Chapter 213: The whole city is shocked
Hu Xiner quickly pulled her husband away, otherwise the two would start fighting again.
After returning home, she repaired and cleaned the inkstone according to the methods in the book, and personally delivered it to Old Man Dou.
Old man Dou looked at the inkstone that was as clean as new and burst into tears.
He was very grateful to Hu Xin'er and even wanted to give her the medical skills that his graduates had learned.
Hu Xin'er said quickly, "You're welcome. Our comings and goings are a cycle of cause and effect. This can be considered a chance encounter..."
Old man Dou wiped his tears and said, "Girl, you don't have to be polite to me. If you don't accept it, maybe one day I will die in this little house and follow my deceased wife!"
He insisted on giving it away, thinking that if he didn't give the medical book away, it would just gather dust in the house.
Hu Xiner looked at the small house on the mountain. Although it was quiet and sparsely populated, it was also very remote and lonely.
How could she just sit back and watch an elderly man like Old Man Dou, who lived alone and had done her a favor?
If one day he passed away and no one took care of him, she would feel guilty.
After much deliberation, she said seriously, "I believe our meeting was destined, perhaps also due to your wife's guidance. If Master doesn't mind, I'd like to be your goddaughter!"
She felt a little nervous as soon as she finished speaking. She knew that this was a bit offensive, but she really couldn't think of any other way to help Old Man Dou.
Both the master and the disciple are noble and stubborn. If money is given directly as a gift, they will definitely not accept it.
Unexpectedly, Old Man Dou agreed to her proposal with tears in his eyes.
Hu Xiner returned home dizzy.
Mu Qing and Lu's mother were sitting together chatting about something. Seeing this, they gathered around and asked, "Xin'er, how did you get hurt?"
Hu Xin'er touched her head and explained the whole story: "I kowtowed to my godfather three times just now. Maybe that was when my forehead was bruised."
She smiled a little embarrassedly.
Mother Lu said angrily, "What a silly girl."
Then he asked the servant to get some steamed eggs to apply on the young lady's forehead.
Mu Qing took her hand and sat at the table: "My lady, you came at the perfect time. We were just talking about investigating the men in black."
"It's only been a few days since you recovered, why don't you take it slow?" Hu Xiner suddenly became a little worried.
Although Mu Qing's memory has been fully restored, she is still worried that Mu Qing will be stimulated in the process of searching for clues.
Hu Xiner never wanted to experience the experience of watching him lying on the bed like a vegetable again.
But Mu Qing patted her hand to comfort her: "As long as the truth of what happened back then is not revealed, the Lu family and my aunt will live in fear."
Mother Lu hesitated to speak.
Hu Xiner knew that her mother had become more worried since she regained all her memories. She always felt sorry for them and was no longer as outspoken as before.
She said coquettishly: "Mom, just say what you want to say. You are the backbone of our family. You are not allowed to hide good ideas secretly."
Mother Lu couldn't help but laugh at her, and then asked hesitantly: "Mu'er, you said that you investigated the case for the Lu family... Don't you hate your father?"
Mother Lu felt extremely complicated.
If Mu Qing expressed hatred, Mother Lu would immediately be overwhelmed by overwhelming guilt.
But Mu Qing didn't hate her, and she felt uncomfortable and awkward.
Mu Qing said bluntly: "Of course I hate it!"
Mother Lu looked gloomy: "I am sorry for you..."
"No, mother, you have done very well!" Mu Qing paused, as if he felt a little embarrassed to say such words.
But he couldn't just watch his mother immersed in this atmosphere of sadness and regret.
He continued, "I hate him, but his death was strange. After his sudden death, assassins came to the Lu family. Lu Yunjue was innocent. He died for me. My aunt was also innocent. She never married in order to protect me..."
Father Lu and the Lu family are two completely different entities.
Father Lu hated him, despised him, and wanted to kill him.
But every member of the Lu family used their bloody hands to lift him out of this sea of suffering!
They are all ordinary people, of course they have their own selfish desires and cannot be perfect.
But love and care cannot be faked.
Whether it was Lu's mother being trapped in the boudoir, Jiang Yao's half-life of wandering, or Lu Yunjue's call of "brother" before his death.
This is enough for Mu Qing to protect them as real family members!
From this sentence, we can see that although Mu Qing is not good at speaking, he has an extremely kind heart.
Mother Lu couldn't help crying again: "Mu'er, you are such a good child, but you are disliked because of your appearance! It's all my fault. When I was pregnant, I shouldn't have eaten ugly duck food."
Ugly duckweed is a wild vegetable. When Lu's mother was pregnant, Lu's father specially hired someone to go to the suburbs of Beijing to pick it.
At that time, he still had some tenderness towards Lu's mother. Who could have imagined that the child's face would change as soon as he was born?
Mother Lu couldn't help but immerse herself in her own thoughts again. Her feelings towards Father Lu were actually a mixture of love and hate, otherwise she would not have driven herself crazy.
But, she wanted to avenge her son more.
Thinking of Lu Yunjue's death, her eyes gradually became firm: "Mu'er, if you are not afraid of danger, then go ahead and do it!"
After much thought, the person most likely to harm Lu's father is the prince.
If Mu Qing wanted to get close to him, he had to go to the court.
After learning of his decision, Hu Xin'er became a little worried: "Officials are full of infighting, and the Crown Prince's influence is immense. If you fight alone, won't you be at a disadvantage?"
Mu Qing seemed to be well prepared: "Xin'er, trust your husband."
Hu Xin'er was still a little worried: "Do you want me to ask the eldest princess for an introduction?"
Mother Lu also hesitated and said, "Your father... still has some students and old friends, but I haven't been in touch with them for many years. If you need..."
Mu Qing refused them all: "No need, I want to rely on my own abilities."
After all, Mother Lu had lived in the capital for many years. She frowned and thought of the key point: "Do you have a plan?"
"Lu Yunjue has been indifferent to fame and fortune for so many years, so his sudden entry into the court must have a story." Mu Qing nodded and explained, "This is a high-profile attempt to win over people's hearts. I'm afraid it will alert the Crown Prince and arouse his suspicion."
Indeed, if it was really the prince who sent someone to assassinate the prime minister, but was not discovered by the emperor.
So either the emperor is shielding the prince, or the prince's scheming and power have reached a terrifying level.
Mu Qing's plan was to create the illusion that he had just recovered from a serious illness, felt that life was short, and decided to make a career to strengthen the Continental Government.
At the same time, he had to use the image of a noble and upright young man to confuse the prince, so he could not form cliques.
After the explanation, he asked Hu Xiner to help prepare several large pieces of paper as tall as a person, and write a letter entitled "On the Current Dynasty" on them.
Because ordinary people could not get close to the palace, he asked the imperial guard Erdong to help post it in the nearest place in the palace.
As soon as this article came out, the whole city was in an uproar!
