Chapter 48
"This matter needs to be thoroughly investigated by the king. There is no need to worry, Mr. Mu. There will always be an explanation." Xiao Yi turned back to Mu Kangcheng, not forgetting to glance at Mu Yueyin, and then said: "This king has to Go back to the palace and say goodbye first."

Mu Kangcheng led his family members to salute the Seventh Prince and did not turn back until he disappeared into the night.

"Third Miss, come and let me see if I'm injured, as long as I come back safely, have you been scared for a few days? Have you eaten?"

As soon as she entered the study door, Mrs. Li pulled Mu Yueyin up and down to look, except for her tattered dress, she didn't notice anything unusual about her.

"Thank you, Madam, for your concern. The thief just locked me up and didn't short of food. It's okay." Mu Yueyin replied coldly.

Before Xiao Yi found out the truth, Mu Yueyin didn't want to deal too much with Li Shi, and now only Li Shi's elder brother Li Jinliang was pulled out, and Mu Yueyin's purpose behind it was still uncertain.

Fortunately, Mu Kangcheng said at this time, "Yueyin is tired too, go back and rest quickly."

Li's teeth itch with hatred, this time this little girl ran away, how should their Li family treat Eunuch Cao.You have to know that such a small matter can't be done well, and you don't know if it will affect your brother's future.

"Yes, yes, tomorrow, I will have extra meals in the kitchen, and I will prepare a few more tonic soups, so as to replenish my vitality!" Li Shi smirked almost behind her ears.

Mu Kangcheng nodded with a smile, as if he was very satisfied with the arrangement of his wife.

Mu Yueyin bowed her head in thanks, but said in her heart, if she cherished her life, she wouldn't dare to drink the soup that Li Shi handed her!
"Wuuu... Miss, you are finally back, you scared the slaves to death, Miss, are you alright?"

I'm really sad, I'm afraid Xia He is the only one who is crying for Mu Yueyin in this Mu residence.

Mu Yueyin's heart warmed when she saw her crying till Lihua was waiting at the gate of Qiufengyuan.Is this what it feels like to be waiting to come home?
The whole house had already spread the news that Miss Mu San was sent back to the house by the Seventh Prince, Xia He didn't dare to run around, so she just stayed at the gate of Qiufengyuan and waited, thinking that Miss Mu would definitely come back.

"Hey, don't cry, I'm fine. I'm not hungry or hurt, don't you believe me?"

Mu Yueyin wiped away Xia He's tears, and walked around in front of her.

But I didn't expect Xia He to cry even harder, as if she couldn't stop her tears, she sobbed and said, "Miss Kung Fu disappeared in just a short while, no matter how the current thieves can come to the house to kidnap people, it's really lawless."

Xia He said angrily, and then suddenly remembered something, "Miss, you don't blame the servant for making her own decisions, do you?"

Mu Yueyin was relieved to hear her say that she happened to meet Liu Han and asked her to find out about his whereabouts.

It's not sure whether Liu Han played a role in this, it's just waiting to be asked in front of him.If Liu Han really helped, then Mu Yueyin should thank him very much.

"You're right, how can I blame you. I didn't have an accident this time, so I must be careful next time."

Mu Yueyin didn't know what Li Shi would do next time, so she couldn't take it lightly.

"What does Miss mean by saying that? Could it be that someone I know is trying to harm you? But, how did you get rescued by the Seventh Prince?" Xia He was puzzled.

Speaking of which, Mu Yueyin was also at a loss. Xiao Yi had acted disgusted before, but when he appeared in front of her in the deep forest, she was indeed moved by being found by her relatives.

Maybe Mu Kangcheng entrusted the Seventh Prince to help find her, and he just happened to find her.

Mu Yueyin didn't think otherwise.

Silent all night.

After getting up and washing up the next morning, Li looked at the bronze mirror and realized how ugly his face was.She tossed and turned all night, fearing that something would happen to the Li family.While comforting himself, he couldn't help worrying at the same time.

