Chapter 168 When did he take advantage of the power of King Yan?
"Since you came back, there has been no peace in this mansion!" Mu Xun's face was full of anger.
Mu Xun stared at Mu Lanfeng and continued angrily, "Look at what you have done. You have turned this nice mansion into a mess. Now everyone is in danger and can't live in peace. What else do you want? Do you have to make this mansion a mess before you will stop?"
Mu Lanfeng lowered his head slightly but said nothing.
Seeing this, Mu Xun was even more furious. He paced back and forth, his hands shaking. "I shouldn't have let you come back in the first place. You are a disaster! How should this situation end?"
Mu Lanfeng raised her head suddenly, her eyes flashing with coldness, "Father said I was a nuisance? Have you ever thought about whether I would still make trouble if it was really me? Or is it that this mansion can't accommodate a daughter like me for a day?"
Mu Xun's eyes widened with anger, and he shouted loudly: "Humph! There is no place for you in the mansion? Look at what you have done, how can you be like a lady from a noble family? Relying on the power of the King of Yan, you stir up trouble all day long, making this mansion restless! If you had been quiet, how could you have had this incident today?"
Mu Lanfeng's eyes were full of disdain, and he asked in a cold voice: "Father, think carefully, when has your daughter ever relied on the power of King Yan?"
The corner of Mu Xun's mouth twitched slightly, and he hurriedly avoided Mu Lanfeng's cold eyes, and then said in a cold voice: "Don't talk nonsense with your father here! You know very well whether you have relied on the power of King Yan! What your father wants to ask you now is, were those dead people on the roof caused by you?"
"So what if it is? So what if it isn't?" Mu Lanfeng looked at Mu Xun coldly with a frosty face, and asked sharply, "If it was really me, would father hand his daughter over to the government for investigation?"
"A country has its own laws, and a family has its own rules!" Mu Xun said sternly and ruthlessly, "If this is indeed what you did, even if your father wants to, it is difficult for him to protect you!"
What a heartless person!
A hint of loss flashed across Mu Lanfeng's eyes, but after just a moment, his cold and frosty expression quickly returned to its original state.
"Father, why not wait!" Mu Lanfeng said.
"Wait? Waiting for what? What on earth are you doing?" Mu Xun had a complicated expression, full of confusion.
"Wait for the Jingzhao prefect's people to arrive." Mu Lanfeng retracted his gaze and said in a slightly calmer tone, "Father, don't worry. This matter will never implicate you, and it will certainly not implicate the Mu family."
Mu Xun frowned, and the doubt in his eyes became more and more intense.
"Father thought that if foreign envoys from various countries came to Longyuan to pay homage, there would be no war. It was just an appearance. The border forces were ready to make a move. Forget it. You wouldn't believe it even if I told you!" Mu Lanfeng said slowly.
Mu Xun was startled, his expression instantly became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Don't say this casually. You are a little girl, what do you know about war? If there are really forces gathering on the border, how could His Majesty not know about it?"
Knowing that Mu Xun would not believe it, Mu Lanfeng was too lazy to explain. He shook his head helplessly and said calmly: "Father, since you don't believe me, that's fine! After some time, I will leave the Mu Mansion, so that you can turn a blind eye to it!"
"What do you mean?" Mu Xun asked in confusion.
"Father, have you ever thought about why your wife is so eager to marry off your beloved daughter?" Mu Lanfeng asked back.
Mu Xun lowered his head, lost in thought, feeling completely confused.
His Majesty has already made it clear that there are no good days before the New Year, but Jiang still entered the palace. I don't know what method she used to get the Queen Mother to help and arrange Mu Baiying's marriage before the New Year.
It was precisely because of this that Lou Heng confronted him head-on in the court and refused to give in!
Afterwards, I asked Jiang the reason, but she was evasive and said that it would be better to do it as soon as possible to avoid any more trouble!
"Father, why don't we go back and wait for the Jingzhao prefect to arrive. If there is any unexpected situation by then, it will not be too late for you to send me to the authorities." Mu Lanfeng said slowly.
"It's easy for you to say that. Your legs are on your body. What if you run away?" Mu Xun said with a frown.
"Father, don't you and I have even this little bit of trust between us?" Mu Lanfeng interrupted Mu Xun with a questioning tone.
