Chapter 250
When Huo Shi returned to Mu Ruoyu's room, what he saw was her daughter lying on the bed with an expressionless face. At this moment, her heart hurt like a knife.
"Yu'er, I sent someone out to inquire. In a few days, Cuiyun Lou will launch an updated style. Huo prayed: "Let's go another day, okay?" ”
Mu Ruoyu turned a deaf ear, still staring intently at the bed tent above his head.
Huo Shi gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "I heard the news of the prince." ”
Her words successfully attracted Mu Ruoyu's attention. Mu Ruoyu sat up slowly, looked at Huo Shi with burning eyes, and asked, "Mother, what have you found?" ”
Huo's heart was dripping blood, but she didn't dare to show it in front of Mu Ruoyu, she was worried that it would scare her daughter who had finally spoken into her shell again.
"I heard that the ...... Emperor" Seeing Mu Ruoyu smiling, Huo Shi hurriedly changed his words: "Qu family, the eldest master entered the prince's mansion and met the prince. "The beginning is made up, and the rest is not so difficult to speak.
"A few days ago, not even a fly was allowed in the Prince's Mansion. Now, the Qu family can go in to see the prince, which is a great thing. This shows that His Majesty is already preparing to wash away the grievances of the crown prince. ”
Mu Ruoyu was suspicious: "Is this true?" ”
"Yes." Huo nodded vigorously.
Seeing this, Mu Ruoyu finally let go of the doubts in her heart.
Huo Shi was also busy: "Yu'er, your father thinks we should wait and see for a while." So, he won't let you go out for the time being. My mother will continue to ask you about the news. Huo Shi said softly: "Let's not go out yet, okay?" ”
Mu Ruoyu lowered her head and thought for a moment, and asked, "Will that mother still look at others for me?" ”
"No, no." Huo Shi hurriedly shook his head and said.
"Okay, I promise."
Huo Shi breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, after she saw Mu Ruoyu's pale face. and cautiously told her to let her eat well in the future. In this way, you can have a good body, and you can wait for the day when the prince wrongs Zhaoxue.
Mu Ruoyu was happy in her heart, and happily agreed.
Huo still had a lot of things to say to Mu Ruoyu in her heart, but she knew that an inch would not lead to a good result. Therefore, she did not continue to make her own claims.
Yu'er, my mother is doing this for your own good. In the future, if you know all this, don't blame your mother. Mother is really, I can't lose you anymore. Huo closed his eyes and hid the guilt in his eyes.
"Mother will leave first, I will send you the news from outside soon, don't worry."
Mu Ruoyu nodded obediently in response.
"What about the son?" Out of the courtyard, Huo asked in a low voice.
The maid on the side replied: "Madam, the prince has left the house and has not come back yet." ”
"Tell me to go down, and when I see the prince come back, let him come to see me."
"Yes."
At this moment, Mu Lingyun had just met Zhuo Jinan.
"Why are you calling me in such a hurry?"
Zhuo Jinan took a deep breath and saw that Mu Lingyun's face was full of suspicion, and he did not move with him. He said, "You have listened to what I said next, but don't be afraid. ”
"Say it."
"The person who kidnapped you has met with Princess Wuyang." Zhuo Jin'an said firmly.
"W-how is this possible?" Mu Lingyun's calm face began to crack, and he didn't understand what the relationship between the two was.
Zhuo Jinan was very satisfied with Mu Lingyun's reaction, and he said in his heart, I haven't said anything more powerful.
"There is nothing impossible, this matter ended with Yu Jiazhaoxue in the end. If Princess Wuyang didn't intervene in this matter, it would be strange. ”
Mu Lingyun frowned and looked at Zhuo Jin'an, "What else, don't hide it, let's talk about it together." ”
"Well, I thought I could hide it from you."
Mu Lingyun chuckled in his heart, it seemed that what he was going to say next would scare him.
"That person has also been to the National Teacher's Mansion. Moreover, it is said that he was personally met by the national teacher. Zhuo Jinan said in a low voice.
