The night is slightly cold.

When Mu Xiyue came out of the old lady's courtyard, the entire courtyard of the General's Mansion had already been lit up.

In the past half a day, the old lady seemed to have asked all the questions in her life, one mystery after another, Mu Xiyue replied, there was not a single lie, but she led the old lady to the road she paved between words.

After asking, Mu Xiyue saw the old lady whispering a few words in Liuli's ear, and couldn't help but set off an unclear smile in her heart.

Reborn in a lifetime, Mu Xiyue swore that he must treat those who are really good to him, and those who use yin tricks to make dark swords on themselves must not only return them originally, but also get interest from them!

Unconsciously, Mu Xiyue and Zhiyan walked to the path outside General Su's study, looking at the lights still on inside, knowing that General Su had not left yet, they lowered their eyes and thought for a moment, turned around and walked towards the study.

"Third Miss!"

The guards guarding outside saw that someone was coming, and hurriedly came out to stop them, and when they saw that it was Mu Xiyue, they couldn't help but show a little solemnity on their faces, even if they stopped people outside, their attitude was indeed respectful.

"The general is busy, and now he doesn't see anyone."

The guard's voice lacked that ruthlessness and killing, I don't know why, the young woman in front of him actually made him have an inexplicable sense of respect, and it didn't seem very appropriate to say respect, but that feeling, he couldn't say clearly, in short, in the face of her, he didn't dare to slack off.

Mu Xiyue stopped, her eyes swept over the guard's face, her face was still calm and indifferent, and she was not annoyed by being blocked.

"I have something to report to the general, please help me report it."

Mu Xiyue's voice was calm, but her face was solemn, which made people nervous spontaneously.

The guard lowered his head, he couldn't see Mu Xiyue's face clearly, but he could clearly see the depth between her eyes, and his heart paused slightly, and he turned around and walked towards the study.

Looking at the back of the guard, Mu Xiyue's eyes flashed with a trace of coldness, and she secretly thought to herself, the night breeze was very cool, but it couldn't blow away the haze in her heart.

"Third Miss, the general invites you in."

Mu Xiyue suddenly retracted her thoughts, looked up at the guard's solemn face, nodded, and raised her feet up the steps.

In the study, the window is open, the breeze is blowing, and the candle center is swaying slightly, which makes people's hearts fluctuate a little more.

General Su was holding a pen in his hand and marking something on the base map, and when he heard the sound of the bead curtain, he raised his head, just in time to meet Mu Xiyue's clear eyes.

"Daddy."

The moment Mu Xiyue and General Su met their eyes, their hearts couldn't help but tremble, and then they raised their feet and walked in.

"What are you in a hurry about coming here so late?"

General Su's voice was a little more tired and vicissitudes, not because the current matter was tricky, but because this matter made him have to be cautious, a wrong move may lead to the destruction of the whole family, but fortunately, the emperor still trusts him now.

Walking a few steps closer, Mu Xiyue faintly saw the fine sweat oozing out of General Su's forehead, and her heart couldn't help but lock.

"I hid my big sister."

Mu Xiyue's voice was peaceful, her eyes were dark and clear, without a trace of impurities, and her voice was very soft, but through this quiet night, people couldn't help but tremble in their hearts.

"What did you say!"

The pen in General Su's hand fell to the ground with a "snap", and the eyes that had not fluctuated were now up, and the emperor appointed the prince to track down the rest of the party during the day, although he couldn't help but let people follow him to the Four Princes' Mansion, but the news still knew something, knowing that the Four Princes and Princesses were no longer in the mansion, and he was still irritable and panicked, but he didn't expect that it was this kid who did it.

"You're so daring!"

Now that Su Qianyue is not in danger, General Su is relieved, but after thinking about it, the heart that has not yet fallen is instantly raised again, and he is secretly hiding and shielding, if it is found, isn't this juncture just hitting the knife edge!

seemed to know what General Su was thinking, Mu Xiyue's eyes were a little dim, she sighed secretly, met General Su's majestic eyes, and looked straight over, without the slightest evasion.

"When I went, the fourth prince had already imprisoned the eldest sister and Ning'er, so I guessed that he must be trying to use the eldest sister to blackmail his father and eldest brother to help him, and the situation was urgent, so I had to take the eldest sister and Ning'er away first."

Mu Xiyue's voice was clear, her eyes were not as gentle as before, but a little more aggressive, the fourth prince had been preparing for this plan for so many years, if he hadn't been reborn for himself, maybe he would have succeeded.

"You! Confused! ”

In General Su's eyes, Mu Xiyue is still the little girl who has not grown up, and she still hasn't recovered from this huge change for a while, and her subconscious voice is a little more cold, but she can't say it for a while.

What Mu Xiyue said was also true, but the situation at that time was also true, she was shocked and serious, but she couldn't reprimand her.

It seemed that she had expected General Su's reaction, Mu Xiyue looked at General Su and seemed to be a little excited, and her heart did not fluctuate much.

