Quick Wear: Crazy Fox Calm Tree

"You already know, Uncle You. Second Aunt's Nanny Jing is a maid who married with her. Although I don't know if they grew up together, even if not, they have been together for more than ten years. Moreover, she has always had a good relationship with Second Aunt. In addition, the meals for their family are cooked by Nanny Jing, so even if they are strangers, they have feelings for each other.

Ningdi's servant Awen grew up with him. He helps to organize Ningdi's things. If he wants the peach wood plaque, he can get it without telling anyone else.

Even if Brother Ning knew, he wouldn't say anything given the relationship between them."

Mu Qing spread his hands after he finished speaking. Second Uncle's family was no different from other places. There were only a few people in the family, and they had lived together for at least a dozen years. Even if there was no kinship, there would be some affection.

Qin Yu frowned when he heard this.

"Why are there only three servants? Even though there is one servant for each person, it is still a little too few." Qin Yu had always thought that the three servants Mu Qing was talking about were servants who were specifically responsible for taking care of the three of Master Mu.

But apart from that, there should be cleaning and cooking, but I didn't expect that these were all their jobs.

"Originally, we should have found a few more people, but Second Uncle was traveling around to study at the beginning, so it was not convenient for him to bring too many people. Later, after we settled down, we got used to it. Besides, there are few people in our family and the yard is small, so it doesn't take much effort, so we just do it this way." Mu Qing relayed to Qin Yu the answer that Second Uncle Mu had given him before.

He was also curious when he was a child, but as he grew up, he gradually forgot about it.

Qin Yu nodded. This was reasonable. After all, not everyone likes a luxurious life. Some people prefer a simple life, like those literati and poets.

"Zijin, what else do you want to investigate now?" Mu Qing asked after taking a sip of tea.

"What? Can't you wait?" Qin Yu was a little confused. He didn't know why Mu Qing had been a little impatient these past two days, completely different from his usual open-minded and lazy self.

"Not really, it's just that it's not good to live here for too long." Mu Qing had a hint of annoyance on his face.

"?" Qin Yu looked at Mu Qing in confusion. This was his uncle's house. What was wrong with living here? He wasn't living here permanently, he was just a guest.

"I don't know why, but I always feel a little awkward living in my second uncle's house." Facing Qin Yu's puzzled look, Mu Qing explained awkwardly. He couldn't tell whether it was because there were too many rules or because they were too strict.

But there don't seem to be many rules. If it's strict, apart from asking myself to read more, it seems that my second uncle and others haven't said anything.

But for some reason I just felt awkward. Even though no one was trying to chase me away, I just felt embarrassed to stay there.

"Maybe it's because Second Uncle's family is small and the yard is small, so living here causes them a lot of trouble!" Mu Qing said after thinking for a moment.

Qin Yu looked at Mu Qing and for some reason suddenly wanted to touch his head, but when he raised his hand he felt that this was not a good idea, so he finally patted his back gently.

"We should have news in half a day. Let's stay here for another night. If there is still no result tomorrow, we will leave the day after tomorrow." Qin Yu turned his head and said, only to feel his chest a little itchy, as if it was scratched by cat hair.

"Yeah." Mu Qing nodded happily. Looking at Qin Yu's red ears, he couldn't help but lowered his head and laughed.

……

Sitting in the room, Qin Yu repeated and combined the recent events in his mind over and over again, and wrote down names on paper from time to time.

Looking at the contact diagram on the paper, Qin Yu suddenly spoke.

"Seventeen."

Seventeen, who was flipping through the materials, looked up from a pile of books, his eyes full of confusion.

"Sir, what's wrong?"

"Send your men to investigate every member of Mu Erye's family and have them follow them to see if there are any problems."

"Yes." Seventeen nodded, "Boss, the brothers from Uncle Mu's family sent news that everything in the Mu family's ancestral home is normal and there is nothing suspicious.

Also, because last winter was quite cold and the roads were blocked by heavy snow, Uncle Mu did not go out to do business. He just sold some small items nearby, so he was easy to investigate.

