However, she was only halfway through when she saw a flash of white light, and in just an instant, Mu Ziyan disappeared at the end of the corridor.
"Uncle Master" Mu Ziyan now had her back pressed against the cold white jade stone wall.
Her small body was shrouded by the tall figure in front of her.
She calmly looked at his masked eyes.
This was the first time she had seen him.
Looking at him so closely.
It's just that this posture is a bit weird now, and the person in front of her doesn't seem to be so aware.
She only feels that the eyes in front of her are as clear as a pool of water, but bright and bright.
She deliberately reminded him, but he remained motionless, looking down at her, "Yan'er likes Prince Qi."
"Uncle Master left a note asking the disciple to come out just to ask this question."
Mu Ziyan's eyes flashed with coldness and she looked directly at him.
Chu Ye's lips hidden under the mask were slightly pursed.
The white jade-carved mask was cold and moist, which made his eyes as bright as stars.
He exuded a faint orchid aura without any medicinal herbs.
The taste is a bit more sweet.
The corner of her mouth curled up slightly, thinking that there was something happening outside, so why would she stare so big and small?
"Uncle, I still have something to do.
If uncle has no other instructions, I will leave."
Mu Ziyan whispered.
Seeing that he had no intention of getting out of the way, she raised her hand and pressed him against the wall.
The upper arm waved away.
Chu Ye raised his lips and smiled, showing a hint of grace, "Take this thing."
Then he handed her an embroidered handkerchief embroidered with red plums, "It can save lives."
Mu Ziyan looked at him puzzled, "Where did this come from?"
"Stealed."
After Chu Ye said that, he disappeared in a flash, but the faint breath that seemed to be there was still lingering in her breath.
Mu Ziyan lowered her head and stared at the red plum square handkerchief.
It was made of fine ice cicada silk.
The embroidery was exquisite.
The red plum embroidery was delicate and proud, and its tentacles were cold.
She stared at the square handkerchief, thinking about this owner.
It must be noble and extraordinary.
She gently brought it close to the tip of her nose and sniffed it.
She could smell the faint fragrance of plum blossoms.
She raised her eyebrows and murmured, "It's really stolen."
While she was thinking about it, footsteps were heard not far away.
Mu Ziyan quickly put away the square handkerchief, raised her eyes and looked around.
Chu Ye really knew how to find a place.
She walked forward along the path in front, and then You can go directly back to your seat.
Mu Ziyan listened to the footsteps getting closer and closer, and walked forward quickly.
After crossing the path, he slowly returned to his seat.
When Mu Zixi saw Mu Ziyan came back after a while, she thought she was going to change her clothes.
However, seeing that she was still wearing the same dress she was wearing just now, a calculating look flashed in her eyes and she asked in a low voice, "Sister. , where have you been?”
Mu Zixi's words can always attract the attention of others, and those who can attract attention are either people who care about you, or people who want you dead.
Obviously, Mu Zixi fell into the latter category.

She looked at Mu Ziyan worriedly, "My younger sister thought that my eldest sister was going to change her clothes.
By coincidence, it will be my sister's turn later."
Mu Ziyan turned to look at Mu Zixi.
He was not angry because of her, or had a guilty expression.
He just whispered, "I was too drunk, so I walked away and came back after the smell of alcohol dissipated."
"I see."
Mu Zixi asked with a smile, "Eldest sister needs to change her clothes."
Mu Ziyan smiled lowly and said, "It's good for the two sisters to enjoy themselves today."
"Sister, what are you talking about?"
Mu Zixi saw her expression was indifferent and didn't care much.
The old lady turned her eyes and saw Mu Zixi constantly making troubles and being defeated repeatedly.
She frowned and said in a deep voice, "Girl Xi, please stop clinging to your eldest sister."
Mu Zixi turned to look at the old lady and warned her with a low look.
Then she lowered her eyes quietly and responded obediently, "Grandma, Xi'er just cares about my eldest sister."
"I know your child is a pain in the ass."
The old lady said kindly.
Mu Zixi had no choice but to keep her mouth shut and just looked at the stage quietly, seeming a little absent-minded.
Mu Ziyan raised her eyes and glanced around.
Now, except for the Lan family, Mu family, Zhong family, and Zhang family, all the top ten aristocratic families have performed.
The one who stood out was the second young lady of the Cui family.
She was wearing a plain white long skirt with hibiscus embroidered on the hem.
She was playing the piano and composing poems at the same time.
