The legitimate daughter returns, and the princess goes crazy

Mu Yan's eyes moved slightly and a slight smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. Si Yao was the Holy Maiden of Dongfan after all, and she represented the entire Dongfan Kingdom. If they wanted to convict her, they would need to put a big event on her, and it had to be an event that shocked the people of the capital.

She looked at Duke Qi and asked, "I would like to ask, is this year's top scholar, Yi Chengzhou, related to Duke Qi?"

The Duke of Qi was slightly startled, but quickly regained his composure.

After all, Mu Yan was able to find out that he had already defected to King Wei, so it was not surprising that she knew about it.

He smiled and said, "You little girl know a lot."

Mu Yan smiled awkwardly. In fact, it was not that she had supernatural powers, but she had already known these two things in her previous life.

Duke Qi continued, "Chengzhou's father was once my subordinate, but he died in the battlefield. Over the years, I have sent people to take care of him and his son, so he still respects me."

Then he changed the subject and asked, "What does Cheng Zhou have to do with this matter?"

Mu Yan frowned and continued, "You should have heard about the murder of the second young lady of the Yi family some time ago."

Duke Qi nodded, because this matter was not as simple as the death of one person. The important thing was that the murderer's method was extremely cruel. Not only that, he also threw the body parts in the downtown area openly.

This incident caused panic among the people in the capital and implicated many people.

Until now, the murderer has not been found, so everyone in the court, from civil to military, knows about it.

Mu Yan continued, "The real murderer behind this incident is the Saint of Dongfan."

Yi Chengzhou is the new top scholar. Although he is very talented, his ability to handle affairs is also outstanding.

But he is not only ruthless and impartial, but also very difficult to deal with. If someone is targeted by him, he will have to be very careful in the future. Many court officials are unwilling to deal with such a person.

Even if Si Yao wanted to frame her, why did she choose Yi Chengzhou's sister? Even if she chose randomly, she would not choose a girl from an official family.

There is only one reason, and that is revenge.

Yi Chengzhou is now the Shaoqing of the Honglu Temple, specializing in handling diplomatic affairs.

There was a severe drought in Dongfan this year. It should have been harvest season, but the people had nothing to harvest.

At this time, southern Xinjiang sent troops to invade the border, so the Emperor of Dongfan wrote to the Emperor of Northern Qi, asking Northern Qi to borrow military supplies in advance.

However, Northern Qi was adjacent to Eastern Fan, and the extreme weather in Eastern Fan also affected Northern Qi. Although it was not as serious as in Eastern Fan, the national harvest was only two-thirds of that in previous years.

Therefore, Yi Chengzhou took the lead in proposing in the court to reject Dongfan's proposal to borrow grain, and the Emperor of Northern Qi, for the sake of the people, also readily accepted this suggestion.

Because of this, Yi Chengzhou became enemies with the entire Dongfan.

Therefore, Mu Wan planned this incident not only to frame Mu Yan for the murder, but also to teach Yi Chengzhou a painful lesson under the order of King Qin of Dongfan.

Yi Chengzhou is a stubborn person, and Mu Yan was once a suspect in the murder of her sister. If she went to Yi Chengzhou in person to tell him about this matter, people would definitely suspect that she had ulterior motives.

The Duke of Qi had done him a favor, and only if he explained the matter to Yi Chengzhou would he believe it. This was also one of the reasons why Mu Yan came to see the Duke of Qi tonight.

The candle in Duke Qi's study remained lit all night long.

The two of them kept discussing the next plan until dawn, when Mu Yan turned around and said goodbye.

Before leaving, she specifically reminded Duke Qi not to expose the true identity of the Holy Maiden of Dongfan, otherwise it would bring trouble to the Mu family.

Now the two of them were on the same front, so the Duke of Qi also agreed to this request.

After returning home, Mu Yan fell into a deep sleep until noon.

"Shi Ying, Miss, haven't you gotten up yet?" A voice like the sound of white dew and silver bells came from outside the door.

Mu Yan opened her eyes slightly and said, "Come in."

In fact, she had just woken up, but just wanted to stay in bed a little longer.

After Mu Yan finished washing up, she turned her gaze to Bai Lu and asked, "Tell me, is there anything good you want to tell me?"

Bai Lu blinked, "Miss, how do you know it's a happy event?"

A black line crossed Mu Yan's mind. You were smiling so hard that your teeth were almost reaching your ears. Who couldn't see that it was a happy event?

Bai Lu's clear and lively eyes moved slightly, and she continued, "My brother and Miss You Hua are planning to get married."

Mu Yan raised her eyebrows. Is Tang Wen, the taciturn guy, finally willing to open his true feelings?

In fact, she had known that something was going on between them for a long time, but Tang Wen was too thoughtful, and her own identity was too sensitive, so she had never dared to face her own heart.

Now that the two of them have finally achieved their goal, it is a good thing.

"Have you set a date?"

Bai Lu pursed her lips and said, "My brother said that after the Tang family's injustice is redressed, he will marry Miss You Hua in a dignified manner."

Mu Yan patted her shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I believe that soon, the Tang family's injustice will be made public."

Bai Lu's eyes were slightly red, and her pupils were filled with unconcealable excitement. God knows she had been looking forward to this day even in her dreams.

If that day really comes, she will be able to go to her parents' grave to pay homage and tell them about this matter with dignity.

Seeing her like this, Shi Ying was also very excited, but she really couldn't bear to see Bai Lu cry, so she pretended to be relaxed and teased: "Sister Bai Lu, this is a great thing, you can't cry."

After hearing these words, Bai Lu burst into laughter and held back the tears in her eyes.

Then she thought of something else and continued to say to Mu Yan: "By the way, Miss, Miss You Hua doesn't want to go back to Fengyue Pavilion anymore."

Mu Yan nodded: "You Hua is someone your brother hired. Let him handle this matter on his own. Just take care of the rest and don't cause any trouble."

These words not only set You Hua free, but also completely entrusted her to Tang Wen.

In the previous life, You Hua died during a mission. Presumably, she had found clues about the unjust case of Tang Wen’s father and was secretly harmed by Mo Xingchen.

And this life has a good ending.

My rebirth in this life not only changed my own destiny, but also changed the destiny of many people.

Some people have a happy marriage, while others fall into hell.

The night is deep and the moon is like a hook.

Dongfan Post Station.

"what--"

A scream broke the silence in the darkness, as if tearing the night apart.

A hurried sound of footsteps began to come from outside the house, getting closer and closer, and more and more urgent.

Si Yao looked at the shadow in front of her, her scalp tingling with fear, her face as pale as paper, her heart seemed to be jumping out of her throat, she kept backing away while holding the quilt, her voice trembling slightly: "Go away, go away, don't come over here!"
