Chapter 224 Sobering Up Soup
Chapter 224 Sobering Up Soup
Mu Wenyu waited until His Majesty finally left before he asked someone to bring Mu Lianxue over.
How could Mu Lianxue appear in front of Xue Niang's yard at that time?
Mu Wenyu also asked his servants to investigate the origins of the drugs and the dagger that fell on the ground.
And who exactly led the servant outside the door away!
Xu Jingshu, Mu Jinfeng, Lin Xueruo and Mu Jinrong have not left yet. To be precise, they were left behind by Mu Wenyu to be observed.
During this period of time, Mu Wenyu realized that except Xue Niang and Jin Rong, there was no normal person in the family.
Oh, there is also a married Tangxi.
So Mu Wenyu put them all in front of him and interrogated Mu Lianxue.
Mu Lianxue was escorted in by two servants. She complained with a face full of grievance: "Father! Mother! Why did you lock me up in the woodshed?"
"Did I not call the servants in time? I was just frightened and didn't react!"
Mu Wenyu half leaned on the pillow, his eyes piercing Mu Lianxue coldly. He threw the blood-stained dagger in front of Mu Lianxue, "Is this yours?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Lianxue looked at the dagger and her breathing paused. It really was hers!
But she still refused to admit it, "Father, this is not mine. I don't have a dagger!"
But Mu Wenyu had already noticed the change in Mu Lianxue's expression, and his face darkened.
"Then why did you appear there at that time?" Lin Xueruo asked with a rare smile on her face.
When Mu Lianxue was asked about this, she hurriedly began to explain, "A servant told me that my father wanted to see me, so I came!"
The Prime Minister's wife walked in at this time and sat directly on a chair in the room. Without even looking at Lin Xueruo and the master, she asked, "Servants? Which servants? Tell me their names and I'll have someone look for them!"
After all, Mu Lianxue is still useful now.
Even if she really hurt the master, so what?
I hope this couple gets into trouble!
Xu Jingshu brushed past the master's wound without any emotion. She had even poisoned him anyway.
Even if he was cured by an imperial physician, his life and death were still in her hands, and she could poison him again at any time!
Mu Lianxue was stumped by the question for a moment and didn't know what to say. She tried desperately to recall the appearance of those servants just now, but she had no impression.
Mu Jinrong looked at Mu Lianxue lightly, struggling desperately!
Xu Jingshu frowned. How could Mu Lianxue know nothing? Was she really ignorant?
Or did she really do it?
If she was the one who hurt the master, how could she be caught so easily?
Did Mu Lianxue fail to expect that the master would crawl out regardless of his status?
Xu Jingshu took a look at the bloodstain and her eyes jumped.
At this moment, a servant suddenly came running in and reported: "Master, Madam, something bad has happened!"
Mu Wenyu and Xu Jingshu immediately looked over there.
"Several bodies suddenly floated up in the lake!"
Mu Wenyu, Xu Jingshu, Lin Xueruo:!
Mu Jinfeng and other two:!
Mu Lianxue was still thinking about how to get rid of suspicion and had no energy to pay attention to other things. Someone was dead, so what? How could it be more important than her?
Mu Jinrong looked at the servant with a little surprise. Wasn't this the servant who had just helped him throw those servants into the lake?
Forget it, it’s just right that the body appeared.
Mu Jinfeng took a deep breath. Why are there so many troubles today?
Moreover, he completely accepted the fact that the person who hurt his father was Mu Lianxue. After all, Mu Lianxue had done so many ridiculous things that it was outrageous.
This seems like something she could do!
Mu Wenyu asked calmly, "Have you found out the identities of those bodies?"
The servant replied in a horrified manner: "Master, we have found out that they are the servants of Miss Mu Er."
Mu Lianxue was still thinking about what words to use to clear her suspicion, but before she could figure it out, she was crushed by this huge pot.
"Someone must have framed me!" Mu Lianxue said gritting her teeth.
Mu Wenyu was silent for a while, then turned to look at Mu Jinfeng unexpectedly, "What were you doing just now?"
Mu Jinfeng's pupils shrank for a moment, and he quickly reacted, "I was just resting in my room. I feel much better now because I drank the hangover soup."
Mu Wenyu looked at Mu Jinfeng with deep eyes for a while, then turned to look at Mu Jinbai and Mu Jinxi and asked, "What about you?"
Mu Jinbai and Mu Jinxi also repeated their eldest brother's answer and made some minor changes.
For example, Mu Jinbai said, "I drank the hangover soup and prepared to go find Mu Lianxue, but unfortunately I didn't pick her."
Mu Jinxi said, "After drinking the hangover soup, read a book in the room."
The room was quiet for a moment, and Xu Jingshu couldn't help but ask, "Master, are you doubting Jinfeng and the others?!"
"They are your sons!"
Mu Wenyu shouted, "Shut up!"
He stared at the three children in front of him, "Are what you said true?"
Mu Jinfeng and the other two nodded firmly.
"Very good," Mu Wenyu sighed, "Then can you tell me, what other things did you do after drinking the hangover soup with the sleeping pills added to it?"
Mu Jinfeng and the other two were silent. A hangover soup with sleeping pills added? !
Mu Lianxue, you actually added drugs to the hangover soup? !
What they said now is full of loopholes!
Mu Lianxue snorted coldly, "Father, I think the three of them did it together! They actually wanted to hide their whereabouts!"
Xu Jingshu secretly cursed Mu Lianxue for being an idiot. If her son was really the villain who hurt the master, how could he not know that the hangover soup had been spiked with drugs? !
Mu Jinfeng quickly explained: "Father, I drank a little less wine at the banquet, so I didn't touch the hangover soup. I just said I drank the hangover soup because I was afraid that father would think that no one wanted to chat with me and toast each other!"
Mu Jinbai didn't bother to think and said directly: "I took a sip and found it unpalatable, so I threw it away."
Mu Jinxi lowered her head and said, "I don't want to drink. If I drink, it will be very uncomfortable to go to the toilet."
This reason was very real, and the others subconsciously glanced at that place of Mu Jinxi.
Mu Wenyu just said lightly, "Really?"
Lin Xueruo's gaze lingered on Mu Jinfeng and the other two and Mu Lianxue. She always felt that they could all do this, and Mu Lianxue was the most suspicious among them!
Mu Jinrong stood beside his mother with a confused look on his face.
So Mu Jinfeng and the others really lied?
But why would they lie?
However, the current situation is very favorable for him.
Hopefully they can muddy the waters a bit more!
Mu Lianxue was still shouting, "Father, they must hate me, so they thought of framing me in this way!"
Mu Jinfeng and the other two were slandered for no reason and were so angry that they wanted to hit someone.
Mu Jinbai directly retorted, "You know you are annoying, why don't you stay away from me?"
Mu Jinfeng then said: "Father, we really won't hurt you."
