279 Ascending right is a lifetime
After listening to Mu Lanlan, Mu An thought that he had heard it wrong, and said in surprise: "The third sister is getting married?" ”
Mu Lanlan nodded: "I originally planned to tell the eldest sister when everything was ready, but now I ......"
Before he finished speaking, Mu Lanlan hid his face and cried bitterly.
Casually handing the handkerchief over, Mu An gave Tingfeng a look, and Tingfeng shook his head to say that he didn't know.
Mu Lanlan choked up and couldn't speak, Mu An whispered with relief: "It's a good thing that the third sister can get married, why are you crying?" Is the other party not good enough, and the third sister doesn't want to marry? ”
Pear Blossom shook her head with rain, and Mu Lanlan twitched and said, "No, big sister, I want to marry." ”
"Why are you crying if you want to get married?"
"Because...... He's dead, big sister, the person I'm going to marry is dead, I can't marry him anymore. ”
Mu An: "What? ”
For some reason, Mu An's mouth jumped, and he heard Mu Lanlan continue: "Does the eldest sister know about the inn murder case in Pizhou, there are so many people, why did the killer kill him alone!" ”
Pizhou!
Inn!
Mu An raised his eyes and looked at Mu Lanlan.
"He is a good person, jealous and hateful, he is a frank son, and he will hurt people", Mu Lanlan endured his grief: "It is me who has climbed the high branches, and it is a blessing to be able to marry him after eight lifetimes, big sister, do you know?" I was full of joy, I didn't ask for anything, I wanted to pick a good day and tell my big sister happily, if my big sister didn't dislike it and could watch me get married, then when I got to my husband's house, for the sake of my big sister, everyone would look up to me. ”
"But...... Why did he die? ”
died in Pizhou, the death was unknown, the bones were not cold, and nothing was left.
For a long time, Mu An couldn't speak, her throat couldn't help but hurt a little, he knew who that person was.
It was the prince of the capital who died under the Qingyin sword, and was made a substitute ghost by Xiao Kun.
"Three... Sister", Mu An suddenly whispered: "I'm sorry. ”
Mu Lanlan didn't hear it too clearly, she couldn't help herself with grief, and her eyes were swollen: "Big sister, Zhang Gongzi died in Pizhou, but I have changed Geng stickers with him, my father went to withdraw from the marriage the day before yesterday, and the old man of the Zhang family was willing, but for some reason there was news from Pizhou, the case has been closed, and I can't investigate it, this... How so? ”
Ten fingers closed slightly, and Mu An was silent.
It's Xiao Ci, he has always been resolute, afraid that Qingge will be found out, afraid that he will be involved, but after two days, he secretly put out the matter.
…… I never thought that this matter would hurt Mu Lanlan.
"Big sister, Zhang Gongzi was brutally killed, the Zhang family must have a result, Mrs. Zhang said that I killed Zhang Gongzi, and I didn't want to withdraw from the marriage at all", Mu Lanlan's face flashed with a look of horror, she sobbed: "I still want to enter the house as usual, and keep Zhang Gongzi a widow for the rest of my life, my father and mother are unwilling, who knows that Master Zhang will let people come and smash the house in the afternoon, and it will be all smashed, and my younger brother is also sick." ”
Mu An: "Anything else?" ”
"Don't hide it from the eldest sister, the Zhang family is also powerful, thanks to the eldest sister's blessing, my father's business has just started, and it was all good, but there are people in the Zhang family in the yamen, and I checked my father's batch of goods casually, and the forbidden items were found inside, and my father was arrested early this morning, I really don't know what to do."
After saying that, he kept crying.
Mu An frowned, he thought that this matter had passed quietly, but now it was tricky again.
People were killed by Qingyin, so she naturally couldn't stand by and watch.
"Third sister, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter."
Mu Lanlan opened her eyes: "Thank you, big sister." ”
Look, there are still people in this world who will protect her, and what is she not satisfied with.
Mu Lanlan got up and saluted, her lips were pale, she staggered with every step forward, stared at the slender back twice, and couldn't help but tremble.
The corners of his lips tensed, and he suddenly raised his voice: "Third sister." ”
Mu Lanlan turned around: "Big sister is still in trouble?" ”
"Does the third sister like Zhang Gongzi?"
Looking at each other, Mu An knew very well how difficult it was for a serious young lady like Mu Lanlan, who was neither noble nor down-and-out, to find someone who was destined to marry and live a peaceful and stable life.
Silently, she even gave Geng stickers, and she was ready to pick a good day to invite herself to be a guest, she must be full of joy and hope for the future.
But now the light is shattered.
"The tears are a little disobedient, so that the big sister smiles", Mu Lanlan smiled with her haggard face, wiped a handful of tears fiercely, and said: "Does the big sister want to hear the truth?" ”
Mu An said, "Yes. ”
"I don't like it, it's not that I don't like it, but it's good, it's good. For me, it is impossible for this generation to marry someone who has a unique favor like my big sister, Zhang Gongzi has a good family background and is willing to be good to me. ”
"I asked him, would you like to marry someone as boring as me?"
"Big sister, guess what he said?" Mu Lanlan smiled: "He didn't even think about it, he said-okay." ”
"Big sister, he is willing to marry me, and I am willing to marry him, which is the right one, and it is for life."
Mu Lanlan also has her own arrogance, she doesn't seek Mu An's glory and wealth, she hates Mu Qingqing's cocooning and self-restraint, she just wants to find someone who loves her, doesn't worry about food and clothing, and has a stable life.
