Xuanmen Xiaoguo Shi is divination again

Chapter 20 Lies
Outside Chaohua Residence, four or five maidservants stood in a neat row by the door. They had been waiting here for more than a moment. .

"Second Miss, have you packed up yet? Master and His Highness the Seventh Prince are still waiting in Fulanxuan. If you keep dragging on like this, the rest of us will have to rush in and carry you directly to Third Miss." The leader The boy knocked on the door frame angrily, with such force that the old dust hidden in the corner of the bucket arch was knocked away, and the dirty plaster hit the newly replaced bright-colored lanterns, making the two lamps glow. Immediately it became dark for a few minutes.

Mu Shiyan, who was hiding in the house and didn't want to see anyone, panicked when she heard this, and hurriedly grabbed Yunshi beside her.

The delicate makeup on her face was mottled and peeled off by the cold sweat. Under the dim light in the room, she looked like a female ghost who had just crawled out of the deep mountains and old forests: "Yun Shi, what should I do? Yun Shu hasn't come back yet, my mother is not here, If uncle is determined to send me away... what should we do?"

"Miss, don't panic, Madam will definitely not be able to come back now, and we can't hide from what happened to Fu Lanxuan." Yun Shi was extremely calm, and pulled Mu Shiyan to sit in front of the dowry , set up the bronze mirror on the table, and forced her to look at the mirror, "But if you can't avoid it, it doesn't mean that there is no way out."

"You mean..." Mu Shiyan hesitated, her hair reflected in the mirror was disheveled and embarrassed, which made her frown.

"Recognize it directly, but not completely. Miss, you accidentally pushed the third lady into the water on the koi pond. That's not your intention..."

"You just saw something dropped on her cloak and wanted to dust it off for her, but you didn't sleep well last night, and you were in a trance for a while and couldn't control your strength." Rhyme said calmly, pointing at the haggard figure in the bronze mirror "You were also frightened after Miss San fell into the water, and this is the best proof."

"You want me to go to Fulanxuan like this? Wouldn't it be a joke for His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince?" Mu Shiyan hesitated. She has always cherished the name of a beauty more than her life, and let her appear in such an ugly state. In front of everyone, it is tantamount to killing half of her life!

"Miss, the most important thing right now is to preserve your reputation." Yun Shi lowered her voice and leaned over to put her face on her temples, "If the reputation of murdering your cousin spreads, your life will be ruined." But it's really ruined. No son of a prince or noble family in this world would be willing to marry a ruthless woman as his wife."

"Think about your marriage and then think about your future. Is the momentary attitude or reputation important."

"Your image in His Royal Highness's heart is already rotten. A beautiful face can't be saved." Yun Shi got up, and took advantage of the opportunity to pull out the two exquisite pearls on Mu Shiyan's head, making her look even more miserable Three points, "It's better to just go like this, at least it looks sincere - the cousin is not yet awake, and the cousin is dressed up and ostentatious."

"Miss, do you think it is appropriate?"

"But... that girl Lingqin was there at the time, and His Royal Highness seems to have seen me stretching out my hand to push people, this..." Mu Shiyan hesitated, she was already shaken by Yunshi's words at this point, but she Still have some embarrassment.

"It's just a girl who speaks nonsense, it can't be taken seriously." Yunshi smiled, let go of the two steps and fell into the wooden box, and there was a sound of gold objects colliding in the box, "As for Your Highness, the koi pond is nine feet away from the entrance of the backyard, even if he thinks about it, he can't really see it."

Fulanxuan, Mu Wenjing was flipping through a military book, his face covered with impatience, it has been half an hour since he sent his servants to Chaohuaju to invite someone, and Lingqin also went out for a little while , even Dr. Xu couldn't sit still and went to the main house to see that Ah had resigned. Why hasn't his niece come yet?
Did she lose an arm or a leg, or was she suddenly seriously ill and paralyzed and unable to take care of herself?
"Oh, I think the second cousin knows she's wronged, so she's guilty and dare not come here!" Mu Xiuning, who is usually impatient, sneered while playing with his sword. Just as Mu Wenjing wanted to remind him not to dance swords indoors, Lingqin Hastily ran back from outside the courtyard: "Master and Young Master, Your Highness Seventh, Miss Tang Er has arrived."

Finally came, wait a little longer, his head will be crushed by the crown.

Mu Wenjing slandered, threw the military book on the table and straightened his body.Lingqin bowed slightly and retreated behind Mu Xiuning, staring at the door without moving.

With Yun Shi's support, Mu Shiyan walked into the room at a steady pace, half of her black hair, which was originally neatly tied, was now disheveled, and the makeup on her face was also faded.

She stood still, and bowed respectfully and carefully to Mu Wenjing who was seated on the main seat, her voice was as soft as a mosquito: "Yan'er has met uncle, brother; I pay my respects to His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince."

"Hey, isn't this the second cousin? Why did you arrive at this hour? I thought you really didn't dare to come!" Mu Xiuning, who was holding a sword, sneered at the embarrassed girl.

After hearing this, Mu Shiyan's eyes turned red, she fell to her knees with a "plop", and looked like she was about to cry: "Why don't you dare to come? Brother, little sister knows that you are angry because of the third sister falling into the water, but Uncle, Yan'er really didn't do it on purpose..."

Halfway through the conversation, Mu Shiyan couldn't make it up anymore, she simply lowered her head, sobbing and crying, kneeling beside her, Yun Shi quickly took over the conversation, slightly straightened her waist.

"It's like this, master. My young lady stayed up all night last night, and today she is inevitably in a trance. At that time, the young lady and the third young lady met on the bridge. The young lady saw the dead leaves on the third young lady's body, and wanted to reach out to dust her off. Unexpectedly, the leaf was twisted around the fringe, but I couldn't shake it off for a while...Miss was in a hurry, and her hands accidentally lost their sense of proportion, and then-"

"Master, my young lady is definitely not someone who is so cruel and cruel. The third lady fell into the water by accident, and after she fell into the water, my young lady was also greatly frightened. No, I haven't recovered yet." Rhyme said, after finishing speaking, he leaned over and kowtowed heavily, "Please also learn from the master!"

"However, what Lingqin and His Royal Highness said earlier is completely different from what you said just now, so how should you explain this?" Mu Xiuning said coldly, flipping the sharp blade in his hand casually, the snow light from the blade flickered On Yun Shi, it sent a chill down her spine.

"Lingqin is just a servant, so how can you take nonsense words seriously? Besides, the pool is so far away from the front hall, it's not impossible for His Highness to miss it." The ferocious aura frightened the three souls to lose seven souls, and they couldn't even squeeze out tears at this moment.

"Ke Yunshi, aren't you also a 'servant'?" Mu Xiuning turned his wrist suddenly, the color of frost flashed, and half of his hair was instantly added to the ground. Yunshi stretched out his hand in a daze, and only touched a palm of hair, " Dad, this maid has a sharp tongue and a gossip, why don't you let me—"

"A-Ning." Mo Junli, who had watched the drama for a long time, got up, walked up to the two women kneeling on the ground, and raised his jaw leisurely, "Rhyme, what you are saying is questioning the fact that our hall even 'push' and 'dust' Can't you tell the difference between your movements?"

　rhyme still has brains

　　But it's a pity that I haven't practiced martial arts (manually funny)
