The general's wife is pretending to be weak again

Chapter 269
The banquet in the flower hall soon ended.

Mu Qingyu took Mo Zhu back, and the night outside was just right, so she deliberately took a detour and wanted to take a longer walk outside.

"Miss, do you want your servant to go back and get a cloak?" Mo Zhu asked.

This sentence was very familiar, and Mu Qingyu couldn't help thinking that Sang Ye had said this sentence to her before the accident happened.

Mingming Sangye woke up, but she still lay there like a living dead.

Mu Qingyu withdrew her drifting thoughts, tightened her clothes, and said, "Don't go, I'm not cold. Let's go back now."

The master and servant were about to go back when they suddenly heard a sound not far away.

Over there, hidden by trees and grass, there is a path.

Mu Qingyu knew about it when she was young, and often walked that path, so she was very familiar with it.

The sound was not like a kitten or a puppy, but more like the sound of someone walking.

The master and servant didn't take it seriously and were about to leave.

As soon as he turned around, he bumped into Guo Nian'er who was tiptoeing.Guo Nian'er acted like a thief, and Mu Qingyu couldn't help but want to go up and talk to her.

Before Mu Qingyu could speak, Guo Nian'er stretched out his hand and quickly blocked Mu Qingyu's mouth.

By the way, he used his other hand to cover Mo Zhu who was about to speak.

"I'll take my hands away, you two don't talk." Guo Nian'er whispered.

Mu Qingyu and Mo Zhu nodded, and Guo Nian'er withdrew his hand.

Mu Qingyu asked softly, "What are you doing here?"

Guo Nian'er didn't answer, but looked serious first, and glanced into the distance.

On the other side of the path, there were some rustling movements.

Guo Nian'er wanted to pass Mu Qingyu and Mo Zhu on the spot and go to the path.

Guo Nian'er is so mysterious, she has always been careless.

Mu Qingyu was worried that she would cause some trouble, so he quickly grabbed her wrist.

Guo Nian'er was suddenly caught by someone, so she shook her arm vigorously but said softly, "Second Sister, come with me."

Mu Qingyu and Mo Zhu followed together.

Guo Nian'er pouted towards Mo Zhu, meaning not to let Mo Zhu go with him.

Mu Qingyu turned his head and signaled Mo Zhu not to follow with his eyes.

Mo Zhu had no choice but to stand where he was and watch the two leave.

Mu Qingyu followed behind Guo Nian'er.

The two of them were obviously the masters of Duke Ding's mansion. Under the moonlight at this moment, the two of them, like thieves, walked on the path that few people passed by.

This path was discovered by Mu Qingyu when he was a child playing around, so I don't know how Guo Nian'er knew about it.

Mu Qingyu stared at Guo Nianer's back in doubt, not daring to stop for a moment, for fear of losing Guo Nianer.

The two walked quickly, and when they were about to reach the side gate of Duke Dingguo's mansion, Guo Nian'er slowed down.

Unable to stop, Mu Qingyu walked up to Guo Nian'er.

She was just about to ask why she didn't leave when she noticed the familiar figure not far in front of them.

The moon white cloak is very conspicuous in the dark night, it's hard not to notice it.

Just looking at the back, Mu Qingyu already recognized who the person in front was.

Mu Jiayan was the only one worthy of Guo Nianer's late-night adventure.

She looked to the side, only Mu Jiayan was alone, without any servants, not even Ping An, who had always been inseparable from Mu Jiayan.

Such a behavior, no wonder Guo Nian'er treats it so seriously.

After drinking wine during dinner, Mu Jiayan was unsteady and managed to walk to the side door.

The mother-in-law who was guarding the door did not dare to stop Mu Jiayan when she saw Mu Jiayan.

Without Mu Jiayan saying a word, the door was already opened.

Looking at the woman's skillful movements, she seems to have been used to it for a long time.

Isn't it the first time for Mu Jiayan to do such a sneaky thing?
Mu Qingyu restrained his doubts, followed Guo Nian'er and continued to walk forward slowly.

The woman sent Mu Jiayan out, and when she turned around, she saw two people standing behind her, and her heart almost jumped out of fright.

Fortunately, seeing the faces of the two men clearly, he patted his chest in shock, "Old slave... this old slave greets the second young lady and cousin."

"You are not allowed to tell anyone about our coming tonight. Otherwise, I will tell my grandmother and send you out." Guo Nian'er threatened with a downcast face.

No one in Dingguo's manor knew that this Miss Biao was the jewel in Mrs. Mu's palm.

Eight out of ten of her words, Madam Mu would listen to them.

What's more, it's such a trivial matter to dismiss the servants?
The old lady hurriedly assured her: "Miss Biao, don't worry, this old slave won't say anything."

Guo Nian'er pulled Mu Qingyu and walked out of Duke Dingguo's mansion.

Fortunately, Mu Jiayan walked slowly, and the two easily caught up with him.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Mu Jiayan stopped.

Mu Qingyu and Guo Nian'er also stopped, and they hid at the corner, staring at Mu Jiayan secretly.

I saw that Mu Jiayan was tired from walking and was resting against a tree.And look at him, there is no intention to continue walking.

Mu Qingyu took this opportunity to secretly look at the surrounding scenery.

Suddenly, Guo Nian'er became nervous and tugged at Mu Qingyu's sleeve, reminding her to look over there.

On the road opposite Mu Jiayan, a dark figure slowly appeared.

That person came stepping on the moonlight, with a flying yellow skirt, it was obviously a woman.

The woman approached slowly, and her face became clearer and clearer.

Mu Qingyu's eyes widened, as if she couldn't believe what her eyes saw.

"Why is it her?" Mu Qingyu whispered.

Guo Nian'er's hand was pawing at the wall, the fingertips were white and trembling slightly.

Mu Qingyu was a little away from her, so he could feel her anger.

The woman walked up to Mu Jiayan, and the two started talking.

From far away, Mu Qingyu could only see the opening and closing of the lips of the two people, and couldn't hear what they said at all. All he knew was that the two had a very happy conversation.

Mu Qingyu gave up and planned to take Guo Nian'er back first, so as not to be discovered.

She turned her head, just in time to see Guo Nianer's red eyes.

Thinking of Guo Nian'er's sincerity towards Mu Jiayan, seeing such a scene must make him uncomfortable.

Mu Qingyu patted Guo Nianer's back lightly to show comfort.

After a while, she persuaded in a low voice: "Let's go back quickly, grandma will definitely become suspicious if she doesn't see you."

Guo Nian'er responded dully, and the two turned around and walked back.

The woman guarding the gate also left the gate for the two, and the two entered the mansion smoothly all the way, and bid farewell in the garden.

Mu Qingyu went to the second room, but Mo Zhu was still waiting for her at the door of the second room.

"Miss, where have you been?" Mo Zhu greeted her.

"I didn't go anywhere, I'm tired, let's go in quickly." Mu Qingyu said perfunctorily.

Mo Zhu stopped asking and followed Mu Qingyu back.

The next day, news came from the palace that the maid beside the empress
Sang Ye woke up and told the truth.

It turned out that she accidentally fell into the well, it had nothing to do with Mu Qingyu, everything was a misunderstanding.

Since then, Mu Qingyu's innocence has finally become clear.
