~ SU YUYI’S SOUL DISPERSED ~
Feeling that the time is almost up, Si Shu and Si Hua lifted the quilt and put their hands on Su Yuyi’s neck, “Miss, Miss Su pa.s.sed out and...” As the two spoke, they covered Su Yuyi’s legs with the quilt to cover the water stains on her body, which had a strange smell.
If others were to see the current appearance of the Eldest Miss of the Su family, they would probably laugh for three months without eating.
Mu Yunyao nodded, and her gaze landed on the tightly tied up Mama Qi. She walked over and squatted down, “Elder Sister Yuyi came in a hurry to this place. Eldest Aunt has always pampered her so she won’t come into contact with too many dirty tricks. But you’re different. You follow Eldest Aunt for a long time. It’s all your idea, isn’t it, to lead my mother back to the side room and set it on fire?”
Mama Qi shook her head crazily, trembling with fear. “Ugh …”
“There is also the powder that stuns my mother and Si Qi, which Eldest Aunt told you to bring it, didn’t she? As for what she wanted to do, let me think about it ... Eldest Aunt had people buy over ten hooligans. Those people are born crafty and commit all sorts of crimes … Hm, Eldest Aunt should have told you two plans. First, If my mother and I will always be together, you should find a chance to use the medicinal powder on us and then throw us into the hands of those hooligans. I’m afraid that my mother and I will suffer a fate worse than death. Second, you should separate my mother and me so that you can take care of us one by one ... Just like this fire. An unexpected fire would could cause people to not even have a trace of their bones left. It’s really a vicious mind.”
The expression in Mama Qi’s eyes when she looked at Mu Yunyao grew more and more alarmed.
Mu Yunyao looked at Si Hua and motioned for her to move the cloth away that had been stuffed in Mama Qi’s mouth.
Mama Qi subconsciously opened her mouth to scream, but she was slashed at her throat with a hand knife by Si Shu.
The intense pain made Mama Qi immediately bend down, unable to make a single sound.
“Mama Qi, you’ve been by Eldest Aunt’s side for a long time, so you should be a smart person. Do you think I’ll give you the chance to yell out?”
Mama Qi kept bending down to beg for mercy to Mu Yunyao. Her face was covered in cold sweat and tears, making her look especially miserable. If she had known earlier that Mu Yunyao was such a vicious and wicked person, she would have thought twice about it. Terrifying, too terrifying!
“Answer my question honestly, and I’ll spare your life. How about it?”
Mama Qi quickly nodded her head. Mu Yunyao was an evil spirit. She could even harm Eldest Miss so she wouldn’t hold back on the life of a servant. As long as she could survive, she would agree to anything Mu Yunyao asked her to do.
“Was my guess right?”
Mama Qi nodded her head. Although there was some discrepancy, Eldest Madam was like what Mu Yunyao had guessed and wanted to deal with Su Qing and her in this way.
Mu Yunyao sneered, and the aura around her body became even colder, “Other than Eldest Aunt hiring those hooligans, did she also let any of the two inner sect experts to make a move?”
Inner sect expert? Mama Qi was taken aback for a moment and quickly shook her head. Most experts are not willing to be involved in the Imperial Court. If they really were here, why would they take such a huge risk and deal with Mu Yunyao after a few twists and turns?
If it wasn’t the Eldest Madam, then who was the culprit?
Mu Yunyao’s eyebrows twitched. The sky had already begun to light up, so she couldn’t afford to delay any longer. “Si Shu, Si Hua, let’s do it.”
“Yes, Miss.” Si Shu walked forward and knocked out Mama Qi, then pulled her to the bedside, making the appearance that she had crushed Su Yuyi’s arm and quickly left with Mu Yunyao.
When Mu Yunyao returned to the room, Su Qing was still deeply asleep. She sat on the side for a while to guard. After hearing Si Qin’s reminder, she then went to bathe and change her clothes.
After staying up all night, the anger in her heart also radiated. Soaking in the warm water, Mu Yunyao felt waves of drowsiness invade her, causing her to yawn uncontrollably. Her eyes were filled with a watery light as she forced herself to stand up and wear good clothes. She slightly stretched her arms and felt her entire body ache.
Si Qi stepped forward to support her, “Miss, are you alright?”
“Nothing’s wrong, I think...” Mu Yunyao thought back to what her mother had said. She had said that Yue w.a.n.g had injured himself in order to save her. Now she wanted to visit him, but she didn’t know where he lived...
“Si Qin, remember carefully what that monk who came to inform you of my accident looks like. Then, draw a portrait and look for the monk in charge of of Baohua Temple to confirm it.” Although she felt that she couldn’t find him, she still had to try her luck.
“Yes, this servant will go down now to draw him.”
“Good, and ... Forget it, I’ll go and look for it myself. “
Si Shu probed from the side, “Miss, do you want to inquire about Fourth Master’s residence?”
Mu Yunyao paused for a moment before nodding, “Do you know where he is?”
“In the easternmost side room of Baohua Temple, those rooms are usually not open to pilgrims. Grand Princess Yi De lives there as well, so Fourth Master lives in the courtyard next door.”
Mu Yunyao slightly bit her lower lip. She unconsciously extended her hand to wipe the hair by her ear. “I understand. When Mother wakes up in a bit, I’ll say a word to her and then go visit Fourth Master.”
Before Su Qing woke up, there was already a ruckus outside.
Mu Yunyao slightly raised her eyes, a faint smile on her lips. After a while, Su Qingwu arrived and knocked on the door.
“Miss?” Si Shu was a bit worried. They didn’t kill Su Yuyi and Mama Qi to silence them, and now the two of them must have told Su Qingwu about what had happened. They might have come to cause trouble.
“Mother is still sleeping, and it’s not good to be disturbed. I’ll go out and see him.”
When Mu Yunyao walked out of the room, she saw Su Qingwu, with a cold complexion, standing at the door. He wore a light blue robe, his posture was straight, and his face was handsome, but the aura around him was so cold, with an indescribable pressure.
“Greetings, Cousin.”
Su Qingwu seriously sized up Mu Yunyao, not letting go of even the slightest emotion from her face. However, other than a faint smile, he couldn’t see anything else. “Yuyi’s hand is broken. She was frightened, and she’s even sick now.”
Mu Yunyao raised her eyes in surprise, “Wasn’t it fine yesterday? How can he break his hand after only one night?”
Su Qingwu frowned tightly, her eyes filled with shock and bewilderment. “She said that it was you who broke her hand, and you threatened to kill her too?”
Mu Yunyao blinked, her expression seeming to have some lingering fear. “I haven’t come out rom the room for the entire night and have concentrated on taking care of my mother. Did Cousin just get so scared that she was confused. Is she just grabbed me so casually?”
“Even Mama Qi said it was you!”
“Then I said it was her. She didn’t take good care of Elder Sister Yuyi and was afraid that Eldest Aunt would scold her when they go back, so she came up with some rotten ideas like this!”
Su Qingwu looked at Mu Yunyao for a long time, but he could not identify anything. “Mu Yunyao, you are also a member of the Su family, so you should understand that the truth that everyone is prosperous and everyone is damaged.”
“Cousin is joking. My surname is Mu, not Su!” She has never regarded herself as Su’s family member!
