Nangong Courtyard

White cloth fluttered, the courtyard was full of wreaths and the housekeepers were full of houses, just to worship the late Nangong Xiaoxiao. A large exquisite coffin in the mourning hall was steadily parked in the center, and flowers were piled up around it.

Nangong Qiqi knelt on the spirit card and went to the copper basin to throw the dark money, and the flames burned. The people from the Nangong family kneeled on both sides of the mourning hall, with white silk tied around their waists, and looked serious and sad.

The Nangong couple had anger on one side, and Hou Qingrou stared at the coffin with red eyes, killing all the leaks.

"Butler You, has Mu Xiao been found?" Hou Qingrou spoke coldly.

Behind her was a weak old man, with his thin face and eyes staring at the front. He was the butler of Nangong Garden - You Hong.

The veteran You Hong bowed: "No trace has been found yet, and we are still catching up and investigating it."

"Butler, Butler     Not good, no more."

At this moment, someone rushed in from outside the yard. A man wearing Nangong courtyard costume came in panic. Seeing that there was a mourning hall in front of him, he realized that he was reckless and knelt on the ground all of a sudden, daring not to speak.

"What's the matter so trembling?" You Hong glanced at Hou Qingrou while talking. At this moment, she looked at her face full of dark lines. It was obvious that she was very dissatisfied with her subordinates suddenly breaking in. I pray that this kid could say something useful.

"Yang Ding was drinking in a tavern and had a conflict with someone. He was picked and cut off his feet. Go and have a look." The person who came explained in one breath.

The more You Hong heard it, the more angry he became. Yang Ding sent him to find Mu Xiao, so why did he go to the tavern to drink? When was it time? I didn't know what was going on.

"The bastard..." You Hong was furious and kicked the man, who was kicked out of the hospital.

"Butler You, is this what you said to speed up the investigation?" Hou Qingrou suddenly raised her long hair, and she stretched out her right hand, grabbed You Hong's neck from the air, gritted her teeth and said angrily.

You Hong, who was pinned by invisible power, suddenly panicked and felt that death was so close to him.

Nangong Yunmu, who had been silent, stood up: "Okay, isn't it messy enough?"

Hou Qingrou let go of You Hong and glared at Nangong Yunmu indifferently and said, "It's a grand Nangong courtyard, but you can't even catch a boy. Do you want me to go out and catch him in person? Okay, since you have no intention of taking revenge, I'll go by myself."

Hou Qingrou was furious and was broken inside. She was already sure that Mu Xiao was the murderer to kill Nangong Xiaoxiao. At this moment, she just wanted to cut Mu Xiao into pieces with her own hands.

"Madam, calm down. Even if Mu Xiao can do it, he will not dare to break into the Nangong courtyard to assassinate, unless he is a really fool. So we must calm down and think about it." Nangong Yunmu gently comforted Hou Qingrou's ear, and then said to him: "I suspect it was done by the people in our courtyard. But now Xiaoxiao's body is not cold. We must endure it first. When we find out who it is, I will cut his skin piece by piece and chop his bones."

Hou Qingrou listened, the shadow of Ling Gaoyuan flashed through her mind with a terrible guess, and said casually: "Where is the Plateau?"

"Yes, I haven't seen you yet." Nangong Yunmu only remembered that Ling Gaoyuan had not seen you for a day.

Hou Qingrou didn't say much, and her mood was slightly relieved at this time. For Xiaoxiao's sake, she didn't want to be furious at this time, but she did make her angry at Butler You. The people sent out not only did not find Mu Xiao, but also had a leisurely desire to drink in the tavern. Isn't this not to take the order seriously?

"Butler You, kill all those people!" Hou Qingrou glared at You Hong's cold eyes and ordered.

Nangong Yunmu stood aside, not speaking.

You Hong was shocked when he heard this. They were all confidants he had cultivated. How could he do this? He reached out and said, "This..."

