Chapter 24: The Chess Pieces
Chu Yu looked at Mu Jing's expression, wanting to find a flaw in it, but found that he didn't find anything unusual.
"See for yourself." Chu Yu took the book on the table and threw it in front of Mu Jing. At this time, Chu Yu couldn't see any expression on his face, but he still didn't want to believe that this was the truth.
Mu Jing looked at the folds that fell at his feet and scattered, the fonts on them were all red fonts, picking up the folds, Mu Jing looked at the contents inside, his eyes widened more and more, impossible.
How could she be an undercover agent for the crown prince? Two years ago, it was really the prince who ordered Imperial Doctor Yang to develop poison to poison her, and then sent her to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and then mixed the marriage between her and the Seventh Prince into the Yuwang Mansion.
She didn't know the prince at all, unless the memories of the two years lost by the original owner were related to the prince. Could it be that she was really a pawn of the prince, but she was killed by Mu Kite?
"What else do you have to say?" Looking at Mu Jing's expression, it seemed that she really had nothing to do with the prince, whether she was too good at disguise or really had nothing to do with the prince. But since Mu Jing entered the palace, there have been more incidents, and this has to make him suspicious.
"Maybe I used to be a pawn of the prince, but now I am me, not anyone's pawn." Mu Jing raised the fold and looked at Chu Yu with a determined expression on his face.
"I'll prove my innocence." Mu Jing looked at Chu Yu and didn't reply, naturally she probably knew that Chu Yu really didn't believe her, which couldn't help but make her a little sad, but it didn't matter, she would find out the truth to prove her innocence.
"Okay, I'll wait." Chu Yu thought for a moment and looked at Mu Jing. hoped that Mu Jing was telling the truth, but she had to wonder if she wanted to win his trust at the moment. Now we can only take one step at a time, and we can't be in a hurry.
"Farewell." Mu Jing threw the fold to Chu Yu, then turned around and opened the door and walked out.
Return to Wenxing Temple.
Lan'er was already guarding the door at this time, waiting for Mu Jing's return.
Lan'er saw that Mu Jing was not in a good mood when she came back from the palace, and immediately stepped forward and asked with a worried gesture.
Princess, what's going on.
"Lan'er, let's go out for a walk today." Mu Jing saw Lan'er's worries, so he might as well go out and check the Imperial Doctor Yang's mansion. Perfect for shopping.
On the street, two men shuttled, one blue and one gray, one tall and one short, walking towards Imperial Doctor Yang's mansion with a clear purpose.
Arriving at the door of Imperial Physician Yang's mansion, Mu Jing slowed down and looked at the doorman guarding the door. These doormen, after being inquired by the roadside stalls, are the prince's personal guards.
How did he become the prince's personal guard? Didn't the emperor say that Li Linzhi would investigate?
Mu Jing's mind suddenly understood, why did he forget this person? This guy must know what happened last night.
"Lan'er, let's go!" Mu Jing pulled Lan'er and walked towards Li Lin's mansion.
Walking to Li Linzhi's mansion, I was looking for some excuse to go in, but I didn't expect to just arrive at the door.
"Catch the thief!" Suddenly, a woman exclaimed.
Mu Jing's eyes were quick, he turned around quickly, and reached out to grab the thief.
"Fuck off, nosy." The thief pushed Mu Jing away with anger on his face.
This person is a big man, of course he is not an opponent, but it is not necessarily true if he uses medicine. Mu Jing dodged, took out a silver needle, and stabbed it at the thief.
The thief who was still dancing his teeth and claws, the left hand he found was suddenly weak, and then he picked up his right hand and hit Mu Jing's body, only to feel a pain, and his right hand was also weak, it seemed that he had underestimated the kid in front of him, and he was about to run away, but suddenly his butt hurt, and his feet were weak.
"Uncle, spare your life, uncle, spare your life." The thief was terrified, and his legs fell to his knees, crying out for mercy and help.
Mu Jing stretched out his hand, "Silver!" The eyes swept the thief coldly, and the thief immediately took out the silver he had just snatched and handed it over obediently, although he was very reluctant in his heart, but he was even more afraid of the person in front of him, and it was important to save his life.
Then the woman who chased after her, saw Mu Jing's heroic posture of catching the thief, and immediately had a little peach heart in her eyes. Just now, the fortune teller said that she would meet her true destiny later, but she didn't believe it, and at this time, the thief stole her silver taels. How she believed it then, but she believed it now.
"Don't get out of here yet." Mu Jing took the silver two and glanced at the thief coldly, and the thief immediately hurried away.
"Thank you, Childe." Suddenly, a woman flashed in front of her and jumped her, but she always felt that this woman was a little familiar, but she couldn't tell where she had been saved.
"Here, you're welcome." Mu Jing handed the silver taels to the girl, raised his feet and prepared to walk towards the Li Mansion.
"Childe, wait, I don't know Childe's surname, the little girl is good for her to come to the door to thank you." The woman stopped Mu Jing's footsteps and said to Mu Jing's back.
"This ......" No need, Mu Jing didn't finish speaking, and he heard a voice.
"Yue'er, why are you here?"
Looking up, it was Li Linzhi, and he looked at this girl again, could it be? Sibling. Mu Jing's little brain turned around, and God helped me.
"Brother, long time no see." Li Yuezhi turned her head and saw that it was her brother.
And Mu Jing happened to enter the Li Mansion as Li Yuezhi's.
After some greetings, Li Yuezhi is Li Linzhi's biological sister, his parents died when he was a child, and the family was fostered in his uncle's house, and after he marched to fight, he became an official in the court, and wanted to take his uncle's family into Beijing many times, but his uncle was unwilling to enter, and his sister was still young, and he was afraid that he would not take good care of him, so he had not entered the capital. However, every summer, Li Yuezhi would go to the capital to live for a few months before going back.
"Childe, you haven't told me your name yet?" Li Yuezhi's eyes lit up and looked at Mu Jing, her face full of shyness.
"Below, Mu Zhuqing." Mu Jing rolled his eyes and said a little frustratedly.
"You have a nice name." Li Yue smiled, and her two eyes narrowed into a line.
"Next, I am looking for Manager Li to have some personal matters that need to be understood." Mu Jing didn't have time to pay attention to Li Yuezhi, but turned around and said to Li Linzhi.
"Huh?" Li Linzhi suddenly looked at Mu Jing suspiciously, always feeling where he had seen her, but he couldn't remember where he had seen her.
Until......
Li Linzhi took her into the study, and Mu Jing took a deep breath.
"Manager Li, it's me!" Mu Jing
"Who are you?" Li Linzhi suddenly became vigilant and looked at Mu Jing.
"The Seventh Princess." was originally vigilant, but became more vigilant, because the seventh prince told him to be careful of the seventh princess, why? I didn't say it explicitly.
"What's the matter?"
"Why are all the people guarding the door of Imperial Physician Yang's mansion the prince? And who found it. Mu Jing first had to figure out these things first, and then start step by step.
"The prince told you everything, did he ask you to come to me?" Li Linzhi looked at Mu Jing suspiciously? Now his mind is a little confused.
"It's just that he didn't tell me, I remember that the emperor didn't ask you to secretly investigate the matter of Imperial Doctor Yang, and wanted to ask how the situation was used."
Mu Jing said slowly, and glanced at Li Linzhi, who was also vigilant against him, and she was a little angry.
"You don't think there's something wrong with me, do you?"
