Mu Tingyu returned to Hejing before New Year's Eve. During this period, he stayed in the Mu Mansion without going out.
Mrs. Hu brought people to look for her for a few days, but the Mu family simply turned her away.
Mrs. Hu was so angry that she went back to ask the old lady to make the decision, hoping to find justice for Qian Yuandeng.
Mrs. Qian was angry at first, but later she became calm and calm.
As for Qian Xutian, after Mu Tingyu and Lu Mingfeng returned to Hejing, he became extremely busy and didn't even come back on New Year's Eve.
Mrs. Hu couldn't understand why no one was punished when such a good living person was lost, and why people everywhere even looked down upon her.
When Qian Yuandeng's body was brought back to Hejing, it had already begun to stink.
The subordinates were afraid that the coffin would be publicized, so they put him in a wooden box at first. After entering Li Qian territory, they bought a coffin.
In a small county town coffin shop, no matter how expensive the coffins are, in Hu's eyes they are just cheap goods.
The moment she opened the coffin and saw her precious son whose skin color had changed drastically, Mrs. Hu screamed and fainted.
However, the tragedy has just begun.
The emperor issued an imperial edict, praising Qian Yuandeng on the surface, and then delivering a eulogy. In fact, he said that the Chinese New Year was coming soon, and it was unlucky to leave the body alive, so he should be buried quickly.
The newly built mourning hall at home had not even been kept for seven days, so Qian Yuandeng was taken away and buried hastily. On the day when the coffin was laid in the earth, Mr. Hu cried until he fainted several times.
And it has been seven days since Mu Tingyu came back. There has been no news from the emperor, and no one from the others has given an explanation.
Others decorated the New Year with lanterns and colorful decorations and had a good time, but she shed tears and was ridiculed and ridiculed.
Her son seemed to have died so silently, and no one cared about her. Even if she mentioned it a few times, people would get annoyed and urge her to leave quickly...
Now, all Hu can do is sit under the steps in front of the Mufu Mansion every day, staring blankly at the ground in front of her, muttering "pay for life" and "pay for life" all the time.
The Mufu is located on the most prosperous Ziwei Road in Hejing. The long street is wide and wide, and there are dense flow of people coming and going, and most of them are dignitaries.
There are many shops along the road. In order to make the market prosperous, the government also set aside a large area of the market, which was crowded with vendors who came with push carts.
People who pass by here every day can see Mrs. Hu surrounded by pearls and emerald green clothes, and she is thinking quietly there.
The officials who knew what was going on shook their heads.
Ordinary people who didn't know what was going on didn't dare to ask more questions, but after leaving, rumors could spread in ten thousand versions.
On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Mr. Hu came earlier, and he did not sit in a sedan chair, but walked on foot.
The grandmothers and aunts at home immediately chased her out when they found out. When they arrived, they saw that Mr. Hu had not even combed her hair neatly. She was holding in her arms a soft pillow that Qian Yuandeng loved most when she was alive, and she was patting her like a baby. .
When Mu Tingyu heard the news, he was so shocked that he kicked the quilt off the bed while he was still sleeping.
"Master, can you go out and take a look?" the servant asked.
"She's crazy!" Mu Tingyu shouted loudly, "Can't you see, what's your intention? You want me to go out and take a look, and then what, you say, what next!"
The servant quickly lowered his head and did not dare to answer.
"It's bad luck, damn it!" Mu Tingyu cursed, "What a damn bad luck!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of hurried footsteps coming outside.
Mu Tingyu quickly looked up and saw that it was the housekeeper of the house.
"Young Master," the butler said in a low voice as he stepped forward, "Lu Zhengjiang is here. He came through the back door."
Mu Tingyu was stunned. At this moment, he didn't even realize who General Lu Zheng was.
"Lu Mingfeng?" Mu Tingyu said after a while.
"right."
"Damn you!" Mu Tingyu immediately looked at the servant beside him and yelled angrily, "Didn't you hear that Lu Mingfeng is here? Why are you standing there waiting for me to dress and wash up!!"
"Yes, yes!" the servants responded repeatedly, and other servants also came over.
Mu Tingyu had been back in Hejing for so long, including New Year's Eve, that there was not even a single letter from Lu Mingfeng or the palace.
Mu Tingyu has been feeling uneasy, mainly because he doesn't know whether this is a mess...
But even if he messed up, it was not his fault.
After washing up, Mu Tingyu walked towards the main hall with this handsome and delicate face.
Lu Mingfeng did not come alone, Huo Zhengsheng, the Tianrong Guardsman, was also there.
Before Mu Tingyu entered, the two of them were chatting, and judging by their mood, they seemed to be in a good mood.
Seeing Mu Tingyu come in, Lu Mingfeng looked at him and smiled slightly: "Prince Mu, long time no see. How are you?"
Mu Tingyu didn't look good. He pointed tiredly towards the main door outside: "The general is joking. You said I was fine."
"Hahaha..." Lu Mingfeng laughed brightly.
Mu Tingyu couldn't laugh at all. After he took his seat, he raised his hands in a serious manner: "General, I hope you can tell me, did I screw up this time, or did I not screw up?"
"Ah Li killed him, what can you do?" Lu Mingfeng said.
Mu Tingyu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's it, I'm finally relieved."
"Eh~" Lu Mingfeng said, "You can't think that this matter will just go away, right?"
"General, what do you mean?" Mu Tingyu looked at him hurriedly, "Could it be the Emperor..."
"You think about it yourself," Lu Mingfeng said with a smile, "You proposed this plan to me on your own initiative. You said you could instigate Qian Yuandeng to anger Li Xiao, let Li Xiao kill him with his own hands, and then take it away.
Li Xiao's soldiers and horses. But in the more than half a year since you have been out, Li Xiao has brought out nearly ten thousand people and thousands of people who stayed in Guihe. I see that you can't capture even a single soldier. But as for the imperial court, in order to cooperate with your seduction
Let Li Xiao come out and the court will provide food and grass, which is real gold and silver."
"But General Lu, if it weren't for Ah Li, the ending would definitely not be like this!"
"Are you sure?" Lu Mingfeng raised his eyebrows, "Why did I hear Qian Yuandeng and his subordinates say that they accidentally met Ah Li after running out, which led to Qian Yuandeng being killed. If it weren't for Ah Li, Qian Yuandeng would now point to
Maybe you have returned to Hejing? I think you should actually thank Ah Li for stopping you, otherwise..."
"Otherwise, if I catch up with Qian Yuandeng, kill him with my own hands, and then blame Li Xiao, the outcome will be the same!" Mu Tingyu's voice suddenly turned cold, "General Lu, I was indeed messed up by Ah Li!"
"You just put the blame on Li Xiao's men? Can't Li Xiao's subordinates see it?" Lu Mingfeng frowned, "Prince Mu, why didn't the emperor directly issue an order to seize Li Xiao's military power, but was willing to adopt your plan? Isn't that right?
In order to make Li Xiao's soldiers and horses unwilling to do so, do they still have to be "sincerely convinced"? If you really catch up with Qian Yuandeng and kill him, will the soldiers and horses of Li Xiao's men be able to convince you with your move to frame the blame?
You Mu Tingyu looks smart, why are you like Qian Yuandeng, a loser?"
