu Shui hesitated, should she say it?
Just when Mu Shui was hesitating, Mu Feng who was walking behind said, "Mu Huo."

Mu Huo?

It turned out that there was such a character, but unfortunately, she hadn't seen it yet.

"Miss Cui, we're here."

Mu Shui stopped at the door and didn't go any further.

When Cui Hengyue was hesitating whether to go in alone, Mu Feng went around in front of her and stepped over the threshold: "Come in with me."

So, Cui Hengyue followed Mu Feng into the main hall, and she looked at the furnishings in the hall calmly, keeping vigilance in her heart all the time.

When he reached the curtain where the inner room was connected to the outer room, Mu Feng stopped and said to Cui Hengyue expressionlessly: "Go in."

Cui Hengyue stopped in her tracks, did she let her in alone?

I don't know if there is an ambush inside?
As soon as this idea came up, Cui Hengyue laughed at herself. There are so many masters in the North Palace, how could she care about her, a girl who burns fire?
Cui Hengyue stopped laughing, opened the curtain calmly, and walked in.

However, as soon as she entered the inner room, Cui Hengyue's eyes stared straight: it was exactly the same as what she saw in her dream.