"I……"
Mu Lanfeng rubbed his cold hands and said in a cold voice: "If father is worried, you can find someone to guard Ziyunxuan!"
"Hmph!" Mu Xun snorted coldly, his face full of anger, "Father will wait and see what tricks you can come up with by then."
After saying that, he turned around and left!
"Miss, what's happening to the Prime Minister?" Bi Qing asked in confusion, looking at Mu Xun's receding back.
"Don't worry about him." Mu Lanfeng said, rubbing his hands that were a little red from the cold, and turned to walk into the house.
Biqing had a bewildered look on her face, and stared at Mu Xun's receding back for a long time before she slowly turned around and followed him into the house.
After entering the house, Biqing discovered that Mu Lanfeng's long whip was actually placed on the table.
It was obvious that it had been used not long ago, as there seemed to be some blood stains on the whip.
Mu Lanfeng leaned lazily on the soft pillow, looking out the window with a dazed look in his eyes, and it was unknown what he was staring at.
"If you really want to know what happened, why not go to the front yard and take a look!" Mu Lanfeng said casually.
"Ah?" Bi Qing was confused and had no idea what Mu Lanfeng meant. She looked at her with a puzzled look on her face.
"It's a good time to go and see if the people from Jingzhao Yinfu have arrived?" Mu Lanfeng continued.
After hearing what Mu Lanfeng said, Bi Qing stopped asking questions and walked straight out.
About a cup of tea later, Biqing came back in a hurry.
"Miss, the people from Jingzhao Yinfu have arrived!"
Mu Lanfeng closed his eyes and just said "hmm". This was expected and there was nothing strange about it.
Bi Qing's face was solemn, and he whispered: "Those people are spies that Tianluo sneaked in!"
"Hmm!" Mu Lanfeng still just hummed.
"Miss, you knew it a long time ago! Last night?" Bi Qing looked at Mu Lanfeng and asked.
Mu Lanfeng opened his eyes slightly and nodded, with no major change on his expression.
Biqing opened her mouth, seemed to be about to say something, and finally swallowed back what she wanted to say.
At this time, Hongyin looked panicked and hurried into the house.
Her eyes were full of panic. She first quickly glanced at Biqing beside her, and then walked straight towards Mu Lanfeng. After standing beside Mu Lanfeng, she stared at Mu Lanfeng straight, as if there was something urgent that she wanted to tell.
Mu Lanfeng immediately understood what Hong Yin meant and slowly said, "Biqing, go guard outside!"
"Yes, girl!" Biqing looked up at Hongyin, bowed, turned and walked out.
"Tell me! What's the matter? Why are you so flustered?" Mu Lanfeng asked.
Hong Yin glanced at the door and whispered, "Something happened in Divine Doctor Valley!"
When Mu Lanfeng heard this, the tiredness in his eyes instantly disappeared without a trace. He sat up suddenly, looking solemn, and asked anxiously: "What's going on?"
"Someone has actually broken into the maze outside the valley! The situation is urgent, and the girl may have to go back in person!" Hong Yin replied hurriedly, her tone full of worry.
Mu Lanfeng stood up suddenly, looking anxious, and continued to ask anxiously: "Do you know who this person is?"
"Shu Ya only said it was a young man in white!" Hong Yin replied quickly.
Mu Lanfeng quickly put on his cloak, neatly put away his long whip, and shouted: "Let's go! Go back and see who is so bold as to trespass into our Divine Doctor Valley! I must give this ignorant person a good lesson!"
When I opened the door, I saw Biqing standing outside.
Mu Lanfeng's eyes flickered between Biqing and Hongyin, and then she glanced at Hongyin again and said in a deep voice, "Biqing and I will go check the situation first, and you come quickly afterwards. Let Feiyan keep this a secret for now, and we must keep it a secret for as long as possible!"
Hongyin showed some worry on her face. She first glanced at Biqing, then looked at Mu Lanfeng, and quickly nodded and said, "Yes, don't worry, young lady, I will definitely get it done!"
"Biqing, let's go!" Mu Lanfeng said seriously.
It was the first time that Biqing saw Mu Lanfeng so serious.
She was full of doubts and had no idea where to go, but she didn't dare to ask rashly. She could only lower her head slightly and follow Mu Lanfeng silently.
