After the ancestors fell

Chapter 55 News
Later generations built villas outside each hot spring.Over the years, these villas have changed hands several times, and most of them are now occupied by powerful families in Shengjing.

Yuquan Villa, one of the largest hot spring villas in Xishan, was a birthday gift from Emperor Zhou to Princess Mingyu.Now I heard that Princess Mingyu went out of Beijing and gave it to a little girl when she came back.

This matter was not big or small, but it still attracted the attention of the dignitaries in the capital. It was not difficult to find out the identity of this girl. It didn't take long for all of Mu Qingfeng's apparent life stories to be written down and placed in Zhou Emperor's Before the case.

Emperor Zhou stroked his beard and casually read the memorial. When he saw Mu Shi's tragic death overnight, his expression was a little moved, "It was just an accident? Does Shen Qing know about Mu Shi's death?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, according to the information obtained by the lower officials, since the Mu family disappeared more than ten years ago, the Shen family has sent servants to Qingjiang Town several times, but I don't know why they didn't meet those two children. .”

There are a few weird things about this matter, but this is a family matter of the court officials, and they are not good at investigating it with great fanfare before there is trouble.

But Emperor Zhou finally sent a few hidden guards, ordering them to find out the truth quietly, so as not to affect Princess Mingyu.

At this moment, Mu Qingfeng was staring at a fiery red fox in a cave under the hot spring.

"I've told you everything I know,"

In the golden net, Hu Meier flicked her tail anxiously.

She has been missing for so long, I am afraid that the servants of the Shen family's other courtyard have noticed by this time, maybe someone has already sent the news to Shen Yuanhui by now.

This will not work.

Hu Mei'er was in a hurry, tears flowed from her eyes, she cried and cried, she was extremely pitiful.

"Fellow Daoist, let me go, the little demon will never forget it, and will repay your great kindness in the future."

But in my heart, I was slandering, I have no teeth to forget, the unforgettable revenge of catching me, and the reward is the grace of imprisonment.

She is a majestic eight-tailed spirit fox, but she was conspired and captured by an unknown junior, which is a great shame.It's a pity that she is not cultivated enough, there is no way to skin this person and cramps, to vent her hatred!
Mu Qingfeng has never been a benevolent person.

The fox's pathetic performance was of no avail.

Thinking of an incident that happened in Shen's residence a few days ago, it broke her and Mu Hongfei's original plan.

Mu Qingfeng asked: "Some time ago, after Miss Shen's mansion fell into the lotus pond and was rescued by someone, she suddenly suffered from the disease of losing her soul. This incident happened strangely. You have been in Shen's mansion for so long. Regarding this incident, you How much do you know?"

The fox rolled his eyes, not understanding why the other party suddenly asked about this matter.

"Why would Fellow Daoists be interested in such trivial matters? He is just a mortal without spiritual roots, so what does it have to do with them? Ah——"

Halfway through the fox's words, he suddenly screamed loudly.

Suddenly, a short blade appeared in Mu Qingfeng's hand.

The short blade shone coldly.

The next moment, it was inserted into the fox's back, and her whole fox twitched from the pain.

Mu Qingfeng withdrew her hand, and said lightly: "Whatever I ask you, you just answer, don't talk nonsense!"

"I...I know, Fairy is merciful," Hu Meier lay on the ground, repeatedly begging for mercy, "This matter has... something to do with me."

"However, I just used magic to block those servants who saved people for a while, and I don't know what happened to the rest. That day, she was Shen Yunyan who was arrogant and domineering. I just wanted to scare her. Who knew that she was so... "

Linghu is cunning by nature, Hu Meier has lived for nearly a thousand years, and has already developed the ability to judge the situation. Now the situation is stronger than others, so she can only lower her head and make herself look more obedient.

Mu Qingfeng questioned the fox for a long time with those short blades.

Foxes are treacherous, and what they say is true and false, making it difficult to distinguish.

Finding that there was nothing left to ask, Mu Qingfeng no longer hesitated, and directly took the fox demon pill with the short blade.

Without the demon pill, the fox is just an ordinary fox.

In the cave, Mu Qingfeng set up a restraining circle and sealed Hu Meier's fox body here.

The caves are located under the Yuquan Villa, which are corroded by the spring water all the year round, and some large and small caves are gradually formed in the ground.

The environment here is claustrophobic, not easy to be found.

In addition, without the demon pill, she has no mana left, and there is no possibility of escaping from here.

After dealing with these matters, Mu Qingfeng appeared in Yuquan Villa again.

There are a total of eight tenants in Yuquan Villa, and they farm and work every day.

When they saw Mu Qingfeng, the new master, they all stopped their work and stepped forward to salute.

The environment here is elegant, probably affected by the hot springs here, the climate does not change much in four seasons, and flowers and plants grow all year round. It is an excellent place for self-cultivation.

Mu Qingfeng asked someone to tidy up the room and put all the items inside.I plan to stay here next time.

By the spring, a woman in her thirties was washing mustard greens.

Seeing the mustard greens, Mu Qingfeng suddenly remembered the past.

When they were in Qingjiang Town, they really lived a miserable life.

At that time, Mu Hongfei heard from somewhere that mustard greens could be made into pickles, so he bought some on purpose, and tossed and tossed it a few times, resulting in a few pitch-black lumps of pickled vegetables, which were really hard to swallow.

Thinking of this, Mu Qingfeng's expression softened a little.

The woman seemed to be a little cautious. When she saw the master, she lowered her head deeply, and her movements were no longer smooth.

Mu Qingfeng walked up to her, and said in a gentle tone, "You are the daughter-in-law of the Qian family? Why don't you ask someone to help you with so many things?"

She has always had a good memory, and everyone she meets can remember it.

All the tenants of the villa came to kowtow to her that day.So naturally I have some impression of this woman.

This woman is the daughter-in-law of the Qian family, and the three generations of the Qian family have been tenants here.

She has a mother-in-law above her, and two sons below her. The eldest son married another daughter of a tenant family named Zhang.

The daughter-in-law of the Qian family was very surprised. She didn't expect that the new master would remember her. She wondered in her heart that she didn't do much to make the new master dissatisfied?

Thinking of this, she looked even more frightened.

"You don't have to be afraid, I'll ask you some news, you just need to tell me what you know." Mu Qingfeng comforted her.

Only then did the woman feel relieved, and told everything she knew.

Yuquan Villa covers an area of ​​more than 120 mu, including more than [-] mu of sloping land. It usually grows some fine crops such as grain and rice. The land here is fertile, and the grain grown here is better than other places, and some difficult-to-raise crops can even be grown.

In previous years, every time the crops from the village were handed over to the princess' mansion, they would get a large reward, allowing them to live a good life in the next year.

Although the common people in the capital have some criticisms against Princess Mingyu, to them tenants, she is a very fair and considerate master.

Now that there is a new owner who doesn't know the details, these tenants are actually not stable in their hearts, can't figure out their temper, and wonder if the next day will become sad?
