Qiu Tianshu? There was no more chance.

When Mu Xiaofeng really stood in front of Qiu Tianshu alive, Qiu Tianshu was really surprised, oh no, it should be said that he was ecstatic and was about to go crazy.

"Are you alright? Are you really okay? That's great! Qiu Tianshu looked at her, so excited that he danced with his hands and feet, and he had nowhere to put his hands and feet. I wanted to reach out to help her thin shoulders feel her reality, but when it touched her bright and calm eyes, he quickly shrank back.

Mu Xiaofeng suppressed the displeasure in his heart, and said lightly, "Thank you for your concern, but now that the house is messy, I won't invite you in to sit." ”

After speaking, Mu Xiaofeng was about to turn around and go in.

Unexpectedly, Qiu Tianshu stepped in front of her and stopped her, and suddenly said quickly and urgently, "Xiaofeng, I know that the previous thing was that I was sorry for you, you...... I also know about you, don't worry, if you want, I will treat you well in the future and never let others bully you. ”

Mu Xiaofeng raised his eyebrows and looked at him inexplicably, "Young Master Qiu, are you okay?" ”

She understood every word he said. But she didn't understand half of the meaning.

What does it mean for her to be willing? Will he treat her well? And never let anyone else bully her?

He stopped in front and couldn't move forward, so she retreated, and said with a puzzled and resolute face, "I remember that I and Qiu Gongzi had already dissolved their marriage a long, long time ago. ”

"Xiaofeng," Qiu Tianshu wanted to reach out to pull her, but she avoided her unceremoniously, and he said incoherently, "I know that I am wrong about the divorce, and you should be annoyed." But after so long, you didn't talk about marriage again, and then you ...... right, I know that you actually care about me in your heart, right? ”

Mu Xiaofeng looked at him in amazement, and then a thin layer of anger surged up on his face. I really don't understand what kind of logic Qiu Tianshu is, whether she marries or not has anything to do with whether she cares about him in her heart?

"Qiu Gongzi, please respect yourself, don't call me by my maiden name anymore, I don't know you well!" The girl's face was angry, and even her voice cooled down, "Also, I don't know what you misunderstood, but it doesn't matter. I'm here today, and I'll tell you again clearly and solemnly, I, Mu Xiaofeng, definitely don't care about you in my heart. ”

"Now, please get out of the way, Mr. Qiu, I'm going to go in and deal with the aftermath."

Qiu Tianshu was intimidated by the cold momentum in her eyes, and actually subconsciously obediently turned sideways and gave way.

When he let him, Mu Xiaofeng immediately strode over without hesitation, and walked in without looking back.

After a while, he didn't come back to his senses until the girl's dazzling figure faded out of sight.

But he looked at her back, his eyes were confused and confused, and he still didn't want to believe and muttered to himself, "Why don't you care about me?" The things you do clearly show that you care...... you say this, you must still be angry in your heart, it must be like this. ”

But he thought about it, even if she was angry again, there would always be a day when her anger would disappear.

It's a pity that the fact that she is suffering from a hidden disease has been spread, and now even if he wants the famous media to marry her, his parents will not agree to .......

However, no matter who puts this matter aside, no one can really marry a woman who can't have children and go back to be the main house.

I believe that in time, she will understand his painstaking efforts.

Qiu Tianshu clenched his fists with confidence, and suddenly remembered the scene he had seen in the tavern last night.

Originally, after waking up today, he suddenly heard that the Mu Mansion was almost destroyed last night, and he subconsciously thought that she was the first to have an accident.

Because when he thinks of her, he always unexpectedly remembers the scene he once ran into in the back alley of Sheng Ji Fabric Store.

The scene of the tragic death of Miss Zhou...... No matter how many times he was drunk and dreamed of death, it was still vivid in his mind.

But the murderer's background is too strong, and he can't reveal the truth no matter what.

If he dared to leak a trace of rumors, I am afraid that he would have become a pile of bones by now.

Fortunately, God has eyes, and the murderer has not ended up well.

Qiu Tianshu thought like this, his heart suddenly moved, and he inexplicably remembered Mu Xiaofeng's face that looked soft and delicate, but always showed confidence and pride intentionally or unintentionally.

A terrifying thought suddenly flashed in his mind, could the eldest princess be disabled, could it have something to do with her?

He remembered that she was also present at the hunting meeting, and that she had entered the hunting area with Princess Celestia .......

Thinking about it, he looked into the already scorched Mufu, and a kind of excitement suddenly appeared in his heart that he didn't understand.

