Li Miaoran asked: "Wouldn't the Emperor blame you?"
Wei Jin'er rarely interjected, "General Lei was deeply trusted and respected by the late emperor, but none of his sons had the talent to make a decisive move on the battlefield. Otherwise, the emperor would not have allowed the rise of the Mu family. We originally expected General Lei to The grandchildren can produce several generals, but in the end they gave birth to a grandson named Lei Ye, who is still cynical."
Zhen Zhen said with a smile: "The Emperor likes Prince Lei quite a lot. He even praised him for his true nature before! It's just a matter of scolding him if you think about it."
Li Miaoran asked curiously: "How do you know so much?"
"I heard it all from my second cousin!"
Li Qingyi is funny. Zhen Zhen's second cousin is Chen Yan, the current commander of the Jinyi Guards. I don't know how Qin Zeng tolerates his foul mouth.
Thinking of Qin Zeng, he had been tracing the life experience of the fourth prince recently, and Li Qingyi was busy setting a trap for Wei Baozhu, so the two had not seen each other for some time.
Weird.
Li Qingyi walked away for a while, and when he came back to his senses, several people had already changed the topic.
*****
Jiang Shun was ordered by Li Qingyi to stare at Mu Yuanchang, the eldest son of the Mu family, for many days, but found nothing.
If it is true as the ninth girl of the Mu family said, Mr. Mu wrote a marriage letter to someone else before he married Mrs. Mu, and later regretted it and married another Mrs. Mu, then he would have stopped marrying and remarried, but he would be punished .
This woman is a disaster to Mu Yuanchang. With the nature of the Mu family, how could they keep her alive until now?
It couldn't be that Mu Yuanchang couldn't bear to part with her, right?
Or, this woman had a bargaining chip in her hand, which prevented Mu Yuanchang from killing her.
But, where was this woman hidden by Mu Yuanchang?
The golden light of the setting sun shone on the back of Jiang Shun's head, and he suddenly felt a sudden inspiration.
Maybe he didn't hide the person at all, but just put the person next to him with a different identity?
In this way, you avoid the risk of being noticed when you sneak in to meet.
But that woman holds Mu Yuanchang's hand, so she shouldn't be willing to just be a slave, right?
Originally, she was Mu Yuanchang's first wife. Even being a concubine was an insult, so how could she become a slave?
So, in what capacity would this woman exist near Mu Yuanchang?
Jiang Shun walked randomly among the bustling crowd and unknowingly walked into the alley opposite Mu's Mansion.
There is a very tall apricot tree here. Looking towards Mu Mansion from this tree, it happens to be closest to Mu Yuanchang's study. Although the view is not very clear, it is much safer. After all, the guards of Mu Mansion are not vegetarians.
The sky is getting dark, and there are fewer and fewer people walking around outside. The high and low streets and walls gradually disappear into nothingness under this sky.
It was extremely quiet all around. Jiang Shun climbed up the tree and stared at the Mu Mansion opposite in a daze.
After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Shun, whose legs and feet were numb, was about to change his position when a light spot suddenly lit up in the alley opposite.
It seemed that it was at the corner door of Mu's Mansion. The light spot was walking straight in the direction of Jiang Shun. The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and Jiang Shun couldn't help but tense up.
The man was holding a lantern in his hand, and was wearing a green skirt and a fur-edged brocade cloak, with a hood covering his entire face.
Jiang Shun could only see her hand holding the lantern, and found that the half of the woman's exposed fingers seemed to be particularly thick. He couldn't help but shake his head. With such hands, she was definitely not Mu Yuanchang's woman.
Jiang Shun didn't dare to breathe. The man crossed the apricot tree, continued walking into the alley, and then disappeared through a corner door.
Finally, there was something unusual, and he decided to go over and have a look without hesitation.
Climbing up the alley wall, he watched from a distance as the light spot passed from one courtyard to another.
He discovered that this place was actually connected to a remote corner gate in the courtyard next to the Mu family.
Jiang Shun was excited, and he followed carefully. The woman hung a lantern at the door of a room, opened the door and walked in.
A woman came from the house
A human voice said, "What do you want from me?"
Jiang Shun leaned close to the window and listened to the people inside.
He did not hear the imaginary woman's answer, but a man's voice came, "You never told me that you have a daughter?"
The woman was silent for a moment and said, "She is already dead. What's the use of telling her?"
The man's voice seemed a little excited: "That's your and my daughter! You should tell me!"
"Is this what you came here to ask? There is really no need."
A lonely voice came from the man's mouth, "Except for my status, I can give you anything. What happened back then was my fault, but I couldn't help myself. When I returned to Shangjing, my family had already made an engagement for me. , how could I disobey my parents’ orders? Haven’t I compensated you enough over the years?”
The woman let out a chuckle, and the sarcasm in it was self-evident: "A marriage contract? Parents' orders? Then what is the marriage letter you wrote to me with your own hands?"
Jiang Shun already understood that there was no third person in the room, and the woman who just came was simply a man disguised as a woman! It’s Master Mu Mu Yuanchang!
Such a dignified man can actually do such a thing...
"Aman!" There was a trace of anger in Mu Yuanchang's voice.
"That child was born to me and has nothing to do with you." The woman called "Aman" had a hint of coldness and stubbornness in her voice.
Mu Yuanchang said: "It doesn't matter if you refuse to forgive me, I promise you that when the matter is over, I will take you back..."
Aman shook his head, "It's already this time, why are you talking about this? More than ten years have passed, and I've had enough of such sneaky days! Even if I go back with you, I'm just a slave."
"Aman, over the years, we have met more and more often. I wish I could be by your side all the time. Aren't you still satisfied?"
"satisfy?"
Aman looked at the person opposite and seemed to be completely irritated by his question. She said: "Why should I be satisfied? I am your wife! I am the one who can stand by your side openly! Why should I be like this?" Hiding like in the outer room, you want me to endure this kind of pain all the time? Don't think I will believe your soft words, you just want me to hand over the marriage certificate! Mu Lang, don't force me, if I What do you think will happen to you if the marriage letter you wrote to me is made public? If you stop your wife and remarry, your career and your future will all be wiped out!"
Mu Yuanchang seemed to be slightly angry. He clenched his fists but still held back. He stretched out his hand to pull Aman into his arms and comforted him: "Aman, how could it be? You and I have been in love for so many years..."
"Shut up!" Aman pushed her away, not paying attention to what he wanted to say. She covered her face: "I was older than you, but now I am just a MILF, and I still have a few more years of beauty. , everything is just a mirror, I won’t believe your words, and I won’t hand over the marriage certificate... Just go..."
Marriage certificate.
Jiang Shun's heart almost jumped out of his stomach.
