Chapter 43 Knowing the Righteousness
"Miss." Biyue was embarrassed to stop Mu Yu, and there were thousands of words around her mouth, but she didn't dare to say it.
Mu Yu didn't know Biyue's thoughts, but she was worried about her safety, "It's okay, with Master Xie here, you don't have to worry." ”
Biyue jumped to her feet anxiously, it was precisely because of Master Xie's presence that she was worried!
But Xie Chongning was standing aside, and Biyue couldn't say much, so she could only watch her miss leave with Master Xie.
Mu Yu followed Xie Chongning all the way to the study, thinking carefully about how to speak, Xie Chongning walked into the study first, she didn't have time to lift her feet, she stumbled on the threshold all of a sudden, and rushed forward.
As soon as Xie Chongning turned around, he was pounced on by Mu Yu. Xie Chongning subconsciously reached out to hug Mu Yu, his body stiffened, and his long arms wrapped around the slender waist in his arms.
Mu Yu's little ears were red, and he only felt that his mind was blank for a moment, so he suddenly pushed Xie Chongning away, straightened out his clothes in a panic, and apologized shyly, "Lord Xie, I'm sorry, I didn't look at the road and accidentally bumped into you." ”
"No problem." Xie Chongning replied in a deep voice, with a coldness in his tone that could not be ignored.
Xie Chongning was originally a cold character, Mu Yu knew that he didn't like others to touch him, so he blamed himself for being distracted just now and rushed into someone's arms.
He didn't want to see the Luanping Marquis Mansion, and he didn't know if there was room for maneuver in what he said today, Mu Yu cramped his little feet together, lowered his head and said gracefully, "Lord Xie, I came today because I have something important to look for you." ”
I saw Xie Chongning lifting his robe and sitting at the desk, "What's the matter?" ”
"I heard that Dali Temple recently found an incident about a missing person, and it seems to be related to my second uncle." Mu's face gradually became serious, and she looked up at Xie Chongning, but Xie Chongning's eyes were deep and she couldn't see what kind of attitude it was.
Mu Yan continued to speak uneasily, "Actually, I came today precisely because I found out that the second uncle has been abnormal recently. ”
"Miss Mu said to hear it." Xie Chongning nodded, signaling that he was listening.
"Recently, the second uncle seems to have some money, and the second room has always been very careful, but in the past six months, the subordinates who have served in the second room have received a lot of rewards."
Mu Yu secretly glanced at the serious Xie Chongning, and continued, "And there are rumors of haunting in the mansion. I categorically don't believe in this haunting, but there really are ghosts in these two rooms. ”
The ghost in her mouth is not a ghost of a ghost, but a person. If the human heart is not right, what is the difference between it and a ghost sometimes?
"Haunted?" Xie Chongning frowned.
"Someone in the house saw a ghost fire under the tree in the second room, I once saw it in a picture book, and ghost fire usually appears in places with corpses."
Mu Yu took a deep breath, "If it's me thinking too much, that's the best, but if it's true, the Luanping Marquis Mansion will definitely not shield such a person." ”
"Miss Mu understands righteousness." Xie Chongning praised lukewarmly, but his attitude made Mu Yu feel that he didn't take it to heart at all.
"If there is anything that Lord Xie needs to cooperate, I will definitely tell my father to cooperate with your work as much as possible." Xie Chongning's attitude was too bland, and Mu Yu's heart was hanging, but he couldn't ask more.
It seems that this matter has to be told to the eldest brother and father, and let the eldest brother and father come forward.
Mu Yu took a step back and bowed to Xie Chongning, "If you are so disturbed, Lord Xie, then I will go back first." ”
"I've heard about Second Master Mu, I won't let go of the murderer, but I won't implicate innocent people, you don't have to worry too much." Seeing that Mu Yu had already stepped out of the door with one foot, Xie Chongning opened his thin lips lightly.
Mu Yu, who was carrying his steps, paused, retracted his foot, and bowed deeply to Xie Chongning, in fact, after so many years in the Luanping Marquis Mansion, it was not good to treat Xie Chongning, she knew.
If Xie Chongning was selfish, it would be understandable to seize such a handle as the Luanping Marquis Mansion at this time, she had nothing to say.
But God gave her a chance to be reborn, Mu Yu really didn't want to give up, then Mu Erye did something that lost her conscience, after all, it had nothing to do with their big house, and she had no reason to pay for other people's mistakes.
"Thank you, sir."
Mu Yu thanked him repeatedly, Xie Chongning pinched the ink block with his long fingers, stared at the door with dark eyes and shook his head, and when he came back to his senses, he found that his white fingertips were stained with jet-black ink at some point.
Biyue stood at the door waiting anxiously, but she didn't want to bump into the eldest young master, she hurriedly turned her back, and only prayed that the eldest young master who passed by the door would not recognize herself.
Mu Yi has been on an errand in Dali Temple for a few days, and his position is Dali Temple, which happens to be Lin Changjin's subordinate, and Lin Changjin gives him easy work, so Mu Yi is very idle.
Mu Yi walked to the door and saw his carriage at a glance, Biyue was standing next to the carriage, with her back to herself, "Biyue, why are you here?" Could it be that a rumor is coming? ”
Mu Yi was overjoyed and walked to the carriage, the carriage on this house is at the gate of Dali Temple, Biyue is Mu Yu's close maid, not Mu Yu is here, who else can it be.
