Chapter 192: Catching an unexpected person
Yanglinghou immediately panicked and asked tremblingly: "Your Highness, what you said..."
Chu Lingxiu didn't even look at him, he just said "That's what the Marquis meant", then turned and left.
At the beginning, Chu Lingxiu still valued the Yanglinghou Mansion very much. Although the Mu family had no real power and Yanglinghou’s brain was not very powerful, he was still one of the great Chu princes and had raised a lot of people. Having a daughter like Mu Xueliu who is both beautiful and talented, especially being married to the Yining Marquis Mansion, who has a high status and unparalleled wealth, will definitely be of great help in the future.
But as time went by, one ridiculous incident after another in the Yanglinghou Mansion continued to be revealed. First, Mu Ziqian doted on his concubine and killed his wife, then Yanglinghou secretly kept an illegitimate wife, and then Yanglinghou’s wife was partial to others. When his niece grandly appeared in front of the public with Lin Xuefu, Chu Lingxiu's patience with the Yangling Marquis Mansion gradually ran out. Fortunately, Mu Xueliu blew a lot of pillow wind from the side, which prevented Chu Lingxiu from letting go. The Yangling Marquis Mansion kicked out the team from 껧.
During this period, Mu Xueliu reminded the Mu family many times, and even Chu Lingxiu warned Marquis Yangling several times in private, but there was no improvement at all in the Mu family.
What made Chu Lingxiu want to completely separate from the Yanglinghou Mansion was when Chu Lingxi was assassinated and Shen Yi'an was imprisoned. At that time, Chu Lingxiu first publicly spoke for Shen Yi'an in the court, and then secretly searched for clues to help Shen Yi'an reverse the case. But in the end, the Yangling Marquis Mansion just threw away Shen Qing's letter of divorce, and then Mu Ziqian changed it Shen Qing almost divorced her husband publicly in front of the emperor, and Chu Lingxiu was completely disappointed in Yanglinghou Mansion. He was a waste that could not be dragged away, so there was no need to worry about it.
It wasn't until Chu Lingxiu's figure disappeared from sight for a long time that Yangling Hou finally came back to his senses. He looked at Mu Ziqian with a pale face, as if asking for confirmation, "Qian'er, His Highness has given up on us, right?"
Mu Ziqian pursed his lips and remained silent, really not knowing how to respond to Marquis Yangling.
At this moment, news came again from the servant outside the door that Wang Huai, the eunuch beside the emperor, had arrived.
Yangling Marquis could not think about anything else and quickly took Mu Ziqian to the main hall to greet him.
Looking at the haggard-looking Yangling Marquis, Wang Huai couldn't help but sigh in his heart: The legitimate daughter was favored in the Prince's Mansion, and the legitimate son married the legitimate daughter of the Yining Marquis Mansion. It was obvious that he had a good hand, but he was beaten to pieces by Yangling Marquis. .
However, when he met the eyes of Marquis Yangling, there was a smile on his lips, "Master Marquis, Your Majesty invites you and the Third Young Master to enter the palace."
Marquis Yangling's heart sank and he asked in a low voice: "My lord, do you know why your majesty called me?"
Wang Huai shook his head, "Back to the Marquis, I don't know. I will know when the Marquis comes to see Your Majesty in the palace."
…
Not long after Yanglinghou's son entered the palace, Shen Qing received news. Also passed along was the news that Chu Lingxiu and Mu Xueliu were having trouble with Yanglinghou's mansion.
Shen Qing smiled. Everyone in the Mu family didn't know what it meant to be content. They had high aspirations, but one and the other were both brainless. It was reasonable that they would end up like this.
As for Mu Xueliu's break with the Yangling Hou Mansion, although it was not in Shen Qing's expectation, it has to be said that Mu Xueliu's move was excellent.
After all, those brainless people from the Mu family who want a lot of things will really not provide much help other than holding Mu Xueliu back.
As for the emperor's intention of summoning the two of them into the palace, Shen Qing didn't have to think about it, knowing that it was punishment. The anger that had been accumulated many times exploded at the same time, and the Yangling Marquis Mansion might not have any room to turn around this time.
