MTL - Fight the Giants-Chapter 881 question
Early in the morning, Mu Yan woke up and saw that Huo Xi was still sleeping, so she leaned over and kissed her, tucked her in the quilt, and got out of bed.
First carry the sword and go to the backyard to practice boxing and kicking...
After half an hour, he put away the sword. Li Yi took it close to him, and Kan Er handed over the handkerchief. Mu Yan took it and pressed it on his face, "Is there someone from the second room?"
"Yes. In the middle of the night, Aunt Jun sent someone to invite, and then the Duke sent someone to invite. They all turned back."
Mu Yan nodded. I thought there would be someone waiting at the door to pass him over early in the morning, but there was no one. It seems that he is holding back his big move and preparing to attack it in the meeting hall.
The corners of his mouth raised. He asked again: "Is there any change between Jun's family and Jiao's family?"
"Nothing. Our people are all watching. The Jun family only sent people to see Aunt Jun last night, but nothing happened. The Jiao family even sent people to inquire about Master Jiao's whereabouts."
It seems that Jiao Zan often stays out at night, and his family is used to it. Mu Yan nodded and waved them away.
Go to the bathing pool to soak in the fragrant soup, change clothes and tidy up, then tiptoe to stand behind the curtain and glance at Huo Xi who is sleeping soundly on the bed, then turn around and go to the meeting hall.
When he arrived at the meeting hall, he was the last one again. I stepped on it again.
Seeing Mu Zhan looking at him with unclear meaning, Mu Yan cast him a blank glance, walked straight to his seat and sat down.
Just after announcing the start of the discussion, Mu Zhan was the first to attack...
"I heard that the second younger brother took Mr. Jiao from Hualou last night, so that Mr. Jiao didn't come back all night. In the morning, Mr. Jiao's family sent someone to ask. I wonder if the second brother can send someone to tell Mr. Jiao's house so that he won't go home. The family is worried."
"Oh, is his family worried? I heard that Mr. Jiao likes to listen to music very much, and he often stays in Hualou for several days and nights." After speaking, he turned to Mu Jun and asked, "His family always sends someone to look for it. ?”
Uh...how did you ask him? Mu Jun didn't understand the situation and was speechless for a moment.
Master Jiao has good abilities, great strength, and good kung fu. He has accumulated military merits all the way from a small soldier to the position of commander from the third rank. In the military is still very respected.
But he has a hobby, that is, he likes to go to flower houses to drink flower wine, listen to music and enjoy singing and dancing. I heard that they often stay overnight in Hualou.
Men, and men with great abilities, have some hobbies of their own. Mu Jun didn't say well whether his hobby is good or not.
"Then let his family go to Hualou to look for it, maybe Mr. Jiao is still there."
"Fourth brother, it seems that you didn't remember what elder brother said just now." Mu Zhan felt that it was too obvious for him to cover up Mu Yan.
"Second brother called people away last night, in front of many people in Hualou. Master Jiao didn't go home all night after that. Second brother, should you explain to Jiao's family?"
Duke Qian frowned and looked at Mu Zhan.
Last night, Aunt Jun woke him up from his sleep, saying that Master Jiao had disappeared, and asked him to ask Mu Yan what was going on. A general in the army disappeared in the middle of the night looking for him?
Made Qian Guogong very angry. What else could Mu Yan do to people? Can it kill people or chop them up?
But in the end, Aunt Jun couldn't hold back, so she had to send someone to summon Mu Yan. But I didn't ask to move.
Gong Qian didn't care much.
I wanted to finish the discussion, so I called Yan'er in private to ask after the meeting was over. What happened to Ke Zhaner? Do you want to ask such an insignificant matter in front of so many officials and staff?
His face was a little impatient: "Mu Yan, just tell me where Mr. Jiao has gone, and discuss it quickly after you finish talking!" All nonsense matters are brought to the meeting hall. He glared at Mu Zhan.
"Don't delay everyone's discussion."
Mu Yan looked leisurely, "It's not that I'm delaying everyone. It's the eldest son who insists on asking such boring things in class. Mr. Jiao will stay in which flower house he likes to stay at night. What does that have to do with me? Ask me Can I ask? Am I his parents or his wife? It doesn’t matter where he goes.”
