Wei Xu walked up to Mu Yazhi and asked with concern, "Ya'er, what happened to your face?"
Mu Yazhi nodded and explained, "I was framed and almost disfigured before, but it's fine now and I'm slowly recovering."
Upon hearing this, Wei Xu's face immediately darkened, and he asked, "Have you caught the murderer?"
Mu Yazhi said helplessly, "There is no evidence. Maybe I really did something wrong and upset someone. Anyway, I'm almost over now. I'll just be more careful in the future and not cause trouble."
Mu Yazhi looked aggrieved, and her words were enough to hint at Wei Xu's feelings.
However, Mu Yazhi clearly sensed that something was wrong with Wei Xu. If it were any other day, he would have been anxious to check on her after hearing what she said, and then he would have gone to confront Mu Chenshuang.
It seems that Mu Chenshuang really did say something to Wei Xu. I wonder what Mu Chenshuang's purpose is. Wei Xu was so arrogant in front of her before, and even humiliated her, yet she actually accepted Wei Xu as her disciple.
Just now, Wei Xu was secretly seen by a maid in the outer courtyard while he was taking a master in the inner courtyard of Tingzhu. The maid immediately went to tell Lu Wei.
Therefore, Mu Yazhi came here to test Wei Xu. Now that Mu Chenshuang is being watched over, they can't find any opportunity to frame her. If Wei Xu can get close to Mu Chenshuang, wouldn't that be a perfect opportunity for them?
"Did Mu Chenshuang frame you?"
Wei Xu didn't seem particularly emotional when he said this.
Mu Yazhi didn't continue on that topic and changed the subject, saying, "Young Master, are you feeling better?"
Wei Xu said, "I've been given a second chance at life."
Mu Yazhi suddenly apologized, "I'm sorry, Your Highness. My face was in a lot of pain before, and I was receiving treatment at the manor. I was terrified that I would be disfigured and unable to face you again, so I didn't pay attention to your injury. When I learned that Your Highness had been assassinated, I heard that Doctor Li had cured you. I was thinking of going to the Prince of Wei's manor to see you in a couple of days. But now that I see that Your Highness is in good condition, I'm relieved."
As Wei Xu listened to Mu Yazhi's emotional explanation, his heart softened instantly. He found it hard to believe that someone as innocent and kind as Ya'er could be a scheming woman.
For a moment, he forgot Mu Chenshuang's words and reached out to hug Mu Yazhi.
This scene was witnessed by Qiye, who was hiding in the shadows.
“Miss, you were right. Young Master Wei was completely fooled by that woman’s few words. I think that kid is a block of wood. I don’t know what you were thinking, taking him as your disciple and expecting me to teach him. I’m not as easy to talk to as you.”
With a disdainful look, Qi Ye reached for an apple on the table, took a bite, and sat down on the chair with one foot on it.
Mu Chenshuang held the brush and wrote methodically, saying only one sentence, "Isn't this just right?"
Mu Yazhi and Lu Wei will definitely use Wei Xu. It's just a matter of how far they will go to use Wei Xu to frame her. She doesn't even mind helping them out and creating an opportunity for them to think they can severely damage her.
This is a perfect opportunity to let Wei Xu see Mu Yazhi's true colors.
Qi Ye looked at Mu Chen Shuang with confusion and asked, "What opportunity?"
Linglong was grinding ink for Mu Chenshuang when she heard Qi Ye's words and couldn't help but scoff, "With your brain, you definitely can't understand what Miss is saying."
Every time she saw him sitting improperly in front of the young lady, with no manners whatsoever, she felt angry, but since the young lady tolerated his behavior, she couldn't say anything.
Qi Ye retorted without any politeness, "You talk as if you know everything. Come on, tell me properly what Miss's purpose is."
