Chapter 891: Chapter 889: Catching Mu Fei

“It’s not that, Mu Fei is being pursued by people from the Ninth Prince, and it seems he won’t escape. Grandson has come to report to you another matter, which is about Mu Fei’s background.”

Qin Muyan said in a low voice.

“Oh? Who exactly is Mu Fei, and what grudge does he have with the Great Wei Dynasty that he must put Yingxue in a deadly situation?” Qin Rulie’s brows were knitted with rage.

Qin Muyan solemnly said, “He is the successor to the Imperial Guard commander, originally the young master of the Mu Family.”

“The Imperial Guard commander? Mu Rufeng?” The Empress Dowager’s expression instantly became lucid.

An incident from over twenty years ago surfaced in her mind, and she muttered, “That year, the Imperial Guard lost Zheng Er, and in my rage, I ordered the execution of the entire Mu Family, including the Imperial Guard commander Mu Rufeng. That Mu Fei…”

So that’s it!

“Grandmother ordered the extermination of the entire Mu Family back then, Mu Fei escaped, and ended up in the Ghost Market. That’s why he wants to target me and grandmother, to have grandmother kill me by her own hand as revenge!”

The pieces fell into place in Su Yingxue’s mind.

“Bang!”

Qin Rulie slammed his fist on the table, full of fury, “Damnable! The loss of our young aunt was originally due to the negligence of the Imperial Guard commander. Having narrowly escaped death, he still dares to seek perverse revenge. I will have Mu Fei torn apart by five horses to set an example!”

Qin Muyan also said in a cold voice, “Mu Fei truly deserves death. If imperial grandmother or Yingxue suffer the slightest harm, Your Highness will ensure he never recovers!”

“We’ll talk about that after he’s caught.”

Compared to the indignation of the Qin Muyan brothers, Chu Yihan was exceptionally calm.

He picked up the teacup in his hand, took a sip, and remarked, “He should be back soon.”

“Master, Mu Fei has been captured.”

When Mo Qi came to report at Funing Palace and knelt down, he said, “Mu Fei did not make it back to the Ghost Market before being intercepted by Pavilion Master’s men. Your subordinate succeeded in capturing him.”

“Hmm.”

Chu Yihan nodded and turned to Su Yingxue, “This person, I’ll leave his fate to you.”

Before Su Yingxue could speak, Qin Muyan angrily said, “Leave him to Your Highness. After I torture him to death, I’ll crush his bones and scatter his ashes!”

“Wait, Your Highness, please hand him over to me. I want to see him. There are some questions I’d like to ask.”

Su Yingxue persuaded.

Qin Muyan, who was normally fierce and impetuous in all things, became inexplicably gentle in response to Su Yingxue’s request, “Alright, he’s yours.”

After Su Yingxue nodded her thanks, she returned to Chu Yihan’s side.

Chu Yihan took her to the old Mu residence, “The answers you’re looking for might be found here.”

Su Yingxue smiled, “Hubby knows me best.”

With nobody around, Su Yingxue felt at ease calling him hubby.

The old Mu residence had suffered a great calamity years ago and was in ruins, a testament to the grim past.

The Imperial Guard was the royal family’s defense, and back then, the Mu Family was a noble family. They were executed for losing the young princess, and Mu Fei was innocent in that regard.

However, this could not justify his becoming so ruthless and vicious later on.

Su Yingxue found several rooms that had been lived in, some traces of being tidied up, and one room that should have been Mu Fei’s bedroom.

Mo Qi was still in this bedroom and had found several dresses that belonged to girls, which he found quite distasteful, “This man’s tastes really are strange. He looks like a woman and even wears women’s dresses!”

Su Yingxue was grossed out by seeing these dresses as well.

Only Chu Yihan glanced at the dresses and said indifferently, “These are not Mu Fei’s.”

“Then whose are they?” Su Yingxue asked with a puzzled face, “Could it be that there is someone else as twisted as him around Mu Fei?”
