Daughter Shenghua

Chapter 298 The People Behind the Scenes
The butler was hesitant to say something, because it was about Lord Hou's back house, with so many people around, he didn't know whether to say it or not.

Seeing that the housekeeper hadn't spoken for a long time, Hou Jingbian frowned, thinking that there was something hidden about this matter?Then he said to everyone: "Okay, it's getting late, you all go back and rest! We'll talk about things tomorrow."

Everyone hurriedly got up and said goodbye.Jing Bianhou winked at the housekeeper and then at Zhang Cheng.

The butler understood and hurriedly chased him out.

Zhang Cheng quietly returned soon.He knew what Master Hou meant by doing this, and he was very grateful in his heart, and he didn't say anything.

Jing Bianhou nodded to him, the meaning is self-evident.

Hou Jingbian glanced at Xiao Muyun, seeing that he had no intention of leaving at all, he felt a little unhappy.But after all, he just rescued him, so he couldn't just drive him away, so he ignored him.

"What did you find out?" Jing Bianhou said to the housekeeper.

"Master Hou, the boy who reported the letter didn't come back after he went out! The villain has already sent someone to look for it, but there is little hope of finding it." The housekeeper said.

Jingbianhou heard this but sneered and said: "Okay! Very good! Someone came to my house. Have you found out the origin of that person?"

The housekeeper hesitated for a while before saying, "Yes, it was brought back by the second young lady."

Everyone was stunned by these words, and Yun Xi never thought that this person was actually brought back by Yuan Qingyue.

"What's going on?" Jing Bianhou's voice was obviously a little cold at this time.

Seeing that Master Hou was angry, the steward didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly said: "Second Miss said that she encountered some troubles when she went to offer incense a month ago. It seems that the young man helped Second Miss a lot. Later, Second Miss saw that he was pitiful. Then I took it back to the mansion, saying it was for him to eat."

The housekeeper roughly explained the matter, but everyone knew what was going on.This is obviously a play deliberately done by someone!
It was about the daughter of Marquis Jingbian, none of them spoke.On the contrary, it was Yun Xi who spoke to excuse Yuan Qingyue.

"Daddy, Sister Qingyue probably didn't know about it."

Jingbianhou didn't say much, he still believed in his daughter in his heart.

Although many things she did made people dissatisfied, Jing Bianhou still believed that she would not hurt himself.This incident might really be a trap for him.

Yun Xi suddenly remembered what Yuan Qingyue said when she questioned herself, and couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.If she was really so stupid and used by that person, then the situation of Jingbianhou would be in danger.

But this matter is only her guess, after all Yuan Qingyue is Jing Bianhou's biological daughter, she can't talk nonsense.

Zhang Cheng took a breath, stabilized his mind, and said, "Master Hou, from this point of view, this matter was carefully planned by someone. Both the person who sent the letter to Master Hou and the person who encouraged Master Hou to go to the south of the city are all suspects."

At this time, he still didn't know about the princess's mansion, and he didn't connect the matter with Xuanwang's mansion.

But other people didn't think so, their eyes swept towards Xiao Muyun intentionally or unintentionally.

Yun Xi naturally believed that this matter had nothing to do with Xiao Muyun, so he said: "These people must know some inside information. Otherwise, it would be impossible to grasp the opportunity so well. They did this matter so quietly, and it was so easy I have found someone to take the blame for myself. I really shouldn't underestimate it!"

A few people thought deeply.Xiao Muyun also gave Yunxi a grateful smile.

He doesn't care about other people's guesses, he only cares about Yun Xi's opinion.

At this moment, Marquis Jingbian suddenly looked at Xiao Muyun, and said indifferently: "Why don't you leave?"

Xiao Muyun's hand was seriously injured, it stands to reason that he should have gone for medicine a long time ago.It's just that he can't leave until his work is finished.Apart from wanting to spend more time with Yunxi, he also has one very important thing to say.