Could this be why he was kidnapped? Because they saw him on the way to the National Teacher's Mansion, they kidnapped him to prevent him from doing anything bad.
"Is that all?" Mu Lingyun asked.
Zhuo Jinan coughed dryly and said, "No." Actually, I made a guess about the identity of that person. ”
"Do you want to say that Princess Wuyang kidnapped me?"
Zhuo Jinan shook his head vigorously.
Mu Lingyun frowned slightly, looking at him puzzled. If it's not Princess Wuyang, who else will it be?
"The day before yesterday, I heard my dad say something."
Mu Lingyun didn't interrupt him, nor did he ask questions, he just listened quietly, and thought in his heart about what this matter would have to do with them.
"My father said that before Ruoyu, you had a child in your family."
Mu Lingyun stood in place as if he had been struck by lightning, his mind was in chaos and he couldn't think.
Zhuo Jinan stopped and waited quietly for Mu Lingyun to ask him a question. At the beginning, when he heard about this, he was also shocked.
After a long while, Mu Lingyun reacted, he took a deep breath and said, "Go on." ”
"My dad said it didn't seem like the child was born full-term." Zhuo Jinan thought for a while and said, "He didn't explain how many months he was born." Anyway, after the child was born, he was declared dead. ”
"No way, we don't have ...... in our house"
Zhuo Jinan gave him one, and I still have a look that I haven't said.
Mu Lingyun pinched himself hard, and after he calmed down, he let him continue.
"My father said that it must have been after the birth of the child, and he had seen several people leaving with a wooden box at the back door of the Guogong Mansion. Inside, there was a faint strange sound. Zhuo Jinan sighed: "After many years, he doesn't remember what the sound is. ”
"You mean, that kid, still alive?" Mu Lingyun asked with wide eyes.
Zhuo Jinan thought for a while and said, "If the child in the box is the child, then it is very likely that she is still alive." ”
"But why send her away?"
"My dad said there were rumors at the time that ......"
"Say what?" Mu Lingyun asked sharply.
"It is said that the Chengguo Mansion gave birth to a monster." Zhuo Jinan pinched his eyebrows and said, "The news was quickly suppressed. After that, a lot of things happened, and gradually everyone forgot about the existence of that child. After Ruoyu was born, no one ever mentioned it again. ”
Mu Lingyun twisted his eyebrows and looked at Zhuo Jin'an, and said in disbelief: "Do you think that you are tied ...... Is that person that the child? ”
Zhuo Jinan nodded vigorously and said, "Although, I don't know what happened after that." However, I think it's quite possible. ”
Mu Lingyun held his forehead, he had received too much news, and he couldn't react for the time being.
Zhuo Jinan probably also discovered this, and he whispered, "Ling Yun, are you okay?" ”
"If that person is really that child, how can she have anything to do with these things?"
Zhuo Jinan was stunned for a moment, and then said cautiously: "Perhaps, she is looking for a national teacher just to find you?" ”
"You're talking nonsense, are you?"
Zhuo Jinan was stunned for a moment, and nodded cautiously. He only made a bold guess, and the evidence is not yet available. However, if this is the truth, then they will definitely find the truth if they follow this line of thought.
"Do you have proof?"
Zhuo Jinan thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, I'll find it out as soon as possible." ”
Mu Lingyun thanked him, and said with a tired face: "Does the national teacher also know about this matter?" ”
Zhuo Jinan instantly understood Mu Lingyun's thoughts, and at the beginning, he also thought so. However, his father stopped him.
"My dad said we'd better find clues on this matter ourselves. If we go directly to the national teacher, we may be in trouble. Zhuo Jinan showed an expression of sudden realization and said, "The national teacher may think that we know the truth of that matter, and he should find a way to ......."
Mu Lingyun thought of Xue Heng, did he also know about these things? It's just that he is not in Beijing at the moment, and if he is, he will know the answer to this matter.
"What are you going to do?" Zhuo Jin'an asked cautiously.
Mu Lingyun sighed, the man had already left. All this time has passed, and much evidence has been found. His parents should have known about it, though. But do you really want to ask them?