Lu Yan was teasing Tuanzi who was sleeping soundly. When he heard the news about Yanglinghou Mansion, a happy smile appeared on his lips, "I guess Mu Ziqian will be expelled from Shengjing this time."
Although the Marquis of Yangling has lost the emperor's heart, he is still the Marquis of Da Chu. The emperor will not take back the Mu family's title. At best, he will only let him live in the Yangling Marquis Mansion. However, Mu Ziqian is different. , to do this kind of thing openly at the mother's funeral not only violates filial piety, but also has extremely negative consequences. Shi놋귷깇 must bear all the blame.
After being woken up again, Tuanzi glared at Lu Yan with a "meow" sound, then stood up, took two steps, climbed into Shen Qing's arms, found a comfortable position and continued to sleep.
Shen Qing glanced at Lu Yan and said, "Just be happy if you are happy. Why are you always making trouble for Tuanzi?"
Lu Yan coughed slightly, he couldn't say that he was jealous of a cat, so he changed the subject and removed the sleeping hibiscus from his fingertips, "Jiaojiao, look, does he look better than before?" ?”
Shen Qing lowered his eyes and saw that Fusang Gu was now a bright blood red color, and the two tentacles on its head were becoming more erect, and it was obviously much more energetic than before.
So Shen Qing praised, "It's well maintained, so how do you use this thing?"
Lu Yan nodded and was about to speak when he saw Tuanzi, who was asleep a moment ago, suddenly open his eyes, a pair of azure eyes fixed on the Fusang Gu on Lu Yan's fingertips.
Fusang Gu also sensed it and crawled up from Lu Yan's fingertips. Its two tentacles swayed gently towards the dumpling. The next moment it seemed to respond, and it disappeared directly into Lu Yan's fingertips.
This time, no matter how Lu Yan called, Fusang Gu would not come out.
Unable to feel the fusang Gu's breath, Tuanzi lay down again and huddled in Shen Qing's arms without moving.
Shen Qing was very surprised, "Fusang Gu is afraid of Tuanzi?"
Lu Yan nodded thoughtfully, "That should be the case. I have established some contact with 돗 in the past few days, and I can already faintly sense 돗's emotions. 돗 is very scared now."
Raising her hand to caress the fur of the dumpling, Shen Qing smiled and said, "What a treasure."
Even the most mysterious poisonous insects in southern Xinjiang are extremely afraid of Tuanzi, and Tuanzi's identity really makes Shen Qing more and more curious.
Suddenly thinking of something, Shen Qing looked at Lu Yan, "Tuanzi is so precious, is it really okay for you to take her out of the Mo family?"
Lu Yan's face paused, "It should be something." After all, Mo Wuchen is no longer brave enough to go home.
Afraid that Shen Qing would think too much, Lu Yan smiled and comforted, "Don't worry, since my grandparents and uncle didn't send me a message, it means that the problem is not too big. If you can't get angry anymore, just beat Mo Wuchen up."
Shen Qing: "..."
Mo Wuchen: I have been living smoothly for more than ten years, and the only disaster is your inhuman cousin!
The two chatted in the house for a while, and suddenly there was a knock on the door outside. It was Chanyi.
"Sister, Ling Yi sent a message."
"Come in."
When Chan Yi entered the room, she saw Shen Qing leaning on the couch, holding the sleeping cat in her arms, with a leisurely look on her face.
Lu Yan sat on the chair next to her, looking at her tenderly.
Chan Yi said in her heart that she came at the wrong time, and quickly handed the note to Shen Qing and left.
Shen Qing opened the note, and Lu Yan came over with a curious look on his face, and saw that there were only three short contents on it, but the amount of information contained was huge.
First, the Fifth Prince was in danger. On the surface, it was an assassination, but in fact it was done by the Thousand Poison Sect.
Second, Tan Ji and his group had been arrested, but Tan Ji was fake as expected, and she had committed suicide on the spot.
However, although Tan Ji died, they caught an unexpected person.
