Don't be defensive girl, I'm blind

Chapter 169 Nangong Wei's Touch, Leaving Coldly (Must-see! Please subscribe)
"Can you see it?!"

At this moment, Xue Mu was very embarrassed.

He didn't expect Nangong Xue's brain circuit to be so peculiar.

But it's normal.

So he thought of an excuse and said, "Actually, I smelled the rouge on her body, and felt a little different."

"You can smell this too?" Nangongxue was a little surprised.

Xue Mu said with a smile: "Invisible with the eyes, it naturally has advantages in other areas."

After hearing this, Nangong Xue was a little surprised, but finally agreed with Xue Mu's statement.

After a brief observation, the body of the palace lady in front of him has no external injuries, and there is no trace of poisoning.

Basically other man-made homicides can be ruled out.

Just as she was about to leave, Xue Mu noticed a detail.

That is, there are slight bruises on the forehead and hairline of the maid.

Showed some scratches.

Like bumped into.

In order to attract Nangongxue's attention, Xue Mu said deliberately: "Yes, besides the rouge, is there anything else found on her face?"

Nangongxue shook her head: "Other than that, there seems to be nothing else."

Then, she took another look.

It was this glance that made Nangong Xue discover the slight bruise on her forehead.

She observed carefully, and found that there were still some turquoise in the scar, like moss.

"It seems that when she jumped into the well to commit suicide, she bumped into the inside of the well." Nangongxue explained.

Xue Mu felt like it too.

It's just that his speculation is more inclined to be someone pushing her from behind and falling in, which caused her forehead to bump.

However, the most important thing now is to ask about the people the palace girl has been with before.

So Nangong Xue and Xue Mu walked out.

Eunuch Cao recalled: "This court lady is named Xiao Wu. She entered the palace last year and was Xin Zhekuli's laundry maid. There are two or three court maids with her. This old slave will take you there."

"By the way, Eunuch Cao, are the court ladies and eunuchs who died in the cat monster incident also in the morgue?" Xue Mu asked suddenly.

"Yes." Eunuch Cao nodded.

Nangong Xue immediately asked: "Then can you take us to see it?"

Speaking of this, Eunuch Cao hesitated.

Seeing his hesitation, Xue Mu asked, "What's the matter? Eunuch Cao."

Eunuch Cao explained embarrassingly: "We didn't take it seriously before, so I don't know where the old slave was at the beginning, and it may have been transported away."

"If that's the case, forget it." Seeing that it was getting late, Nangongxue said, "How about we go to Xinzheku tomorrow and ask those court ladies, Eunuch Cao, you have worked hard too."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." Eunuch Cao explained quickly.

He then looked at the two: "Those two adults, this old slave will take you out of the palace first."

Nangong Xue wanted to nod, but suddenly thought of something.

After struggling for a while, he finally said, "Eunuch Cao, I want to go see Concubine Mu Gui."

"Okay." Eunuch Cao naturally knew the relationship between Concubine Mu Gui and Nangong Xue, and quickly agreed: "Then I will take you there."

"No need." Nangongxue explained: "I know the way to Concubine Mu Gui's palace, so I won't bother Eunuch Cao, Eunuch Cao has worked hard today."

"No hard work, no hard work, I hope the two adults can figure out the case of the cat demon as soon as possible. The people in our palace have been affected to some extent, so I will ask the two adults." Eunuch Cao said cheerfully.

In this way, Eunuch Cao left.

After he left, Xue Mu deliberately asked, "Lord Nangong, are you going to see Concubine Mu Gui?"

"En." Nangong Xue responded, and then she also looked at Xue Mu and explained: "Mu Guifei is my aunt, if you are not in a hurry to go back, you can go to her place with me."

"it is good."

Xue Mu answered very straightforwardly.

Nangongxue led him towards the direction of Penglai Hall.

On the way there, Nangongxue was a little curious.

He found that Xue Mu didn't ask too many questions about himself and Concubine Mu Gui.

This also made Nangongxue feel that Xue Mu is a person who knows the size.

Don't ask what you shouldn't ask.

But what she didn't know was that Xue Mu had already known about the relationship between the two of them.

She even found out about her aunt.

Now, her aunt is her own aunt.

Not long after, they came to Penglai Hall.

Yun'er outside the palace was very surprised when he saw Nangong Xue and Xue Muhou.

She immediately walked into the bedroom and reported to Nangong Wei.

"Ma'am, Sister Xue'er and Master Xue are here." Yun'er stepped forward to explain.

At this time, Nangong Wei was reading a book, she did not expect Nangong Xue and Xue Mu to come.

And they came together.

