Chapter 176
The entire Zuoxiang mansion had been plunged into darkness, only the orange candlelight was faintly revealed in Li Luoyuan's study.

Xie Muyan, who was sitting in the study, carefully looked at the information sent by her subordinates by the light of a candle, not knowing that the Tsingyi team had silently solved a big threat for her.

She also just found out that Mu Jiayu's red team was in charge of collecting and transmitting information.That is to say, Mu Jiayu's subordinates are in charge of many information-intensive places, such as restaurants, brothels, etc., without everyone knowing.

Compared with him, the information collected by her Mu Xitang and Mu Chenxuan is simply nothing.

She rubbed her sore eyes, looked at the densely packed traditional characters on the paper, couldn't help lying on the table, and sighed softly.

All these papers contained records about Xiujin's appearance, but there was no sign of Fairy Su'e.They must have separated, no wonder when I tried my best to find the two of them, but failed, it turned out that I was looking in the wrong direction.

According to the newspaper, Xiujin should have left Qiancheng with Fairy Su'e shortly after she left, and went to the nearest Jincheng. It was also from here that she lost news of Fairy Su'e; After tossing and turning, I arrived at Jiucheng, which is not far from the capital.

After arriving in Jiucheng, even Xiujin's traces suddenly disappeared, as if she realized that someone was following her and tried to avoid her.

"Hey, you three are so late, what have you been doing? Why do you still smell like blood? Why don't you hurry up and wash yourself up, if you scare Miss Xiner, you will look good!"

Outside the door, Ye Gucheng's disgusted voice suddenly came.From the thick nasal sound in his voice, he should have been awakened by the sound in the yard after falling asleep, so he came out to check the situation.

Xie Muyan opened the door lightly, and Qing Li's deliberately low voice came into her ears very clearly.

"Are you clairvoyant or clairvoyant? We're so quiet, can you spot us?"

Qing Li's eyes widened, and he stared straight at Ye Gucheng who was blocking their way.

Qingyan and Qingzhu standing behind him also nodded in agreement.

"You guys aroused my suspicion because of your small movements. I thought there were thieves in the house again."

Ye Gucheng looked them up and down, and finally covered his nose, his face was full of disgust, Qing Li only felt annoyed, wishing to beat him into a flat cake.

"While your kid was sleeping, if we hadn't stepped in, Li Luoyuan would really have been invaded by thieves."

Qing Li snorted, and wanted to say something more, but when he saw Xie Muyan standing not far away from them, he immediately fell silent and looked around randomly.

Xie Muyan put her arms around her chest, looked at the two who seemed to have done something wrong, and said cold words from her slightly parted red lips.

"Say."

A single word seemed to have magical powers, making Qing Li, who didn't want to explain, involuntarily touched his forehead, and he unconsciously spoke out briefly what happened.

"Princess Tianxiang sent someone to kill you, my lord. He was the first to get the news, so he sent 30 people from our Tsing Yi team to kill them before they approached Zuoxiang's mansion. Oh, wait... My lord, no Let me tell you this. Don't you sell me!"

It wasn't until he told the whole story that Qing Li belatedly remembered that Mu Jiayu had told him not to let Xie Muyan know about it.But the words he said and the water he poured out didn't have the function of turning back time, so he had to make up for it, rubbing his hands constantly, and showing a flattering smile on his face.

Listening to Qing Li's words, Xie Muyan was slightly taken aback.

Mu Jiayu didn't want her to know, why?Do I want her to focus on finding Xiujin wholeheartedly, or do I not want her to know that he treats her well...

Xie Muyan only felt that her heart was in turmoil right now.It is said that a woman's mind is hard to guess, but she has only now truly felt that a man's mind is also hard to guess.

Especially a man who only showed the tip of the iceberg.

"Miss, if there is nothing else, let's go take a shower and go to bed first. If you have any questions, just ask Boss Qingli."

Qingzhu yawned.He had done a lot of things just now, and now he was exhausted.He barely opened his hazy eyes, put his arms around Qing Yan's shoulders and walked towards Zhong Hai's empty room in Li Luoyuan.

"It's getting late. You guys should also hurry up and rest."

The night wind blew on his body, bringing a burst of coolness.Xie Muyan pulled the cloak around her back forward, looked at them thoughtfully, and opened her mouth softly.

