Mrs. Shizi, she is both wise and brave

Chapter 177
After listening to Su Jingning's words, Mu Chen felt sad for a while, and then sighed: "I'm just a little worthless for my grandfather!"

Su Jingning couldn't help being silent when she heard the words.

Maybe it's because no one is perfect, but my grandfather was famous for his first life, but he didn't have a good eye for his disciples.

"Since he has already taken the chapter away, the rest of the matter will be much easier, as long as my cousin knows it well." Su Jingning withdrew her thoughts and said.

"Well, cousin, don't worry, the Mu family will be fine." Mu Chen hurriedly said.

After speaking, he looked at Shen Lingze who was at the door. He was standing with his back facing them, with a tall and slender back, and he was not a gentleman.

As if aware of the gaze from this side, he turned his head and looked over, just in time to meet Mu Chen's gaze, the two nodded at each other, and then looked away.

"Cousin and Prince Rui seem to be very familiar with each other?" Mu Chen hesitated and asked.

"Well, I accidentally helped the Elder Brother when I was in Qingyun Temple, this time it happened that Prince Rui's people surrounded Mu's house, so I invited him to help, it would be more convenient." Su Jingning said.

Seeing Su Jingning's calm expression, Mu Chen reluctantly believed her words, but said again: "It's too risky for you to come here this time, you must not do this in the future, it will be bad if someone finds out."

"Anyway, I can do the rest, so don't worry too much."

Su Jingning responded with a smile.

The matter has been clarified, and she felt relieved, so she got up and said goodbye.

Mu Chen sent her and Shen Lingze outside the courtyard, bowed his hands to Shen Lingze and thanked him: "Thank you, my son, for your help. After the Mu family is cleared of suspicion, I will come to thank you."

Shen Lingze chuckled when he heard the words, and said gently: "Brother Mu, you are being polite, we are all from our own family, so you don't have to be so outsider."

Mu Chen was stunned, and felt that the words were strange, but he couldn't say what was strange for a while.

Su Jingning didn't think much, and said goodbye to Mu Chen: "Cousin, go back, we're leaving now."

Mu Chen didn't have time to think, and immediately nodded in response.

Shen Lingze and Su Jingning returned the same way, left Mu's house, and drove to Su's house in a carriage.

Because of keeping a low profile, except for a lantern hanging outside the car to illuminate the road, the inside of the car was pitch black.

At this time, it was the third watch, and Su Jingning became more and more sleepy after letting go of her worries. After getting into the carriage, she huddled in a corner and began to close her eyes to rest her mind.

It's just that this is a bit uncomfortable, and she felt a little uncomfortable after leaning on it for a while.

When he opened his eyes, it was still pitch black, and even Shen Lingze's shadow could not be seen clearly.

Su Jingning thought for a while and quietly kicked off her shoes, curled up and slept with her legs hugged.

Anyway, it's so dark that you can't see anything, and you don't have to care about your appearance.

It's just that she didn't know that Shen Lingze who was opposite her could clearly see her little movements, which caused bursts of smiles in his eyes.

Who told him that night vision is also good!
However, he was not going to remind Su Jingning that he could see it, he just watched quietly without making any sound.

Soon, Su Jingning fell asleep.

When they got near Su's house, Su Jingning didn't wake up when the carriage stopped, but fell asleep directly.

Shen Lingze looked at the little man huddled into a ball in the corner, and felt tenderness in his heart.

He struggled for a while and really couldn't bear to wake up Su Jingning, so he simply got up and put away his shoes, then picked her up and got off the carriage.

Chun Shui, who was waiting outside, showed excitement when he saw this, and jumped into Su's house ahead of time with a wink, and opened a corner door from the inside.

It's always inconvenient to jump into the wall with your sweetheart in your arms!
Shen Lingze hugged Su Jingning and walked smoothly all the way to her small courtyard.

Su Jingning is very light, Shen Lingze doesn't struggle to hold her, but her little head gently rests on his chest, as if with infinite trust and dependence, filling his heart with sweetness and tenderness .

When she returned to Xiaokuayuan, Nian Qing was shocked when she saw Shen Lingze come back with Su Jingning in her arms, thinking that something happened to Su Jingning.

It wasn't until Shen Lingze gestured to her that he realized that his master was just asleep.

She watched Prince Rui's son carefully carry her master onto the bed, and then lightly cover her with the quilt, she couldn't help being a little dazed.

She really couldn't help but think about it, why did she feel that the way the prince looked at his master and how his actions today were so unusual!
Could it be...

She suddenly thought of a possibility, and her heart beat like a drum.

Shen Lingze helped Su Jingning tuck up the quilt and got up. He glanced at Nian Qing who was a little dazed, and said, "Take care of your master."

After speaking, he looked back at someone's slightly moving fingers on the bed, chuckled and left.

After the people left, Su Jingning immediately opened her eyes, with a faint pink glow on her face.

It was true that she fell asleep at first, but she woke up when Shen Lingze picked her up.

It's just that it was too embarrassing, so she continued to pretend to be asleep without thinking about it for a while.

But Shen Lingze had always been practicing martial arts, so he must have noticed that her breathing was disordered, so he just pretended not to know and hugged her back.

Su Jingning raised her hand and touched her hot face annoyedly, her mind was in a turmoil, thinking about her uncle and Mu's family for a moment, and remembering the strong heartbeat that she heard just now when she was leaning against Shen Lingze's chest. Instead, he fell asleep unconsciously.

……

In the next few days, Han Hui exposed his mentor Mu Changyun, and his younger brother Mu Xiuzhu's collusion with the enemy and treason quickly spread throughout the capital, and there was even a tendency to continue to expand it.

However, the controversy about the corruption case in Taihe Province gradually disappeared, and it was temporarily put on hold and no one brought it up again.

Most importantly, Prince Rui found a letter written by Mu Changyun himself to the Tatar leader in the manuscripts and letters left by Mu Changyun, which completely confirmed the crime of colluding with foreign races.

Emperor Wen Si was furious and ordered Mu Xiuzhu to be recalled for strict interrogation, and the Mu family was also thrown into prison.

Different from internal affairs, this crime of treason is the most serious, and anyone who is contaminated with it will be in great trouble, so everyone avoids it.

For a while, the common people and students who had originally supported Mu Xiuzhu fell silent, and dared not speak for him again.

The Mu family has been reduced to the point where no one cares about them, and even some old acquaintances want to step on the Mu family one after another in order to clear the relationship.

As in-laws, the Su family was naturally afraid of being implicated. Su Shenghua personally ordered someone to guard Su Heng's study and Su Jingning's yard, and strictly prohibited them from going out again.

Afterwards, he even went to the Princess Mansion in person to show his favor to Cheng An, and wanted to help the Su family get rid of the suspicion through her, in order not to be implicated.

Cheng An naturally complied, and went into the palace himself.

Su Shenghua and He Shi were immediately satisfied, and deeply felt that marrying a daughter-in-law of the royal family was still very good.
