Chapter 351 Caught off guard



Chapter 351 Caught off guard

Shen Yindi's eyes lit up immediately after hearing this, and there was a hint of surprise in her eyes.

"Let's talk now! No need to wait until we get back! Otherwise, Master Mu will have to make another trip with us."

After Mu Ningyuan came back, his attention was all on Si Qi. Thinking about how they had been drinking in the private room before, he was worried that she would get drunk and feel uncomfortable.

Si Qi's eyes light up when he drinks.

This was the case at the moment. Seeing her quiet and well-behaved appearance, Mu Ningyuan knew that she was probably drunk.

"Qi'er, are you okay? Did you drink too much?" Mu Ningyuan stood beside her, saw her leaning against the wall, and immediately helped her to his side.

The wall is so cold, this little girl is really...

Si Qi leaned on him directly, which was much more comfortable. It was really hard just now.

She was originally leaning on Adi, but when she saw them coming back just now, she came over.

She didn't want to move, so she continued to lean against the wall.

"Brother Mu, I'm fine! I just feel a little dizzy. I didn't drink much."

"Adi has already given me a hangover pill, so you don't have to worry." Not only did she say that, she also reached out and patted his chest.

Mu Ningyuan was afraid that she would fall, so he hugged her in his arms and let her lean on his chest.

Si Qi rubbed his chest and felt really comfortable.

She hugged his waist directly. In the dim moonlight, Mu Ningyuan pulled the corners of his mouth, smiled helplessly, and rubbed his chin against the top of her head.

Shen Yindi glanced at the two of them, a sly smile appearing on the corner of her mouth. Qi'er is now becoming more and more dependent on Lord Mu, perhaps she herself has not noticed it.

This was something she loved to see.

Chu Yan shared with her the information they had just found out.

"The guest rooms upstairs that they had previously rented out to foreigners are now completely vacant and deserted."

"Half of the girls inside are missing. I heard that they were clearing the accounts recently. I don't know where the missing half of the girls went." Chu Yan said in a low voice.

A hint of surprise flashed across Shen Yindi's eyes.

"Are they going to close the shop and run away?"

She immediately expressed her thoughts.

"Probably. Maybe it's a premonition that something is going to happen."

"I guess it has something to do with the death of someone in the palace, which disrupted their plans."

"If it continues to be opened, it may reveal some key clues."

"They should be cleaning up the mess now." Chu Yan analyzed in a low voice.

Shen Yindi nodded: "I found it too."

"It's a bit confusing now. These girls are definitely not ordinary people. At least the girls we called tonight are very different from the previous ones. I feel like they are more than just brothel girls!"

Chu Yan pursed his lips and frowned slightly.

"What should we do next?" Shen Yindi asked.

"Tomorrow Ning Yuan will find a reason to arrest the people inside and lock them up in the Dali Temple jail first, and then interrogate them." Chu Yan said in a low voice.

Shen Yindi raised her eyebrows, this is good.

"Have you thought of a reason?" she asked.

"Think about it carefully. They are related to the Miao people. Father has sent Ning Yuan to investigate this matter thoroughly, and this is a good excuse for him to do so." Chu Yan said in a low voice.

Shen Yindi raised a sly smile at the corner of her mouth: "Maybe they are not wrongly accused!"

"They didn't notice you guys going to check, right? Don't let them escape first!"

"No. If this is discovered, I won't have to fight them!" Chu Yan's voice was a little cold.

"Okay, let's go back first."

"It's getting late." Chu Yan said.

"it is good."

Originally, Shen Yindi didn't want Mu Ningyuan to make another trip, so she decided to say it directly here.

But now Si Qi fell asleep in his arms.

He was reluctant to wake her up, so he kept pampering her. In the end, he carried Si Qi back home.

The next morning, a sensational event spread in the imperial capital.

The land of gentleness has been closed down!

More than thirty people were detained.

When this news came out, the entire imperial capital was in an uproar.

As everyone knows, Wenrouxiang has only been in business for a few years in the imperial capital, but its business is booming!

Many people went there to drink and party last night, but we didn’t expect that the place would be suddenly closed down the next day!

It was unexpected and caused panic among the people. For a time, all kinds of rumors spread in the city.

In the morning, Shen Yindi, Si Qi, Chu Yun and others were having breakfast together.

Aunt Fu told them about this.

She would go to the market almost every morning to buy things and go to the morning market. She would hear a lot of things.

When Shen Yindi heard this, her eyes flashed and she thought, Lord Mu is really fast.

"Ah? It was sealed? Who sealed it?" Si Qi was shocked.

Shen Yindi couldn't help but laugh. Last night when they were talking, she slept comfortably in Lord Mu's arms.

"It was your brother Mu who gave you the title." Shen Yindi said with a smile.

"what?"

"He sealed it? So early?" Si Qi continued to be shocked.

"Yes, didn't the emperor assign him a task? He must investigate."

Si Qi nodded: "I hope Brother Mu can check it quickly and not be so tired."

"really."

Chu Yan had just had breakfast and went out early.

I don’t know what he has been checking recently. He goes out early and comes back late.

Now Yanshu and Zoucheng follow him.

Zou Cheng works with Yan Shu and can help Chu Yan share some of the burden.

The imperial palace. The harem.

Early in the morning, the queen also received the news.

She looked very bad.

Bad things have happened one after another recently, which has greatly affected her mood.

She stroked the teacup, feeling a sense of uneasiness in her heart.

She noticed that Chu Yan was gradually gaining momentum recently.

The queen's deep voice sounded: "Have you dealt with everything? Will they get any evidence against you?"

"They have been cleaning up in the past few days. If those people can withstand interrogation, they will definitely not say anything!"

"But don't worry, even if they confess, we will not be implicated." The nanny said comfortingly.

"Huh? Can you withstand interrogation? Don't forget, the one who took them away was Dali Temple Minister Mu Ningyuan!"

"This Mu Ningyuan is even more ruthless than his father!"

"Tell someone to find a way to stop them from speaking." The queen ordered in a low voice, with a hint of displeasure in her tone.

Their move really caught her off guard.

She has suffered heavy losses recently! The secret lines in the imperial capital have been torn apart and almost completely uprooted! She can't swallow this breath!

Especially, the emperor's attitude towards her has become even colder recently! He doesn't come to her for ten days or half a month.

"I'll go make contact."

"If it doesn't work, don't force it and don't involve me." The queen did not forget to remind him.

"I understand, old servant." Keeping those people here would indeed cause more trouble.

"The third brother has been gaining momentum recently. Given time, the emperor will surely value him again, and may even announce to the world that he will be pardoned and rehabilitated."

The queen drank her tea and spoke casually.

Thinking of her son still under house arrest in the East Palace, she was furious. How could the gap be so big!

"My lady, would you like me to create some obstacles for him?"
