Chapter 17 I Don't Believe!
Mu Guoli didn't keep Peng Ke waiting long.

He had just finished drinking a cup of tea and wanted to refill his second cup. A girl in a traditional Chinese costume, with an exquisite fringed hairpin on her head, bright eyes and white teeth, looked forward to looking at her, and she bent her slender waist and took small steps. Slowly walked into the main hall.

Peng Ke, who was drinking tea from a teacup, just looked at her appearance, and already felt that he was fascinated by those smart eyes.

"Little girl, Mu Xiyun, I have met Mrs. Peng." Mu Xiyun walked five steps in front of Peng Ke, put his right hand on his left waist, put his right foot on his back, slightly bent his knees, and bowed his head to give her a blessing salute .

"Ah, oh hello"

Peng Ke nodded a little awkwardly, and unconsciously used the common language from his previous life before realizing that he was being impolite, and added: "Miss Mu, I am three years older than you, if you don't mind, just call me Brother Peng will do."

Mu Xiyun stood with her hands back, nodded with a very cold expression, then raised her eyes to look directly at Peng Ke, and asked a bold sentence: "Brother Peng, are you satisfied with me?"

satisfy!Not satisfied!

Penke kept nodding in his heart.

Finally, my father stopped fooling him. Mu Xiyun's appearance can indeed be called stunning, with a small face no bigger than a palm, with beautiful eyebrows and straight nose, white teeth and red lips, and looks like Penke. The big stars I saw on TV in my previous life didn't lose at all.

Although it is said that a wide suit hides the figure, it can still be felt vaguely, and it should also be exquisite.

No matter in terms of appearance, demeanor, or temperament, she can be called a peerless beauty.

And she's a rich woman, with such a good blind date, how can there be any reason to be dissatisfied?

But he can't just boast that he is rich and good-looking, right?

Peng Ke's little head turned around quickly, and he remembered a very famous poem that became popular on the Internet in his previous life, so he blurted out:
"There are beauties in the Mu residence, peerless and independent."

"One look at the city of people, and then look at the country of people."

"Ning don't know the beauty of the city and the country? A beautiful woman is hard to come by."

This is "Song of Li Yannian", a famous little poem in the Han Dynasty, after Peng Ke slightly changed two words, he recited it directly.

Using this poem not only fiercely praised Mu Xiyun as a peerless beauty who is rare in the world and can never be found again.

Moreover, he also expressed his determination "Even if the city and the country are all over the place, don't lose the good chance to get a beautiful woman"!

On this occasion, when Peng Ke chanted this poem, it can be said that he was directly expressing his love boldly.

Sure enough, after hearing Peng Ke recite this poem, even Mu Xiyun, who had been calm and courteous since entering the door, blushed suddenly.

Peng Ke was too bold and enthusiastic. Mu Xiyun, who had never been so frankly and fieryly confessed by a man of his age, was really overwhelmed.

Mu Xiyun blushed and lowered her head, took a deep breath, managed to control her embarrassment, and then raised her head again. Her bright deer eyes didn't dare to look directly at Peng Ke anymore, she only dared to look at him. His chin was suppressed and he said shyly: "I know, Daddy wants me to marry you."

"The order of my parents, the words of a matchmaker, I can't resist."

"Fortunately, brother Peng, you are also a good-looking talent, and you are in a high position. You must have no shortage of talents. You are an excellent match."

"However, I have one more request, I hope Brother Peng can help."

"As long as you agree to my request, I will repay your kindness with a knot of grass in the future, and repay it with my whole life."

Penke frowned slightly.

Although Mu Guoli is just a merchant, it must not be difficult to meet the requirements of his eldest daughter.

What matter does Mu Xiyun have to solve with his father instead of an outsider like him?
After thinking about it for a while, Penke guessed a rough idea.

He hesitated for a moment, and said with some confusion: "Miss Mu, do you want me to help you investigate the murder of your brother?"

"As far as I know, hasn't Uncle Mu already investigated the situation and brought the murderer to justice?"

After thinking about it, it seems that this is the only thing that can make Mu Xiyun entrust Peng Ke, the head of Jinyiwei.

But to be honest, it is not easy to overturn the verdict on such a matter that has already been concluded. If it is handled carelessly, it is very likely that it will do bad things with good intentions.

Mu Guoli himself has already come to a conclusion on this matter, which shows that he has also turned the page in his heart.

There is absolutely no need for Penke to intervene in unnecessary actions.

Most of them end up with a thankless result.

But when Mu Xiyun heard what Peng Ke said, her eyes immediately turned red, and she looked like she had been greatly wronged. Her shoulders twitched sharply, she bit her lip, and said tearfully, "That's not true!"

"My brother's death is definitely not that simple!"

"It must be that Fang's victim!"

Penke shook his head, spread his hands and asked, "Is there any evidence?"

"Uncle Mu is such a shrewd person, he has obviously ruled out Madam's suspicion. Even if the suspicion is not cleared, or there is even a slight possibility of suspicion, I believe that Uncle Peng will not correct Madam Fang again."

Mu Xiyun shook her head sadly. If she had evidence, she wouldn't ask Peng Ke for help.

But she still said firmly: "Although there is no evidence, my mother once said before she passed away that Fang has long had unreasonable thoughts about the position of mother's wife."

"Furthermore, in March of the year my elder brother was murdered, Fang was pregnant, and my elder brother was killed in May. If it hadn't been for Fang's miscarriage, perhaps her son would have become the sole heir of the Mu family."

"She had a good reason to kill my brother in order to bet on the birth of the child in her belly!"

"Oh? And this?" Penke was a little surprised.

He really didn't know that Fang was pregnant the year his elder brother Mu Xiyun died. After all, it seemed that the child hadn't been born, and Jin Yiwei didn't even bother to investigate such a thing.

But according to Mu Xiyun, if Mu Xiyun's elder brother was killed, the number one suspect must be the Fang family.

But looking at the final result, Fang's suspicion was cleared, and he was promoted as his wife.

Now, Peng Ke really started to feel a little curious. He asked suspiciously: "How did Fang clear the suspicion, and what is the final murderer?"

Mu Xiyun raised his head and smiled miserably, and said in a mocking tone: "Daddy has hired people from the Silent Sect to help track down the group of thieves who killed my brother."

"Buyanzong found the gang of thieves who killed his brother in half a month, and Wuyanzong also gave their complete whereabouts. From the plot to the attack to the escape, there is evidence all the way to prove that it is indeed They did."

"According to the information given by Bu Yanzong, Dad asked the local government to do something, and they were quickly arrested and brought to justice. Under the punishment of the government, they confessed quickly."

"Not only was the confession correct, but he even explained exactly how he conspired to kill his brother, how many times he was stabbed, and where he was stabbed, and the place where the body was dumped afterwards was also identified on the spot."

"According to the group of thieves, they were originally a group of thieves in the mountains, and they were motivated by money."

"As for the Fang family, of course it has nothing to do with it."

"So, the Fang family, who has been staying in the capital and doesn't know this group of mountain thieves at all, is naturally cleared of suspicion."

"But, I don't believe it!"

"I can't believe it's that simple!"
