The Beloved Imperial Consort - Chapter 128

[128. Chapter 128 Confusion]

Seeing Mu Xiyao’s posture, everyone felt uneasy for a while.

If she can’t catch anyone this time, and she can’t speak her mind, the concubine will not take out her anger at will, and spread her anger on others, right? Now that His Highness is away, Concubine Helian does not know if he can suppress the arrogance of Concubine Side?

Especially the inner responder who planned to sacrifice the maid to protect himself, and now his heart is even tighter. The plan was disrupted, the news was cut off, and the maid could not be killed. How to avoid this Mu’s method next? The most suspicious thing is that she took out this note. Could it be that she missed something? How did she know about Yin Ji’s secret code name?

After the incident, I haven’t received any news from there. Could it be that Yin Ji in the mansion of the Fifth Highness has been captured? Thinking of this, the woman’s vest suddenly felt a chill. They are the most powerful pieces of the Lord, although they are not very familiar with each other, but they know some secrets. If Yin Ji couldn’t bear it… His Royal Highness Sixth Prince could be ruthless, and she couldn’t imagine her ending at all.

“You are tired today. Tomorrow’s interrogation will be much simpler. Just ask the servants in each mansion, and let the aunt specially invited by the chief steward take a look at it.” Mu Xiyao looked at the note and smiled. Unpredictable. “This Yin Ji is careful, the paper, pen and ink are extremely ordinary. It’s a pity that the person who delivered

the letter was really careless and accidentally left some traces on it, but it was enough to identify the real murderer.”

After returning, the maid will be handed over to Director Tian to take care of her first, and after tomorrow, those who have done nothing wrong will naturally be put back to continue serving.”

One after another, Mu Xiyao summoned Wei Zhen to warn her carefully.

“Let the dark guard keep an eye on their next actions, who they have met, and what they have asked, and record all of them one by one. There must be no omissions.”

Wei Zhen now sees Master Yao’s methods, and secretly exclaims cunning! This is an out-and-out scheming! The note was ordinary, and it was very clean, with no flaws as mentioned by the master.

Master Yao made the note so important, and put it in the box and locked it in front of everyone, looking extremely cautious. This time, the person should be confused and even more hesitant to go back. In addition, the personal maid was detained by the master again, there is a ghost in my heart, I am afraid that I will not be able to live in peace tonight, and I don’t need to sleep at all.

Master Yao wanted to go out of the house with empty gloves to hide for a long time, but has not yet found out. This idea is really clever. The woman that His Highness valued was as expected as he was, very capable.

As Wei Zhen expected, when the four of them went back, except for An Shi, who had long been ruled out of suspicion, the rest of them were all busy and busy.

The next morning, Wei Zhen handed over the news that the dark guard had been on duty all night with a look of joy.

Mu Xiyao opened the secret report and nodded with satisfaction after reading it. That’s like talking! This play took three full days, and no matter how cunning the fox was, he finally showed his tail.

But the rest are not worry-free characters, let’s see what they do! Tsk tsk, fortunately she wasn’t a concubine, otherwise she wouldn’t have been pissed off. She is impatient, holding the handle of these people in her hand, and she can leave it for a rainy day.

Unexpectedly, catching a traitor this time would bring unexpected rewards. If she had known that so much information could be made out of such a simple matter, she should have tossed the entire backyard. It’s a pity that it’s too late to say anything now. Who made her goals too clear and her hands and feet too fast, I really regret it.

“If that’s the case, let’s add another fire.” Mu Xiyao smiled brightly, but explained that what Wei Zhen had done was extremely treacherous.

As the saying goes, when she sends a Buddha to the West, she will find a traitor, of course, she has to step on it hard and prepare a few more hands, there will never be a mistake. Besides, if that person hadn’t been guilty of being a thief, she wouldn’t be able to use this trick. This is called self-inflicted sin, karma, and there are many reasons.

When Wei Zhen heard Mu Xiyao’s explanation, his eyes immediately became bright. The look in Mu Xiyao’s eyes was filled with awe.

Master Yao’s brain is too good, but fortunately, apart from being noisy, he has a good temperament and is harmless. Otherwise, there would be very few women left in the yard.

“Master, this subordinate has doubts, I don’t know if I should ask?” His Highness didn’t dare to ask any more words, but Master Yao is easier to talk about.

Mu Xiyao stopped fiddling with the potted plant, and raised her chin slightly, indicating that he is welcome, just speak.

When Zhao mama saw the master’s action, she really couldn’t see it in her heart. This is a good teaching rule, the master can do a good job, but he has to follow his temperament and be indifferent in front of outsiders. Where is the action of raising the chin, what is the action that a noble lady should have? This habit is clearly a strong market flavor. His Highness is also true, the favored master is becoming less and less serious about the rules. If you want the little master to follow suit in the future, what’s so great about this?

Wei Zhen has long been used to Mu Xiyao’s unruly behavior, and just pretended that she hadn’t seen her inappropriate behavior.

“My subordinate was sent to the Princess Mansion to ‘exchange’ golden-crowned hummingbirds by His Royal Highness that day. Afterwards, His Highness left the Mansion and brought the master back smoothly. What is the reason for this? Previously, the subordinates and others were obviously very hard to find, but there was no progress at all. .” Wei Zhen asked very aggrieved, especially mentioning the word exchange, that expression couldn’t hide the embarrassment.

