Chapter 18: The Son-in-law of the Hou Mansion
Puzzled, Mu Wan'er simply didn't think about it anymore, but went to continue to form her own forces, leaving Xie Yu's affairs behind.
At the same time, she didn't have time to take care of the Mu family's affairs, and she didn't know anything about what had happened to the Mu family recently.
Haifeng inadvertently learned Mu Wan'er's identity, and after hearing about the Mu family's recent events, he began to hesitate to tell Mu Wan'er.
After struggling again and again to no avail, Haifeng planned to go with the flow and tell Mu Wan'er about it if he could see Mu Wan'er recently.
In the evening, Mu Wan'er appeared at the side gate of the temple, and Haifeng thought about walking over.
Mu Wan'er raised her eyebrows, received Haifeng's signal, and handed the copper coin she was carrying to Haifeng to pretend to reward.
"Xiaotang, I want to eat candied fruit, you can go to the neighborhood and buy some back." Mu Wan'er looked at Xiaotang who came out with her and said.
Xiaotang didn't doubt him, nodded and asked Mu Wan'er to wait for him at the gate of the temple, and then walked towards the place where the candied fruit was sold.
There was no one next to them, Mu Wan'er and Haifeng came to the alley.
"Is there something going on in the palace?" Mu Wan'er asked.
Haifeng shook his head, "I got a message here, it's about the Mu family, maybe the girl already knows the news, but I think this matter is also a big deal, maybe the girl hasn't heard of it." ”
Recently, Mu Wan'er really hasn't paid attention to the Mu family's affairs, and seeing Haifeng's serious appearance, she can also understand that this matter is definitely not simple.
"What is it?"
"It's Miss Zhang Ningyu, who has recently been discussing marriage with the concubine of the Hou Mansion on the basis of the Mu family, this kind of thing can be big or small, and I don't know if it is big or small in the girl's place." SITC said truthfully.
Hearing this, Mu Wan'er's phoenix eyes narrowed, and she sneered, everything that should come is here.
Do it again, she will definitely not repeat the mistakes of the past, this time, she will also destroy the family relationship between Zhang Ningyu and the concubine of the Hou Mansion, and she will not let Zhang Ningyu rely on it.
Mu Wan'er raised her eyes to look at Haifeng and said, "You did a good job, this is exactly what I want to know, but now I want you to help me investigate the matter of the Hou Mansion's sister-in-law, remember, don't be known by others." ”
Haifeng responded and left in a hurry, Mu Wan'er pursed her lips and thought about it, and heard Xiaotang calling herself.
"Miss, how did you get here?" Xiaotang picked up the candied fruit and asked suspiciously.
Mu Wan'er shook her head, indicating that it was nothing, and then followed Xiaotang back to the temple.
Xie Yu overheard the guards talking about the fact that Mu Wan'er was asking Haifeng to investigate the matter of the Hou Mansion's sister-in-law recently, and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and ask for details.
The guards did not ask Haifeng for details, but heard that Mu Wan'er asked Haifeng and others to keep an eye on the Hou Mansion's sister-in-law, and they had to tell her anything about it.
Xie Yu thought that Mu Wan'er was interested in the Hou Mansion's sister-in-law, after all, in the eyes of everyone, the Hou Mansion's sister-in-law was indeed a personable young man, and there were many girls in the capital, and Mu Wan'er was also a girl of flower age, which was indeed normal.
However, where is Xie Yu willing to Mu Wan'er to look sideways at others?
He squinted and stared out the window, the anger that emanated from his body made the guard silently shut his mouth.
"Actually, Miss Mu investigated the young master of the Hou Mansion, maybe she suddenly remembered? Or is it boring? The guard said cautiously under pressure.
Hearing this, Xie Yu sneered, raised his eyes and looked at the guard coldly, "Do you think this king is stupid or Wan'er has nothing to do?" ”
The guards did not dare to speak, trying to reduce their presence.
