After rebirth, she was forced to marry by the sickly prince

Chapter 117 117, new clues found

The wizard thought for a moment and took out a jade hairpin from his sleeve, "The little wizard took this from the mistress's head that day. He originally wanted to pawn it for money. But it turned out that it had the name of the Zheng family on it... so

Xiao Wu can't sell it, Your Highness, please take a look..."

After saying that, he offered it with both hands.

Xiao Qiyu asked Asuo to take it and took a look. It really had the word "Zheng Ya" on it. This was the dowry of the Zheng family.

"Zheng, what else do you have to say?"

Xiao Qiyu shouted sternly and gestured to the hairpin: "Could it be that he got this through forgery?"

When Mrs. Zheng saw it, her eyes immediately went straight: Yes, that was indeed her hairpin.

It's over, now, how is she going to cover her lie?

Aunt Shi next to her was the most active, and she immediately shouted: "What kind of evidence is this? This hairpin has been stolen a long time ago. This wizard must have deliberately come to harm my mistress."

"Yes, the hairpin has been lost..."

But Zheng's tone of voice was weak, obviously due to a guilty conscience.

How could Xiao Qiyu not see that they were using this reason to excuse themselves?

The wizard suddenly became anxious: "Your Highness, everything I said is the truth... She is trying to default on her debt..."

"Your Highness, can you listen to me for a few words?"

Mu Yunjiang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly interrupted.

Xiao Qiyu looked at her, "Well, tell me."

"First sentence, as far as I know, there is a secret passage in the eldest aunt's room that leads directly to the outside of the house. Therefore, if the eldest aunt wants to go out privately, she does not need to go through the front door at all."

In her previous life, she had been the head of this family and had seen the floor plan of the Mu family, so she knew this very well. She had used the secret passage several times.

When Mrs. Zheng heard this, she was shocked and frightened. She turned around and shouted angrily: "Xiao Qi, how can you talk nonsense?"

"Whether it's nonsense or not, we'll find out later if we have someone check it out. Your Highness, the secret passage is located on the dark wall behind the account book cabinet where the eldest aunt settles accounts. There is a jade Buddha on the cabinet. Turn the jade Buddha four times.

Twist it two more turns and it will open."

She spoke with great detail.

Zheng's face turned pale, and she was horrified: How did this damn girl know this secret?

The old lady's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and she thought to herself: It's over, it's all over now.

Mu Jiang was lying on the ground, wanting to die.

Mu Yuntao was stunned for a moment after hearing this. How could this girl know so much about the situation in the East Courtyard? This was the first time he had heard of this secret secret in the General's Mansion for so many years!

"Asuo, go and check..."

"yes!"

Asuo took the order and left.

Mu Yunjiang clasped his fists and continued: "In addition, I already know the answer to why they framed me...

"Just now when I left the west courtyard, I met my cousin Mu Yunxiang. She said that my first cousin Mu Yuncheng was kidnapped. The other party asked my eldest aunt to kill me, otherwise my first cousin would be the one who died..."

As soon as these words came out, Zheng's whole body was trembling.

I secretly hate myself, why did Yunxiang tell this little bitch about this?

When Xiao Qiyu heard this, his sharp eyes fell on Mu Jiang, and he immediately asked: "Is this possible?"

This man was originally a majestic person. His words and expression would reveal a kind of coercion. Now, he was so stern, Mu Jiang was already frightened, and he kowtowed hurriedly:

"Your Highness, this is a capital crime. I should stop it, but recently, too many unlucky things have happened in my house. Not only has something happened to the second room, but something has happened to us as well.

"My eldest son was kidnapped, my second daughter had an inexplicable miscarriage at her husband's house, my third son became blind due to strange circumstances, my fifth daughter was disqualified from the draft, and my sixth daughter developed a high fever..."

"Because so many bizarre things happened, Chen's wife discussed with her mother and invited a wizard. Because Chen and others thought that this incident was related to Xiao Qi's return home, they wanted the wizard to exorcise her.

Exorcism...

"I don't know that my wife has the intention to murder Xiao Qi, so I would like to ask His Highness the Third Prince to investigate..."

Not to mention, he doesn't know about this.

In fact, Zheng and the old lady planned this matter together and did not let the head of the family know. He was not wrong at all. They only told Mu Jiang that they wanted to drive away evil spirits, and Xiao Qi was most likely possessed by evil spirits.

When Mrs. Zheng saw that her man had put all the responsibility on herself, she felt angry: "Mu Jiang, you ungrateful bitch. I did all this for this family, and you actually took it out on me."

...Are you a man?"

"Go back to your highness, my son really doesn't know!"

