Chapter 74
The icy lake water instantly submerged him, pouring into his nostrils, blocking out the aroma of the outside world, and the river surged, completely waking Zhong Ming awake.

This is not a dream!

The treason is true, and so is the person waiting for him in the palace ahead!
What about the father?

He turned his eyes and looked over, only seeing the vast lake surface with rippling water, where could he see his father?
On the shore, a girl stood by the lake holding a lantern.

The girl is wearing an autumn-colored fairy dress, and her figure is reflected on the water, gracefully and gracefully.

She knelt down and reached out her hand towards Zhong Ming.

Zhong Ming swam close, and was about to reach out to pick it up, but was startled when he saw someone coming: "It's you?"

"Why are you here?"

Mu Qingchao smiled brightly at him: "My niece doesn't know that my uncle still has such a knot in my heart. Today, my niece helped my uncle solve my knot for many years. Shouldn't my uncle thank my niece?"

This fantasy is not easy to come by, especially one of the datura flowers is one that Mu Qingchao got many years ago.

She has always cherished it and was reluctant to use it, but using it on Zhong Ming today can be regarded as the full of their blood and family affection.

"It's all your fault?" Zhong Ming's eyes were filled with astonishment.

"What the hell do you want to do?"

However, Mu Qingchao seemed to have never heard Zhong Ming's words, thinking about other things.

"Hmm... Uncle, do you think your grandfather has been treating you badly?"

But she clearly heard from Zhong that her grandmother was depressed all her life, and later she suffered a serious illness because of a knot in her heart, and finally passed away.

If the grandfather was really so kind to the grandmother, why did the grandmother die in depression?
Although the grandfather took a concubine, in this era, it is quite normal for a man to take a concubine, and the grandfather's heart is biased towards the grandmother after all.

Why should grandma annoy herself to death because of such a trivial matter?

There must be something hidden in this.

Mu Qingchao suddenly remembered that when he was young, he had asked his mother when he found this incense book left by his grandmother.

What kind of family is my grandfather's mother's family, and why there is such a fragrance.

My mother just said casually that my grandmother was an ordinary merchant family, but later the family fell into poverty and married into my grandfather's family.

An ordinary merchant's daughter, who was born in poverty, how could she become a good lady just because she married into a hairpin family like her grandfather?

And this fragrance book...

Later, Mu Qingchao became very interested in incense, and read all the books on incense making in the world.

But there has never been a book as wonderful and strange as this one.

Is this really something that a merchant can own?
If the grandmother's family really passed down such a treasure from generation to generation, how could it be lost halfway?
Now that I think about it, there are doubts everywhere.

But now Zhong Ming is full of hatred towards her, how can he answer her question kindly?
Looking at the hand she stretched out, his heart became ruthless, and he stretched out his hand and pulled her down.

"what!"

Mu Qingchao suddenly came to his senses, he was already in the icy lake.

Her water skills were good, she turned around and swam towards the shore.

But how could Zhong Ming let her go at this time?One hand clasped her backwards, pushing her against the river bank, and the other grabbed her neck.

Zhong Ming's eyes were already red. Now that he has reached this point, he doesn't care whether the person in front of him can be killed or not.

He also has to fight when he encounters ghosts, can he still be afraid of Mu Qingchao?
He didn't care about Mu Qingchao's plans and backhands. At this point, he already had no way out.

Either be rich and prosperous, if he can't get it, he will kill one and count as one.

His whole body was already soaked by the lake water, his hair was sticking to his face in a mess, and he squeezed Mu Qingchao harder with both hands, his eyes were scarlet and crazy.

How is he still like the elegant and dignified Shoufu lord in the court before?

Now it looks like a ghost.

he murmured.

"What are you going to do? What are you going to do?"

"Why are you everywhere? Why do you have to fight against me everywhere?"

"Damn you, damn you..."

Chuchu, Yingying, dad helped you avenge...

Mu Qingchao could feel the air in his lungs being squeezed out bit by bit.

She had difficulty breathing, but her hand hidden in the water quietly took out a dagger.

She is a person who puts a dagger by her pillow when she sleeps, how can she put herself in a dangerous situation without being fully prepared?

She came to see Zhong Ming alone, so naturally she already had a plan.

Seeing Zhong Ming's expression getting more and more crazy, Mu Qingchao raised his hand, and the dagger quietly hung on the back of his neck.

She was not soft-hearted, she raised a knife and fell...

Although it is said that after Zhong Ming's death, there will be many troubles in the follow-up, but he has already passed the situation, so this little trouble is nothing to worry about.

However, at this moment, a group of people suddenly rushed to the shore.

In time, the lights illuminated the entire lakeshore.

Seeing this, Mu Qingchao quickly hid the dagger behind his back.

Although she was doing things for Shen Muchi, she was too ruthless, which was not good for herself.

A person who is too ruthless should be guarded against. Except for Zhong Ming today, Shen Muchi may not be able to guard against himself in the future.

Just as she was thinking, she saw that Shen Muchi had already stepped forward a few steps and kicked towards Zhong Ming.

As the prince, Shen Muchi is not too bad in terms of Wen Tao or Wu Lue, so he kicked it up with a lot of strength.

Zhong Ming couldn't bear it, and fell back into the river.

Taking advantage of this gap, Shen Muchi reached out and pulled Mu Qingchao up.

"Are you alright?"

He looked at Mu Qingchao and asked, the concern in his eyes was very real.

He even took off his cloak and covered Mu Qingchao.

Mu Qingchao quietly hid the dagger in his sleeve, looked up at Shen Muchi and shook his head.

"Thank you for your concern, the girl is fine."

At this time, Zhong Ming had already been captured by Shen Muchi's guards.

"Let go of me, let me go, why do you arrest me?"

Zhong Ming was still clamoring, trying to make a final struggle.

Shen Muchi turned her head to look at Zhong Ming, the expression in her eyes no longer had the respect it used to have.

He walked towards Zhong Ming and kicked him again.

Zhong Ming couldn't bear it naturally, and knelt down on the ground.

In the past, he had the merit of being a dragon, and it was Shen Muchi who personally decreed that he would not have to bow down.

Today, it was also him who kicked Zhong Ming to kneel in front of him.

"Why arrest you?" Shen Muchi said.

"Rebellious officials and thieves, if you commit crimes below and try to murder the Queen Mother, it is enough to implicate your whole family."

"What queen?"

Zhong Ming asked back: "Which of you saw it? What evidence do you have? I haven't seen any empress dowager who lives in seclusion and respects the world.

What I see is just a seductress who looks at you with smoke and charms and seduces the emperor and cholera!

As the chief assistant, I admonish the emperor and all the officials, killing a witch is for the sake of the world, for the sake of the country, why dare not?

On the contrary, Your Majesty, as the Son of Heaven, are you not afraid of being dissatisfied by civil and military officials, or criticized by the people of the world, for poisoning a loyal minister for a misbehaving witch? "