"Ahh Gentleman. Biyue lowered her head and avoided Mu Yi's eyes in a panic.
"Why is it only you, and the rumor is still in the carriage?" Mu Yi made a gesture to lift the curtain of the carriage.
Biyue shook her head slightly, "Miss has already gone in, let me wait outside Dali Temple." ”
"Yu'er came to me at this time, is there something urgent at home?" It's no wonder that Mu Yi would ask like this, Mu Yu is a girl's family, and it is impossible to deal with Dali Temple, so he feels that Mu Yu must be looking for him.
Bi Yue's face was embarrassed, and she continued to shake her head and said, "Young Master, Miss is not here to find you. ”
"Didn't you come to me? Could it be that he is looking for Changjin? "Mu Yi is an informal person, if there are outsiders, he will call Lin Changjin Lord Lin, but when facing acquaintances, Lin Changjin is just a younger brother who is four years younger than him.
"A girl's family should be more reserved, although I also like Changjin's kid, but girls must not be too active."
Biyue's face was even more ugly, she licked her lips nervously, and said cautiously, "Young Master, Miss is here to find Master Xie." ”
"What?" Mu Yi was taken aback, and his tone was a few degrees higher, "What did the rumor come to him for?" Why don't you stop it? ”
"What's the matter?" Mu Yu looked at his eldest brother with his hands on his hips, and felt funny, "Big brother, I have something to do, okay, don't be so nervous, it just so happens that you are here, and I also have something to say to you." ”
"What can't you say at home? A person who comes to Dali Temple, if he lets others see it, how bad it is. Mu Yi disagreed, grabbed her sister's slender wrist with her big hand, and sent her to the carriage.
After Mu Yu sat down, Mu Yi also squeezed in, "Say, what the hell are you running to Dali Temple?" As if Mu Yu didn't give a valid reason, he wouldn't go down.
"Big brother, have you heard of the disappearance of people outside the capital?" Mu Yu asked. Since Mu Yi is on duty in Dali Temple, he should know.
"I know, I also heard that this matter is related to the second uncle."
"Big brother, you know?" Mu Yu was shocked, since my brother knew so much about it, why didn't he react? "Then haven't you heard about the haunting of the house? Didn't notice the abnormality of the second uncle? ”
Mu Yi frowned, his face was solemn, and he made a silent gesture to Mu Yu, "I'll tell you about this when I go back, it's inconvenient to talk about these things at the gate of Dali Temple." ”
In the evening, Mu Yi knocked on Mu Yu's door, and the two sat at the table with serious faces, but they felt like they were being tried.
"You talked to me about the second uncle during the day, how do you know that the second uncle is abnormal?" Mu Yi asked first.
"I listened to what they told me." Mu Yu recounted what he said to Xie Chongning during the day, "I went to Lord Xie today to tell him about this matter, if the second uncle really did something hurtful outside, the rest of us in the Luanping Marquis Mansion are innocent and cannot be implicated by him." ”
Hearing that Mu Yu was only asked from his subordinates, and he was not in danger, Mu Yi was also relieved.
"Then how did Xie Chongning answer you?"
"He promised me that he would not implicate innocent people in the Luanping Marquis Mansion." Mu Yu relayed Xie Chongning's words, "It's just that I think we should have prepared early." ”
Although Xie Chongning promised not to implicate the innocent in the mansion, this human trafficking, killing people and hiding corpses is definitely not a trivial matter, and the Luanping Marquis Mansion has 50,000 elite soldiers, and it is difficult to guarantee that the emperor will not make any moves.
Mu Yi pondered for a moment, "What you said, in fact, my father and I also know it, but we have not been silent, I didn't expect you, this girl, to secretly investigate behind our backs." ”
After Mu Yu was stunned for a short time, he also reacted, his father had been in the officialdom for so many years, and the second uncle suddenly made a generous move, how could his father not find out, it seems that he is too exaggerated.
"Hey, hey." Mu Yu had nothing to refute, and embarrassedly poured himself a cup of tea and brought it to his mouth.
"I also know that you are worried about your family and will not blame you. But you must discuss with us in the future, and don't act on your own in a hurry. ”
Mu Yu obediently bit the edge of the teacup and nodded hurriedly, "No, I won't be so reckless in the future." ”
"But Xie Chongning's answer, I can't think of it." If Second Master Mu really loses his conscience, the entire Mu family will be implicated, the emperor will cut the vassal and cut the marquis's heart, Xie Chongning will do things for the emperor, and he should not let go of the Mu family.
But how could Xie Chongning have such a promise to Yu'er? Could it be that it is just to bluff the rumors? If this is the case, then he must not let Yu'er have any contact with Xie Chongning again.
"In short, you can't believe Xie Chongning's words, and don't deal with him in the future." Mu Yi cut the railway.
"Big brother, Master Mu has a cold temperament, but he is not a person who promises others easily, you are too prejudiced against him." Although Mu Yu knew that Xie Chongning had such a promise, even if there was pressure from the emperor, he would not easily break his promise, and at worst, he would help the Luanping Marquis Mansion.
