Chapter 179 Interrogation
"It's good for the fourth sister to know, and she must never say such things again in the future, so as not to ruin her reputation and make her unable to marry, and bring down the whole family's sisters." Su Jingning replied.

Su Jingyue was so angry when she heard the words, she had no choice but to agree.

However, she was still very reconciled, she ground her teeth and said, "Although my sister's words are rough, it is not unreasonable. If you dare to betray the country and surrender to the enemy, this fate is considered light. The third sister will see it when the time comes."

Su Jingning was not afraid at all when she heard the words, she just replied indifferently, "I don't need to worry about this, the fourth sister will not worry about it, and the Holy One will make his own decision at that time, and the fourth younger sister cannot control it."

Su Jingyue hit a soft nail, and her heart became more and more upset. She really didn't expect that she just wanted to come and see Su Jingning's jokes, but she would end up in this situation.

She hated Su Jingning's sharp teeth in her heart, but because she was afraid that what she said before would miss the point again, she didn't dare to say more, so she stomped her feet and left in resentment.

Su Jingning didn't care at all, and immediately told Nian Qing after the person left, "Let the lady guarding the door be more alert, don't let everything in."

Nian Qing immediately responded and went out to find the gatekeeper.

Anyway, the mansion just didn't let her young lady go out, and didn't say anyone could come in.

Those who don't have eyes, those who are annoying, naturally have to shut the door, so as not to be an eyesore.

Everyone felt that the Mu family was over, so naturally no one in the mansion was willing to curry favor with Su Jingning, on the contrary, they all stayed away, lest they would be implicated.

And he also obviously neglected her a lot, and the meals and snacks he sent were all second-class things.

Nian Qing was so angry that she cursed these people for being snobby, but Su Jingning didn't care much.

In her previous life, she had eaten leftovers and bad rice, and these were nothing to her.

What she cares more about now is the situation of the Mu family.

Two days later, after Prince Rui asked Emperor Wen Si for instructions, he finally wanted to interrogate the members of the Mu family.

Because the matter was of great importance, not only did they invite several princes to be on the list, but Emperor Wensi even sent Qi Ruoying, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, to assist.

Because this matter started when Han Hui exposed Mu Changyun and Mu Xiuzhu's collaboration with the enemy, Han Hui was also required to listen to the announcement and testify in the hall.

Prince Rui quickly ordered someone to bring the Mu family up.

Everyone in the Mu family went, all dressed in coarse prison uniforms, and were brought to the hall with handcuffs and shackles.

This was the first time Han Hui had seen the Mu family since he reported on the Mu family.

Headed by Mrs. Mu, although she was imprisoned and wearing prison clothes, her whole body was clean and tidy, her face was calm and composed, her head held high, and even the youngest Mu Qing showed no trace of fear on her face, which made people look at her. Inexplicably not daring to feel contemptuous.

Regardless of their camp, everyone present secretly praised the character of the Mu family in their hearts.

On the other hand, Han Hui was a little guilty when he saw the Mu family, he looked away uncomfortably, and dared not raise his head with his head down.

As soon as the Mu family stood still, a government servant stepped forward to press them down to the ground.

The action was very rude, let alone other people, Mrs. Mu is very old, if she is pushed, she will definitely fall badly.

In order to protect his grandmother, Mu Chen stretched out his hand to block it, but was kicked and fell to the ground instead.

Chen's beloved son was eager, and rushed over with a cry of grief, but was cruelly pulled away by the yamen servant.

Seeing her mother and elder brother being bullied, Mu Qing couldn't stand up and immediately rushed over.

For a while, the hall was in chaos.

Seeing this, the sixth prince frowned, and said: "Hugh is so rude, Mrs. Mu is old, how can she stand up to being pushed and pushed by you!"

The yamen servant paused when he heard the words, and hurriedly retreated.

The fifth prince on the side heard a sneer and said: "Sixth brother knows how to be polite, and he still doesn't forget to care for the old man at this moment, but brother has to say one more thing, this is the family of the traitor, and sixth brother's compassion is still the same. It’s better not to move around, to avoid misunderstanding.”

The sixth prince was not afraid at all, and asked instead: "What is the misunderstanding? I am sitting upright, how can I be afraid of this! Besides, Grand Master Mu and Mu Yushi have not been designated as traitors yet, Mrs. Mu She is a first-rank Madam, so she is entitled to be taken care of, so why is there anything wrong with this Palace?"

The fifth prince let out a "hey" when he heard the words, but he didn't expect the sixth prince to dare to support the Mu family so openly.

He was still about to speak when Prince Rui, who was at the top, suddenly said, "The Sixth Highness's words are reasonable, Mrs. Mu doesn't need to kneel down, just listen to the summons."

After Prince Rui had spoken, Mrs. Mu bowed and sincerely thanked her.

Prince Rui began to ask directly: "Old Madam Mu, presumably you also know the purpose of my king's invitation of the Mu family here. Do you know about the fact that Minister of Rites Han Hui sued Lingfu and your son for colluding with the Tatars?"

"Returning to the prince, this is not a matter of knowing or not knowing, but that the husband and dog would never collude with foreigners at all. This is an unwarranted slander." Mrs. Mu said solemnly.

"Oh?" Prince Rui frowned lightly, and said, "But this king has found the correspondence between Mu Taishi and the Tatar King in the Mu family, and Han Hui even provided the Tatar King to write to Mu Taishi. How do you explain this letter?"

"Impossible, the Mu family is loyal to the country, with a heart of sincerity, they will never do such a rebellious thing, and the minister's wife has to suspect that those letters are forged." Mrs. Mu's face did not show the slightest panic.

Mu Chen on the side endured the pain and immediately answered: "That's right, my father is now investigating the case with Taihe, and such a major event happened to the Mu family. Mr. Han reported that the Mu family was collaborating with the enemy and treason, and the boy had to wonder if it was Han. My lord is related to this corruption case, so I deliberately violated morals to smear my mentor, just to prevent my father from continuing to investigate the case."

Han Hui couldn't care less about guilt when he heard the words, and hurriedly defended, "Mu Chen's nephew, don't want to spout blood. Although I value the teacher's kindness, I value the king's kindness even more. Since I found out that the Mu family colluded with the enemy, although it was heartbreaking, I still reluctantly reported the matter. Everything I do is for the sake of the Holy Majesty, and only for the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty!"

As soon as these words came out, a look of anger suddenly appeared on Mu Chen's face, "No matter how righteous Master Han said, it can't cover up the fact that you are an ungrateful villain.

His grandfather taught him carefully for many years, and his grandmother's hustle and bustle day and night turned into a white-eyed wolf. Not only did he not remember the slightest affection, but he even bit the Mu family back, which really opened his eyes! "

As soon as these words came out, Han Hui's face turned pale and white, and it took a long time before he said again, "Mr. Han certainly remembers the relationship between Mr. and Mrs. Mistress, but if it is wrong, it is wrong. Han can't turn a blind eye and cover up with foreigners. Colluder!"

Mrs. Mu sneered when she heard the words, and said: "You know the truth in your heart. Now, in front of all your highnesses and lords, I am expelling you from Hanhui for my husband. No matter what happens to the Mu family in the future, you are no longer Mu Changyun's disciple, let's sever this relationship!"
