The general's wife is pretending to be weak again

Chapter 103

Before Mu Qingyu could see clearly what was going on in the room, a pair of thick and rough hands covered her eyes.

A hoarse voice sounded in her ear, "Don't look."

Just as Mu Qingyu was about to say something, he smelled a strong smell of blood.The stench was really unpleasant. She wanted to take a step back uncontrollably, but the back of her head hit the chest of the person behind her.

The person behind took her back into the yard, and Li Zhao didn't take her hand away until the door was closed.

Mu Qingyu's face was pale. Although she had died once, the smell in the room, the smell of blood close to death, terrified her strongly.

"What did the people inside say?" Li Zhao asked.

The guard guarding the gate said: "They said that it was Wang Yueniang from Dingguo's mansion, and told them to arrest the second lady and hide her in the ruined temple first, and then release her after asking for a ransom."

Mu Qingyu clenched her fists and clenched her teeth.How could Wang Yueniang do such a vicious thing?
Not only can Mu Qingyu's reputation be ruined, but Wang Yueniang can also get a large sum of money, which is really killing two birds with one stone.

Mu Qingyu really wanted to applaud Wang Yueniang's intelligence.

Mu Qingyu kept her head down, Li Zhao couldn't see her expression, but could feel her anger and powerlessness.

He had already sent someone to inquire about Mu Qingyu's situation in Dingguo's mansion.

The dignified daughter of Duke Dingguo's mansion was bullied by a concubine and concubine, and even her eldest sister could be rude to her in public when she went outside.

But it was precisely because of this that Mu Qingyu was able to give up on the marriage contract with the Xian Wang, otherwise Li Zhao would have to spend a lot of effort.

"I'll go back with you." Li Zhao took the initiative to speak, and there was a hint of warmth on his cold face.

"Thank you," Mu Qingyu raised his head and said softly, "I can go back by myself, and leave these five people to the general."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and was about to go to the gate of the General's Mansion.

Li Zhao sighed softly, and told the people in the room: "Throw them out."

After speaking, he turned around and went after Mu Qingyu.

The five people in the room were still stubborn when they first arrived at the general's mansion.But these people in the general's mansion are on the battlefield all year round, and they often capture the enemy, and they want to pry their mouths open to get real information.

They know how to torture people the most, and they have the strength to speak.

These five people stood up for less than half an hour, and then they said everything.At this time, they were sober and rational from the pain, but they wished that they would pass out immediately, so that it would be over once and for all.

Li Zhao ordered people to throw them out, in order to let them destroy themselves.

Mu Qingyu insisted on going back by herself, so Li Zhao arranged for a carriage to take her back, and secretly sent a man in black to accompany her.

Mu Qingyu went to pick up Mo Zhu first, and then asked the carriage to go to Duke Dingguo's mansion.

Back at the Duke's Mansion, before the two of them had time to rest, Second Master Mu sent someone to call Mu Qingyu over.

Mo Zhu simply cleaned up Mu Qingyu, and Mu Qingyu went to Mu Erye.

She asked Mo Zhu to find a maid who came to deliver the news today, and went to find Second Master Mu by herself.

I saw Erye Mu was in the study, and there was a man standing in the study.

When the man saw Mu Qingyu coming in, he lowered his head guiltily.

Mu Qingyu naturally noticed it. She suppressed her suspicions, first went to Mu Erye to say hello, and asked, "What does Father want from me?"

"I heard from the steward that the jewelry shop you took over was also stolen. First, Zhuangzi was caught on fire and the jewelry shop was stolen, and these things happened one after another. You are young and don't know how to deal with it. Why don't you take over the old one first?" Leave the farm shop to me." Second Master Mu said with his father's airs.

"Did the steward say it?" Mu Qingyu stretched out her jade finger, pointing at the strange middle man in the room.

The man froze for a moment, lowering his head even more.

"It's him, but that's not important. What's important is that there should be no more trouble."

"Could it be that father thinks that the farm shop is in trouble because it was handed over to me?" Mu Qingyu asked innocently.

Facing Mu Qingyu's probing eyes, Second Master Mu couldn't help but nodded, so he had to shut up and take it as acquiescence.

Mu Qingyu sneered secretly, what, does this mean that she is a disaster star?Bringing disaster?
"Father, don't worry. I just came back from the shop that was stolen. I have already reported to the police. Please ask Mr. Xu to investigate. What's going on?" Mu Qingyu said calmly.

"What?" the manager of the jewelry shop said in astonishment.

After finishing speaking, she knew that she had almost slipped her feet, so she quickly corrected it: "How can miss go out alone? It's too dangerous outside, and the second master will definitely handle the theft properly."

"Yeah," Mu Erye also blamed, "How can you go out alone? This time you didn't drag your elder brother along."

"I was also impatient, so I went there alone. But Mr. Xu is a good man, and he promised to help me investigate the theft." Mu Qingyu kept looking at the manager from the corner of his eye, and it turned out that the manager was guilty of guilt. To dodge, just refuse to look at her.

"Master Xu?" Second Master Mu looked a little weird, "Is it a young man named Xu Yuzhou?"

"I don't know his name, I only know that he is a young man surnamed Xu." Mu Qingyu said truthfully.

Mu Erye has a strange expression, why is that Xu Yuzhou getting along with a good guy?

Xu Yuzhou is a rookie in the capital city in recent years. He doesn't know how to do things, and he doesn't know how to be flexible. He has offended many dignitaries.

If it weren't for someone behind him, according to his upright temperament, he would have been killed hundreds of times by his enemies.

"Did you ask him to investigate the theft?" Second Master Mu asked again with a little hope.

Although he didn't know why Second Master Mu had such an attitude towards Xu Yuzhou, Mu Qingyu nodded honestly.

"How could you leave it to him?" Second Master Mu couldn't help getting angry, "How did you know him?"

"Speaking of which, I would also like to thank Guanshi Xiao. Last time at Zhuangzi, it was Guanshi Xiao who invited Mr. Xu here."

"You mean, Guanshi Xiao was also taken away by him?" Second Master Mu was so shocked that he was almost speechless.

Mu Qingyu nodded.

Second Master Mu slapped his thigh in frustration. He originally thought that the officials would look at Dingguo's government's face and release Guanshi Xiao after a few days.

But Guanshi Xiao was taken away by Xu Yuzhou?Then Xu Yuzhou would not let him go unless he found out the truth, and the same was true for the theft of the jewelry shop.

Which high-ranking family has no shady things?
If you ask Xu Yuzhou to investigate, you can't tell that even one or two of these secret things will be found out for you.

Erye Mu's head instantly grew bigger.

The manager of the jewelry shop had also heard about Xu Yuzhou's deeds. If Xu Yuzhou was handed over the theft, Xu Yuzhou would not give up unless the matter was thoroughly investigated.

"Second...Second Master!" The steward said in panic, "I have something to tell you, little one."

Second Master Mu was worrying, but upon hearing this, he just nodded and motioned for the steward to continue.

But the steward kept looking at Mu Qingyu with his eyes, implying that Second Master Mu asked Mu Qingyu to go out first.

"What do you have to say that I can't listen to?" Mu Qingyu asked bluntly.