Her tone was clear and pleasant, and her voice was also very pleasant.
She spoke the seven-character rhyme.
With the word "auspicious" and such talent, many children from aristocratic families present were secretly attracted to him.
The corner of Mu Ziyan's mouth curled up slightly, and she raised her eyes to glance at Zhong Xuan.
She was looking forward to Zhong Xuan's performance.
She was no longer here in her previous life, and Mu Zixi took her place, supporting Mu Hou.
The name of the palace's legitimate daughter stole the show at the palace banquet tonight.
Zhong Xuan was not present either.
Zhong Xuan from her previous life was still in Zhuangzi at this moment.
The same trajectory, but the participants were different.
Mu Ziyan couldn't help but become curious, how did Zhong Xuan win the jackpot?
Mu Zixi was confident, and she waited until Miss Cui Yunran's lingering voice fell, winning the whole house.
Cui Yunran stood up shyly, bowed slightly, and then left the stage.
Next, I saw Zhong Yu holding the pipa Shiran on the stage.
Just as he sat down and was about to play, a scream came out, interrupting Zhong Yu's performance.
"Kill someone" Mu Ziyan quietly put down the wine glass in her hand, with an evil smile on her lips.
The show finally began, but it was a pity that before Zhong Xuan came on stage, she raised her eyes and looked at Zhong Xuan opposite, calm and composed.
There wasn’t much consternation, either.
Without any preparation, Mu Ziyan's eyes flashed with a faint light.
No wonder the time was chosen just right.
She was not prepared, and she could not let Zhong Yu steal her limelight.
That's why when Zhong Yu just came on stage, the crowd in the distance Then he let out a scream.
Naturally, Mu Ziyan didn't take it seriously, but Mu Zixi blushed angrily.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
She had been so sure for so long, why did something happen now?
This scream was full of strength.
It must be that he was frightened.
The emperor was watching with great interest, but was interrupted by the sudden scream.
He looked cold and said in a cold voice, "Go and have a look."
"Yes."
Eunuch Ming, the chief eunuch on the side, bowed his head and responded, then went to check it out in person.
For a moment, the still pleasant atmosphere turned solemn in an instant, and everyone did not dare to express their anger.
Especially Zhong Yu, who was sitting on the stage at the moment, seemed at a loss and didn't know how to deal with himself.
Seeing the gloomy expression on the emperor's face, Concubine Yun turned her eyes and glanced at the nanny behind her.
The nanny quickly handed the twelve princes in her arms to her.
Concubine Yun then teased the twelve princes, "Your Majesty, look, Rui My son is laughing."
When the emperor heard this, the gloomy look on his face dissipated a little.
He turned to look at Jun Qianrui in Concubine Yun's arms, and saw him smiling brightly at him, as if it was the purest smile in the world.
Most of the anger in the emperor's heart disappeared now, and he raised his hand to hold Jun Qianrui in his arms.
Just as he was about to take it, he saw Eunuch Ming walking over with his head lowered, "Your Majesty, the eldest lady of the Zhang family has been hanged.
Plum Garden.”
"What?"
The emperor's hands still maintained the posture of holding Jun Qianrui, but they paused for a moment, and then slowly put them away, "Zhang Aiqing, go and take a look."
"Yes."
Zhang Zong, who was sitting at the table, stood up immediately after hearing this, turned around and went to Meiyuan.
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Mu Ziyan's mouth, and she raised her eyes to see Zhong Xuan looking at her with a smile.
Qi Xuan and Mu Lingxuan also laid their eyes on Mu Ziyan.
They both remembered that Mu Ziyan went in the direction of Meiyuan after leaving the table.
Mu Ziyan looked into the caring eyes of Qi Xuan and Mu Lingxuan, and nodded slightly at them, seeming to reassure them.
Mu Zixi sat aside and thought about whether Zhang Yirong would have died long ago.
It was really unlucky to be reincarnated at this time.
Mu Zilan lowered his eyes and said nothing, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.
It was not easy to attend such a palace banquet.
At this time, he couldn't stand out, but he couldn't live up to his words.
For a moment, everyone had their own thoughts, and the Chuxiu Pavilion became silent, not even a slight breath was heard.
Leng Hanfeng looked at Mu Ziyan across from her and saw that she was sitting calmly and calmly.
There was nothing wrong with her.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, obviously not knowing what happened to Zhang Yirong.
