Chapter 158: Kicked out of the house

"Fifth brother, invite a beauty to accompany you, why don't you call it the ninth brother!"

Jiang Tong shook the fan with a slight smile and stepped into the gazebo with elegant steps.

Qu Youying immediately got up and curtsied, "Lord Wang." ”

Jiang Tong glanced at her, but smiled silently.

"The ninth brother is entangled in everything, and the imperial brother is just idle and has nothing to do, so he sits here and sits around, and happens to see Miss Qu here, and she is very interested in what she is doing as a woman, so she invites you to drink tea and chat."

Although King Yi was quite kind on face and said something to explain, Qu Youying could see that the smile was already very stiff, not to mention that Jiang Tong had brought so many people here, and it was clear that he would not give him face.

Eruptions, perhaps, only in a moment.

"The ninth brother is going to be sorry for the fifth brother." He put away the fan, pointed to a few people behind him, and said to King Yi, "Just now, the third and fourth princes were looking for Xiaoying, saying that the old lady had an invitation, but they couldn't find it everywhere. Mu Gongzi and I happened to pass by, so we came over together, how did I know that outside the courtyard, I saw the fifth brother's people, and under this inquiry, I knew that the fifth brother and Xiaoying were here. The fifth brother also knows that Xiaoying is not a simple acquaintance for me, and now that Shuifu is an eventful time, the ninth brother is naturally more worried. Now that she saw that Xiaoying was fine, she let her take her away first, after all, Mrs. Shui was the owner of Shuifu, and she couldn't delay looking for someone. What does the fifth brother think? ”

After saying a few words, King Yi couldn't refute it, so that the purpose of wanting to take her away was tied to death.

The smile on his face was a little uncontrollable, and the fingers behind his negative hand were already clenched tightly, trembling with suppression.

"Grandpa, grandma invites someone, I can't wait." Shui Linze suddenly stepped forward and said, "I wonder if I can take Miss Qu away now?" Of course, if the prince likes the scenery of my courtyard, he can move in, and Shui Linze will never say anything. ”

"Hmph." King Yi snorted coldly, looked around everyone sharply, and finally walked out of the pavilion on the side of his body, "This king just happened to meet Miss Qu, but I didn't expect Miss Qu to be a sweetheart, but you have to be careful in the future." ”

After he finished speaking, he brushed his sleeves and left, and Qu Youying breathed a sigh of relief.

"I was scared to death just now, if you want you to be one step late, I guess I will really be taken away by him."

Qu Youying patted her chest, her face palpitating.

"You!"

Jiang Tong knew that she was pretending, so she smiled wordlessly, and wanted to teach her a lesson, but saw that the person had already run behind Mu Jingzhu and stuck out his tongue at him.

"The prince's life-saving grace, Qu Youying has already understood it, as she has done many times before, she will not repay it."

"You are bold, you have the ability, you come out from behind Mu Jingzhu, come to this king, and then try it."

"Only fools will pass!" Qu Youying raised her eyebrows, and then pulled Mu Jingzhu's sleeve, intending to tell him what happened just now, "Let's go first!" ”

"Okay."

Mu Jingzhu took her hand and strode out.

But after walking out of the Jiuqu Corridor Bridge, Qu Youying found that the two sons of Shuifu were still following her.

She blinked and said, "What are you two doing with us?" ”

Mu Jingzhu looked at the two people behind him, and gave her an expressionless answer, "The old lady wants to see you and me." ”

"Huh?"

Regarding the fact that Lao Taijun suddenly wanted to see Qu Youying and Mu Jingzhu, both of them actually felt strange.

Even Mizumi and Mizurinzawa felt strange.

If it is said that it is Mu Jingzhu who is investigating the case in Shuifu, the old lady wants to see him and know the progress of the case, which can be understood by everyone.

But Qu Youying is just a trick, and after the autopsy, there is nothing to do with her.

But the old lady just found the two grandsons, and the most asked about Qu Youying, and later learned that Mu Jingzhu had not gone out to check the clues, so he called them together.

When the two went to the old lady's yard, the old lady was lying on the rattan chair, and Shui Wuyue knocked her on the shoulder.

"Grandma, Miss Qu and Mu Gongzi are here."

The old lady opened her eyes, looked at the two people in front of her, and said lightly, "Serve tea." ”

The servant quickly brought two cups of tea, and then the old lady asked the two brothers and Shui Wuyue to retreat one after another, so to speak, except for a maidservant who served the old lady, there were only three of them in the courtyard.

"Sit down!"

Qu Youying looked at Mu Jingzhu and saw him sit down, so she sat down with him, but the tea in front of her was not touched.

Mu Jingzhu asked, "I don't know why Taijun is looking for the two of us?" ”

"Actually, it's nothing."

The old lady waved her hand at the maidservant, and the maidservant immediately brought a boxy box.

The box was a little big, she directly ordered someone to open it, and the golden light inside almost didn't light up the blind glowing eyes.

She reached out and rubbed her eyes, and turned them sideways, closer to Mu Jingzhu.

"I don't know what Taijun means by this?"

"Do you know that there is a thing in the Water Mansion called the Shangshu Ancient Scroll?"

The old lady suddenly asked, Qu Youying and Mu Jingzhu glanced at each other, and finally Mu Jingzhu said, "I know." It is said that the heads of the families of all generations were chosen by this ancient scroll. It has been a generation since Shuifu became the head of the family, because no one has been elected. And this thing is amazing, and there are many people watching it outside. ”

This is not a secret outside, so there are not a few people who know about it.

