Mu Qingyan looked at Hua Jiao and said, "Are you Hua Jiao?"
Hua Jiao nodded and suddenly knelt down, "This slave is willing to surrender."
After all, she was considered an accomplice, and she knew all the things Aunt Jiang did back then.
"That's very good. Tell me everything you know in a moment, and I may be able to let you live." She will not kill them all, but as long as there is still a trace of kindness, she can consider it.
"Thank you, miss! I will give you your full cooperation!" Hua Jiao kowtowed heavily.
When Aunt Jiang saw her actions, her blood suddenly surged, "Damn bitch, you actually betrayed me!"
If the wood spirit hadn't been restraining her, she would have rushed forward and kicked the flower stalks hard, eating everything inside and out.
"That's enough! If you have anything to say, let's talk slowly when we see Grandpa." Mu Qingyan said coldly, then turned and left.
Mu Qi also dragged the wooden branch behind him. Aunt Jiang struggled hard and wanted to give them a slap immediately, "Let me go! I am the madam! Who gave you the courage to treat me like this! I am the madam!"
But no matter how she screamed, Mu Ling and Poria turned a deaf ear, and no one who dared to harm the young lady could escape.
——
At the same time, Mu Qi also went to the old prince's yard and told Mu Sheng everything.
When the old prince found out, he was furious and even protested, "She is so brave!"
Even his precious granddaughter dares to kill her!
Mu Xuan continued: "Yan'er has already taken people to the hall."
"Let's go! I want to see how arrogant she is." The old prince stood up and was about to leave. Suddenly he remembered when he turned to look at the maid serving beside him and ordered in a cold voice: "Let the eldest lady go to the front hall, and by the way...
Princess, please come here."
"yes."
Mu Xuan looked indifferent, and the grandfather and grandson set off immediately.
The old prince was blowing his beard and staring in anger all the way. It was hard to guard against house thieves day and night, but this woman actually dared to do something under his nose.
The front hall of Princess Shangguanrou's residence was closer. After receiving the news, she hurried over and happened to see the newly arrived old prince and her son.
She quickly walked over to support the old prince and asked anxiously: "Father, what happened?"
The old prince looked grave, "Someone bribed the killer to kill Yan'er."
"What?! Is there anything wrong with Yan'er?" Shangguan Rou was surprised. After the prince left, she still had to take care of the entire palace, especially during the Dragon Boat Festival.
The old prince said angrily: "It's okay, how did you become a mother? Only now do you know about such a big thing?"
After being scolded by him, Shangguan Rou looked guilty. Mu Xuan on the side saw this and quickly came to the rescue, "Mom also has a lot of things to do. Yan'er didn't tell her when she came back, so grandpa shouldn't be angry again."
"Humph." The old prince snorted coldly and turned his head away.
A few people sat and waited for a while before they saw Mu Qingyan and his party.
Seeing the old prince, Mu Qingyan smiled sweetly and said, "Grandpa, mother."
"Ouch, come here and let grandpa see if you're injured?" The old prince's expression suddenly became very kind, and he pulled Mu Qingyan over to him. As soon as he checked, he saw her damaged clothes, and his heart suddenly stopped.
Shangguan Rou was very nervous and wanted to check her whole body. Mu Qingyan smiled gently at her and comforted her, "Don't worry, mother, I'm fine!"
The old prince looked coldly at the guilty Aunt Jiang and scolded her sternly: "Ms. Jiang, I think you are impatient."
Aunt Jiang didn't expect that Lao Wang would directly question her without asking her the whole story. She suddenly felt relieved when she thought that she was not welcome by him in the first place.
She quibbled: "I don't know what you are talking about. Miss Mu suddenly tied me up, and Mu Qi even injured my bodyguard without authorization."
Even at this time, she was still defending herself. Mu Qingyan's eyes narrowed and she glanced at Mu Qi.
Mu Qi nodded, dropped the stick and recounted what he heard.
Suddenly, the expressions of Aunt Jiang and Mu Zhi changed, and Aunt Jiang was even more shocked. She never expected that Mu Qi was listening outside at that time!!
Then she looked at Mu Qingyan, her eyes full of hatred, Mu Qingyan moved so fast.
"grandfather……"
Mu Yun's voice sounded, and everyone looked over.
Looking at the situation inside and her mother, Mu Yun hesitated for a moment before walking in. She was resting in the room when she heard a servant coming to tell her to come here, and she saw this scene.
.
"Yun'er! Yun'er, please save my mother." When Aunt Jiang saw her, she held her hand tightly as if she was grasping a life-saving straw.
Mu Yun's voice was a little dry, "Mother..." She raised her head and looked at the old prince at a loss, and finally her eyes fell on Mu Qingyan.
The old prince would not care about her and asked directly: "Yun'er, tell grandpa honestly, does this matter have anything to do with you?"
"This matter has nothing to do with her!" Before Mu Yun could speak, Aunt Jiang spoke first.
Mu Yun became even more confused and a little confused. Looking at the situation in front of her, the only thing she could be sure of was that her mother had gotten into big trouble this time.
Thinking of this, she knelt down directly and said, "Grandpa, please let my mother live!"
The old prince narrowed his eyes dangerously, "Do you know what she did?"
Mu Yun shook her head, but her attitude remained firm, "Yun'er doesn't know, but she is Yun'er's mother after all. Please let her go."
"Presumptuous!" The old prince slammed the table angrily, and Mu Yun was startled.
"If you let her go, who will let Yan'er go? Yan'er almost died at the hands of this vicious woman! You actually begged for mercy on her behalf."
Sure enough, it was related to Mu Qingyan, and Mu Yun suddenly felt cold.
The old prince looked at her angrily, "Get up, since it has nothing to do with you, just listen carefully."
He has always made a distinction between public and private matters.
Mu Qingyan pursed her lips, I am afraid that Mu Yun will not give up easily, but this time, she will never show mercy.
Mu Yun was still hesitating, but the old prince's eyes were focused and he said with great momentum, "Get up."
These two short words were so powerful that Mu Yun had no choice but to stand up and walk to the side to watch.
The old prince looked at Mu Qi and motioned for him to continue.
Mu Qi added: "My subordinates have already interrogated the killer, and he personally admitted that the person he contacted was a man and that he had a pattern tattooed on his hand."
After saying that, he pulled his right hand regardless of his pale face and saw a pattern.
Being pulled by him like this, Mu Zhi's face, which was already in pain, instantly turned paler.
The old prince's face became a little colder.
Mu Qi glanced at Mu Zhi, "What's more, just now, he actually attacked the young lady, and his subordinates had no choice but to destroy his arms."
"It's good to cripple him." The old prince nodded in agreement. If it had been him when he was younger, he might have been executed on the spot.
Shangguan Rou didn't expect that she had missed such a big thing, so she looked at Aunt Jiang in disbelief.