Mu Lanlan said: "Big sister, I thought I was living my best, but overnight it seemed that there was nothing, and I fell into the mud from the clouds, and I am afraid that I will not be able to help me again......"
Even if he finally divorced, Zhang Gongzi still died, Mu Shun still had trouble with the Zhang family in the end, all the neighbors chewed their tongues, and Mu Lanlan's reputation was also lost.
She will never meet such a suitable person as Zhang Gongzi again.
Listening to the wind called Mu An several times, Mu An didn't hear it, and his fingertips were hard to listen to the wind and hurt, and before he knew it, Mu An was in tears.
Listen to the wind: "Princess? ”
"I'm fine", Mu An slowly sat back: "Go to the yamen for me, bring a message to Cao Qi, and let Mu Shun go." ”
"Princess, Third Miss, she doesn't know anything, she won't blame you", listening to the wind, he said: "The princess doesn't have to take all the fault on herself, she carries it alone, the prince has arranged it, and the Zhang family has a son, if she is diligent and upright, she will one day find a place in the court." ”
"I see, go ahead."
An hour later, Mu Shun returned home, and Lin Suyan cried with joy: "Master, you are back, the eldest lady has sent enough silver, and with her help, it will be fine." ”
"In the future, let's call the princess Niangniang", Mu Shun was beaten, his legs were a little lame, the corners of his mouth were broken, his hair was messy, and he whispered: "The Zhang family's marriage is withdrawn, and we will leave the capital." ”
Mu Lanlan leaned against the door and said weakly: "Dad, I'm sorry." ”
After this incident, Mu Shun suddenly became much more enlightened, and he didn't blame Mu Lanlan, but said: "What's the use of blaming you, the marriage was decided by my father, and that Zhang Gongzi's life is not good, I can't drag you to bury him, the capital is not suitable for us for a long time, it is better to leave cleanly, and it will be a hundred." ”
Anyway, Ouyang Ji is all over the world, and when he left the capital, Mu Shun had a good relationship with them, and he didn't worry about food and clothing at worst.
The Zhang family is unwilling to withdraw from the marriage in any matter, and Mrs. Zhang washes her face with tears all day long, why did she close the case without saying a word after her son's death.
The white flags of the Zhang family mourned, and suddenly the family came in and said, "Old lady, the princess regent is here." ”
Zhang Lin got up suddenly: "Who is coming?" ”
"Yes...... Princess Regent. ”
"What are you doing in a daze, go and greet you!"
There was no need for them to greet him, Mu An had already come in, and the Zhang family cried again and again, which couldn't help but make Mu An think that there should be a happy event here in two days.
Zhang Lin pulled his wife out to salute: "I didn't know that the princess regent arrived, and I missed the distance." ”
"Master Zhang doesn't have to be polite", Mu An said: "I came in person today, I want to get the third sister's Geng paste back, and then withdraw the marriage with Master Zhang." ”
"Princess?" Zhang Lin drooped his face and thought about it carefully, before he reacted, and hurriedly knelt on the ground: "The princess came to withdraw from the marriage in person, which should have been due, but the old man lost his beloved son, and the official family didn't even give an explanation, if the princess can find an accurate explanation for my son's innocent and tragic death, I will withdraw from this marriage." ”
Mingyue on the side swept at Zhang Lin with cold eyes, how to give this statement?
Did you kill Qingyin?
After a moment, Mu An said in a deep voice: "I'm not here to talk to Master Zhang about the conditions, Master Zhang only said that this marriage will not be returned?" ”
Zhang Lin prostrate on the ground, startled: "The princess forgives her sins, now who else can ask for justice for my son besides the princess, and ask the princess to uphold justice." ”
Taking a deep breath, Mu An felt tormented and said coldly: "Master Zhang doesn't have to beg me, I can't help this matter, Zhang Gongzi can't come back, but the third sister is innocent, doesn't the Zhang family even refuse to let go of a woman?" ”
Mrs. Zhang fell prostrate on the ground and wept bitterly.
"Father, return Miss Mu's Geng sticker to the princess."
Mu An turned around and saw a plain white man walking over quickly and saluting: "Zhang Jin has seen the princess." ”
"Hmm".
Zhang Jin turned back to Zhang Lin and said: "Father, my brother is dead, why bother to involve an innocent girl, justice is in the hearts of the people, my brother died tragically in Pizhou, my son doesn't believe that no one in the world will give an explanation, and if it doesn't work, tomorrow my son will go to ask the emperor." ”
Glancing at the indignant Zhang Jin, Mu An remained silent, thinking that he was the son of the Zhang family, looking older than Xiao Ci, but he still couldn't do anything, and barely lived in an inconspicuous position in the ministry.
In front of him was Zhang Gongzi's tablet, and after a pause, Mu An still went straight up to the pillar incense, and said silently: "I apologize to you for Qingyin, I'm sorry." ”
The princess regent personally mourned, Zhang Jin comforted Zhang Lin in a low voice, and whispered: "Dad, my brother is no longer here, so I will sell the princess a favor and think about it for my son." ”
Zhang Lin glared at him hatefully, and told Mrs. Zhang to take out the Geng sticker.
After receiving the Geng sticker, Mu An bowed his hand: "Thank you." ”
Zhang Jin kept sending Mu An to the door, and gave another salute: "The princess walks slowly, Miss Mu's business is that the Zhang family can't help it, and I hope that the princess will see a lot of Haihan for the sake of the second elder who lost his child." ”
"Naturally", Mu An nodded: "Zhang Gongzi is righteous." ”
Watching Mu An walk away, Zhang Jin exhaled a breath, who would have thought that the former orphan girl could come to this day step by step, and let everyone kneel with just one look.
