In the early morning sky, the ink color gradually faded, and the blue and white colors gradually penetrated upward, until the sky returned to brightness.
She stretched out her hand to open the attic window, and the cool air breathed into her nose, making her mind gradually clear.
When Mu Yao first came to contact Li Qingyi and wanted to go to Fanghua Palace for a banquet with them, Li Qingyi discussed the matter of the twins from the third room of the Mu family with Wei Jiner.
In the circle of noble ladies, Mu Wan is famous for her good temperament and gentleness. No noble lady in the capital has anything bad to say about her. Even if they are a little jealous of her appearance and status in their hearts, they dare not say it on their faces. Half a bad word about her, otherwise, the person himself will be despised and affirmed.
These are Wei Jin'er's original words.
But Li Qingyi felt that it was not an easy task to manage the personnel around him like this.
Therefore, Mu Wan will not be a difficult person to control.
Later, Li Qingyi casually asked Mu Yao.
In Mu Yao's words, Mu Wan seemed to be often bullied by the domineering Mu Yan. In fact, it was Mu Yan who suffered in the end, but everyone still felt that it was Mu Wan who was wronged and still forgave others.
This girl Mu Ba is obviously not a softie. If Qin Zeng decides to fix Mu Yan, she will definitely cause a bloody storm.
The sound of opening the window alerted Heng Wu who was keeping watch at night. She came in and saw Li Qingyi sitting in front of the window. She quickly took some clothes and put them on her: "Why did the girl wake up so early? It's just Yinshi."
"I got up when I couldn't sleep. Chang Lan got up."
She is getting up to practice Qigong in the morning. The girl wants to ask her to come in? "
"No, I'm going to do a set of boxing, and then I'll wash up and have breakfast when I get back."
Li Qingyi changed into cheap clothes and went out, practicing with Changlan Changning for half an hour.
While others are practicing martial arts, she is strengthening her body.
After it was over, Li Qingyi called to Changlan, "Go to Mu Yao later and ask her to find an opportunity to reveal the details of Mu Wan's injury to Mu Yan."
Changlan's eyes showed excitement, "Girl, are you going to make trouble again?"
Li Qingyi rolled his eyes at her, "It's obviously Qin Zeng who wants to cause trouble!"
*****
Mu family.
Mu Yan went to Changqingyuan to pay her respects as usual. Her grandmother, Mrs. Mu, treated her no differently than usual, and her mother, Nian, did not dwell on this matter, but Mu Yan still felt uneasy.
Because her "crime" has not been cleared.
The government just suppressed the matter and "admitted" her statement because they wanted to protect her reputation.
This made Mu Yan very uncomfortable.
She obviously didn't do anything, but now she wants everyone to pretend that she didn't do anything!
This feeling is really uncomfortable!
On the way back from Changqingyuan, Mu Yan was sullen and silent. Passing by the garden rockery, she suddenly heard someone whispering inside.
Pu Cao vaguely heard the words "Snow Muscle Honey Dew" and thought they were talking about their girl again, so she wanted to find out the gossipers and punish them severely.
Mu Yan grabbed her, stepped over the railing of the corridor, and hid in the rockery next to her.
"What are you going to do, girl?"
"Shhh."
Mu Yan signaled her to be silent and stand still. The master and servant leaned against the rockery and heard a conversation coming over there, "The rules in our house have always been strict, and the servants usually don't dare to gossip. Why did it spread so quickly this time?" sharp?"
"Yeah, it's like a gust of wind. The eighth girl over there just found Snow Skin Honey Dew in the seventh girl's room and started making a fuss. It spread throughout the third room. However, the third lady didn't know what was going on. It was the eighth girl who was crying. She didn’t hear about it until I ran into her house.”
"Tell me, is someone trying to provoke a fight between the two girls?"
"You mean... Miss Ninth? Miss Eight was injured that day because she had a dispute with her."
"I can't see, but I know what happened that day. The eighth girl bumped into the ninth girl flying a kite in the garden. When the ninth girl was distracted, the string broke, but she didn't let the eighth girl pay for the kite. It was the eighth girl who insisted on paying for her. A kite, Miss Ninth ignored it, she went to pull it, and then it fell."
"So, if it's none of Miss Ninth's business, who else could it be? It's really shameful! Miss Eight is fine, but Miss Seven is miserable! Gossips have spread outside the house, saying that Miss Seven is ruthless and so on. …”
"Oh, okay, okay, we've rested enough. Let's not talk too much. Be careful of getting into trouble and get to work quickly."
Then the footsteps gradually faded away, and Mu Yan let go of her breath until she could no longer hear any movement.
Pu Cao frowned, "Could it be that... someone is really deliberately provoking this?"
Mu Yan gritted her teeth, "What provocation! The relationship between me and Lao Ba is not good to begin with, so why do we need to provoke him? Besides, Lao Ba is fine now, and I am the only one unlucky!"
"That……"
Mu Yan said with a stern face, "Check carefully and see where the gossip first spread in the house."
"Yes, girl, this slave will pay attention."
When the master and servant returned to Ling Xiaxuan, Mu Yan thought of something again and asked, "Have you really put away the Snow Muscle Honey Dew and not touched it?"
Pu Cao nodded quickly, "I remember clearly that the last time I used Snow Muscle Honey Dew, it was because the girl's hand was scratched on the back of her hand by the sharp thorns of a rose flower. After the wound healed, a faint white mark was left. I took the Snow Muscle Honey Dew and applied it on you, but the girl accidentally rubbed it off just after applying it, so I came over and asked the slave to apply it again, and then the slave put the Snow Muscle Honey Dew directly back into the medicine box, and the girl saw it with her own eyes."
When Pu Liu heard this, he also remembered: "Yes, that seems to be the case. At that time, the slave girl also said that girls should be careful with such expensive medicine. After using it, there will be no more."
When Mu Yan heard this, she also remembered it. She narrowed her eyes and said, "Go get the box containing the medicine and let me take a look."
"Yes." Pu Cao turned around and picked up the box.
There are many medicine bottles in the one-foot-square wooden box, of different sizes, colors and materials, but they are all neatly placed. In order to quickly find a certain medicine, Pucao has marked the medicine bottles. .
She pointed to a vacant space and said, "This box contains more valuable and rare pills. The vacant space here is where the Snow Muscle Honey Dew was previously placed."
"Have you ever been away from the key to this box?"
"No, I can guarantee that since I took over the key to this box, I have always carried it with me. Even when taking a bath, I will put it where I can see it, and then put it away directly and never leave it!"
Pu Liu nodded, indicating that she was right, and she did the same thing with the key to the box containing the money.
Mu Yan asked: "Is there any way to open the lock without a key?"
The two girls looked at each other and Pu Cao said: "This... it should be possible. Don't those thieves and thieves have a way to open the lock without a key?"
"Then...is there any way to know whether this lock has been picked open?"
