Long Song Fenghua: The Demon Queen Confused the King's Heart

Chapter 140

After a long time, the old lady opened her mouth again.

"You know what's wrong?"

The eldest lady bowed her head, her heart was already hanging in her throat, "My daughter-in-law knows her mistake."

"You don't know." The old lady stood beside her, and her voice sank.

The eldest lady was stunned for a moment, then raised her gaze, and a look of astonishment flashed across her expression.

On the old lady's face, she had never seen such a condensed expression.

"It's your fault that you didn't think carefully." The old lady said coldly, "If you want to do it, you have to make sure it doesn't leak. Now, do you understand?"

The Da Furen's face changed, and the frightened expression before was completely replaced by the astonishment.

What the old lady meant was...

"Why are you so surprised? Can't I tell which is more important?"

The old lady's eyebrows were slightly tightened, her old eyes looked at the open space in the courtyard, as if she was talking to herself.

"Our Mu family has always been a family of rules. Rules are rules and cannot be messed up. Since Yang'er has already had such a fate, we can't force him to live again."

"It's just that Mu Xinyang isn't the only heir of your eldest son, so why do you need the second eldest son to adopt him?"

The Da Furen pursed her lips, feeling uneasy, and all of them had dissipated, a strange look flashed across her eyes, she said in a deep voice: "My daughter-in-law understands what the old Furen means."

"After all, it's the daughter taught by the Li family. It's clear. I hope you really understand what I mean today."

The old lady glanced at her meaningfully, "I won't say anything superfluous, it would be great if you really understand."

Seeing that the old lady wanted to leave the door, the eldest lady also got up in a hurry, and before she could help the old lady, she heard: "You don't need to accompany me, Yang'er's funeral has to be taken care of by your own mother, Jun Ru There can be no mistakes in the marriage."

"Yes, old lady, my daughter-in-law has written down what the old lady said."

The Da Furen nodded heavily, and outside the door, layers of dark clouds shrouded it again, and it seemed that snow was coming again...

Snowflakes fell one after another, and a thin layer of new snow covered the Qiancui courtyard.

When the snow falls, the room can always add a bit of chill.

Mu Changge's scallion-like fingers lightly supported the pink-faced peach cheeks, and his clear eyes raised slightly, with a half-smile, "You said, let me be wary of the old lady?"

"That's right." Chunmei looked straight at Mu Changge, with a calm voice, "Old lady, she may not be as fair as what you see as Second Miss."

"Oh?" Mu Changge's eyebrows suddenly sank, and he slapped the table heavily with his palm, almost knocking the fine porcelain teacup to the ground.

"You servant girl, you are so courageous! How dare you talk about the old lady behind your back!?"

Chunmei shook her head, her eyes were still fixed on Mu Changge, and suddenly she smiled with a bit of desolation, and there was a trace of sadness in her eyes.

"The servant is already dying. I just want to thank the second lady for her kindness. I am willing to help and save the servant's mother. The servant has nothing to repay. The only thing I can do is to tell the second lady what the servant knows before I die. Yes, tell them all in detail."

Saying that, Chunmei knelt on the ground again, and kowtowed heavily to Mu Changge, "I only hope that I can be worthy of the second lady. As for whether the second lady believes it or not, it is not for the servant to control."

"My servant came this time to say goodbye to the second lady. If I want to come to this humble life of my servant, I can't live for too long. The servant only wants to ask the second lady. If the servant really dies unexpectedly, I only hope that the second lady can remember to agree on that day. A slave's promise."

When she said these words, Chunmei was already in tears, and she no longer regarded the rules as greater than the sky. After she finished speaking, she got up by herself, her steps faltering.

Mu Changge narrowed his eyes slightly, with thick eyelashes, which vaguely concealed his deep eyes, and no emotion could be seen from his delicate face.

"If you are afraid of death, why don't you go to Da Furen and confess me, so that you can live in peace."

Chunmei stopped in her tracks and turned her head. Despair was written on her bruised face, but her eyes were somewhat clear.

She smiled wryly, "Does the maidservant still have a choice? Only the second young lady will never lie to the maidservant, and it is better to lose the life of the maidservant alone than to implicate the maidservant's mother."

Looking into her eyes, Mu Changge's eyes slowly fell back to the teacup in front of him, and he didn't look at Chunmei again.

After Chunmei left quietly like a ghost, Suyu also hid the thin blade between her fingers back into the dark.

"The servant doesn't understand, why doesn't Miss just let the servant silence her?"

Just now, as long as Mu Changge looked at her, Chunmei wouldn't be able to walk out alive today.

Bizhu also opened her mouth and said: "What Suyu asked is, isn't Miss afraid of keeping Chunmei, what a long night dream?"

