Chapter 123: Dinner

Looking at Mu Qiange's back in the distance, the Huang Wu steward couldn't help but say, "Hmph, you alone are also fighting with us." After Mu Qiange walked out of the gate of the Yellow Palace, it was already the sun about to set, and she came to Zhang De, the coachman who was waiting for her outside the door, and said loudly: "Zhang De, I'm back." ”

Zhang De, who was sleeping on the carriage, heard a familiar voice, and immediately raised his head to see that it was actually Mu Qiange, he was stunned for a moment, and then said to Mu Qiange: "Lord Ning, you are really amazing, you came back safely." ”

Mu Qiange snorted at the coachman Zhang De and said, "Of course, I went to the palace to handle the case for the emperor, who of them dares to arrest me?" The coachman Zhang De patted his head and said, "So that's the case, Lord Ning, your palace is handling cases for Su Xiaohuang." ”

Mu Qiange got into the carriage and said to him: "Of course I look, otherwise I wouldn't have run into the palace casually and played." The coachman Zhang De nodded at Mu Qiange, then started the carriage and said, "Lord Ning, where are we going now?" ”

Mu Qiange hesitated in the carriage and said to him, "Then let's go back to Xiangfu." The coachman, Zhang De, turned the front of the car and said to Mu Qiange: "Yes, Lord Ning, let's set off and return to Ningfu." ”

Half an hour passed, and the coachman Zhang De said to Mu Qiange, who was sitting in the carriage: "Lord Ning's Prime Minister's Mansion has arrived, please get off the car." Mu Qiange, who was in a daze on the carriage, heard the coachman Zhang De shouting, and then immediately moved his body, and then jumped down from it.

At this time, the sun had completely set, and the sky was gradually darkening, after Mu Qiange entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, Liu Wu immediately followed and said to Mu Qiange: "Son, where did you go in the afternoon?" ”

Mu Qiange looked at Liu Wu and smiled and said, "I went to the palace in the afternoon. Liu Wu then said to Mu Qiange: "What is the son doing in the palace?" The emperor didn't summon you today? Mu Qiange said to Liu Wu's face: "How stupid are you, I'm going to the palace to investigate the case." ”

Liu Wu thought for a while, and then said to Mu Qiange: "The prince doesn't bring Qing'er with him when he goes to the palace." Mu Qiange waved his hand at her and said, "Don't mention it, the palace is very heavily guarded, and ordinary people can't enter, I have been basking in the sun at the gate of the palace all afternoon." ”

Liu Wu hurriedly said to Mu Qiange: "There is such a thing, don't they know that you are the emperor's hand-picked Qincha to investigate the case?" Mu Qiange waved at Liu Wu again and said, "I know what, it's still difficult for me everywhere." ”

As he spoke, Mu Qiange walked back to the room where he lived, and then said to Liu Wu: "Qing'er." I'm tired and need to take a break, so you can go out first. Liu Wu looked at Mu Qiange who was really tired, so he turned around and closed the door and retreated.

Mu Qiange sat in the room for a while, looking at a person on the wall in a quiet daze, she didn't know how to check the next one, and suddenly fell asleep after thinking about it.

After a while, there was a sudden knock on the door, Mu Qiange was woken up, and shouted impatiently outside the house: "Who is knocking at my door?" At this time, a familiar voice suddenly came, and Mu Qiange listened to the person's voice as if it was Liu Huahua.

She got up a little reluctantly, walked slowly towards the door, then opened the door, and said impatiently to the beautiful woman at the door: "What is the matter with you coming to me?"

Mu Qiange said in an extremely impatient tone to the beautifully dressed woman outside the door, and the woman frowned and whispered to Mu Qiange: "Brother Ning, the second aunt called you to dinner." ”

Mu Qiange looked at the sky outside and remembered that he hadn't eaten dinner yet, and his mood couldn't help but change when he looked at Liu Huahua and said, "Oh, you're here to ask me to go to dinner, not to mention that I almost forgot about it." ”

Liu Huahua watched Mu Qiange's tone get better, and then said to her softly: "Brother Ning, hurry up, let's go to the lobby to eat together." ”

Mu Qiange looked at Liu Huahua's delicate little face and couldn't help but say, "Sister Shui Dai, why are you walking so close to me?" Liu Huahua glanced at Mu Qiange and said, "What's the matter, Brother Ning, if it doesn't work, I'll go over and wait for you first, you come over quickly." ”

Mu Qiange pondered for a while, then closed the door of his room, took Liu Huahua's white and tender little hand and said, "Okay, let's go to dinner together." Liu Huahua said a little embarrassed: "Brother Ning, it's not good to hold hands like this in the Prime Minister's Mansion, let's go over and eat together." ”

Mu Qiange was stunned for a moment, and also felt that what Liu Huahua said was good, it was good, there were so many back and forth in the Xiangfu, and it was always not too good to be seen, so she walked quickly towards the hall of the Xiangfu together.

