As soon as Mr. Mu Er took care of the deceased, several tribesmen came to the door and said that they had heard a rumor.
This rumor is that Gu Fenglin was poisoned like a mad dog and refused to recognize his relatives, like an animal.
He also said that Gu Fenglin had drained the blood of all the talented girls in the Mu clan and killed them.
After these tribesmen had gone through the hardships during the Shou King period, they had long been frightened. They were very frightened when they heard such rumors, and they all asked Master Mu Er to explain the situation.
Mr. Mu Er took his time and asked someone to show them the booklet of the recently delivered pills: "A batch was just delivered yesterday. If the pills are gone, where will the pills come from?"
Then someone took them to the Priest's Palace: "There is no proof for what you say. Go and see if the Priest is sick."
These tribesmen did not dare to go: "What if the adults find out and get angry?"
Mr. Mu Er smiled and said, "How can you feel at ease if you haven't gone to see it? Don't worry, let's go see it quietly without disturbing the adults. He won't know."
So a group of tribesmen were arranged to enter the Priest's Palace, and through the window they saw Gu Fenglin sitting in his study, reading and writing letters, giving orders from time to time, and asking people to bring his staff inside for detailed discussions.
In such a situation, it would not look like someone is sick or delirious.
The Mu clan members left in disbelief, and Master Mu calmly scolded them: "Do you know what Mrs. Anguo and I did to protect our clan when civil strife was about to break out?"
The Mu clan members shook their heads.
However, Muhou Mansion and Mu Yunhan made a lot of preparations during the turmoil, and they did not miss out on food when they were short of food. There were no casualties among the Mu clan. This is a fact.
Therefore, they were convinced and grateful to Mu Yunhan and Muhou Mansion.
"Needless to say the details, and the difficulties involved, but I really worried about these girls. To protect them is to protect the Gu and Mu clans. Madam managed to send them to the Lingxiao Temple.
If you are worried and want to see them, I will ask the madam to get the token and have someone take you to the temple to have a look. I will know better so don’t panic."
As Master Mu Er spoke, he asked people to prepare carriages and horses to go to the Priest's Palace. He sighed and shook his head: "Nowadays, there are internal and external troubles, and the weather is in turmoil. It doesn't matter if I let you see it. I'm afraid my wife will be sad.
You have to take the slightest rumor from others seriously, but you can't believe us. We are even more afraid that people with ulterior motives will see your actions and make up more gossip that is detrimental to us!
So after you go there, you must be careful not to let anyone know about it, and you must not talk nonsense. You can do it, right?"
When everyone heard it, they all started beating the drum a little.
Now that the Lin family and Meng Jia are in power, the Gu family and the Mu family are in a difficult situation, and they have some idea in their minds that if they cause big trouble to the clan due to their own carelessness, they don't want to see it.
The third grandma was supported by her son and came in tremblingly from the outside. She sneered and said, "Even if something really happened, why are you trying so hard to prove this?
Can people come back alive? Or can they happily kill the priest? It’s not just about taking advantage of the bad guys and letting them get their own way! A bunch of idiots!”
Mr. Mu Er hurriedly said: "That's not what you said. Everyone is doing this for the good of the clan. Come on, come on. I'm going to find my wife to get the token. Please sit back for a while and I'll be back soon."