"Are there any other clues?" Mu Lingyun asked in a deep voice.
"After the prince's accident, he once contacted the national teacher. As for whether the national teacher replied to him, I don't know for the time being. However, the crown prince has been a little unstable lately. ”
Mu Lingyun's eyes were full of surprise, the crown prince had already been imprisoned, and he was still uneasy. However, this is also in line with the character of the crown prince. In this way, he thought of his sister who was still at home and was deceived by the prince. The matter has not yet been resolved, and he has new troubles.
"Are you going to ask your uncle and aunt?" Zhuo Jin'an asked cautiously.
Mu Lingyun raised his head and asked rhetorically, "Should I ask?" ”
"Well, if you care about the truth, you should ask." After a pause, Zhuo Jinan said again: "However, my uncle and aunt have hidden the matter a long time ago, and I think there is their trouble. If you mention it rashly, I'm afraid it will make them sad. ”
"yes." Mu Lingyun pressed his temples and said, "Then I won't tell them first." ”
Zhuo Jinan nodded and said, "I will continue to investigate, I will definitely find the truth." ”
Mu Lingyun wanted to stop him, but after thinking about it, if that person was really that child, maybe finding her would make his parents happy, and Xiaoyu might forget the prince for a while.
After saying this, Zhuo Jinan asked about Mu Ruoyu's situation by the way.
"It's still the same, oil and salt don't enter, and I'm only willing to believe my own rhetoric." Mu Lingyun sighed.
"The prince is also not at ease, I think soon, if the language will understand, the prince is a lie."
Mu Lingyun sighed and did not speak. He hoped that day would come soon, otherwise, if it continued like this, he feared that things would get worse and worse.
"Then I'll go first, I'll ......"
Mu Lingyun waved at him.
Zhuo Jinan asked again and again, and after making sure that he had no problem alone, he left the restaurant.
After a cup of tea, Mu Lingyun also left the restaurant, and he walked slowly to the door of the National Teacher's Mansion alone.
Previously, he had been kidnapped by the man on this road. And this time, he walked all the way, but he never met the man again.
Looking at the majestic National Teacher's Mansion in front of him, Mu Lingyun wanted to rush in and ask the National Teacher what was going on, whether that person was his sister or not.
When he got to the tenth step, he stopped. He remembered what Zhuo Jinan said, and it was not a wise choice to rush to see the national teacher.
He took a deep breath, slowly turned around, and strode out of the National Teacher's Mansion.
Ji Ran and Cheng An, who witnessed all this, had a heated discussion about this.
Ji Ran felt that the way he looked at the National Teacher's Mansion was obviously hateful to him, this should be regarded as someone on their side, and they should find a way to let him know what the National Teacher did. Then, work with him.
Cheng An felt that his move was not necessarily an enmity with the national teacher, perhaps a young man who wanted to apprentice but was rejected. In the capital, there are too many young people who have been rejected by the national teacher.
If they tell him what they have found, it will basically be equivalent to tying themselves up and sending them to the national teacher.
"It's all our speculation, and we should have evidence before we speak."
Cheng An glanced at the National Teacher's Mansion with the door closed, and finally agreed to Ji Ran and followed Mu Lingyun to take a look.
Mu Lingyun didn't go home immediately, he turned around and came to the front of the prince's mansion. The entrance is still guarded by Yulin, and there are only a lot more in the yard.
He was very curious about how the crown prince managed to spread the news to the outside world in such a well-guarded mansion. Thinking of his previous connection with Mu Ruoyu, he felt that Mu Ruoyu must know how he did it, and at the same time, he also knew very well that Mu Ruoyu would not tell him the answer.
Mu Lingyun couldn't help but seriously think about what Zhuo Jinan said to him. If that person was really that child, why on earth was she involved in these things?
Thinking of this, a strange power surged in his heart. urged him to go home and ask his parents about it.
Mu Lingyun did the same, and under the urging of that strange force, he hurried back home. Then, he was called to Huo's courtyard by his mother's maid, who was waiting for him in the mansion.