The brothers of Uncle Mu's family also searched everywhere, but did not find any extra mahogany plaques. The mahogany plaques of the two brothers and Uncle Mu were very old, and the dark patterns on them were a little blurred. There was no possibility of forgery or modification. "

"I understand." Qin Yu nodded. This result was within his expectations. He did not sense any scent of criminals from Mu Jinli's family. The reason he sent people to investigate was just to be prepared.

"In that case, let's focus on investigating Master Mu's family."

"Yes!"

While Qin Yu was busy as hell, Mu Qing was much more relaxed. He was either reading a book in his room or walking around to see if there was anything he liked.

Mu Qing was walking into the yard with the snacks he had just bought, and happened to meet Madam Mu Er who was about to go out.

When she saw Mu Qing, Mrs. Mu's eyes suddenly lit up. She quickly walked over and called out to Mu Qing.

"Second aunt." Mu Qing stopped and looked at Madam Mu Er who was walking hurriedly over, with a little surprise on her face.

"Wen Qing, are you busy now? If not, can you help me pick up Wen Ning? I have something urgent here." Mrs. Mu Er asked anxiously.

Mu Qing nodded.

"I'm fine, Second Aunt, where is Brother Ning? Should we go now?"

"It's not far. Just walk two miles to the left out of the village and you will reach the place called Bai Mansion. When you get there, speak nicely and don't be so dull." After saying this, Madam Mu Er left in a hurry without giving Mu Qing any chance to ask any questions.

Mu Qing stretched out his hand and whispered, "You haven't told me the time yet?"

Looking at the sun in the sky, he realized that it was getting late. After returning the pastries in his hand, Mu Qing went to the address given by Madam Mu Er.

Not long after leaving the village, Mu Qing saw a lonely house in the middle of the field. Although it looked ordinary from the outside, he could hear melodious piano sounds when he got closer.

Mu Qing walked slowly towards Bai's house while listening to the music of the guzheng.

It was not until he stood in front of the gate of Bai Mansion that Mu Qing realized that Bai Mansion was not as small as he had imagined, nor was it so desolate. Instead, it was a mansion that looked like a Jiangnan garden.

Mu Qing knocked on the door, but it was pushed open. Mu Qing called out twice but no one came out.

Seeing this, Mu Qing said something and walked straight into the yard. Following the direction from which the music came, Mu Qing quickly found where they were playing the zither.

Under a tree by the lake, Mu Wenning and Mr. Bai sat face to face, both with their eyes half closed, playing the piano intently.

After the song, Mr. Bai opened his eyes and nodded with satisfaction.

"Not bad, not bad, this piece of High Mountains and Flowing Water is played very well."

"Master, I always feel that what I play on the guqin is not as good as what you play on the guqin. Is it because "High Mountains and Flowing Water" is more suitable for the guqin?" Mu Wenning asked puzzledly.

“Part of the reason is that it’s more about understanding. Only by experiencing the emotions involved can you play better music.

Although you are gifted and intelligent, and you are good at dealing with people, you are also quite indifferent. The high mountains and flowing water are the feelings of the friendship between Bo Ya and Zhong Ziqi. Your piano skills are close to perfect, but you are a little lacking in emotion. "Mr. Bai said as he played a simple piece of music. Although it was very simple and there was no superb technique in it, it made people feel very beautiful, as if they were in the fields.

Mu Wen Ning nodded in understanding.

Mu Qing stood outside the yard, listening quietly, nodding from time to time, and evaluating their piano playing in his mind.

Just when he was listening attentively, he suddenly heard someone calling him.

"Sir standing outside the wall, how do you think our piano sounds?" Mr. Bai asked loudly.

When Mu Qing saw that he was discovered, he walked out with a hint of apology on his face.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop. Second aunt had something to do, so she asked me to pick up Wen Ning."

Mr. Bai nodded.

"Wen Ning, it's getting late today, you should go back first! Remember to practice more."

"Yes." Mu Wenning nodded and said respectfully

Mu Qing was in a relaxed and leisurely mood, while Qin Yu was just the opposite.

Looking at the information he had just received, Qin Yu raised the corners of his mouth and revealed a bright smile. He looked very attractive, but Seventeen and the others shuddered.

The last time the boss laughed like this, he killed 132 people. Although the other party deserved it, the boss's methods were cruel.