As soon as he remembered the forced buying incident, Wei Zhen felt that his face was dull. After that, he lost to a hummingbird that he had never heard of, which made him haunt him for a long time.

Mu Xiyao was stunned when she heard the meaning of his words. “You are looking for a golden-crowned hummingbird? Not an alpine crested ibis?

” Why is this?

Wei Zhen’s eyelids jumped when he was asked by Mu Xiyao. Could it be what he thought?

“Master, can the alpine crested ibis also do?”

“Naturally it is feasible. The sachet I carried that day contained the main ingredient of raspberry and safflower, which is the favorite thing of the alpine crested ibis. Although the golden-crowned hummingbird is also very sensitive to it, But it’s because the raspberry safflower is the companion flower of the dipteran. The hummingbird is only interested in the dipteran.” The

alpine crested ibis is not only easy to find, but also more responsive to the smell she leaves behind.

Mu Xiyao’s explanation to Wei Zhen was half-truth. What she used that day was not the spice, but one of the few remaining prescriptions in the space she had almost forgotten. How can ordinary spices last so long, and still have time to track the smell the next day?

The first time she dealt with the assassin sent by the eldest prince, she used the elixir stored in the space. Unfortunately, after entering the palace, many medicinal materials were forbidden in the palace, and the medicine could not be prepared, so Mu Xiyao left the space idle. It was not until that day that she was almost forced to exhaustion, that she had a flash of inspiration, and remembered that there were still some medicines that might be used.

With a self-help method, all that is missing is a person who can pass her message on. Coincidentally, that day, Zong Zhenglin asked the servant to go to the side hall to find Zong Zhengming. On the way, he met Mo Wanqing’s maid, the chess piece that Mu Xiyao had buried in the Fifth Prince’s Mansion.

The two searched for the Fifth Highness in the front yard, and inadvertently met Mu Xiyao and his party on the bamboo forest path. In view of being on guard by the two thieves, Mu Xiyao did not dare to take the risk to call for help, for fear that the thieves would jump over the wall and her fish would die. He could only risk spreading the medicinal herbs on the maid when the two groups of people were in the wrong place, and constantly glanced at the hem of her clothes with his eyes.

Afraid that she wouldn’t notice the difference, Mu Xiyao pretended to lose her temper. She was very bitter and mean at the time. She shouted at the little servant for scratching her silk dress with the lantern in her hand, and threatened to go back and have a good medical examination. .

When the two thieves saw her attack, they thought they were taking the opportunity to seek trouble, and they were about to riot, but they saw that she was quite disgusted and snorted, but they were so arrogant and left first. While walking, he lifted up the hem of his clothes rather sadly, saying that the good material that His Royal Highness had specially found, it was so disgusting that it was smeared like this.

Having been troubled by Mu Xiyao, in the eyes of the thief, it was just a woman’s family cherishing the clothes given by her beloved man. For Mu Xiyao, it was a turning point in life.

When the maid followed to plead guilty, the gleam in her eyes made Mu Xiyao extremely satisfied. As expected of the good seedlings she picked out in the first place, it worked just fine, and it really lived up to her expectations.

Mu Xiyao was especially gratified when he recalled that person who could be reused. When Yin Ji is arrested, Mu Xiting’s side should also be cleaned up. Find a chance to pick that girl out and give her a good future, or make a new face, let her enter the house with her sister Chunlan, bring a little bun, and be an aunt in charge.

Mu Xiyao was thinking about it carefully, but Wei Zhen had a sad expression on her face. She was so aggrieved that even Mu Xiyao couldn’t see it, “Mr. Wei, what does this mean?” Why are you so sad?

“His Royal Highness, His Highness asked the servants to snatch the golden-crowned hummingbird from the fourth princess’ residence. It’s just because the alpine crested ibis means unlucky, and it is a widow bird.”

Mu Xiyao was choked up by herself and her face flushed. Zong Zhenglin, a man, has a bottom line for making trouble it is good?

It’s just a bird, do you need to associate it with her? Besides, what happened to the widow? The big boss hasn’t died yet, how dare she remarry?

Mu Xiyao glared at Wei Zhen angrily. This kind of unreliable and embarrassing thing will be mentioned later, waiting to be cleaned up! The Sixth Highness himself was hypocritical, and the guards he taught were not much better.

Mu Xiyao saw that he was also ashamed for robbing the broken bird in the princess’ mansion, and he was wicked for a while.

“Why don’t you run again, Lord Wei? The concubine really loves the tens of thousands of taels of silver notes from my highness. You go and get the money back from the concubine? As for the bird, you say it can fly away?

” Crooked into a broken bird pestle, she pretended to be melancholy in front of her, and it seemed that people’s mood could not be lifted.

Wei Zhen was frightened by Mu Xiyao’s ambiguity, and immediately resigned. This one is even more ruthless than His Royal Highness, he doesn’t give money, and wants to be greedy for ink hummingbirds. These two masters are really…a perfect match.

“Master, the letter from Your Highness has arrived.” Wei Zhen just got out, but was blocked by an urgent letter from His Highness Sixth.

Seeing his vigilant look, Mu Xiyao laughed and scolded, “Go quickly, who can force you to pay the debt?”

Wei Zhen handed over the letter, smeared oil on his feet, and disappeared with a swoosh.
