Outer Room

Author: Chu Qianmo

On the fifth day of Kong Yijia's death, the flying pigeons sent to the exile had already brought back a reply.

The reply stated that Jie Chai's body had been found. In the grass a little further away from Jie Chai's body, a shackled man's body was found. Judging from his age, he was about sixteen or seventeen years old. His face was ruined and vaguely visible.

You can also see half of the word "prison" on the forehead. Based on various signs, it is guessed that the body should be that of the exiled prisoner Mu Yong!

The three people probably lost their lives when they encountered robbers on the path.

As soon as the news came back, Mu Mingyuan's suspicion was almost cleared.

Since Jing Zhaoyin had no reason to detain Mu Yong anymore, he released him.

After Mu Yong returned, he was no longer as showy as before. Instead, he was extremely dull. He seemed to have become a little stupid.

Because this matter was tried by Jing Zhaoyin, it did not alarm too many people. Even Mu Mingyuan did not know that the judgment had been completed. Jing Zhaoyin reported the matter to the emperor. The emperor looked at it, only sneered, and said

Nothing was said.

Seeing that he came back safely, no one else had any reaction except Mu Mingyuan whose expression changed slightly.

There was no expression on Mu Yong's seemingly dull face, but the hands in his sleeves were clenched tightly, and his nails seemed to be digging into his flesh.

Mu Mingyuan said: "When you come back, keep a vigil for your mother!"

Mu Yong nodded numbly.

Mu Mingyuan didn't say much, turned around and left.

Mu Yong looked at his back. The look in his father's eyes showed that he no longer had the same expectations and respect for him as before. His face was sullen and not good-looking. There was even disgust that he concealed but failed to conceal!

Of course Mu Mingyuan knew that there would be no problem in this matter. Qin Yan would handle everything well. As long as Aunt Qin was still in the house, Qin Yan would not dare to betray him. However, Mu Yong would only cause trouble for him.

His son, after he made his first move, he thought he was dead.

In the evening, both father and son were in the mourning hall. Suddenly, a servant came quickly and said something in Mu Mingyuan's ear. He frowned, got up and hurried out.

Mu Yong stood up and wanted to leave.

Wu Zhong hurriedly stopped him: "Second Young Master, where are you going?"

Mu Yong frowned, and his voice was gloomy and stern: "Do you want to take care of where I go?"

Wu Zhong subconsciously took a step back and said: "Second Young Master, my wife has passed away. As a son, you should observe filial piety in the mourning hall!"

Mu Yong chuckled lightly. Although it was a laugh, it was like the poison spewed by a poisonous snake, which made people's hair stand on end. He looked at Wu Zhong with a sinister look in his eyes, which made Wu Zhong take a step back unconsciously.

The young master's gaze is so terrifying.

Mu Yong has already said: "Butler, I am the second young master, the second young master Mu Huangfeng, my aunt is dead, there is no need for me, a bastard, to keep watch over her, right?"

Wu Zhong: "..."

Even if you are a concubine, of course you should guard it. Besides, don't you know clearly whether you are a concubine?

However, the look in the young master's eyes made him dare not say anything. If he said he wanted to guard, the young master might be able to call someone over immediately and beat him to death with sticks.

In the past, the young master had beaten to death with sticks those who disobeyed him. He even asked all the servants in the courtyard to watch, saying that he was killing the chickens to scare the monkeys!

So even though Wu Zhong is the housekeeper, he is actually worried about Mu Yong.

Mu Yong went out, and Ah San, the boy in his courtyard, showed his head from the corner of the street. Mu Yong said in a low voice: "Which direction?"

Ah San pointed to the right and said: "Ah Si is following, leaving marks along the way. Master, do we really want to follow?"

After all, he is the master!

Also, the first thing the young master did when he returned home was not to go to the mourning hall first, but to find the two of them and tell them to take care of things.

Over the years, they have been following Mu Yong, knowing his character and methods, and dare not disobey his orders.

Mu Yong only glanced at him coldly, and that cold look made Ah San shut up quickly.

Ah San let him go to the carriage. The carriage was hired from a horse and carriage shop. It was small and inconspicuous. Ah San put a big hat on his head to cover half of his face and started to drive the carriage.

He didn't know what the young master wanted to do, and he and Ah Si were not allowed to wear human clothes. At this moment, even if he was sitting on the shaft of the carriage driving the carriage, he didn't even notice it.

Following the marks left by Ah Si along the way, Ah San drove the carriage all the way to an alley, where he saw the sneaky Ah Si.

Ah Si pointed to one of the courtyards and said: "Young Master, I have entered this courtyard!"

