Dong Hui finally returned to the Shi family.
As for Leng Yan, who caused a fuss in Dongyuan but disappeared on the night of the wedding, all the servants kept it secret.
It was as if this had never happened.
On the second day after Dong Hui returned home, a servant picked up the body of a maid from the well behind Shou'an Hall. It was identified as Rou'er, the maid who lived with Leng Yan.
He was dead inexplicably, his whole body was white and hot from the well water, and he looked very servile.
Gradually, word spread throughout the house that the room where Leng Yan and Rou'er lived had bad feng shui and was life-threatening, so the two people living there were killed and disappeared one after another.
The talk of ghosts was very popular in the government, but was soon replaced by other gossips.
"Qingxue, that Rou'er is..." Shi Baojing didn't expect that in just a few days, a living human life would be lost like this.
Although Mo Shujun claimed that it was just an accident, the sudden incident was still shocking. And how come no one else had an accident, but Rou'er had an accident
A terrible thought flashed through Shi Baojing's mind and he looked at Shi Qingxue nervously.
Shi Qingxue also had a serious face and a cold expression. After a while, she shook her head and said in a low voice: "I don't know. Even if...she won't leave any clues."
How could she forget that with Mo Shujun's temperament, she would definitely eradicate it.
Even if he can't hide his cold face, he will never let a small character like Rou'er betray him and still live well under his nose.
Mo Shujun has always been good at killing chickens to scare monkeys.
The disbelief on Shi Baojing's face still didn't disappear, and she said after a while: "It's impossible, isn't it? Rou'er doesn't know anything at all? How could grandma...
Isn't this too cruel? "
"What else can't she do to keep her most beloved son?"
Ever since Mo Shujun actually agreed to split up the family and go to Dong's house to pick up Dong Hui in order to keep Shi Juncai, Shi Qingxue had a new understanding of Mo Shujun's pampering.
For the sake of Shi Juncai, the eldest princess would give up any principle.
Shi Baojing wanted to retort, but after opening and closing her mouth for a long time, she could only make a meaningless sound of 'ah woo'.
After a long while, she finally sighed softly and said distressedly: "Even so, to kill someone for such a small life, even if Rou'er is just a maid, is it a bit too much?"
Although Shi Baojing is just a concubine, she knows how difficult it is to fight in the back house. A little more sympathy may lead to herself falling into an abyss of eternal destruction. How can she be soft-hearted
However, Mo Shujun does not need to be like this!
Rou'er's confession indeed confessed all of Mo Shujun's evil deeds, but the little evidence was too weak to bring down Mo Shujun.
The reason why Mo Shujun did so much was all for Shi Juncai!
"Tsk, great maternal love!"
Shi Qingxue smiled mockingly and commented coolly.
"Then do we need to do anything? After all, Grandma can harm Rou'er, so I'm afraid Leng Yan..." The reason why they are able to form a non-interference relationship with Shou'antang and Sanfang is all because they have control in their hands. With a cold face, that child is a good handle, and Mo Shujun must not be allowed to kill people.
Shi Qingxue rubbed Shi Baojing's shoulders, and finally showed a more relaxed smile, and said calmly: "You don't have to worry about this, there will definitely be no problem with the cold face. But now I have a more important task!"
"What?" Shi Baojing looked confused, and keenly caught a hint of calculation from Shi Qingxue's evil smile.
What other evil ideas does this girl have? ——
Mo Junhao handed over the greeting card and came to the Duke of Shi's Mansion in person to ask to see Mo Shujun.
This was very different from his previous secretive attitude.
Mo Shujun also felt strange, but in a sense, Mo Junhao was Shi Juncai's backer, so she still met him.
"Hao'er has met the eldest princess and wishes her well..."
Mo Junhao did not say his intentions at first, but politely greeted Mo Shujun and chatted with Mo Shujun.
While chatting, it seemed like they really just came to visit Mo Shujun.
While Mo Shujun was chatting and laughing with Mo Junhao, talking about the past and the present, she looked at Mo Junhao calmly, secretly wondering about the purpose of his coming here.
Just when Mo Shujun couldn't think of anything after thinking about it for a long time, she was really ready to treat the other party as someone to please her.
Mo Junhao suddenly said: "I heard that Duke Shi is planning to separate from his brother?"
Mo Shujun's dignified and serious expression froze, surprised and nervous, but soon returned to normal.
He denied it righteously, "Where did Hao'er hear the nonsense? I'm still alive and well, how could the family be separated? Don't let those boring people talk behind their backs and maliciously slander the Shi family!" "
Mo Shujun said it with seriousness on her face, she really wanted to do that.
But in his heart, he scolded the bastard who spread the word.
snort! It must be Shi Qingxue and the others who made this scandal known to everyone in order to force her to separate the family, as if they could get more benefits in this way.
"So, what Jun Hao heard were all false remarks?" Mo Junhao raised his eyebrows slightly.
He looked at Mo Shujun meaningfully.
Mo Shujun felt a little guilty and resisted not directly avoiding Mo Junhao's gaze, and gave an affirmative answer: "That's right."
The next second, Mo Junhao pretended to be surprised and said: "Huh? This is strange. Then why did the third master tell Jun Hao such a thing? Could it be that what the third master told me before was all Lie to me?"
