Family affection? Is it important to have rights?
Chapter 284 The Prime Minister’s Scheme
Mu Tangxi held Jinjin, who was getting heavier and heavier. Her fur was shiny and her eyes were bright and lively. It was obvious that she had been well taken care of in the past few days.
She scratched Jinjin's chin with her fingertips while watching Dongzhu packing her things.
Just as her eyelids were half closed and she was about to take a nap.
Ji Qichen ran in in a hurry, but when he saw Tangxi was resting, he subconsciously slowed down his steps.
He even walked slowly towards the chair next to Tangxi.
Mu Tangxi opened her eyes and looked at Ji Qichen. She knew he was coming as soon as she heard the messy footsteps.
I wanted to wait for Ji Qichen to speak first, but he just stopped talking.
"What were you rushing about just now?"
Ji Qichen seemed to be reminded and suddenly remembered what he wanted to say to Tangxi just now.
"Tangxi, I was just watching the fun, no, when I went out to buy something, I heard that the Prime Minister's wife was seriously ill and the Prime Minister also took a leave of absence."
Mu Tangxi:?
What's going on?
She was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said, "Qi Chen, we will leave with the troops escorting grain and grass tomorrow. Before we leave, I want to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to see my parents. Are you willing to accompany me?"
Ji Qichen gladly accepted Tangxi's invitation.
Come on, there is such a ready-made excitement, who wouldn’t want to go and watch it!
Besides, Tangxi has no feelings for the Prime Minister's Mansion, so there is no need to avoid suspicion.
Mu Tangxi touched Jinjin for the last time, and then handed the raccoon to the maid next to her.
"Let's go and watch the heat..."
Mu Tangxi spoke too quickly and was almost taken away by Ji Qichen.
She was silent for a moment, then changed the subject as if nothing had happened, "To visit my mother."
A smile flashed in Dongzhu's eyes.
Ji Qichen nodded quickly and asked the servant to pack up a few cakes.
Later I can watch and eat at the same time.
Mu Tangxi had no intention of stopping him. She waited patiently until Ji Qichen brought the pastries before getting on the carriage together.
But they didn't expect to run into the second prince at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
The two groups looked at each other, the atmosphere stagnated for a moment, and then the two groups almost simultaneously pulled the corners of their mouths and revealed a polite smile.
"What a coincidence, I actually met my second brother at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion."
"I also think it's a coincidence that you came to the Prime Minister's Mansion at this time."
The second prince and the third prince were being polite to each other with very fake smiles.
After saying this, they walked towards the Prime Minister's Mansion together.
Mu Tangxi deliberately slowed down her pace and looked at the figure of the Second Prince. She had heard about what happened that day from Ji Qichen.
My father is so amazing. Even if he is a little short of time, he can still make a perfect plan.
Without attracting anyone's attention, the disaster was directly thrown on Pan Qingkong's head.
This plan is very beautiful.
To be honest, it is very difficult to find someone who has a motive, time and tools to commit the crime in a short period of time.
But my father had thought about it beforehand and even selected a few people who were capable of killing Mu Lianxue.
Then after careful selection, they chose Pan Qingkong as the murderer.
The kitchen knife inlaid with gems must have been chosen by my father.
My father really had a bad taste and deliberately chose a kitchen knife as the murder weapon.
The three of them came to Mu Wenyu together.
Mu Wenyu smiled gently as always and asked the maid to serve tea.
Just as he opened his mouth to ask why they came here, he caught a glimpse of the third prince out of the corner of his eye.
Ji Qichen didn't cross his legs this time, after all, he was Tangxi's father, but he took out some pastries from his sleeves and ate them!
The second prince simply ignored the third prince's actions.
He has figured it out in the past few days. As long as he pretends that the Third Prince doesn't exist, he won't be angry.
Anyway, there is no need to care too much about someone who is going to die sooner or later.
But Mu Wenyu was still very surprised as it was the first time he saw the third prince behave so impolitely.
He looked towards Tangxi, and what he got was Tangxi's innocent and confused look.
After his father withdrew his gaze, Mu Tangxi looked at Ji Qichen, staring at him quietly with bright eyes.
Ji Qichen took the oil-paper bag and handed it over.
Mu Tangxi narrowed her eyes and chose a piece of pastry with the best shape.
Even though the Second Prince kept telling him to ignore it, he just couldn't ignore it!
And the air was filled with the aroma of pastries, how could he ignore it?!
He never expected that Miss Mu, who looked like a typical lady from a noble family, would actually eat pastries like the Third Prince?
Was she infected by the third prince?
Mu Wenyu, who had the same idea as the second prince, thought so too.
Where is his well-behaved, sensible and generous daughter? !
How come she became like a different person after marrying the third prince?
It must be the Third Prince who led Tangxi astray!
Mu Wenyu was silent for a moment, then turned to look at the Second Prince, "I wonder why the Second Prince is here?"
The second prince also turned his head and stopped paying attention to the two arrogant people. He said, "I came here because of the death of the concubine. I never thought that the concubine would lose her life just because she went out."
"..."
Ji Qichen and Mu Tangxi listened while slowly sipping their cakes and drinking their tea.
This was completely different from the usual time when they ate cakes in their own residence.
Eating here makes the pastries more fragrant.
Mu Wenyu found an excuse and asked Mu Tangxi to go see his wife and get her out of the way.
Otherwise he really couldn't bear it anymore.
These two people don't look serious at all.
Suddenly I feel that the possibility of the third prince ascending the throne is even lower.
He still needs to have a good discussion with the Second Prince.
The Second Prince was also dragged into the matter of Mu Lianxue's death because he couldn't let others suspect him.
After all, they are allied.
Pan Qingkong is the prince's man. He is also the most beloved son of the Minister of War, and his only son.
Pan Qingkong was thrown into prison and executed on the same day.
The Minister of War does not dare to blame Your Majesty, so he can only blame the Crown Prince.
The prince was at the scene that day, why didn't he plead for his son?
Mu Wenyu could even guess the Minister of War's thoughts.
After this incident, the Crown Prince broke with the Minister of War, and it was time to win over the Minister of War.
But it’s not possible now, it will take a few days.
Only after Pan Qingkong is beheaded can the Second Prince try to win him over, in the name of revenge for the Crown Prince and for Master Pan.
If they go now, won't the Minister of War ask them to rescue Pan Qingkong?
This is not okay.
If Pan Qingkong hadn't died, how could the Minister of War have the determination to take revenge on the Crown Prince?
He must be pushed.
When faced with the decision to kill his enemy, the Minister of War would not suddenly change his mind before the battle.
and……
After all, Pan Qingkong is not the real murderer of "Mu Lianxue". If he lives one more day, there are too many uncertain factors.
There was indifference in Mu Wenyu's eyes, but a smile on his lips. He was thinking about this matter at the same time while exchanging words with the Second Prince.