But the old lady decided that this matter had nothing to do with her son - if this stupid woman wanted to drag the head of the family into trouble, then their Mu family would be completely ruined.

"This matter was planned by Lao Shen and Mrs. Zheng, all because of the many misfortunes that happened in the family. What's more, the eldest grandson in the family was kidnapped. If we don't follow their wishes, the eldest grandson's life will not be saved... Therefore, we can only use the little

Bo Da..."

In order to save her son, the old lady was heartbroken and admitted frankly.

Mrs. Zheng closed her eyes secretly, feeling hatred and panic in her heart. At this moment, she was afraid that she was going to be in disaster.

"A small fight for a big one? For the same life, Mu Yuncheng's life will be saved, but Mu Yunjiang's life will have to be sacrificed?"

Xiao Qiyu looked at the vicious mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, his eyes turned cold, and his heart was extremely angry.

If it weren't for Mu Yunjiang's excellent underwater skills, he would have been killed earlier this morning, and he would have lost the chance to cure the bloodthirsty Gu.

At this moment, Asuo came back and reported: "Back to Your Highness, there is indeed a secret passage in Zheng's account..."

After Xiao Qiyu heard this, he slapped the table and immediately made a verdict: "As the matron and grandmother of a family, you can kill innocent people like this. From today on, the two of you will go to the nunnery to eat and pray for Mu Yun.

Jiang prays for blessings and is not allowed to return to the Mu family for ten years."

This punishment is simply equivalent to killing Zheng - occasionally she is asked to go to the nunnery to have a vegetarian meal, which she finds boring. Now that she has to live there for ten years, what should she do?

She immediately begged for mercy: "Please, Your Highness, seeing that nothing happened to Xiao Qi, please forgive me..."

"Ms. Zheng, if Mu Yunjiang hadn't been so capable, would she still be alive now? If you think you can survive by drowning a living person in the water, fine, let's go to Shuo River now, and we will lock you up in this palace.

In the bamboo cage, sink for a moment to see if you can survive..."

Xiao Qiyu asked sharply.

Mrs. Zheng was so frightened that she fell silent.

If you hold your breath for a moment, are you still a human being?

She really didn't understand how Mu Yunjiang survived?

Xiao Qiyu immediately looked at Mu Yunjiang: "Miss Mu Qi, do you think such a sentence is feasible?"

Mu Yunjiang said quickly: "Her Highness Xie San, the daughter of the people, upholds justice. But right now, whether or not to be punished is not the most important thing. Finding my cousin is the most important thing... I think that person is very likely to be involved in death."

It’s related to the people behind the scenes…”

"Why is there such an association?"

Why is it related to the "Death Room" again?

Xiao Qiyu's expression condensed again.

"Can you lend me a step?"

Mu Yunjiang glanced at the elders of the Mu family and the Deng family who were kneeling on the ground, and asked in a low voice.

Xiao Qiyu nodded: "Let's talk outside."

The two of them left the hall one after the other.

Mu Jiang collapsed on the ground, his forehead covered with sweat. He really didn't understand. Why did His Highness the Third Prince and Xiao Qi seem to have such a good relationship?

Mrs. Zheng was even more desperate: She wanted to get rid of this little bitch, but why did she get involved in it?

*

Outside the house.

Beside the flower bed.

Xiao Qiyu and Mu Yunjiang stood together and were about to ask when Mu Yunjiang sneezed and his whole body trembled. He instinctively leaned up and wanted to touch his forehead:

"Do you have a cold?"

In autumn, the river water is getting cold. After soaking for so long, it is easy to hurt the body.

Mu Yunjiang was stunned, took a step back, kept a distance from him, and replied: "No problem."

I saw his hand froze in mid-air.

Xiao Qiyu realized that he had gone too far and quickly retracted his hand. At the same time, he regained his indifferent expression: "Tell me! Why do you say that?"

"I was possessed by a soul for half a year before, and it was given to me by Luo Jun. The only one who knows about this is you, besides him and A Jian.

"I went to Yaoshi Village to seek an antidote. There is a medicine in this prescription, which is actually a kind of poison. Although it can detoxify me, it will remain in my body for a while.

"Today I was captured by the guards of the Mu family because someone from the Mu family lit a kind of incense. The incense interacted with the residual poison in my body, causing me to lose my internal strength and unable to resist...

"If Death wasn't causing trouble, how could it be so cleverly calculated?"

Mu Yunjiang told everything he had speculated.

Xiao Qiyu thought, indeed, the other party cleverly pushed Mu Yunjiang into a dead end: "Then how did you escape? Aren't your hands and feet tied up?"

"After I fell into the water, the poison was relieved. As soon as my internal strength was restored, I broke the rope and came up..."

