Pu Liu went to get some clothes and put them on Mu Yan. Seeing that she looked unhappy, he said, "The snow skin honey dew belongs to the girl. It doesn't matter if the girl doesn't give it to you. It's all up to you..."

Mu Yan snorted coldly when she heard this: "If I have such a good medicine but don't give it to my eighth sister, will I be called selfish and heartless?"

Pu Liu was startled, then hesitated and then said the truth: "You and Miss Eight are twin sisters after all, more connected by blood than ordinary sisters. You obviously have medicine that can heal Miss Eight's scars, but you don't take it out and just watch. Seeing the eighth girl leaving scars and not caring about it, my wife must be sad."

"Not only will my mother be sad, but my grandmother and father will also look down on me, right?"

"This..." Pu Liu was a little embarrassed and could only say: "Snow muscle honey dew is so precious, I will return it to Miss Eight when she uses it up."

"Humph, I'm surprised she would pay me back!"

Others don’t know what Mu Wan is like, how can Mu Yan know?

Pu Liu saw that she was a little impatient, so he went to rush Pu Cao, "Why haven't you found it after so long?"

"The bottle of Snow Muscle Honeydew is missing, and I can't find it anywhere!" Pu Cao's face turned pale with anxiety. That was something even the Imperial Concubine was reluctant to use!

"What!" Pu Liu was also surprised, "Did you not put it back in its original place after you used it last time?"

"How is that possible? That thing is so precious, I kept a close eye on it! The girl only used it twice. I remember it really well!"

"Why is that missing?"

The two girls rummaged through the boxes and cabinets and searched everywhere they could, but there was still no sign of Xuekimilu, so they had to come over and give Mu Yan a reply: "Girl, things are missing..."

"Why is it missing?"

Mu Yan was relieved when she heard that the thing was missing. Even if she lost that thing, she would not let Mu Wan use it!

"Okay, Pu Cao will tell me to go to Asakusa Residence with me first, and Pu Liu will lead the little girls to find it first!"

"Yes, girl, I'll look for you again..."

The sun was setting. Li Qingyi had just finished dinner and was about to go to the yard to eat when Chang Lan came over happily and reported, "Girl, sir, you are outside and want to take the girl out for a while."

"Hmm? Where to go?"

"How could this slave know?" Changlan pushed Li Qingyi into the house to change clothes, "My lord, I asked you to change into clothes that are more convenient for you to move around!"

Li Qingyi thought to himself, is it possible that Qin Zeng wants to take him to climb over whose wall?

After changing her clothes, Changlan Changning took her to avoid the maids and women in the mansion, to the base of the northernmost wall of the Wei mansion, and then he drove her with one arm over the top of the wall.

Li Qingyi was glad that his small grappling skills were not in vain, he landed steadily and did not embarrass himself in front of Qin Zeng.

"Where are we going?"

Qin Zeng, as always, cherished his words like gold, "Get on the carriage first."

Li Qingyi glanced at the ground and didn't see any feet.

Just when she was thinking about how to climb onto the carriage without looking too embarrassed, she felt her waist being protected by two big hands, and then her body lightened up and she was already standing on the carriage.

Li Qingyi looked back and saw that Qin Zeng looked as usual, but Changlan Changning had a smile on his face. Li Qingyi glared at them and quickly got into the carriage.

Qin Zeng came in later, and Li Qingyi secretly touched her waist. The power conveyed by that big hand just now seemed to still be there, making her feel very at ease.

"Where are we going?"

Qin Zeng pretended not to notice her touching her waist and replied, "Didn't you say last time that you wanted me to choose a girl from the Mu family?"

Li Qingyi heard this and asked curiously: "Has your Excellency made your choice?"

Qin Zeng's expression remained unchanged, "You come with me to choose."

Li Qingyi vomited blood, "Where are you going? The Mu family?"

So Qin Zeng asked her to wear clothes that were easy to move because he wanted to lead her over the walls of the Mu family?

"It's so late at night, isn't it..."

If Qin Zeng catches someone changing clothes and taking a shower, wouldn't she be at a loss?

Qin Zeng seemed to have seen through her thoughts, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised, and he said: "Something happened in the Mu family today. I will take you to Mrs. Mu's yard to listen to the excitement."

Li Qingyi touched his nose awkwardly, turned his head and looked out the window, pretending that he didn't think about anything.

The carriage stopped far away from Mu's house. Qin Zeng took Li Qingyi out of the car, avoiding people, and went to Mu's house.

The guards of the Mu family are not vegetarians, but with Qin Zeng's skill, he is definitely at the top of the carnivorous chain, and he easily led Li Qingyi to Mrs. Mu's Evergreen Courtyard.

When the two of them lay down on the roof quietly, everyone in the Mu Mansion was gathering together.

Mrs. Mu Er rarely expresses her opinions. She protects the ninth girl Mu Yao in her arms and accuses Mu Yan of being a white-eyed wolf, saying that she is unkind and unkind to her sisters.

Mrs. Mu San, who had always protected her children, did not even refute, and looked at Mu Yan with a disappointed and complicated expression.

Li Qingyi was greatly surprised, "What did Mu Yan do to look like she has been criticized by thousands of people?"

Qin Zeng lowered his voice, and his voice became even deeper, and explained: "Mu Wan injured his hands and feet today. The third lady, Nian Shi, remembered that there was a bottle of snow muscle honey dew given by Concubine Mu in her room, so she asked her to get it. Mu Wan removed the scar, and Mu Yan agreed on the spot, went back to look for it, and then said that the thing was lost."