When Mu Wan'er saw Xie Yu again, she could also feel Xie Yu's anger all over her body, and she couldn't help but be curious, what was it that could make the God of War who was fighting on the battlefield show such an expression.
"Has Your Highness been troubled lately?" Mu Wan'er poured tea and put it in front of Xie Yu, sat opposite and asked.
"Does the girl know the sister-in-law of the Hou Mansion?" Xie Yu took a sip of boiling hot tea and asked casually.
Mu Wan'er couldn't figure out why Xie Yu suddenly mentioned the concubine of the Hou Mansion for a while, raised her eyebrows and looked at Xie Yu, took a sip of tea, and then opened her mouth without being salty, "Naturally I know." ”
Sure enough, I fell in love with the concubine of the Hou Mansion!
Xie Yu thought indignantly in his heart, and the air pressure around his body was lower.
Mu Wan'er didn't notice it.
"Then what kind of person do you think, what kind of person is the concubine of the Hou Mansion?" Xie Yu continued to ask.
Mu Wan'er thought about it carefully, propped her chin and replied: "I haven't actually seen the concubine of the Hou Mansion, but I have heard from others that this concubine of the Hou Mansion is a talent, and he is the object of the affection of many daughters......
"It's all nonsense, it's just a lie to a little girl like you." Xie Yu put down the teacup heavily, and said with a straight face, "Actually, the concubine of the Hou Mansion is a hypocrite, not to mention two faces, and often goes to visit the Qinglou, maybe there are many lovers living outside." ”
"Also, in fact, the concubine of the Hou Mansion is not as civil and martial as you seem......"
Xie Yu ridiculed the Hou Mansion's concubine from beginning to end, degraded to nothing and even wrong everywhere, Mu Wan'er was puzzled, and didn't quite understand why Xie Yu suddenly had such a big prejudice against the Hou Mansion's concubine.
Xie Yu was relieved after finishing speaking, and as soon as he looked up, he saw Mu Wan'er looking at him for a moment, and he realized that he was a little out of shape.
He coughed lightly against his lips, and when he got up to leave, he couldn't help but tell again, "Remember what I told you, don't be deceived by his appearance, he is not what you think he is." ”
After that, Xie Yu left in a hurry, for fear that Mu Wan'er would see what Xie was doing.
Mu Wan'er stared at Xie Yu's back for a long time, and then couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh in a low voice.
"Miss, what are you laughing at?" Xiaotang asked.
Mu Wan'er cleared her throat and shook her head, "It's nothing." ”
Mu Wan'er didn't think deeply about what Xie Yu told her about the true face of the Hou Mansion's sister-in-law, and planned to act according to her plan.
After sending Xiaotang away, Mu Wan'er dressed up in disguise, and went straight to the Qinglou, she tied all the green silk behind her head, and her face was handsome in men's clothes, although she was a little thin, but it made many girls look sideways.
When the old bustard saw Mu Wan'er, he felt that this person was very faced, and greeted him in person, "This face, haven't you been here before?" ”
"What? Don't accept new visitors? Mu Wan'er lowered her voice and asked rhetorically.
The old bustard smiled flatteringly, threw a flattering look at Mu Wan'er, and asked Mu Wan'er if she had a happy girl, but Mu Wan'er only thought that she was looking for a girl named "Yunni" by herself.
The old bustard was a little embarrassed when he heard this, "It's not that I don't allow it, but it's that this Yunni girl is not convenient to meet guests." ”
"It's not you and me who don't see the guests, do we? Besides, I made an appointment with Miss Yunni, and she asked me to come here to meet her, and if it is delayed, you should not be able to afford it, right? Mu Wan'er asked.
Although Yunni is a girl from Qinglou, but after digging deeper, it is actually the person raised here by the concubine of the Hou Mansion, and he has long stopped accepting guests, and the old bustard still has to respect Yunni a little.
