Chapter 242: Secret Letter

"Not bad, not bad!"

Ye Lingxiao looked at Mu Qingyan and laughed with satisfaction.

Mu Rin looked at the chessboard played by Mu Qingyan and exclaimed: "It turns out that you were allowed to play chess with me before!

This is not only good, it is simply amazing! Mu Qingyan has never been to a private school and invited a teacher!

"Hehe, how is my grandfather? I'm okay, right?" Mu Qingyan smiled slyly, and her little face was full of agility in an instant.

"Little girl, weird, even the old man deceived her. Ye Lingxiao looked at Mu Qingyan, who was winking at him, and for a moment, he seemed to see Ye Xin.

I thought that with the passage of time, the appearance of my baby daughter Ye Xin became more and more blurred, and at her age, her memory was not as clear as she was young. However, when the girl in front of her appeared, she was able to clearly see Ye Xin's appearance in her head......

Mu Qingyan in front of her is also carved in pink and jade, with bright eyes and bright teeth, beautiful and refined, as beautiful as a fairy, talented and good-looking, so beautiful If it weren't for that eccentric temperament, it would be a copy of Ye Xin!

Mu Qingyan is smart and unrestrained, and Ye Xin is coquettish and reserved, such a comparison is really difficult to blend together.

Seeing Mu Qingyan blinking mischievously, Ye Lingxiao couldn't help but sigh and said, "Xin'er may be right......

Back then, if Ye Xin hadn't given birth to Mu Qingyan, then ......

Mu Qingyan looked at Ye Lingxiao, grinned, and said, "Grandfather, I didn't expect me to be so powerful, I didn't expect it either, hehe!"

As soon as these words came out, Mu Rin pursed his lips and smiled, Ye Lingxiao immediately cried and laughed, and said: "I was about to say that you are a beautiful woman with both talent and beauty, but this opening will be ruined!"

"Yes, a mouth is a play. Mu Rin also said with a smile.

Hearing this, Mu Qingyan blinked her eyes and couldn't help laughing.

Ye Lingxiao snorted coldly and said, "You can still laugh now, you obviously look so good, obviously you look so similar." Why didn't I recognize it when I first saw it, it's not your ghost!"

"What my grandfather said is true!" Mu Qingyan smiled and said: "My mother's good looks and my good looks are all thanks to my grandfather and grandmother. ”

Ye Lingxiao glanced at her, and then said: "Say that you look like, it's really not like it at all!

"Chu ...... What's the matter with Chu Xun?"

"Seeing you like this, you want to fool me again, right!" Glancing at her with disgust, Ye Lingxiao said: "That kid wants to look for you if he doesn't want to die, and he said that he likes you, but you really don't know at all?"

When Mu Qingyan heard this, her face changed, and she said: "Grandfather, that's Chu Xun who likes me, and it's not that I like him, how do I know what's wrong with him! Besides, he didn't all leave, the last time he came, he was out of kindness but ran into King's Landing, and he almost didn't tear down the sky." He doesn't think that if I saved him before, he will make a promise, right?"

After a pause, he said, "Otherwise, why do you keep chasing me?"

Mu Rin said leisurely: "I think Chu Xun can't think about it, just like you, why did you fascinate a lot of people!"

Hearing this, Ye Lingxiao was not happy, his eyes immediately threw out the knife to Mu Rin's face, and said: "How can you talk about your sister like this, our Yan'er is the best, the most beautiful! Next time I hear you say this about Yan'er, I will punish you for copying books a hundred times." ”

When Mu Qingyan heard this, she was happy, she stepped forward, grabbed Ye Lingxiao's arm, and said coquettishly: "Grandfather just loves me!"

Mu Rin looked at her mischievous appearance from the side, and couldn't help laughing, and her pursed lips rose slightly in a pleasant arc.

But the afterglow swept away somewhere in the courtyard......

"Then accompany my grandfather to play chess again. "Ye Lingxiao hasn't met such a chess opponent for a long time, and his skills are itchy.

