Prosperous Concubine

Chapter 671 Battle against Xiao Tianling (1)
"Master!" Mrs. Song cried bitterly while hugging the skeleton.

Mu Yutang raised her eyebrows, this skeleton is really Song Shu!
"Master, you died so badly!" Mrs. Song looked at the feather arrow on the skeleton's chest, crying sadly, her daughter Song Ruyan knelt beside her mother, weeping along with her.

His son Song Rufan also had eyes full of pain, and walked forward slowly: "Thank you, Shizi Xiao, the concubine Shizi helped to find the bones of my father, please accept Rufan's respect!"

Looking at the young man saluting politely, Mu Yutang sighed softly. Finding Song Shu's body was only half of the work. The other half was to find out the cause of Song Shu's death. He had an arrow pierced in his chest. The dead one: "Young Master Song, you don't need to be too polite. You know why Master Song left the Song Mansion in the middle of the night to come to Zhuangzi?"

"I don't know." Mrs. Song opened her mouth in front of Song Rufan, with tears rolling in her eyes: "That day, it was very late, and I was about to go to bed, when the master suddenly said that I had something important to come to Zhuangzi, I couldn't help it He had no choice but to prepare warm clothes for him, and told him to be careful on the road, never thought that once he left, there would be no news of him..."

Mu Yutang's eyes darkened: "Master Song is going out, did he bring his followers?"

Mrs. Song nodded, and said with a sob: "Of course I brought them with me. Two attendants and four guards went out of the mansion with the master. For 16 years, just like the master, no one was seen when he was born, and no corpse was seen when he died!"

Mu Yutang raised her eyebrows. Song Shu was killed here, and the six servants were probably more ominous. The guards hired by the Song family with a lot of money were not bad at martial arts. They could kill all four guards. The one who didn't make much noise is definitely a powerful person. Song Shu was definitely not killed by a simple thief. His death was not simple...

Suddenly, there were two abnormal fluctuations in the air, Mu Yutang stared and looked up: "Who is it?"

"It's me!" A young woman came out from the corner, with a gentle and beautiful face, sincere and clear eyes, and an exquisite figure, she was Su Biying from the General's Mansion.

A hint of surprise floated in Mu Yutang's eyes: "Cousin, why are you here?"

Su Biying smiled slightly and said: "I passed by here and heard that something happened to Zhuangzi. Mrs. Song and Ruyan are here, so I'll come and see if I can help."

Mu Yutang looked up, and there were indeed many people watching the fun gathered outside the door. The master of the Song family came to Zhuangzi, riding a car, riding a horse, bringing maidservants, and followers. The long and mighty procession shocked the people nearby.

"Yutang, what happened?" Su Biying stepped forward and asked in bewilderment.

Mu Yutang glanced at the mother and daughter of the Song family who were weeping sadly, and said in a low voice, "We found Song Shu's body."

Su Biying was stunned, and sighed softly: "So, Master Song is really dead." If you haven't seen Song Shu's body, you can still be lucky and say that he is alive. When you see the body, you can no longer deceive yourself .

"Yes, Mrs. Song personally confirmed the body. Song Shu was really killed." Mu Yutang found Song Shu's body and fulfilled half of the promise to Mrs. Song. As for the other half of the promise, she will start immediately. Investigation: "Cousin, I still have to take a step ahead. This place is a bit far from the capital, so don't stay too late."

"I know." Su Biying nodded, and carefully instructed: "Be careful on the road."

Mu Yutang hummed lightly, said goodbye to the people in the Song Mansion, walked out of Zhuangzi holding Xiao Qingyu's arm, and drove back to the capital slowly in a red sandalwood carriage.

Mu Yutang was sitting in front of the car window, sipping tea, and muttering to herself: "The arrow in Song Shu's chest went straight to his heart, and if there were no accidents, he would have died under that arrow. Another intentional murder?"

Xiao Qingyu said lightly: "If you want to find out the truth about Song Shu's death, you must first check how Song Shu behaved and whether he had any enemies..."

Mu Yutang nodded: "I know, but after 16 years, these things are not easy to find out. I need to ask Mrs. Song. Now that she has lost her husband, she is sad and painful. She probably can't think of any useful clues. Let's find out if there are any suspicious people who have been in contact with the Song family first, and then ask Mrs. Song specifically when she calms down."

Xiao Qingyu hummed lightly, stretched out his hand to gently embrace Mu Yutang's waist, rested his chin lightly on her shoulder, and said softly: "Just now Xue Yiwei found out that the ancestors of the Song family were in Luoyang, and the ancestors of the Song family have been doing business for generations. There is a set of ancestral red wedding dress and red wedding shoes, as long as the eldest son uses that set of red wedding dress and red wedding shoes as a betrothal, and let the bride wear it to marry into the Song family, the Song family will be rich and prosperous."

"Really?" Mu Yutang raised her eyebrows and looked at Xiao Qingyu. Wearing that bright red wedding gown and red wedding shoes, getting married would bring good luck to the Song family. It sounded unbelievable.

"The disciples of the Song family didn't believe this rumor at the beginning. No one in the Song family used the red wedding dress and red wedding shoes as a bride. The wedding dress and shoes were shelved. The Song family gradually began to decline. Twenty years ago, Song Shu used that red wedding dress as an engagement, and married the current Mrs. Song. After marriage, the Song family's business turned from loss to profit. After one month, they made a profit of ten thousand taels of silver, and three months later, they made a profit of one million taels of silver..."

"So amazing!" Mu Yutang's snowy eyes narrowed slightly, and the money she earned flew up, which was incredible: "Is it really all due to that red wedding dress and red wedding shoes?"

"Everyone in the world thinks it is." Xiao Qingyu hugged Mu Yutang tightly, and said leisurely: "The Song family is very honest, and the items they provide are high-quality and cheap, and they are not deceitful. The late emperor appreciated Song Shu's intelligence, sincerity and humility. The Song Mansion was handpicked as the Imperial Merchant."

Mu Yutang smiles, Song Shu is smart, and manages very well. After getting married, she has settled down and worked hard to develop the Song family's business, make the Song family's business bigger and better, become an imperial merchant, and let the Song family enjoy wealth and glory. People like supernatural things the most, so they put all the credit on the red wedding dress and red wedding shoes...

"Xiao Qingyu!" A gentle and cold call came into his ears. Mu Yutang opened the curtain and looked, only to see that the carriage had stopped at the gate of Prince Qi's mansion. The third prince Xiao Tianling stood on the steps of the gate, looking at the two Human, with a little dark light shining in his pupils.

"What's the matter?" Xiao Qingyu asked indifferently, got out of the carriage with Mu Yutang half in his arms, and naturally took her into his arms.

Looking at the big hand on Mu Yutang's waist, Xiao Tianling felt it was particularly glaring, and said coldly: "Xiao Qingyu, we Ming people don't speak dark words, you are cold and unfeeling, what happened to Xiao Qingxian?"

Mu Yutang blinked, Xiao Tianling's news was very well-informed, just as they tied Xiao Qingxian and returned to Beijing coldly, he came to the door.

Xiao Qingyu squinted at Xiao Tianling, and said calmly: "They poisoned me and Yutang to murder me, the third prince thinks, what should I do to them?"

Xiao Tianling's complexion was gloomy, and Leng Juqing knew that Xiao Qingyu was dark and cunning, yet he dared to provoke him recklessly. It was his fault for murdering you, how about I apologize to you on his behalf and promise not to trouble you again?"
