"Mu Hanyan, Mu Hanyan, I will never let him go!!!" In the fifth prince's mansion, the vase was shattered all over the floor, and the fifth prince clenched his fists and roared angrily.
Qu Fengting stood aside with his head bowed, still with a sad face.
"Cousin Fengting, I wronged you earlier." After smashing a few more vases, the fifth prince finally calmed down a little, and said to Qu Fengting.
Although there is a lot of resentment towards Qu Fengting in his heart, but he is such a confidant, so he can't be too chilling.
"Your Highness is serious. I really didn't think carefully about this matter. I didn't expect Mu Hanyan to have such a reputation after coming to the capital. He accidentally ruined His Highness's important affairs." Qu Fengting respectfully addressed the matter like a pug wagging his tail. Fifth Prince said.
It is impossible to say that he has no resentment towards the fifth prince, but without the support of the fifth prince, he has no place to stand in Anyun, so no matter how big the resentment is, he has to swallow it, and he cannot let the fifth prince see it. express his dissatisfaction.
"Forget it, I can't blame you." The fifth prince pretended to be magnanimous, waved his hand and said.
"Your Highness, what should we do next?" Qu Fengting asked.
Although each had resentment and was far away from the fifth prince, he knew that he and the fifth prince were grasshoppers on the same rope. If he wanted to gain a foothold in An Yun and seek Mu Hanyan's revenge for the past, he had to assist him with all his strength. Help him consolidate his position.
"I didn't expect Song Zhe and others to be so unbearable. It might be a bit difficult to count on them. I will accompany you back to Qu's family in the next few days. As long as you can establish a firm foothold for Qu's family, it will also be of great help to me." Five said the prince.
The reason why he brought Qu Fengting back to the capital was for the Qu family. As one of the eight great families, the Qu family's prestige is naturally not small. As long as he can help Qu Fengting gain a firm foothold in the Qu family, he will be able to compete for the throne in the future. A powerful chip.
"Relying on the Qu family alone may not be enough." Of course, Qu Fengting hoped that the fifth prince would get his wish, which would be a great thing for him, but he knew that even if he could really have a place in the clan, it would be a big deal if he wanted to help the fifth prince ascend the throne. Idiots talk about dreams.
"Well, those people like Song Zhe can't count on them. Let's try other families." He has some inextricable ties with the eight great families, and sometimes a single hair can affect the whole body.
Winning over more wealthy and famous families will not only greatly increase his prestige, but may also bring unexpected surprises.
"Yes, Your Highness." Although Qu Fengting was a little dissatisfied with the fifth prince, he also felt that his idea was good, so he responded emphatically.
…
Just as the fifth prince was plotting a major event with Qu Fengting, two furtive figures in the Mu residence were also plotting a major event.
"Second...Second Young Master, if the elders find out about doing this, it will be a death penalty." Mu Zhong, who had a horse face, turned pale and his whole body was shaking.
"What are you afraid of? God knows what you know and I know. Who will know if we don't tell?" Mu Chengyang was also trembling, but not because of fear, but because of excitement.
"But...but..." Mu Zhong felt his heart was about to jump out.
"But what a fart, the Supreme Elder is about to leave the seclusion, you hurry up, your benefit will be indispensable after this incident, dare mother-in-law, I will drive you out of the Zong family in a short while." Mu Chengyang looked nervously into the distance, said threateningly.
"Yes, yes, I'll go, I'll go right away." Mu Zhong gritted his teeth and jumped in from the courtyard wall.
"Mu Hanyan, this time I'm going to make you so confused that you'll never turn over again." Mu Chengyang said to himself with a sinister sneer at the corner of his mouth.
Soon, Mu Zhong jumped out, and the two hurried towards their own house.
…
As soon as he returned to Mu's house, Mu Hanyan realized that something was wrong.
Today's Mu Zhai was unusually deserted, and even the guard maid deliberately slowed down her steps, as if she was afraid of trampling ants to death.
Mu Hanyan originally wanted to stop someone from asking, but when she saw the fearful eyes of those maid guards looking at her, she dismissed the idea.
She is not unfamiliar with this kind of gaze. When Mu Tearyi's name first spread, the maids and maids in the Mu Mansion in Black Rock City also had the same gaze. Mu Hanyan didn't want to stretch out her hand and provoke another scream .
Her yard was already remote, and it became more and more deserted along the way. Just as he was approaching the gate of the courtyard, Mu Hanyan vaguely saw two figures leaving quickly in the distance.
This background seems familiar. There were still doubts in her heart, and Mu Hanyan didn't think too much about it.
"Om", the ancient bell rang for a long time, and the whole Mu Mansion suddenly became alive.
"Hey, what's going on?" Mu Hanyan asked in surprise.
"I know, it's the Supreme Elder who has left the customs!" Han Yuner said excitedly.
"The Supreme Elder leaving the customs?" Mu Hanyan looked at Han Yun'er suspiciously, not knowing why the Supreme Elder leaving the customs made such a big commotion.
"Brother Hanyan, you don't know that the Supreme Elder retreats all the year round, and he only leaves the retreat every few years. When he is in retreat, only the Patriarch and his direct disciples can visit him once in a while, and no one else can disturb him.
So every time the Supreme Elder leaves the customs, it is extremely grand, as long as the Mu family's children who are at home will go to see him, and the servants dare not make noise at will, so as not to make the old man angry. "Han Yuner explained.
"How come no one informed me about such a big matter?" Mu Hanyan said, a little suspicious in her heart, whether someone deliberately concealed the news to embarrass herself.
"The time when the elder Taishang leaves the customs is uncertain. Only two or three hours before he leaves the customs, there will be auspicious signs in the world. In addition, the elders do not like these red tapes, so they will not specifically inform others. Who is here? Anyone can go, and no one blames them if they can't catch up." Han Yuner explained to Mu Hanyan with a simple mind and didn't think about it being so complicated.
"Then should I go now?" Mu Hanyan asked.
Although she didn't have a good impression of the Third Elder's family, but the Supreme Elder's status in the Mu family was extremely high, so she couldn't be rude.
"Well... don't go, the Supreme Elder likes to be clean, and he is very strict with juniors. If you go now, he will probably say that you don't cultivate steadily and use your mind to opportunistically.
I remember a few years ago when the old man left the customs, Mr. Zexian was asking a court swordsman master about swordsmanship, and rushed back as soon as he heard the news, but he flattered the horse's leg and was severely beaten by the elder Taishang. He reprimanded him harshly, saying that he didn't know the importance, and that he missed such a good opportunity, it was clearly due to his evil intentions and it was difficult to become a master.
As a result, the five elders were all scolded, and they didn't care much about Mr. Zexian's affairs anymore. "Han Yuner thought for a while and said.
