The reborn daughter seeks marriage

Chapter 205 Suspicious Clouds
There was no answer, Mu Qifeng didn't move, just hugged Chuwu tightly, the look on his face was so painful, but it explained everything.

Timidly approaching the old Hou Ye's bed, Mu Qiyue reached out tremblingly and held those cold hands.In the past, she would never have the guts to treat her grandfather like this.The coldness of the hand, the pale face, the face without a trace of life, all proclaim that this person is already dead.

"Wow!"

As if getting an electric shock, she let go of Old Master Hou's hand, Mu Qiyue jumped up, threw herself into Mrs. Mu's arms and burst into tears.That voice was earth-shattering, yet so heart-piercing.Mrs. Mu's heart sank, her face became desperate, and big tears soaked Mu Qiyue's shoulders.

"What's going on, what's going on?" She couldn't bear to growl anymore, Madam Mu took her son's hand, wanting to ask what happened.At this moment, a servant stumbled in and said timidly.

"No...it's not good! The government is here!"

"I'll go out and see!"

Mu Qifeng got up and quickly left the room. Why would the government come at this time? The expression on his face suddenly became gloomy, and an ominous premonition emerged in his heart.Things happened one after another, as if out of control, he seemed to be caught in a conspiracy, surrounded by unpredictable crises.

When I walked to the hall, I saw several officers and soldiers standing there. They were wearing official uniforms unique to Dali Temple, and their expressions were extraordinarily serious.Seeing Mu Qifeng appear, the leading man immediately stepped forward and bowed to him, which was considered polite.

"I've seen my son!"

"You don't need to be too polite, I don't know what is the matter of your sudden visit to the Hou's mansion?"

"My son, the so-called prince violated the law and the common people are the same crime. Lord Hou killed Li Shaotang, the son of the Minister of the Household Department, in Qunfang Pavilion today. There are all witnesses and material evidence. There will be a public trial tomorrow. We are here to inform you that you will come to Dali Temple tomorrow morning." .”

Even though he had expected that it would not be a good thing, Mu Qifeng's strong body couldn't help but tremble a little, looked at these officers and soldiers with a pale face, and said incredulously: "This...is it true?"

How could such a thing happen?He was still wondering whether his father had killed his grandfather just now, but now these people gave him such a bolt from the blue again.Everything that happened today seems to be testing his ability to bear, and it has even exceeded his imagination.

"Does Dali Temple still play tricks on people? We have already brought the words, so let's say goodbye!" The man cupped his hands. Although Hou Ye killed someone and violated the law, Mu Qifeng is still the son of the world, not them Officers and soldiers can be easily offended.

"Wait, my dad, where is he now?" Taking a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, Mu Qifeng spoke slowly.

"Now in the sky prison of Dali Temple, if Shi Ziye wants to visit the prison, you can go back with us now!"

"Okay, I'll go with you now!"

The prison in Dali Temple is not as eerie and terrifying as outsiders imagined, but the dim candlelight and dead silence give people a chilling feeling.However, at this moment, a roaring voice broke the tranquility. This voice made Mu Qifeng's body freeze suddenly.

It was him, Mu Zhengtian, his father.

"Let me out quickly, I didn't kill anyone, I didn't do it, it wasn't me!"

"I'm the Marquis of the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, you bastards, how dare you disrespect me?"

"I didn't do it on purpose, I didn't do it on purpose, woo woo woo woo..."

After the roaring scolding, it seemed that all emotions had reached a certain point, disintegrated and defeated at this moment.A big man actually cried so miserably.Mu Qifeng walked over slowly. Because of his special status, Mu Zhengtian was placed in a separate compartment without guards.Inside the cell, a middle-aged man with disheveled clothes and the smell of blood fell powerlessly on the ground, crying in despair. He was in such a state of embarrassment and bewilderment that he had never experienced before.A simple meal was placed on the table next to it, but it was not touched.Mu Zhengtian seemed to be immersed in his own world, and he didn't even know that someone was approaching him.

