After she saw the Marquis returning home, she smiled and said: "Why are you coming back at this time? Where's Wan'er? Why didn't she come back with you? Where did she go wild?"

With a "pop" sound, Mu didn't get any answer, but received a slap on the face.

This crisp slap not only silenced the Mu family, but even the servants in the mansion were dumbfounded when they saw it.

They did not expect that the Marquis would hit his wife, which had never happened before.

Mu screamed, then covered her red and swollen face, looked at the ferocious man in front of her, and blurted out: "Are you crazy?"

"You're crazy!" Marquis Anding stared at her fiercely and asked word for word: "Did you teach Lu Wan to slander Xi Yao?"

Mu's face suddenly changed, and she quibbled: "What slander, I don't know!"

She didn't admit it at all.

Marquis Anding pointed at her, trembled for a long time before nodding and said: "Okay, you don't know, I hope you don't know, otherwise things will get worse. I'll see what you do. Your daughter was designated by the emperor for slandering Xi Yao."

The suspect has been put in jail!"

"What?" Mu, who had been waiting for the news at home, was shocked by the news and took a few steps back. He stumbled and fell directly on the chair, murmuring in a daze: "How could this happen? How could he become a suspect?

Now, shouldn’t it be Xi Yao who is under suspicion?”

"I, the Marquis, don't dare to interfere in the important matters of the imperial court. You, a woman, are so bold that you dare to interfere. Do you want the Marquis to be buried with you?" Marquis Anding's eyes were as big as beads, and he looked at Mu with a look that seemed to be filled with lust.

Mu's face turned pale and pale.

Mrs. Mu did not look at Marquis Anding. She covered her heart, lowered her eyes and trembled, feeling a huge wave in her heart.

She didn't expect her daughter to be arrested.

Thinking of what she told her daughter, she couldn't help but feel scared...

If...if someone tortured her and found out what she did from Lu Wan's mouth, then...then she would not only be implicated in the Hou Mansion, but also the Mu family.

Thinking of her mother's family's plot, Mu Shi trembled, then bit her lip and looked at Marquis Anding: "How dare I, a woman, do this? Wan'er must have heard the rumors outside and thought Xi Yao was guilty.

I decided to give her a push, but it’s not like you don’t know her temperament. If I knew what she was thinking, I would definitely stop her!"

Mu looked at Marquis Anding aggrievedly, hoping that he would pity her as before and would feel pity for him because of the slap just now.

But she was wrong.

Marquis Anding did not, but said solemnly: "Just go ahead, I want to see if you can save Wan'er, and see if you don't save Wan'er, what will Wan'er say to others, Mu, don't put everyone

You are all considered fools, just wait for Wan'er to bite you!"

After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and left, too lazy to care about Mu's affairs.

After Mu was reminded of his proposal, her panic became even stronger.

What she was afraid of was that Lu Wan would speak openly and say that she taught these things.

Lu Wan had no involvement in the Mu family's affairs and knew nothing about it. If someone found out, she used Lu Wan's apology to Princess Dayuan to go see Meng Tu, fearing that something would be revealed.

…

When the time comes, not even the noble concubines in the palace, let alone Marquis Anding, can save her.

What's more, because of her and the Marquis' status, they don't have access to weapons maps.

With this involvement, I'm afraid... everything will suffer.

"It can't be like this..." She murmured silently, thinking that for the sake of her son, she couldn't let her daughter speak.