Now that he is laughing like this, it seems that the Mu family is going to be in big trouble. I just don’t know if Master Mu will be implicated. The eldest brother usually treats Master Mu more closely than his own brother, and I don’t know if he will let him go this time.

"grown ups……"

"Speak." Qin Yu said coldly.

"According to our investigation, Madam Mu and Nanny Jing are both suspects, but I don't know whether Mu Wenning is aware of the suspicion or not." The Imperial Guard said honestly.

"..." Qin Yu threw a look over there, and this time the other party didn't hesitate any more.

"Mrs. Mu Er doesn't have much to do on weekdays. Her main job is to pick up Mu Wen Ning from school.

Whenever she had something to deal with, she would use this as an excuse, and even took Mu Wenning with her to cover her whereabouts. Although Mu Wenning was relatively young at the time, he might have known her identity a long time ago. "

"Check whether he was involved. As for the rest, we'll see the results of the investigation. Maybe everyone will die together." Qin Yu said sarcastically.

"Yes."

Five or six Jinyiwei did not return that night, and when they came back the next day, it was already noon.

Mu Qing sat at the table, drinking tea and looking at Qin Yu from time to time.

Didn't they agree to leave today if there was no news yesterday? It was almost time for lunch, why wasn't Qin Yu planning to leave yet? Was she waiting for him to ask?

Mu Qing looked at the study, leaned over to Qin Yu and asked, "Zijin, should I go and tell Second Uncle that we are leaving soon?"

"Wait a moment." Qin Yu said in a low voice, fiddling with the teacup beside him. He was waiting for news.

Glancing at Seventeen, he saw him nod solemnly, and Qin Yu's heart sank.

It was good to have news, as the case on hand could finally be solved. But if the Mu family was really related to the spies, then Mu Qing...

Although he felt a little complicated, Qin Yu still stood up and walked outside with Shiqi.

Mu Qing looked at their departing backs and suddenly felt a little flustered. He touched his chest, with a look of confusion on his face.

……

After taking a sip of tea, Mu Qing sighed silently in his heart. He was too careless and too arrogant.

I always thought I was so powerful that finding people in these small worlds would be a piece of cake. Even if I couldn't find them in one go, it would be fine.

But he didn't expect that a mistake would occur only for the second time. Before that, he only knew the original story of the book and what happened to the male and female protagonists in this world.

But he ignored the things happening in the body he was in, and these things were actually related to himself and Qin Yu.

In the original novel, Qin Yu is the gloomy and ruthless leader of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, who is responsible for monitoring all officials and helping the emperor deal with some matters.

Because of his work and his own personality, he had no friendship with other ministers in the court, and there were even few who did not dislike him.

Originally this was not a big deal, but when he got into trouble, the matter was magnified infinitely and eventually led to his death.

The first thing is that Qin Yu did not complete the task assigned to him by the emperor. He did not find the person behind the Da Zhou spies and only caught some small fish and shrimps, which reduced the emperor's favor.

The second incident was that Qin Yu raided the home of a corrupt official who was originally responsible for building dams and clearing rivers. However, he did not fulfill his duties and embezzled the money allocated by the court, which led to frequent floods and submerged a lot of land and crops. He was reported to the capital by refugees.

Qin Yu raided the corrupt official's house, but he didn't find the money. Someone asked him what to do with the refugees and the dam? After all, according to the emperor's intention, he wanted them to use the money they found to save people and build the dam.

But now the money has disappeared, and the refugees have no time to wait, so we can only think of a solution as soon as possible.

Qin Yu casually asked someone to embezzle some of the other disaster relief funds first, and then make up the difference when there was money available.

Originally, this was not a big deal. After all, the money was just for precautionary measures. It was not certain whether other disasters would happen in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

But unexpectedly, there was a snowstorm in the Great Zhou Dynasty that year, which was a blizzard, which crushed many houses and froze many people and animals to death.

The most important thing is that Qin Yu just said it casually at the time and forgot about it afterwards, so he did not report it to the emperor, and secondly, he forgot to make up for the disaster relief silver, which was considered as misappropriation of disaster relief silver.

So when it was discovered later, the court officials blamed him for the people who died from the snowstorm, saying that if it weren't for Qin Yu, so many people wouldn't have frozen to death.