So he stood up curiously.

Go outside the hall.

Haven't reached the gate yet.

Nangong Xue and Xue Mu walked in.

At this moment, Nangong Xue's face was slightly red.

She didn't know what her purpose was.

He even brought Xue Mu to his aunt.

Is this, to some extent, something solid?
Nangong Wei was also happy when she saw her niece, so she stepped forward and asked, "Xue'er, why are you here?"

"Entrusted by Eunuch Cao today, I came to the palace to investigate the matter of the cat demon." Nangongxue explained.

"Oh? Cat demon." Nangong Wei was not surprised at all. She looked at Xue Mu at the side, so she pretended to be puzzled: "Xue'er, this is it?"

Hearing these words, Xue Mu naturally understood that Nangong Wei wanted to deliberately ask herself in front of Nangongxue.

Sure enough, Nangongxue quickly explained: "This is Xue Mu and Xue Qianhu from the Shenhun Division."

Later, she also introduced Nangong Wei to Xue Mu: "Xue Mu, this is my aunt, and also the concubine Mu Gui."

"Xue Mu has seen the imperial concubine and empress." Xue Mu naturally had to play a full set.

Nangong Wei laughed: "So this is Xue Qianhu, I can't believe he is so young and handsome."

Yun'er was listening to the conversation between the two old foxes, and couldn't help laughing for a moment.

Obviously the two have met.

Now I have to pretend that I just saw it.

Only Nangongxue was left in the dark.

Xue Mu looked at Nangong Wei, and found that the two aunts and nephews were standing together, but they looked alike.

Most importantly, there is absolutely no ambiguity where it should be.

It seems that the blood of the Nangong family is big lumps and long legs.

Looking at the two beauties in front of him, plus a little girl who is still developing.

Xue Mu was the only man in the entire palace.

I have to say, it was really a feast for the eyes.

It's a pity that these three women can only watch but not eat.

Of course, my trip to the palace today is not a disadvantage.

After all, as early as the afternoon, Mo Xi'er had already tasted it.

Not even a bit left.

Therefore, Xue Mu's desire at the moment is not so high.

Nangong Wei asked Yun'er to give the two of them a seat, and then explained: "My aunt has also heard about the cat demon incident."

"Auntie, did you also hear the meowing?" Nangongxue asked.

Nangong Wei shook her head: "I didn't hear it, but Yun'er and the others did."

"Your Majesty, when did you hear the meowing?" Xue Mu immediately asked.

Nangong Wei looked at Yun'er: "Yun'er, do you still remember?"

Yun'er thought for a while and replied, "About ten days ago."

Nangongxue asked again: "Is the deceased found today in the well outside the Penglai Hall?"

Nangong Wei nodded: "Yes, a maid of Xin Zheku."

"Auntie, do you know her?"

"do not know."

"Where is Yun'er?"

Yun'er shook her head: "Yun'er doesn't know him either."

Nangong Xue was also puzzled, but she didn't think too much. She told Nangong Wei: "Auntie, try to stay in the bedroom these days, don't go out, be careful of danger."

Nangong Wei said calmly, "Don't worry, few people come here from my Penglai Palace."

"Then why did the maid of Xinzheku throw herself into a well outside your palace?" Nangongxue asked back.

Nangong Wei came to her and poked her lightly with her finger: "Well, Xue'er, you will teach your aunt a lesson, right?"

Nangong Xue said expressionlessly: "Anyway, be careful in everything in the palace. I don't want to hear the news of your accident the next time I enter the palace."

"Bah, bah, you crow's mouth." Nangong Wei frowned.

Xue Mu watched the two aunts and nephews sing together, and found it interesting.

Compared to Nangong Xue's indifference, Nangong Wei was much more enthusiastic.

Perhaps it was too long, so Nangong Xue proposed to leave.

Nangong Wei said: "Xue Mu, you stay here for a while, I'll talk to you about something."

Nangong Xue was a little puzzled, she turned to look at Nangong Wei, wondering what her aunt wanted to do.

Nangong smiled: "Xue'er, you go outside the hall and wait."

"Why? What do you want to tell him?" Nangong Xue frowned.

Nangong Wei put on a showy look: "I won't tell you."

"Don't say anything." Nangong Xue didn't care, she walked out of the palace and waited.

Nangong Wei glanced at Yun'er, and Yun'er naturally understood.

Soon, only Nangong Wei and Xue Mu were left in the palace.

"Xue Mu."

"I don't know if your mother wants to keep Xue Mu down, do you have any instructions?" Xue Mu asked.

Nangong Wei changed her relaxed look just now, but said with a serious face: "If you can't find out the mastermind behind the cat demon incident, then don't investigate any more."