Mu Yong took a look and saw that the courtyard door was closed, and his face turned ugly. No. 32 Furong Lane, this was a name Mu Qingyu said that day. He didn't know why she said that without any beginning or end.

An address. Now, he understood somewhat.

He wanted to laugh, so Mu Qingyu knew all Mu Mingyuan's sneakiness?

Ah Si had done a lot of things for him and understood his thoughts very well, so he said: "Master, there is a hole on the wall of the courtyard over there. You can go in. I have tried it just now. Master, do you want to know who I went to see?"

?Slave, please go and find out?"

When Mu Yong heard this, he said, "Take me to have a look."

There was grass growing at the entrance of the dog cave, and it was in a corner, so it was not very conspicuous. As Si was about to crawl, Mu Yong kicked him and said with a sullen face, "Young man, go by yourself!"

Ah San and Ah Si were both shocked. This was a dog hole. How could his young master climb into it?

It is already very strange that the young master is following the old master, but the young master actually goes into a dog hole.

Mu Yong looked at the two boys and said, "Stay nearby and don't go anywhere!"

The two nodded quickly and gave them some courage, but they didn't dare not listen.

Mu Yong lay down and crawled through the dog hole.

He could understand the shock in Ah San and Ah Si's eyes, but in his heart there was only a sneer. What was the point of digging into a dog hole? He couldn't sleep every night during the past few days in prison. As long as he closed his eyes, he would think of those dogs.

The mouse, and the jailer who died without any illness.

Later, Wu Zhong gave him food again, but he still fed the rats. This time, he did not dare to give it to the jailer again.

Although those mice ran away, Mu Yong felt that they should also be dead. This is true to what Mu Qingyu said, if it doesn't work once, there will be a next time!

It's just that they must not have expected that in prison, he would rather eat prison food that even dogs would eat than touch the exquisite delicacies they brought him!

Otherwise, why was Mu Mingyuan so surprised when he saw him?

Mu Yong hid behind the flower tree and saw someone walking in the yard, their steps quick.

I also heard people talking, saying that they had fetal gas and called a doctor.

Mu Yong was like a rat in the gutter, taking advantage of the darkness of night when others were not paying attention, following those people and slowly arrived at a room.

In the room, a middle-aged man's voice came over: "Don't be afraid, little lady. Although there were signs of miscarriage before, I have already taken the miscarriage, and now the situation is stable. I just need to rest well and recuperate for a few days."

That’s all.”

There is a woman inside, a pregnant woman.

After the doctor finished the diagnosis and treatment, he prescribed a prescription and went out. A man escorted him out the door.

From the lanterns hanging on the eaves, you can clearly see that the man is Mu Mingyuan.

As Mu Mingyuan walked, he asked, "Doctor, it's been more than two months now. Is it possible to tell the difference between men and women?"

The doctor stroked his beard and didn't answer for a while.

Mu Mingyuan took out a piece of silver from his arms and handed it over.

The doctor hurriedly took it and said: "The cun pulse is active and the disease on the left is stronger than the right. It is a male fetus!"

Mu Mingyuan said: "Is it accurate?"

The doctor said: "Madam's pulse has been checked more than seven times in the past two months, and there is nothing wrong!"

Mu Mingyuan was overjoyed and said: "That's good!" He would finally have a clean, newly born son who could be re-taught by him to continue his bloodline and bring glory to his family.

Isn’t this the legitimate son? It doesn’t matter. We’ll talk about having a son first.

As for the legitimate son, if the second wife he marries in the future gives birth to a son, that would be even better, as there is no need to worry about having too many sons. If he cannot have a son, if he raises this son to his knees, he will still be the legitimate son.

When Mu Yong heard this, he finally understood why he was willing to go to great lengths to get him back, but then mercilessly gave him poisonous food in order to kill him silently.

It turned out that Mu Mingyuan had already set up another apartment and had children with other women before he was exiled.

Before getting him back, the foreigner was not pregnant yet, and he was Mu Mingyuan's only son;

The reason he was able to send someone to deliver poisonous food this time was because his wife was already pregnant, possibly a son.

Therefore, it doesn't matter at all whether he dies or not.

Especially now that it is confirmed that the one in the belly is a male fetus, then his existence is superfluous.

He didn't want to believe Mu Qingyu's words, and even resisted from the bottom of his heart, but he knew that Mu Qingyu was right. His mother was poisoned to death by Mu Mingyuan.

He also looked down on his mother, who could do nothing but please Mu Mingyuan, but she still had no reservations about his son. She would give him whatever he wanted. If he got into trouble, she would secretly give him money and use it to

Mu Mingyuan's power, or the use of manpower from grandpa's uncle, settled the matter.

But she is dead!

He is going to die too!