After a while, when Zhang Zong came back, the emperor said in a deep voice, "But what was found?"
"Back to the emperor, Miss Zhang was strangled to death and hung from a tree branch."
As soon as Zhang Zong said this, everyone gasped.
Who is so bold and dares to commit murder in the palace, and so blatantly?
"Investigation, this matter must be investigated to get to the bottom of it."
Emperor Long Yan was furious, slapped the case and shouted in a deep voice.
Before the emperor got angry, Concubine Yun had already asked her nanny to hold the twelfth prince and take a few steps back.
Therefore, she did not scare the twelfth prince.
If the twelve princes started to cry at this time, it would be trouble.
Mu Ziyan looked at Concubine Yun's actions and secretly sighed at Concubine Yun's agility.
Sure enough, such a woman was undoubtedly Concubine Hui's strongest opponent in the harem.

"Your Majesty, I believe that the murderer must be at this dinner party.
I would like to ask His Majesty's ministers to question them one by one."
Zhang Zong raised his voice and requested the order.
The emperor was naturally happy, so he responded, "In that case, I will question them one by one."
"Yes."
Zhang Zong responded, turned around and mobilized his personnel.
Mu Ziyan couldn't help but smile when she saw that Zhang Zong always treated murder cases with high spirits.
At this time, someone suddenly said, "I don't know, Mr.
Zhang, can you ask someone to do an autopsy?"
After Mrs.
Zhang Hou learned that Zhang Yirong had been killed, she immediately fainted, and Mr.
Zhang Hou also looked heavy, but now he is wondering if there is any conspiracy behind this.
Mu Ziyan saw someone asking questions at this moment, and the people who were in a mess also turned their attention to her.
Cui Yunran Mu Ziyan looked at Cui Yunran and saw that she had always been cold and arrogant, and now she was focusing on Zhang Zong.
Zhang Zong said in a low voice, "Of course, but autopsies are always rigorous.
What I am doing is just a preliminary judgment.
If you want more details, I will ask the widow to come."
"My daughter heard that there was a female widow in the Jingzhao Yin Mansion.
After her autopsy, we can basically identify the murderer."
Cui Yunran said calmly.
Mu Ziyan looked at Cui Yunran, the smile on her lips getting deeper and deeper, and then looked at Zhang Zong, and saw that his face was gloomy.
It was obvious that Zhang Zong didn't like others mentioning Lady Lu at this time.
"Exactly."
Zhang Zong replied in a low voice, "I have already reported this matter to the court, and she has also obtained the document."
"My little girl knows it, but now that the eldest daughter of the Zhang family died in such a tragic way, and Mr.
Zhang only did a preliminary autopsy, how can we conclude that the murderer is among us?"
Cui Yunran's words undoubtedly caused thousands of waves.
Now everyone began to whisper, obviously quite dissatisfied, but due to the emperor's presence, they naturally pointed the finger at Zhang Zong.
Zhang Zong, however, did not change his expression, "Miss Cui Er, when I handle the case, I must be reasonable and well-founded."
"In this case, even if Mr.
Zhang wants to investigate the person, he must convince the little girl."
Cui Yunran said without being humble or arrogant.
Cui Yunran's performance just now was undoubtedly stunning.
Now that she dared to face the iron-faced judge Zhang Zong, everyone couldn't help but feel a little more favorable towards Cui Yunran.
Especially those children from aristocratic families, the way they looked at Cui Yunran at this moment was quite wonderful.
Mu Ziyan saw that Zhang Zong was about to suffer a loss.
From a distance, he saw someone coming to report.
Zhang Zong turned around and saluted respectfully, "Your Majesty, I have called you to come.
If any of you here have any doubts, please You can go to Meiyuan with me."
"In that case, then come with me."
The emperor knew Madam Lu, but had never seen her perform an autopsy, so he went there in person now.
Mu Ziyan stood up along with everyone else, and the group followed the emperor with their heads down, and walked through the corridor into the plum garden.
At this time, Zhang Yirong's body had been put down and was lying on the ground.
The emperor stood still and then sat on the dragon chair, while the others stood behind him.
When Zhang Zong saw Madam Lu coming with her head lowered, he first saluted the emperor and said, "The daughter of the people comes to see the emperor."
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
"You are Madam Lu."
The emperor looked at Madam Lu and saw that her face was cold and her appearance was not of high quality, but she also had a unique charm.
"That's right the daughter of the people."
Madam Lu responded in a low voice.
