Chapter 679 The One Seeking Death Is Here (4)

Mu Zhongqing thought that he would not be able to escape the prison this time, but he was out of danger overnight, and the two shops and farms in his family were also unsealed, and everything returned to normal!

It was Master Huo Yuan who came to Yingtian Prefecture to pick him up. After not seeing him for a few days, Master Huo was still as handsome, gentle and elegant as before. He was wearing a plain white robe without patterns, which made him look like a banished immortal without any dust. He was beautiful, but too plain.

"Uncle Mu, you are frightened. Congratulations on being safe!"

When Huo Yuan saw Mu Zhongqing, he immediately got off the carriage and bowed to him.

Mu Zhongqing returned the greetings repeatedly, saying, "I don't deserve it!"

Originally, he thought that if he didn't die in prison, he would be afraid of being beaten. He had heard how the jailers persecuted prisoners, so he was ready to be beaten. Who knew that not only did he not suffer at all, but the jailer who supervised him also bought wine and meat for him to eat, and treated him with respect like an ancestor.

Huo Yuan was puzzled, and after several inquiries, the jailer finally told the truth.

It turned out that it was Master Huo Yuan who rewarded the jailers who supervised Mu Zhongqing, and rewarded each of them with ten taels of silver, asking them to take good care of Mu Xiucai for a night. The jailers were all low-ranking soldiers, and their annual salary could not even earn ten taels of silver. Therefore, when they saw the big silver, they were so happy that their hearts were itching, and they wished they could offer Mu Zhongqing a gift. Not only did they buy wine and meat for him and carefully flattered him, but a jailer also brought a set of clean bedding from home for him to sleep on!

Mu Zhongqing was naturally grateful to Huo Yuan after learning the truth. So as soon as he came out, he couldn't wait to thank him.

Huo Yuan stopped him and said solemnly: "Uncle Mu, please follow me to Huguo Temple. There are some things that need your help!"

Mu Zhongqing came out of the prison and wanted to go home to report his safety first, but seeing Huo Yuan's serious words and because he was rescued by him, he couldn't refuse, so he had to get in the car and let him go!

On the way, Huo Yuan slowly told Mu Zhongqing about Mei's death, and said that Du and others were now living in his place. As for Wen'er being beaten and the shop being sealed, he didn't say it. Anyway, Wen'er had woken up and the shop was unsealed. It didn't matter whether he said it or not, so why bother to say it and make him upset?

Mu Zhongqing was very sad to hear that Mei had passed away. Mei had suffered all her life, and this was her fate. Not to mention that she was Du's mother, even if she was an unrelated person, he would be moved when he saw her, not to mention that she was Mei Niang's mother. He loved his wife and naturally respected Mei Niang's mother. Therefore, he was particularly concerned about Mei's future.

Caiwei learned about Mei's death the next morning. When she first received the letter, she was shocked for a while and almost rushed out to hire a carriage to return to Beijing. Fortunately, her life experience of more than 40 years made her calm down quickly and did not do anything impulsive!

When she left home, her grandmother was still fine and smiled and told her to come back early. Now she is separated from her husband and wife. How can she not be sad?

Because of sadness, Caiwei took the parrot to the street outside, firstly to relax and relieve her inner sadness, and secondly, the parrot flew all night, so she should find some delicious food for it to reward it!

The streets of Qingyun Town were as prosperous as ever, with vendors shouting loudly and peddlers carrying poles swaying on the streets...

In the past, these new little things were enough to attract Caiwei's attention, but today was different. Since she learned of Mei's death, her heart has been filled with waves of sadness, and nothing can attract her.