Afterwards, Rushuang looked at You Hong with gentle and beautiful eyes gritted her teeth and growled: “Do you want me to say it again?”

Nangong Yunmu reached out to stop You Hong from talking any further: “Butler You, do as your wife said.”

"yes"

You Hong was in a heavy mood and whispered. Those people were his confidants. Now he asked him to remove them. How can he do such cruelty? It's just that the master's fate is not done.

You Hong dragged his heavy steps towards the mourning hall, and at this moment, someone came to report it again.

"Master Lord, Mr. Ling is back," the person who came to report on one knee.

Nangong Yunmu replied lightly: "Go, let him in"

The person who came to report retreated.    After a while, two servants from the Nangong Courtyard carried the unconscious Ling Gaoyuan into the yard where the mourning hall was set up.

Seeing this scene, the Nangong and his wife stood up suddenly and walked quickly to Ling Gaoyuan like the wind. At this time, Ling Gaoyuan was being carried by a net made of ropes.

"What's going on?"

Nangong Yunmu looked at Ling Gaoyuan in amazement, dressed in ragged clothes, full of torn marks. He reached out and found that Ling Gaoyuan's aura was still there, but his hands, feet, tendons and veins had all been broken.

"Someone just put him on the exterior wall and found it on the patrol," said the servant embarrassedly.

"What a cruel method, he has been ruined in this life." Nangong Yunmu gritted his teeth. He never expected that something happened to Nangong Courtyard in the past two days, which made him a little overwhelmed.

"Wake him up"

Just as Nangong Yun was attacking his heart with a fire, Hou Qingrou, behind him, stared at Ling Gaoyuan with his eyes like a sword and shouted.

"Madam, why not..."

"Wake him up"

Nangong Yunmu originally wanted to ask someone to take Ling Gaoyuan down to heal his wounds first, but seeing that Hou Qingrou was so angry that she could only follow her wishes.

Of course, the matter of helping a doctor should be left to Nangong's imperial physician Qiu Ningzhong. He walked out of the crowd, raised his cuffs, shot several golden needles into Ling Gaoyuan's chest, raised his hand and slowly released it, and the source of true energy was introduced into Ling Gaoyuan's body along the silver needle.

A few minutes later, Ling Gaoyuan coughed lightly and his eyes opened slightly. Several faces covered him above him. He glanced at him with a micron. When he saw the faces of Nangong Yunmu and Hou Qingrou, his eyes suddenly opened wide and stared at the two of them in fear. He wanted to get up, but he realized that his hands and feet had been picked up by someone, but he was protected by a stream of true energy and did not feel any pain.

"Uncle, aunt, I'm sorry, sorry..." Ling Gaoyuan didn't wait for someone to ask questions, tears poured out from his eyes, washing away the dry blood stains on his face.

"I'm sorry?" Hou Qingrou frowned.

Nangong Yunmu also felt a bad premonition when he heard this. At this moment, Nangong Qiqi, who was originally burning dark paper in front of the spirit, suddenly rushed out.

He reached out and pinched Ling Gaoyuan's neck: "You said, are you, did you kill your sister?!"

Ling Gaoyuan has been coveting his elder sister for a long time. Nangong Qiqi doesn't say it on weekdays, but his heart is like a mirror.

Slap, Nangong Yunmu suddenly slapped Nangong Qiqi in the face, and was furious: "What are you going to do?"

"Dad, this beast has been secretly..."

Nangong Qiqi was about to say it, but at this moment, Ling Gaoyuan said it first. He lay on the ground, unable to move, his eyes full of pain: "Uncle, give me some pleasure, I am not a human being, I accidentally killed my cousin, hahaha..."

Tears and snot intertwined, and Ling Gaoyuan burst into tears in an instant.

"What, he killed the lady?"

"How can you raise him since you were a child?"

"It's really a heartless thing"

Everyone looked at Ling Gaoyuan in shock. No one expected that he would be the one who killed the lady. Nangong family members immediately punished Ling Gaoyuan.

