Quick Wear: Crazy Fox Calm Tree

Chapter 54 The Young Master and the Jinyiwei Leader 15

Qin Yu and his men had always thought that it was because the people in the Western Regions were stronger, their horses were better, and the place where they fought was their home ground, because there was grass all around, that was why the Great Zhou kept losing. Unexpectedly, someone actually leaked their battle plan.

When Qin Yu thought about how their defense maps had been leaked, resulting in the deaths of many soldiers, he wanted to chop Madam Mu and Nanny Jing to death.

"Sir." Seventeen's eyes were full of anger, and he clenched his fists and made a terrifying sound.

"Check it carefully again to see if there are any fish that have slipped through the net." Qin Yu tapped the table lightly with his fingers, his eyes cold. If the Mu family was really involved, he would never let them go.

"Yes." Seventeen nodded.

Looking at the list of names in his hand, Qin Yu lightly flicked over the names one by one, previous memories emerging in his mind, and finally his fingers stopped on two names.

Mu Wen Ning, Mu Jin Yu

Regardless of whether the other people in the Mu family knew the identities of Nanny Jing and the others, Second Master Mu and the others had lived under the same roof with them for more than ten years. Qin Yu didn't believe that they didn't notice anything.

……

After Mu Qing returned to the room, he felt a little depressed and sat in a chair in a daze for a long time.

He didn't want to do anything at the moment. He just wanted to stay quietly like this. Even the book he originally liked to read, he didn't feel like continuing to read it.

Mu Qing sat in the room for a long time, until it got dark inside, and then he came to his senses.

Seeing that the weather outside was fine, Mu Qing simply opened the door and walked out, strolling on the nearby hillside.

Looking at the green leaves around him, Mu Qing's depression dissipated a lot. Reaching out and touching the rough tree trunk, Mu Qing leaned his forehead against the tree and told the troubles in his heart.

Just when he was talking excitedly, he suddenly felt someone around. He turned around and saw Qin Yu standing behind him.

"Zijin? Are you out for a stroll too?" Mu Qing was a little surprised. He didn't expect to meet Qin Yu here. Shouldn't Qin Yu be very busy? How could he have time to hang out?

"No, I came here because I saw you here. What's wrong? Are you in a bad mood?" Qin Yu asked, looking at Mu Qing's slightly pouting lips.

"A little bit, but it's much better now." Mu Qing nodded and changed the subject, "How is the investigation of your case going?"

"We already have clues, and we should be able to get results soon." Qin Yu said, looking at the sea of ​​trees in the distance.

"That's good." Mu Qing nodded gently, and after a while, he whispered, "Wen Ning was born smart, because he was young at that time, and the second aunt never avoided him when she went out, so he had seen what the second aunt did. Although he didn't understand it at the time, he understood it when he grew up.

He didn't know whether he should tell it or not until I went to him, he made up his mind to tell me everything.

Wen Ning, he is not a bad boy. "

Qin Yu opened his eyes slightly. He didn't expect that the thing that he was worrying about just now had evidence so quickly, and it was sent by the other party's son.

Although he suspected there was something fishy going on, Qin Yu understood after thinking about it carefully.

Although Madam Mu Er and Nanny Jing were both spies from the Western Regions, Mu Wenning grew up in the Great Zhou. And as a boy, he would definitely be taught by Mu Jinyu when he reached school age.

Even though Madam Mu Er was equally talented, she was usually busy delivering messages and probably didn't have much time to teach Mu Wen Ning.

And even if she had the time, she probably wouldn't dare to instigate anything.

After all, Mu Wenning was growing up right under their noses, and as a child, he couldn't keep secrets, so he didn't know what to say and what not to say. If he accidentally let something slip, Mu Jinyu would definitely be suspicious.

Also, Mu Wenning had been very clever since he was young. If he had been following them, he would have figured it out. But they probably didn't expect that Mu Wenning would have figured it out, and he had been doing it for so many years.

Of course, the premise of the above speculation is that Mu Jinyu is innocent and he really doesn't know that Mrs. Mu Er is a spy. Otherwise, if the whole family is acting together, then this family is too terrible.

