If Qing Mo had told her, she wouldn't have looked so uncertain.

But if I didn't tell her, how would she know?

Qingyun originally thought that she was being too sentimental and that was why she felt embarrassed.

Now that her master also thinks this is the case, she becomes more generous instead.

He sighed and said, "I didn't know at first, but the way he looked at people was so strange, as if he wanted to eat them."

Mu Yunyao looked at her silly look and laughed.

"Then do you like him? If you like her too, I can prepare a dowry for you."

Mu Yunyao really likes this little girl.

When Qingyun heard this, her face puffed up into a small bun.

"I don't know either. He used to train us so hard. He always beat us to death. I hated him so much.

It feels so weird to say he likes me now."

Qingyun was still caught up in her own emotions and had no idea what she had said.

When Mu Yunyao heard this, her expression changed again and again.

But in the end I chose to say nothing.

There were some things that she still hoped Xiao Qianmo would tell her in person; she didn't like hearing things from other people.

She also knew Xiao Qianmo's situation. Unlike what others saw, he needed more trump cards to protect himself.

To be honest, she was only surprised for a moment, and soon figured it out.

It was just that Mu Yunyao felt a little ashamed because of her performance between his two identities.

Mu Yunyao shook her head, getting rid of those thoughts.

Then he looked at Qingyun seriously.

"I still say the same thing, if you are interested, I can help you and prepare a dowry for you.

But now let’s get down to business.”

When Qingyun heard this, he came back to his senses instantly.

"Yes, Master, please give your orders."

Mu Yunyao was amused by her sudden seriousness.

Looking at her expression again, Mu Yunyao immediately realized that she was trying to cover up her embarrassment.

"Have someone prepare for the trip as soon as possible. We may have to leave early."

Qingyun was a little confused as they had just returned from outside.

Even if the master wants to go on a diplomatic mission to the Queen's Kingdom to attend the birthday celebration of the old king of the Queen's Kingdom, he doesn't have to leave Beijing so early.

There is still some time before the birthday of the old king of the Queen's Kingdom, so they can at least stay in the capital for another month.

The Ministry of Rites also needs time to prepare gifts.

Mu Yunyao shook her head and said, "I can't wait any longer."

Qingyun was a little confused, "What do you mean you can't wait?"

Mu Yunyao smiled and glanced at Old Madam Mu's yard.

"Some people can't wait."

If she didn't leave Beijing now, as the legitimate granddaughter of the old woman, she would have to stay in Beijing and wear mourning clothes for her even if something terrible happened.

Part of her didn't want to keep vigil for the old lady, but the other part was that she didn't think their relationship was worth her delaying her search for her mother because of the old lady.

Qingyun also knew something about it. The old lady fell ill just after the master came back. She originally thought that those people did it on purpose to give the master a reputation of being unlucky in marriage.

But I didn't expect that person to be so cruel.

Qingyun took a breath and asked in disbelief.

"Is that man really that cruel?"

Mu Yunyao smiled and said, "Is there any better reason to leave the capital than to escort the coffin back to the hometown?"

This is undoubtedly the most reasonable and unstoppable way for Mu Jinnian to escape.

And he's already doing it, isn't he? Otherwise the old lady wouldn't have gotten sick so quickly.

She even suspected that the old lady's rosy face was caused by something he gave her.

Qingyun thought about it and felt that what her master said made sense.

"Master, would you like me to have someone bring the old lady's medicine residue over to you for you to see?"

Mu Yunyao shook her head. "It's probably not medicine."

Back then, he was able to cooperate with the King of the Southwest and replace her mother without anyone noticing. Ordinary medicine could not be hidden from the eyes of the imperial physician.

The most likely thing used is Gu.

Since Mu Jinnian had already colluded with the King of Southwest, it was not difficult to get the poisonous insect.

She also happened to know that there are some poisonous insects that can bring people back to life, but this kind of poison needs to be fed by the flesh and blood of loved ones.

And once that person dies, the other person will soon die as well.

And Mu Jinnian has this condition, doesn’t he?

Mu Jinshun is in his hands, and that man is Old Lady Mu’s biological son.

He cheated on Mu Jinnian, so it is not impossible that Mu Jinnian used his flesh and blood to prolong the life of Old Lady Mu.

I'm afraid that even if Old Lady Mu knew, she wouldn't stop it. That old lady is an extremely selfish person.

Every choice she made was actually for herself.

Just like back then, she abandoned Mu Jinshun and chose Mu Jinnian, just because Mu Jinnian was more talented in studying than Mu Jinshun.

And keeping Mu Jinnian and her reputation would be better.

Qingyun knew why her master had volunteered to go on a diplomatic mission to the Queen's Kingdom, so it was natural that she would not be delayed by the messy affairs of the Mu family.

Thinking of this, Qingyun hurriedly said, "I will ask someone to keep an eye on the old lady. She will not be allowed to die before the master leaves the capital."

Mu Yunyao nodded.

"Go ahead, be careful, don't let anyone notice anything, or they'll become desperate and do something."

"Yes, master."

After Qingyun left, Mu Yunyao started thinking about Xiao Qianmo again.

Xiao Qianmo and Xiao Qianyi, these two names are so similar, why didn't she think of it before.

Qianxue Tower helped her several times for no reason, but she never thought about it in this way. She originally thought that Qianxue Tower helped her out of her mother's kindness.

Only now did I realize that the person who had a good relationship with her mother was the previous owner of the WordPress. If there were no other reasons, who would be so dedicated and hardworking?

Aren’t Qingyun and Xingchen the biggest flaws?

Xiao Qianmo is such a careful person, how could he allow someone else to stay around him?

Mu Yunyao couldn't help but sigh.

It is said that those who are involved in the situation are often the most confused. This is absolutely true. Once you step out of this situation, some things become easy to understand.

Although it is a bit embarrassing to talk about this, and there are more than one people who know about it.

But she really never blamed Xiao Qianmo. After all, no matter what his identity was, he had never done anything to let her down, right?

With a sigh, Mu Yunyao decided to put the matter aside for the time being and find her mother first.

Things turned out pretty much as Mu Yunyao had expected. Mu Jinnian really didn't plan to let Old Lady Mu live much longer.

Even though she was well prepared, she still almost couldn't leave the capital.

Fortunately, she told Xiao Qianmo her guess early on, and with him and the prince keeping an eye on it, the people in the Ministry of Rites couldn't help but take it seriously.

On the third day after she left the capital, the old lady of the Mu family passed away.

Her memorial about Mu Jinnian's collusion with the King of Southwest and his matricide was also placed on the emperor's desk.
