"Then I'll let Qianqian come in to accompany you," Qiao Jingduan explained again before turning around and leaving.

Mu Changhuan didn't speak, she was in a bad mood and was too lazy to refuse.

Qiao Jingduan walked outside, and not long after, Qiao Qingqian came in from outside, she was dressed in plain clothes, her eyes were red, and she bowed down towards Mu Changhuan, "Cousin! ”

Mu Changhuan raised his head and glanced at her, there was sorrow, coldness, and resentment in his eyes.

The old lady's death is inextricably linked to Qiao Qingqian and Huo Yunsheng.

Qiao Qingqian was looked at like this by Mu Changhuan, and she also remembered that she had done something stupid, a touch of guilt appeared in her eyes, and she stood in place without moving.

Mu Changhuan didn't pay attention to her after glancing at her, just turned his head away, held his forehead and closed his eyes.

In the Beijing Palace, Xiao He quickly learned about the death of the old lady of the Qiaoguo Mansion, and also knew that Mu Changhuan was in the Qiaoguo Mansion.

At that moment, people prepared a thing for condolences and came to the Guogong Mansion.

When he arrived at Qiao Guogong's Mansion, it was Qiao Jingduan who picked him up, and after saying his condolences, before he could ask, Qiao Jingduan had already instructed Qiu Feng, "Take the prince to Nanqiu Courtyard." ”

"Yes, sir!" Qiu Feng agreed and made a gesture of invitation to Xiao He.

Xiao He bowed his head at Qiao Jing, and followed the autumn breeze inside.

The two passed through the busy and orderly front hall and backyard, and finally stopped outside the wing room of the Nanqiu Courtyard.

"Lord Qiqi, the princess is in the wing!" Qiu Feng bowed his body and said to Xiao He.

Xiao He nodded, glanced at him, and then pushed open the door of the wing room and walked in.

Inside the house, Qiao Qingqian reacted first, she looked at Xiao He and saluted, "The courtiers have seen the prince, and the prince is blessed with Jin'an." ”

"You go out first!" Xiao He's face was cold, and he chased away the guests without hesitation, Qiao Qing was stunned for a moment, and retreated out.

After she left, Mu Changhuan on the Luohan bed opened her eyes, and she glanced at Xiao He coldly, "You're here." ”

"Well," Xiao He walked towards her, didn't ask about the King of Shu or the old lady, he just stood in front of her, hugged her tightly, lowered his head and said in a dumb voice, "No matter what happens, with this king here, this king will always accompany you." ”

"Hmm," Mu Changhuan replied in a low voice, and she hugged Xiao He's waist back.

After a long time, he calmed down, "Zhong Tan has already promised to help the prince lift the ban." ”

Xiao He heard that she was still worried about him, and there was a complication in his eyes, and he hummed lightly.

Mu Changhuan let go of him, motioned for him to sit down, and continued, "Also, what happened to Shen Yusheng that day, he also did it, his hypnotism has improved a lot compared to the beginning, and the ban on the prince, he even tied the prince's life and death to that prohibition, if others forcibly break through, it will kill the prince." ”

"This king knows," Xiao He bowed.

The two looked at each other, and neither of them spoke again.

About an hour later, a maidservant girl came in to report that the old lady had changed her clothes, and the coffin had been sent to the mourning hall and was about to be buried.

Mu Changhuan's eyes suddenly turned red again, Xiao He noticed her sadness, and he held her hand tightly.

Although he didn't say a word, the concern in his eyes flowed into Mu Changhuan's heart like a trickle.

The two walked out of the Nanqiu Courtyard and walked towards the front yard, where the old lady's mourning hall was set up in the front hall.

When they arrived, the hall was already full of kneeling people.

Mu Changhuan watched as the old lady's body was carried in by Qiao Jingduan, and the old man was buried in person.

The moment the coffin was closed, the entire hall was filled with suppressed cries.

The old lady has a kind temperament, and over the years, she has been deeply respected by every junior in the Qiao Guo Mansion.

Even the second lady also had red eyes and kept wiping away tears.

And this kneeling came into the night.

Qiao Guogong knew that Mu Changhuan's identity was unusual, so he sent the housekeeper to persuade Mu Changhuan to go back.

Mu Changhuan didn't pay much attention to the rules, and after listening to the housekeeper's words, she didn't respond, but looked at Xiao He.

