urge Zhao to marry

Chapter 165 Strict investigation 2
However, now things have happened.

Qin Mu could no longer hide it from her. Not only did Meng Zicheng be killed, but also those who were captured alive that day were killed, and he also told her about the Wang family, Mu family and Yu family.

Even if he doesn't say it now, the female family members of the Mu family will definitely come to ask for help later.

It was the matter of Xiao Xiuzhu that made it hard for him to talk about it.

After listening to what he said, Mu Zhaozhao also took a deep breath: "They are really self-inflicted."

Qin Mu quickly comforted her: "Don't worry, there won't be any serious problems between the two of them. Even if they lent the house to those people, they will be considered related and will be sent to the Ministry of Punishment."

"Besides, since the accident happened a few days ago, the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice has been heavily guarded. They are the safest in prison."

"Did the Chen family catch it?" Mu Zhaozhao was even more worried that Mr. Chen would escape.

"No, he disappeared with the Wang family." Qin Mu shook his head: "However, the Ministry of Punishment has sent people to Yutou County to arrest the Chen family."

Mu Zhaozhao thought for a while before asking in a low voice: "So, is Meng Zicheng really dead now? Was he murdered to silence him?"

Qin Mu nodded, and he also felt that the black hand behind the back was simply too terrifying, and he hadn't found out until now.

I'm afraid that even the Holy Majesty will have trouble sleeping and eating, and he can't wait to find out people immediately, so that he can understand how they dare to do business with Japanese pirates.

Also, what he said before was a bit of an understatement, just because Yu Song is the owner of the house, if they are charged with hiding Japanese pirates, I'm afraid it won't be a matter of being locked up for a few days and being punished a few times. , Even life is at stake.

"I understand," Mu Zhaozhao felt extremely aggrieved, and looked at him helplessly: "Cousin, am I holding you back again?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Qin Mu stretched out his hand to hold her hand: "I like you, as long as you don't dislike the right and wrong of the Xuanpinghou Mansion."

"Zhao Zhao, if you really love me, promise to marry me early, right?"

He looked sincere: "I asked someone to read it before, and there will be a good day for marriage at the end of the year."

Mu Zhaozhao didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "But I'm still young!" At this time, he still didn't forget to force the marriage, so it seems that the matter is really not big.

She was originally worried that he would be implicated in the matter of her father and uncle.

Qin Mu's eyes rolled down, his face blushed inexplicably, even his ears were a little red, and he murmured: "No, you are not young anymore!"

Mu Zhaozhao noticed his eyes, and twisted the back of his hand angrily: "Qin Mu, why have you become so glib."

"Hiss, hiss, it hurts..." Although he shouted pain, not only did he not withdraw his hand, the corners of his mouth were raised, and there was a smile in his brows and eyes, and he felt that her shameful look was also very moving.

For Qin Mu, being able to see her made him feel happy, and he wished to be with her all the time.

But he also sneaked back, he was still busy with things over there, after teasing his cousin, he hurriedly ate a bowl of noodles, and hurried out.

He still has to meet his uncle who just came back, and he has to hurry back, so as not to make people feel that he has neglected his duties.

Mu Zhaozhao hesitated for a while, but still didn't tell his mother what happened to his father and uncle.

She is still having an abortion now, and she will definitely be very angry and anxious when she hears such things, and she will worry that she will damage her reputation and whether she will be rejected by her future in-laws.

If my cousin hadn't come here before.

If she knew these things from other people, she might also worry about whether her cousin would be implicated.

Now he deliberately told himself, comforted himself, deliberately made himself laugh, it was hard for him.

But it did reassure her that she wouldn't think about it.

Not half an hour after Qin Mu left, Xiao Xiu'e and her daughter came to the door crying.

This time she didn't dare to put on airs anymore: "Zhao Zhao, that's your real father and uncle, a relative by blood, you can't just leave him alone?"

At this time, she was smart and didn't dare to mention her two sons.

After all, she and her youngest son were about to talk about marriage back then, and it was because she despised her that she was not worthy of her son that she regretted the marriage.

Who would have expected that Mu Zhaozhao would still be able to ascend to the throne now?

The capital city is really terrible, if I knew she would not have encouraged men to come to the capital city.

She didn't really care about her husband's life or death, but she was worried about her two sons.

After all, the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice sounds terrible, and I don't know what they will suffer now.

And it doesn't sound good to be rumored to be in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

She was also worried that Mu Zhaozhao's future husband and her husband's family would dislike them because of this.

It wasn't that she was thinking about Mu Zhaozhao, but that she was worried that her son would not be able to get out without the help of his son.

Mu Zhaozhao knew about these things earlier than her, so he was not in a hurry now, instead he looked at her and asked, "Why are you here alone? Where's your good sister?"

Xiao Xiu'e thought that Mu Zhaozhao had gained power now, and wanted her sister to say something nice to her, so she lied: "She heard that something happened to your father, and fainted in a hurry, or she will come to ask you for help .”

