Family affection? Is it important to have rights?

Mu Tangxi didn't have to wait long before he heard the sound of running coming from far away outside the door.

She waved her hand to signal Dongzhu to open the door.

As soon as Dong Zhu opened the door, she saw Shen Qiu, who was sweating all over. She looked away with some disgust, wondering how he got himself into this state.

If the young lady was not still waiting for news from Shen Qiu, she would have let Shen Qiu tidy himself up outside before going in.

Shen Qiu calmed his violent breathing and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.

He walked into the house excitedly, and waited until Dong Zhu closed the door before he could not wait to speak out, "Miss, I have lived up to your expectations and found the mansion where the young master keeps the slaves and the mansion where the master's mistress lives."

Mu Tangxi didn't expect that Shen Qiu completed both tasks she asked him to do.

Her first reaction was to assign him another task.

Hmm…I’ll think about it later.

"Where is the residence of my father's concubine?"

Mu Tangxi was very curious about this. In the previous life, the mother and daughter were brought back by their father himself, and they never revealed their previous accommodation.

"Oh, the master even went around that place several times, and then stopped in an alley. It's only a short walk from the alley entrance."

Shen Qiu felt sore all over at the moment. The amount of exercise he did this time was more than the total of the previous few tracking sessions.

"If you don't go around in circles, it's pretty close to the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Yes, very close, otherwise how could her biological mother switch her with Mu Lianxue without Xu Jingshu noticing.

Although my father found out, he just watched from the sidelines.

Moreover, revealing the truth would bring him trouble. Xu Jingshu would find out that he had a mistress and quarrel with him. Lin Xueruo would also fall out with Xu Jingshu. So Mu Wenyu simply pretended nothing happened.

"Did you hear what your father said to that mistress?"

Seeing the look of seeking credit on his face, Mu Tangxi knew that he had something else to say.

Shen Qiu opened his mouth but hesitated. How should he tell the young lady that the concubine's child is almost the same age as her?

Moreover, the child directly calls the master "Dad", calling him more intimately than the young lady.

"It's okay, just talk." Mu Tangxi said calmly. She was in a good mood after slept until she woke up naturally.

"Miss, I heard the voice of the concubine's child. She should be about your age."

Shen Qiu raised his eyes to look at the young lady, and after seeing that her expression did not change, he continued.

"That concubine's child even calls me Master and Dad."

Mu Tangxi was surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that Mu Lianxue had started to please her father when she was a child?

Her father would never ask her what to call him, and her mother who replaced her would never bring up the matter of calling her that.

It seems that Mu Lianxue is very smart.

Although she did some stupid things in her previous life, she got what she wanted, fame, status, money, husband, and so on.

I have to say she is very lucky, everything goes smoothly for her.

By the way, she was just thinking about what she wanted Shen Qiu to do, and now she has it.

"Shen Qiu, I'm worried that they might take my father away, so can you continue to help me follow them?"

Mu Tangxi sat at the innermost part of the room. The sunlight coming through the window could not reach her, but only shined on Dong Zhu and Shen Qiu.

So Shen Qiu and Dong Zhu couldn't see the lady's specific expression at all, but the lady's voice remained steady, as if she didn't express any emotion about what she had just said.

Although Shen Qiu didn't want to follow the prime minister anymore to avoid getting into trouble, his most fatal secret had already been known by the young lady, so he could only nod and agree.

And the most important thing is that Shen Qiu is quite curious about why the prime minister wants to keep a mistress and children outside.

Wouldn't it be better to just marry her in? Every man has three wives and four concubines.

Now that he is the prime minister, he should not be afraid of being threatened by his wife's family.

Judging from the Prime Minister's appearance, he likes the mother and daughter very much. Why doesn't he give them a legitimate status?

Could it be that he wanted to wait until his wife died before bringing her in as his principal wife? !

impossible.

Anyway, he now feels that the young lady is quite pitiful, as neither her father nor her mother loves her.

What he remembered most clearly was that the young lady and the eldest master's carriage overturned, and they all ran to the eldest master's side. No one came to visit the young lady. It was only after the eldest master asked about it that the lady came. The master even waited until the young lady had a high fever before coming.

He specifically went to ask the doctor who was waiting in the eldest young master's room.

After she recovered from her illness for only a few days, the young lady went to learn some etiquette. Less than a day after she started learning etiquette, she went to the master to learn with the other young masters.

But what Shen Qiu didn't expect was that the young lady was forced to take classes in music, chess, calligraphy and painting after only one day.

I heard from other maids that the mistress was so cruel that she made the young lady learn all the arts of music, chess, calligraphy and painting in just one day!

In fact, I was going to continue studying with the master today, but the master went out, so the lady got a day to rest.

Shen Qiu didn't know whether he should be glad that the master had gone to find a mistress, giving the young lady a chance to catch her breath.

I was still angry that the master had an affair, and when the young lady found out, I don’t know how big a blow it would be to her.

You know, when Shen Qiu found out, he was also deeply shocked!

The better Prime Minister Mu's reputation has been over the years, the greater the blow Shen Qiu has suffered.

In everyone's eyes, he had achieved the transformation from a commoner to an important official in the court, and was the highest official in everyone's eyes.

Because other high-ranking officials all came from prominent families, Prime Minister Mu was particularly different.

He is loyal to the current emperor, loyal to his wife, and is a fair and honest person.

He is as gentle as jade, will not look down on ordinary people, and is consistent in his words and deeds.

And now the image of the prime minister in Shen Qiu's mind was completely shattered.

Ever since he caught a glimpse of the prime minister's expressionless face, he knew that the prime minister was not the perfect image in the minds of the people.

As long as you are human, you will have shortcomings.

But the prime minister appeared too perfect in front of outsiders, so perfect that people forgot that he was just a human being.

Shen Qiu left with a lot of thoughts in his mind. Of course, he had no intention of resting, but walked towards the outer room's mansion.

Dong Zhu saw that the young lady had not spoken since Shen Qiu left, and was a little worried about her. She wondered if she still cared about the mistress and the child who was the same age as her.

"Miss, I learned how to make osmanthus cake. How about I make some for you to try?"

Dong Zhu wanted to use this to divert the young lady's attention.

Mu Tangxi knew what Dong Zhu was thinking at a glance, but she didn't explain it. She just whispered, "Okay, I really want to eat something sweet."

Dong Zhu is full of fighting spirit. She wants to use her best condition to make the most delicious osmanthus cake for the young lady!

Mu Tangxi only needs to say a few words to make others work harder for her.

She didn't need to explain anything, just wait and accept what they gave her to comfort her.

why not.