Xiao He was so astute, he saw what Mu Changhuan meant, and immediately swept to the housekeeper, saying, "The princess and her grandmother have a deep relationship, and now it is the last bit of her heart that she can fulfill, during this time, this king will stay in the Guogong Mansion with the princess." ”

"This, that's fine," the housekeeper didn't expect King Beijing to pamper his cousin so much, he replied a little stumblingly, and then went back to his life.

"Thank you," after the housekeeper left, Mu Changhuan looked at Xiao He and thanked him softly.

Xiao He helped her up, "I know that you are filial to your grandmother, but you also want your own body, you have been kneeling for a long time, go back and eat some food first!" ”

"Hmm," Mu Chang welcomed his distressed gaze, nodded slightly, and was led by him towards the outside of the mourning hall.

This time, she did not go back to Nanqiu Temple, but went back to Qingfeng Garden.

The eldest lady is in charge, and she has already let people clean up, and she has arranged new people.

As soon as she returned, someone immediately waited for her to bathe and cleanse herself, dry her hair, and bring in some rice porridge and side dishes.

Xiao He personally served a bowl of porridge to Mu Changhuan and handed it to her, "Eat as much as you want." ”

Mu Changhuan glanced at him, picked up the porridge bowl, and ate it like chewing wax.

Occasionally, Xiao He would give her a dish with chopsticks.

When the two finished dinner and planned to go to the mourning hall to guard again, Chu Zhang suddenly came over with Yun Mei and brought good news that the prince had returned to normal.

"What about the emperor?" Xiao He glanced at Mu Changhuan and swept to Chu Zhang and asked.

Chu Zhang arched his hand and said, "Although the prince of the hidden world helped the prince to return to normal, his ability to deal with the aftermath was extremely high, and he did not implicate the emperor. ”

When Xiao He heard him say this, his brows tightened, and he waved his hand and said, "Let people continue to stare at the emperor, and if there is anything abnormal, report it immediately!" ”

"Yes, Lord Wang!" Chu Zhang was ordered to leave.

Xiao He held Mu Changhuan's hand and continued to lead her outside.

But Mu Changhuan suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Xiao He looked back at her.

Mu Changhuan said, "You go back to the palace, seven days later, it will be good to come again when my grandmother is buried, you don't have to accompany me all the time, just have Yunmei by my side." ”

When Xiao He heard Mu Changhuan say this, he only felt that his status had been challenged, but thinking that Mu Changhuan had just lost his relatives, he couldn't lose his temper with him, so he had to glare at Yun Mei.

Yun Mei was glared at by Xiao He fiercely, only feeling extremely aggrieved, she flattened her mouth and looked at Mu Changhuan for help.

Mu Changhuan helped his forehead and turned to Xiao He, "Don't say anything else, Mu Er is still in the palace, if you don't go back, he will be scared alone." ”

"You have a point!" Hearing Mu Changhuan mention Mu Er, Xiao He finally compromised, and he explained to Yun Mei with earnestness, and he wanted to take good care of Mu Changhuan before leaving Qingfeng Yuan.

Mu Changhuan watched him walk away, and then walked out of Qingfeng Garden with Yun Mei.

Qingfeng Garden is on the edge of the South Autumn Courtyard, which is the last side of the middle road of Qiao Guogongfu, and there is a rockery in the South Autumn Courtyard from the Qingfeng Garden, and the two of them quickly walked to the vicinity of the rockery.

Mu Changhuan was about to open his mouth and asked Yunmei about something.

As a result, she had just started when a muffled sound suddenly came from behind the rockery.

"Who is it?" Mu Changhuan's five senses were sensitive, she stopped and asked in a loud voice.

Behind the rockery, it suddenly quieted down.

"Maybe it's a cat or a dog or something," Yun Mei listened for a while, trying to reassure Mu Changhuan, "Girl, let's hurry up and go to the front yard!" ”

"I'll take a look!" Mu Changhuan didn't listen to Yun Mei's suggestion, but pulled his legs and walked towards the back of the rockery, and Yun Mei saw this, so he had to follow.

The two quickly went around to the back of the rockery, but there was no one behind the rockery, only some dead branches.

"Maybe it's a night owl!" Yun Mei guessed again.

Mu Changhuan didn't pay attention to her, the eyes of people who practice martial arts will be better than ordinary people, although she can't see it really, but she has also found some clues.

By the faint moonlight, he walked towards the rockery.

Seeing this, Yun Mei wanted to stop Mu Changhuan, but he thought that he didn't know what was in the rockery, and he was afraid of startling the snake, so he could only hold his heartbeat and slowly follow.