"Is there a reward for winning?"

"If you don't win, you will have a prize!"

"Okay, let's play chess. Mu Qingyan can respond refreshingly.

"This is a good move...... Ye Lingxiao also played chess with great interest, on the contrary, Ye Lingxiao's chess skills are completely opposite to his old urchin's temper.

The temper is explosive, but the chess skills are so powerful, you can see the steps of others at a glance.

Ye Lingxiao, Mu Qingyan, Mu Rin, plus Luan'er, Yan'er, and Zhaolin were waiting on the side.

The six of them were all engrossed, watching the black and white men on the chessboard fight, you come and go, and you can't kill......

Until the sunspot was eaten a large piece, there was no way to fight back.

"You are cheating!" Ye Lingxiao's face darkened.

Mu Qingyan didn't care, looked at the winning chessboard, smiled toothlessly, and said: "There are no rules that say that you can't cheat." ”

"Don't count, come again!"

"Come on, I don't believe you will win the next set!"

I don't know how long it took.

"Why did you still win?" Ye Lingxiao was dumbfounded, looking at the chess pieces on the chessboard, he still lost four pieces?

"Hehe...... "Hey, hey" Mu Qingyan won, where she couldn't close her mouth with a smile, looking at her grandfather's puzzled look.

Mu Rin, looking at it and shaking her head, Mu Qingyan actually cheated her grandfather, and her grandfather loved her so much!

Zhaolin, Luan'er, and Yan'er naturally didn't dare to say anything when they watched from the side, but just stood quietly.

When Ye Lingxiao couldn't figure it out even if he wanted to break his head, Mu Qingyan cracked his mouth and said, "Grandfather remember to owe me a reward!"

"Okay, okay, I'll be missing you!" Ye Lingxiao was very depressed, but he didn't understand how Mu Qingyan cheated.

"Didn't my grandfather ask me what reward I wanted?" Mu Qingyan's eyes flashed and she asked happily.

Ye Lingxiao listened, looked away from the chessboard, looked at Mu Qingyan, and asked solemnly, "What does Xiao Yan'er want?"

Now is not the time to think about how to deceive, what Xiao Yan'er wants is the most important. Big deal, just ask your granddaughter for advice in a while.

Hearing this, Mu Qingyan's eyes lit up, and she said, "I want to know my mother'......"

Mu Rin listened, his eyes shrank, and the tea in his hand was ......

"Lord Wang!"

Luan'er, Yan'er's voice fell, and the people of King's Landing appeared in front of them.

"Hmm!" King's Landing replied softly, but his gaze was straight at Mu Qingyan.

Noticing King's Landing, Ye Lingxiao's eyes rolled, and he looked at Mu Qingyan.

"Why? Can't my granddaughter come to see me, an old man?"

King's Landing spoke, "Old man, she is my daughter-in-law. ”

Mu Qingyan stuck out her tongue, walked up to King's Landing, looked up at him, and said with a smile: "I didn't let Shao Dong tell you that I came to Ye Mansion. There's no danger here, what are you doing with a nervous face?"

Hearing this, King's Landing looked away from her face and landed on the chessboard in front of Ye Lingxiao, her eyebrows immediately raised, and she said, "You won!"

Was it strange that she had won? She had won against him! Did he see that she was cheating?

Thinking like this, Mu Qingyan felt a little weak.

"Hehe, my grandfather let me!"

"Then we can talk about it!"

"......" Hearing this, Mu Qingyan was stunned and couldn't speak.

Looking at Mu Qingyan's stunned expression, King's Landing pulled her, raised her feet and walked out.

"Hey, Yan'er is here to see the old man, why does King's Landing come to rob people?" Ye Lingxiao watched King's Landing pull people away like this, but he didn't do it.

The granddaughter is his!

"Lunch, I'll use it inside!" After speaking, King's Landing pulled Mu Qingyan's head and walked away without looking back.

"You, you ......" Ye Lingxiao pointed to the disappearing back of King's Landing, and couldn't say anything angry.

