Chapter 117: Chapter 117(2/2)
"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?