If it is said that the fact that the Mufu Mansion was almost completely destroyed shocked the whole capital, then in the Jinluan Palace, Chu Lige was angry with the corpse, which can become the most talked-about topic in Southern Chu.

Chu Lige was on the Jinluan Palace, and Emperor Chu personally promised to investigate this matter thoroughly.

Therefore, the follow-up progress was very rapid, and it took less than two days for Xia Xingshen, who was ordered to personally track down the whereabouts of the murderer, to find the vicious black-clothed people in an abandoned house.

However, surprisingly, when Xia Xingshen led people to track down the house, those black-clothed people all died of anger one by one.

In the inn called Homeinn, Xia Xingshen met Mu Xiaofeng.

"It's a pity that I went a step too late." Xia Xing Shen Junjun's face was still smiling slightly, but under those beautiful and charming eyes, there was a bit of regret and a bit of sadness, "I only found out, it was a sect on the rivers and lakes that specializes in killing people and buying and selling, and the people behind the scenes ......"

Mu Xiaofeng walked to the window and stood, looking at an evergreen pine and cypress in the neat and tidy courtyard below, "Actually, who is the person behind the scenes, I believe that he also knows it in his heart, isn't it?" ”

She looked back with a smile, although it was a rhetorical question, but the affirmative answer was already in it.

The poison in those people is extremely rare, and it is only found in that place.

Xia Xingshen looked at her smiling face, and suddenly felt unspeakably uncomfortable in her heart. After Meizhuang's accident, he secretly told himself that he would not leave when she needed it in the future.

But the night before yesterday, he didn't leave, but he didn't show up for her in time when she needed it most.

He stared at her, with shallow pity hidden in his eyes, his eyes slightly apologetic, and said softly, "Xiaofeng, I'm sorry." ”

The girl looked up in surprise, looked at his clear face in confusion, and smiled with relief, "It's none of your business, you don't have to apologize to me." ”

Xia Xingshen just smiled slightly and didn't explain.

There are some things that you should know in your heart.

Although Mufu was almost wiped out, it ended with all the murderers being poisoned and dying, and the clue was broken. But after Xia Xingshen presented the notes of the drug test and the rest of the obscure images to Emperor Chu, Emperor Chu actually had a guess in his heart about the real culprit behind this matter.

He gently knocked on the precious Nanmu imperial case in the imperial study, and said thoughtfully, "It seems that that kid also knows it in his heart." ”

It's just that he can't catch substantive evidence, so he wants to extort benefits from him to the greatest extent at the beginning.

While muttering to himself, he pinched his eyebrows, and the complex color in his eyes became even stronger.

It's okay if you don't worry, let's see if that girl is worth .......

Although the real culprit behind the scenes has not been found, the officials in charge of defense at all levels in the capital have caused turmoil because of this incident.

The degraded officials were demoted, the transferred were transferred, and then almost all the positions in the important city defense of the capital were replaced by people whom Emperor Chu believed in.

Really speaking, Emperor Chu is the biggest winner in this matter.

On the surface, no one knew who was the murderer who spent money to hire a murderer from the rivers and lakes to destroy Mufu Manmen, but the queen saw that Emperor Chu replaced all the important entrances and exits of the capital with strong and justified reasons that were irrefutable, so she couldn't help but catch Princess Yuanning and reprimand her fiercely.

And on the grounds that Princess Yuanning broke a set of her beloved porcelain, she was strictly ordered to imprison Princess Yuanning in the Qunfang Palace.

A month later, Princess Yuanning finally regained her freedom and was free to enter and leave the Qunfang Palace at will.

Taking advantage of the fact that the lotus flowering period has not passed, she can't wait to beg the queen to allow her to hold a lotus appreciation banquet in the royal palace.

Banquets like this are held every year, and the queen has always been used to ignoring Princess Yuanning. There is only the lowest and only requirement for her, that is, it doesn't matter if Princess Yuanning gets into trouble, but if she gets into trouble, she has to bear the consequences.

As long as she doesn't leave a mess for her to clean up, she doesn't bother to care about anything.

Princess Yuanning got her consent, and immediately like a bird out of the cage, she was extremely happy to ask the palace people to help her prepare a post to invite the ladies of various provinces to participate in the lotus banquet.

Mu Xiaofeng's family has now moved out of the inn and lived in the big mansion of the former Guogong Mansion now renamed Mu Mansion.

Her yard is still called by its previous name, except for the name, the rest of the layout and even the flowers and trees transplanted in the yard are also the same as the previous maple grove residence.