"Why?" Xue Mu didn't understand.

Nangong Wei explained: "You don't need to ask more about this matter, as long as you can't find out, then immediately ask the Queen for your crime, and she will not punish you."

Although Xue Mu didn't understand why Nangong Wei reminded her so much?
But he knew that, as Nangongxue's aunt, she would definitely not frame Nangongxue.

So Xue Mu also nodded and said: "Don't worry, ma'am, I will definitely remember."

"Yeah." Nangong Wei was also very satisfied: "You performed well today, you didn't show your feet just now, Xue'er probably didn't know, you and I have known each other for a long time."

Xue Mu smiled and said, "Sister Xue'er is probably still worried about the safety of the empress."

"Her girl is heartless." Nangong Wei sighed: "By the way, you have to protect her safety, and you have to be more careful yourself, you know? Don't think that the palace is safe, it even requires her to be safe." It's more dangerous than outside."

"Xue Mu would like to listen to your mother's instruction." Xue Mu said immediately.

"Okay, hurry up and get out, or that girl will start thinking wildly." Nangong Wei urged.

"Yes! Your Majesty." Xue Mu was about to leave.

Nangong Wei thought of something and wanted to hold him back.

It ended up grabbing his hand.

But Nangong Wei, as Xue Mu's aunt, naturally didn't think too much about it.

Instead, he took out two jade pendants from his body, and said to Xue Mu, "Here are two jade pendants, which can ward off evil spirits, one for you and one for Xue'er."

"This..." Xue Mu felt that it was a bit expensive, and said quickly, "Madam, it would be fine if you don't give it to Sister Xue'er, and I don't need it."

"What are you talking about?" Nangong Wei said seriously: "You two need to be good, so that you can flourish in the future, Xue'er will be counting on you."

As she spoke, she patted Xue Mu's hand.

I have to say that Nangong Wei's hands are very tender.

Even a little more tender than Nangong Xue.

She is indeed a woman in the palace.

Naturally, it needs to be well maintained.

Xue Mu pretended to decline.

But Nangong Wei still put the jade pendant on him.

"Let's go, pay attention to safety."

"Yes, ma'am."

Xue Mu left.

While walking, Nangong Wei watched his back from behind.

I have to say that if she didn't know that Xue Mu was blind, she would feel no different from a normal person.

"I really hope that he is a normal person. In this case, Xue'er can have a good home." Nangong Wei said with emotion.

After walking out of the palace, Nangongxue looked at Xue Mu.

"Sister Xueer, let's go."

"Ah."

At first, Nangongxue ignored her and walked towards the city gate.

But later, she finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked Xue Mu, "What did my aunt ask you for?"

"Your Majesty said just now that if you can't find the mastermind behind the cat demon incident, then don't investigate any further, and go to the Empress Dowager to confess your guilt honestly." Xue Mu replied.

After hearing this, Nangong Xue was a little puzzled: "If that's the case, why did I have to talk to you alone?"

"This"

Naturally, Xue Mu wouldn't tell Nangong Xue that Nangong Wei wanted him to grow up with her, right?

So he also took out two pieces of jade pendant from his bosom and said: "This is what my mother gave me, and one piece is for you to ward off evil spirits."

"I always believe in these things." Although Nangongxue complained, she still put the jade pendant away.

Then she asked Xue Mu again: "Is there nothing else besides these?"

"Nothing."

Xue Mu shook his head.

Seeing this, Nangongxue stopped asking.

It wasn't until she walked out of the palace and returned to the Department of Detectives that she said to Xue Mu, "I'm afraid this matter is not easy. Let's focus on Huang Haigui first, and we must find out the inner ghost in the Ministry of Punishment."

"Okay, everything will be arranged by Sister Xue'er."

"Okay, it's getting late, you should go back and rest quickly." Nangongxue worried that it was getting late, so she asked, "Do you want me to take you back, it's late at night."

Xue Mu laughed: "Sister Xue'er, I can't see clearly whether the night is deep or not. Walking by feeling is the same."

"alright."

Nangongxue hesitated to speak, and finally walked into the Shenhun Division.

Xue Mu naturally wouldn't let Nangongxue send him back.

After all, he, an old man, would not encounter anything on the street, but it was different for her as a woman.

Finally got home.

This day can be regarded as a lot of things.

Xue Mu felt that he could finally rest.

Unexpectedly, I just walked in with my front foot.

He heard Xu Ruyan's voice: "Mu Lang, Sister Leng is gone."

As soon as these words came out, Xue Mu's nerves tensed up again.
