Han Yunxi couldn't help but laugh. Inside the carriage, the expressionless Long Feiye's expression had long changed. He lifted the curtains slightly to look outside, a sinister glint in his eyes.
Han Yunxi didn't know that Long Fei Ye was watching all of this from inside the carriage. She looked at Mu Ling 'er and shook her head.
Even though she knew that Mute Granny had fallen off a cliff and her chances of survival were slim, she didn't give up. For the past year, she'd kept asking Long Fei Ye to find her body. It was only recently that she didn't give up.
Han Yunxi had always felt guilty about Mute Granny's death.
But that didn't mean that Mu Ling 'er had the right to slander her like this!
"What a hypocritical woman. How dare you bully an innocent old woman? I, Mu Ling 'er, despise you!" Mu Ling' er scolded angrily.
She'd said before that if Han Yunxi dared to harm even a hair on Mute Granny's head, she'd look down on her.
Han Yunxi was furious as well. She jumped out of the carriage and shouted, "Mu Ling 'er, you better show me proof. Otherwise, don't even think about leaving today!"
"Proof?" Mu Ling 'er smiled Cold. "I must have been out of my mind to not suspect you. You're the proof yourselves. What proof do you need from me? "
"Don't try to talk nonsense with me!" Han Yunxi snapped.
"What, do you want me to say it out loud?" Mu Ling 'er laughed mockingly. "Han Yunxi, the only people who know about Mute Granny are you, the Duke of Qin, and Qi Brother. Only my Mu family knows about it."
"So?" Han Yunxi asked.
"His Highness Duke of Qin is very capable. He was able to take you and Mute Granny away from the encirclement of my father's assassins. Do you think my Mu family has the ability to force Mute Granny to commit suicide?" Mu Ling 'er questioned.
"It wasn't His Highness Duke of Qin who escorted Mute Granny. It was one of his subordinates." Han Yunxi explained. "I didn't suspect the Mu family."
She did have her suspicions back then, but after Mu Ling 'er's explanation, she no longer doubted the Mu Family and stopped causing trouble for them.
Mu Yingdong had a use for Mute Granny. He might be able to capture her, but he definitely wouldn't force Mute Granny to fall off the cliff. Moreover, when Mu Ling'er was exchanged with the treasure, she had also tested him. She was very sure that it was not Mu Yingdong who did it.
"So, are you sure it's not my Mu Family's doing?" Mu Ling'er asked.
"I'm sure. Just what are you trying to say? "Han Yunxi wasn't that patient.
Mu Ling 'er was not in a hurry. She asked, "Then let me ask you again. Will Qi Brother kidnap Mute Granny?"
Han Yunxi didn't even think about it. "It can't be him."
It was Gu who brought her to see Mute Granny. If it wasn't for Gu, she wouldn't have known about Mute Granny's existence! Gu was also looking for Mute Granny!
"Very good. Then let me ask you again. There are only so many people who know about Mute Granny. Qi Brother and my Mu Family aren't suspects. So, are you and Long Fei Ye the biggest suspects?" Mu Ling'er asked.
"That's a robber's logic!" Han Yunxi blurted out.
Mu Ling'er didn't understand, nor did she want to understand. After Qi Brother analyzed everything with her, she became angry. She felt that Qi Brother's analysis was very reasonable.
She believed that the Mu Family and Qi Brother weren't suspects. However, she didn't believe that Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye weren't suspects.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye were the ones who kidnapped Mute Granny and pretended to tell her that Mute Granny had fallen off the cliff. They probably didn't want the Mu Family to ask them for Mute Granny.
As for why Han Yunxi was looking for Mute Granny, it seemed to have something to do with her family background. Qi Brother had been vague about it, so she didn't want to know more about it. She just wanted to get Mute Granny back and expose Han Yunxi's hypocritical mask!
She asked loudly, "If you and Long Fei Ye didn't kidnap her, then where did Mute Granny go? Who kidnapped Mute Granny? Tell me! "
"I also want to know who kidnapped her. I've been investigating for a year, but I couldn't find anything!" Han Yunxi was furious.
What was robber's logic? The so-called bandit logic was a logic that did not make sense. It was a logic that was twisted and unreasonable.
From Mu Ling 'er's point of view, if she excluded the Mu Family and Gu, did that mean she and Long Fei Ye were the culprits? How could she explain this logic to her?
It would have been better if Han Yunxi hadn't explained herself. Once she did, Mu Ling 'er laughed out loud. Her laughter became even more sarcastic. "Han Yunxi, you said that Mute Granny was escorted by his subordinates. Are all of His Highness Duke of Qin's subordinates useless? It's fine if they can't protect Mute Granny, but they can't even find a single clue? Who are you trying to fool? "
Han Yunxi was slightly taken aback. She had to admit that this was the one thing she couldn't figure out the most.
Actually, if she were to stand in Mu Ling 'er's point of view, she might also use robber's logic to question this matter.
When Gu first learned that Mute Granny had fallen off the cliff, he'd questioned this point as well.
Mute Granny's escort had been Chu Xifeng, Long Fei Ye's most skilled martial artist. Even if Mute Granny had fallen off the cliff because of his incompetence, he should have been able to find some clues among the bandits. Otherwise, the bandits wouldn't have escaped without leaving any clues behind. After all, they'd been investigating for a year without finding a single clue.
Leaving aside Mu Ling 'er, even Han Yunxi didn't think it was possible.
Even so, Han Yunxi never suspected Long Fei Ye. Even if she suspected everyone who knew about Mute Granny, she wouldn't suspect Long Fei Ye.
