Episode 056: The Disappeared Man

After saying that, after solving Bai Ziyan's funeral, Yan Leshi freed up his hands to discuss Yan Leyun's marriage. The first task was to expand Zhumei Garden and add a small building on the original site, so that Zhumei Garden would become the second highest building in the Yangong Mansion after Mu Li Building.

Because Xu Moqing is the prince, he should have opened a separate mansion with Yan Guiwan, and he didn't need to live in Yan Gong's mansion at all. But Her Majesty the Empress did not allow this, saying that Yan Guiwan and Xu Moqing were still young and needed to listen to the teachings by the elders; Second, it is said that the independent opening of the government is a waste of money for the people, which is not in line with my Dongliang's frugal style. Even if Xu Yanqing married into the Tang Mansion, he only opened a small courtyard in the middle of the Tang family. Therefore, Xu Moqing stayed in Yan's house, and Yan Leshi rebuilt the fifth courtyard, leaving the entire courtyard for Yan Guiwan and Xu Moqing to live in, in order to show respect for His Royal Highness Jiu, which is also the origin of Taoyao Pavilion.

But Yan Leyun and Liu Lian are different, even if the Liu family is ranked among the top families of the three public families, they are not as noble as the Xu family of the Dongliang royal family, so the residence where their wives live must not exceed Taoyao Pavilion. But if Zhumei Garden is not repaired, and it seems that the Yan family does not attach importance to the Liu family, Yan Leshi thought about it, so he had to allow Zhumei Garden to build another layer, which is also a compromise plan.

This year's Mid-Autumn Festival passed in a hurry, and naturally Yan's late 29th birthday was not a big deal. Because everything in the house is one after another, she doesn't want to be too public, so she spends it very plainly and sloppily. In addition to Yan Guiwan, Yan Zeyin and Yan Guilan are also very peaceful, and Wen Changsu is even less worth mentioning, as if the whole family is busy with Yan Leyun's marriage.

Now Yan Leyun no longer has to go to the home school to study, and follows Yan Leshi to be taught every day. Her body is surprisingly able to eat, and she is no longer weak and uncomfortable, even if she loses the medicine soup, it will not hinder her. Yan Leyun's bigger change is that he has become richer, as if he has grown flesh overnight, his originally thin and weak body has grown stronger, and his spirit is much better than before. No matter who sees them, they all praise their transformation.

But there is only one thing that cannot be changed, and that is Yan Leyun's nature - stupid and dull. Yan Leshi's big and small affairs that she explained were all messed up without exception, even if she was sent to help, it would be useless. Yan Leshi seems to have expected it a long time ago, first sent the calligraphy and painting of the eldest female official to her side, but it did not work, so she had to recall the calligraphy and painting, and promoted the female official Liluo next to Yan Leyun to come up, asking her to help the master with everything, although the effect was not satisfactory, but there was some improvement.

Yan Le Shi simply called Jiu Ling and Li Luo to Mu Li Lou, so that the calligraphy, painting, words and deeds were taught, one came back to assist Yan Guiwan, and the other went back to assist Yan Leyun. The people in the house can see it clearly, and they all know that the main mother is "the drunkard's intention is not to drink", Yan Leyun and Yan Guiwan have become the right-hand men of the Yan family, what about Yan Guilan and Yan Zeyin?

Yan Zeyin is a man and he is still young, his mind will not be like a woman, and sooner or later he will find a wife to marry. So he didn't feel that the arrangement of the housemother was inappropriate, but Yan Guilan was different, especially after experiencing Bai Ziyan's death, she obviously felt that she had no status in this Yan Mansion, and she was now in a state where her grandmother didn't love her uncle and didn't love her. Wen Changsu was punished and grounded, she had no one to care about herself, which was more uncomfortable than beating her and scolding her, and she felt that she was in a state of isolation and helplessness. She didn't know what else she could do? Going to school in the family school, she always felt that even the Liu family sisters and the Shen family sisters were laughing at her behind her back; Walking around the courtyard, I felt that the servants were whispering behind my back.

Yan Zeyin has been immersed in the pain of breaking with Mu Qin recently, and Bai Ziyan is dead, so the grievances and entanglements between the two of them are even more unclear. He originally wanted to take this opportunity to go to the Mu family again and talk to Mu Qin about this matter again, but he was afraid that his reckless behavior would bring trouble to the Yan family, after all, the master mother asked them not to talk nonsense when they went out.

Just when Yan Zeyin was so hesitant, there was an accident on the Mu family's side.

The reason is that Xu Moqing hasn't seen Mu Qin for a long time, and Mu Qin often came to the Yan family to visit him before, but after Qi Yan's incident, she came to the Yan family very few times. Recently, he didn't come to the door once. Xu Moqing couldn't sit still, so he sent Qiusheng to the Mu family to invite, but who expected that the door of the Mu family was closed, and no one responded after knocking several times.

Qiusheng didn't know why he could only come back to recover his life, Xu Moqing didn't think about it badly at first, until the third princess sent someone to invite Xu Moqing over. When he went, he was still smiling, just thinking that the third sister taught him to walk around casually in the past, and when he walked out of the courtyard, he saw Yan Zeyin wandering alone in the courtyard, so he took Yan Zeyin with him, and kept saying that he would take Brother Zeyin outside to breathe.

But when he arrived at the Third Princess's Mansion, Xu Moqing was completely dumbfounded, and he felt heartbroken with Yan Zeyin.

It turned out that Mu Qin's mother, Mu Dai, was corrupt and bribed, and was involved in a book by the officials below, which was close to the empress's case. The amount, number of bribes, and time of bribes are carefully recorded. The empress was furious and sent people to investigate, not wanting to be really found out, just like what was said in the excerpt.

