Mrs. Shizi, she is both wise and brave

Chapter 78
After what happened on New Year's Eve, Su Jingning didn't talk to her, and the courtyard was peaceful.

Dan Yun thought that he hadn't been discovered, and after a few days An Sheng went secretly to the big room again.

Su Jingning didn't care about it, these few days she only cared about her grandparent's family coming to Beijing, and it's the same when she comes to rectify it later.

Therefore, she only ordered Nianyu Nianqing to look at some people and not to care too much.

Because the canal was frozen, Mu Xiuzhu traveled by land this time, so the father and daughter went to the city gate to pick him up.

Not long after arriving, I saw a carriage approaching from a distance.

Su Jingning had good eyesight, and she became excited when she recognized that the driver in front was the driver of the Mu family.

"Father, uncle is here!" She called Su Heng.

Su Heng carefully identified for a while and nodded with a smile.

"It's our master." Mu Hai beside him was also very happy.

When they got close, the carriage slowly stopped in front of several people.

The curtain of the car was lifted from the inside, revealing a refined and easy-going face.

It was Mu Xiuzhu.

"Uncle!" Su Jingning took two steps forward and her eyes became crescent moons with a smile.

Mu Xiuzhu couldn't help laughing when he saw his niece.

He looked at Su Jingning for a while and saw that her face was rosy and she was full of energy, so he was relieved, and he responded gently before getting out of the car and talking about old times with Su Heng.

The two looked at the towering city walls of Kyoto with emotion.

After a long absence, I finally came back here again.

"When will grandma and the others arrive?" Su Jingning's question interrupted their emotion.

Mu Xiuzhu calculated in his mind and said, "It will only take three or four days."

He left the Mu family's convoy and rushed here alone because he would be appointed as an official after the seal was opened, and the rest of the Mu family were not in a hurry.

In this way, Su Jingning is also very satisfied: "I miss my grandmother and the others very much!"

Mu Xiuzhu looked at her lovingly and said with a smile: "Your grandmother always misses you too, luckily we will see you soon."

Su Jingning nodded.

Su Heng smiled next to him: "Let your uncle get in the car quickly, and you can go home early so you can rest."

Su Jingning looked at Mu Xiuzhu, saw that he looked tired and immediately responded, urging him to get in the car.

On the contrary, Mu Xiuzhu was surprised to see their father and daughter getting along so harmoniously talking and laughing.

When Su Jingning was in the Mu family, she was very resentful towards Su Heng.

For many years, he didn't even send a letter to Su Heng, and he didn't even touch the things that Su Heng sent. Su Heng wanted to know about his daughter's situation and had to ask him. How did the estrangement disappear in just a few months?
However, it may also be the nature of father and daughter, and they will naturally get close when they get close.

He secretly guessed in his heart and got into the carriage again.

All the way back to Mu Mansion, several people took their seats in the hall.

After drinking a cup of hot tea and some snacks, Mu Xiuzhu relieved some of the fatigue from the journey, and he looked much more refreshed.

He then talked about his recovery.

"After the Lantern Festival, I will enter the palace to thank you when the [-]th seal is opened."

Su Heng said: "It's okay, brother. It's much cheaper for the Holy Majesty to give you an appointment directly. If you want to come and thank you, you can join the job, and you don't have to wait for the assignment."

Su Cheng, who returned to Beijing to report on his work, has been running around these days, looking for classmates and friends to get a good job.

Mu Xiuzhu nodded, and the two chatted again.

Su Jingning looked up at Mu Hai while drinking tea.

After receiving the hint, Mu Hai thought for a while before laughing: "A few days ago, I put things away, and the servant has been unable to settle some accounts. Could you ask my uncle to go and show it to the servant?"

Before Su Heng could speak, Mu Xiuzhu looked up at Mu Hai several times.

He is well aware of Mu Hai's ability, he has always been clear about the accounts, and he has taught his son and daughter how to count in the past, so how could it be possible that they can't get the accounts right now.

However, he looked at his niece, who was drinking tea with her head down, and didn't speak.

Naturally, Su Heng didn't think so much. As soon as he heard the words, he immediately complied, got up and walked out with Mu Hai, and asked Su Jingning to accompany Mu Xiuzhu to talk.

When the two disappeared, Mu Xiuzhu looked at Su Jingning and said with a smile: "You girl, do you want to whisper something to your uncle and ask Mu Hai to send your father away?"

Su Jingning blinked her eyes and said, "Nothing can be hidden from my uncle's sharp eyes."

Mu Xiuzhu always loved his niece, and they got along like father and daughter. Hearing her words, he laughed and said, "Naughty."

Su Jingning chatted a few more words with him before getting down to business.

"Uncle, do you know the reason for the recovery?"

Mu Xiuzhu was even more puzzled when he heard this.

He thought that his niece was looking for him because of family affairs, but he didn't expect her to talk about his own affairs.

However, after pondering for a while, he still replied: "According to Mu Hai's inquiry, it was the Holy Majesty who recalled your grandfather by accident and called me back to Beijing."

Of course, he didn't really believe this rhetoric, but he had been away from Beijing for many years, and his contacts in Beijing and China were almost cut off, so he had to think long-term if he wanted to inquire.

But he didn't intend to tell Su Jingning these thoughts, after all, in his heart, his niece was just a child, so there was no need to know these things.

It was just Su Jingning's next sentence that surprised him.

Su Jingning said: "This is just an excuse on the surface. In fact, the prince secretly contributed to this matter."

Regardless of Mu Xiuzhu's face, she continued to say: "Now that the Seventh Prince is in full swing in the court, the Prince is gradually weakening. In order to disperse the power of the Seventh Prince, this is why they thought of the Mu family. They want you to be with me." The Bo family is fighting in the ring."

Mu Xiuzhu was a little distracted after hearing this, but what Su Jingning said made a lot of sense after thinking about it.

However, he raised his head and looked at his niece carefully, adding to his doubts.

"How did Aning know?"

Su Jingning smiled playfully but avoided his question: "Anyway, uncle just believes in Aning."

Mu Xiuzhu saw that she didn't want to say anything and didn't force it, so he thought about it for a while, nodded and said, "Uncle knows it well."

Anyway, regardless of whether his recovery was caused by the prince or not, the Mu family and the Bo family will not let it go.

On the contrary, if this matter is true, in order to suppress the Bo family, the prince will definitely help him secretly, which will benefit both him and the Mu family.

Su Jingning looked at her uncle's expression and knew that he understood clearly, so she felt relieved.

But Mu Xiuzhu thought of another thing and asked her: "Why did I hear that you asked Mu Hai to monitor Master Han Huihan?"

Su Jingning nodded and said bluntly: "This Mr. Han is not a good person, uncle should be more careful about him in the future."

Without blinking her eyes, she repeated the lie she lied before: "Someone said they saw him walking with Bo Hao from the Bo family."

But Mu Xiuzhu is not Mu Hai, so it is not easy to be fooled. He asked: "Who saw it? Can you find this person? When did he see it?"
