Chapter 532: A man dressed as a woman, but what is the conspiracy?
As expected by Mu Qingqing, about a cup of tea later, a graceful figure flew out from the backyard.
"Master, you finally came out! Tiandong thought you couldn't come out tonight!"
The little medicine boy grabbed the man's sleeve and looked him up and down.
"Tian Dong, Master, didn't I tell you that you should just go and find out where the Left Protector was in Shengjing City and the recent events that happened in Shengjing City..."
"Hey, Master Wu, we know all this best. How about we go to another place and have a good chat?"
Mu Qingqing walked out first, walked in front of Wu Jingxuan, and gave him a sly smile.
"Who are you? What do you want to do?"
When Tiandong saw so many people appearing in front of him, as if they were going to do something bad to the young master, he stood up and opened his arms to protect Wu Jingxuan behind him.
Wu Jingxuan had just met Mu Qingqing during the day, so he pushed Tian Dong's thin body away and gave him a look that urged him to stay calm.
He stepped forward and bowed to Mu Qingqing, "Nanjiang Wu Jingxuan greets the Sixth Princess."
Mu Qingqing saw Wu Jingxuan's clear and natural eyes through the bright moonlight tonight, and her eyes flashed, "Mr. Wu, you disguised yourself as a maid to come to the Qin Mansion, should you give me a reasonable explanation?"
Wu Jingxuan was still dressed as a maid. She lowered her head to look at her attire and clasped her fists again. "Please find a quiet place for me, Princess Six, so I can explain everything to you."
Since the Sixth Princess was able to stop me here, it means she came prepared. Why not go and have a chat with her? Maybe there will be unexpected news.
Tian Dong nervously grabbed Wu Jingxuan's sleeve and held him back, "Master, please don't go with them. What if..."
Wu Jingxuan shook his head at him and whispered, "Tian Dong, they are not bad people. Maybe they can help me find the answer that I have been unable to find."
"Sixth Princess, would you allow my followers to go with you?"
When Wu Jingxuan saw Tiandong grabbing his sleeves tightly and refusing to let go, helplessness appeared in his eyes.
Mu Qingqing glanced at Tian Dong jokingly, nodded, turned and walked forward.
Wu Jingxuan followed closely with Tian Dong, but they never expected that Mu Qingqing and the others finally stopped in front of the Fulinmen Inn.
Wu Jingxuan suddenly realized that his whereabouts here had been discovered by Mu Qingqing.
Tian Dong pulled Wu Jingxuan's sleeve and whispered, "Master, isn't this my residence? They..."
"Xiao Tiandong, why don't you lead the way quickly and take us up."
Nangong Qi glanced at the brightly lit gate of the Fulinmen Inn and waved to Tiandong.
Tian Dong saw Wu Jingxuan nod at him, and immediately took small steps towards the inn.
"Young Master, you are here! Would you like dinner to be sent to your room?"
The innkeeper saw Tiandong's little body and came forward with a smile on his face.
Tian Dong stopped, glanced at the people behind him, and replied loudly: "Boss, no need, I'm not hungry now."
With so many big shots following me, even if I was really hungry, I wouldn't dare to eat and drink alone in front of so many big shots.
Tiandong pursed his lips and thought gloomily, while walking towards the second floor where he lived with small steps.
In Room No. 4 on the second floor, Mu Qingqing looked at the three-star standard hardware inside and had a new opinion of Wu Jingxuan.
A master who is so good to his medicine boy should not be a bad person.
After Tiandong entered his guest room, the waiter brought him a pot of hot water.
Tiandong poured hot tea for the three people sitting there one by one, then stood behind Wu Jingxuan with a wary look on his face, ready for defense.
"Master Wu, you are a good medicine boy, loyal and protective of your master!"
Mu Qingqing took out cup after cup of milk tea from her sleeve and pushed one of them in front of Wu Jingxuan.
Mu Qingqing didn't dare to drink the tea in the inn. She would rather drink the milk tea and black coffee produced exclusively by the inn.
"Sir, Tiandong is hungry. Give this cup of hot tea to Tiandong first!"
Tian Dong suddenly stretched out his little hand from behind Wu Jingxuan and grabbed the milk tea in front of Wu Jingxuan, wanting to taste it for him to see if it was poisonous.
When Mu Qingqing used a straw to poke through the film of her coffee, she handed another clean straw to Tiandong and asked him to learn how to drink milk tea by himself.
What a cute little medicine boy, as cute as his little apprentice Du Zhong.
Wu Jingxuan looked at Mu Qingqing's deflated sleeves curiously, then picked up the milk tea on the table, poked the membrane, and started drinking it.
Wu Jingxuan firmly believed that Mu Qingqing would not poison him.
Of course, even if Mu Qingqing really poisoned the tea, he wouldn't care.
Anyway, no matter how hard I try, my body won’t make it past the next full moon night.
Mu Qingqing didn't know what he was thinking. She just wanted to finish the job quickly so that she could go back to have a good sleep.
Mu Qingqing went straight to the point, "Mr. Wu, you came to the Prime Minister's Mansion disguised as a woman, but what is your conspiracy?"
Wu Jingxuan put down the milk tea in his hand, looked at Mu Qingqing, and said calmly: "Sixth Princess, it was not my intention to dress up as a woman. It was Miss Fang who asked me to do this."
Hearing this, Mu Qingqing asked in surprise, "Miss Fang? Which Miss Fang are you talking about?"
"Of course it's Fang Jinyan, Miss Fang."
Mu Qingqing was even more confused now, "Why did Fang Jinyan ask you to dress up as a woman and pretend to be a maid to follow her?"
Wu Jingxuan turned the cup of milk tea in his hand and said calmly, "On the way to Shengjing City, I happened to rescue Madam Fang and her group who were robbed on the road. Later, I heard that they came to the capital to find Prime Minister Mu for business, so I followed their wishes and escorted them all the way to the capital. After arriving in the capital, Miss Fang was afraid of being embarrassed by Miss Fang, so she asked me to pretend to be her maid for a while until we returned to Tianyong City."
If anyone else had made such an unreasonable request to Wu Jingxuan, he would have rejected it long ago.
But the Prime Minister's Mansion, where they were about to go, was one of the destinations of this trip, so they just agreed.
Mu Qingqing and Nangong Qi looked at each other and continued to ask, "Mr. Wu, can you tell me why you came to Shengjing City this time?"
Wu Jingxuan stared at Mu Qingqing's eyes for a long time, and a hearty smile appeared on his handsome face. "Sixth Princess, if you can answer my next question, then I will know but not say, and say but not say everything."
Mu Qingqing looked back at him, her eyes as clear as water and as dark as a deep ancient well.
After a moment, Mu Qingqing readily agreed, "Okay! As long as Master Wu dares to ask, I will dare to answer. I hope that after hearing the answer, Master Wu will not break his promise."
Wu Jingxuan and Mu Qingqing are engaging in an invisible psychological warfare at this moment, and it depends on which side reveals their cards first.
After Wu Jingxuan heard that Mu Qingqing agreed to his request, he slightly exerted force on the palm of his hand holding the milk tea, and he did not notice that the milk tea leaked out of the straw.
"Sixth Princess, since you have guessed my identity, you must already know who my parents are."
Mu Qingqing nodded. It was not a secret and there was no need to hide it.