"Everything around the master is taken care of by special personnel. Not everyone can enter the house on weekdays, and things will not be lost easily. And it is such a coincidence, could it be..."

Qin Zeng said "Yeah", "Someone deliberately stole the Snow Muscle Honey Dew."

Li Qingyi nodded, "Although Snow Muscle Honeydew is precious, it can only remove scars and promote muscle growth, and it cannot save people's lives. Besides Mu Guifei, Mu Yan is the only one in the capital who has a bottle. Stealing this would be too conspicuous! If If you want to steal something in exchange for money, you should take something that is not easy to be discovered. Therefore, when someone took the snow muscle honey dew, it was not to cure a disease, nor to exchange for money, but to put Mu Yan into such a situation."

Qin Zeng seemed to have become accustomed to Li Qingyi's acumen and glanced at her approvingly.

He saw several girls coming from the corridor, putting their hands on Li Qingyi's head and lowering her head.

Li Qingyi was also afraid of being discovered, so he exposed his eyes mischievously, moved closer to Qin Zeng, and whispered to him: "No wonder I heard a few girls gossiping when I came in just now."

As soon as she finished speaking, several girls who came from the corridor began to bite their ears quietly.

"That bottle of Snow Muscle Honey Dew is very rare. The Imperial Concubine only has one bottle, not even the Queen. I'm afraid the seventh girl just said it verbally and didn't really want to give it to her."

"Yes, I think Miss Seven must have regretted her words as soon as she said them, so she said she couldn't find her."

"Although the seventh and eighth girls are usually noisy, they are twins after all. I didn't expect that something happened, and the seventh girl would be so selfish..."

After hearing these words, Li Qingyi couldn't help but said: "Whether Mu Yan did it on purpose or not, she has grown up like a jewel, and hearing such gossip will inevitably hurt her self-esteem. I'm afraid it will cause a lot of trouble!"

"You are right. Mu Yan lost her temper and gave a severe lesson to several maids who chewed their tongues. In order to clear up her grievances, Mu Yan returned to the yard again to find Snow Muscle Honey Dew, but she could do whatever she wanted. I searched and dug almost three feet into the entire yard, but couldn't find it. After everyone in the Mu family found out, they didn't say anything. They just said they could find other medicine and give it to Mu Wan."

"The more others say this, the more Mu Yan will feel that she is not believed, right?"

The two of them were very close. Qin Zeng felt Li Qingyi's orchid breath, and couldn't help but be distracted for a while. After a while, he said:

"She was afraid that she was scratching her heart so tightly that she had nowhere to vent her anger. Thinking that Mu Wan was injured because of a dispute with Mu Yao, she ran to the second room and made a big fuss, and even made a move. The second wife of the Mu family has never been very prominent. This time, she really pushed the second lady to the point where she directly complained to the Evergreen Courtyard and asked Mrs. Mu to make the decision. Coincidentally, Mu Wan heard about this incident and went to Mu Wan regardless of her injury. Yan wanted to persuade her in the courtyard, but unexpectedly saw the bottle of Snow Muscle Honey Dew in the dowry."

Li Qingyi didn't notice Qin Zeng's distraction and raised his eyebrows: "You said you lost something, but you were caught by the real owner?"

This is simply like tearing off Mu Yan’s face and parading it in public!

At this time in Mrs. Mu's room, Mu Wan's eyes were full of disappointment and sadness, and she sobbed aggrievedly: "Sister, even if you don't give me the Snow Muscle Honey Dew, I won't complain, but if you do this, Does it mean that in your heart, my sister is not as good as a bottle of snow muscle honey dew? Or does my sister think that I am short-sighted and covet my sister's golden medicine?"

Mu Yan was very confused, surprised and embarrassed, "I didn't! The girls have searched all over..."

"Sister, stop talking!" Mu Wan interrupted her heartbrokenly and said: "When my mother asked my sister to get the Snow Muscle Honey Dew, my sister clearly asked a girl to get it, but she had to go there herself. Are you afraid that you want to hide this thing from your sister?"

Mu Yan felt like she was being roasted on the fire, "Don't accuse me unjustly!"

She didn't know how to explain it at all, nor did she know why the bottle of Snow Skin Honey Dew that couldn't be found appeared inexplicably in her dowry.

This incident made her feel ashamed. When she explained to others, everyone smiled and said she didn't mean it, but secretly they thought she was selfish and cruel.

"Why don't you believe me!"

Li Qingyi lay on the roof, listening to Mu Yan's hysterical questioning, and looked at Qin Zeng, "How was Mu Wan injured?"

Qin Zeng had obviously asked someone about it a long time ago and said, "It's a nice day today and it's perfect for flying a kite. Mu Wan took the dragonfly kite he drew by himself and went to the garden. Unexpectedly, Mu Yao was also there. Mu Wan and Mu Yao Saying hello, Mu Yao was distracted, and the kite hung on the tree and the string was broken. Mu Yao lost interest and said she wouldn't let it go. She happened to go back to eat the plum blossom cake just made in the small kitchen. Mu Wan saw that she was a little bit Unhappy, she asked Du Ruo to go back and get a kite to accompany Mu Yao. Mu Yao said no, but Mu Wan said she must accompany her with a kite, lest people find out and think she is bullying her sister. Mu Yao ignored her. As he turned around to leave, Mu Wan stepped forward and pulled her, but he slipped on a rock before he could stand firmly."