"Has there been a reply from my natal family?" Mrs. Li asked hastily when she saw Qiuxiang coming in with tea.

Qiuxiang shook her head, the letter was sent to Li's house, but Madam's elder brother didn't get a message back, let alone reply to the letter.

The third lady has been back all night, and the Li family should have received the news.

Li Shi couldn't help sighing, Mu Yueyin will come to the main courtyard for dinner soon, looking at her face, Li Shi will definitely think of how stupid she is, the previous plan was rough, but now it's good, Fang Buddha can always see Mu The sneer on Yueyin's face.

As if to say, you are going to be finished soon.

"Go and call the eldest lady and tell her to come to the main courtyard quickly." Li Shi ordered, and she could only rely on her daughter to calm her heart when she was flustered.

Unlike Li Shi, Mu Yueyin slept soundly and peacefully, and prepared to go to the main courtyard in a good mood.

I'm afraid they didn't know about Li Hongjun's arrest, because before Mu Yueyin entered the courtyard, she heard laughter from inside.

"Third sister, is this a blessing in disguise?" Mu Yiting's sharp voice made people miss it.

"Miss, where is the luck? They were all kidnapped, who knows what happened?" Chunhong said deliberately, just to make people think about fame and festivals.

"But the seventh prince sent her back to the mansion. If she can catch the prince's eyes, maybe our third sister can get a princess for her in the future."

After Mu Yiting finished speaking, she chuckled, who doesn't know the Seventh Prince, who is short-lived and short-tempered, and the daughters of good people all beg Buddha and ancestors not to marry the Seventh Prince.

She said that to laugh at Mu Yueyin, and it really provoked a room full of servant girls to snicker.

"Who is going to be the princess? Is it you, sister?"

Mu Yueyin walked straight into the front hall of the main courtyard, smiled and looked at Mu Yiting who was seated above, and every word they just said fell into Mu Yueyin's ears.

Not to be outdone, Mu Yueyin fought back: "Is it because the second sister married into the prime minister's mansion, which makes the eldest sister feel very uncomfortable?"

Sure enough, Mu Yiting immediately patted the table and stood up, angrily said: "What do you mean? Keep your mouth clean, don't think that you have the support of the Seventh Prince, and forget your identity!"

Mu Yueyin turned her face away and didn't answer at all. The more irritable she was, the more narrow-minded Mu Yiting would appear, and what she said was not enough to be called a lady.

"Okay, what are you shouting about?"

Qiuxiang lifted the curtain of the inner room, and Li Shi, who was looking down, came out, glanced at Mu Yiting, and sighed inwardly.

If you make a big fuss over a trivial matter, how will you be strong when you marry into your husband's house, and how will you be appreciated by your mother-in-law.

Mu Yiting curled her lips, and also blamed herself in her heart for not being able to hold her breath. She was so angry after being said by Mu Yueyin, let alone when Li Shi was in a bad mood, she sat down again and restrained herself.

Mu Yueyin didn't take it seriously, and sat down with a blank expression on her face. It's really a test to endure in this family.

Thinking of the second sister, Mu Yitong, who has endured for many years and waited for the opportunity to stand out, it has to be admired.

The maids who were chatting and laughing with Mu Yiting just now also stopped talking, and quietly set dishes aside.

The meal was finished quickly, and Mu Yueyin ate with gusto and high spirits.On the other hand, Li Shi and Mu Yiting seemed to have no appetite and stopped eating after a few mouthfuls.

After the servant girl cleared away the dishes, Qiu Xiang took the initiative to show Mu Yueyin some tea.

Li-shi winked, Qiuxiang and the maids retreated outside the house to wait, and then Li-shi looked at Mu Yueyin with loving eyes.

"Third Miss was also shocked last night. I wonder where the Seventh Prince found you?"

