Father, who is both a heir and a descendant, is still biased; the bound system has gone berserk.
Chapter 542 The Beaded Pearl Appears Again
The others were also injured by the glint in their eyes; they all covered their eyes and fell to the ground groaning in pain.
The commotion quickly attracted the servants of the mansion, and in the blink of an eye, chaos ensued.
A quarter of an hour later, several physicians from the prefecture who had accompanied him from Jiangnan turned pale and broke out in a cold sweat. They looked at Mu Changqing, whose face was gloomy, and felt utterly helpless.
"Master, the young masters and ladies have indeed gone blind."
Mu Changqing's face was frighteningly dark. "Blindness?"
His gaze swept over the children one by one; all of them had unfocused, empty eyes, unable to see.
Even in the most severe case, Musiding's eyes were still constantly watering.
"What's going on? Why have your eyes suddenly turned like this?"
Mu Changqing was completely unable to accept this news.
Mu Nanwu, whose eyes were covered by a black veil, was the calmest. Even after confirming that she was blind, she did not panic but calmly explained the situation to Mu Changqing.
"Father, we were all drinking tea and chatting in the courtyard when my second brother climbed up a tree to look at the Mu residence across the street. Suddenly, a white light shot towards us."
"The white light stung our eyes, causing a sharp pain, especially in my second brother."
"A burst of white light shot out?"
Mu Changqing frowned. "Why are you looking at the Mu residence across the street?"
Mu Xiding closed his eyes, his face contorted in pain. "Father, so what if we look at the Mu residence across the street? We haven't done anything, can't we even take a look?"
That white light must be the work of Ying Yufu. Hmph, rumors say she has the power of a goddess, but I think it's clearly sorcery!
His voice was broken and distorted from the pain, and even revealed hatred.
No one spoke in the room. Mu Changqing remained silent for a moment before saying, "Regardless of the truth, I will visit the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion tomorrow. You will all stay here to recuperate."
"Father, why don't we go directly to the Mu residence and ask them what's going on?" Mu Xiding said resentfully.
Mu Changqing frowned and coldly snapped, "Idiot, shut up!"
Musi reluctantly shut his mouth.
Mu Dongxu also covered his eyes with a ribbon. He spoke in a deep voice: "Xi Ding, when Father came to the capital, he not only did not pay his respects to the old lady, but went to the Mu residence to question her. We have no evidence. What do you think the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion will think?"
Although Ying Yufu is the Princess of Anguo, she only has the backing of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion. As long as the old lady and the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion speak up, Ying Yufu will have to obediently hand over the method to restore our eyes.
Mu Nanwu also said, "Eldest brother is right. Second brother, you must never act impulsively in the future."
"I understand." Mu Xiding realized that he had acted impulsively before.
Mu Changqing glanced at his eldest son and daughter with satisfaction and instructed the servants, "Take good care of the young masters and ladies."
Then, turning to Sun Boyan, who had been cowering quietly in the corner like a chicken, he said, "Nephew, I've dragged you into this mess."
Sun Boyan, who had also lost his sight, was in despair. Hearing this, he could only force a smile and say, "Uncle, you're too kind. We'll definitely get better."
Despite saying that, Sun Boyan was actually very distressed.
He has truly suffered an undeserved misfortune.
[Host, they're probably all blind by now. Hmph, if they keep spying on you in the middle of the night, they'll talk bad about you!]
Xiao Dian looked relieved.
Ying Yufu put away all the storybooks. [Mu Changqing will definitely visit his maternal grandmother at the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion tomorrow.]
The effects of the polar day light only last for three days; after that, their eyes will recover on their own.
She was just giving them a small lesson.
If they continue to act recklessly, she wouldn't mind making them blind and mute forever.
As for Mu Changqing, who dared to use Sun Boyan to give Beilizhu to secretly harm his maternal grandmother, this person must not be allowed to live.
"Little Dian, let's go to sleep. We'll go see a play tomorrow."
The next morning, Mu Changqing prepared generous gifts and went to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion to pay his respects.
"Changqing greets his aunt and uncle!"
Mu Changqing addressed his aunt and uncle as "aunt and uncle" repeatedly, showing no intention of treating himself as an outsider.
In terms of seniority, the old lady was indeed Mu Changqing's aunt.
Going back further, the old lady's father and Mu Changqing's grandfather were brothers born of the same mother.
The blood relation is indeed not far.
The old lady was clearly delighted to see Mu Changqing. "Oh dear, child, why are you bowing like that? Get up!"
Mu Changqing got up, and the old lady immediately invited him to sit down.
"Changqing, when did you arrive in the capital? It's such a long journey, were you tired?"
The old lady was very concerned.
Mu Changqing said, "Aunt, I'm not tired. I heard that Princess Anguo is getting married soon, so I came here to offer my congratulations."
"You're so thoughtful, child. Oh, right, this is your cousin Shangguan Jian, this is your eldest cousin's wife, and this is your second cousin Shangguan Hong. Your second cousin's wife just gave birth and is currently in confinement, so she's not here. These are all junior members of the family."
The old lady introduced them one by one.
Mu Changqing greeted them one by one, and then praised Shangguan Fei and the other juniors.
After exchanging pleasantries, Mu Changqing instructed his attendants to bring out the gifts.
He first presented a sandalwood box and said, "Aunt, there are six Everlasting Pearls inside. Please take a look."
"The Everlasting Pearls?" The old lady was very surprised. She had someone take the box and open it. Inside, on a piece of soft silk, were six golden pearls arranged quietly.
Each one is the size of an egg, crystal clear, radiating a soft glow, and exceptionally beautiful.
The old lady's eyes suddenly darkened.
The six precious pearls in this box are larger and look better than the one Sun Boyan sent last time.
But precisely because of this, its harm to the human body is even more terrifying and merciless.
She had considered that the Mu family might not accept Fu'er becoming the new head of the family, but she never expected that Mu Changqing would not even spare the life of this old woman.
A flash of coldness crossed her eyes, but the old lady's expression returned to normal in an instant.
Others might not think much of it, but the Duke of Zhenguo had been devoted to his wife all his life, so how could he not notice the change in her expression?
He leaned closer and peeked into the box in the old lady's hand. When he saw the few seemingly beautiful but actually deadly poisonous beads, his eyes instantly turned cold.
The old lady sensed the change in his aura, slowly closed the box, and smiled, "These Everlasting Spring Pearls are truly rare. The six you sent are of top quality, aren't they?"
"Yes, Aunt, what good things haven't you seen? Of course, your nephew will give you the best. The effects of this Everlasting Pearl..."
Mu Changqing was completely unaware of the changes in the eyes of the Duke of Zhenguo and the old lady, and went on to explain in detail the effects of the Beili Pearl that could cure all diseases and restore youth.
"This is really good stuff, Changqing, you're so thoughtful."
The old lady spoke slowly.
Her eyes were as deep as the sea as she looked at Mu Changqing and said, "It's quite a coincidence, this is not the first time I've seen the Everlasting Spring Pearl. A while ago, a junior from the Sun family also sent us one, and he has already told us about its wonders."
I just didn't expect you to send six more of such top-quality stones.
Mu Changqing feigned surprise, "The Sun family actually possesses such a treasure? Aunt, I've made a fool of myself."
"Oh, these six you sent are quite something."
