Distressed wife

Chapter 245 The Hidden Secret (3)
The girl knelt on the ground and did not dare to move, seeing Mu Ziyan approaching, she cried even more sadly.

Mu Ziyan squatted halfway, and took out a silk handkerchief from her cuff to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, "What's your name?"

"Slave Ying'er." The girl replied in a low voice.

"Oh." Mu Ziyan got up slowly, "Ying'er, there is a piece of purple inkstone missing in this room, do you know where it went?"

"The maidservant never went in, so I don't know." Ying'er replied in a low voice.

"You really haven't gone in?" Mu Ziyan stared at the soles of her shoes with downcast eyes, and then said, "It's just that when I went in just now, I found a row of footprints on the ground. Sister Lu, just look, but the shoes she was wearing on her feet This double?"

"Let me take a look." Lady Lu stepped forward and took a visual inspection, then took off Yinger's shoes, entered the room, turned around and looked at Mu Ziyan, "It's the footprints."

"My servant...Miss Big Cousin, my servant did go in, but I really don't know about the Ziyan." Ying'er replied quickly, looking up at her, "My servant was only lured in by that female ghost."

"Really?" Mu Ziyan smiled lowly, "Then I just asked you if you went in, why did you deny it?"

"Slave...Slave is afraid." Ying'er whispered, "If you say you're afraid, that female ghost will come and claim her life."

"You are not afraid of taking your life, but you are worried that if you say it, people will know that you sneaked into this house to find something." Mu Ziyan said sharply.

"I don't know what Miss Da Biao is talking about?" Ying'er immediately lowered her eyes and denied it.

"There must be secrets hidden in this room. You have sneaked in here several times, but you have not touched the valuables inside. However, the desk and the cabinet have been tampered with. Could it be that you are looking for something?" Mu Ziyan sneered. , "What are you looking for?"

"Your maidservant is wronged." Ying'er hastily cried out.

"I remember that the second uncle gave Aunt Qiu a generous dowry back then. Later, when things got out and Aunt Qiu committed suicide, the dowry disappeared. Did you sneak into this house to hunt for treasure?" Mu Ziyan Shen Sheng said.

Everyone was confused by what they heard, Su Qinrou stepped forward in confusion, "Sister Mu, since she is here to hunt for treasure, what about the scratches on her body?"

"This courtyard is called Qiuheyuan. I think there is a lotus pond behind this courtyard?" Mu Ziyan looked at Mrs. Guogong and asked.

"That's right, but no one has lived in this yard for more than ten years, so the lotus pond is also deserted." Mrs. Guo said in a low voice.

"Cousin, order someone to salvage the lotus pond." Mu Ziyan looked at Qi Xuan and said.

"I'll go now." Seeing what Mu Ziyan said, Qi Xuan immediately understood, and took the housekeeper and a few servants to the lotus pond in the backyard.

That Yinger drooped her eyes and said nothing, trembling with fright.

The others were also silent at the moment.

Zhang Ni looked at Mu Ziyan's indifferent eyes, and then a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he took a step forward, "How did you find out?"

"Want to hear?" Mu Ziyan raised her eyes to look at Zhang Yu, and smiled proudly.

"All ears." Zhang Yu hurriedly bowed to her.

Zhang Ni's actions obviously stunned everyone. In the capital, no one knows that Zhang Shizi is cold, arrogant, noble and unreasonable, but now he is showing such a warm smile to Mu Ziyan, and posing this bottom line The posture is really jaw-dropping.

Zhang Ni didn't take it seriously, but just looked at Mu Ziyan, wanting to know how this girl saw through.

Mu Ziyan smiled slightly, "Wait a minute."

Zhang Zong also made a good guess, but he still had some doubts in his heart. He turned his eyes and looked at Mrs. Lu, and then stood beside Mu Lingxuan, "Your sister, it's really a pity. He is a man, and he will definitely become a famous minister of the generation."

Seeing that Zhang Zong spoke highly of Mu Ziyan, Mu Lingxuan said, "Don't think of my sister."

"I don't dare." Zhang Zong quickly waved his hand and said, "However, I really want her to sit with me more."

"To visit dead people?" Mu Lingxuan shook his head and said, "I don't want to."

After a while, I saw Qi Xuan coming out, and the servant behind him carried a man out, and then put him on the ground.

The timid Miss Shijia screamed in fright and passed out.

And those who were more courageous quickly turned their heads and did not dare to take a second look.

Mu Ziyan stepped forward to take a look, then turned to look at Mrs. Lu, "Sister Lu, it's your turn."

"En." Mrs. Lu responded slightly, then stepped forward, squatted down and inspected carefully, and then said, "I was injured by a sharp weapon, and it was fatal with a single blow."

"Ying'er, I didn't expect you to have this ability. Since you can kill someone with a single blow, you don't have to pretend anymore, right?" Mu Ziyan's eyes were slightly cold, and then she gave Qi Xuan a wink.

That Yinger got up quickly, and came towards Mu Ziyan, then turned sideways, and grabbed Qi Xueer's neck.

"Don't come here." Ying'er's eyes were fierce, and she didn't have the timid look just now, but now she was full of murderous intent.

Qi Xueer's face was pale, and she didn't dare to move. She suppressed the fear in her heart and whispered, "Who are you?"

"It doesn't matter who she is. The important thing is that you are not the only one who did what happened tonight. That female ghost is also your accomplice, right?" Mu Ziyan said with a smile, and then took a step forward, "Do you think you can really do it?" Escape?"

"Hmph." Ying'er narrowed her eyes slightly, and glared at Mu Ziyan angrily, "You ruined my good business tonight, take your life!"

As Ying'er said, she pushed Qi Xueer towards Mu Ziyan forcefully, and then flew to grab her, Mu Ziyan raised her hand to take Qi Xueer, Zhang Ni hurriedly grabbed Mu Ziyan's arm, In the area, Qi Xuan has already flown up to get Ying'er together with Mu Lingxuan.

Zhang Bi grabbed Mu Ziyan's arm, and Qi Xue'er bumped into her arms, she took a few steps backwards, fortunately Zhang Bi's strength was strong enough, otherwise, she would really be caught by Ying'er , or was directly knocked to the ground by Qi Xueer.

After she stood still, she turned to look at Zhang Yu, "Thank you, cousin Zhang."

"As long as you're fine." Zhang Yu said in a low voice, a look of worry flashed across his eyes.
