On the Day the Scumbag Got Married, I Lay Flat and Became His Sister-in-law Chapter 399

Chapter 399 A closer look at Mr. Yan

Seeing this, Gu Xiyan started to eat with peace of mind. While she was eating, she kept an eye on Zhou Mu.

 Zhou Mu just looked at her coldly, which made her a little uncomfortable.

Thinking about the problem from his standpoint, he must feel uncomfortable because the person next to him is hiding something important.

 It wasn't until Gu Xiyan had eaten and drank that Zhou Mu went to look at the case.

The room was very quiet, only the sound of flipping through files could be heard from time to time.

 Gu Xiyan thought about it for a long time, then broke the silence and said: "It's not that I don't trust the young master, but there are some things that are difficult to talk about. When the time comes in the future, if the young master still wants to know something, I will tell the young master."

 But not at this time, but when he becomes the master of the Jin Dynasty and will not be restrained by others. By then, Zhou Xing is no longer a threat to Zhou Mu.

 Zhou Mu's eyes fell on the file, but his heart was no longer calm.

 “Go away, I don't want to see your face now.”

As expected, Gu Xiyan walked farther away and stood with her back to Zhou Mu. She felt very good.

 Zhou Mu laughed angrily when he saw her acting like a naughty girl. She does catch his words, she is smart.

Seeing that there was no movement behind her, Gu Xiyan quietly turned around and looked into Zhou Mu's dark eyes. She immediately retracted her head, knowing that he was still angry.

 She usually kicks him out of bed when she's angry, but she doesn't know if he will also kick her out of bed when he's angry.

She stood for a while and then couldn't help but yawn.

 I woke up too early today. I was exhausted physically and mentally in the morning. Now I feel relaxed and want to doze off.

 “I'm going out for a trip, don't follow me!”

Zhou Mu's voice suddenly sounded, causing Gu Xiyan's sleepy eyes to fly away in an instant.

She watched Zhou Mu pass by her and asked curiously: "Where are you going, Master?"

 Zhou Mu ignored her, walked away quickly, and quickly disappeared from her sight.

 Gu Xiyan slumped her shoulders and thought to herself that she didn't know if it was too late to prepare special clothes to please him.

Seeing Gu Xiyan come out, Qiushi immediately stepped forward and asked, "Has Your Highness not forgiven the girl yet?"

"No, the young master doesn't want to talk to me. He just said he wanted to leave the house and wouldn't let me follow him." Gu Xiyan was discouraged for a while, then suddenly cheered up: "It doesn't matter, I will think of ways to please the young master. It's always been easy for the young master. If you are soft-hearted, you may forgive me soon.”

Qiushi secretly thought that His Highness is easily soft-hearted? Only their girls would have such an illusion.

No one in the entire Zhou Dynasty knows that His Highness should stay away from strangers and never blink an eye when he is cruel to others. He looks like a banished immortal, but he is cruel and ruthless.

 His Highness is only easy to talk to in front of these girls.

Gu Xiyan returned to Qishiyuan, planning to make a special piece of clothing like last time to please Zhou Mu. As for the fact that Mr. Yan is her, it is really not appropriate to say it now. When she and Zhou Mu go to Suzhou, she will need to use Mr. Yan's identity to give Zhou Mu some hints.

If she told Zhou Mu that she was Mr. Yan, how would she explain her unpredictable future?

Gu Xiyan sighed softly and decided to try the beauty trap tonight to deal with Zhou Mu. She was afraid that even the beauty trick wouldn't work this time...

Then Zhou Mu left the Zhou Mansion and went to Dali Temple. Zhao Qingqi just returned to Dali Temple. When he saw Zhou Mu suddenly arrived, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute him.

"Master Zhao, there is no need to be polite. I came here to know the results of the autopsy." Although Zhou Mu looked cold and distant, he never acted like a prince.

Zhao Qingqi did not dare to be negligent and answered truthfully: "At present, it is only preliminary diagnosis that the deceased did seem to have died of fire and suffocation. As for more specific details, more specific details need to be carefully investigated, and the identity of the deceased is not yet known."

He just didn't understand why the eldest prince was so concerned about this case. Could this case have anything to do with His Highness?

He waited for a while but saw no reaction from Zhou Mu. He looked over curiously and saw that Zhou Mu was still distracted.

“I wonder if your highness has any other instructions?” Zhao Qingqi coughed lightly.

Zhou Mu then seemed to come to his senses and asked casually, "Did Mr. Zhao encounter any suspicious people when he rushed to the scene of the crime?"

The main purpose of his trip was to know why Xu Yanqing saw Gu Xiyan, but Zhao Qingqi, who was with Xu Yanqing, did not. This was illogical.

 Zhao Qingqi was stunned by Zhou Mu's question.

 He carefully recalled what happened on the way to the southern suburbs, and suddenly remembered something.

Zhou Mu carefully observed Zhao Qingqi's expression and knew what Zhao Qingqi was thinking of.

"Xiaguan met a man half a mile away from the scene of the crime. The man was at the embankment. At that time, Xiaguan was busy rushing to the scene and didn't think much about it. But Ayan...that is, Mr. Xu Yanqing went to It took some time to find that person, and I don't know if that person is suspicious. Maybe His Highness can ask Mr. Xu." Zhao Qingqi told everything he knew.

 Hearing this, Zhou Mu's mood was ups and downs.

 He was wondering if the man Xu Yanqing saw might be Xi Yan.

His emotions were boiling, but he didn't show it on his face. He just said: "Master Zhao, continue to be busy, I won't bother you anymore."

“Your Highness, walk slowly!” Zhao Qingqi still respectfully sent Zhou Mu out of the Dali Temple official office.

 After leaving Dali Temple in the evening of Zhou Dynasty, he went to Hubu Yamen.

Xu Yanqing was sitting at the desk in a daze, until someone blocked the light in front of his eyes. He looked up and met Zhou Zhou's dim eyes.

 “Come out, I have something to ask you.” Zhou Mu put down these words, turned around and walked away.

Xu Yanqing stood up silently, feeling that Zhou Mu must be here for Xi Yan.

Zhou Mu probably doesn't know Xi Yan's other identity yet. He was just thinking about why Xi Yan used the identity of Mr. Yan to associate with Rong Song. Should he investigate Mr. Yan carefully?

 The two men left the Hubu Yamen one after another, and later found a quiet and uninhabited place to talk.

"When you saw Xi Yan, why didn't you tell her clearly about her dressing up as a man?" Zhou Mu's eyes were as sharp as a knife, as if they were falling on Xu Yanqing's face, wondering if he was feeling guilty.

“It's normal for a prince's concubine to dress up as a man when she goes out. I thought that His Highness would guess it even if I didn't tell her.” Xu Yanqing suddenly wanted to laugh: “It seems that Your Highness doesn't know the prince's concubine that well.”

 The fact that Xi Yan is Mr. Yan must be the real reason why Zhou Mu came back to find him.

Zhou Mu was hurt by Xu Yanqing's words. What he cared about was that he was obviously Xi Yan's husband, but Xu Yanqing, an outsider, seemed to know more than he, the person beside him, knew more.

No matter how unhappy he felt, he would not let Xu Yanqing have the opportunity to see his joke.

"Xiyan puts me first in everything. Something like this happened today. She didn't want me to worry, so she didn't want to say anything. She has always been reserved, but today she even used a beauty trap to please me. Some of them She didn't want to talk about it, and I didn't want to embarrass her, so I had to find the reason myself. Our relationship life has been very good since we got married, so Sir Xu doesn't have to worry about it." Zhou Mu looked at Xu Yanqing indifferently.