The old lady started with this incident, and Mu Jingzhu could already guess the purpose of her coming to them today.

"You're right. Because of this, not only the descendants of Shuifu, but also those people outside coveted the ancient scrolls, and because of it, a secret clue was concealed. So this thing has always been a hidden danger in Shuifu. ”

When the old lady said this, she sighed heavily, and her expression was a little sad.

"Since the birthday banquet of the old man in Shuifu, a lot of things have happened, and so many people have left one after another, which has also made people panic. This may be the fate of Shuifu, and the old body does not dare to fight with the sky. ”

"What do you meanβ€”" Qu Youying guessed, "You want us to stop the investigation and leave with the silver?" ”

The old lady looked at her squarely and asked, "If that's the case, will you agree to leave?" ”

"It's-"

Qu Youying subconsciously looked at Mu Jingzhu, in fact, she was not interested in the affairs of Shuifu, but because the Shangshu Ancient Scroll was related to the treasures of the Esoteric Sect Tianxuan, so did the red beads in her hand, so she really wanted to see what the Shangshu Ancient Scroll was and whether there were unknown secrets hidden in it.

But Mu Jingzhu was purely deceived by her master to help her, if she left before she finished it, Xi Fengyi was afraid that it would not be easy to fool her.

And Xi Fengyi is a person who insists on getting very few things in his life.

Among them, helping her get all the red beads is one thing, and the second thing seems to be the ancient scroll.

So, are they going or staying?

Just as she was in a daze, Mu Jingzhu reached out and covered the box containing the gold and stood up.

"Taijun's meaning, I already understand it below, if there is nothing else, we will leave."

The old lady nodded and said to the maidservant beside her, "Send off the guest." ”

The maidservant sent them all the way out of the courtyard, and Shui Wuze and Shui Linze waited outside.

When he saw the two of them coming out, he immediately greeted them.

"What is Grandma looking for you to do?"

Qu Youying glanced at the water mist, and angrily pointed to the box of gold in Mu Jingzhu's hand, and said, "Your grandmother is using gold to drive people away!" I'm afraid we're going to have to leave the water house today. ”

"How so?" Shui Wuze glanced at Shui Linze and said, "The person who set the fire hasn't been found yet!" How can it be left at that? ”

"Third brother, grandma has already said that Junyu's matter is over. Wouldn't it be better if grandma used this as an excuse to kick them out of Shuifu? No one was monitoring them in Shuifu, so it would be much easier to reveal the murderers of Junyu and them. ”

"Listening to what the fourth prince means, do you really think that someone killed the three young ladies, not an accident?"

Shui Linze was stunned for a moment, and when he saw that it was Mu Jingzhu talking, he hurriedly smiled again, "Isn't it?" The three good people, who don't die early or late, just died before and after the birthday banquet held in Shuifu, and they died in such an important matter. The fair competition that is said to be good has become a one-man victory, and this matter is unfair in the eyes of anyone. ”

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Shui Wuze was furious when he heard this, "Wuyue almost walked away in the ghost gate, but she survived because of her fate." ”

"The third brother doesn't have to be angry, the fourth brother just talked about the matter, and didn't say that Wuyue was the murderer!" Shui Linze was smiling the whole time, not annoyed, his eyes glanced at Qu Youying, who was listening to them seriously, and said, "The important thing at the moment is that grandma is going to drive people away, what should we do?" ”

"What else can I do? Grandma's orders, you and I can't disobey. I think so! Shui Wuze took a step forward, walked up to Mu Jingzhu and said, "The two of you should go back to the Supreme House first." I'll take care of everything for the two of you, and you two can rest assured. Then privately continued to help investigate the case of the Water House. As long as the murderer is found, then the reward will definitely not be less. ”

"You people in Shuifu, do you like to use money to do things so much?"

Qu Youying's cool mockery made the smile on Shui Mist's face slightly stagnant.

Mu Jingzhu glanced at him and said, "Money is something outside the body, as a fast catcher, I originally promised the fourth prince to investigate the case, but the case is getting more and more strange, and I haven't found any useful clues so far." Maybe staying out of it and abandoning the light and turning to the dark will have a different gain. ”

When Shui Wuze heard what he said, his eyebrows were slightly happy, "Mu Gongzi has agreed?" ”

Mu Jingzhu nodded, and the smile on Shui Mize's face expanded, "Then it's decided, I can send someone to the Supreme Residence to make a point." ”

"Jing Candle, you are willing to continue to help, I am also very happy, in this way, I will ask someone to prepare some things, and you can bring them back to the Supreme Residence."

The two of them seemed to have taken a reassuring pill, and left one after the other.

Qu Youying is suspicious.

She saw Mu Jingzhu walking towards Shui Linze's courtyard, and hurriedly followed, seeing no one left and right, she lowered her voice and asked, "You said that Shui Linze wants us to investigate, it is reasonable, after all, it is Shui Junyu who died, although she is not a particularly beloved sister, but after all, she is a half-brother, and she has to do enough." But what about the water mist? He made it clear that he and Shui Wuyue were in the same group. Shui Wuyue's pretending to be unconscious that time is enough to explain. It stands to reason that as long as we leave, it is equivalent to driving out the person who gets in the way, and it will be more convenient for him to do things. Why do you still ask us to continue the investigation behind our backs? ”

Mu Jingzhu raised his eyes to look at the mist that had long disappeared in front of him, and said lightly, "This is where he is shrewd." ”