Although she had obtained the documents and could do the autopsy, because she was a woman and did not hold any official position, she was not a minister.
"Fair body."
The emperor had no intention of admiring the beauty now, because there was a dead man lying not far away.
Concubine Yun would not let the Twelve Princes be contaminated with such filthy atmosphere, so she immediately ordered her grandma to carry the Twelve Princes back to the palace.
Concubine Yun was sitting next to the emperor at the moment, "Your Majesty, Miss Zhang is really dead."
The emperor turned to look at Concubine Yun, her eyes filled with tears.
Compared to Mu Zixi's delicate and artificial weakness, Concubine Yun's was natural.
"Don't worry, my beloved concubine."
The emperor comforted softly.
Obviously, these words had a deeper meaning.
Today, this person was congratulating the twelfth prince, but he lost his life.
If this matter was maliciously expanded, the twelve princes would be killed.
The prince will definitely be said to be an ominous person, auspicious and auspicious.
Without auspiciousness, where would there be?
But the emperor's few words gave Concubine Yun reassurance.
Everyone present heard what she said, and they were all thoughtful people.
How could they not understand the meaning of the emperor's words?
They couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, the emperor really loved Concubine Yun to the extreme.
Concubine Yun felt relieved, and her eyes filled with tears of emotion, but she held back the tears.
The emperor looked at her with more and more pity, and held her slender, boneless hands tightly.
Mu Ziyan had finally seen how powerful Concubine Yun was.
She had never met Concubine Yun in her previous life, and she had only heard rumors.
As expected, fame was not as good as meeting her.
Concubine Yun's methods were indeed brilliant.
Mu Zixi stood beside Mu Ziyan, like a plaster that couldn't be shaken off.
At this moment, she hated Zhang Yirong in her heart.
Not only had she ruined her own arm, but she had also ruined her bright future tonight.
She is confident that if she performs today, she will be able to win the applause of the whole house.
If she wins the eyes of the Queen Mother, who will dare to look down on her in the future?
But all the plans have been disturbed by Zhang Yirong.
Now she can't wait to kill Zhang Yirong.
Cut into pieces.
Mu Ziyan felt her suppressed anger, but he just smiled lightly and didn't care too much.
After Mrs.
Lu thanked her and stood up, she turned around and walked to Zhang Yirong's body.
She squatted down and inspected it carefully.
After the autopsy, she immediately stood up and said, "Your Majesty, Miss Zhang died half an hour ago, between the third quarter of You hour and the quarter of Xu hour." between."
"Ms.
Zhang was abused during her lifetime.
Her left cheek was bruised and she had many scars on her body.
The direct cause of her death was that she was strangled by this silk scarf and suffocated to death."

Mrs.
Lu said as she wrapped the silk around Zhang Yirong's neck.
The towel was brought up.
The emperor looked at it from a distance, and then said, "But the footprints of the murderer can be found."
"This person should be an acquaintance, and he has a close relationship with Miss Zhang."
Mrs.
Lu continued, "There are half of the footprints under the tree.
I think this is not the scene of the first crime, but after someone strangled Miss Zhang to death.
Hanged in the plum garden, this person has good Qinggong."
When the emperor heard this, his expression suddenly darkened, "According to what you said, someone deliberately hung Miss Zhang here."
"Yes."
Mrs.
Lu responded, "The folk girl just said that Miss Zhang had been abused in her life, and she also had sexual intercourse with others."
As soon as these words came out, Mr.
Zhang's expression was quite embarrassing.
A young lady from aristocratic family would not cherish her own reputation, not to mention that she was from the Zhang Hou Mansion.
However, Zhang Yirong was only less than eleven years old.
How could she do such a thing?
Coming This puzzled Mr.
Zhang, and others were also quite puzzled.
Mu Ziyan's mouth twitched obviously a few times as he listened to Madam Lu's judgment.
Who could do such a thing that is worse than a beast?
This chapter of Yirong has not yet fully developed.
At the age of ten, she is still a child in that world.
To be able to do such a thing, unless that person is a pedophile She really couldn't imagine that in her previous life, she had been married to Leng Hanfeng for fourteen years.
That was because she had such a concept since she was a child, so she didn't feel any discomfort.
However, after a thousand years, she actually accepted it now.
No.
Mu Ziyan thought like this, then raised her eyes and looked at Zhong Xuan, thinking that she was about to get pregnant and was already hooking up with Leng Hanfeng.