All the officials and staff shook their heads and laughed, and even Mu Xi burst out laughing.
"Brother, don't embarrass the second brother. He is the cleanest man. Telling him to go to flower houses is like killing him. He doesn't know how many flower houses are in the city, and which one Mr. Jiao likes to go to. Ask me almost."
Just after he finished speaking, Mu Zhan gave him a stern look. Mu Xi was startled and dared not speak again.
"Second brother, in the Hualou yesterday, many people saw you and took Master Jiao away. He didn't return all night, shouldn't you explain to his family?"
"The people under me called him away. But since you know that my subordinates called him away, you must also know why they called him away?"
"Just because he insulted you in public, you kidnapped the third-rank official of the court?"
"I kidnapped him? Who saw me kidnap him? Is this how the eldest son's subordinates reported to the eldest son?" Mu Yan looked disdainfully.
"He insulted the prince of the Duke's Mansion who was proclaimed by the emperor in public. I was very angry. I asked him to go and ask a few words to understand the reason. Why did I kidnap him when it came to the mouth of the eldest son? And I After questioning him, I let him go, and I told him for my subordinate's recklessness. Why, now that he's gone, you still want me to ask for it?"
Mu Zhan was stunned. I never knew that Mu Yan, who was a man of few words, was so eloquent that he turned black into white.
"Second brother, you don't need to argue. You sent people to Jun's house last night and asked them to make up for the money from the North and South Merchandise Company for no apparent reason. You also said that Jiao Zan was in your hands and asked them to redeem it with money. Second brother, you Are you planning to pretend it never happened?"
The meeting hall was so quiet that the sound of breathing could be heard.
Mu Yan suddenly smiled, "Oh? Someone came to Jun's house last night and asked them to make up the payment for the North-South Merchandise Company? Could it be that the matter of Li Daitao's death was caused by Jun's family and Jiao Zan? How could a **** be so good as to replace the South-North Merchandise Company? Upholding justice? I have to offer a stick of incense to my wife as a token of my gratitude."
"you!"
"Oh! I actually forgot that my elder brother is the grandson of the Jun family. It is wrong to say grandson, you should be the grandson of the Cheng family."
What he said made Mu Zhan grit his teeth in anger. You don't need to remind me of my aunt's identity!
But Mu Yan didn't stop talking, "Could it be that there is something here that I don't know about my brother? Did so many things happen last night? Could it be that my wife's shop lost several million taels of money, and there is something wrong with it? Brother , we were born of the same father, you can't help outsiders cheat brothers."
Duke Qian was dumbfounded.
Ask about Lord Jiao's whereabouts, why is Jun's family involved? And what about the North-South Merchant Company? Duke Qian frowned, looked at his eldest son, and then at Mu Yan. Uncertain.
Everyone in the meeting hall did not dare to breathe. There was so much content this early in the morning, and they couldn't bear it. His eyes looked back and forth between the eldest son and the eldest son, but no one dared to speak.
It's not easy to talk about this matter. I'm afraid that outsiders can't find out what's going on inside. Oops, I should take a day off today. Mistake.
Mu Zhan originally only wanted to record Jiao Zan's disappearance on Mu Yan in public, and it didn't matter to him whether Jiao Zan lived or died afterwards.
Finally, if Jiao Zan can't survive in Mu Yan's hands, he just joined the Jiao family to sue Mu Yan, suing him for secretly lynching and killing the lives of third-rank officials of the court, which happened to give him his position as the heir.
But Mu Yan picked up the matter completely in public, and even brought the matter to Jun's house, to the matter of being cheated of the payment for the goods from the North and the South.
Mu Zhan wanted to say more, but was stopped by Duke Qian, "Okay, let's discuss this in private. After the hall is over, send someone to Jiao's house to ask. If there is no whereabouts of Mr. Jiao, I will help you find it." After finishing speaking Without waiting for Mu Zhan's reaction, the discussion began.
"Father!" Mu Zhan didn't achieve his goal, a little bit unwilling.
Gong Qian gave him a sharp look in his eyes. Regardless of whether there is Mu Yan's business in this matter, can he tear it up and talk about it in front of so many people?
Although Qian Guogong likes this son, he will not let outsiders see the Mu family's jokes.
Thank you for your suggestions, for giving me the direction and inspiration for the new book, I love you~