When Mu Changhuan entered the rockery, he smelled the fragrance of fat powder.

There were also some dead branches in the cave, and although she had tried her best to avoid them, she still stepped on one.

As the voice rang out, a woman's whimper sounded inside.

Mu Changhuan was sure that there was someone inside, and he walked faster.

Soon she saw a pair of figures.

It was a man who kidnapped a woman.

And that woman was Huo Yunsheng.

At this time, she was still whimpering, as if she was afraid of the man next to her.

"Who are you?" The man restrained Huo Yunshang with one hand, looked at Mu Changhuan and asked.

Mu Changhuan ignored him, he continued to walk forward, and before he forcefully pushed Huo Yunsheng away and planned to deal with her, he suddenly punched and hit him in the face.

Her strength was already great, and for a while, the man didn't even have a chance to return his hand, so he fell straight backwards.

"Cousin continue!" Mu Changhuan saw that the man was no longer a threat to Huo Yunsheng, so he politely said to her, and then turned around to leave.

Huo Yunshang was finally rescued, it was the time of panic, how could she watch Mu Changhuan go, busy with her hands and feet, staggered after her, and said, "Thank you cousin for saving me, I was forced to ......"

Mu Changhuan turned around, "He has no threat to you now, how to deal with it, it's your business, my maidservant and I won't talk much!" ”

With that, she turned and walked away, this time, without any pause.

Her feet were extremely fast, Huo Yunshang still wanted to catch up, but she didn't have the strength, and in desperation, she had to shout loudly, "Cousin, grandmother said you would help me." ”

"Oh?" Hearing the old lady's three words, Mu Changhuan finally stopped again, she looked at Huo Yunsheng coldly, "What the hell is going on?" ”

Huo Yunshang hurriedly stepped forward, got out of the rockery, knelt down in front of her, took off a bracelet in his hand, handed it to Mu Changhuan and said, "Grandmother said that this is the jade bracelet she has worn all her life, if I give this bracelet to my cousin, my cousin will help me find a family affair and help me entrust my beloved." ”

Mu Changhuan took the bracelet and took a look, it was indeed the one that the old lady had been wearing for many years.

However, she did not directly agree to Huo Yunsheng, but looked at her silently.

Huo Yunshang saw that Mu Changhuan should not, she thought for a moment, and as if she remembered something, she said, "If my cousin doubts me, you can ask Mama Xu, when my grandmother said these words to me, she was also beside her." ”

Mu Changhuan was waiting for this sentence, "I know," she put away the jade bracelet, "After a year, I will arrange it for you." ”

"A year?" Hearing this deadline, Huo Yunsheng showed a frightened expression.

"What, you can't wait?"

"Yes, I can't wait!" Huo Yunshang said hurriedly, her words already had a crying tone, "Cousin, do you know who the person who forced me in the rockery just now, he is the eldest son of the second room of Huo Wangfu...... Huo Junting! ”

"He's Huo Junting?" Mu Changhuan didn't expect this, and asked in shock.

Huo Yunshang sobbed and couldn't speak.

Mu Changhuan thought of what happened to this cousin, sighed, and helped her up, "Don't worry, he won't dare to bully you again in the future." ”

"......" Huo Yunsheng looked at Mu Changhuan expectantly.

In order to appease her and fulfill her grandmother's wishes, Mu Changhuan had to say, "When my grandmother's funeral is over, I will arrange for you to live in the Zhuangzi of the palace, where it will be harder, but safe!" ”

"Thank you, cousin!" Huo Yunshang just wanted to avoid Huo Junting now, she couldn't care about anything else, hearing Mu Changhuan say this, she was almost grateful to Dade for agreeing.

"You go back and change your clothes first!" Mu Changhuan didn't take any more stubble, just gave a faint order.

"Okay," Huo Yunshang agreed, and left the rockery.

After she left, Mu Changhuan didn't leave, but shouted towards the void, "Night Three! ”

"I don't know what the master commands?" Soon, Ye San appeared, knelt in front of Mu Changhuan and asked.

Mu Changhuan didn't have any expression on his face, "There is a man in the fake cave, abolish him!" ”

"Yes, master!" Yesan agreed, then got up and walked to the rockery.

Mu Changhuan walked away with Yun Mei raised.

The two arrived at the mourning hall in the front yard, and within a short time of kneeling, they heard a high-pitched and heart-rending cry.

"What's going on?" A timid junior screamed.

