Chapter 97 Windfall
With Mu Yunge's insistence, the matter became settled, so Mu Zhizhao stopped talking.

Mu Yunge returned to Tingfengzhu, but Peilian was nowhere to be seen. Peixin and Peiying squatted in the yard talking strangely, and when they saw her, they all stood up.

"What were you muttering there?" Mu Yunge asked casually after washing his hands with the warm water brought by Peiying.

Peiying looked at Peixin, and Peixin stuck out her tongue, her tone was full of gloating: "Miss, you went out early today, maybe you haven't heard of it yet? It's the uncle of the Mu family who kidnapped the young master, who was imprisoned last night. When the old man Mu went to visit today, he... went crazy!"

"Crazy?" Mu Yunge narrowed his eyes: "Are you really crazy or are you pretending to be crazy?"

The law of the Great Wei does not punish lunatics. Could it be that they want to escape punishment only by this?

Pei Xin laughed and said: "It's really crazy. Hongmei in the young master's yard is good friends with the servant girl, and Hongmei's cousin is in the prison. I heard from his cousin that it wasn't long after Uncle Mu entered the prison last night. , so he screamed several times, saying that there was a ghost. The jailer went in and checked, but there was nothing, and he screamed again when he came out. After most of the night, there was a sudden silence. The cell door opened today, and everyone saw that Mr. Mu had disheveled hair and scratches from his nails all over his face. Mrs. Mu called him many times in a row, but he didn't seem to hear it. I kept talking nonsense, saying 'Juan'er, I didn't kill you, don't come to me if you want revenge', and said 'Shishi, I'm sorry for you'...Mr. After staring at him for a long time, I asked the doctor to come and see him. The doctor saw it and said he was insane!"

"Then what happened afterwards?" Mu Yunge became interested.

Peiying gave Peixin a white look, and then took over the conversation: "Okay, put away your frivolous appearance, the lady is not in good shape. Miss, Mr. Mu was originally imprisoned in the prison of Tizun Mansion. I planned to transfer him to the prison of the county government this afternoon, but when something like this happened, Mrs. Mu insisted on ransoming him, and there were reasons for this, so Mr. Song had no choice but to let him go."

"So he is in the Mu family compound now?" Mu Yunge nodded slightly.

Pei Xin chuckled again: "Miss, where is there such a compound in the Mu family compound? Last year's New Year's Eve, the firecrackers and fireworks to welcome the New Year somehow fell into the firewood room of the Mu family compound, and then disappeared. People are fine, but The entire Mu family compound was almost burned down."

Mu Yunge lowered his eyes, and the coldness flashed by.

She didn't believe that the firecrackers went off, and the kidnapping of Jinran was revealed, and something happened to the Mu family. How could it be such a coincidence?
Could it be... that woman was afraid that the news would leak out, so she wanted to kill her to silence her?
She is not in a hurry, since she knows who that woman is, she will definitely not let that woman make trouble in Mu's house again!
Mu Yunge raised her head, she didn't sympathize with the people in the Mu family's compound, these people have been bred by the Mu family for so many years, and they will decline sooner or later if they leave the Mu family.She looked at Peixin and Peiying amusedly: "Is this what you two were discussing just now?"

Pei Xin spoke quickly: "Of course not. Miss, Miss Biao and Mrs. Shen are here today."

"Really?" When Shen Jingyu was mentioned, Mu Yunge's attitude became cold: "What is she doing here?"

Peiying said: "Mrs. Shen and Miss Biao came to pay New Year's greetings to Madam. Although it was a New Year's greeting, she came empty-handed. Mrs. Shen kept asking why she didn't see the master. The disappointment on her face made Yushan angry." It’s broken. Miss Biao is also soft-spoken. Madam gave her a red envelope, and she was moved to tears. It’s really unlucky. The New Year’s Eve was crying at Mu’s house. Madam’s face was not good at that time..."

This was exactly what she and Peixin were discussing just now.

Mu Yunge frowned. When she first came back, she didn't see Aunt Xiao and Shen Jingyu, so she wanted to come and take the red envelope and go back.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Peiying thought she had said something wrong, and looked at Peixin in bewilderment.

Pei Xin shook her head, she didn't know what the lady who had always disliked Shen Jingyu was thinking.

The house was a little quiet, but the sound of hurried footsteps in the yard was very clear.Peixin and Mu Yunge looked at each other, opened the curtain and left the room.

It was Pei Lian who came, and she walked in a hurry, almost bumping into Pei Xin, Pei Xin asked in a low voice, "You are reckless, what are you doing?"

"Sister Peixin, I...I..." Peilian held the fiery little thing in her arms, almost crying with anxiety.

Peixin also saw her hugging the little fox Rufeng, and knowing that this was the young lady's new baby, she hurriedly let her in.

As soon as Peilian came in, she knelt on the ground and put Rufeng in her arms on the carpet.Rufeng curled up into a ball, trembling, raised his head to look at Mu Yunge with little strength, and buried his head between his paws listlessly.

Mu Yunge's heart trembled, and he stood up suddenly: "What's going on? What's wrong with Rufeng?"

She squatted down, stretched out her hand to smooth Rufeng's fur, and stroked it gently with her fingers.She was afraid that Rufeng might be injured, so she didn't dare to use force.

