In the courtyard, Mu Liang looked at the backs of several people leaving. His pupils were filled with cold light, and a trace of fire was beating in his eyes, which made him feel like he couldn't bear to look at them.
Mu Liang ordered Feifeng to clean up all the account books on the ground, and then asked Lao Li to call in everyone who had been basking in the sun all afternoon. The sun was so strong this afternoon that Bao'er, who was sitting in the shade, felt that
It's cold. If her lady hadn't told her, she would have really wanted to go outside in the shade to bask in the sun once in a while.
The small courtyard was suddenly filled with people, and it was crowded.
Naturally, the people standing at the front were the seriously injured ladies and Mu Liang's brothers and sisters. Mu Liang saw them standing there one by one, pointed to the stool beside her that was smashed by her account book and said with a smile,
"Originally, I wanted to let the ladies sit down, but who knew that the mistakes made by some shopkeepers just now made me angry, and they accidentally broke the stools. Madams, don't mind standing and listening to me!"
Mu Liang's tone was neither cold nor hot, and his expression was calm and peaceful. But the more this happened, the more frightened the eldest lady and others became.
They have all suffered from Mu Liang, and they know that her outburst in such a calm state is the most terrifying thing.
"I'm calling all of you here today. It's because I accidentally intercepted a letter that someone from the General's Mansion was about to send! As for the content of the letter, I haven't had time to open it yet! But this letter is
I want to give it to the general who is far away at the border."
As soon as Mu Liang finished speaking, the fourth lady's face changed drastically and she turned as white as paper.
Mu Liang continued with a sneer, "As we all know, the rules of Bei Liao are that no one in Kyoto is allowed to send messages to the border without permission. Anyone who violates this will... be punished by the Nine Tribes!"
When Mu Liang said this, the faces of the eldest lady and the third lady changed. At least half of the men, women, and children in the courtyard had a look of fear on their faces. The other half were even fainted by fright, and a small number
There were calculations on their faces, fearing that their lives would be in danger if they were blamed for this crime. There were a dozen other people with calm expressions on their faces. Although they were nervous, they were not in a hurry.
Mu Liang secretly wrote down the facial features of the dozen or so people.
"This letter is in my hands now. People from the general's palace are not allowed to mail letters home, but they must be filed with the court. Sending letters without permission is a capital offense! But it's fine if he dies alone. What's pity is that the general will be implicated.
Everyone in the government is in bad luck, don’t you think?"
Mu Liang's cold eyes swept over the people in the courtyard.
The messenger was intercepted by Lao Li in the backyard of the General's Mansion. He was the confidant of the Fourth Madam.
Now the fourth lady's legs were weak and she collapsed on the ground with a plop. It's a pity that she was so frightened, but she still continued to pretend to be crazy.
"Someone wants to harm me! Someone wants to harm me! Woohoo! Someone wants to harm my daughter! I'm so scared! I'm scared... It's raining heavily! It's raining heavily! Woohoo, the rain is so heavy, it's getting me all wet!"
The fourth lady has been in a state of dementia since that day when it rained. Her two daughters, Nalan Bingqing and Nalan Yujie, were really frightened. As for Nalan Caihua, she was just sent away by Tuobo Kun.
The Fourth Madam still doesn’t know about the matter at the Huanyi Bureau.
The fourth lady sat on the ground, pulling her hair and clothes while talking to herself in a daze.
The first lady and the third lady looked at her with disgust.
At this time, Mu Liang took the letter from Lao Li and deliberately waved it in front of the fourth lady. The fourth lady's face suddenly turned a little paler.
"The handwriting on this letter is really familiar! Isn't it? Fourth Madam?"
Mu Liang raised his eyebrows and smiled coldly. For a moment, his cold eyes stared at the fourth lady's face pretending to be crazy. For a moment, the muscles on the fourth lady's face trembled violently. But she had already pretended to be crazy to this point, so what's the point?
If she showed it in front of everyone, the fourth lady would be so frightened that her whole body would tremble, and her heart would be in her throat.
The eldest lady and the third lady on the side stretched their necks to see clearly the handwriting on the letter, but Mu Liang kept blocking the handwriting with his palm, deliberately preventing them from seeing it clearly.
The first lady and the third lady looked at each other and intuitively felt that this letter should be related to the fourth lady.
Mu Liang glanced at everyone, folded the letter a few times in his hands, and said with a smile,
"We will discuss this letter later. I think the Fourth Madam can survive this illness. She doesn't even know anyone here, right? Lao Li, I want to go into the house now to treat the Fourth Madam and cure her depression.
Crazy, please bring a few people to guard the yard. It would be bad if the fourth lady goes crazy and rushes out of the house!"
After Mu Liang finished speaking, he seemingly casually pointed to a dozen servants responsible for guarding the yard, but they were the same dozen people who were in danger just now.
Lao Li understood what Mu Liang meant, and just stood there and repeated Mu Liang's words without giving any instructions. However, he saw five of the fifteen people standing still, a little at a loss, and four of them cleverly ran away.
After closing the door and hanging the latch, the other six men whispered to each other and followed the four hesitantly to hang the latch.
Mu Liang pointed to the four people who closed the door at the beginning, winked at Lao Li, and ordered Feifeng to bring the fourth lady into the room. The fourth lady was screaming at this moment, naturally she was scared. She had suffered from Mu Liang, so she couldn't
Knowing what Mu Liang was bringing her into the house, the more the fourth lady shouted, the more relaxed the expression on Mu Liang's face became.
"Everyone has seen that the fourth lady's illness must not be delayed any longer. It's not that I have to force her, but that if her illness breaks out at any time, it will harm the men, women, and children in this courtyard. Now, we must, root,
rule!"
Mu Liang deliberately said the last four words, and the fourth lady's face turned from white to black. Her eyes were full of boundless despair and fear, and her body was shaking like chaff. She was actually framed by Feifeng and Lao Li.
I got up and was dragged into the room.
In the yard, although the faces of the eldest lady and the third lady were covered with scars, they were looking eagerly into the house, not knowing how Mu Liang was going to treat the fourth lady.
If later, after the fourth lady comes out, her condition becomes more serious than before, then when the general comes back, the first lady and the third lady will definitely make a big fuss about this, so that Nalan Muliang will never be able to recover!
At the same time, Nalan Tianzuo and Yelu Zongxiao, who had just left the court, met unexpectedly at the gate of the General's Mansion. It was an unexpected encounter, rather than a narrow encounter!
Nalan Tianzuo opened the car curtain and looked at Yelu Zongxiao, who was riding on horseback from the opposite side, with a cold look of ridicule in his eyes.