Would the two of them have sex without a matchmaker?
If so, then Zhong Xuan could be said to be physically and mentally strong, and could actually Acceptable But she was just complaining secretly.
If Zhong Xuan knew that she missed him so much, he would probably vomit blood.
Mu Ziyan and Zhong Xuan were enemies from birth.
She was completely defeated in her previous life, but in this life, she believed that she would never lose to Zhong Xuan again, and she would make Zhong Xuan bear the pain and suffering she had suffered over the past thousand years. despair.
Everyone looked at each other in shock when they heard this, especially the ladies from aristocratic families.
They were already blushing with embarrassment.
They were holding their silk handkerchiefs to cover their pretty faces and did not dare to look up.
Madam Lu's words obviously had profound meaning.
To be able to do such a thing, and at that time, she must be familiar with Zhang Yirong.
However, at this time, Mu Zixi changed her mind again.
According to the time Madam Lu mentioned, she suddenly said in surprise, "Sister, did you meet any of your cousins at that time?
Do you remember that time?"
Just about to leave."
Mu Zixi's words once again attracted everyone's attention.
At this moment, their eyes fell on Mu Ziyan again.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Mu Ziyan smiled lowly and said, "Second sister, I was indeed not at the table at that time.
I just left for a while and then came back.
Where can I meet sister Yirong?"
"Since everyone was at the table at that time, and only Miss Mu Da left the table, it is a coincidence."
Cui Yunran said again at this moment, and everyone stared at Mu Ziyan, as if they had determined that she was accomplice.
Mu Ziyan did not panic at all, and then said, "Ms.
Lu just said that Sister Yirong was in a good relationship with others before she died, so she wanted to find a private place.
I was just walking around casually, how could I still...
If I really encounter their good deeds, how can I stand here intact now?
That person has martial arts, and I am just a weak woman with no strength. " Cui Yunran whispered, "You and Miss Zhang have always been at odds with each other, and when Miss Zhang's accident happened, you happened to leave the meeting.
Isn't this suspicious?"
Mu Ziyan saw that Cui Yunran had always grasped the key point, that is, she was indeed not present when Zhang Yirong died.
Therefore, even if she was not the real culprit, she could not escape the involvement.
Everyone thought for a moment and quickly agreed, "Miss Cui Er is right."
Zhang Zong saw that everyone was now pointing their fingers at Mu Ziyan.
He looked at Mu Ziyan and saw that her expression was calm, without any fear or panic.
He knew that Mu Ziyan would not do such a thing.
Come to think of it, if she really wanted to kill someone, she wouldn't do it so deliberately, or maybe she would be stupid.
Qi Xuan was about to step forward to defend, but when he saw the look Mu Ziyan gave him, he immediately stood there silently.
When the emperor saw that everyone was talking about the gold, his face darkened, "Miss Mu, how do you explain this matter?"
Mu Ziyan immediately saluted respectfully, "Your Majesty, although I have always been at odds with my cousin Yirong, I don't have murderous intentions.
Moreover, today is a special day.
Even if I have no brains, I will not You wouldn't do such a blind thing, let alone leave a clue."
Mu Ziyan said lightly, which sounded like an excuse, but in fact it was an insinuation that these hecklers were blind.
When everyone came to their senses, Mu Ziyan continued to argue, "Even if I say that my daughter has The motive for the murder, then, is to find the murderer.
Who could the murderer be?
At that time, I was not the only one who left the table
.
"
Mu Ziyan raised her eyes and scanned everyone's expressions coldly, remembering the footsteps she heard when she came back from the trail, and then her eyes fell on Leng Hanfeng.
When Leng Hanfeng saw Mu Ziyan looking at him, he felt inexplicably happy in his heart, but there was no hint of joy on his face and he just let her look at him calmly.
She already had a plan in her mind, and then said, "Since sister Yirong secretly communicates with others, this person must be among you.
Do you remember who left the table at that time?"
Zhang Zong saw Mu Ziyan put aside the words and quickly responded, "Your Majesty, this matter is related to the dignity of the royal family.
Someone dared to commit murder tonight, and even hung Miss Zhang's body in the plum garden.
He really had ulterior motives. , I ask your Majesty’s permission to interrogate them one by one.”
When the emperor heard what Zhang Zong said, his eyes were cold and his face was condensed, "With me here, whoever dares to say another word will be the murderer and be executed immediately."
"Yes."