Pei Lian's eyes were red: "Miss will give Rufeng to the care of the servant. The servant is afraid that it will be hungry. This morning, I will go to the kitchen to make egg fried rice for Rufeng. The servant is busy making egg fried rice and put Rufeng in the kitchen. On the table next to the stove. There is a bowl of soup on the table, and the servant did not pay attention. He didn’t want to wait for the servant to make fried rice with eggs. When he turned around, Rufeng had already drank the bowl of soup. After drinking the soup, Rufeng After a while, I ate half a bowl of fried rice with eggs, played with plush balls in the house for a while, and then lay down in the nest. After dinner, the servants went to hug it, only to find that something was wrong with it, and the nest was also vomited dirty... ..."

Mu Yunge's hand was resting on Rufeng's stomach, feeling the small body trembling under her hand, her heart also throbbed.

After hearing Peilian's words, she didn't bother to blame Peilian for not being able to take care of her well, she raised her head and asked, "You said, Rufeng drank a bowl of soup in the kitchen?"

When Hug Rufeng came back last night, Pei Lian also fed it egg fried rice, nothing happened, the problem most likely lies in that bowl of soup!

Pei Lian nodded: "Well, it's a bowl of snow ginseng and deer antler soup. The servant asked the kitchen and said it was specially prepared for the master. It's just that the master went out too early today, so the soup was not sent to the master."

"I see. Get up." Pei Lian had already cleaned up the filth on Rufeng's body, and Rufeng nestled pitifully. Mu Yunge was afraid that it would feel uncomfortable, so she didn't dare to hug it.

She already had some calculations in her mind, she looked up at Peiying and said, "Go to the kitchen and get some of that bowl of soup for me to see."

Peiying went, came back after a while, and shook her head: "Miss, I have searched all over the room but there is no soup, probably the girl threw it away. But Rufeng probably overturned the bowl when drinking the soup, and the servant saw that there was a piece of soup on the table. The soup traces are soaked in the wood, and some powder was peeled with a knife. Look at it, miss."

As Peiying said, she spread out a piece of rice paper in front of the table, and there was indeed some brown powder on it.

Mu Yunge picked it up and put it on his nose to smell it, his complexion changed, and he put down the powder.

Pei Ying was paying attention to her expression, and hurriedly asked: "Miss, what did you see?"

"It's filled with sterilization medicine, a small amount of musk and saffron, and a chronic poison." Mu Yunge frowned and sneered, "The person who gave the medicine was careful, and the amount was well controlled. It's also covered up by the smell of deer antler and snow ginseng." , no wonder it has never been discovered."

These cold and hot medicines have small doses, and people may have to take them for a long time to show their effects; but Rufeng is small, and he drank another bowl, and he had an attack on the same day.

It was also like this that the mystery that Mu Yunge had not been able to find for a long time was revealed!
Mu Yunge picked up Rufeng, put it on the dressing table, and took out a few small bottles from the rightmost grid under the dressing table.She took out a green pill, held it in her hand and handed it to Rufeng.Rufeng also seemed to know that Mu Yunge was saving its life, obediently stuck out its little tongue, and rolled the pill down its stomach.

After a while, Rufeng's stomach growled.

Mu Yunge carried it to the corner of the yard again, and Rufeng let out a low cry, lying in the corner and venting quickly.

After diarrhea, Peilian cleaned it up again.When she was hugged back again, Rufeng seemed much more energetic, and obediently crawled into Mu Yunge's arms, rubbing her head against her.

Mu Yunge played with it for a while, and asked Peilian to take Rufeng away.But Peilian stretched out her hand to hug it, and it immediately stood up fiercely, its little paws desperately greeting Peilian.No matter what Peilian thinks of, she just can't get Rufeng away from Mu Yunge's arms.

There was no other way, Mu Yunge had no choice but to let it stay by her side, and asked Peilian to get something for it to eat again.

As soon as Peilian left, Rufeng also felt that the person in the way disappeared, and kept rubbing against Mu Yunge.

Mu Yunge glared at it, and it immediately lowered its head, playing with its little paw pitifully, with an extremely aggrieved look.

How can it be as reckless as its owner?
Mu Yunge was angry and laughed at the same time, the image of his son kept flashing in his heart, he couldn't help but soften his heart, and sat back at the table holding it with one hand.

"Miss, is it the drug given by the mysterious woman in Old Master Mu's mouth?" Pei Xin asked hesitantly.

Mu Yunge shook her head, she didn't know either.But these are not important for the time being, she knew earlier that there was poison in Mu Zhizhao's body, but because she didn't know what the poison was, it took so much time to detoxify.Now that he got the poison, he must find a way to cure Mu Zhizhao first!

She studied for a long time, but still couldn't figure out what the poison was. After thinking hard for a long time, she had to ask Peiying to put it away.

This night, Mu Yunge couldn't sleep no matter what, he squinted for a while at dawn, then got up and asked Peixin to prepare the presents, and then asked Peiying to wrap up the sawdust from last night, and the three of them went to visit Dr. Mei.

Although Imperial Physician Mei had already retired from the imperial hospital and fled to Jinling, there was an endless stream of people coming to visit him under the pretext of paying New Year's greetings during the New Year.When Mu Yunge arrived, there was a long queue of people in the front yard of Mei's house, and they all came to visit from all directions.

Mu Yunge didn't want to have contact with these people, so he turned to enter through the back door.

Everyone in the Mei family knew that she was Imperial Physician Mei's closed disciple, so they led her to see Imperial Physician Mei directly.

Imperial physician Mei was doing morning exercises in the pine forest in the backyard. As soon as Mu Yunge arrived in the pine forest, he heard imperial physician Mei scolding angrily.
