Since Jiang Ying suggested that Mu Zijin pretend to faint, it is impossible for him to be fooled by Mu Wanbai.
He ignored Mu Wanbai and only looked at Mu Chong and Mu Yunyuan, "Lord Mu, Lord Mu, although Miss Mu is no longer in danger of death, her body is still weak. I'm afraid she won't wake up for three to five days."
When Mu Chong heard this, a barely perceptible look of disgust flashed in his eyes.
Mu Yunyuan was fine, gentle and refined, with a mild temper: "Okay, I'm glad he's okay. Thank you Miss Jiang for your kindness and for saving my life."
Then he turned around and asked He, confused, "Madam, why did Zijin fall into the water?"
Mu Wanbai was obviously a little nervous when asked this question, while the other people in the Mu Mansion were numb.
It’s hard to describe Jiang Ying in a few words.
It seems that Mu Yunyuan is really a hands-off boss!
In this case, even if Mu Wanbai could return home, he would still be in great danger.
So, before He Shi could find an excuse to cover up, Jiang Ying took the initiative to tell the truth, "Master Mu, you may not know, but when I was treating your daughter, I found bruises on her waist and shoulders. So I suspect that your daughter didn't fall into the lake accidentally, but someone deliberately harmed her!"
"What! How could such a thing happen in broad daylight?" Mu Yunyuan's shock was evident in his expression.
He was so angry that the veins on his forehead bulged.
Jiang Ying was certain that Mu Yunyuan might not really know what his own backyard looked like, and was completely kept in the dark by He's tricks.
Very good, I absolutely cannot go back to Mu Zijin’s house!
Otherwise, you won’t even know how you were killed silently again!
"Yes, Lord Mu." Jiang Ying nodded, "In my opinion, it is not appropriate to bring Miss Mu back now, to prevent the murderer from killing her and silencing her.
"Why not find a place outside to temporarily house Miss Mu? After three or five days, when she wakes up, Lord Mu can ask her in person."
"This..." If the Mu family doesn't go back to the Mu family, where will they go?
She's still an unmarried girl!
Mu Yunyuan couldn't make up his mind at all. Madam Mu was getting impatient and said hurriedly, "Miss Jiang, what are you talking about? Isn't that a bit of an exaggeration? Maybe one of the servants got angry and was careless when serving?
"In short, our scholar's mansion has always been peaceful and stable. The things you described have never happened before. There's really no need to start a war over a concubine's daughter!"
What a joke! What if she wakes up and is no longer under my nose and says something nonsense?
If I keep it in the house, even if I don't deal with it in time, I can guarantee that she will just say that it was her carelessness!
He was unwilling to take risks, and Mu Yunyuan was a man without his own opinion and afraid of his wife.
Seeing this, Mu Chong angrily swung his sleeves and said, "Miss Jiang, you are a kind-hearted doctor and helped us save Zijin's life. We in the Mu family should thank you, but it is inappropriate to make such unfounded remarks. You even insist on finding another place for Zijin to stay. What's going on? Are you trying to use Zijin to bring us to court?"
A concubine's daughter! She's dead, so what?
If Mu Chong hadn't been considering Yan Zhuo's face, he would have turned around and left long ago, thinking out of sight, out of mind.
Jiang Ying shook his head, knowing that this would happen.
To put it bluntly, even a judge cannot judge family affairs, so how much can she interfere?
He subconsciously glanced in the direction of Jiang Yuanchen. Apart from anything else, if Mu Zijin really died because of his second brother, his second brother would probably feel extremely guilty!
She didn't want to see that outcome.
Jiang Yuanchen stood at the back with a serious expression, undoubtedly in trouble.
If he had known earlier, shouldn't he have been more reckless? But people only have one life!
He had experienced it, so he felt that fame and reputation were nothing compared to living.
What does it have to do with you what outsiders think of you?
But Mu Zijin had never experienced that, and she was a woman. Once she was excluded by her family, her path would be very difficult.
Just as the brother and sister were caught up in their own entanglements, Yan Zhuo silently stood up and said, "Master Mu, you are wrong. Ying'er is just speaking the truth and has no intention of distorting the facts, right?
"If Lord Mu thinks murder is both impossible and simple, I will immediately send someone to Shuntian Prefecture. The prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, Zheng Yao, is an expert in solving cases and will surely be able to help you uncover the truth and restore peace to your residence. How do you do that?"
Mu Chong: ...
Not a big deal!
Is it necessary to make such a shameful thing known to the whole city?
She glared at the housekeeper He, who was not in a favorable position. "As the mistress of the Mu Mansion, it's your fault for making such a joke!"
“Yes, yes, yes…” He didn’t dare to contradict Old Master Mu and admitted her mistake obediently.
Mu Chong took advantage of the situation and said, "Why don't you just do as Miss Jiang said and find another courtyard to temporarily house Zijin? Once we figure out which servant was responsible for assaulting Zijin, and we've dealt with her properly and she's recovered, it won't be too late to bring her back to the mansion."
Nonsense, he didn't hear Prince Yan's "Ying'er" wrongly.
This shows that he is determined to stand up for her!
The Mu family's power is no longer what it was when he was still in the court. Not to mention going against Prince Yan, they can't even force their way into the Duke's Mansion.
Therefore, you have to retreat even if you don’t want to.
Hearing this, Jiang Yuanchen breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward to bow. "Old Master Mu is truly fair. He is indeed a minister who was once highly regarded by the late emperor."
In this sentence, the word "once" is very artistic.
However, Mu Chong was so complacent that he didn't hear it at all. Instead, he smiled and waved his hand, "No, no, I can't compare to you young people."
Jiang Ying & Yan Zhuo: ...
The two of them looked at each other coincidentally, and then immediately jumped away!