Zhang Zong responded quickly, then raised his eyes and focused on Cui Yunran.
Cui Yunran showed no fear, and faced him calmly, then turned his eyes to look at Mu Ziyan meaningfully.
Mu Ziyan saw that Cui Yunran was fighting with her tonight, and knew that she had a very good relationship with Mu Zijing, and Mrs.
Cui was also very good to her.
Presumably, she was taking the place of Ms.
Cui who died and was in the family temple.
Mu Zijing was venting her anger.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Mu Lingxuan turned around and looked at Mu Lingrui beside him.
He seemed to have thought of something and his eyes darkened.
At this time, he still had to worry about the face of the Muhou Mansion.
He raised his eyes to look at Mu Ziyan.
Mu Ziyan obviously understood the meaning of Mu Lingxuan's lowered eyes.
She raised her eyes and stared at Mu Lingrui for a long time, then turned to look at the old lady beside her, and then looked at Ming Ming, who was not far away and had been unusually quiet from beginning to end.
Princess An.
At this moment, Princess Ming'an saw someone looking at her, and she met the eyes.
When she saw who it was, a smile with unknown meaning appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Mu Ziyan narrowed her eyes slightly and then looked away.
It seemed that she had overlooked something.
Madam Lu turned around and checked again, and then found clues on the edge of Zhang Yirong's skirt.
"What is this?"
Madam Lu put a white bead-like thing on the hem of her skirt in her palm, and then looked at Zhang Zong.
Zhang Zong looked carefully and saw the palace maid standing behind him stepping forward, "These are insects that grow on the lotus leaves by the lotus pond.
They only appear in these few days."
"Lotus Pond" Zhang Zong was stunned for a moment, and then led the people to the lotus pond.
At this time, everyone's eyes fell on Mu Ziyan again.
Cui Yunran sneered and said, "The strange things tonight seem to be related to Miss Mu Da.
When the lotus pond fell into the water, Miss Mu Da seemed to be present."
Mu Ziyan chuckled, not only was she present, she was also a participant.
At this time, Su Qinrou couldn't help it anymore and looked up at Cui Yunran angrily, "Cui Yunran, I was also there at that time, do you think I am also suspected?"
"Yes, I was there too."
Hou Yiyi also echoed.
Cui Yunran looked at the two of them, "The world is really going downhill.
Aren't you two at odds with Miss Mu Da?
Why are you so good today?
Miss Mu Da's method of winning over people is really excellent."
This insinuation aroused everyone's suspicion.
People, once their own interests are involved, they always want to put themselves aside.
Naturally, they will extend a lot of what they think they think in one sentence.
The truth comes.
Could it be that the lotus pond where she slipped and fell into the water was a deliberate trick played by Miss Muta to win over people's hearts?
Of course Hou Yiyi and Su Qinrou knew the truth of the matter.
Now hearing what Cui Yunran said, Su Qinrou was so angry that she said, "Don't talk nonsense.
Everyone knows what kind of person Sister Mu is, but they just don't know.
How come you, Miss Cui, are biting Sister Mu?
I remember that when we entered the palace today, you and Miss Zhang had a quarrel
.
"
Su Qinrou snorted disdainfully, "Miss Cui, second, you are also suspected of murder."
"You" Cui Yunran glared at Su Qinrou, and then sneered, "I'm just discussing the matter."
"Your Majesty, Sister Su is outspoken.
I hope Your Majesty will not blame you."
Mu Ziyan turned around and saw that the Emperor's face was getting colder.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
She saluted quickly and said.
When Su Qinrou heard this, she knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, my maiden" "She is really a young lady from a noble family."
The emperor said coldly, with a strong warning in his words.
When Lord Cui and Lord Su heard this, they knelt down quickly and said, "It doesn't matter if I teach my daughter."
Now everyone hurriedly knelt down and did not dare to make a sound.
"Okay, let's all be safe."
The emperor said solemnly.
What happened tonight must be brought to light.
Otherwise, if the matter is exaggerated, it will be extremely detrimental to the Twelve Princes.
Mu Ziyan stood up with everyone and saw Zhang Zong and Madam Lu rushing back.
Madam Lu also saluted respectfully, "Your Majesty, next to the lotus pond is the scene of the murder that killed Miss Zhang."
"What can we find?"
the emperor said solemnly.
"I found this."
Lady Lu presented a token in her hand.
Eunuch Ming stepped forward to take it.