Xiao Muyun quickly stepped forward and said respectfully: "Master Hou, the fire in the south of the city today was set off by the old man!"

"What!" Hou Jingbian was furious when he heard this, he slapped the table and stood up.

Yun Xi hurriedly grabbed him to comfort him.

At this time, I heard Xiao Muyun say again: "Although he ordered the fire to be set, the people in Prince Xuan's Mansion lit the fire in that uninhabited area, and the fires in the two streets were deliberately set by someone taking advantage of troubled waters. Their purpose is to try to further arouse our conflicts. Please also ask Hou Ye to learn from us!"

Jingbianhou raised his eyebrows and sighed secretly.He wanted to muddle through today's matter like this.

He had just sent someone to attack Xi'er on the front foot of Prince Xuan's mansion, when Xiao Muyun saved himself on the back foot.Jingbianhou was still a little unhappy.

He didn't really want to say hello to Xiao Muyun, and wanted to block his words back, but unexpectedly, he found an opportunity.

Jingbian Hou didn't know what to do, so he said, "What's going on? Tell me."

Xiao Muyun was amused for a while, and still said: "My people have been guarding the south of the city today. When Lord Hou rushed into the fire scene, he felt that there was something wrong with that woman. When that woman wanted to escape in disorder, my Someone got caught."

Jingbian Hou heard that he became interested, "Is there any result?"

He knew how powerful Xiao Muyun was, and You Yunxi was not afraid that he would lie to him here, so he asked directly.

However, Xiao Muyun took a look at Yun Xi, and then he said five words lightly: Protecting the country, Duke Yun's family!

As soon as these words came out, several people frowned.

"The Yun family?" Zhang Cheng repeated again.

Xiao Muyun said again: "It has been verified. The woman is in my hands now. If necessary, I will send her over in a while."

Zhang Cheng also nodded without hesitation.It's not that he doesn't believe in Xiao Muyun, he just doesn't like waiting for others to be led by the nose, some things are better in his own hands.

Marquis Jingbian did not object either.

Yun Xi squinted her eyes and said, "Daddy, if this is really the Yun family, then they want to take the opportunity to take revenge on you. Well, the Yun family, we haven't looked for them for a while, and they are here."

Su Xiangqing knew that Yunxi was angry at a glance, and stepped forward and said, "Xi'er, don't worry, I will make them pay the price this time. Let me handle this matter!"

Hou Jingbian looked at Su Xiangqing and was also a little dissatisfied. If he hadn't listened to his words last time, how could he provoke the Yun family for no reason.He really wasn't afraid of death, but the last time he retaliated, he hadn't come out yet, and when something like this happened again today, he was even more angry.

"You boy! Hmph! This time I will do it myself, lest you spoil my good deed again." Jing Bianhou said dissatisfied.

Su Xiangqing knew that what happened to Marquis Jingbian this time had nothing to do with him, and he also heard that Marquis Jingbian was not really angry, so he smiled and said, "How can the Marquis do it himself for such a small matter! Don't worry, this time I still can't do it well, see you soon!"

"Brat!" A smile appeared on Jingbianhou's face.

Su Xiangqing suddenly turned her head to see Xiao Muyun and said: "Xiao Shizi, you should have seen something in today's incident, right? I planned to give you a chance. It's just that they dare to attack Lord Hou. I'm afraid I will Misspoken to you."

Xiao Muyun was startled, he thought of what Su Xiangqing reminded him before, and couldn't help frowning, "Are they really united with the palace?"

Su Xiangqing sneered noncommittally.

Seeing this appearance, Xiao Muyun's heart sank.

It's just that his thoughts turned quickly. If the palace is only connected with the Yun family, it shouldn't be so despised by everyone, unless...

He glanced at Su Xiangqing again, feeling that things would not be so simple.

After thinking about it, Xiao Muyun said: "If Master Hou can be trusted, how about I go and take care of the Yun family for you? He wants to take advantage of my palace's loopholes, I can't tolerate him!"

Jingbianhou raised his eyebrows and sneered.