Huo's brows were furrowed, and after seeing Mu Lingyun, she smiled, but the smile was fleeting. Mu Lingyun realized that he hadn't seen his mother smile for a long time.
The power in Mu Lingyun's heart gradually disappeared, replaced by self-blame. He didn't take good care of his sister, which is why he made his mother so worried, and now what reason did he have to add to his mother's distress with a piece of news that could not be proved.
"Mother, you came to me, what's the matter?" Mu Lingyun asked softly.
Huo Shi hesitated for a moment, and then told Mu Lingyun what she had said to coax Mu Ruoyu.
Mu Lingyun sighed slightly, this was similar to what he had done before. It's just that my mother's words are a bit exaggerated. If Ruoyu doesn't wait for this in the future, I'm afraid I'm afraid I'll resent her.
"I know it's wrong, but I can't think of anything else." Huo Shi clutched his chest and said expectantly: "Lingyun, when Yu'er knows the truth, will she blame me?" ”
Mu Lingyun knew what kind of answer Huo Shi wanted, and he could indeed give such an answer. However, he knew that was not true.
"Mother, don't worry, that kind of thing won't happen." Mu Lingyun quietly promised in his heart that he would not let that kind of thing happen.
Hearing this, Huo Shi breathed a sigh of relief. She was really, too afraid that her daughter would resent her.
"Mother, if you're okay, I'll leave first."
"Go ahead."
Walking to the door, Mu Lingyun's footsteps paused slightly, he wanted to turn back, and wanted to ask what happened. Huo's sad face flashed in his mind, and he still didn't look back after all.
"Chengguo Mansion." Ji Ran held his chin, thought about it seriously, and said, "Third Senior Brother, they shouldn't have any interests with the National Teacher's Mansion, right?" ”
Cheng An waved his hand and said, "Fei Ye, this capital, don't look at it so big." But the relationship between these dignitaries is intertwined, and even if they know about it, they will not do anything. Hopefully, they'll want a piece of the action. ”
"But I don't think that young man is good-looking, he doesn't look like a person who can do that kind of thing." Ji Ran retorted in a low voice.
Cheng An pursed his lips and said, "If people let you see through it so easily, then our lives will be much easier." ”
"So, that is, we can't tell him about that." Ji Ran hung his head and said dejectedly.
Cheng An thought for a while and comforted her: "Let's go investigate that matter first, if we still have time, we can observe him." ”
Ji Ran smiled slightly and said, "Third Senior Brother, I don't really want to know what kind of person he is. So, there is no need. ”
"In that case, shall we go?"
"Okay." Ji Ran smiled.
Bai Yunhao checked outside for a long time, but he didn't find the news that his master wanted. Moreover, not only did he not find out the news. It was also discovered that someone was stalking him. However, he searched for a long time, but he did not find out who was following him.
After thinking about it for a while, Bai Yunhao decided to return to the master's mansion first and tell his master what he had discovered.
After listening to Bai Yunhao's reply, Chaoyue frowned and thought for a while, and asked, "In addition to following you, is there anything else you have discovered?" ”
"No, he didn't do anything."
"I'll find someone to investigate this matter, and you continue to investigate the previous matter."
Bai Yunhao thought for a while and said, "On the prince's side, it seems that there have been some big moves recently, do you really need to care about it?" ”
Chaoyue waved his hand and said, "No need to meddle." If he comes back to the news, tell him to do whatever he wants. ”
"Yes, master. I understand. ”
After Bai Yunhao left, Chaoyue called out Yueyi.
"You go and tell Thunder about this. Let him find the man as soon as possible, and bring him to me. ”
As soon as Yue got the order, he dodged and disappeared in front of Chao Yue.
Chaoyue picked up the small wooden box on the desk, and looked at it distantly, as if she was missing something.
Watching Bai Yunhao leave the National Teacher's Mansion, Cheng An and the three of them were very entangled in whether to follow or not.
"If we stay here, we won't be able to enter the National Teacher's Mansion, and we won't get any clues." Ji Ran whispered.
Cheng An gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go, let's follow." ”
"I'll definitely try not to let him find out." Yu Sen said.