After carefully identifying it, he whispered, "Your Majesty, this is the token of the Royal Forest Army."
"Forest Guards."
The Emperor's eyes turned cold, and then he said, "Bring the people up."
"Yes."
Eunuch Ming took the token and went to get the person.
Mu Ziyan looked at Madam Lu, thinking how could there be a token next to the lotus pond?
It was too obvious.
She then looked at everyone's expressions again, and finally focused on Princess Ming'an and Mu Ling.
Rui's body.
She had a bad feeling, fearing that she had something to do with it.
As expected, after a while, Eunuch Ming took the man over and said, "Your Majesty, he is about to escape from the palace."
"Why don't you recruit them from the ground up?"
the emperor said sternly.
The man kneeling on the ground looked slumped, his head lowered and he didn't dare to look up, but he didn't say a word.
The emperor was furious, and then shouted angrily, "Say."
"Go back to the emperor, I'm humble."
The man was intimidated by the emperor's aura, his arms shook, and he raised his eyes to land on Mu Ziyan.
Mu Ziyan knew clearly that it was indeed the case.
She suppressed the doubts in her heart and met the man's gaze calmly.
The man quickly looked away, then remained silent.
The emperor saw the exchange of looks between Mu Ziyan and the person kneeling on the ground.
He immediately turned to look at Mu Ziyan and said, "Do you know this person?"
"Back to the Emperor, I don't know you."
Mu Ziyan replied calmly, without any hint of panic or guilt.
"Do you know her?"
the emperor turned to the person kneeling on the ground and asked.
"Your Majesty, Miss Zhang was killed because of her humble position and had nothing to do with Miss Mu Da."
The man said immediately, but this statement undoubtedly meant that there was no three hundred taels of silver in this place.
This is not showing concern, it is clearly telling everyone that Zhang Yirong's death was caused by Mu Ziyan.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Mu Ziyan's mouth, and he looked directly at the person kneeling on the ground, "You are right, it really has nothing to do with me."
The emperor saw that Mu Ziyan was not at all panicked at this time.
He narrowed his eyes slightly.
He was only ten years old, but it was not easy for him to be able to be so calm in the face of danger.
Concubine Yun also looked at Mu Ziyan, then turned to look at the person kneeling on the ground, "Why did you kill Miss Zhang?"
"I have nothing to say for my humble position."
The man looked like he was going to die.
Qi Xuan saw that Mu Ziyan was still so calm at this time, but he was extremely anxious.
Turning to look at Mu Lingxuan, the two of them looked at each other and were about to step forward to defend together, but Mu Ziyan said first, "Your Majesty, since he has nothing to say, can you allow me to say a few words?"
The emperor looked at Mu Ziyan and nodded slightly, "You really have nothing to say."
"Miss Mu."
The man raised his eyes to look at Mu Ziyan, his eyes flashing with unbearable affection.
Mu Ziyan chuckled and said, "If you really have nothing to say, why do you admit to killing Miss Zhang?"
"Miss Mu, I really have nothing to say for my humble position."
The man seemed to have gotten the hint.
He suddenly pulled out a dagger from his arms and thrust it into his chest.
Mu Ziyan narrowed her eyes slightly, stood in front of him first, and snatched the dagger away with her hands, "You are so dead, you are just trying to drag me into the water."
"Miss Mu, how dare you humble your position?"
The man stared at her affectionately.
"Even if your humble position is shattered into pieces, I will never dare to hurt Miss Mu at all."
But everyone heard a different taste.
Cui Yunran said in a low voice, "It's great that you have such deep love that you don't regret it."
Mu Ziyan glanced sideways at Cui Yunran, with an evil smile on her lips.
With a move of her wrist, the dagger in her hand went straight towards Cui Yunran.
Cui Yunran really didn't expect it and had not yet reacted.
Then she watched the dagger stab her half-open mouth.
Fortunately, the girl on the side had quick eyesight and quick hands to pull her over, but when the dagger was in front of her, it clattered to the ground.
Mu Ziyan sighed sadly, "The strength is too weak."
Cui Yunran stared at the dagger that fell at his feet, shocked.
When he came to his senses, he glared at Mu Ziyan and sneered coldly, "Miss Mu is so angry that she is so embarrassed."
Mu Ziyan chuckled and said, "Second Miss Cui is too noisy."
Cui Yunran's eyes widened with anger, but she choked.
Cui Houye coughed a few times, and she turned her head reluctantly.
