Destroy the scumbag husband, beat the bitch, the reborn legitimate daughter overturns the entire cap

Mu Xin Nuan didn't know how she got back to the Mu residence. When she woke up again, she was already in her own Yue Xuan.

He seemed to have been awakened by Li's soft sobbing. He opened his eyes groggily and whispered, "Mother?"

As Li was wiping away her tears with a handkerchief, she saw that her daughter on the bed was awake and immediately smiled through her tears, "Anuan is awake?"

When Mu Xin Nuan saw that there were Granny Yu, Rong Yue and others in the room, looking at her with great concern, she quickly forced a smile and tried to comfort them.

"Mother, how did I end up in the manor? I remember I was on the street when I encountered an assassin, and then I met Brother Chu Rong."

Madam Li smiled, "Yes, this time, we owe it all to Chu Rong. If it weren't for him, you might be..." As Madam Li spoke, her eyes welled up with tears, which fell in a steady stream.

"Anuan, this time, we must thank Chu Rong properly, and also General Chu. Once you're feeling better, we'll go to the Chu residence to express our gratitude."

"Hmm. Mother, where is my second brother? And how did I end up back at the Mu residence?"

Rongyue stepped forward and said, "Miss, the Second Young Master is alright. He said that thanks to your protection, he wasn't hurt at all! But you were so frightened and almost got hurt that you fainted. It was Young Master Chu who brought you back."

"Oh." Mu Xin Nuan nodded, then realized something was wrong and quickly looked at Mu Qing. Seeing that Mu Qing was also secretly smiling, Mu Xin Nuan realized what was going on and her face turned red with embarrassment.

"Your Excellency, Master has arrived with his two sons, General Chu, and Young Master Chu. What do you think?"

"Quickly tidy this up. Granny Yu, go wait outside. Rongyue, go prepare tea."

"Yes, ma'am."

Mu Xin Nuan tried to get up, but Li Shi pressed her down, saying, "Lie down quickly. Young Master Chu is no stranger to us, it's alright."

Not an outsider? Why does that sound a little awkward?

General Chu brought Chu Rong in and spoke with Mu Xin Nuan for a while. Mu Chang An then led General Chu outside to sit down, while the two brothers, Chu Rong and Mu Qing Xuan, stayed to keep her company.

"Is Ah Nuan feeling any better?" Chu Rong's worry was evident in his eyes.

Mu Xin Nuan nodded, "Thank you, Brother Chu Rong, for making you worry." Then, she glanced at Mu Qing Xuan, "When did you return, A Xuan? Did you encounter any assassins?"

Mu Qingxuan shook his head. "No! We heard that there were assassins on a street, and my cousin was worried it was you, so he took us there. But by the time we got there, most of the assassins had already been killed! Only a few remained, and they were subdued by Brother Chu Rong's men. Now, I heard they've been sent to the Jingzhao Prefecture."

"Even under the emperor's nose, there are still such wicked people, doing whatever they want, they have absolutely no respect for the law!" Upon hearing this, Chu Rong was furious.

"Luckily, we met Chu Rong. It's all thanks to you. I heard from Mu Qing that if you hadn't arrived in time, my A Nuan might have been..."

Mu Qingyuan finally couldn't hold back anymore and started to cry. While wiping away tears with her sleeve, she said to Mu Xinnuan on the bed, "Sister, it's all my fault! If you hadn't been protecting me, you wouldn't have been scared! It's all my fault."

Mu Qingxuan glared at him, "You know that's good! As a man, why are you crying? If you don't want your sister to be frightened again, then practice your martial arts properly! If you want to protect your sister, you have to protect yourself first!"

Mu Xin Nuan immediately nodded approvingly at Mu Qing Xuan, "Ah Xuan is right, Ah Yuan did extremely well today! At least, when those assassins came, you didn't cry or get scared! You didn't hold your sister back, did you?"

Mu Qingyuan nodded with tears in his eyes, "Yes! I didn't hold my sister back. I didn't cry then! Brother, believe me, I really didn't cry then!"

As she spoke, she tugged at Mu Qingxuan's sleeve, seemingly wanting a word of affirmation from him.

Mu Qingxuan snorted coldly, "Although you didn't cry, you still needed your older sister, who is a woman, to protect you! That doesn't make you a real man!"

These words were a devastating blow to Mu Qingyuan!

Mu Xin Nuan smiled helplessly, "Alright! Ah Xuan, don't talk about him like that. He's still young. He's a year younger than you. Besides, his performance today was already excellent among children his age!" As she spoke, Mu Qing helped her sit up, "A Yuan, come here to your sister."

Mu Qingyuan was always attached to her, so when he heard her call out, he naturally rushed over. "Sister, are you still feeling anxious? Brother Chu Rong said you were too nervous, and when you saw there was hope, you suddenly felt relieved, which is why you fainted. But when you wake up, you might have heart palpitations."

Mu Xin Nuan looked up and saw that Chu Rong's expression was rather uneasy, so she smiled and said, "I'm fine. I'm all better now."

"Mother, as soon as my two cousins ​​heard that my sister was alright, they went straight back to the Zhenguo General's Mansion. They said that my uncle and grandfather should submit a memorial together, demanding that the murderer be severely punished."

Mu Xin Nuan was surprised. She had expected her two cousins' reactions, but she hadn't anticipated that Ah Xuan's attitude would be so firm. Perhaps her risky actions this time had really frightened him.

Madam Li nodded, her face also turning cold. "I just wonder if we can find out who the mastermind behind those people is?"

"Mother, don't worry. The assassins have been caught red-handed, and finding the mastermind behind them is a piece of cake! Moreover, to prevent anyone from silencing the assassins, Brother Chu Rong specially asked Uncle Chu to go and intimidate the Prefect of the Capital."

Chu Rong said somewhat embarrassedly, "This whole thing was originally aimed at Sister Nuan. Moreover, I've had people ask around, and quite a few people overheard the conversation between the assassins and the people in the shadows. Actually, Father is right. Given the current situation, I'm afraid no one will be in a hurry to take the lives of those assassins."

"You mean, since everything has already been exposed, it's too late for Song Tao to find a backer?"

“Exactly! Even if the Crown Prince wants to protect Song Zhaoxun, this incident happened in public, and there were so many witnesses. Killing these assassins would be futile and would only damage the Crown Prince’s reputation.”

Mu Xin Nuan nodded in agreement, "That's right! I did hear someone talking to the assassin at the time, saying not to hurt A Yuan, and that A Yuan wasn't their target. I was a little puzzled at the time, wondering how this could have happened. But I quickly realized that the people they wanted to kill were me and A Xuan. At the time, I was actually glad that A Xuan got into my cousin's carriage. Otherwise..."

Upon hearing this, Mu Qingyuan's face turned ashen!
