"I won. It was agreed that the loser will be responsible for tonight's dinner." Mu Qingge's eyes were as crescent-shaped as he smiled and said to Yin Chen.
Yin Chen nodded with a smile and cooperated with her acting: "As long as you can eat the food I cook, I will be happy to serve you."
Well…
The food cooked by Yin Chen... can be described as dark cuisine.
Mu Qingge twitched the corner of her mouth and said sarcastically: "Forget it."
Then, she told Yin Chen: "The Emperor and Princess are visiting, go and prepare tea."
Yin Chen retreated as instructed.
Mu Qingge then looked at God Emperor Wuhua and Chu Nian, and said with a smile: "Although I am a guest, I live here after all. You two come to see me, so I won't be rude. If there is a place where you overwhelm the guests and take over the host, Please forgive me the God Emperor and Princess."
"You're welcome, Emperor Mu Xiao." Emperor Wuhua looked at Mu Qingge and said calmly.
It seemed that he wanted to see if Mu Qingge showed any signs of injury.
His previous blow, although it made people run away, was 100% likely to cause injuries, and it would definitely be serious injuries. Therefore, if Mu Qingge was really the person lurking in the Divine Palace just now, he would not be so nonchalant.
But what about now
Emperor Wuhua looked at Mu Qingge.
She always had a smile on her face, her expression was natural, and her face was not ugly. Even... there was no smell of blood on her body or in the room.
Isn't it him
Emperor Wuhua secretly thought in his heart.
However, if it wasn't Mu Qingge, who would it be
"God Emperor Mu Xiao, I will get straight to the point. I came here this time because I just lost something." God Emperor Wuhua said.
Every time he said a word, he was paying attention to the changes in Mu Qingge's expression.
However, Mu Qingge did not show anything suspicious except being curious and patiently waiting for his next words.
The eyes of Emperor Wuhua changed a little, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
He continued: "This lost thing is related to the Mu clan. Therefore, I suspect that it is the remnants of the Mu clan who have sneaked into Wuhua Palace."
Mu Qingge blinked and was stunned.
There was no other emotion in her eyes except confusion and confusion. Emperor Wuhua felt no guilt, panic, or dodge in anticipation.
Chu Nian looked at Mu Qingge worriedly, and she naturally believed in Mu Qingge.
Suddenly, Mu Qingge showed an expression of realization, nodded and said: "I understand! So, God Emperor Wuhua came here not to see me, but to suspect that I am the thief who stole things, right? Just because, My surname is Mu?"
"Not bad." Emperor Wuhua said bluntly.
"Where's the evidence?" Mu Qingge spread his hands, his eyes clear and open. "It is said that catching a thief takes away the stolen goods. My surname has been extremely sensitive since I first ascended to the Divine Continent. However, I am an open and honest person, so why would I change my name because of a guilty conscience just for this matter? So? , I can understand why the Emperor doubts me. But, there must be evidence, right?"
'evidence! Hum, if this emperor had evidence, he would have locked you up and tortured you long ago. 'The Emperor Wuhua said in his heart.
"By saying this, Divine Emperor Mu Xiao means that that person is not you?" Divine Emperor Wuhua said faintly.
"Of course not me." Mu Qingge said confidently.
Her eyes were as sincere as she wanted to be.
"Oh? Since it's not Emperor Mu Xiao, then I wonder if God Emperor Mu Xiao has any suspicious candidates in mind?" Emperor Wuhua asked again.
Mu Qingge was stunned for a moment.
At this time, Yin Chen came in with tea.
In fact, the tea was also prepared by the servant in the side hall, but he just turned his hand.
After he put down the tea, he stood beside Mu Qingge, silently.
"God Emperor, this question of yours stumps me. I was so drunk at yesterday's birthday party that I don't know why I came back. I slept in a daze this morning, and when Princess Chu Nian came to my door, I realized that someone had broken in at night. The Palace of the God. Since then, I have been obeying the princess's orders and stayed here without going anywhere. Then the God Emperor came to visit." Mu Qingge said with an innocent face.
Mu Qingge left yesterday in full view of everyone.
And today…
Emperor Wuhua turned to look at Chu Nian.
After first understanding, he immediately nodded and said: "Father, when I came this morning, the little God Emperor had just woken up."
His daughter's confirmation, as well as Mu Qingge's righteous words and lack of guilt, made Emperor Wuhua start to think. 'Is it really not him? '
"The person who just stole the things used his spiritual consciousness, so even if the people who admire the little God Emperor don't leave here, they can still do it." God Emperor Wuhua still insisted.
Mu Qingge showed a helpless expression and said to him: "God Emperor, I know that I am innocent. You doubt me only because of my surname. It seems that if I don't help God Emperor catch this Wuhua infiltrator Thief of the domain, you will never believe my innocence."
"You want to help me catch someone?" God Emperor Wuhua narrowed his eyes. He didn't seem to expect that she would say this.
Even Chu Nian was shocked.
Mu Qingge nodded and said calmly: "Yes! Since the God Emperor doesn't believe me, then I have no choice but to seize the real murderer to prove my innocence."
