He naturally heard what Master Mu said to the Duke. He was also surprised by how much Master Mu protected the eldest lady.
I thought it was just a rumor from outside.
Young Master Mu and the eldest lady? They seem to be doing well. They are quite a match.
Just as he was thinking about it, he was called in by Zhang Fu. Before the Duke could speak, he said, "What do you think of Master Mu as your son-in-law?"
Zhang Fu was stunned for a moment, running through the image of Mu Yan in his mind.
He originally liked this kid and wanted to lure him into his own fertile field. But he didn't expect that he was interested in his daughter.
He and Nannan?
It's not impossible. There are not many people in Beijing who can match his daughter. This Mu Yan is very good.
only……
"It's too early to say this now. My daughter has just returned home. In the past few years since she left me, my father and daughter have not been close to each other. Let him wait for a few more years."
How many years to wait? Lord Duke, how dare you say that.
"By the way, did you hear what he said?"
Zhang Jin came back to his senses, looked serious, and nodded: "Master Mu and I have the same thoughts."
Zhang Fu frowned: "Do you also think someone did something to Nian'er right away?"
"Yes. When the fifth young master fell from the horse, the Duke of Guo was holding the young master and calling the doctor, so I ordered Zhang Liang to go and check."
"How did the check go?"
"There's no problem at the racecourse, I'm afraid it's from our house." Zhang Jin didn't hide anything from him.
Zhang Fu's expression was serious: "You and Zhang Liang go and investigate in person. No matter who it is, get it for me!"
In his house, if you dare to engage in such shameful tactics, is it because he has a too good temper?
"Yes." Zhang Jin responded and left.
On Huo Nian's side, when he was the only one left in the room, Huo Nian put away the painful expression on his face. Huo Xi couldn't help but glance at him.
"Sister, it doesn't hurt very much, don't worry."
Huo Xi didn't know whether he was comforting her or what, so she stepped forward to check again.
Nian'er had just returned home and had just been awarded the title of Crown Prince. If his leg was broken, a physically handicapped person might not be able to inherit the title.
Huo Xi was so filled with hatred that she called Zhufeng over and asked him again.
Zhufeng explained the matter again, then said: "Girl, don't worry, the young master's leg was not hit hard. I checked, the bones are not broken, and there are no broken bones inside. But because the injury was at the critical joint, only
I’m afraid I won’t be able to get out of bed in the past few days.”
Huo Nian also nodded: "Sister, I will take care of you for a few days and you will be fine."
"Then you were complaining about pain just now."
Huo Nian lowered his head and glanced at Zhufeng.
"Girl, I asked the young master to do this."
Huo Xi looked at him.
Mu Yan also looked at him, and after figuring out the joints, he nodded towards him.
Zhufeng breathed a sigh of relief.
Explained to Huo Xi: "I think about the horse that Master Mu gave me. It is very docile and has to be taken care of by the master himself. It has long recognized the master as his master. When the master rides it, it doesn't even need to be used. It seems to be able to listen to the horse."
I understand what the young master said. Besides, everything went well all the way, but something happened when we arrived at the racecourse in the suburbs, and my subordinates suspected that someone had tampered with it."
"Haven't you checked it?"
Mu Yan then said to Huo Xi: "If you feed the horse some drugs that make the horse go crazy, it won't happen for a while, and they can't stare at the stable for twelve hours."
Zhufeng felt a little guilty: "My subordinates were negligent."
"Sister, it's not Zhufeng's fault, it's because others were too bad and couldn't guard against it. When I fell off my horse, Zhufeng came as fast as he could to catch me. I only knocked a little."
"What if Zhufeng didn't catch you?" Not only his legs were broken, but his neck was probably broken and he died.
The horse that Mu Yan sent was not a foal. It was a mare that had just grown up. It was tall and strong. Now Huo Nian couldn't even get up in the stirrups. He had to be picked up by someone else. If it fell, who would be there?
whole?
Zhufeng was also a little scared. If he didn't receive the young master, the consequences would be disastrous.
"What can be found?" Mu Yan asked Zhufeng.
Zhufeng shook his head, "No. There are no wounds on the horse's body. The vet checked its teeth and found no drugs in its mouth that made it go crazy."
"How could it not be found out! How could this be an accident! Girl, it must have been the Wu family who sent someone to do it! Otherwise, how can we explain that the young master's horse did not have an accident, but our young master's horse did?"
Vanilla Shihua and others were extremely angry.
Vanilla also glared at Zhufeng, is this guy good? How did she fall in love with him at that time? He had a paralyzed face, couldn't even find out anything, and even got the young master injured.
Zhufeng turned his body to one side and did not look at her cannibalistic gaze.
Mu Yan shook his head: "As long as something happens, there will be traces to follow." No matter how meticulous the method is, there can be no omissions.
He has handled cases in Jinyiwei and knows how to peel off the cocoons.
He turned around and told Kan Er: "Take the horse back to our house and ask the vet to check it after it has defecated."
"yes."
At the same time, he gave Li Yi a few instructions. Li Yi also nodded and went to do it.
Huo Xi also ordered Tayue and others to go to the stables in the mansion and ask all the grooms, and then ask who else had approached the stables, who had approached along the way, and then ask about the horse farm. Another person was sent to keep an eye on them.
There are two courtyards, Wu's and Zhang Jie's.
Tayue nodded and went to do it.
Just as he was giving instructions, the second and third bedrooms heard that Huo Nian had fallen and all came to see him. Mu Yan glanced at Huo Xi and went out through the back door.
Huo Nian fell off his horse, and not only the second and third bedrooms came to see him, but also the dowager in person.
Seeing that Huo Nian's knee was injured, with a thick layer of gauze wrapped around it and a lot of blood stains on it, I trembled in my heart.
After saying a few words to Huo Nian, she turned around and saw that Huo Xi ignored her and didn't stay too long. She just asked Haosheng to take care of her and then went back.
After returning home, I sat in a chair and stared blankly.
Okay, how could he fall off his horse? Moreover, Huo Nian and Zhang Jie were both there. Huo Nian, who only knew equestrian skills, fell off his horse, but Zhang Jie, who had never ridden a horse, nothing happened.
I heard that there are broken bones inside, but I don't know if it can be taken out, and whether I can still walk well after taking it out.
If not, the position of prince can only belong to Zhang Jie.
Could it be that Wu really did it?
But she was grounded.
The madam quickly turned the prayer beads in her hand and called her confidant Nanny Tong: "Go and check for yourself and see who Wu has met these days, who has been out in her courtyard, and who she has been in contact with.
.”
As soon as Nanny Tong nodded, the Madam stopped her again, "Everyone who serves Zhang Jie should also be interrogated."
"yes."
After Nanny Tong went out, the beads in Mrs. Tai's hand were spinning even faster, her heart was fluctuating, she was afraid that the house would be in chaos, and she frowned.
In Huo Nian's house, no one had broken down all day. When they found out that he had fallen, they all came to see him.
It wasn't until nightfall that no one came.
Huo Xi saw that Nian'er and Zhufeng had deceived Zhang Fu and others. After thinking about it, she told Zhufeng to go to the Imperial College to ask for leave tomorrow. She told her husband that his leg was broken and he couldn't walk. He didn't know when.
good.
How to say how serious it is.
They also sent people outside to spread the news that the newly returned prince of the British Duke's family had broken his leg after falling off a horse.
