Chapter 019: Malicious intentions, framed and framed

Before the gate of the Mu family was fully opened, a group of people rushed in.

When the housekeeper of the Mu family saw so many people, he was taken aback at first, and when he recognized that the leader was Shen Zhutou of the Yamen, he whispered to the little servant who followed him to tell Mu Zhizhao, and at the same time stepped forward and asked cautiously: "Shen Zhutou came to the Mu family so late, but what happened to the big thing?" ”

Shen Congshan's eyes scanned the corners of the Mu family unscrupulously, and he didn't seem to hear the questions of his subordinates.

The little catcher who was still following him recognized the housekeeper, frowned and explained: "Recently, Cangyuan Mountain has not been peaceful, and a group of rogues have always come out to harass the people. ”

"Thieves?" The steward was taken aback.

Cangyuan Mountain is not far from Jinling, and there have indeed been a few theft cases recently, listening to the meaning of the quick words, this gang of thieves is really eyeing the Mu family?

Shen Congshan waited for a long time, but he didn't see Mu Zhi summoning him out, and he was a little impatient: "The Mu family doesn't even have a person in charge?" Let go of the thieves, don't blame me for treating you as my own party! ”

"Shen Zhutou, what do you mean by this!" Mu Zhizhao, who had just heard the news, happened to hear it, and he was unhappy in his heart, and the three-point smile that had just been piled up on his face also collapsed.

Shen Congshan had a cold face and arched his hand: "Master Mu, I suspect that a thief has entered the Mu family, and now I want to search the Mu Mansion." ”

Searching for a home? With a trumped-up suspicion, you want to search the Mu family?

These people really think that they are a petty official with sesame mung beans, how many levels higher than themselves?

Mu Zhizhao's face turned blue with anger, after the matter of the Zhou and Xu families, his attitude towards these officials and family members was very different from before, although he was still as gentle as ever, but in his bones there was no longer the kind of accommodation and tolerance he had before. Hearing Shen Congshan's words, Mu Zhizhao immediately brushed his sleeves and said, "Doubtful? In the middle of the night, Shen Zhutou wanted to search my huge mansion, just by suspecting two words, it was too rash! ”

Shen Congshan is also stubborn, Mu Zhizhao did not cooperate, and his temper also came up: "Are you trying to cover up?" ”

Mu Zhizhao snorted coldly, and couldn't help but want to refute, but his hand was suddenly gently grabbed from behind.

Mu Yunge put on a soft jacket and stood behind him, his little face showed a look of nervousness and fear, but the hand holding him tightened gently, preventing him from what he wanted to say.

Mu Yunge blessed his body slightly, and his voice trembled a little: "Dad, I have also heard about the thieves in Cangyuan Mountain, these outlaws are insatiable and plague the people everywhere. Shen Zhutou must have mastered some clues, and maybe he even witnessed the thief enter the Mu family before rushing to arrest him. It's also for our safety, so let them search for it. It's good to catch the thief, so as not to disturb the mother and brother. ”

After a few words, first lifting, then reasoning, and then persuasion, Shen Congshan's face softened slightly, and his face showed a little gratitude: "Miss understands righteousness, and Shen is really impressed." ”

"Shen Zhutou, you have to search carefully!" With a slight smile on his face, Mu Yunge pulled Mu Zhizhao out of the way.

Shen Congshan led the crowd to search the house next to the house, Mu Zhizhao asked his daughter what was going on with his eyes, Mu Yunge wrote a few words in his palm with his fingers, Mu Zhizhao's eyes flashed coldly, after all, because Shen Congshan was here, he didn't say anything.

The father and daughter accompanied Shen Congshan to search room by room, but they didn't find any clues, and soon arrived in front of the warehouse.

Mu Zhizhao asked the housekeeper to open the door, and Shen Congshan went in first.

The storehouse is dry, generally without candles, and it is pitch black. Shen Congshan took the torch, swept it along the ground, and suddenly frowned: "Master Mu, does anyone come to the warehouse on weekdays?" ”

"This is a warehouse that the Mu family does not commonly use, about a month or so, there will be people to tidy up, and no one will come on weekdays." Mu Zhizhao said.

Shen Congshan shone the torch somewhere: "The footprints here are fresh. He paused as he spoke, looked at it carefully, seemed to be confirmed, and then pointed to the wooden door in the middle of the storeroom and asked, "Judging from the direction of the footprints, the person who came into the storehouse did not seem to have gone out, and the footprints disappeared when they reached the door at the back." Where does that door lead? ”

"This room is used to store some medicinal herbs, wood, dried products, etc. You see, the front room is full of wood, medicinal herbs, etc., and the back room is used to store some precious fabrics from the Mu family's silk village. Mu Zhizhao asked him, "Do you want to open it and take a look?" ”

Shen Congshan nodded and took the key from the butler's hand.

If the thief is still hiding in this room, then the butler who does not know martial arts will open the door, and he is only afraid of bad luck.

The locks were opened, the doors were pushed, and the contents of the room were clear under the light of the torches, except for a few large dusty boxes, nothing else, not even the footprints were gone.

Shen Congshan was very puzzled in his heart, he couldn't understand why he suddenly disappeared after following the thief from the foot of Cangyuan Mountain to Mu's house?

"Who?" Suddenly, the head catcher standing on the outermost side exclaimed.