This Mu Dai is a crime against the wind, and the amount of greed is still very large, and she can't hold it up and down, so she was lifted up and became the target of the court. If Mu Dai has no one behind her, it would be fine, but she was recommended by Xu Moqing to the third princess, and this matter naturally implicated the third princess.

The empress first summoned the third princess to the palace and scolded her fiercely, but it was true that the third princess did not participate in it, so she got a trace of comfort. This Mudai will be punished severely, and even if the sin does not lead to death, he will be sent to the frontier. At first, I thought that this matter would come to an end, but I never thought that Mu Dai's case had not been completely concluded, and the news that Mu Rong had killed an old male concubine from the previous dynasty came out from the Tai Hospital.

The Mu family has completely suffered, and it is really a disaster! Mu Rong tried his best to defend himself and still couldn't escape the blame, even if the old male concubine did not die directly because of her, but also because she died indirectly. Mu Rong complained bitterly, but he had already been decided by the officials. In less than a few days, the mother and daughter of the Mu family had accidents one after another, how could this Mu family escape this catastrophe?

In the end, Mu Dai and Mu Rong were all cut off their official positions and assigned to the frontier, and the entire Mu family was raided, and the trees fell and scattered overnight. Duan and Mu Qin were expelled from Fengcheng, Kyoto, and were not allowed to take another half step in immortality.

Xu Moqing couldn't believe what Xu Zhongqing said, Yan Zeyin had already covered her chest in pain.

"Ninth brother, this time the third sister can't do anything, and she can't help." Xu Zhongqing frowned and said.

Xu Moqing precipitated for a while, and then said: "If it weren't for the mediation of the third sister, I'm afraid that Mu Dai and Mu Rong would have died a long time ago...... I know that the third sister did her best. ”

The eldest concubine Li Enhe spoke for the third princess, "Your Royal Highness Nine doesn't know, the Mu family has killed the third princess this time......

"Enhe, don't talk nonsense!" Xu Zhongqing stopped him.

Seeing this, Xu Moqing understood that the accident of the Mu family must have implicated Xu Zhongqing a lot, after all, Mu Dai was under the third princess. And Mu Dai was able to enter the door of the third princess, or he made a recommendation from it. But with his understanding of the Mu family, it is still very possible for Mu Dai to be corrupt and take bribes, but he can't believe that Mu Rong healed the dead.

"Third sister, can't the Mu family's series of cases be overturned?" Xu Moqing asked cautiously.

Xu Zhongqing smiled meaningfully, "My ninth brother, now is the best ending, if the case is overturned, it will inevitably be worse, if you don't get Mu Dai's life, you will really move, and their Mu family will also be implicated." Although he has no family property and official position now, he has managed to save his life, and he is not afraid of no firewood in the green mountains! ”

"That'...... What about Mu Qin and her? Why did she leave in such a hurry, and she didn't give it to me...... Didn't you come to the Yan family to resign to His Royal Highness the Nine? Yan Zeyin's tone was full of resentment.

"Resignation? If she leaves a moment later, she will be arrested and go to the frontier with her mother and sister, where will there be time to quit? Xu Zhongqing said faintly.

"The three princesses know ......"

Yan Zeyin hadn't asked yet, Xu Moqing had stopped him in time.

"Brother Ze, don't be rude!"

Xu Zhongqing smiled silently, "Ninth brother, it's okay. This kid wants to know the whereabouts of the Mu family's father and daughter, right? ”

Yan Zeyin nodded slightly shyly, and Xu Zhongqing persuaded: "Ze boy, don't say that I don't know the whereabouts of their Mu family, even if I know it, I won't tell you." Your Yan family is about to marry the Liu family, and you won't have anything to do with the Mu family in the future, which is beneficial to your Yan family, the Liu family, and His Royal Highness the Nine, do you understand? ”

"I'm ......" Yan Zeyin's eyes were flushed.

Why not Xu Moqing? Mu Qin has been his companion for many years, and many miserable days in the imperial city have been accompanied by Mu Qin. But now she disappeared so suddenly, and they didn't even have a chance to say goodbye to each other.

"Third sister, I understand. Because I am friendly with Qin Jun, Zedi just can't accept it for a while. After I go back, I will enlighten him, please rest assured that the third sister will be relieved. ”

"That's good. It is not a glorious thing to be able to say less about this matter when you return to the house. The relationship with the Mu family is completely broken here, and the ninth brother must keep it in mind. ”

"Mo Qing remember."

Xu Moqing and Yan Zeyin left the princess's mansion sadly and angrily, and the third princess sent them to the door as usual, and was relieved to see the two of them sitting in the sedan chair. But Xu Moqing suddenly jumped off the sedan chair and ran in front of Xu Zhongqing.

"Ninth brother, what else do you have to do?" Xu Zhongqing asked.

Xu Moqing looked at Li Enhe, who was standing aside, and showed that he wanted to speak and stopped. Li Enhe was so smart that he hurriedly excused himself to leave, leaving room for their sister and brother to speak.

"Third sister......" Xu Moqing lowered her voice, "Third sister, you tell me the truth, stumbling over the Mu family is the disadvantage that 'others' gave you, right?" Someone can't see you gaining power, and they will make an example of you, right? ”

Xu Zhongqing's eyes showed a hint of cunning, she approached Xu Moqing's ear, and said softly: "Moqing, you have finally grown up." So, the third sister asks you, are you standing with the third sister? ”

"Third sister! You know Mo Qing's heart best! Xu Moqing said something that reassured Xu Zhongqing.

I don't kill Beren, but Beren dies because of me. Xu Moqing should have understood this truth a long time ago......
