Recently, rumors had been circulating in the city: Miss Chu Rou had been assassinated, and the killer was most likely Miss Mo Qingyan.
Ah Nuo heard this rumour when she was going out to purchase items. She didn't even need to buy anything as she hurried back to the residence to look for Mo Qingyan.
"Young miss, young miss!" The Ah Nuo practically jogged back into the Warm Pavilion. At that time, Mo Qingyan was still embroidering clothes for Jiang Wan, and ever since he was reborn, embroidery had become a way for Mo Qingyan to relieve the pain in his heart.
"What's wrong? "He's in such a state of panic." Mo Qingyan put down the line in his hands, and casually placed the embroidery on a basket at the side.
"Miss, there are rumors outside again."
Ah Nuo stood in front of Mo Qingyan, and only after calming his breathing down did he speak out anxiously.
Mo Qingyan could not help but frown: "What kind of rumor is this?"
In the past few days, Mo Qingyan had been busy building up his own power, so he did not know anything about what was happening in the outside world.
However, he hadn't done much in the past few days, and he rarely even had anything to do with the outside world.
"Miss, it's about the Miss Chu." Ah Nuo looked around, and after confirming that there was no one around, he whispered softly into Mo Qingyan's ears: "It's said that Miss Chu was assassinated, the assassin was sent by young miss."
Mo Qingyan frowned, as expected, Chu Rou still wanted to make a move on him. Although he said that he had to get evidence, but Mo Qingyan still knew the fearsome logic behind everyone's words.
"Even if it's just rumors, there should at least be some truth to it, what reason do I have to send people to assassinate Chu Rou?"
Mo Qingyan looked at Ah Nuo, obviously waiting for his explanation.
"Miss, they said it was because of the Poetry Assemble. That's why the young miss sent people to assassinate Miss Chu. "
Mo Qingyan was simply speechless, only Chu Rou could think of such a lousy reason. However, the people outside actually believed it.
"Any evidence?" Mo Qingyan looked at Ah Nuo, since the citizens had already believed it. Even if there wasn't enough evidence, Chu Rou would definitely take it out.
"I heard that the assassin was killed on the spot by a servant, and a letter personally written by the young lady was found on his body." And, the token the Miss gave to that servant is her personal jade pendant. "
Ah Nuo was obviously thinking about how Mo Qingyan lost his jade pendant a few days ago.
Thinking about it like this, Ah Nuo couldn't help but look at Mo Qingyan with extreme anxiety.
"Jade pendant?" It was obvious that Mo Qingyan and Ah Nuo were thinking of the same thing.
She and Ah Nuo looked at each other, clearly seeing the doubt and heaviness in each other's eyes.
"Ah Nuo, go call Zhi Xia and the other person over." Mo Qingyan suddenly felt that Chu Rou had come prepared. She had to prepare in advance.
At the same time, there were servants reporting this matter in Lin Zifeng's Noble Heir Palace.
Lin Zifeng frowned as he sat in his study: "Is the news accurate?" Lin Zifeng asked the servant, who nodded immediately.
"Noble Heir, the news has already spread outside. It is said that Miss Mo is jealous of Miss Chu's talent. "
Lin Zifeng could not help but sneer. Talent? Jealous of the woman's venomous heart.
"I know, you did well in this matter." Just go to the housekeeper and receive his reward. "
Lin Zifeng waved his hand and dismissed the servant. When he was alone again in the study room. Lin Zifeng then took out a handkerchief from his chest.
It was a plain white handkerchief, and it was unknown what was wrapped inside. In such a small area, Lin Zifeng only stared at it. After a long time, the door slowly opened.
Inside, shockingly, was Mo Qingyan's jade pendant that he had accidentally picked up the other time.
At this moment, he looked at the jade pendant with some regret, and gently caressed it with his fingers.
"Go, hand this jade pendant over to her. She must remember that she owes me this favor. " Lin Zifeng wrapped the jade pendant properly.
Just a slight fluctuation in the air caused another person to appear within the room.
He respectfully bowed to Lin Zifeng, and then took the jade and disappeared.
"Yan, what's going on with the rumors outside?" Jiang Wan endured for a few days but in the end, he was still worried about Mo Qingyan's safety. She had no choice but to rush to Mo Qingyan's place.
"Mother, you should know your daughter as well. All day long is spent embroidering in the pavilion, where would they have the time to send assassins to assassinate Miss Chu? "
Mo Qingyan knew that Jiang Wan was extremely worried about her, but she would probably need to spend more effort to prove her innocence.
"Yan, listen to the rumors. The assassin who was captured and killed has your personal jade pendant in his bosom." Jiang Wan believed that his daughter would never do something like this, but he could not help but worry for her.
"Mother, didn't I lose my personal jade pendant?" As for who it was, he even used it to frame his daughter. Your daughter is indeed clueless. "
Mo Qingyan comforted Jiang Wan's emotions and paused for a moment before continuing, "But don't worry Mother, our daughter will definitely not be framed."
Jiang Wan listened, how could there be anything that he did not understand?
After all, they were the women in the backyard, even if he never hurt them. How could he not know anything about these women's scheming?
"My poor daughter, I have truly wronged you." Jiang Wan's eyes reddened, she had never fought over it in the Minister's Mansion.
Although it was the main wife, she had never treated her son so harshly.
However, those two people were still not satisfied. A lot of things are going to happen.
But now, before his daughter could even marry into the royal family, the dirty tricks of these people had already begun.
"Mother, please relax. Your daughter naturally has her own solution! " Mo Qingyan gently urged Jiang Wan, and repeatedly assured himself that he would definitely be alright. Only then, did Jiang Wan feel at ease.
After sending off Jiang Wan, Mo Qingyan's expression immediately turned cold. The reason why she said that to Jiang Wan was only to console him. How could it be so easy to dispel suspicion?
"Miss Mo!" The sudden voice startled Mo Qingyan, and he stared blankly for a few seconds at the man in black who had suddenly appeared in mid air.
"Who are you? "Who sent them?" Mo Qingyan's heart rose to her throat.
"Miss Mo, no need to panic. I am from the Noble Heir. This is what Noble Heir told me to give to you. "
This man passed the handkerchief that he had always held in his hands to Mo Qingyan, then looked at Mo Qingyan and said: "Noble Heir said, I want you to remember this time. This Miss Mo owes us Noble Heir a favor."