Shen Congshan turned back quickly, and in the night, he saw a figure jumping down from the beam of the house, knocking down the catcher at the door, and snatching the door out. The figure flew quickly, and disappeared in a flash.

He couldn't help but hate his carelessness in his heart, and actually forgot to check the beams of the house, so he left the thief, and hurriedly said "offended" to Mu Zhizhao, and chased after the catchers.

As soon as the group left, Mu Zhizhao couldn't wait to ask Mu Yunge: "What does the word 'Ji' you just wrote in your father's hand mean?" Yunge, do you know something? ”

Mu Yunge saw that his expression was anxious, but he didn't seem to be afraid, and he felt a little strange in his heart. But after thinking about it, my father probably had lingering feelings about these things after the last divorce turmoil, and he was afraid that the Zhou and Xu families would retaliate, so she explained softly: "Dad, you should have heard of what kind of person Shen Zhutou is, although he is a little arrogant, he has always been upright, the more you shirk, he only thinks you have a ghost in your heart, it is better to let him search." As for what I'm talking about...... Dad, our Mu family is also considered a rich party in the Jinling area, the thieves in Cangyuan Mountain really want to steal the Mu family, why don't they act when Dad is out and the Mu family is empty, but instead come to steal on the day Dad comes back? This is suspicion one; Also, if they really came to steal, according to their level of theft some time ago, they would never be discovered, why did they deliberately let Shen Zhutou see it this time? This is the second suspicion. With these two points, although the daughter still doesn't understand what these people mean, she has enough reason to believe that this is a conspiracy against the Mu family. ”

A conspiracy that will make the Mu family unrecoverable!

"Yunge, you've grown up." Mu Zhizhao listened to her analysis quietly, with guilt and relief in his eyes. He was relieved that his daughter had become so smart and courageous, and saddened that he ...... She is only thirteen years old, and she has to face these dirty things, it is his incompetence as a father who does not protect his daughter.

Mu Yunge gently hugged his shoulder and coquettishly: "Dad, no matter what, Yun Ge is still your daughter, Yun Ge will protect you and your mother, as well as Jinran." ”

Mu Zhizhao pinched her face: "Dad protects you!" His eyes immediately sank: "Those people, don't want to move a finger of our Mu family!" ”

Mu Zhizhao walks outside all the year round because of business, and the Mu family has specially raised a group of nursing homes. Mu Zhizhao immediately called two agile ones, followed Shen Congshan from afar, and came to inform them as soon as there was news.

Mu Yunge accompanied him, and the father and daughter waited until the second half of the night before the nurse came back to say: "Master, miss, Shen Zhutou has been chasing for a few streets, but he still lost the thief." The small martial arts are better than him, but he didn't lose them. The thief entered a small manor in the north of the city. The little one wanted to ask the people around him whose garden it was, but he saw the second son of the Xu family coming to the garden. The little one was afraid of being seen, and he was afraid that the old lady would wait for a long time, so he came back first and asked Wang Er to guard the ......"

The Xu family, it turned out to be them!

Mu Yunge lowered his eyes, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and anger rolled in his chest.

"And then?" She asked in a low voice, "Did Second Prince Xu go in?" ”

"Nope." The nurse shook his head: "He walked around the garden, and then he went home humming a little tune." ”

Mu Yunge waved his hand and let him go down.

Mu Zhizhao frowned and said, "Could that garden belong to the Xu family?" This matter has something to do with the Xu family? ”

Mu Yunge didn't deny it, nor did he affirm it, seeing Mu Zhizhao's tired face, he remembered that he had traveled a long way home and worked hard, but he just persuaded him to go back and rest. After saying anything, he finally persuaded Mu Zhi to return to the room and wait and see what happened.

She took Pei Xin to Tang Linyi's room herself.

"Master, you haven't been discovered, have you?" As soon as she saw Tang Linyi, she couldn't wait to ask.

Tang Linyi chuckled and was gentle: "Fortunately, I don't disgrace my life." ”

He spread out the cloth bag on the table, only to see that it was a boxy box, the workmanship was quite meticulous, but it was tightly wrapped, and the compartment inside was also made of waterproof oiled paper cloth, and it could be seen that the owner attached great importance to the contents of this box.

The box has a lock, Tang Linyi pinched it with two fingers and twisted it gently, and the lock fell off.

Mu Yunge opened the box and saw that what was in this wooden box was actually a set of clothes. On the top is the outer robe, and the dragon pattern embroidered with gold silk on the outer robe is vivid, as if it is about to fly into the air. The color of this outfit is different from the common color in the market, and it is bright yellow!

Yellow, the same as the emperor, is the special color of the emperor of Wei!

This dress turned out to be a dragon robe!

Mu Yunge held the dragon robe, and couldn't help but tremble, feeling chills all over his body. If it weren't for that note that made her feel on guard, let the master follow the thief, and unknowingly take back the things that the thief put in the Mu family's warehouse, the consequences would be unimaginable.

She understands tonight's situation: first use the thief to attract the attention of the arrester, and then lead the arrester to the Mu family, and the dragon robe will be found if the arrest is searched, and the thief will take the opportunity to get out, and at that time, the charge of rebellion will be detained on the head of the Mu family.

The Xu family's intentions are so vicious, as soon as they make a move, they want the lives of the Mu family and even the Mu family.

Mu Yunge clenched his fists, his eyes red.

If you want to harm her Mu family, well, she will send them on the road first!

She raised her head and looked at Tang Linyi steadily: "Master, do me another favor." ”
