Rebirth: Missing the Beloved

After Mu Ling Shao and Zhou Chenxi separated, Mu Ling Shao came to the Du residence.

Just as they arrived at the Du Family's garden, they bumped into Mu Qing and Du Zhong.

"Uncle."

Mu Ling Shao lowered his head and saluted. Mu Qing nodded and asked curiously, "Ling Shao is here? Do you have something you need to discuss with Master Du here? "

Mu Lingshao nodded. He looked at Du Zhong and said, "Regarding this matter, I'm afraid only Prime Minister Du can help me …"

When Mu Lingshao told him everything, other than Ya He's real identity and Mu Yufeng, Du Zhong's face also showed a shocked and uncertain expression after hearing the ins and outs of what had happened.

"Young Master Mu, is that true?"

Seeing Mu Lingshao nod his head, Mu Qing let out a long sigh, "It is truly a sin. Does this mean that the wooden boat was implicated by Ya He?"

As he spoke, he glanced at Du Zhong sympathetically.

If such a thing were to happen to his daughter, and she was implicated by someone else, wouldn't she be angered to death?

Du Zhong's complexion didn't look too good either. On one hand, he felt that because Du Muzhou was involved in this matter, he would be mocked by others and would not be able to raise his head in front of his comrades.

On the other hand, he felt that if he were to talk about this matter with the people of the imperial court, it was very likely that his position would be left unprotected.

Mu Lingshao looked at Du Zhong's expression and lowered his eyes, causing his expression to be unclear.

Of course, he didn't think that it was because Du Mu Zhou had been implicated that his expression was bad. He didn't know how unhappy Du Mu Zhou was.

"Thank you, Young Noble Mu, for telling this old man about this matter. Otherwise, my wooden boat would have been wronged for nothing!"

As he spoke, Du Zhong pretended to be sad and wiped the corner of his mouth with his sleeve. When Mu Qing saw this, he immediately consoled, "Prime Minister Du, you need to take care of your body. The wooden boat is waiting for you to worry!"

When Du Zhong heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched. Why was Mu Qing so comforting?!

Mu Lingshao looked at Du Zhong's hypocritical appearance. There were some things that were inconvenient for him to say, so he would not say them. However, he had to get Du Zhong's help in this matter, or else who knows what would happen.

Seeing Mu Qing still continue to speak, Du Zhong quickly told Mu Lingshao about the situation today in the imperial court.

"Does everyone have anything else to report to their loved ones?"

The Emperor surveyed the crowd. The officials looked at each other, but no one had any intention of standing up. In the end, Mu Yufeng stood up.

"Father, this son has something to report!"

"Oh? "Tell me about it."

"Earlier, the news of Hua Kui's poisoning death spread like wildfire. I believe the other adults should have heard of it as well."

Mu Yufeng looked at the surrounding officials as he spoke. The other officials nodded their heads, indicating that they had indeed heard of him.

One of the officials didn't understand what Mu Yufeng meant, so he walked out and questioned, "The Sixth Prince's flowery appearance in the imperial court is such a disgrace to the imperial court!"

Mu Yufeng shook his head and said to the official, "Ah, Sir Wu, how can this be said to have tainted the imperial court? After all, this is not a simple matter, it involves Prime Minister Du! "

The Emperor narrowed his eyes and leaned back. He looked at Du Zhong and saw his expression. He then signaled Mu Yufeng to continue speaking.

"Master Du?" Sir Wu was momentarily at a loss. Didn't they say that they were the Courtesan Belle of the Dreamsky Forest? How did it involve Prime Minister Du?

Mu Yufeng's lips curled up into a smile as he slowly said, "It is said that Hua Kui's death was caused by the Snow Pear Paste from a cultivator pavilion under the name of Miss Du."

These words caused a huge uproar.

The crowd burst into a flurry of discussion. They didn't expect that this was related to Du Zhong.

As for Du Zhong, he felt his face becoming extremely anxious. He felt that everyone was making fun of him. At the same time, he felt a little angry at Mu Yufeng. What did he say? He had to say it!

The emperor coughed and the imperial court instantly quieted down.

"Du Aimin, is this true?"

When Du Zhong heard the Emperor's words, he had no choice but to step forward.

"Reporting to your majesty, what the Sixth Prince said is the truth."

"Oh? Then, is the daughter of the Official Du also guilty? "

When Du Zhong heard this, he hurriedly knelt down and cried out to the emperor, "Your majesty, that's impossible! Your humble daughter has such a temper! This humble subject knows that she definitely won't do anything that would harm others!"

The Emperor didn't look at Du Zhong who was kneeling on the ground. Instead, he looked at Mu Yufeng and asked, "My son, what are your thoughts?"

Mu Yufeng hurriedly clasped his hands together and said, "Reporting to Imperial Father, this son feels that it is necessary to bring the matter to the justice courts for investigation. This way, it will naturally be clear whether Miss Du is innocent or not."

"What do you think of all your loved ones?"

All the officials were well aware that the Emperor had agreed to the proposal. He just wanted someone to review it.

"This humble subject feels that this is a good method."

"This subject will undergo reconsideration!"

The emperor nodded in satisfaction and said, "Alright! Then we'll leave it to the justice courts. "

The Supreme Court's young official hated Mu Yufeng to death for bringing up this suggestion. It was a very difficult task, but what could he do? He could only agree with tears in his eyes.

After the assembly, Du Zhong didn't expect Mu Yufeng to come over himself.

"Prime Minister Du, don't worry. The justice courts will definitely give justice to Miss Du!"

Seeing Mu Yufeng say this with such sincerity, Du Zhong almost vomited blood. He could only grudgingly say something against his will.

"This old subject thanks Your Highness first, but this old subject still has urgent matters to attend to …"

"Oh, then I won't hold up Prime Minister Du."

Du Zhong perfunctorily nodded his head a few times before leaving in a hurry.

Mu Yufeng, on the other hand, stared at Du Zhong's back and muttered a few words. He didn't know what could cause Prime Minister Du to be so anxious.

This Mu Yufeng probably wanted to use this matter to curry favor with Prime Minister Du. However, he had forgotten how much Prime Minister Du valued his reputation. Mu Yufeng's actions could only be said to be like stealing chickens or eating rice.

Mu Yufeng, who was in the imperial court, immediately made an appointment with Du Ruanyu to travel the lake.

"What has happened to make the Sixth Prince so happy today?"

Coincidentally, a gentle breeze blew over, messing up Du Ruanyu's hair. Just as Du Ruanyu was about to tidy it up, Mu Yufeng grabbed her hand and gently tidied it up for her.

Looking at Du Ruanyu's flushed face, Mu Yufeng chuckled, making her feel even more shy.

In order to ease the atmosphere, Mu Yufeng took the initiative to tell Du Ruanyu about what happened in the Imperial Court this morning. He emphasized that Du Mu Zhou would be proven to be innocent.

Mu Yufeng naturally felt that Du Ruanyu would be happy as well. He felt that since they were sisters, their relationship would definitely be better. However, he didn't see the expression of Du Ruanyu behind him.
