Chapter 186 Speaking out will make many people feel wronged
Axue didn't say anything, but just pulled her sister to kneel down. Mu Qingyan went to help her up, but Axue grabbed her hand, shook her head gently, knelt down two steps back, kowtowed three times, and then pulled her sister up.
"Miss Mu, you are so kind to me. Jiang Xue will never forget it! Please forgive me for my previous disrespect to you..."
Mu Qingyan smiled and shook her head, "It's all in the past. You were once stuck in the mud and had a hard time, but now the clouds have cleared and you are reborn. This is God's favor to you, and also the blessing of your parents and brothers. Go back to Tongzhou and live a good life. The court will also do its best to ensure that you have enough food and clothing."
Axue nodded, took her sister and slowly left.
When he reached the door, he looked back for a long time before saying, "Let's go..."
Mu Qingyan was worried that it would be unsafe for the two girls to travel alone, and that no one would take care of them along the way.
So the two coachmen were Prince Ling's subordinates, and she also asked Yueban to go with them to escort them back to Tongzhou safely, see that they were settled, and then return to the capital to report.
The situation in Kyoto was tense these days, and the ministers were trembling with fear when they went to court, especially Duke Fuguo. Mu Qingyan threw a piece of charcoal with sparks behind his butt. He didn't know when the wind would blow and the charcoal would catch fire. When the fire burned his butt, he would be caught off guard, so he lived in fear all day long.
Even when he occasionally met her when he went out, he didn't dare to look up at his nominal daughter.
Mu Qingyan looked at his guilty look and couldn't help but roll her eyes.
He hurriedly got on the carriage and said, "Let's go to Gu's house."
The carriage started slowly and left the Duke's Mansion.
At this hour, several elders of the Gu family who were in the court had not returned from court yet.
Mu Qingyan was very confused along the way. She didn't know how to explain this matter so that the Gu family would suffer less blow.
She racked her brains and used all the education she had received in her previous life, but she still couldn't come up with a suitable and tactful excuse that would not hurt others.
She sighed heavily. Her limbs, which had been tense, felt stiff and numb. She adjusted her sitting position and leaned her back against the car.
My hands and feet also began to weaken.
Yuzhan handed over a piece of sweet cake, "Girl, you haven't had much for breakfast, have a piece of sweet cake, your mouth will feel sweet and your heart will not feel bitter..."
Sweet in the mouth, no bitter in the heart...
She also said this to Prince Ling.
She took it with a slight smile, put it to her lips and took a bite. The sweet and soft taste spread in her mouth, and the haze in her mind seemed to be really blown away.
The sweet cake is finished, and the problems that need to be faced still need to be faced.
"Yuzhan, if there is something that you don't speak out, you will never be able to comfort the wronged, nor will you be able to punish the person who did something wrong. But if you speak out, it will hurt many people. What will you do?"
After hearing this, Yuzhan blinked her eyes, then said, "If the extremely evil people are allowed to continue to be at large, it will also hurt those who have been wronged..."
These simple words were like enlightenment to Mu Qingyan, who had been struggling, and suddenly she woke up.
Yes, when you listen to the Gu family talking about Gu Qingqin, you can feel that she is a person who dares to love and hate, and is unwilling to compromise with worldly prejudices.
She got pregnant by chance through a chance encounter. She could have kept it a secret if she wanted to, but she chose to confess.
I just hope to live an open and honest life.
Even though it was so hard and she endured verbal humiliation from her husband, she never regretted having an affair with that man and having a child with him.
But if she knew that her husband had destroyed her in such a despicable way in order to cover up his crime and let his family keep it secret, she would be so angry that she would pick up a knife and kill Musnian immediately.
Instead of compromising just because they have lost their innocence and are too ashamed to tell others about it!
She even asked the Gu family to help cover it up for her!
Everyone in the Gu family has developed fortitude on the battlefield.
It was she who thought the Gu family was too fragile...
A woman's innocence is never hidden under her skirt.
If Mu Sinian could not accept her confession, he could just divorce her and marry someone else.
But he didn't, because he needed to be tied to Gu Qingqi in order to keep his wealth and glory! He designed Gu Qingqi to lose her chastity, but felt at ease using his crime to hurt and humiliate her.
If Gu Qingqi wasn't strong enough, she would have died under such pressure before she could even give birth.
Mu Qingyan couldn't even imagine how Gu Qingqin had managed to endure those ten months amidst the guilt, shame, and the weirdness of Mu Sinian in an era where women valued their reputation more than their lives...
The carriage stopped while she was in a state of confusion.
She sat for a long time before she sighed and got off the car.
When the doorman saw it was her, he hurried over to report.
Mu Qingyan had already climbed the stairs and walked in slowly.
Her grandmother was old and slept little. After breakfast, she was taking a walk in the garden.
Several aunts accompanied him.
Now that it is non-war, they have not had such leisure time for a long, long time.
Mu Qingyan stopped far away and just watched. If she came to disrupt such a peaceful morning at this time, would it be very unfilial?
Third Madam Ning inadvertently looked down and saw her. She smiled even more and waved at her while walking towards her quickly. "The doorman said you were back, and I was wondering why you hadn't come in for so long? Did you get lost?"
Mu Qingyan bent her knees slightly, "Third aunt..."
Ning took her hand affectionately and said, "We are family, no need to be polite. Come on, go and talk to your grandmother. She has been missing you these past few days..."
Mu Qingyan stepped forward and greeted them one by one.
The old lady took her hand and went into the flower hall and sat down. There was a charcoal fire in the room, making it warm.
"Look at you, why are you wearing so little? Your hands are cold..."
The old lady rubbed her hands, her eyes filled with distress.
"Grandma, I am a martial artist, so I am not afraid of this cold. My hands have been like this since I was a child, and no matter how thick the clothes I wear, they can't keep them warm."
The old lady patted the back of her hand and said, "You are a doctor yourself, can't you prescribe a couple of medicines for yourself?"
Mu Qingyan suddenly acted like a spoiled child, leaning her head on the old lady's shoulder, and spoke with a nasal tone, "Grandma, tell me, if I say something that makes you and grandpa unhappy, will you no longer like Yan'er in the future?"
The old lady's hands, which were full of traces of time, stroked her pink cheeks. "What nonsense are you talking about? Since we returned to Beijing, you have helped us to block so many open and secret attacks. In your heart, are your grandparents such unreasonable people? You get upset just because you say a few words?"
In the flower hall, the grandparents and grandchildren were snuggling together.