Nangong Yunmu looked at Ling Gaoyuan in shock, suddenly took a few steps back, and was about to sit back, fortunately, the servants supported him in time.

"Why? Why?!"

Hou Qingrou roared immediately, looking at Ling Ling Gaoyuan with blood-red eyes. It turned out to be the murderer of his own daughter.

"It's all her fault, it's all her fault for insisting on resisting. If she obeyed me, she wouldn't die." Ling Gaoyuan looked at the angry Hou Qingrou, and was a little confused and incoherent: "It's all your fault, you insisted on letting her marry the young master of the Yi family. It's all you who harmed him."

Ling Gaoyuan looked excited, and at this time he had forgotten what death was.

When Nangong Yunmu heard this, he ran away suddenly, kicked Ling Gaoyuan hard to the corner of the courtyard, and roared and roared: "Stop it, you rebellious, you really shouldn't have kept you for the time being, and raised you."

I remembered that his father Ling Yun betrayed Nangong Courtyard and was executed by family law. His mother was his own sister. She died of dysfunction when she gave birth to him. When she was about to ask herself to leave incense for the Ling family, she was only given to him to follow his father's surname. Unexpectedly, it has become his own scourge now.

"I regret it, I regret keeping you this disaster. I will kill you today." Nangong Yunmu's murderous intent suddenly arose, and the white cloth in the mourning hall was floating in chaos.

Everyone present was frightened. You Hong held on to Nangong Yunmu, who was about to attack Ling Gaoyuan, shouted: "Master, the corpse of a lady is not cold, don't disturb her, Master."

"Hahaha... I'm a scoundrel, haha, if you hadn't killed my father, I wouldn't have been like this." Ling Gaoyuan, who was limping in the corner of the wall, suddenly burst into a sad and wild laugh. In the courtyard, the evening breeze was bleak, and the Nangong courtyard had never been so cold.

Hou Qingrou's chest was undulating and she exclaimed, and she felt uncomfortable as if she was pressed by a stone at this moment.

She took a step forward, pulled Nangong Qiqi away, and walked to Ling Gaoyuan by herself and stopped about one meter away.

"You have to die"

Hou Qingrou made a gloomy sound.

"lady……"

You Hong had just grabbed Nangong Yunmu, and now the wife was about to take action again, but at this time she could only shout that the others did not dare to move forward at all.

"You Hong, do you want to die too?" Hou Qingrou's bone-banged voice sounded in the favorite yard. Everyone's ears were like silver needles pricked, and their heads buzzed.

"Madam, no..." Everyone whispered, hoping not to kill Ling Gaoyuan here. After all, there have been enough things that have happened in Nangong Garden in the past two days, so why just add to sadness?

But they couldn't feel that they had lost their beloved daughter. At this time, the murderer was still speaking in front of him, so why did she endure this tone?

Hu Qingrou's body burst out with blue light, and the cold air rushed towards Ling Gaoyuan's body, instantly submerging it. The moment the cold air burst out, a layer of cold air was covered with the entire yard, and everyone was trembling.

When the blue light engulfed Ling Gaoyuan, Ling Gaoyuan looked at Hou Qingrou in despair. His body was like tens of thousands of ants biting him, and his whole body was uncomfortable, and life was worse than death.

"Ah... Kill me," Ling Gaoyuan shouted loudly.

Hou Qingrou snorted coldly: "Kill you, it's so cheap you, I want you to be frozen to death slowly."

When she stopped, Ling Gaoyuan was already breathing a white breath, his face was paler than when he first came, and he was trembling all over and no one could say a word.

"Butler You, drag him down, lock him in the dungeon, and let him die. He wants to live out of the dungeon, and I want you to be buried with Xiaoxiao." Hou Qingrou walked towards the mourning hall.

Everyone was inexplicably frightened when they looked at her back, and Nangong Yunmu was no exception.
