The first imperial favorite

"It seems that we can't stand by and watch." Since he had some friendship with the Mu family in this life, and now he just happened to encounter such a thing happening in the Mu family, he had to do something.

"Brother Chen, we don't have any clues now, what should we do?" Gong Zeyu asked.

"You take Beibei to guard outside, and let me stay in the room alone for a while." Gong Haochen said.

Gong Zeyu nodded and went out.

After the door was closed, Gong Haochen sat down on the bed cross-legged, and began to think about how the Mu family's affairs developed in his mind, he had to find some clues.

In his mind, he tried hard to recall all the things he had experienced and heard in the imperial city.

After Gong Zeyu came out of the room with Beibei, he stood at the door.

Gong Xiaobei looked up at Gong Zeyu and said, "Uncle Yu, why are you ignoring me now?"

Gong Zeyu glanced at him indifferently, but did not respond.

Gong Xiaobei couldn't figure it out. In the past six months, he found that Gong Zeyu, who used to like to laugh, suddenly stopped laughing. After being in the village for so long, Gong Zeyu was silent most of the time, occasionally meeting enthusiastic villagers to say hello. , Gong Zeyu will respond.

He also asked Xiaopa this question, and Xiaopa said that Uncle Yu might be thinking about something, so he forgot to talk to him.

Xiao Dae really thought he was a child, and even fooled him like this.

Seeing that Gong Zeyu ignored him, Gong Xiaobei just sat aside and thought about things.

I don't know how long it took, Gong Xiaobei felt her stomach growling, she couldn't help but looked up at Gong Zeyu, and said aggrievedly, "Uncle Yu, I'm hungry."

Gong Zeyu went down to buy him something to eat without saying a word, while Gong Xiaobei held his chin and looked at the direction where Gong Zeyu left, thoughtfully.

When Gong Zeyu came back again, he was holding a chicken leg wrapped in oil paper and two meat buns in his hand.

Gong Xiaobei immediately reached out to take it, sat down on the ground and ate without any hesitation.

At this moment, the door of the room opened suddenly, and Gong Haochen came out of the room with a solemn face. Seeing this, Gong Zeyu immediately walked over and asked, "Brother Chen, what happened?"

"Go, go to Mu's house!" Gong Haochen said.

"The Mu family? Isn't the Mu family empty now?" Gong Zeyu was puzzled.

Gong Haochen didn't answer, he picked up Gong Xiaobei, left the inn in a hurry, and went to Mu's house.

This time they didn't go to the main entrance, but came to the wall next to Mu's house. Seeing no one around, they jumped in from outside the wall.

After the three of them went in, they saw that the Mu family was not empty, and there was a housekeeper cleaning the yard, but none of the servants were there.

Gong Haochen walked directly towards the butler, the butler's face changed slightly when he saw this, and he immediately shouted: "Who are you, why did you break into our Mu's house!"

When Gong Haochen approached, the housekeeper seemed to recognize Gong Haochen, and said: "Master Chen?"

"Housekeeper, thank you for remembering me, tell me where is the cellar of the Mu family?" Gong Haochen asked anxiously.

"The cellar? Why do you want to go to the cellar?" The butler didn't quite understand.

"Do you want to save the Mu family?" Gong Haochen asked.

The housekeeper immediately said: "This old slave has been thinking about how to ask the emperor for help every day for the past three months, but the emperor is powerless."

"It's useless to find anyone now, take me to the cellar, hurry up!" Gong Haochen urged.

The butler didn't know why Gong Haochen was going to the cellar, but Gong Haochen was the first one to come to the Mu family in three months and said he wanted to help the Mu family, so he didn't delay any longer and took Gong Haochen to the cellar. went.

On the way past, Gong Haochen asked: "Did your young master always go to the cellar three months ago?"

The housekeeper thought about it for a while, and immediately said: "Yes, Young Master Chen, how do you know?"

"If I'm not mistaken, there are people in the cellar." Gong Haochen said solemnly.

"What!" The housekeeper suddenly remembered that something was missing from the kitchen in the past three months, and his expression changed slightly, "No wonder things are always missing from the kitchen recently. Could it be that person went to the kitchen to steal it!"

As soon as Gong Haochen heard it, he knew that his memory was correct, and that the sudden bad luck for the Mu family began with the person Mu Zifeizang.

They followed the housekeeper to the cellar quickly, and before the housekeeper could get the key, they saw Gong Haochen kick the door open, and then a figure wanted to rush out of the cellar, and was followed by Gong Haochen. Zeyu stopped him.

"Let go of me! You let me go!"

When Gong Zeyu heard it was a woman's voice, he immediately let go of his hands and took a few steps back.

Just as the woman was about to run when she was free, she was tripped by Gong Xiaobei's calmly stretched out short legs.

Gong Haochen: ...

He shook his head, walked over, saw the woman getting up to leave, Gong Haochen said: "Because of such a big incident happened to you in the Mu family, you are still so calm, aren't you too heartless?"

"I, I don't know what you are talking about..." The woman lowered her head, her long hair covering her face.

The housekeeper looked at the person who ran out of the cellar in shock, but he didn't expect that there was actually someone in the cellar, and it was a woman.

How did Chen Shao know that there was someone in the cellar?The housekeeper was surprised.