Mu Ziyan looked at the person kneeling on the ground, "If you don't say it, I will."
She stared at the person in front of her, and then took the token from Eunuch Ming's hand, "Wang Xian, you are so reluctant to talk, just to make everyone think that you and I have an affair.
I guess there must be something on you."
What is the token between me and you?
The silk handkerchief and jade pendant sachet or the one beside it?"
The man was obviously startled, and then whispered, "Miss Mu, I don't know how to say anything because of my humble position."
Mu Ziyan smiled lowly and said, "Okay, let's not talk about how you and I met.
Let's talk about what happened tonight.
Sister Yirong and I have never been on good terms.
I suddenly left the banquet in the middle of the banquet.
I think I made an appointment with you.
I went to the place where we had a secret meeting, and then I went there secretly.

When you and I were having a deep affection, we happened to be met by sister Yirong who was following us secretly.
I was worried that the matter would be exposed, so I ordered you to kill sister Yirong.
Yes, but so” "Miss Mu, what are you doing?"
The man raised his eyes and looked at her with regret.
Mu Ziyan chuckled and said, "I asked you to kill someone, but you ruined sister Yirong's innocence, and then strangled her to death and hung her on a branch in the plum garden.
Your affection for me is really serious.
Love is as deep as the sea.”
"Pfft" Su Qinrou couldn't help but laugh out loud.
She raised her eyes and looked at Mu Ziyan with admiration on her face.
Qi Xuan and Mu Lingxuan had a faint smile on their lips, their eyes full of doting.
Qi Xue'er and Qi Yu'er were so frightened just now that their faces turned pale.
They wanted to go to defend Mu Ziyan, but were stopped by their brother.
They were already anxious, but now they felt relieved after listening to Mu Ziyan's analysis. .
Mu Ziyan's remarks could be described as affectionate and the wording made people laugh.
She was able to clear away the suspicion in such an understatement, but she did not intend to let it go.
She lowered her eyes and looked at the man, "Since you are so affectionate to me, why did you do such an evil thing to sister Yirong?"
"This is a humble position."
The man was immediately speechless.
Mu Ziyan raised her eyes and looked at Eunuch Ming, "Can I ask Eunuch Ming to search you?"
Eunuch Ming turned to look at the emperor.
When he saw the emperor lowering his eyes, he ordered someone to search Wang Xian who was kneeling on the ground.
Sure enough, he found a sachet in his sleeve.
Mu Ziyan looked at the sachet and found it very familiar.
She raised her hand to take it and turned to look at Yun Xiang behind her.
"You are always in charge of my belongings.
Do you recognize this sachet?"
"Miss, this sachet is not yours."
Yunxiang whispered, "It belongs to this slave."
"Oh."
Mu Ziyan turned to look at Yunxiang, "Why is this sachet on his body?"
"I don't know, this slave doesn't like to lose it."
Yunxiang lowered her eyes and said.
Mu Ziyan smiled lowly and turned to look at the man, "I have a personal relationship with you, so I won't be stingy with you.
How can I give you a sachet for a girl?"
When she said these words, she was undoubtedly a slap in the face of the person who was trying to harm her.
Even if she wanted to have a secret affair with someone, as the eldest lady of the Muhou Mansion, she would give something in style to her lover.
How could she give one to her lover?
What about the sachets that even girls don’t like?
"How can you prove that this sachet is yours?"
Cui Yunran said again.
"Every slave's sachet will have the word "Yun" embroidered at the end of the inner layer."
Yunxiang thought to herself, how could her sachet appear in the palace?
The person who can get the sachet must be someone from the Muhou Mansion.
Then who could it be?
She was secretly upset that she was the one who harmed the eldest lady because of her carelessness.

Yun Xiang said as she opened the inner layer of the sachet.
Sure enough, there was a very small word "Yun" embroidered on it.
Cui Yunran had nothing to say now.
Su Qinrou raised her head and snorted coldly, then looked at Wang Xian who was kneeling on the ground, "Let me see Sister Mu's lover."
Mu Ziyan saw that Su Qinrou was coming to help, so she was happy to do so, so she immediately stepped aside and allowed Su Qinrou to step forward and take a look.
"As for the appearance, I can barely see it.
Sister Mu, your vision is really unique.
If you like this, I will have someone to send it to you."
Su Qinrou stepped forward and said with a smile.
"Tell me about it."
Mu Ziyan didn't care, and asked with interest.