"What?" Mo Shujun shouted out of control, her face no longer able to maintain its composure.
What a joke, she was holding on to this matter desperately, just because she didn't want it to hurt others anymore, but before she could do all this, Shi Juncai revealed the matter himself.
She was so angry!
Mo Shujun really wanted to take Shi Juncai out and beat him up immediately, but the actual conditions did not allow it.
Facing Mo Junhao's probing eyes again, Mo Shujun pretended to be calm and replied: "So what if we separate, I will live with Juncai, and with my blessing, Hao'er shouldn't even be willing to do this. Can you help Juncai?"
Speaking of which, Mo Shujun was too lazy to argue with Mo Junhaoxu and put out all the temptation conditions.
Indeed, Shi Junhe's net worth is very attractive, but isn't she a noble princess
Sooner or later, she will help Shi Juncai snatch the title of Duke Shi, and then her youngest son will be the most noble!
However, the conditions offered by Mo Shujun were really not enough for Mo Junhao.
He did not say it clearly, but spoke cautiously: "At that time, my father personally dismissed Third Master Shi from his official position. Even if my nephew wants to help, I'm afraid he can't do anything. Please forgive me, the eldest princess."
Although they were so familiar with each other, both of them knew that if Mo Junhao really wanted to help Shi Juncai, it would be trivial for him to be reinstated.
Mo Shujun glared in displeasure and hummed in a cold voice: "Since you call Juncai 'Third Master', how can he be considered your elder? Is this your attitude towards your elders?"
Faced with Mo Shujun's "powerful pressure", Mo Junhao only sipped his lips and did not answer. However, this silent attitude made Mo Shujun even more helpless.
after all…
If Mo Junhao is really unwilling, she can't force Mo Junhao to agree with a gun, right
"Hmph! Don't you just think that Juncai will have no future without the backing of Duke Shiguo's Mansion?"
Mo Shujun accurately stated what Mo Junhao was most worried about. Seeing that the other person did not let go, she hummed: "People often say that things are impermanent. I don't know who will be more capable in the future!"
Mo Junhao paused and then showed a gentle smile to Mo Shujun.
Then he said slowly: "Don't be angry, Princess. It's not that Jun Hao is unwilling to help Third Master, it's just..."
When Mo Shujun heard what Mo Junhao said, she immediately understood: The other party is beginning to want benefits!
She scolded Mo Junhao in her heart, but after thinking about it, she suddenly said: "I have received a piece of news that is absolutely unexpected by you. Even many people have no way of knowing it, but it is related to the future of the throne." The secret of such an important matter as whose family it falls into."
"What?" Mo Junhao's expression tightened and he stared at Mo Shujun.
Immediately, he slowed down his attitude and said slowly: "Jun Hao knows the eldest princess's love as a mother, but..."
"What? Do you think I lied to you on purpose in order to help Juncai?" Mo Shujun sneered and revealed Mo Junhao's thoughts to the point.
Mo Junhao's big tail fell silent.
Mo Shujun was even less anxious than him, and even issued an eviction order directly and coldly: "Since you don't believe me, I have nothing to say. Your Highness, please come back!"
They even called out Mo Junhao's honorific title and started to chase people away.
This confident look on his face caused Mo Junhao to think deeply: Maybe Mo Shujun really knows some secrets that he said he didn't know
Thinking of this, Mo Junhao immediately softened his attitude and showed a flattering smile to Mo Shujun.
But he didn't say it directly, but mentioned other things lightly: "I heard that the eldest princess asked her father for a marriage a few days ago?"
Mo Shujun didn't expect that she had just found Mo Xiangbin. Mo Xiangbin hadn't even agreed whether he would agree to let her point out Shi Baoyou to Mo Junhao as the fourth prince's concubine, and Mo Junhao would get the news
Tsk, you are indeed well informed.
"So what?" Although Mo Shujun was frightened, she did not relax her mouth.
Instead, he said coldly: "Could it be that you still want to tell me that you are not even willing to be responsible for Baoyou now?"
Mo Junhao did not dare to offend Mo Shujun and quickly replied: "Of course not. Jun Hao once promised to marry Baoyou, and he will definitely not break his promise. Now the eldest princess's move has fulfilled a major event for Jun Hao!"
"Hmph!" Mo Shujun had just been 'reprimanded' by Mo Junhao, and she was feeling unhappy. She snorted coldly and turned her face away.
Mo Junhao continued to say: "When Baoyou becomes my nephew's concubine, then the third master will be my nephew's father-in-law. Then it will be logical for my nephew to go to his father to plead for his mercy."
When the other party mentioned Shi Juncai, Mo Shujun finally felt a little heartbroken. She turned her face and said lightly: "So, you are really willing to help Cai'er."
Mo Junhao smiled and said something completely different from his previous attitude: "We are all a family, so we should naturally support each other. Do you think this is true?"
The steps were handed to him, and Mo Shujun walked down the steps.
Nodding, he replied: "That's why we are all one family."
"In this case, what you just said..." Mo Junhao's expression tightened and he couldn't wait to ask.
He had a hunch that the secret Mo Shujun was about to tell would be far more shocking than he imagined!