"Zhong Jiahong, the left protector of Tianyin Valley, went to Linxian Island to steal the island owner's bodyguard because of the order of the valley owner, and was caught by the island owner Zhuang Wen. The thread of clothes was given to you just to make the beauties laugh, but you don't like Zhuang Wen and always want to get rid of Zhuang Wen. You know the grievances between Zhuang Wen and the Mu family, and in order to get rid of Zhuang Wen, you let Zhuang Wen learn a lesson. Trying to "encounter" the young master of the Mu family by chance, compiled the tragic life experience of an ordinary girl from a good family who was bullied by Zhuang Wen, and successfully won the sympathy of the young master of the Mu family. So I decisively decided to save you from the sea of ​​suffering, and worried that Zhuang Wen would find you, so I hid you in the cellar, but you sneaked out of Mu's house and planned to return to Tianyin Valley, but Zhuang Wen found out, Zhuang Wen sent someone to chase you, you Then I hid back to the Mu family again, and it is precisely because of this that it brought such a disaster to the Mu family."

Gong Haochen looked at Zhong Jiahong coldly and narrated calmly.

Zhong Jiahong suddenly raised her head and looked at Gong Haochen in disbelief, "You...you..."

Why does this kid know so clearly! ! !Who is he?Did Mu Zifei tell this person everything?

After the housekeeper at the side finished listening, he looked at the expression on Zhong Jiahong's face, and realized that what Gong Haochen said was true, he was furious, "It turns out that you caused the Mu family to become like this! You are really cold-blooded! I have been hiding in the cellar for the past three months, and I don't want to help the Mu family, so I just watched the Mu family suffer from this catastrophe!"

"This kid is talking nonsense, it's not like that at all!" Zhong Jiahong quibbled.

Gong Haochen sneered, "Whether it's true or not, why don't you come to Linxian Island with me and you'll know?"

"Brat, why are you meddling in your own business here! Get out!" Zhong Jiahong panicked when she heard that Gong Haochen was going to take her to Linxian Island. Haochen pushed it away, but before his hand touched Gong Haochen, he was kicked away by Gong Zeyu, "Don't touch him!"

Zhong Jiahong felt that the two people in front of her were not easy to deal with, so she turned around and was about to run, but she felt pulled by something within a few steps, and saw a rope-like light coming out of Gong Haochen's palm, tightly tied her body.

"Follow me!" Gong Haochen asked the housekeeper to find a carriage, and drove the carriage towards Linxian Island.

……

"Who is coming? Without the invitation of the island owner, you are not allowed to take half a step!" The guards at the entrance of Linxian Island saw Gong Haochen and the others approaching, and immediately stopped them.

"Go and tell the island owner that the person he wants is here." Gong Haochen pushed Zhong Jiahong out, and the guards saw that she was the female thief that the island owner had been looking for for several months.

"Quick! Go and report to the island owner!" The guard immediately said to another person, who hurried to find the island owner.

Seeing this, the butler hurried to Gong Haochen's side and asked, "Young Master Chen, is it true that as long as you give this woman to the island owner, the island owner will be able to let the old man go?"

Gong Haochen shook his head, "It's not that easy, Zhuang Wen detained the old man, just using this woman's affairs as an excuse, his real purpose is to make the Mu family completely disappear in the imperial city."

"What!!!" When the butler heard this, his legs softened immediately, "Then, why did you bring this woman here?"

"Only in this way can we meet the island owner himself and negotiate with the island owner." Gong Haochen said.

Not long after, a man in blue came towards this side supported by a group of guards. When Zhong Jiahong saw the man approaching, the blood on her face faded. She kept backing away, but was pushed by Gong Xiaobei , Jiahong rushed forward in the next second.

Gong Haochen: ...

"You bitch, you're finally back!" The man is Zhuang Wen, the owner of Linxian Island. When he saw Zhong Jiahong pushed to the ground by Gong Xiaobei, Zhuang Wen slapped him, and Zhong Jiahong instantly His face became swollen.

"Hurry up and take this bitch away!" Zhuang Wen said to the guards behind him.

"Don't! Don't! Take me away, I will die here!" Zhong Jiahong looked at Gong Haochen and kept begging.

Gong Haochen looked at Zhuang Wen indifferently, and ignored Zhong Jiahong.

Although Zhuang Wen had planned to attack the Mu family long ago, it cannot be denied that Zhuang Wen's attack on the Mu family was due to Zhong Jiahong's incident.

After Zhong Jiahong was taken away, Zhuang Wen looked at Gong Haochen, "Thank you, little brother, for sending back the person we are looking for on this island. What kind of reward do you want, little brother? The owner of this island will definitely be satisfied."

"I don't need a reward, I just want Zhuang Island Master to let someone go." Gong Haochen said.

Zhuang Wen looked at the butler behind Gong Haochen, and suddenly laughed, "So you came here for the old man of the Mu family."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhuang Wen's face suddenly turned cold, "Get lost!"

"How can Zhuang Dao let Mr. Mu go?" Gong Haochen asked.

"Oh, boy, who are you from the Mu family? You don't hesitate to fight against Zhuang Wen and me for an old man?" Zhuang Wen said grimly.

"It's not important. Island Master Zhuang still talks about your conditions, maybe I can meet them." Gong Haochen said.

Zhuang Wen burst out laughing immediately, he looked at Gong Haochen mockingly and said, "Let Mu Zifei come to me first, otherwise we won't talk about anything!"