Mu Yueyin smiled calmly, understood, bowed her head and replied: "Madam, last night the night was getting darker, and it was already dark when the Seventh Prince found me. I also tried to identify where it was, but I couldn't tell. "

Then Mu Yueyin stopped, seeing Li Shi's focused gaze dimmed, and then said: "It's just..."

"But what?" The corner of Li's eyes twitched, and the hand holding the teacup trembled.

Mu Yueyin blinked, her face full of innocence, "I heard from Wang Ye's subordinates that the Zhuangzi belongs to our family."

"How could it be Zhuangzi of the Mu family?" Mu Yiting was very surprised.

"Yeah, why is it such a coincidence?" Mu Yueyin put on a puzzled look, but looked straight at Li Shi.

Li Shi smiled awkwardly, almost choking on the hot tea in his mouth, and quickly took a handkerchief to wipe the corners of his mouth.

"Forget it, just come back. Don't pursue those unwarranted things. Next, our family should take care of the third girl's wedding ceremony."

I think it's because I'm afraid of being found out on my own head?Mu Yueyin cursed in her heart.

This jiji ceremony is also a ceremony that must be held by underage girls, and Mu Yueyin didn't expect much. With her malnourished body, it's too early to talk about marriage.

"Ma'am, it's not good..." Qiu Xiang rushed to Li's side in a hurry and whispered.He didn't care about the two ladies present at all.

"What's the matter?" Li frowned, she hated such reckless behavior the most, but before she could reprimand her, her face immediately became ugly.

The teacup in hand was knocked over on the table, and the tea spilled out. The boiling hot tea almost dripped onto Li Shi's dress, but her eyes were lost in thought, with a dazed expression.

"Mother, what's going on? Mother..." Mu Yiting hurried forward to hold Li Shi's trembling hands, and found that it was cold.

"Miss, how can this be called a slave?" Qiuxiang stood aside, hesitating, as if she had something to say.

"It's okay, let's withdraw today, I'm a little tired." Li Shi struggled to finish speaking in one breath, and looked at Mu Yueyin with eyes that seemed to be overflowing with poison.

Mu Yueyin showed a mysterious smile, could it be that Li Hongjun's incident happened?No matter what, he bent down first and saluted and left the main courtyard.

After Mu Yueyin left, Li Shi looked at Mu Yiting with tears in his eyes, choked up and said, "Your uncle went to prison, your cousin's leg was beaten and disabled..."

Mu Yiting's head buzzed, she staggered in shock and almost fell on the chair beside her.

That day I heard Li Hongjun say that his uncle was going to be promoted soon, Mu Yiting pressed him, but Li Hongjun mysteriously said that there was a noble person to help him, so he didn't explain more.

Why did you send the monstrous news of your imprisonment today?

"This is impossible. My uncle is an upright and honest official. Someone must have harmed him. Let father go and ask if he has wronged a good person. Cousin is usually a little ostentatious, and he is harmed by someone with a heart. He must be arrested." Stop that murderer and punish him severely!"

Mu Yiting was furious, and she also knew that if her uncle collapsed, as the legitimate daughter of the Mu family, she would naturally lose a helping hand.

"Yes! I'll go find the master!" Mrs. Li thought about Mu Yiting's words for a while, and it was not unreasonable. She asked Mu Kangcheng to turn around while there was still a turning point.

As a last resort, Mrs. Li didn't want Mu Kangcheng to know the truth about Mu Yueyin's disappearance, but if Li Jinliang was really imprisoned because of this, he could only confess to Mu Kangcheng first and seek a turnaround.

The idea is always perfect, but the reality is cruel.

When Mrs. Li saw Mu Kangcheng's helpless expression, she knew it was over. The Li family had been boiled in oil, and it was not easy to turn over.

"It's not that I don't ask my colleagues for help, but, alas."

Mu Kangcheng sighed, and he couldn't help feeling anxious too. Something happened to his in-laws, so it's not a disaster.
