Shen Qingxu knew that Prime Minister Mu committed suicide by taking poison in prison, and she couldn't understand why such a loyal and good old minister like Prime Minister Mu would take poison.

"Sister, how did it become like this?"

"To prove his innocence, Prime Minister Mu and Madam Mu committed suicide by taking poison in prison, but the case had not yet been tried, and all the evidence pointed to the Mu family. Now that they are dead, those who secretly threw dirty water on Prime Minister Mu have become even more unscrupulous."

"What about Mu Yunzhou? Is Mu Yunzhou okay?" Shen Qingxu said anxiously, "I didn't know such a big thing happened in the Mu family. If I hadn't come to the palace today..."

"The Mu family has a golden medal of immunity from death. No matter what, Mu Yunzhou's life is safe!" Shen Qiuchi comforted Shen Qingxu.

"Then sister, Mu Yunzhou must be very sad now. As his friends, we didn't even know that such a big thing happened in his family. We didn't visit him in time, let alone accompany him." Shen Qingxu was a little depressed. She sat on the chair next to Shen Qiuchi without saying a word.

Shen Qiuchi looked at his sister who was blaming herself, sighed slightly, and then changed the subject.

"Qingxu, do you have classes in the academy today? Do you want to have lunch in the palace before going back?"

Shen Qingxu raised his head and said "hmm".

"Sister, how can I help Mu Yunzhou?"

"Help Mu Yunzhou? If you want to help him, you need to think carefully. Think about it carefully."

How to plan for the long term?

Then Shen Qingxu's eyes lit up.

"Sister, you said that Prime Minister Mu's treason case has not been heard yet. Does that mean that as long as there is evidence to prove Prime Minister Mu's innocence, or to find out the mastermind behind it, the Mu family can be cleared of the injustice?"

"Yes." Shen Qiuchi nodded with relief.

"But sister, how can we find evidence for a problem that even my brother-in-law can't solve?"

"It is because my sister and brother-in-law are in an awkward position and cannot take sides. The matter of finding evidence still depends on the Dali Temple and Mu Yunzhou himself."

"Depend on Mu Yunzhou himself?"

Shen Qingxu fell into deep thought again.

After lunch, she said goodbye to Shen Qiuchi and listened to the discussions on the street on the way back home in the carriage.

Unexpectedly, the story of Prime Minister Mu committing suicide to show his loyalty turned into a rumor that Prime Minister Mu committed suicide out of fear of punishment, and now this rumor has spread to everyone.

And if Shen Qiuchi hadn't told her, she wouldn't have known all this.

Shen Qingxu felt even more guilty towards Mu Yunzhou. As a good friend, she did not comfort him at the first time.

On the other hand, Mu Yunzhou was getting drunk in the restaurant.

He never expected that his father, who had been loyal to his country and his people all his life, would end up collaborating with the enemy and committing treason and committing suicide out of fear of punishment when he was old. He also never expected that the last time they parted would be the last time he saw his parents. If he had known this, he would have spent more time with his parents.

He cried while pouring wine into his mouth, feeling extremely painful and full of regret.

Yuan Bao was also sitting nearby, his eyes reddened as he watched the young master like this. He was just like the young master, as his Mu family had been exiled, his family members had all left, and now he was the only one left with the young master.

Mu Yunzhou's eyes were filled with tears. He smiled and said to Yuanbao, "Yuanbao, your son has really become an orphan this time."

"I used to envy the people in the storybooks. Their entire families were slaughtered and they were burdened with blood feuds. In the end, they became heroes step by step through experience. I don't want to be a famous hero anymore. I just want my family to live well."

"The hero's first half of life was too miserable. I can't bear it! Woo woo woo woo, I'm scared. I will have no family in the future..."

When Xu Xingyi found Mu Yunzhou, he was drunk as a pulp, lying on the ground, and still shouting that he didn't want to be a hero anymore and wanted to return his parents.

Yuanbao stood by and said nothing.

The whole room was filled with a pungent smell of alcohol. He told the waiter to open the window, then helped Mu Yunzhou sit on a chair and called Yuanbao to get some sobering soup, intending to take him back after he sobered up.

Xu Xingyi waited for an incense stick of time and found that the boy had fallen asleep!

Good man, he was waiting here in vain.

Xu Xingyi directly carried Mu Yunzhou up, threw him on the horse's back, and brought him back to the Mu Mansion.

Mu Yunzhou didn't wake up during the whole journey, and vomited all over Xu Xingyi's pants. Xu Xingyi wanted to kick Mu Yunzhou away, but when he saw Mu Yunzhou's pitiful appearance, he finally held back.

The next day, Mu Yunzhou woke up and found himself lying on a big bed at home. He had a severe headache and couldn't remember how he got home yesterday. At this time, Yuanbao came in with a bowl of hangover soup.

"Master, drink it while it's hot. Your headache will go away after you drink it."

"How did I get back yesterday?" Mu Yunzhou asked.

"this…"

"Is there anything wrong with saying this?" Mu Yunzhou asked urgently.

"Master, you were brought back by Master Xu yesterday..."

"He brought me back?" Mu Yunzhou patted his head and saw that Yuanbao seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Master, yesterday you..."

Yuanbao told everyone who Mu Yunzhou had lost yesterday, and then wanted to run away.

Mu Yunzhou's brows were twisted and he looked extremely embarrassed!

Seeing Yuan Bao's flushed face, he knew that he must have been very embarrassed yesterday, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Where is Xu Xingyi? Where is he now?"

"Young Master, don't be like this. Mr. Xu sent you back yesterday and left the house, and you vomited all over him." Yuan Bao advised while massaging Mu Yunzhou's head.

Xu Xingyi went to the Mu Mansion to see Mu Yunzhou again in the afternoon.

Mu Yunzhou said to Xu Xingyi with an embarrassed look on his face: "How could you pull me back like that? I have lost all my dignity!"

Xu Xingyi looked at him and said, "Can you be more embarrassed than buying drunks crying and howling in a restaurant?"

Mu Yunzhou thought, how can that be the same? He said, "The restaurant is in a private room after all, not outside. How can it be as embarrassing as being dragged on the street!"

"Oh!"

"Oh, I'd better not drink it in the future!" Mu Yunzhou said.