Mu Rin turned his eyes to look at Ye Lingxiao and said, "Grandfather, King's Landing seems to be unhappy that Yan'er came to you. ”

Ye Lingxiao's eyes sank, and he said with a vague expression: "He's not happy, I'm not happy!

"Actually, this is also a good thing!" Mu Rin said with a faint smile.

Ye Lingxiao heard this, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Rin'er, did you do something?"

His grandson's heart is not so simple, calm, careful, and very logical.

Mu Rin's eyes were pale, the smile on the corner of his mouth disappeared, and he said, "Chu Xun is the best when he sees such a picture. ”

In this way, Chu Xun should give up on Mu Qingyan.

"Chu Xun is in the Ye Mansion, if this matter is known by King's Landing, I don't know what to do. Do you dare to deliberately design them?" Ye Lingxiao frowned and said, thinking that Chu Xun might be nearby just now, he couldn't help but wring a cold sweat for him.

King's Landing's martial arts cultivation is not low, if it is, Chu Xun will definitely not be able to escape if he has a little movement.

"Grandfather, don't worry, grandchildren have already been arranged!" Mu Rin replied.

When Ye Lingxiao heard this, his brows furrowed even deeper, and he asked in a deep voice, "How is he now?"

Chu Xun was seriously injured, and as a teacher, he naturally cared, after all, Chu Xun was raised by him!

"It's no big deal, just recuperate for a few days......"

"The old man should go and treat him!"

Mu Rin listened and nodded, speaking of which, his maternal grandfather's medical skills were still not bad......

At this time, Mu Qingyan, who was pulled away, was walking on the road of being nagged.

"Say, did you play chess to get the old man to tell you what you want to know! You still haven't given up what you heard at the bottom of the valley that day, have you?" said King's Landing, grimacing.

"I just want to!" Mu Qingyan didn't hide her intentions at all, looked at King's Landing and said: "My mind is full of trying to figure things out, I want to know how my mother died, I want to know why I am half-brother to Mu Rin? Isn't it good for me to find out the truth? These should be known, isn't it? Why are you so afraid that I know?"

Hearing this, King's Landing squinted at her, was silent for a while, and said, "There are some things that you don't know!"

"I just want to know!"

Jun Lin snorted coldly, and just as he wanted to speak, Zhang Heng hurriedly stepped forward to speak.

"Master, secret letter!"

Hearing this, King's Landing watched Mu Qingyan speak, and said, "What can you change if you know?"

Hearing this, Mu Qingyan replied and said, "I know, I know what I should do!"

It's really infuriating, this ** man!

"I'm scolding this king in my heart again!"

"Hmph, it's good to know!" Mu Qingyan heard this, turned around and walked towards the inner courtyard.

King's Landing stood there quietly, watching Mu Qingyan leave.

"Master!" Zhang Heng didn't dare to be late, and kept a secret letter on the ground with both hands.

King's Landing reached out and took the secret letter in Zhang Heng's hand, opened it, and when he saw the contents inside, his faint eyes became dark......

"What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing!"

When Mrs. Ye heard this, her eyes flashed, and she didn't ask much, and said, "I heard that you just arrived in the mansion with your front foot, and you came with your back foot, and you said that you want to stay here for lunch." ”

"Hmm!" Mu Qingyan nodded, sat on the side and poured herself a cup of tea, holding it in her hand to warm her hands.

"All of you go down!"

Old Madam Ye looked at the maids around her and spoke.

"Yes!"

When the maids heard this, they were commanded to go out.

Luan'er and Yan'er also walked out of the house.

Only then did Old Madam Ye get up, walked in front of Mu Qingyan, took out a chain from her arms, and handed it to her.

Looking at the object in front of her, a strange look flashed in Mu Qingyan's eyes, and then she took it in her hand.

Old Madam Ye looked at Mu Qingyan holding the chain in a daze, smiled faintly, and said, "Are you curious why, grandmother gave you this chain?"

