Chapter 371 Maid Bai Yueguang (20)
"Uncle, as you can see, Muning encountered an accident and disappeared. I regret very much that I did not protect her and allowed her to encounter these hardships."
In a private room in Zuixiang Building, the largest restaurant in the county, Lu Yaoguang said to Mu Xiangyuan with tears in her eyes.
Xuanyuan Zhi stood aside quietly without speaking.
The only person sitting was Mu Xiangyuan.
At this moment, he was holding the token provided by Chen Yaoguang in his hand, and the emotions in his eyes were unclear.
"Is this all my daughter has left?" Mu Xiangyuan asked in a very low voice.
Chen Yaoguang's tears flowed out again: "I'm sorry, my husband-in-law and I were plotted and exiled thousands of miles away. We don't have much to bring out. I just wanted to let you know the news about Muning, so I took the risk to come to you.
, if I have the opportunity to return to the capital in the future, I will definitely hand over all her tokens to you."
"So, as far as you are concerned, my daughter is a sister to you. The two of you grew up together, and she was also raised as a rich lady?"
Chen Yaoguang wiped her tears and nodded: "Yes. My father treats us both as his biological daughters. If you have my share, you will have her share. You don't have to worry about her life."
Mu Xiangyuan knocked on the table, was silent for a moment, and then nodded slightly: "If that's the case, then I'll feel at ease."
Chen Yaoguang and Xuanyuan Zhi looked at each other.
Mu Xiangyuan raised his head again: "You brought my daughter's token. I'm grateful to you. I'll treat you to this meal today."
Hearing what he said, a flash of astonishment flashed across Chen Yaoguang's face.
Then she quickly shook her head: "No need, uncle, I'm just doing my best, how can I bother you?"
"It doesn't matter. It's just a simple meal. I can still afford it."
Mu Xiangyuan ignored him at all and immediately asked the waiter to serve the food.
Not long after, a large table of sumptuous delicacies was placed in front of them.
These two people had gone through so many hardships from the capital thousands of miles away to get here, with haggard expressions on their faces. No matter how calm they were, their eyes hungry for food could not deceive anyone.
"Let's all sit down and eat. Since you regard my daughter as a sister, don't be polite."
Mu Xiangyuan made a gesture.
Chen Yaoguang and Xuanyuan Zhi looked at each other again and sat down.
After a meal, no matter how restrained they were in eating, the few dishes left revealed their embarrassment.
"Okay, where will you live now? If there is anything I need help with, just ask." Mu Xiangyuan wiped his mouth, his expression calm.
Chen Yaoguang and Xuanyuan Zhi were waiting for Mu Xiangyuan's words.
As criminals who fled thousands of miles after their attempt to usurp the throne failed, they would definitely not be like Mu Xiangyuan and resume their status as civilians as soon as they came.
As prisoners with a record of crimes, they were all assigned to coal mines. They had to dig coal for a year to see if they could survive before making other considerations.
"I came to you for no other reason than to avenge Aning. You don't know how much abuse she suffered from the Dog Emperor in the capital. She was forced to get married, and she disappeared quietly after escaping.
Maybe he has been killed...The emperor was so cruel to people's lives that even his own children were ruthless. If such a powerful person is allowed to stay in that position, how can the people live a good life? "
"Uncle, I have no other request. Although we have fallen here, my husband and I still have some people available. If possible, I hope you can come out to help us and avenge my sister!"
Chen Yaoguang spoke with great righteousness, as if he was ordered by heaven to defeat the rebels.
Xuanyuan Zhi, who was watching from the sidelines, did not stop her. Instead, he knelt down with Chen Yaoguang. His words and deeds revealed that they needed Mu Xiangyuan to help.
Mu Xiangyuan was a very capable reformist official in the court. He had made many political achievements. If his brother hadn't harmed him and allowed the emperor to find fault, he might have been on the throne long ago.
A position above ten thousand people.
If the couple hadn't taken a fancy to his talent, they wouldn't have come to see him in person.
Mu Xiangyuan stroked his beard and sighed: "You have been planning for such a long time just to get me out of the mountain and work as a cow for you. Am I right?"
When Chen Yaoguang heard this, he immediately looked hurt: "How can you say that? I'm just afraid that my sister's underground spirit will be troubled, so I want to ask you for help."
"You are so inconsistent with your words. At first you said that my daughter was missing, and now you say that she is only an underground spirit. You can't even tell what happened to her, so you dare to lie to me. Who will tell me?
Your courage?"
Mu Xiangyuan's tone dropped, and Chen Yaoguang was frightened.
She discovered the flaw in her words and quickly added: "I, I was just afraid that something might happen to my sister, and I didn't mean to curse her. Uncle, please be clear."
However, this time Mu Xiangyuan's expression changed. He sighed and shouted to the back of the two of them: "Aning, I lost this time. I didn't expect that they could actually come in your name."
If you ask me to do something, I will give you the ink mark."
Chen Yaoguang's expression froze on her face. She thought it was an auditory hallucination when she heard the word An Ning. She subconsciously turned around and saw Muning, who was safe and sound, standing there with a smile on her face.
"After so many years, your acting skills are still so poor. Sure enough, my stupid sister will not become smarter just because of how many things she has experienced." Muning ridiculed mercilessly.
Chen Yaoguang collapsed on the ground: "Are you still alive?"
Muning admired his nails that had just been painted red with impatiens flowers, and said slowly: "Not only am I alive, but I am also living quite well. If you want to use my name to do things with my father in the future, you must first
Let's investigate clearly. Don't think that everything is within your expectations. God is always on your side. You are acting under my nose and crying to my father. You know that I am holding back my laughter much more when I sit in the back.
Is it hard?"
Chen Yaoguang was completely dumbfounded. When she saw Muning, who had become more and more gorgeous after not seeing each other for these years, she was dumbfounded and didn't know how to react.
Even Xuanyuan Zhi's expression changed several times, and the two of them stood on the same spot, just like two monkeys.
"Okay, stop hitting them, Aye, find someone to drag them out."
Shangguanye, who had not shown up until now, also walked out from behind.
Then Mu Xiangyuan showed a look of true disgust towards them: "You return my daughter's token, and I will repay it with a meal. From now on, all we have left is hatred. You forced my daughter to be a slave.