At this moment, Red Shadow was holding the invitation sticker issued by Princess Yuanning and came to the octagonal pavilion.

"Miss, this is a post from Princess Yuanning, inviting Miss to participate in the lotus appreciation banquet held in the royal palace in three days."

Mu Xiaofeng didn't look up, his eyes were still staring at the book in his hand, and he asked with little interest, "Is the post stamped with the queen's seal?" ”

Her words sounded like questions, but in fact, her tone was 100% affirmative.

Hongying was not surprised at all, and wanted to know that Princess Yuanning must have bad intentions when she sent such a post. If Miss is not allowed to refuse, she will naturally have to play a trick to launch the queen mother to suppress the formation.

"Yes, miss."

After Hongying finished speaking, she intimately opened the post and handed it to her, so that Mu Xiaofeng could see the content on it at a glance.

Mu Xiaofeng swept away disappreciably, and there was a faint glow that was incomprehensible under the flickering of his eyes, "Since you can't shirk, let's prepare first." ”

In the world, there are many people who want her life, but so far, she is still alive and well.

Princess Yuanning's debts, she will recover them sooner or later.

Three days later, Mu Xiaofeng took Leng Yue in a carriage and set off for the royal palace on the outskirts of the city.

However, according to the royal rules, only Mu Xiaofeng could enter the courtyard at that time, and Leng Yue could only wait for the banquet to disperse by guarding the carriage outside.

When Mu Xiaofeng arrived, he didn't see the girls in the other mansions, let alone the master, Princess Yuanning.

However, as soon as she got out of the carriage, she saw two arrogant palace maids walking out of the courtyard, and they stood outside the door and blessed her, "The slave maid has seen Miss Muda." ”

Mu Xiaofeng glanced at them lightly at the foot of the stone steps, nodded slightly, and did not speak.

The etiquette of these two palace ladies is meticulous, and people can't find a trace of fault in the horizontal and vertical picking. It was the proud look in their eyebrows that made Mu Xiaofeng feel uncomfortable when he looked at it.

There is really what kind of master there is, what kind of slave.

Seeing that her demeanor was calm, neither humble nor arrogant, the two palace maids rolled their eyes, and one of them said, "Please Miss Mu enter with the slaves." ”

Mu Xiaofeng looked at the simple horizontal plaque in front of him that completely abandoned the solemn and heavy style unique to the royal family, suppressed his surprise and nodded, and followed them towards the courtyard.

After Mu Xiaofeng entered, the two doors that retained the log style slowly closed again.

Leng Yue stayed in the carriage, staring at the two gates with slight apprehension in her heart. I don't know what kind of traps are waiting for Miss in the other courtyard.

Mu Xiaofeng also guessed this question in her heart, but she didn't worry too much about her safety. She had been able to overcome so many storms before, and she believed that this time this small royal palace would not be able to trap her either.

Calm and composedness is the most basic and best way to deal with a crisis.

After the two palace maids introduced her into the inner courtyard, they let go of their bodies and stood on both sides, and one of them pointed to an open space in the courtyard and said, "Miss Mu, please go directly into this courtyard." ”

Mu Xiaofeng lowered her eyes and stared at the place she was pointing, only to see the shape of the gossip diagram laid out with blue bricks on the ground.

With a move in her heart, she raised her head, looked at the palace maid with pale yellow flower spikes hanging on her waist, and said, "Please explain to the girl, what is the reputation of this place?" ”

The palace maid didn't seem to expect that she could guess the end of it just from the shape of the blue bricks on the ground, and her eyes were a little less contemptuous, but she still said coldly, "This is a test that all the girls who go to the royal palace to participate in the lotus banquet must attend. ”

Is it a test?

Mu Xiaofeng raised his eyebrows, his bright eyes exuded a soft but impenetrable brilliance, his eyes looked at the palace maid with a smile, and said, "This is what Princess Yuanning means?" ”

The palace maid didn't understand the vague sound in her words for a while, and when she heard this, she nodded and responded, "Yes, Miss Mu, please." ”

Mu Xiaofeng smiled, her long eyelashes covered the shallow playfulness in her eyes, and said, "Presumably, Princess Yuanning and the girls are already waiting inside?" ”

The maid hesitated, then replied, "Yes." ”

Mu Xiaofeng walked towards the place in the shape of a gossip map, and after taking two steps, she paused to look back at the palace maid and asked, "Does the princess have anything else to tell the girl to teach together?" ”

The palace maid shook her head, lowered her eyes slightly, and glanced at the cyan floor tiles not far from Mu Xiaofeng's feet, intentionally or unintentionally
