Chapter 772 - 773 - The Su"er"s Deceit"Su"er is still just a kid, I can"t help but speak a little without thinking!" After hearing that, Mu Jin muttered to himself, but after that he said with determination.
He believed that Wei Yuanwei would never do something that would let him down, and he would definitely not suspect Wei Yuanwei because of some random reason.
Furthermore, with Wei Yuanwei being so outstanding and beautiful, it would be difficult to find a suitor in the underworld clans. Maybe it was because of this that Su"er had misunderstood him!
If Wei Yuanwei did not have him in her heart, how would she have been able to escape from the underworld clan with Su"er?
The fact that the a.s.sa.s.sin had barged into the palace to a.s.sa.s.sinate the emperor could be said to be shocking, especially in the morning a.s.sembly. Mu Zhi was furious, all the officials of different sizes stood there trembling, the cold sweat on their foreheads could not help but seep out, all the way until the a.s.sembly was over, everyone"s clothes were drenched in sweat.
Only after the furious Mu Zhi returned to the palace did his expression calm down.
Last night"s a.s.sa.s.sination attempt had been both beneficial and disadvantageous to him. The advantageous side was that he could use the a.s.sa.s.sin incident to directly pin the t.i.tle of a.s.sa.s.sin on some of the delicacies that the Prince An and Prince Lu had planted in the palace, and deal with it properly and justly.
On the other hand, the one who cheated was the one who tried to a.s.sa.s.sinate him.
If his target had not been exposed too early, he probably would not have been able to see the sun today.
A hint of viciousness flashed past Mu Zhi"s eyes. Who would be the one to be a.s.sa.s.sinated?
Your Majesty, your subordinate has already investigated, it"s impossible for Prince An and Prince Lu to a.s.sa.s.sinate your majesty in the imperial palace. Furthermore, we don"t know the origins of these people, and the hidden weapons they use are things our Southern Mountain State doesn"t have.
Night Walker knelt in front of Mu Zhi and reported respectfully with his head lowered.
His kung fu skills were high, his training was well-trained, and his ident.i.ty was mysterious. All of this seemed to be within the boundaries of the Glow Water Pavilion.
As Mu Zhi heard Ye Wen"s report, the ruthlessness in his eyes grew even stronger, like a furious lion"s eyes.
He repeatedly probed Mu Jin, and Mu Jin was worried that he would expose his ident.i.ty, so he had a reason to kill him.
However, it was impossible for Mu Jin, who was extremely skilled in strategy and even military tactics, to kill him in the Imperial Palace.
Therefore, whether it was done by Mu Jin or not, this matter had to be investigated.
"You can leave now. Take advantage of this a.s.sa.s.sination to take care of all the spies Prince An and Prince Lu planted in my side. If possible, it would be best to get something out of them!" Mu Zhi clenched his fists, and spoke as though he was trying his best to endure.
"Yes sir!" With that, Nightfall left the palace.
"Fu Lu, we want to hold a feast at Grand Dominance Tower and invite Young Master of Qing Ming Waterside Pavilion!" In a blink of an eye, Mu Zhi had already made his plans. The dense anger in her eyes shot out like a ball of fire from her eyes, as if it could instantly burn the tables and chairs in front of his into ashes.
He needed to figure out what happened to the a.s.sa.s.sins last night. He only wanted to make a deal with Mu Jin to use Mu Jin to get rid of the Prince An and Prince Lu and take back the military power from them.
"Young Lord, Young Lord …" Mu Jin, who was busy handling matters with his head lowered, suddenly heard Su"er"s voice from outside the door.
Mu Jin looked at the two rows of people in front of him, and slowly closed the doc.u.ments they had brought up, as he coldly said: "This young master"s main goal is to obtain accurate and accurate information, not this completely baseless and illusory information. Before this information is confirmed, all of you should stop appearing in front of this young master!"
Finished speaking, Mu Jin gently waved his hand, and the two rows of people standing in front of him quickly disappeared. In the huge study, only Mu Jin remained.
After Han Yue sensed the commotion inside, he opened the door and allowed Su"er to enter.
Su"er jumped in front of Mu Jin with a cloth wrapped item in his hand that was still steaming.
"Young master, Young master, I will make a withering rice mule with my mother, quickly come and have a taste!" With that said, the little Su"er tiptoed and placed something that was wrapped in leaves onto Mu Jin"s desk while radiating hot air.
When Mu Jin approached the Su"er, he closed all the doc.u.ments on the table, and indifferently glanced at the glutinous rice on the table: "What"s inside that?"
"Mi!" Su"er answered naively.
Mu Jin reached out and lifted up the leaf that was wrapped around his, causing the fragrant rice to flow straight into his nose. Indeed, other than the rice, it was only rice.
"I keep having the feeling that there are some other things in there, like some medicine!" There must be a problem if the Su"er was giving him something to eat for no reason.
"No, how could Su"er dare? Other than rice, there was only rice!" The Su"er pointed with her finger as she spoke: "My mother told me to send it over anyways, so I sent it too. Then the Su"er will be leaving!"
Su"er stuck out her tongue and licked the rice grains on her finger. Then, she walked away without turning her head back.
Mu Jin wanted to stop Su"er, but Su"er had already skipped out the door.
Mu Jin helplessly shook his head, looking at the small figure of Su"er, he revealed a happy smile.
Thinking that the glutinous rice was personally made by Wei Yuanwei herself, Mu Jin couldn"t wait to try out Wei Yuanwei"s cooking skills. It was already afternoon, and he was a little hungry.
He took a light bite and felt his teeth stick together.
Although it was not very tasty, he still ate very delicious food.
Not long after, all the glutinous rice that Su"er sent over was eaten up by Mu Jin.
The innocent and pure little Su"er revealed a mischievous smile after she left the study room.
Feeling extremely joyful, he clasped his hands behind his back and began to pace, happily humming a song.
Then, a joyous voice rang out clearly in Su"er"s ears. Before Su"er could react to what was going on, a light powder drifted past in front of him.
Following which, a small face the size of a palm appeared in front of Su"er in an instant, and a bell-like voice came out of her mouth: "Ah, where did this little kid come from? "So cute!"
As she said that, she extended her soft and small hands to pinch Su"er"s face.
Su"er frowned, then quickly retreated, her face filled with unhappiness: "This G.o.ddess hates it when people touch my face!"
On the contrary, she wanted to make fun of this cute, soft Su"er who was like a ball of glutinous rice: "Little boy be good, big sister has some candy in her hands. Tell me big sister what your name is, big sister will give this candy to you to eat!"
Compared to sugar, Su"er felt that valuable jewelry was more alluring.
Her gaze swept across the pink clothed young girl"s body, discovering that there was nothing valuable on her, but the jade necklace on her neck had caught Su"er"s attention.