"I didn't expect you to lie to me until now." Mu Zhaozhao didn't expect that she was really kind to her sister, and now she wants to cover up the past, and said angrily: "I have already found out before that she and Wang Erye are watching in the theater. drama, and now we are going to the Ministry of Punishment Yamen together."

"What? How is it possible?" Xiao Xiu'e's eyes widened in disbelief: "Don't scare me, me, how could she do such a thing, there must be a misunderstanding."

"If you don't believe it, why don't you just ask yourself?" After Mu Zhaozhao finished speaking, he picked up a teacup to see off the guests: "Don't worry, I have already asked the prince for help, if there is any news, I will let you know. "

In fact, before she opened her mouth to ask Qin Mu for help, Qin Mu had already said that he would not let others lynch them, and wait for them to clarify how they knew Mr. Wang and Mr. Chen, and then they would be detained for a few days , I reckon he will be able to leave the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

Xiao Xiu'e now has something to ask for, and she doesn't dare to provoke others. Even if she hates her to death, she can only say with a smile: "Then it's hard work for you. I'm here, and I want to see your mother."

She felt that Mu Zhaozhao couldn't handle it now, but Yu Wanniang had been really kind to them in the past, even if she still has a grudge against them now, but knowing that something happened to Yu Song and the others, she should help, right?

"What a coincidence, my daddy Meng is back, and my mother is focused on talking with him now, and I don't have time to entertain you now, so let's talk about it another day?"

Xiao Xiu'e was so angry that she almost cursed, but she could only bear it: "Alright, if you want to visit your father and the others, you can also take me with you!"

I really didn't expect Yu Wanniang to be so ruthless now. After remarrying, in order to please her husband's family and men, she didn't even want to see her anymore.

Seeing her leave unwillingly, Mu Zhaozhao realized that when he faced them, he was already calm, without the resentment and unwillingness of the past.

Being able to let go of them was not because Mu Zhaozhao had forgiven them, but because her life became more satisfactory, and she didn't want to think about the bad things in the past.

……

"You let me down so much!" Prince Rui looked at his eldest son with dissatisfaction: "See who you are looking for, how many nails and masters we lost as a result."

Prince Qing also wished to skin Meng Zicheng with cramps, but he never thought that he would be so courageous that he dared to negotiate terms with the pirates in private.

It was just to clean up the aunt's anger, but in the end they were almost exposed.

Therefore, facing his furious father, he didn't dare to talk back, and honestly admitted his mistake: "Father, it's because I don't know people well, which caused us to lose our troops and lose our generals. Please calm down, Father."

When Prince Rui heard this, he couldn't stop cursing. After thinking about it for a while, he said, "I'm worried that the Holy Majesty will suspect us sooner or later, so prepare to do it!"

Thinking about the strong soldiers of the Xishan Daying camp on the outskirts of Beijing, and thinking about how the Holy One dealt with corrupt officials in the past, he was also on pins and needles, flustered and short of breath.

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. He really didn't want to wait for a moment, he just wanted to kill them immediately!

After hearing this, Prince Rui asked worriedly: "Father, I'm afraid we don't have enough manpower now!"

He still knew something in his heart, those imperial guards were definitely not weak, and if he acted rashly, he was afraid it would be bad luck.

Prince Rui had a plan long ago: "May [-]th is the Empress's birthday, there will definitely be a palace banquet, then the fireworks will be replaced with gunpowder, and our people will pretend to be jugglers to go in, even if they can't be blown up, they will still be able to kill them." Take advantage of the chaos and assassinate them."

His eyes were a little crazy: "It would be great if we killed several princes in a row."

He had waited too long for that position.

Furthermore, in the current situation, the only way to cut through the mess quickly may be unexpected results.

Prince Rui knew that his father had planted a few hidden stakes in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and thought that if the matter was completed, he would be the crown prince, so he couldn't help but get excited: "Father, it would be great if someone could take the opportunity to set fire."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Prince Rui glared at his son, "If the imperial palace is burned down, it will take a lot of effort to rebuild it, and it will delay us moving in."

He regards the imperial palace as his own property, so he is naturally reluctant to destroy it.

After finishing speaking, he instructed him: "You try to win over as many Imperial Guards as possible these days, and it's best to make them feel apprehensive."

In the past, in order not to make the Holy One suspicious, they rarely interacted with the imperial guards.

But now that they are ready to do it, they don't need to worry about it.

The thing is done, he is the Holy One.

If things fail, they will all die.

Prince Rui responded.

Prince Rui recruited a few more confidants, and began to discuss how to get more of his own people in.

"My lord, the head of the House of Internal Affairs is Zhang Huai'en, so be careful, but the deputy head is old-fashioned, so we can use him for us."

"My lord, it's a bit difficult to get the gunpowder in. The Imperial Guards are doing a good job of investigating. We can find the commander of the Imperial Guards. Although he is loyal, he is a bit stubborn, so it's easier to fool him."

"We need to find a suitable juggling troupe as soon as possible, so that none of them will be left, so we can enter with their quota..."