After finishing speaking, she turned around and walked into her study.She didn't want the complex emotions in her eyes to just show up in front of them.

But after a while, the lanterns in the study also dimmed.

Just like Mu Jiayu, Xie Muyan also moved her bedroom into her study for the convenience of work, and placed a bed in the innermost part of the study, so that when she feels tired at night, Can lie in bed and rest for a while at any time.

Since this is an extraordinary period, Xie Muyan also got rid of her bad habit of sleeping in.When it was just dawn, she opened her eyes without Xin Ran's calling.

After washing and washing by herself, she left the Zuoxiang mansion by herself, and headed towards Mu Jiayu's palace. It was only at this moment that she realized that Xinran had followed behind her at some point, neither approaching nor far away. Just silently protecting her safety.

Due to the relatively cold weather and the fact that the sky has not fully brightened yet, the street is deserted and there are almost no people. The quiet surroundings echoed the soft footsteps of Xie Muyan's feet on the ground.

Along the way, she didn't find any corpses, nor did she see any bloodstains, so Qing Li and the others must have handled it well last night.

It is not difficult for them to kill people, but it is a huge project to destroy the scene.After all, no one wants to leave any clues about the murder, let alone the one who killed Princess Tianxiang's subordinates.

The guards of the palace are very familiar with stabbing Mu Yan, so even if they saw her sneaking over the wall and sneaking towards Mu Jiayu, they just turned a blind eye. Just close one eye.

When Xie Muyan walked to the study, Mu Jiayu seemed to have expected that she would come, the door of the study was open, regardless of the cold wind pouring in, almost blew out the stove for heating in the room.

"You also read Xiujin's news?"

Xie Muyan's nose was already red from the wind.She stretched out her hand, which was as red as a carrot, and warmed it by the stove. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the paper that Mu Jiayu was holding.

It was exactly the same as the one I got.

"She disappeared when she was in Nine City. She may have left the capital silently, or she may... be in danger."

Mu Jiayu's eyes only stayed on Xie Muyan for a while, and then shifted to the paper in his hand.He touched his chin with the other hand, revealing a pensive expression.

Xie Muyan's eyes also suddenly widened at this moment.

That's right, when she was in danger, why didn't she think of this?
Not to mention that Fairy Su'e is no longer by Xiujin's side, even if she is, her internal strength has been consumed by the cold poison to the very last.In addition, Xiujin doesn't have any martial arts, and she grew up in the valley, so she may not understand the world.

When they first met, it could be seen from Xiujin's downcast appearance.

Mu Jiayu's words sounded her alarm.She had to intensify her investigation.

She came here in person this time to discuss with Mu Jiayu about Xiujin, and now that her goal has been achieved, she should leave quickly.But she herself didn't know why her feet seemed to be fixed in place, and she didn't want to move half a bit.

I hoped that Mu Jiayu would tell her what happened last night in person, but as time passed, Mu Jiayu's eyes did not shift to her once, as if he was stuck by the information in his hand.

"Have you ever thought that if we can't find Xiujin, then we should make double preparations and train someone so that she behaves exactly like Princess Tianxiang."

It took a long time before Mu Jiayu opened his mouth, but his eyes did not change at all.

Xie Muyan didn't answer.The two of them were deadlocked in the study.No one said a word, and there was no other action.

An awkward atmosphere circulated between the two.Xie Muyan didn't know what was going on with her, she had clearly confirmed her feelings for Mu Jiayu, but she hoped that Mu Jiayu would show her kindness to her.

Such tangled emotions made her feel at a loss for a while.

"Miss, something seems to have happened at the gate of the city. Many people have gone to watch the fun, so why don't you go and relax?"

Xinran's voice sounded softly at the door of the room, breaking the silence in the room, and let Xie Muyan quietly breathe a sigh of relief, secretly thinking that Xinran's words came just in time.

At that moment, she raised her head and took a look at Mu Jiayu, seeing that he didn't mean anything, she was too lazy to say hello, so she walked towards the gate of the palace with Xinran.

Hearing the sound of Xie Muyan's footsteps gradually moving away, Mu Jiayu put down the paper in his hand, looked at her back, and never left his eyes until her figure disappeared around the corner.

"My lord, you haven't slept all night. Now rest for a while."

Wan Jing's figure suddenly appeared beside Mu Jiayu, looking at his tired face, and then at the figure that had disappeared in front of the study door, he sighed slightly.
