The fourth prince wanted to show off as a prince in front of Qin Zeng, but no matter what, he could not overpower the other party's inherent power.
He gritted his teeth secretly, this eunuch actually looked more like a prince than him!
Seeing that the fourth prince was silent, Mu Yuanchang panicked and said, "Don't worry, Admiral, Miss Li strayed into a secret passage and was seriously injured. I will do my best to heal her!"
What a mistake!
Li Qingyi had to admire Mu Yuanchang's good use of Chunqiu brushwork!
Mu Yuanchang took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and said, "This is Baijie Dan, which can cure hundreds of poisons."
Nagasawa stepped forward to take it, took out the porcelain bottle, opened it, smelled it, and looked at Qin Zeng in embarrassment: "Sir, I can't tell whether this is an antidote or not."
Qin Zengli remained motionless in the distance, but his meaning was obvious.
Mu Yuanchang was very sensible and stepped forward to take a pill from the porcelain bottle and took it on the spot.
Nagasawa breathed a sigh of relief and handed the medicine to Isatis.
Isatis' hands were almost trembling, and she nervously poured out the pills and fed them to Li Qingyi's lips.
Qin Zeng's face softened a little when he saw that she had taken it. He looked at Mu Yuanchang and said, "Should the Mu family give me an explanation?"
Mu Yuanchang burst into tears, "Sir, it was the official's faulty teaching... Such a disaster has happened to the Mu family! Until now, the official has been unable to defend her, and has expelled her from the Mu family. From then on, Mu Yuanchang was in tears. There is no more Mu Ying in our family! Let Master Qin decide whether she lives or dies!"
Qin Zeng sneered, "What do you mean, these 'spice' are all Miss Mu San's handiwork? I only heard that the Fourth Highness is good at incense, but I didn't expect that Miss Mu San is the one who pursues the ultimate in incense."
Qin Zhengsheng had no idea that the person standing opposite him was a distinguished prince, and he stared at the fourth prince unabashedly.
Mu Yuanchang was afraid that the fourth prince would confront him head-on, so he hurriedly explained: "Ying'er has loved beauty since she was a child. I don't know where she heard this crooked thing. She actually believed in some beauty-preserving magic that uses living people to make incense, and she hid it from me. When you do such evil things in private..."
The fourth prince said coldly from the side, "Ying'er is still young, but she was just confused for a moment!"
"You can think of someone's life as useless in a moment of confusion, and do such an unconscionable thing! Your Highness, there is no need to plead for her anymore!"
Mu Yuanchang's voice was extremely urgent, as if he was reminding the fourth prince not to do anything for Mu Ying that would get Dongchang's attention.
In Dongchang's eyes, there is only the emperor.
What kind of prince, if he wants to touch Qin Zeng, he still has to ask the emperor if he agrees!
Mu Yuanchang glanced at Li Qingyi in Qin Zeng's arms. He didn't know whether Qin Zeng wanted to take the opportunity to suppress the Mu family, or whether he was really angry because of this woman.
"Master Qin, what Mu Ying has done cannot be forgiven by the lower officials. They have already used family methods on her! Her legs are disabled at this time and she is already a cripple!"
Qin Zeng had already heard from Shilan that Mu Ying's feet were Li Qingyi's handiwork. Did Mu Yuanchang say this as a favor to him?
He said calmly: "I would like to hear what she has to say."
When Mu Yuanchang heard this, he immediately expressed his position, "My lord, please follow me."
In order to avoid leaking the news, Mu Ying was directly arranged to be treated in a stone room.
Li Qingyi leaned weakly in Qin Zeng's arms, looking at the desolate Mu Ying on the stone bed not far away, his heart felt cold.
The nature of the Mu family is no different from that of the Wei family.
Or it should be said that most of the powerful and aristocratic families who rise and fall in the center of power are like this.
Like her grandfather, there are really only a few people who can't bear the temptation of their descendants to be dragged away by power and withdraw from the court.
Mu Ying could no longer bring benefits to the Mu family, so it was inevitable to take the blame for the fourth prince.
Mu Yuanchang did not speak. He looked at Mu Ying, who was lying on the stone bed like a rag. A trace of regret flashed in his eyes, but what could he do!
Both these brothers and sisters are his favorites, but the fourth prince is much more important to the Mu family than Mu Ying...
