Prosperous advisors

Chapter 25
Murong Xi's heart sank, he pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Tell me, what do you need me to do for you?"

Mu Qingyi lowered her eyes, and said softly: "I'm short of manpower now, and the people in Suchenghou's Mansion can't trust them. Even if there are trustworthy ones, I don't have so much time to arrange them." It takes time and energy to win people's allegiance, and now However, Mu Qingyi did not intend to slowly arrange all of this in Suchenghou's mansion.

Murong Xi was silent for a long time, looked at Mu Qingyi and said, "I know why... I can't help but want to believe you when I see you. I hope my king's decision is not wrong."

Murong Xi took off a jade pendant from his waist and put it on the table, and said calmly, "Do you know how to use it?"

Mu Qingyi hesitated for a moment, but still nodded.The shape of this jade pendant is not special, it doesn't look any different from the popular jade pendants on the market, even the quality of the jade is not the best.Mu Qingyi's hands trembled slightly. This jade pendant was once placed in a box in his grandfather's study.When she was only six or seven years old, her grandfather held her on his lap, watched her play with the jade pendant, and lovingly told her the use of the jade pendant.

There was a strange look in Murong Xi's eyes, but he didn't say much, just nodded and said: "Go to Baoguo Temple."

Mu Qingyi nodded, "Thank you, cousin."

The gazebo gradually fell silent, neither of them seemed to know what to say.Murong Xi looked down at the lukewarm tea in the teacup in front of him and remained silent.Mu Qingyi also casually played with the jade pendant in her hand, "Cousin... Qingyi still has something to ask for advice."

Murong Xi looked up at her, and Mu Qingyi asked in a low voice: "My...why did mother..."

Why did my aunt commit suicide?She has been a little puzzled.My aunt is not a weak woman, not to mention my cousin is in Suchenghou's mansion, how could my aunt let her cousin be alone and commit suicide so easily?
But in Suchenghou's mansion, Mu Qingyi occasionally made insinuations and couldn't ask what to write.The servants of Suchenghou's mansion changed a lot after the aunt committed suicide, and some of the old people who are still there are some confidantes of Mrs. Mu Changming and Mrs. Sun.Even these people don't dare to talk about the eldest lady at all.Obviously, it was severely banned.

Murong Xi sighed softly, shook his head and said: "I don't know, I only know that after the Gu family was confiscated, my father called Mrs. Qin into the palace. Mrs. Qin committed suicide in the mansion one month after leaving the palace. But...there was a rumor in the capital after Mrs. Qin passed away." Murongxi looked at Mu Qingyi and said in a low voice: "There was a rumor at that time...the Gu family had obtained a treasure today several generations ago. Obtaining that treasure may even lead to unification of the world. And these treasures... were finally entrusted to Mrs. Qin by Mrs. Gu's family."

"Treasure?" Mu Qingyi just felt a little ridiculous. She was born in the Gu family for more than ten years, and she had never heard of any treasures in the Gu family.And... the news came out after the Gu family was almost extinct, and the only aunt who knew the news was already dead, which made it even more weird.

"So... Qingyi, you have to be more careful." Murong Xi said lightly.

"Be careful?"

"Every man is innocent, but he is guilty of carrying a jade, a treasure that can rule the world... who wouldn't want it?" Murong Xi's smile was somewhat mocking.Mu Qingyi raised her eyebrows and asked, "Does my cousin believe it? Do you believe that the Gu family has such a treasure?"

Murong Xi smiled lightly, "Does the Gu family have one? Don't we know?"

If the Gu family had treasures, Gu Xiuting, the grandson, didn't know, Gu Yunge, the granddaughter, didn't know, Murong Xi, the grandson, didn't know, how could Mrs. Zhang, the wife of Qin, who is commonly known as Mrs. Hou, know?
Murong Xi left soon, and with his current status, it was not suitable for him to stay outside for too long, so as not to cause the embarrassment of Emperor Hua and his brothers for no reason.Mu Qingyi looked at the back of her cousin leaving, with a hint of sadness in her eyes.Cousin is talented and intelligent, and he made a lot of achievements in politics in his early years, so he should have been a good prince.Perhaps it was precisely because of this that Hua Huang, who was sitting on the throne, felt uneasy.Huahuang's throne was originally fought among his brothers, so he naturally didn't want to see a prince who was expected by everyone when he was getting old, not to mention that the prince's mother's family was still in the family for generations, and the power was in his hands.

Therefore, when the so-called evidence that Gu Xiang colluded with the enemy and treason was sent to Huahuang, Huahuang almost didn't even think about it, and directly betrayed Gu's family and ransacked his family, and within a month, he abolished the crown prince.All this seems to be a decision made by an emperor under extreme rage, but how many calculations and ruthlessness are involved in it is definitely beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

It was the Gu family who harmed the cousin, and the Gu family was also destroyed because of the cousin.No one can tell what is involved in this, because from the very beginning, Hua Huang's crown prince has had constant and constant ties with the Gu family.

"You pay it back, King Ning doesn't want you anymore, and King Ping is here so soon." Mu Yunrong's sharp voice sounded from behind.As soon as he turned around, he saw Mu Yunrong standing outside the gazebo with Mu Yufei and Mu Shuilian staring at him mockingly.Even Mu Yufei and Mu Shuilian, who were standing beside her, showed a bit of jealousy on their faces.

Mu Qingyi glanced at her lazily, really losing patience with this unrestrained Mu Yunrong.Glancing at the ladies not far away who secretly came here to look at people in the capital, Mu Qingyi stared at Mu Yunrong and said in a deep voice: "Sister, what should I say and what should not be said? If you still don't know, go back and ask for advice." Grandmother. Don't listen to Aunt Sun's nonsense all day long, you will be the concubine of King Ning in the future, not a concubine!"

"Mu Qingyi! I tore your mouth!" Mu Yunrong was furious. Although Mu Qingyi was talking about the Sun family and not her, no one in the capital knows the identity of the Sun family. It is no different from calling her a low-born up.What Mu Yunrong hates the most is that others mention her status as a concubine, and what she is most proud of is that she is about to become Princess Ning. Now that she is mocked by Mu Qingyi in front of so many people, she suddenly feels as if everyone is looking at her. Her eyes were full of contempt.But it never occurred to her that she was the first to provoke Mu Qingyi and insult him.

Mu Yunrong rushed towards Mu Qingyi, and Mu Yufei and Mu Shuilian naturally wanted to persuade her.However, the two of them obviously didn't work hard, they just pulled La Mu Yunrong in a gesture, screamed a few times and gave up.The person didn't hold back, but instead attracted people not far away.

"Third Sister! Third Sister, please don't do this. Fourth Sister... please apologize to Third Sister... Third Sister..." Mu Shuilian urged anxiously, but secretly gloated in her heart.Both of them are the concubine daughters of the second wife, unlike Mu Qingyi, one is the first wife's daughter-in-law and the other is the future Princess Ning who is more favored than the first wife.Best to kill!