These words made Xiao Qiyu frown: "Are you contradicting yourself? Didn't you just say that you have lost all your inner strength?"

"There's no contradiction. It's just like this. The poison in my body will be released when I fall into the water.

"That person deliberately put me to death, and also deliberately let me escape from death.

"If this happens, I will break up with the Mu family's eldest family, and I will no longer be able to help my eldest cousin. My eldest cousin will die.

"Because of such a deep hatred, I will no longer care about the fact that my third cousin is blind.

"The eldest cousin dies, and the third cousin becomes a cripple, so there will be no successor in the eldest family..."

She guessed that her uncle would also die by then.

The other party wants to kill the big man step by step.

Although Luo Jun is dead, the mysterious person behind the scenes still wants to help her become the head of the family.

Xiao Qiyu didn't quite understand what he heard: "Even if your eldest cousin dies, what's the benefit to you and what's the benefit to that person?"

Mu Yunjiang couldn't explain it. She knew some things about her previous life, but she couldn't tell him about them.

"Anyway, let's save our eldest cousin first...then the men of our Mu family may be killed one by one..."

She felt vaguely uneasy in her heart: "I...can't tell you the reason...to put it simply, I have to protect them."

"Okay, then let's ask Mu Jiang how Mu Yuncheng disappeared... Let's go..." He didn't press any further, but chose to believe it.

Mu Yunjiang glanced at him blankly, but he was actually extremely confused. How did he become so easy to talk to?

"Your Highness."

She stopped him.

He turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"

She had a complex look on her face: "Why do you trust me so much?"

He looked calm, said nothing, turned around and walked away.

Mu Yunjiang, the second monk, was confused and had to follow him into the main hall.

"Mu Jiang, let me ask you, what happened in Muyuncheng?"

Walking up to Mu Jiang, Xiao Qiyu asked in a deep voice.

"Back to Your Highness, the night before yesterday, Yuncheng Xiumu disappeared when he came back. The day before yesterday, we searched for him all day, but we couldn't find him. Yesterday afternoon, Mrs. Zheng received a letter and learned that Yuncheng had been kidnapped...

…

"Our Yuncheng family has both civil and military skills. He will go missing. The person who captured him must be a person with extraordinary martial arts skills... It was only after he had no choice but to come up with the countermeasure today that he deliberately deceived Xiao Qi.

I came here just to save Yuncheng..."

The old lady knelt on the ground and told the whole story: "None of this has anything to do with my son. My son came back today after hearing that Yuncheng was missing..."

She deliberately removed Mu Jiang completely - the old lady knew very well that if something happened to the head of the family, their family would be completely finished.

"Did Mu Yuncheng come back and Xiu Mu was kidnapped on the way?"

Xiao Qiyu asked again.

"yes."

"Where's the letter!"

Mrs. Zheng quickly went to get the letter.

Xiao Qiyu looked at it, and there was only one line written on it: "If you want to save your son's life, you must drown Mu Yunjiang within three days."

As expected, he came for Mu Yunjiang. He also emphasized how he must die. It was obvious that it must have been planned in advance.

Mu Yunjiang took it over and smelled it, then closed his eyes and discerned the smell on it.

Her sense of smell is excellent, and she quickly smelled various smells from above:

"The ink used is fragrant ink. Fragrant ink is the favorite ink used by literati and calligraphers.

"The paper is made from sandalwood bamboo from Hudong. Therefore, these two smells are the strongest.

"The most commonly used place for this kind of ink and paper is Longmen Academy. Apart from that, only major families like to use it. Because it is relatively expensive, ordinary poor scholars cannot afford it... But Longmen Academy does not

Likewise, the Four Treasures of the Study over there are free for students to use."

"And Longmen Academy is on the way back to Muyun City from Beiying Camp."

Xiao Qiyu felt it was a bit magical. It was just an ordinary document, but it actually allowed her to decipher invisible clues. It was really amazing!

When she frowned and stopped, he continued: "And these two places are only a few miles apart... so..."

"Your Highness, hurry up and go to Longmen Academy immediately..."

Mu Yunjiang suddenly opened his eyes and yelled.

Xiao Qiyu also understood the relationship and immediately ordered: "Asuo, prepare your horse..."

"yes."

Asuo responded and ran out.

Xiao Qiyu turned to look at Mu Jiang: "General Mu, come with us. Your wife and mother will be dealt with after they come back..."

"yes."

The group of people hurriedly walked out of the main hall and came to the door of the mansion.

Mu Yunjiang jumped on a horse and galloped away.

Xiao Qiyu followed closely behind.

Seeing Xiao Qi's agility, Mu Jiang was confused: Who did this child Xiao Qi worship as his master? How come each of his abilities became more powerful than the last?