If one of them has to be sacrificed, it can only be Mu Ying!
The fourth prince walked up to Mu Ying step by step, his scarlet eyes almost bleeding from tears.
In the eyes of outsiders, the fourth prince had always loved his cousin very much. No one suspected anything about his appearance now. Even Mu Yuanchang only thought that the fourth prince only loved his biological sister and had no idea about their relationship. Unethical things.
Mu Ying had a splitting headache, and her whole body felt as if she had been tortured in all kinds of ways in the eighteenth level of hell.
She felt someone coming and opened her eyes vaguely.
It was dark, with only a faint yellowish light illuminating the surrounding things. She even wondered if she was dead.
No, how could she die? !
She hasn't cut that bitch Li Qingyi into pieces yet!
The flame of hatred suddenly burned fiercely, forcing her mind to become clearer.
And the next moment, she saw the hideous and ugly knife wound on the fourth prince's face!
Mu Ying sat up in shock, but felt a sharp pain in her feet and screamed heartbreakingly.
The voice was hoarse, harsh and unpleasant.
Li Qingyi's expression changed slightly. It seemed that Mu Ying had been given a mute drug and would never be able to speak again from now on!
Mu Yuanchang is really ruthless.
The fourth prince on the side lowered his eyes, not even daring to look at Mu Ying's doubtful gaze.
Li Qingyi saw a wet mark on the ground in front of him and sighed in his heart. The fourth prince was extremely sinful, but he never treated Mu Ying coldly.
Mu Ying seemed frightened by her own voice.
She was stunned for a moment, then suddenly covered her throat with her hands, trying to speak, but found that she couldn't pronounce any simple syllable clearly.
She stretched out her hands and grabbed the sleeves of the Fourth Prince's robe, shaking her violently, as if hoping that the other prince would give her an explanation.
But the fourth prince remained silent.
Mu Ying looked at her father again.
However, the regret in Mu Yuanchang's heart could not shake his decision at all.
Mu Ying didn't get the answer, so she couldn't help but look around, and suddenly saw Qin Zengheng standing not far away holding Li Qingyi!
Shock, anger, and resentment surged in her heart. Regardless of the pain in her feet, she made an unpleasant sound in her throat and rushed towards Li Qingyi, but fell headfirst under the stone bed.
"Yinger!"
The fourth prince hugged her, trembling uncontrollably.
Mu Ying raised her eyes and looked at Qin Zeng with all her strength.
No one can ignore the infatuation in his eyes!
However, Qin Zeng's eyes only glanced at her face, then he looked away and said, "It seems that Miss Mu San has no way to defend herself."
Mu Yuanchang bowed and said: "Mu Ying's crime is extremely heinous and is a shame to our Mu family. I will never tolerate this woman..."
Mu Ying suddenly raised her head when she heard this.
She looked at Mu Yuanchang and listened to his conversation with Qin Zeng, and already understood why she was mute.
She slowly turned her gaze to the fourth prince, her eyes were splitting, and she grabbed the fourth prince's face with sharp nails. The fourth prince was caught by her unpreparedly, and his already disfigured face had five more streaks of hideous blood. cold.
The fourth prince retreated suddenly, looking at Mu Ying who was like a ghost with pain, "Ying'er!"
Qin Zeng was extremely disgusted with the behavior of everyone in the Mu family and did not want to entangle him any more. He looked at Mu Yuanchang, an old fox, and squinted his eyes. It's too clean, this matter still needs to be clarified, and I will make a decision after my investigation is clear."
Mu Yuanchang bowed with a look of shame on his face and said, "I have no objection..."
After hearing this, Qin Zeng didn't look at them again, turned around and walked towards the exit.
Li Qingyi took the antidote and had regained a lot of strength. He said softly: "Sir, please put me down."
Qin Zeng frowned and glanced at her, ignored her, and told Nagaze: "You have someone prepare the carriage up there."
Nagasawa and Isam looked at each other, not knowing what Qin Zeng was planning, with Li Qingyi being held in Qin Zeng's arms, and with the Mu family present.
Nagasawa remembered what had been spread in Beijing a few days ago that Miss Li did not love her husband but her eunuch...
After today, I'm afraid rumors will fly all over the sky again.