Seeing her flawless expression, Emperor Wuhua began to hesitate.
After a while, Chu Nian whispered to him: "Father, this is not a bad idea."
Emperor Wuhua nodded slowly.
He looked at Mu Qingge again, "Okay, I will give you this opportunity. As long as you find the second more suspicious person, I will withdraw all doubts about you today."
Mu Qingge smiled slightly, clasped his fists and said, "I have been in Wuhua Territory for a few days, and I have been taken care of by the God Emperor and the princess. Now that Qingge is useful, naturally he has to do the hard work of dogs and horses."
"Okay, then tell me what you have in mind and how to catch the real remnants of the Mu clan!" Emperor Wuhua's eyes narrowed dangerously.
"Um..." Mu Qingge frowned slightly, pretending to ask, then raised his head, looked at Chu Nian and asked: "Princess, I wonder what the results of the investigation will be now?"
Chu thought: "When he found someone breaking in, my father immediately ordered all the mountain gates to be closed, and all the birthday guests were temporarily staying in Wuhua Palace. Therefore, the thief must not have left, and with today's sneak attack, he must still be there. In Wuhua Palace. We have re-verified everyone’s identities, but we have found nothing yet.”
She also had a headache about this matter and didn't know where to start investigating.
After listening to this, Mu Qingge nodded thoughtfully, touched his chin, and said slowly: "Suppose, if I were a remnant of the Mu clan and wanted to sneak into this Wuhua Palace, I would definitely not use my own Originally, his life and even his identity were fake. Moreover, if he deliberately planned to come in like this, it can only be said that he had planned it for a long time and was not a temporary act. Therefore, it is really not of much use to start with identity verification. "
After speaking, she curled her lips and shook her head slowly.
"What you said makes sense." Chu Nian's eyes lit up and he listened very seriously.
Emperor Wuhua also fell silent, staring at Mu Qingge, waiting for her next words.
Mu Qingge looked at the two men again and continued: "Since they sneaked into Wuhua Palace, it means that they were in Wuhua City before entering."
Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she said to Chu Nian and Wuhua Divine Emperor: "I suggest that we start the investigation from Wuhua City first. As for the people in Wuhua Palace, they only need to be placed under house arrest, and their every move will be closely monitored and they will not be allowed to leave. That’s it.”
"Continue." Wuhua Divine Emperor said.
"God Emperor, this is what I think. Since there is no problem with identity verification, and it is concluded that the remnants of the Mu clan are really among them, there is only one possibility. They have stolen the identities of those who come to pay homage to their birthdays. And all those who come to pay homage to their birthdays People will come to Wuhua City first. Just go and check carefully to see if anything strange happened in Wuhua City in the past few days, such as someone missing or dying. As long as we find the person, we will know , whose identity has been impersonated. Will it soon be clear who is wearing that identity in Wuhua Palace? Also, the people in Wuhua Palace are only under house arrest without censorship. Such inaction will make people feel guilty. People with ghosts can't stand it anymore and want to escape. As long as they move, their flaws will be exposed." Mu Qingge provided the method very responsibly.
Chu Nian's eyes became brighter and brighter when he heard it, and the suspicion in the eyes of Emperor Wuhua when he looked at Mu Qingge gradually faded away.
Because, in my cognition, no thief would work so hard and diligently to catch the thief. And the analysis is very reasonable and does not look like a deliberate trap.
"Also, have any of the people from Wuhua Territory fought against that thief? Can you remember his appearance, body shape, etc." Mu Qingge asked curiously.
Emperor Wuhua didn't speak, and Chu Nian explained on his behalf. "He fought with the guards for a very short time, and the strength was very different. They only remembered the general outline, but could not tell a reason. However, I can be sure that he had support and at least two accomplices."
In my first thought, I have not forgotten the three figures that flashed past when I rushed over.
"This is going to be difficult." Mu Qingge frowned and said, "I also thought that if the guard remembers the other person's appearance, he can always find it by drawing it and comparing it one by one."
"Hmph, if the method you mentioned is effective, wouldn't this emperor have thought of it?" God Emperor Wuhua said coldly.
Mu Qingge immediately grinned, "I'm the one who said too much. The God Emperor is wise and powerful, so he has naturally thought of it a long time ago."
Emperor Wuhua stared at Mu Qingge and took a deep look. Suddenly he turned around and left with his first thought.
After walking out of the side hall, he said to Chu Nian: "Follow what he said. I want to see how many remnants of the Mu clan have sneaked into my Wuhua Domain."
"Yes, father." Chu Nian nodded.
But she asked worriedly, "What about my father's suspicion of Emperor Mu..."
The eyes of Emperor Wuhua changed a few times, and he said something with unclear meaning, "That's it for the time being."
"God Emperor, Princess." At this time, Yin Chen suddenly caught up from behind. When he turned his eyes at the first thought, he said: "Speaking of suspicious people, I remembered that on the day I first entered Wuhua City, I did see a few suspicious people on the street."
Let’s stop here first... Don’t worry, things are not finished yet... Let’s continue at noon...
