The legitimate daughter returns, and the princess goes crazy
Chapter 17 Searching Qiyun Pavilion
"My biological brother is the eldest son of the Mu family and the legitimate successor of the Mu family. Is a bastard worthy of the attention of a legitimate daughter like me?"
The corners of Mu Yan's red lips curled up into a smile, but that smile contained a hint of sarcasm. She turned around and looked at Xi Chen and said.
"Master, do you have any evidence? The Dali Temple needs solid evidence to convict a criminal. You just said I'm guilty without any evidence. I'm afraid you won't be able to convince people."
In the previous life, it was because of Xi Chen's words that Mu Yan was branded as someone who poisoned her half-brother and was jealous and vicious. Not only was she punished by her father to kneel in the ancestral hall, but the relationship between father and daughter also began to break down and they gradually became estranged.
Somehow this matter got out, and as if someone was pushing it from behind, it spread further and further, and finally reached the palace. The Empress Dowager personally sent a female official to the Mu family to reprimand Mu Yan. Her reputation plummeted and she became the topic of conversation for everyone.
When she was at the bottom of the abyss, Mo Xingchen showed her a little concern, which made her think that he was a ray of light in her life. Unexpectedly, he was a death warrant.
In this life, I will let you see with my own eyes how miserable your end will be.
"Well, since you are so unrepentant and refuse to admit it, then I can only find the evidence and convince you."
Xi Chen hummed softly, took out a compass from his arms, looked at it in his hand for a moment, and walked straight out of the yard. Old Madam Mu hurriedly got up and followed him, and everyone followed him out.
A group of people marched through the garden and arrived at Qiyun Pavilion.
"Isn't this my elder sister's yard?" Mu Wan's eyes showed surprise.
"I wonder if this courtyard is the residence of this girl?" Xi Chen asked, pointing at Mu Yan's Qiyun Pavilion.
"So what? Are you saying that the witchcraft stuff is hidden in this yard?" Mu Yan's eyes were calm and he answered in a low voice.
It seems that this group of people have really put in a lot of effort for me. Xi Chen has never been to the Mu family, but he is so familiar with it and can even find his own yard accurately. What kind of benefits did the other party give him?
Xi Chen's eyes were firm, "That's right! I will never make a mistake."
"Whether it is or not, Miss can just have someone search it. If it is not, Miss can be cleared of all charges." Liu Wenmei spoke hurriedly. She had carefully planned this for so long and could not wait to see what would happen to her.
"What if I say no? He wants to search my yard just based on this one sentence without any evidence?" Mu Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, and his whole body was wrapped in coldness.
But the more this happens, the more guilty one feels.
Mu Wan secretly gave Mu Ning a look. Her movements were quick, but Mu Yan still caught it.
Mu Ning understood immediately, there was a hint of thorn in his words. She had not forgotten the grudge of that day, so when would he step on her if not now?
"Could it be that Master Xichen, such a highly respected person, would wrongly accuse you? Moreover, this is Master Xichen's first time to come to the Mu family. How could he know your address? Is it a coincidence?"
Mu Yan smiled slightly, "Doesn't your face hurt anymore? You speak quite fluently."
"you!"
This sentence made Mu Ning's face stiff and red.
Thinking of the day when Mu Yan slapped her in public, she felt a burning pain on her face. Mu Yan just loved to poke people in the heart, which made her instantly furious.
"Stop wasting time with your words. Sister, if you say you want me to hit you, then you're going to hit me. There's nothing a vicious person like you can't do. Why don't you get out of the way?"
She felt that the stronger Mu Yan acted, the more guilty she must have been. She must have done something shameful, and if it was discovered, she would cry. Thinking of this, she instantly felt a lot better.
"What Ning said is right. Master Xichen is a man of high moral character and respect. He will not easily wrongly accuse someone. Yan, please get out of the way."
Madam Mu slammed the dragon-headed stick in her hand to the ground, and the maid behind her immediately prepared to rush into the yard.
"Wait!"
Mu Yan scolded.
"I am the eldest daughter of the Mu family, and the granddaughter of the loyal and brave marquis of the current dynasty. How can my boudoir be searched by others at the word of others? If I find anything, I will never say anything. What if I find nothing?"
"If we can't find it, we'll do whatever the donor says."
Xi Chen was not to be outdone.
"Well, if you can't find it, then it means that you are not a high-ranking monk, but a fraud who has taken advantage of the world to gain fame. People like you should get out of our Mu Mansion."
Mu Yan's face was extremely cold, and he spoke every word seriously.
Xi Chen was nearly frozen by the chill emitted by the other party, and he quickly calmed his mind.
"it is good!"
"Then search."
The woman's eyes were bright, and she looked dignified. The breeze blew up her bright red dress, and the strands of hair on her forehead swayed gently. Although her face could not be seen clearly because of the veil, she looked bright and arrogant, like a peony that appeared for a moment.
Liu Wenmei was stunned for a moment. She seemed to see another person in Mu Yan, the woman that Mu Jun would always keep in his heart. In an instant, a strong jealousy burned her.
Mu Wan also clenched her hands. Only today did she realize how stunning her elder sister was. Fortunately, Mu Yan's face was disfigured by the bandits, otherwise she would never have had a chance to make a name for herself. She must not give Mu Yan a chance to turn things around and let her stay in the mud forever.
After a while, Madam Tian, who was beside Madam Mu, walked up to her and said, "Madam, we didn't find anything related to witchcraft in the eldest lady's yard."
Xi Chen was stunned. How could this be possible? The current situation was different from what they had agreed upon before. Was his lifelong reputation going to be ruined?
"How is that possible? You servants must have been lazy and didn't search properly."
Mu Ning roared indignantly, but she didn't notice that Nanny Tian's expression changed slightly. Nanny Tian had been with Old Madam Mu for decades, and even the two masters of the Mu family treated her with courtesy on weekdays. But she was putting on some airs.
"Fourth Miss, I have led the servants to search the area several times, but we have found nothing related to witchcraft."
Liu Wenmei was also suddenly thrown into disarray, and she was instantly confused. Qingxiu swore to her last night that she had put the box of things under the little bitch's bed. Could it be that she was pretending to obey her?
Qingxiu saw Liu's face full of gloom, and fear gradually rose in her heart. She had clearly put the things there, how could they be gone? If the eldest lady was safe and sound, with Liu's character, she would definitely not let her go. She was very anxious now, and hurried forward to kowtow to Madam Mu.
"Madam, I have something important to report."
"Why do you have to report it now? Can't you see that something big is happening now?" Old Madam Mu had a gloomy face and looked impatient. Why was a maid running out at this time?
"It's about the eldest lady."
Hearing this, Madam Mu raised her eyes and looked at her, motioning her to continue.