Seeing Qin Yu thinking, Mu Qing couldn't help but feel a little nervous. He was not afraid that anything would happen to him, but in his memory, the Mu family had always been very nice to Mu Wenqing. If possible, he still hoped that they would be safe and healthy.

"Don't worry, we won't wrongly accuse a good guy. If he is really innocent, the Jinyiwei will not implicate them." Qin Yu assured.

"Yeah." Mu Qing nodded and felt relieved. Since Zi Jin said so, he would definitely do it. In this way, he would not be considered to be letting down the Mu family.

……

The sky gradually darkened and everyone gathered in the lobby. Mu Jinyu frowned as he looked at the other people around him. He couldn't understand why Qin Yu sent people to call them all here?

Mu Wenning sat in the corner with his head down, drinking tea non-stop. His face was a little pale, and he didn't dare to look at other people.

Madam Mu Er and Nanny Jing looked at each other, and Nanny Jing quietly patted her shoulder and shook her head. Madam Mu Er took a deep breath, sat in a chair and sipped tea quietly, but it was unknown what she was thinking.

Seeing their strange looks, the Jinyiwei on the side said nothing, but just quietly surrounded everyone in the hall.

It was not until Mu Jinyu and the others had drunk several cups of tea that Mu Qing and Qin Yu came in.

"Wen Qing, what's going on?" Mu Jinyu was also a little angry at this moment. He hadn't encountered such a situation for decades. Today, these people didn't say anything and surrounded their family of three here. If there was no legitimate reason, then don't blame him for complaining.

"Second uncle, there is a reason why we gathered everyone here today." Mu Qing said soothingly, looking at Mu Jinyu with a hint of apology in his eyes.

Mu Jinyu didn't say anything, but gestured for him to continue.

Mu Qing told the story of how he discovered a spy on the street, sent the spy to jail, and then the spy disappeared, leaving only the Mu family's peach wood plaque at the scene.

Mu Jinyu and the others then understood why Mu Qing came here. After all, they had also seen the peach wood plaque. It was something of the Mu family, but it looked a bit out of place.

And the person who could take out that set of wooden signs must be related to the Mu family.

"Before coming here, we went to my uncle's place... and learned from Uncle Qiu that this kind of wordless peach wood plaque has actually been made for a long time. Uncle Qiu has been receiving news that Brother Ning likes peach wood plaques very much and uses them to practice carving.

This is one of the reasons why we came here, but after coming here, we found that Brother Ning not only doesn't like peach wood cards, but also can't learn carving. "Mu Qing looked at Mu Wenning apologetically, feeling sorry for doubting him before.

Mu Wen Ning shook his head slightly. He had guessed this later, but he didn't care.

"Because there are still some things that have not been clarified here, we simply stayed here. It was not until today that we finally found the clues." Qin Yu said.

In an instant, everyone was attracted by his words and stared at him intently.

Qin Yu looked at Madam Mu Er and the others with slightly evasive and nervous eyes, and told them the news that the Jinyiwei had investigated one by one. As their identities were exposed, Madam Mu Er and the others looked very ugly, and even wanted to leave directly, but they were stopped by the Jinyiwei beside them one by one, and could only sit quietly in the chair and listen to Qin Yu.

Mu Jinyu's face also turned very ugly. At first, he thought that this group of Jinyiwei were deceiving him and wanted to capture his wife to take the blame, or they were arresting people indiscriminately.

But as he listened, Mu Jinyu could sense something was wrong. If they really had made a mistake or were arresting people randomly, then the information should not be so clear. Moreover, many of the times and places were very familiar to him, as these were places he had been to before.

Mu Jinyu looked at Madam Mu Er in astonishment, expecting her explanation, but Madam Mu Er did not speak. She just looked down at the cup in her hand.

No matter how she argued, she could never fool the Jinyiwei. Since they dared to say it openly, they must have investigated it clearly long ago.

The light in Mu Jinyu's eyes dimmed little by little. He never expected that his wife, who had been with him for more than ten years, was actually a spy, and the eldest one. For so many years, he had been running around with his wife, feeling guilty, loving, and angry, but he had never doubted her. He never expected it!

"Wan Niang." Mu Jinyu looked at Madam Mu Er and wanted to ask something, but finally swallowed it back, his eyes were very complicated.

