Chapter 30: The Spirited Squire

"Lord Fan is really wise and powerful!"

Lu Xun couldn't help but sneer, he was very interested in what the two guards said, but unfortunately, in addition to Mu Guichen, he could only find Fan Shiting.

As a result, this result seemed to arouse Mu Guichen's suspicions, so he was temporarily reluctant to let Fan Shiting say it to the public.

The person who hates the interrogation is not himself, so he knows nothing.

"Compared to Lord Lu, who has found the key prisoner, I can't say anything about this matter."

Fan Shiting knew that he must be very concerned about the confession, but unfortunately he couldn't find out anything, so he was very happy in his heart.

"Since there's nothing to do, I'll go."

Glancing at Lu Xun triumphantly, Fan Shiting looked interested in every step.

Mu Guichen accompanied Mu Yan in the Hall of Light, but his heart always drifted elsewhere, and since he knew the content of the confession, he had never been able to concentrate.

In the end, it was Mu Yan's own trial, and he didn't participate much.

Fortunately, Mu Yan is a smart person, and he has learned a lot of books, and now he can really be regarded as independent, but he is still reluctant to talk to others, except for Rong Xi.

Rong Xi follows Mu Yan every day, how can he have time to do those things?

"The Queen Mother has arrived!"

Just as Mu Guichen was thinking about it, Father-in-law Lin outside the door pinched his throat and reported loudly.

As soon as Rong Xi entered the Hall of Light, he saw Mu Guichen, nodded slightly, and after saying hello, he hurriedly hugged Mu Yan.

"Your Majesty's government affairs today have all been dealt with?"

Rong Xi asked, glanced at the folds on the table, it had been dealt with a lot, and Mu Guichen also held a book in his hand, but it was upside down.

"Auntie......"

Mu Yan grabbed Rong Xi's sleeve and lowered his head silently.

Rong Xi saw Mu Guichen holding the fold as if he was watching, obviously his mind was not on it, but he kept pretending, and couldn't help but remind him.

"It's the other way around."

After she reminded her in a whisper, she told Mu Yan to let him obediently read the recital.

Mu Guichen glanced at the fold in his hand, and hurriedly straightened it back, a trace of embarrassment appeared on his face, he thought about that case, and thought about it.

"I heard that Fan Shiting took someone to search the guard courtyard last night, and it seems that he found something? Or maybe the two guards have already signed the pledge, right? ”

In a tentative tone, Rong Xi asked about the progress of the case.

In fact, she just asked, not that she was weak-hearted, but when she suddenly asked, Mu Guichen suddenly felt that she was not weak-hearted, otherwise, how could she ask.

"yes, I found some jewelry."

Mu Guichen looked at her expression, and there was also a sense of inquiry.

He wanted to know if the matter was really related to Rong Xi, his heart was really unhappy to be related to Rong Xi, and besides, he also felt that Rong Xi was not that kind of person.

During these days, they didn't get along for long, but Mu Guichen gradually changed his opinion of Rong Xi.

How could a person who could be infinitely patient and gentle with Mu Yan be so ruthless in instructing others and killing so many people?

What's more, when the autopsy was conducted by the lake that day, Rong Xi also looked eager to find out the truth of the matter.

If everything was done by Rong Xi alone, then Mu Guichen really had to applaud and admire her for raising such a good play.

"Jewelry? What's so strange? Rong Xi asked suspiciously.

Seeing that he had been staring at himself, Rong Xi looked down at what he was wearing, there was no problem, and the moment he looked up and wanted to ask, a possibility flashed in his mind.

"Don't tell me those pieces of jewelry are mine?"

She pointed to her nose in a surprised tone.

"Not bad."

Mu Guichen was so surprised when he saw her, and nodded lightly, Rong Xi felt a little funny, but he couldn't laugh.

No wonder from the time he first came in, Mu Guichen looked absent-minded, it seems that he also thinks it's her.

"Are you suspicious of me? How could I? ”

Rong Xi got up to refute, his movements were a little violent, and he touched the table on the side, which frightened Mu Yan to cry.

This was the first time that Mu Yan saw Rong Xi's fierce appearance, and he was naturally frightened.

Glancing at Mu Yan, Rong Xi hurriedly coaxed Mu Yan: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, don't cry, I didn't mean to, don't be afraid." ”

She comforted softly, but Mu Yan kept crying.

The atmosphere in the hall was also a little dull, so Rong Xi asked Gonggong Lin to take Mu Yan down first, so as not to cry more fiercely later.

Only three people were left in the palace: her, Lu Qi, and the regent.

"Lu Qi, you go out first."

Slightly tilted her head to look at Lu Qi, Lu Qi did not follow, afraid that it would not be safe to leave her alone.

"Don't worry."

She whispered, and Lu Qi slowly retreated.

Mu Guichen took out the confession he had just taken from Fan Shiting from his sleeve, put it on the table, and gently pressed it with an inkstone.

"It's their confession."

Rong Xi took the confession directly from the table, and when he saw the content of the confession, he couldn't help laughing, and there were tears in the corners of his eyes.

"Ridiculous! It's ridiculous! ”

She threw the confession back into Mu Guichen's arms and stared at him tightly.

"So, you think so too?"

Unexpectedly, she lifted a stone to shoot herself in the foot, and the matter obviously had nothing to do with her, but it still involved herself.

What's more, what happened to the Dragon Boat Festival palace banquet, if it weren't for Rong Xi's own precautions before, she would have really been detained as obscene by someone now.

"The evidence is already here, not to mention, there are your jewelry on the side of the Criminal Department, all of which are your dowry." Mu Guichen said word by word.

If Rong Xi can't defend her innocence, then she can't blame Mu Guichen for treating her like this.

"I see."

Rong Xi said with a smile, she thought of the palace maid who drugged her that day, this was clearly the handiwork of the palace maid, she had nothing to do, how could she go to see if there was anything missing in the jewelry or dowry.

Who knows, just by accident, it was dealt with like this.

She really couldn't imagine who she had offended, and she had never heard Lu Qi say it.

"Know what?"

Mu Guichen looked at her smile and frowned.

"Do you only know why I didn't have an affair with the guards during the Dragon Boat Festival palace banquet?"

Looking at Mu Guichen, Rong Xi asked word by word, hearing her words, Mu Guichen's face was a little ugly, thinking that she had admitted that she had fornicated with the guards.

She dared to say such a thing, which was too shameful.

"Ridiculous!"

Mu Guichen knocked over the inkstone and said angrily.
