Stunning Phoenix Emperor

Chapter 398

It seems that he still murmured about Mu Qiubai, this person can see clearly and can grasp the situation very well, everything mentioned in Bailiqing's letter, she can perfectly do it.It's just... Mu Hong is indeed the biggest flaw.
Opening his mouth, he was about to say something, but at this moment, there was an unusual commotion outside.

"What's going on?" Mu Qiubai got up and opened the door of the study room, and said in a deep voice.
"Ma'am!" Soon, an attendant hurried over, saw Qin Yue sitting peacefully with his back to the door through the crack of the door, hesitated for a moment, and then leaned over and whispered something in Mu Qiubai's ear.
Mu Qiubai changed his face with a "shua!", motioned for the attendants to go down, frowned, seemed to be in deep thought for a while, and then closed the door again.
"Come?" Qin Yue turned around.
"You heard everything, right?" Mu Qiubai nodded.She didn't think that at such a distance, the attendants lowered their voices so that such experts could not hear it, it was just unnecessary!
"It's a bit later than I thought." Qin Yue smiled contemptuously, with confidence in mind.
"There is a secret road in the backyard, which can lead to another street. The exit is the dry well in the backyard of a silk and satin factory. Once you get there, it will be easy to leave." Mu Qiubai said.
"Where is the property of the Mu family?" Qin Yue frowned.
"It used to be." Mu Qiubai said with a wry smile, "Including the tunnels of the Mu family's ancestral house, it was the back road left by several generations ago. It has been resold, but because it has nothing to do with the Mu family, it will not be monitored."
"Aren't you worried that the people who bought the house don't want to leave a useless dry well and fill it up?" Qin Yue said helplessly.
"That's not going to happen." Mu Qiubai said confidently, "The topography of that dry well is absolutely impossible to dig water out of, don't worry about being submerged in the exit, and that location is the center of the whole house, a place of good geomantic omen, unless it is demolished and rebuilt , otherwise it will not be filled.”
When Qin Yue heard the words, she suddenly realized that if the common people wanted to break ground, they would like to invite a Feng Shui master to take a look. If that was the case, although the dry well was useless, most of it would be preserved.
"Young Master, Young Master?" At this moment, someone knocked on the window twice, followed by Mei Xin's anxious voice.
"What?" Qin Yue pushed open the window and said coldly.
"The officers and soldiers outside seem to be targeting you, do you want me to send them away?" Mei Xin said.
Mu Qiubai raised his eyebrows when he heard that, sure enough, this servant is not a simple role, a group of officers and soldiers, a local prefect, so easy to "send"?
"Don't startle the snake." Qin Yue shook her head.
He spared Nangongxue's life just to let her pass back the news that "the enemy is blood fiend Qinyue".The prefect of Qincheng must have thought that what he was going to hunt was just a reckless man, he just wanted to convince her that once Mei Xin's identity was exposed, the enemy would be extra cautious in their actions, and it would be difficult to let them show their flaws.
Mei Xin shrugged her shoulders, and then showed an innocent expression to Mu Qiubai: "Mrs. Mu, you should go out quickly. Missy's temper can only be blamed if she doesn't offend others to death."
Mu Qiubai could only smile wryly, why did he give birth to such a stupid daughter, or innocence.
"Where is the entrance?" Qin Yue asked suddenly.
"Huh?" Mu Qiubai was stunned for a moment, and then said, "I'll have someone take you there."
"There is another word, Mrs. Mu might as well listen to it." Qin Yue said again.
"Please tell me." Mu Qiubai straightened his face.
"We're leaving today. Ma'am, I just need to ask the prefect to search the Mu's mansion. After all, Ma'am is a palace ordered by the imperial court to return to her hometown to keep her filial piety. She will definitely be revived in the future. I believe there is no evidence, so there is nothing the prefect can do. But... ..." Qin Yue looked at her, and said with a slight smile, "This world is not all fair and above board, Madam will have to stay in Qin City for three years."
"You..." Mu Qiubai's eyes turned cold, then he nodded and gritted his teeth, "Thank you for your advice!"
At this moment, she fully understood why Qin Yue went in and out of Mu's house every day, but only officers and soldiers came to him today. It wasn't because he was careless today and didn't cover up his whereabouts, but... on purpose.
"You're welcome." Qin Yue had a calm expression on her face.
Mu Qiubai went out and closed the door behind his back.
Mei Xin pushed herself hard on the window sill, and quickly rolled into the house.
"You still want to come with me?" Qin Yue looked at him and frowned slightly.
"Don't worry, I won't drag you down." Mei Xin smiled.
Qin Yue was silent for a while, noncommittal.
Soon, a small figure pushed open the door, poked his head in, and called timidly: "Brother Liu?"
"It's you?" Qin Yue was also taken aback. She didn't expect Mu Qiubai to let her youngest son, Mu Lan, who was under ten years old, take them to the secret road at ease?
"Come with me, there is no one over there now." Mu Lan looked around like a little adult, and waved to them.
Qin Yue followed without saying a word. He didn't care about traps or anything. In the face of absolute strength, any trap is ridiculous.What's more, Mu Qiubai asked his youngest son to come, presumably to reassure him, to show that he really has no malicious intentions.
Mu Qiubai is a smart person, even if he couldn't turn to the East Palace all of a sudden, he would never set up such a powerful enemy for no reason.
Perhaps it was because the people in the mansion were concentrated in the front yard, the path leading to the back yard was exceptionally quiet, and the noise from the front door gradually faded away as they walked.
"It's here." Mu Lan held a candle to a well in the backyard.
"The entrance is also a dry well?" Qin Yue asked curiously.
"The secret door at the bottom of the well is very obvious, you can see it when you go down." Mu Lan explained, "After you go in, I will pull the mechanism so that the water in the well will not exceed the height of the secret door, so no one will find out .”