After all, Long Fei Ye was on her "side." If she suspected Long Fei Ye, wouldn't that be the same as suspecting herself?
The explanation she gave herself was that the robbers were mysterious. She even suspected that the robbers might know a lot about Mu Xin, so they also knew about Mute Granny.
It wasn't the first time she and Long Feiye had discussed the matter. But since they couldn't find any clues, they could only wait for the bandits to make their next move.
Of course, Han Yunxi didn't want to explain any of this to Mu Ling 'er anymore.
She'd explained enough already. No matter how much she tried, Mu Ling 'er wouldn't believe her.
"If you don't believe me, then forget it. There's no point in me saying more. Out of the way, "Han Yunxi said Coldly.
"What, you're feeling guilty? Don't tell me you think those bandits have powerful backgrounds and powerful martial arts. That's laughable! "
Han Yunxi's heart felt stifled at Mu Ling 'er's words.
This wasn't the first time she'd encountered such an unreasonable situation, but Mu Ling 'er's self-righteous indignation made her want to retort, but she couldn't.
Fine, she admitted that she and Long Fei Ye were indeed suspicious, but only they knew that they were innocent.
Han Yunxi looked deeply at Mu Ling 'er. Without saying a word, she turned to get into the car.
Unexpectedly, Mu Ling 'er suddenly shouted, "Hand over Mute Granny, or don't even think about leaving."
As she said that, she raised her sword and charged!
Unfortunately, before she could get close to Han Yunxi, shadow guard Xu Donglin appeared. He blocked her sword and forced her to the ground.
Mu Ling 'er wasn't satisfied and immediately jumped up. "Han Yunxi, you're feeling guilty, aren't you?"
Han Yunxi ignored her and got into the car.
Mu Ling 'er didn't say anything because she didn't have time to block Xu Donglin's sword. She didn't have time to speak.
Her medical skills were top-notch, but her martial arts were average. She was already very lucky to be able to block three of Xu Donglin's moves.
After Han Yunxi got into the car, she saw that Long Fei Ye was still marking the papers. She sat to the side and propped her head up in thought, but didn't say anything.
When she heard the sounds of swords clashing outside the car become more and more intense, she said to Long Fei Ye, "Let's go. Don't offend the Mu family too much. After all, they control Medicine City."
Han Yunxi knew that Long Fei Ye's indifference didn't mean that he didn't mind. He just didn't like to talk nonsense. Xu Donglin, a shadow guard, was enough to kill Mu Ling 'er.
Long Feiye really did want to kill her, but Han Yunxi's words weren't wrong either. Once he killed Mu Linger, he'd be going head to head with the Mu Clan. Mu Yingdong wouldn't swallow such humiliation. For the time being, he didn't want to touch the powers of the four cities, so he didn't want to cause trouble for them.
"Fu Bo, why aren't we leaving?" Long Fei Ye asked.
"Yes, yes!"
Only then did the coachman Fu Bo start the car. Seeing this, Xu Donglin hurriedly followed, no longer paying attention to Mu Ling 'er.
Mu Ling 'er had been knocked to the ground long ago. With her right leg injured, it was difficult for her to walk, let alone chase after them. She stood up with difficulty and angrily threw away her sword, silently cursing herself for being brainless.
As soon as she received Qi Brother's secret letter and learned that Han Yunxi would be passing by, she impulsively came looking for her. She didn't know that Long Fei Ye was also traveling with her.
Under these circumstances, how could she deal with Han Yunxi? She was simply courting death!
After being angry for a long time, Mu Ling 'er obediently sat down and bandaged the sword wound on her right leg. Then, she obediently picked up the sword that she had thrown away and used it as a crutch.
She didn't know where Qi Brother had gone. A few days ago, he looked for her for tea and analyzed the matter of Mute Granny with her. But that night, he disappeared again. It wasn't until this morning that he sent her a secret letter.
She really didn't know what Qi Brother was busy with. But this time, she was still very happy.
Qi Brother only told her about Mute Granny and asked her to test Han Yunxi. He didn't ask her himself. This was enough to show that Qi Brother had seen through Han Yunxi's hypocrisy. He wasn't like before where he was led by the nose by Han Yunxi.
Mu Ling 'er really didn't realize who was the one being led by the nose.
As for what Gu had been busy with recently, only he himself knew.
At this moment, in Medicine Ghost Valley, Gu Qi Sha was watering the expensive medicinal plants in his courtyard. The Medicine Ghost Valley was huge and there were a lot of medicinal plants in it. However, the medicinal plants in the inconspicuous corners of his courtyard were the most expensive ones in the entire valley. Normally, he would let the old steward take care of them, but when he returned, he would personally tend to them.
"Master, there's a woman outside. Her baby is only a few months old and has contracted a strange disease. She wants to ask for Solid Foundation Grass." The old steward reported timidly.
Gu Qi Sha pretended not to hear him and carefully washed the leaves of his precious medicinal plants.
The old steward hesitated for a moment before saying, "Master, that woman is quite pitiful. She's injured and can't take care of her baby. Even after being born, the baby still doesn't know who its mother is … Sigh, it's quite sad to say this. How about … "
Gu Qi Sha continued to ignore him. The old steward sighed softly. He knew that it was useless to say anything more. There were so many people outside who wanted to ask for medicine. His heart would occasionally soften, but unfortunately, it was useless!
Just as the old steward was about to leave, a young servant hurried over and signaled to him. The old steward immediately understood what was going on.
He hurriedly turned back and reported, "Master, His Highness Duke of Qin and the others are here!"
His Excellency Pill Fiend had been waiting for His Highness Duke of Qin and esteemed wangfei for several days now …
