Family affection? Is it important to have rights?

Chapter 176 Strategy



Chapter 176 Strategy

Mu Tangxi was still in his eldest brother's yard listening to how they were trying to find out the person behind the scenes.

She leaned back in her chair, lowered her eyes nonchalantly, and looked at the tea in her hand.

At this moment, a servant suddenly came to the door and reported, "Master, Third Master, and Miss! The master has found out who murdered the Second Master!"

Mu Jinfeng and Mu Jinxi raised their heads abruptly, "Who is it?!"

Mu Tangxi glanced at the servant. Isn’t this the servant who served his mother?

The mother became smarter and knew to notify them in the name of the father.

The servant said, "It's Aunt Lin's child, Mu Jinrong!"

When Mu Jinfeng heard the first half of the sentence, he thought it was Mu Lianxue. He stood up and wanted to find her to seek justice for his second brother.

But...Mu Jinrong?

Did he hear it wrong?

Mu Jinfeng turned to look at his third brother and sister, only to see that they were also very surprised and turned back.

How could Mu Jinrong harm his second brother like this? How did he do it?

What tricks can a four-year-old come up with?

"Where's Mu Lianxue?"

The servant replied respectfully, "She had a fever today and has been lying in bed."

As servants in front of the lady, the servants also unanimously refused to call Mu Lianxue and Mu Jinrong the Second Miss and the Young Master.

Mu Jinfeng frowned, which meant that Mu Lianxue would not be able to go out today.

So it is really Mu Jinrong?

He would rather believe that it was Lin Xueruo who instructed Mu Jinrong to do this. After all, how could such a young child understand such things?

Whether it is Lin Xueruo or Mu Jinrong, they are all outsiders, so just take revenge together!

Mu Jinfeng casually waved the servant away.

Mu Tangxi was somewhat surprised that his father and mother had not yet discovered that the culprit was Mu Lianxue.

Or did they eliminate Mu Lianxue from the list just because she had a fever?

"We must take revenge on that concubine and her child, otherwise what happened to my second brother will happen to us next time!" Mu Jinxi said in an intense tone.

He thought about what happened to his eldest brother at the eldest princess' banquet, and what had just happened to his second brother, and became a little panicked for a moment.

Next time, it won't be his turn, right? !

Mu Jinfeng also agreed with his third brother's point of view, and Mu Tangxi nodded in agreement.

"That mistress seems to care a lot about my father, so let's start from there!" Mu Jinfeng keenly noticed Lin Xueruo's weakness.

Although he didn't want to say it, Mu Jinfeng had to admit that this concubine seemed to love his father very much and was not after money and power.

"I'm afraid that concubine will be very sad to lose her father's favor. She will end up seeking death herself, and we won't have to do anything about it!"

Mu Jinxi was not stupid either, he smiled maliciously.

Mu Tangxi looked at them with squinted eyes, and occasionally agreed with a few words.

However, the eldest brother and the third brother did not pay too much attention to her. This was normal. They were seriously discussing how to retaliate.

Mu Tangxi suddenly said, "How about we tell our second brother that Mu Jinrong was the one who did it, and let him find a way to get revenge himself?"

Mu Jinfeng and Mu Jinxi were stunned for a moment. Indeed, this could help the second brother calm down quickly.

"Okay, I will talk to my second brother about this. You guys go back first." Finally, Mu Jinfeng agreed first.

Mu Jinxi and Mu Tangxi also left happily.

Mu Jinxi wanted to go back to her room to calm down the shock she felt today from what happened to her second brother. It was so scary that she felt like she was going to have a nightmare tonight!

Before leaving, Mu Tangxi went to his eldest brother's room and took a look, but did not see his eldest brother's personal servant Mo Qing.

So what did Mo Qing do?

She glanced at Dong Zhu beside her and said, "Mo Qing". Dong Zhu immediately understood what the lady meant and quietly left to investigate.

Mu Tangxi walked back slowly and leisurely. The servants in the yard were still working as usual, but she paused as soon as she stepped into the house.

Looking up at the shadows in the room, Shen Qiu slowly walked out.

Perhaps Shen Qiu himself did not notice that the ambition in his eyes was particularly conspicuous, as if he was a wild wolf waiting for an opportunity to strike.

However, Mu Tangxi was not afraid at all. Instead, she waved at him casually.

Shen Qiu lowered his voice and said, "Miss, I discovered another big secret!"

Mu Tangxi was sitting on the chair. Although he was shorter than the other one, his aura overwhelmed Shen Qiu who was standing.

It was as if he was looking down at Shen Qiu from high above.

It was such a gentle look, yet it seemed so powerful.

Shen Qiu wanted to ask the young lady to guess, but inexplicably abandoned this idea and said directly, "I just went to check the master's pulse and found that the master was poisoned!"

Mu Tangxi raised his eyebrows. Father was poisoned?

She asked softly, "So how did you solve it?"

Shen Qiu smiled and said, "Of course I'll ask the master to invite the imperial physician from the palace. I don't want to be noticed by the master."

Mu Tangxi nodded slightly, "Well done."

Regardless of whether Shen Qiu did it by accident or not, this action could just make the Crown Prince and the Second Prince, who had just been alert to the Third Prince and the Prime Minister's Mansion, feel at ease.

After all, the Crown Prince and the Second Prince least want to see another prince competing with them for the throne.

And the Emperor...

There is no guarantee that the emperor will ask the imperial physician to treat my father more slowly. After all, if the imperial physician does not listen to the emperor, who else can he listen to?

My father was a man who valued his life, so he didn't dare to delay any longer and went looking for a doctor who could treat him.

So even though he knew the emperor had this intention, he still had to ask the imperial physician to treat him.

"You did a great job. How can I reward you?"

Mu Tangxi repeated it again, with a strange tone in the second half of the sentence.

But Shen Qiu didn't hear it at all, he was looking forward to the lady's reward.

Five years is enough time for Shen Qiu to develop a habit, that is, if you do well, you will be rewarded!

If you don't do well, you can only blame yourself for your bad luck.

Mu Tangxi thought for a while, and finally said, "I see that you have been very tired these days. Why don't I let you rest until I get married, and then give you a hundred taels of silver?"

Shen Qiu began to nod quickly, fearing that if he nodded too slowly, he would lose the reward.

He has had little time to rest in recent years, let alone rest until the young lady's wedding banquet, which adds up to more than a month!

Mu Tangxi watched Shen Qiu's back as he left through the window, and suddenly said to himself, "Shen Qiu is already 23 years old, it's time for him to get married."

"Yes."

At some point, a person appeared behind Mu Tangxi. He was wrapped in clothes and had a full-face mask on his face. It was hard to tell whether he was a man or a woman. One could only tell from his voice that he was probably a woman.

Mu Tangxi smiled slightly, "Lingyi, go ask those women around 20 years old and see who is willing to make the sacrifice."

Lingyi knelt on one knee and said in a serious voice, "They are willing to do anything for their master."

Mu Tangxi raised his hand and gently stroked Lingyi's head, "Be good, go ask."

Ling paused for a long time before he vaguely said "hmm".