"Hmm!" Mu Qingyan thought in her heart that this chain was not ordinary, the chain was snow-white, she couldn't tell what material it was, and it didn't feel cool at all in her hand, the only thing she was familiar with should be the ruby on the chain.

"This originally belonged to your mother, that is, my daughter Ye Xin!" Old Madam Ye said in a deep voice, exhaling slowly.

"This chain, you put it away, don't disappear!"

"Grandmother, this chain is so important, I ......"

"Don't shirk, don't worry about this, I'm old, I'll be gone one day, Xin'er's things were meant to be passed on to you. Old Madam Ye interrupted Mu Qingyan's words and said.

"Grandmother, what kind of texture is this chain? It doesn't feel like a mortal thing. Mu Qingyan took the chain in her hand for a while, and felt that the chain seemed to be alive, and it would change temperature with her body temperature.

When Mrs. Ye heard this, she just said lightly: "In the future, don't let the chain leave you, don't, you know?"

Mu Qingyan listened, nodded, and saw the sadness in her grandmother's eyes that could not be erased, and did not say anything more.

"Yan'er, my grandmother is tired, and I want to rest for a while. ”

"Then grandmother has a good rest, I'll call you at lunch!" Mu Qingyan put the chain in her arms, then nodded and turned to leave.

Old Madam Ye looked at the back of Mu Qingyan leaving, and the expression on her face was slowly filled with sadness, probably because she was really old, and she had a lot of time to be sad.

There are always some things that I feel like I have to do, but after I do them, I feel empty in my heart......

"Hopefully, my granddaughter doesn't have to endure much!"

The chain was a sacred relic, but she didn't feel happy to have it at all.

I think that at the beginning, a large part of the reason for Ye Xin was that she didn't want to inherit the rights and obligations of this chain. Even though this chain represents some kind of supreme identity, Ye Xin can see the shackles more thoroughly than anyone else.

Even if she knew, she couldn't let Mu Qingyan dodge, after all, someone from where was still dispatched......

Old Madam Ye's heart was full of worries, but unfortunately, Mu Qingyan turned out to be the one who answered the order, and besides, King's Landing was like that......

Sighing and shaking her head, at this point, she shouldn't have thought about this.

Slowly walked out to the window, quietly watching everything in the yard, accustomed to silent thinking......

"Yan'er, what's wrong with you?

Ye Ting, who came out of Ye Jingzhi's study, happened to run into Mu Qingyan who was in a daze while walking, and couldn't help but step forward and asked.

The road ahead was blocked, Mu Qingyan looked up at Ye Ting with a smile on his face, couldn't help frowning, and said, "Why are you here?"

When Ye Ting heard this, he smiled and said, "I should have asked you what I said, my father's study is here, are you coming to find my father?"

"Uh......" Mu Qingyan was stunned when she heard this, she had walked so far unconsciously, from one courtyard to another, and she didn't even know it at all.

"Where's my uncle?"

"Well, my father is handling official business inside, and since he entered the imperial court as an official, he has handled more things. Ye Ting nodded and said.

"Oh, then I won't bother him!" said Mu Qingyan, who turned her head and walked outside.

Ye Ting chased after him and asked, "If there is anything you want to ask your father, I can ask on my behalf." ”

"No!" Mu Qingyan refused directly, and then turned around and walked out.

Ye Ting still didn't leave, followed aside, walked for a while, and finally asked, "Yan'er, don't you even ask me why I'm not in the mansion recently, why have you only started to appear in the past few days?"

Hearing this, Mu Qingyan stopped, didn't look back, didn't look at Ye Ting, and said lightly: "This is not what I should ask, cousin, you know, isn't it?"

Hearing this, Ye Ting didn't follow anymore, but just stood quietly in the corridor and watched Mu Qingyan's slowly departing figure.

Luan'er, Yan'er looked at it in her eyes, her expression was light, what Miss said was right, the matter of the young master should not be asked by her, so it is not in line with the courtesy. Even if Miss doesn't take etiquette in her eyes, this is not pedantic etiquette but the degree between men and women!

