Su Qingwu had already made up her mind to send Su Yuyi home first, but seeing Mu Yunyao like this, she didn't dare to take the risk. She was afraid that Mu Yunyao would make a move in anger.
Su Yuyi felt that Yun Yao's words were pressing down on her, and panicked in her heart for no reason, "If I'm not going back, then I won't trouble little sister Yun Yao to take care of me. You should take care of aunt first."
"Judging from Big Brother's expression, he probably doesn't plan to bring Big Sister Yu Xiang back to the Manor first. I can go back and take care of mother without worry." After Mu Yunyao finished speaking, she turned around and went forward to support Su Qing. She then followed the Monk of the Precious Flower Temple to the newly arranged room.
When they arrived at the newly arranged room, Mu Yunyao helped Su Qing to sit down. She then turned her head and instructed the scribe at the side, "Go take a look. Where did Big Brother arrange Su Yuyi to sit?"
Su Qing hurriedly held onto Mu Yunyao's hand."Yao`er?"
Mu Yunyao raised her head with a smile on her face, but it didn't have the usual pure warmth. Instead, it emitted an indescribable baleful aura."Mom, don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
The scribe hurriedly nodded his head, got up, and walked outside.
Su Qing's leg was only slightly sprained, and it wasn't that severe. It would only take a period of time before it recovered. What was more troublesome was her throat, which was burned by the smoke. She would probably have to suffer before she could recover.
Mu Yunyao did not reject the doctor's offer to help Su Qing treat her injuries. She waited until he had finished prescribing the medicine and added a few more herbs before letting Si Qin boil the medicine. Mu Yunyao purposely added some sleeping aid to the medicine, so Su Qing fell asleep not long after she drank it. Seeing that Su Qing was sleeping soundly, Mu Yunyao stood up and went to the outer room to sit down. Si Qin and Si Qin hurriedly went forward to kneel on the ground. Their faces were full of shame as they quietly waited for her punishment ...
After a long time, Mu Yunyao finally spoke."Tell me everything that happened tonight in full detail." "Yes, miss." Si Qin opened his mouth first."After Miss went to help Grand Princess Yi copy the scriptures, I accompanied Madame in taking some tea and snacks. Afterwards, I followed yesterday's time to the Blessing Palace to read the scriptures and pray for the blessings." After about two hours, while Si Cha and I were guarding outside, a monk suddenly appeared. He said that Miss was accidentally hurt by a bookcase in the Scripture Pavilion, and asked me to help him. When the servant thought of Si Que guarding the madam, she immediately rushed to the Classic Reproduction Pavilion. Afterwards, all the young miss knew about it ...
"Alright."
Mu Yunyao nodded, "What about you, Si Cha?" Reporting to Miss, not long after Si Qin left, this servant was anxious. Just as I was thinking to tell Madam, I saw that monk walk over again, saying that Miss had been sent to the chamber by a maid, so I didn't have to go to the pavilion and could directly go back to the chamber. This servant then passed the news to Madam and accompanied her to the chamber. When he had just entered the room, there was indeed a person lying on the bed. At that time, this servant was extremely anxious and did not notice anything amiss. Just as he walked up to the bed, he saw that the person on the bed had sprinkled a handful of powder. After that, this servant ...
He and his wife felt powerless and could not even move. Then the fire started, and it was extremely fierce."
Mu Yunyao's eyes seemed to be filled with ice crystals, the light in her eyes rippling yet filled with chilliness."It's six taels, isn't he protecting us from the shadows?"
"This servant doesn't know."
Mu Yunyao remained silent and the room immediately quietened down. After about the time it took to make a cup of tea, footsteps could be heard at the door. The monk stepped forward and opened the door, and he saw several people standing at the entrance.
Mu Yunyao raised her eyes, her gaze unwavering."60 taels of silver, where did you go?"
He walked into the room and knelt down, "Reporting to Master, I have been lured away and have fallen into an ambush."Cough cough ..." As he said this, he couldn't help but cough twice, and a small trickle of blood seeped out from the corner of his lips.
"With your skill, how many people's ambush could injure you to such an extent?"
"A dozen or so lackeys, plus three inner sect experts."
"What about those people?"
"Dead."
Mu Yunyao's eyes moved, "Have you cleaned up the corpses? "Did you find any clues?" I've interrogated them, and they were easy to find. They said that they were bribed, but they didn't know who it was. They only said that the person had a mole on his forehead. After being injured by me, those two experts from the inner sect saw that they had no way to escape, so they directly killed themselves without giving any orders or explanation. It was not obvious on their bodies ...
"The symbol of." As he said this, he couldn't help but cough twice, and his face turned even paler."Please punish me, Master."
"Two inner force experts ..." Mu Yunyao slightly frowned. Those ten or so hooligans might have been ordered to be found by the First Madam, but what about those two inner sect experts? Was he driven by the First Wife, or was there someone else secretly interfering?
The scribe also rushed back, "Reporting to the young miss, this servant has found out where young miss Su is."
Mu Yunyao nodded as she looked at the three people kneeling on the ground."You three can stand up."
Si Qin and Si Cha looked at each other, bit their lips and kneeled on the ground without making a sound. The six silvers did not have the slightest reaction and continued kneeling with their heads down. Mu Yunyao looked at the three of them and spoke once again, "I believe that the three of you are loyal to mother and me. I also know that this matter happened so suddenly, and that you all did not intentionally cause this situation. Fortunately, mother was fine and was only slightly injured.
"
"Miss, please punish this servant. If you don't punish this servant, then this servant's heart will never be at peace."
Mu Yunyao's eyebrows moved as she lowered her eyes slightly, "Since that's the case, then I'll punish you with three months of money. With this lesson, I believe that you won't make the same mistake the next time. Six silvers, your injuries are quite severe, go and recuperate, don't leave any root of illness."
Lil 'White raised his head and said with an uneasy look, "Master, Lil' Six should be punished..." "What, all of you are starting to feel uneasy even though I'm not punishing you all?" Mu Yunyao let out a faint sigh as she faced him and said, "This is the Treasure Hua Temple. After listening to the Buddhist scriptures for the past few days, your heart is unavoidably a little bit more relaxed. Your punishment is three months' worth of money, and also, if you don't chase after them and kill them ..."
Those people may not have tried to kill your mother, but you didn't really do anything wrong.
"... Six taels of silver thanks Master."
"Get up, the smell of blood on your body is very strong. Go down and bandage your wound first. I will prescribe some medicine to heal your internal energy. Someone will send it over to you later."
"Thank you, Mistress." He looked at Mu Yunyao and saw that she was safe and sound. Only then did the fear in his heart slowly dissipate.
He heard that there was a big fire in the Treasure Hua Temple, and it was in Mu Yunyao's room at that. In his panic, he was only injured when someone found an opening and rushed back. This time, those people were targeting Madam, and some were secretly trying to save her. What if the next time those people attacked the Lady, no one happened to save them? Just thinking of this result made him unable to accept it. It was as if his heart had returned to its previous empty state ...
Like. He gritted his teeth and suppressed the blood in his chest several times. This was enough to teach him a lesson. He would never make the same mistake again!