"When I got the news, I had some doubts in my heart, with the caution and suspicion of the four princes, things were searched out, which was really confusing, and the four princes were originally anti-minded, this stimulation is undoubtedly the key to directly bringing him into the abyss, so I guess, behind this matter, there must be someone pushing the manipulation, if it is really as I think, the person behind this, when the four princes entered the palace, killed the eldest sister and Ning'er, will undoubtedly push this matter to a situation where there is no turning back, I can't control national affairs as a woman, The only thing you can do is to protect your loved ones. ”

Mu Xiyue's voice has this bit of calmness that is not commensurate with her age, her eyes are clear and black, and under the night, the waves are flowing and rippling, and she is intrigued, even if she is a battle-hardened General Su, she was also suppressed by her for a while.

His eyes widened suddenly, General Su looked at Mu Xiyue's mature appearance, and his heart couldn't help trembling slightly, suddenly, he felt that this child was very strange, maybe it was not very appropriate to say that it was strange, but it made him a little difficult to believe the changes in this child now.

"How do you know this?"

There was a bit of exploration between his eyes, and General Su's eyes fell on Mu Xiyue's face, as if he wanted to see something from her face, but he was very helpless, and he didn't see anything.

Raising his eyes to meet General Su's gaze, Mu Xiyue now no longer had the delicate grievances he had when he was at the gate during the day, and his calm face even made him see a sharp and cold face.

"I don't know, it's all just speculation." Mu Xiyue's voice was still calm and indifferent, raising her eyes to meet General Su's gaze, without the slightest evasion.

Retracting his gaze, General Su looked down at the map just now, the moment the pen fell, the ink stained the paper, which made him frown, and let out a long sigh of relief, a little helpless, but he had to admit that maybe Mu Xiyue's approach was the best.

"You're right, the fourth prince is trying to use your eldest sister to contain me and your eldest brother, and your thoughts are also what we considered before, don't act rashly until the matter is clear, and so are you."

General Su's cold eyes looked at Mu Xiyue, even though his eyes were always ruthless, but he couldn't help but add a little worry in his words, I have to say that since she came back, this daughter has impressed herself more than once.

"You, don't blame your mother, she is also too worried, some things have not been considered, it is not that she does not love you."

General Su sighed a little in his voice, and as he spoke, his eyes fell on Mu Xiyue's face, although her expression could not be seen clearly through the veil, but the fluctuations between her eyes were clear at a glance.

For some reason, General Su's originally comforting words were now heard in Mu Xiyue's ears, but they were so sad, he didn't know, so he could say this, he already knew everything, and his heart was dead.

"I know it, I don't blame my mother, it's just that this matter is big or small, and the fewer people who know about it, the better, so ...... I didn't tell her, but now I'm here to tell you, first, if I protect my eldest sister and Ning'er, I really don't have that much ability, and I need my father's help, and second, I also hope to calm my father's heart. ”

A few words are reasonable, everything is for the family, for the sake of the Su family, General Su, who originally felt a little guilty about this daughter, is now even more indescribably moved in his heart, the children in the whole family, I am afraid that only this child can think about the family like this, thinking about everything that happened after coming back during this time, his face couldn't help but bring out a little guilt, and even the usual coldness was reduced by a few points.

"It's really hard for you, don't worry, Dad will send a team of people to protect you."

General Su sighed, with a bit of love in his voice, reached out and patted Mu Xiyue lightly on the shoulder, but did not speak again.

Mu Xiyue responded, looked at General Su with clear eyes, his face was a little more calm, as if he remembered something, turned around and walked to the table, looked down at the map on the paper, and there was a bit of solemnity between his eyes.

"Although I don't know the situation in the court, I always have a feeling of indescribability in my heart, perhaps, the hand behind this is here."

While speaking, Mu Xiyue stretched out her hand and pointed at a place on the map in front of General Su, and at the moment of speaking, she looked up at General Su, saw the shock and changes on his face, and knew that she had guessed correctly.

"That's not your business!"

General Su's voice seemed to come out of the cold cellar in the deep pool, which made people's hearts shake uncontrollably, not to be wary of her, but to beware of the current situation, the more she knew, the more she would be in danger.

The body stiffened, Mu Xiyue withdrew her hand, her clear eyes swept over General Su's face, she didn't say anything more, she saluted and retreated, and seemed to know the reason why General Su was angry, it was precisely because of this that there was more entanglement in her heart, and it was inevitable that she would be hurt.

Return to Huashangyuan.

Mother Jin and Zhihua have been looking outside at the gate, knowing what happened in the front yard just now, they can't help but worry in their hearts, until they see Mu Xiyue coming over, and a new one can be regarded as falling.

Entering the back room, Mu Xiyue didn't tell Jin's mother about the outside things, Jin's mother is old, she can pay attention to the things in the inner courtyard, and the things outside are told to her several times, but it is just to increase her troubles.

This night, Mu Xiyue didn't read books as usual, thinking about what happened these days, which made her a little inexplicably annoyed, suddenly, there was a sound of bead curtains ringing in her ears, and the moment she raised her head, the expression on her face changed instantly!

It turned out to be Mozi! Shouldn't she be by her big sister and Ning'er's side? How did you get back now?