The eldest man frowned and instructed Qiao Jingduan, "You go out and have a look!" ”

"Yes, Father!" Qiao Jingduan agreed and walked outside, not long after, Qiu Feng came in to report, "If you go back to the master, it was Huo Shizi who was injured at the rockery. ”

"Seriously?" The eldest gentleman asked.

Qiu Feng pursed his lips, looking like he wanted to speak and stopped.

Thinking of the scream just now, the eldest man had a bad premonition in his heart, he stood up and said to Qiu Feng, "You come out with me!" ”

"Yes!" Qiu Feng agreed and went out with the eldest master.

When he got outside, he saw that there was no one around, so the eldest man asked, "Huo Shizi, what's going on?" ”

"Back to the old man's words, Huo Shizi's thing was cut off by the roots, and the bones on his body were broken seven or eight times out of ten!"

After listening to Qiu Feng, the whole person almost couldn't stand.

How long did it take Qiu Feng to take a hand before he didn't fall to the ground.

Who doesn't know that the current Princess Huo is the villain, and she loves her eldest son Huo Shizi the most, for so many years, no matter what wrong Huo Shizi has done, she has always only protected her shortcomings and does not ask whether she is right or wrong.

This Huo Shizi had an accident in the Guogong Mansion, and it was such a serious matter, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain!

Thinking like this, his brows furrowed tightly as he walked in the direction of the rockery.

Next to the rockery, Qiao Jingduan had finished surveying with a lantern, and when he saw the eldest master coming, he handed the lantern to the person at hand, and bowed, "I've seen my father!" ”

"How is Huo Shizi's injury? Any clues? ”

Qiao Jingduan thought of the earring he had picked up, and was silent for a moment before shaking his head and saying, "No." ”

Hearing his son say this, the expression on the eldest man's face became more and more embarrassed, and after a pause, he asked again, "Where is Huo Shizi?" I'm going to see him! ”

"It's already been sent back to King Huo's mansion."

"Send it back to King Huo's Mansion?" The eldest man's expression changed greatly, "Isn't he still bleeding?" Isn't this going to die on the road? ”

"I've already helped him stop the bleeding."

Sir: "......" Is this what he asked?

"I'll send someone to Huo Wang's Mansion to guard," the eldest lord said, turning to leave.

Qiao Jingduan looked at his father's background and said to his subordinates behind him, "You guys are guarding here, and this official will go elsewhere to find someone to ask." With that, he pulled his legs and left.

He started at the lower courtyard in the middle lane and worked his way forward.

Around the ugly time, he entered the courtyard of Huo Yunsheng.

Huo Yunshang also heard Huo Shizi's scream, she was restless at this time, and suddenly heard a rumor from her subordinates, saying that Qiao Jingduan asked to see her and almost fell to the ground.

"Go, ask my eldest cousin to come in!" She commanded her handmaiden.

The maidservant turned away.

It didn't take long for Qiao Jingduan to walk in from outside.

After he entered, he could see the panic on Huo Yunsheng's face almost at a glance.

"All of you go down!" He instructed the people in the house, "There has been a murder in the Guogong Mansion, and everyone, including the master, must be interrogated by the officials, you are optimistic about each other, don't talk to each other!" ”

"Yes, eldest son!" The subordinate was ordered to leave.

After Qiao Jingduan was empty in the room, he spread out his hand, looked at Huo Yunsheng's white earlobes, and said, "If I guessed correctly, these earrings should be your cousin." ”

Huo Yunshang found that she had lost an earring after she came back, and she also wondered if it had been lost in the artificial cave, but the fear in her heart made her dare not look back.

Now that she saw her earrings in Qiao Jingduan's hand, her whole face turned pale.

"Say!" Qiao Jingduan suddenly shouted.

Huo Yunshang was extremely frightened, as soon as her body became weak, she fell to her knees on the ground, crying, "Big cousin, these earrings are mine...... Yes, it was Huo Shizi who kidnapped me on my way to the mourning hall, and he ...... He's not as good as a beast! ”

"And how did you escape?" Qiao Jingduan asked again, "How did Huo Junting get injured?" In other words, who saved you? ”

"Yes...... Huo Yunsheng wanted to speak and stopped, her eyes flickered and looked at Qiao Jingduan, "If I tell this person, will she be worried about her life?" ”

"Who the hell is it?" Qiao Jingduan ran out of patience, "If you don't want to be sent back to King Huo's Mansion, tell me immediately!" ”

His words were full of threats.