"Someone just died in the mansion, and the one who died was the Young Master Di." As soon as Mu Changge opened his mouth, the two of them looked at each other, as if they didn't understand what she meant.

But Mu Changge was not in a hurry, raised his wrist again, filled the teacup in front of him, and said, "The fourth younger sister is no different from being locked up now. But she, a personal maid who is next to the fourth younger sister, is so ignorant." At this time, you can come to our Qiancui courtyard without any influence."

Taking a sip of tea, Mu Changge smiled lightly, and raised his eyes, the two quiet lakes in his eyes were slightly shimmering.

"It's not so much that she is smart and lucky. She knows how to avoid people's eyes and ears, so she can come here so smoothly. It's better to say that someone sincerely pretended to be deaf and dumb, and let her come here for a while. .”

Suyu and the two were a little confused at first, and then their expressions changed completely.

Mu Changge smiled, slightly bent his phoenix eyes, remaining indifferent.

It seems that Mu Xinyang's tragic death really caused some people to lose their composure. Even this method of probing seemed like a headless chicken running around.

They sincerely pretended not to know, letting Chunmei come to Qiancui Courtyard was nothing more than a test, to see if she would kill Chunmei.

If he was too careful, just in case, Chunmei died here, then those who stared at her would finally find a good reason to turn against her.

Therefore, it is better to let it go than to silence it.not to mention……

The smile in Mu Changge's eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by Senhan who was as sharp as a blade, condensed in the depths of her memory.

Chunmei didn't lie, nor did she dare to lie.

Chunmei's mother was seriously ill, she went to ask Mu Junru for help, but was severely scolded by Mu Junru, because Chunmei's mother was no longer a servant of the Mu family.

My daughter is so cruel, and the desperate and extremely filial Chunmei has only one way left for Mu Changge.

Since she chose to entrust her most important mother to her, the second young lady, it meant that she would never betray Mu Changge.

Mu Changge knows better than anyone what it feels like to be loyal to others, but to be abandoned in the end, and he disdains to use the same means as those despicable people.

Chunmei's fate is her own choice, whether she lives or dies, it is her own life after she puts all her efforts into it.

However, even in the end, Chunmei's end is still a dead end. Even on this thorny road of revenge, her hands are already stained with blood, and she is still unwilling to let the undeserving person die in her own hands. .

Bizhu sighed silently, and stood on one side with her hands down. Suyu's temper was a little more straightforward, but she still couldn't help opening her mouth.

"Miss' thoughts, servants can understand, miss also has her own plans, slaves just trust her, it's just..."

Suyu hesitated for a moment, before saying: "I really don't understand, how can Chunmei's words be trusted just now? If there is really a secret in Mu's house, Miss is so smart, how could she not be aware of it before?" Woolen cloth?"

Hearing this, Mu Changge's fingertips that were gently rubbing the rim of the cup also squatted for a while, his brows sank slightly, and there was a bit of thoughtfulness in his expression.

What Chunmei told her was that there was a little-known secret hidden in this Mu residence.

Chunmei's mother used to be a maid who served the old man. This secret was discovered by Chunmei's mother inadvertently.

Chun Meiniang didn't know what the secret was, she only said that the secret was extremely important, and it was even very possible that it could change the fate of the country.

It is not known how many people in the Mu residence know this secret, but the old lady must be one of them.

Bizhu also looked suspicious, and whispered: "Yes, Miss, what she said is really mysterious. Not to mention whether there is such a secret in Mu's residence, even if there is, why does she have to tell her repeatedly? Do you want the young lady to be wary of the old lady?"

Indeed, during the years when the old lady was seriously ill, the old lady took care of all the important matters in the Mu family.It would be too far-fetched to say that she has no selfishness, but no matter when, the old lady has never really been unfair.

Only treat her... The creases between Mu Changge's brows tightened again.

If she hadn't seen through the old lady's changes in her treatment, she probably wouldn't have believed Chunmei's words.

But even if he believed it, what would be the secret?
Mu Changge thought about it carefully, but no matter how hard she tried to recall her previous life, she couldn't think of any clues related to this "secret".

She has never heard of it, or even just a few words.

Mu Changge raised his hand, and lightly supported Bu Yao on the sideburns. Under the seemingly calm expression, there was a faint hint of firmness.

Since her rebirth, many things have gradually deviated from the track of her previous life. Previously, she could always rely on the clear memory in her mind to plan ahead.

But now, when there are more and more changes, there are more and more unknowns.In the future in this Mu Mansion, I'm afraid that every step she takes will become more and more difficult, and every step will be like stepping on the sharp edge of a knife.

"Now, what is Miss going to do?" Suyu looked at her expression and asked tentatively.