Mu Qifeng couldn't describe the feeling in his heart at this moment, disappointment, sadness, anger, and confusion.This man is his father, but he is also a man who he looks down on at all, and even resents him in his heart.He hated him, hated his flair, hated his weakness, and even more hated his indifference to his mother.

But now, seeing him in such a state of embarrassment, with such complicated feelings, he could no longer make a sound.He really wanted to ask him, what happened?How could he kill people in public, and his grandfather died, did he know, did he do anything?
His body was trembling slightly, and his breathing became heavy. Mu Zhengtian on the ground finally raised his head slowly, seeing Mu Qifeng, a glimmer of hope suddenly appeared in his eyes.He immediately stood up, rushed to Mu Qifeng, held his hand tightly, and shouted excitedly.

"Feng'er, save me! I want to go out, I don't want to stay here!"

"Why did you kill people? They said that you had a dispute with the son of Hubu Shangshu because of a brothel girl, and you beat him to death. There were not many people present at the time. Do you think such a big thing happened? , is it possible for you to go out?" Opening the mouth dryly, Mu Qifeng looked at him, feeling like he was suffering from colic.

"I didn't, I didn't do it on purpose, and I don't know why, I was so impulsive at the time. Feng'er, you have to trust me, you must save dad!" Shaking his head fiercely, Mu Zhengtian's eyes were full of love. terrified.

"Shangshu Hubu has already gone to His Majesty to read a book for you. He is his son-in-law. It is impossible to let it go like this. How do you want me to save you?" Mu Qifeng opened his mouth indifferently, and Mu Qifeng wanted to laugh, but his heart was full of bitter.How can this matter be good, even if an ordinary citizen is beaten to death by him, it cannot be easily resolved, let alone the person who died this time is actually the son of an official family.

"There must be a way, there must be! By the way, let Dad go. Dad is an important minister of the two dynasties. His Majesty has always respected him. As long as Dad comes forward, I will be fine!" There was hope in his eyes. Mu Zhengtian His expression was becoming crazy, but at this moment, the image of the old man sitting on the chair without making a sound appeared in his mind.I couldn't bear it any longer and squatted on the ground with my head in my arms, shaking my head desperately, no, it wasn't him, nothing will happen!
Hearing Mu Zhengtian mentioning the old Hou Ye, Mu Qifeng's eyes turned red in an instant. He stared at the man below, and it took him a long time before he spoke with difficulty: "Grandfather, he is dead..."

"No, it's not me, I didn't do it!"

Mu Zhengtian let out a shrill roar, his whole body trembled, no, he didn't, he didn't kill his father, that's not what he wanted to do, no...

"The servants said that you were the only one who went to grandfather's yard this afternoon, and after you left, grandfather died. Dad, what happened? Tell me, tell me!" Mu Zhengtian was lifted up. , What I saw was just a pair of eyes dodging around in panic and fear, and the abnormality in them made Mu Qifeng feel a pain in his heart.How could he want to believe, how could he believe that the man in front of him was actually the executioner who killed his grandfather?
"Did you kill grandfather with your own hands?"

Opening his mouth with difficulty, Mu Qifeng knew how much he longed in his heart, all of this was just an illusion.

"Why did you do this? Are you so cruel just because your grandfather doesn't agree with you marrying that prostitute? He is your biological father!"

"I didn't kill him... No, I didn't mean it... He forced me! He forced me!"

Mu Zhengtian huddled on the ground, the look in his eyes was frantic, revealing an abnormality.Although Mu Qifeng was angry and sad in his heart, he also noticed his abnormality, and couldn't help but lowered his head and asked, "What's wrong with you? What did your grandfather force you to do?"

Suddenly, with a thud, Mu Zhengtian fell to the ground, foaming at the mouth, and seemed to have passed out.Mu Qifeng's expression changed, he immediately squatted down, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Come on!"