Young Master Ye Ting asked Miss like this, it was already a passover!

Walking through the long corridor, Mu Qingyan's heart was full of doubts, and she always felt that her grandfather and grandmother were hiding a lot of things. And King's Landing seemed to dislike her coming to Ye Mansion alone, although he didn't say it, she could still feel it from his behavior......

With such a heart, I really don't know whether to be happy or not!

As for what it was, she couldn't say it, because of this indescribable feeling, she couldn't calm down.

"Ah......h

Suddenly, Mu Qingyan was grabbed by someone, walked forward, and screamed in fright.

Looking up and seeing that it was King's Landing, Mu Qingyan said a little angrily: "What are you doing here, you want to scare me to death! Let go!" shook it vigorously but didn't shake off his hand.

"Go back with this king!"

King's Landing had a calm face, and he didn't mean to let go, and continued to rely on his advantage to pull Mu Qingyan out.

Seeing this, Mu Qingyan hurriedly said, "We said we were going to have lunch here!"

"No more!" King's Landing remained unmoved.

"Then, I have to talk to my grandfather and grandmother, right?" Mu Qingyan was annoyed, what was wrong with King's Landing?

It's okay just now, and I said that I want to accompany her to lunch here, how can I say that it has changed?

It is said that women are fickle, and according to her, men are more fickle!

"No, someone will tell them. ”

"Will there really be? I don't think they will trust others, so I'd better go!" Walking on the road, Mu Qingyan looked at King's Landing's back and couldn't help but say.

"The king promises that they will believe it!"

Mu Qingyan listened to King's Landing's firm words, didn't say anything more, and walked out behind her.

The two walked out of the gate of the Ye Mansion one after the other.

Luan'er, Yan'er, Zhang Heng, hurry up and follow.

"Driving ......"

The groom shouted, the whip in his hand swung on the horse's back, and the carriage drove away from the capital in an instant.

Standing at the door, looking at the carriage that was moving away, Mu Rin's expression was faint.

Ye Ting's eyes flashed with injury, and then he covered it up.

It seems that Mu Qingyan knows what he has done, but she never says anything about it, nor does she give him any chance.

It seems that from the first time I met her, she was so decisive, and her actions were always so neat.

However, he is willing to do things that have no reward......

Sitting in the carriage, Mu Qingyan looked at King's Landing and asked curiously, "Husband, what's wrong with you?"

Do you want to be so stingy?

After speaking, seeing that King's Landing didn't speak, Mu Qingyan immediately leaned on his shoulder and said, "It's not cold, I'll give you warmth." Then, he hugged the man behind him.

King's Landing felt that the little hands were not at ease at all, his brows moved slightly, his eyes lowered, he looked at the little woman holding his waist, and said, "Do you give this king warmth, or do you give you warmth?"

Hearing this, Mu Qingyan raised her head from his arms, looked at him, smiled, and said, "This is called yin and yang harmony." ”

"You're talking nonsense fooling this king again!" said King's Landing softly.

How could the carriage of the Four Princes' Mansion not be warm enough, it was obvious that she was teasing him again. Damn goblins!

Holding it like this, somewhere in his body began to heat like magma again.

"No, no, this is from the book!" Mu Qingyan rubbed in his arms and said softly.

King's Landing snorted lightly, watching her almost bury herself in his arms, and said, "Mu Qingyan!"

"Husband, what are you doing?" Mu Qingyan replied lazily, it was very comfortable to hold King's Landing, more comfortable than holding a stove, and she didn't want to go down.

"Go down!" King's Landing forced two words out of his mouth.

"I don't!" Mu Qingyan just hugged him, and when she didn't get into the carriage just now, her hands were about to be frozen.

"This king has something important to tell you, come down!" King's Landing said with an uncomfortable look on his face.

Mu Qingyan didn't believe it, knowing that he was uncomfortable at the moment, she looked up at him and asked, "What's the matter?"

"About the Emperor's ......"
