Mu Yun gritted her teeth, closed her eyes and blurted out. She was still a little embarrassed when she said this. After all, she really didn't like Mu Qingyan before.
But if it weren't for her this time, Jiuqi might still be alive.
Although she is very proud, the reality is also cruel, and she will definitely not be able to do it this time if she is the only one.
Seeing Mu Yun's dejected look, Mu Qingyan suddenly let out a breath and tilted her head slightly, "I will not forgive you."
She apologized voluntarily, but she didn't intend to forgive her. She couldn't forgive someone who wanted her life many times.
Especially the Jiang family, who made her lose her virginity and hired killers to hunt her down. Although Mu Yun did not directly intervene, she was considered an accomplice. She could not forgive her.
I helped her because she was of Mu family blood after all.
Mu Yun raised her head and looked at the girl's cold face. She laughed at herself, "I know, but I still have to thank you. If it were me, I would never be like you."
Maybe she will add insult to injury, look on coldly, or even chuckle.
Mu Qingyan pursed her lips and raised her eyes to look directly at her, "From now on, the water in the well will not interfere with the water in the river. From now on, you take your Yangguan Road and I will cross my single-plank bridge."
"Okay..." Mu Yun's voice was a little hoarse.
After returning to the palace, everyone was called by the old prince for questioning.
"Grandpa." Mu Qingyan called with a smile.
Mu Yun lifted up her skirt and knelt down, "Grandpa."
The old prince looked at her and his tone softened a lot, "How is it?"
"Jiu Qi was executed by Ling Chi. King Qi will fine him three years of salary and thirty years of punishment." Mu Qingyan spoke.
"Hmph." The old prince's eyes darkened, "Thirty is already an advantage for him."
But the guard deserved his death.
Mu Nanping sighed softly, "After all, he is the prince of the Holy Lord. The Holy Lord will not harm his son. If the Imperial Master and the Crown Prince hadn't come forward, I'm afraid that King Qi would be safe."
At most, he would be grounded, let alone punished.
The old prince was surprised, "You said the Imperial Master came forward?"
Mu Nanping nodded, "The Imperial Master has come out of seclusion and said a few words to help Yan'er."
Mu Qingyan sat helplessly on the sidelines. She did not expect that the Imperial Master would actually speak for them.
"Grandpa, if King Qi is suddenly blamed, they will definitely talk about it. Then I am afraid that the matter of the second sister will not be hidden." Mu Xuan suddenly said, once this matter is known to the world, the Prime Minister's Palace will definitely cause a stir.
Attention of many people.
The old prince sneered, "The Holy Emperor is not that stupid yet. The person is his, and the son is also his. Even if the Prime Minister's Mansion is discussed, more people will accuse Baili Qi. He will not disregard his own face."
He knew very well who the emperor was.
He looked at Mu Yun and said, "Go back and take good care of yourself."
Mu Yun stiffened slightly, but couldn't help but her eyes turned red. In the end, she could only kowtow heavily, "Thank you, grandpa."
Then he left with heavy steps.
Seeing his back, the old prince looked like he hated iron and said, "I hope she can change her ways after this incident."
Mu Nanping could only sigh at this.
——
After returning to Liuyan Pavilion, Mu Qingyan kept thinking about Di Beige.
Can the National Preceptor solve her problem?
He took action in this life, but why did he sit on the sidelines in the previous life?
Regarding Di Beige, Mu Qingyan's mood was very complicated.
"Miss, I think you should take a good rest." Fenxiang entered the room and saw Mu Qingyan frowning, obviously having something on her mind.
But during this period of time, the young lady was very tired because of the affairs of the second young lady and the others.
Mu Qingyan looked up at her with a smile, "Okay, let's rest."
If she refuses, I'm afraid Fenxiang will break her tongue.
Fenxiang then helped her lie down with a smile on her face.
I thought the matter would end like this, but unexpectedly, a shocking news came the next day.
Mu Yun hanged herself!
It was the maids in her courtyard who discovered it.
It was said that she couldn't wake up Mu Yun early in the morning, so she thought she might be too tired, so Xiao Tao didn't bother her. The lady didn't ask her to keep vigil last night, so she went back to her room to rest.
But seeing that the sky was getting brighter and breakfast had been prepared, Xiao Tao and several maids had no choice but to stand at the door.
But no matter how hard she knocked, there was no response.
Only then did Xiao Tao realize that something was wrong, and quickly asked the guards to open the door, but was shocked by the scene in front of him.
Mu Yun's feet were off the ground and her body was hanging in the air. Under her feet was a chair that had been kicked away. She was hanging from the beam.
Several maids were so frightened that their faces turned pale, and they all lost their minds. They didn't know what to do.
It was the guard who reacted first and quickly reported it to Mu Nanping.
At that time, Mu Nanping, Mu Qingyan and Shangguanrou Muxuan were having breakfast. When they heard the guard's words, Mu Nanping frowned, "You are so panicked, what happened?"
The guard was panting, with a bit of panic on his face, "Second Miss, she, she hanged herself..."
Mu Nanping stood up suddenly.
"What?!"
He took off and left.
The three people behind him looked at each other with solemn expressions and hurried to follow.
When they arrived at the door, Mu Nanping looked back at his wife and children, and walked into the house with heavy steps.
Mu Yun's body suddenly hung on Bai Ling.
Shangguan Rou covered her mouth and stared at the scene in front of her in shock. Her body stumbled back a few steps involuntarily. Fortunately, Mu Qingyan and Mu Xuan supported her.
Mu Xuan supported Shangguan Rou and looked at his sister worriedly. Although he knew that Yan'er had seen much more than that, he was still worried subconsciously.
Mu Nanping looked at the lifeless Mu Yun, his lips were twitching, and his outstretched hand was trembling.
"Put her down." He ordered in a hoarse voice.
Two guards came immediately, put Mu Yun down and carried her to the bed.
When everyone stepped forward, Mu Qingyan turned her head slightly. She couldn't bear to see that Mu Yun's face was already blue and purple, her tongue was slightly exposed, and her eyes were rolled up. She had completely lost her usual beauty.
"Mother!" Shangguanrou's legs suddenly went weak and she almost lost her balance. Mu Qingyan and Mu Xuan exclaimed at the same time.
When Mu Nanping turned around and saw his wife, his expression changed and he looked at his two children, "Xuan'er Yan'er, take her back."
The two nodded and helped Shangguan Rou back to the main courtyard.
Shangguan Rou was a little distracted while leaning on the soft couch. Seeing this, Mu Xuan comforted her: "Mother, you must relax and don't let this matter affect your health."
Mu Qingyan also echoed: "Brother is right, mother, don't think too much about it."
Shangguan Rou raised her head and looked at them in disbelief, obviously she hadn't recovered yet, "She was fine yesterday."
Why did you hang yourself today?!
Mu Qingyan pursed her lips and said nothing. Her father had always protected her mother very well, so her mother had never seen such a scene. Now she suddenly saw Mu Yun's tragic death, and she definitely couldn't accept it in her heart.