When he arrived in the hall, Mu Qiange couldn't help but have an appetite again when he looked at the dishes on the table, and quickly found a seat, then sat down, and then picked up the chopsticks and wanted to eat.

At this time, the second aunt who was sitting in the center of the dining table suddenly said to her: "Mu Qiange, where are you going in the afternoon, I don't see your figure in the house." Mu Qiange put back the hand that was holding the vegetables, paused, and said to the second aunt: "Oh, second aunt, I went to the palace to investigate the case in the afternoon." ”

The second aunt looked at Mu Qiange and said anxiously: "Then did you find anything when you went to the palace to investigate the case in the afternoon?" Mu Qiange thought for a while and whispered to the second aunt: "Oh, I haven't eaten anything from the second aunt, I checked the entry and exit records of the palace gate, and I also went to the morgue to see the two masked corpses, but there is no clue at all." ”

The second aunt's face sank and said to Mu Qiange: "Then what do you think is suspicious?" Mu Qiange thought for a while, and then said to the second aunt: "There are suspicious places, but I have no evidence." ”

The second aunt immediately said loudly to Mu Qiange: "What is suspicious about Mu Qiange, you said it?" Mu Qiange looked at the food on the table and said unhurriedly: "Of course the second aunt has it, for example, the Huang Wu steward who guards the gate of the palace, I think he is quite suspicious." ”

The second aunt looked at her and said suspiciously: "Mu Qiange, you see where the royal guard Huang is suspicious." Mu Qiange continued to say unhurriedly: "The second aunt is like this, this guard of the palace gate Huang is in charge, he is in charge of the entry and exit records of the palace personnel that day, I asked him several questions, and he shirked and said that he has no problem with this pass." ”

The second aunt looked at Mu Qiange and continued: "Is there anything else worth your doubts about the yellow steward?" Mu Qiange looked at the second aunt and replied quickly: "I think that the yellow steward who guarded the gate showed me that he had done something in the palace gate entry and exit records on that day. ”

The second aunt continued to say to Mu Qiange suspiciously: "You mean that Lord Huang gave you a record of the entrance and exit of the palace gate, and he did something to do it?" Mu Qiange looked at the second aunt with a firm gaze and said: "Yes, second aunt, on the booklet given to me by the Huang Steward, the entry and exit records seem to have been modified, but I can't come up with evidence to prove that he is fraudulent." ”

The second aunt couldn't help but pale a little when she heard this, and then said to Mu Qiange: "The affairs in the palace are not easy for Lord Youxiang to manage, and many of the people in it are also something we can't afford to offend." ”

Mu Qiange looked at the pale face of the second aunt, and then said comfortingly: "Second aunt, don't be sad, I will definitely find a way to save Lord Youxiang from the cell." The second aunt's pale face said to herself without change: "The things in the palace, we can't afford to touch it, and we can't afford to provoke it, how can we let Xiangye be so unlucky." ”

Mu Qiange continued to say comfortingly to the second aunt: "Second aunt, I also think that Youxiang was framed by someone, but now I just can't find out who that person is for the time being, but you have to believe that I Mu Qiange can find out that." ”

Hearing Mu Qiange's assurance, the second aunt's pale face gradually calmed down, and then said softly to Mu Qiange: "Okay, let's not talk about it first, eat first." Mu Qiange looked at the table full of food and said to the second aunt: "Well, you guys should eat quickly, I'm welcome." ”

The second aunt nodded at Mu Qiange and said, "You eat quickly, let's start eating too." Then I saw Mu Qiange pick up the chopsticks in her right hand and the bowl in her left hand, and sandwich the good dishes on the table, and the second aunt on the side couldn't help but want to reprimand Mu Qiange again, asking her to eat decently and behave in a proper manner.

However, after she looked at Mu Qiange and thought about it, she didn't speak, she sandwiched a piece of fish and ate it slowly, and Liu Huahua also sandwiched some green vegetables and ate it slowly. Mu Qiange was indeed hungry this night, what did she think was delicious, so she put it into her bowl vigorously, and everyone in the hall who watched was stunned, thinking to themselves, this Mu Qiange has changed too much recently, can it be so eaten?

Mu Qiange didn't estimate that much, she just ate casually, she didn't want to miss the opportunity to have a good meal.

After almost half an hour, Mu Qiange finally had her fill, she patted her stomach and said to the second aunt: "Then I'm full, go out for a walk first." The second aunt had already finished eating, and she was waiting for her, and when she saw Mu Qiange say this, she nodded at her helplessly.

Then after watching Mu Qiange turn around and leave, the second aunt said loudly to everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion: "This Mu Qiange is really a rice bucket, as if he has never seen food." ”

Liu Huahua, who was on the side, whispered to the second aunt: "Second aunt, don't talk about Brother Ning like that, of course she can eat, and when she is full, she can help rescue Xiangye." ”