"Master Mu, now that we have dealt with the Second Madam's affairs, the only ones left are you and the young master." Seventeen said.

"What's our business?" Mu Jinyu turned his head and asked coldly.

"Do you know Xiao Wan's identity?" Seventeen asked as a matter of routine.

"I don't know. I always thought she was an orphan." Mu Jinyu shook his head. When she met Madam Mu Er, she said that she was an orphan. Both her parents were gone, and the elders in her family were not kind. She had no choice but to go far away.

Mu Jinyu believed her without careful investigation, but he didn't expect that everything she said was false, her identity was false, her parents' death was false, and her mother was clearly by her side.

Mu Jinyu glanced at Madam Jing, then looked away. Although he had felt that Madam Jing had a bad temper, he had always thought that it was just Madam Jing's personality. In addition, she was his wife's wet nurse after all, so Mu Jinyu was very tolerant towards Madam Jing.

He treated the other person as an elder in the family, but he didn't expect that the other person was actually an elder, and his own mother-in-law.

"I know." Mu Wen Ning suddenly said.

In an instant, Mu Jinyu and the others looked over in surprise, but Mu Wenning ignored their gazes and continued talking to himself.

"I know. I can remember things from a very early age, but my mother always treated me as a child. Many times when she went out to do things, she took me with her.

So I remember it." Mu Wenning said and looked at Madam Mu Er.

Madam Mu Er and Nanny Jing clenched their fists, wishing they could give Mu Wen Ning a good beating. They didn't expect that this boy had betrayed them. But in the end, they sighed and let go.

Never mind. Even if this kid wasn’t there, they wouldn’t be able to hide for long if the Jinyiwei arrived. It’s just a matter of sooner or later.

"Mom, I'm sorry, I still failed." Before Madam Mu Er was taken away, she looked at Nanny Jing beside her and said.

After so many years, she can finally call her mother again, without any regrets.

"It's okay. I knew from the beginning that there was a high chance of failure." Nanny Jing shook her head. It was not easy to be a spy.

One of them, mother and daughter, had never learned anything, and although the other had learned something, she had been sent out very early. The two of them together were only half as good as a bottle of sesame oil. How could they possibly withstand a special investigation?

Not to mention others, they were not even as good as their own spies at the beginning, and they had to learn slowly before they could understand.

The attitude of the people in the Western Regions towards them was very unclear. They said they trusted them but did not send them money or things. They said they did not trust them but sent so many spies over and believed in the news they sent back.

Nanny Jing had no doubt that if their identities were exposed, the Western Region King would definitely not save them. After all, her appearance had already declined over the years. As for daughters, the Western Region King had no shortage of children. Not to mention daughters, he didn't even have sons and daughters. He couldn't even count the number of children with official titles on his ten fingers.

Not to mention those illegitimate children who have no name or status.

Apart from other reasons, one very important reason why Nanny Jing was willing to be a spy was to find a way out for herself and her daughter. Otherwise, who would remember them?

Now that her daughter has grown up and her grandson is already quite old, she can be considered content.

As Nanny Jing was walking, she suddenly laughed twice, looked back, and saw Mu Wenning standing in the yard. She showed a kind smile on her face, then turned and left.

Mu Qing looked at their backs as they left, and for some reason he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. Looking at Mu Wenning standing in the yard, Mu Qing walked over, patted the other's shoulder gently, and then left.

When Qin Yu and Mu Jinyu came out of the room, Mu Jinyu's complexion had improved a lot. Although he was still a little sad, he was in better spirits than before.

"What are you doing?" Mu Jinyu asked puzzledly while looking at Mu Wenning who was standing alone in the yard and Mu Qing who was standing beside him and watching him quietly.

"Second aunt has left. I saw that brother Ning was in a bad mood, so I stood here to accompany him." Mu Qing said, standing up straight. In fact, he was afraid that Mu Wen Ning would do something. After all, the mother and son got along very well. Mu Wen Ning had always been proud of having such a knowledgeable mother.

Now that things have suddenly turned out like this, Mu Qing is really afraid that the other party will be unable to get over it.

"Well, then you sit here with him for a while!" Mu Jinyu looked at Mu Wenning and nodded.

"No need, I'm fine, father! I'll go back first." Mu Wenning said and turned back to his yard.
