C37 (2/2)
Su Mu Qing paused for a moment. He glanced at Jiang Wan Yan's abnormally expectant expression, then sighed and stood up, ”The day after tomorrow will be the anniversary of the death of my mother. There are some things that I still need to prepare.
Jiang Wan Yan was stunned.
Why didn't you say anything else?
”Do you have something on your mind?” Jiang Wanyan reached out to pull him back, ”Don't lie to me.” ”Although I can't help you, but you can tell me, don't hold it in in your heart.”
Su Mu Qing's brows were still twitching. ”I went to interrogate someone this morning.”
He seemed to be implying something in his words. After hearing that Jiang Wan Yan had interrogated someone this morning, Jiang Wan Yan was silent for a moment before she tentatively said: ”Yes.” Do you know what's bad about it? ”
Su Mu Qing shook his head. ”I didn't ask anything. If I did, I wouldn't be so passive now.”
Indeed, the feeling of being caught without being able to ask anything was very uncomfortable. Last time, it was the same for the assassin. Su Mu Qing never brought her along this time because he didn't want her to face an even more brutal interrogation method.
”Furthermore, he was not the only one who took action. Qingyi had even managed to kill one of them. This is not good for our situation. I am very worried.” He finally spoke a bit of what he was thinking in his heart. Jiang Wanyan had thought that it was because his hand had been dislocated.
”Ah?” There's another one? ” Jiang Wanyan was speechless, ”Could they be split up? But there was no second accident. ”
Su Mu Qing nodded his head, ”Yes, because their mission should be different. Moreover, the second person was hidden even deeper, so after the first person was captured by Qing Yi, they quickly retreated. I feel that their goal might be to kidnap someone or something, and they definitely won't let us off so easily.”
At that time, there was indeed no one chasing after them after jumping off the horse carriage. Jiang Wanyan had thought that it was because the person had shot the horse and then left; she just wanted to teach them a lesson.
In Su Mu Qing's eyes, that person wanted his life.
Because of this matter, Jiang Wanyan's mood had also reached the bottom. The two of them did not discuss much, but she no longer had that kind of interest from before.
The quiet time in the manor passed very quickly. Jiang Wanyan was still sighing with emotion about how Cheng Jiayue was still not used to the ruckus around him after all these years. She immediately uploaded the news from the Yongping Mansion that Cheng Jiayue had been grounded by the Mr. Yongping.
Su Mulang was also called into the palace by the Imperial Consort Zheng.
After accompanying Su Mu Qing in the mansion for two days, she was discouraged. On the morning of the third day, Yu Yan brought in a set of clothes that were pure white, with a few black lotus flowers embossed on the collar.
Jiang Wan Yan was stunned for two seconds, then her heart suddenly sank. Today was the day of Su Mu Qing's death, the mansion was so quiet that it was scary. Even Yu Yan did not dare to smile easily.
She was a new Imperial Consort Jing and her mother-in-law had died early, so she could only bow in front of the monument. Jiang Wan Yan purposely gave herself a white flower as a hairpin, with her long hair tied behind her head, giving her an exceptionally refreshing feeling.
Su Mu Qing was wearing only a pure black robe today. When he pushed open the door, it brought along a gust of wind. Seeing Jiang Wan Yan turn her head to look at him, he smiled: ”Are you done?”
