It’s clear that Bei Qingyue’s mood is very poor, and Nangong Yun doesn’t dare to say much.

Afraid to accidentally touch on a sensitive topic.

Bei Qingyue glanced at her, a complex expression flashed in her eyes.

This child, has she finally learned filial piety after experiencing so much?

She raised her hand, picked up the cup of water, and drank two sips.

Warm water went down her stomach, and she felt much better.

Bei Qingyue looked at Nangong Yun and said solemnly, “Zicheng is dead.”

“What?” Nangong Yun exclaimed, completely in disbelief. “When did this happen?”

“He was just discovered in the back mountain.” At the mention of this, Bei Qingyue immediately felt powerless.

Too many things have happened to the Bei family recently, at this moment, she is utterly exhausted.

“How did Cousin Zicheng end up in the back mountain?”

Nangong Yun looked shocked, also seeming puzzled.

“Hasn’t everyone been searching for him? Was he always in the back mountain?”

Bei Qingyue didn’t reply, she wanted to know this too.

At this time, the sound of footsteps was heard in the yard.

A subordinate hurriedly ran into the hall.

“Madam.” He saluted Bei Qingyue.

“What is it?”

That brother said, “Today, while we were searching in the back mountain, we happened to see Mr. Mu Xiaoyao coming down from the mountain.”

“Not long after, a brother saw Mr. Zicheng from a distance.”

“You mean Mu Xiaoyao?” Bei Qingyue stood up and looked at the subordinate.

“It’s him.”

Bei Qingyue tightened her fingers, a hint of blame flashed in her eyes.

“Why are you reporting now?”

“Well…”

The brother looked as if he had made a mistake, his face showing embarrassment.

“I just realized the two things might be related, so I came to report.”

“When I ran into him, he said he was looking for Mr. Zicheng.”

Bei Qingyue raised her eyebrows, sitting on the sofa with her brows tightly furrowed.

How could Mu Xiaoyao’s timing of going to the back mountain be so coincidental, that he even directly said he was looking for Bei Zicheng?

If he did it, would he openly tell others?

Nangong Yun’s eyes flickered and she looked at Bei Qingyue, “Mom, I think Mu Xiaoyao is suspicious.”

“He might deliberately tell others he went to the back mountain to find Cousin Zicheng, to mislead people.”

“The more he does this, the less people would suspect him.”

Bei Qingyue nodded, Nangong Yun’s explanation also made sense.

If she hadn’t run into her subordinates, Mu Xiaoyao probably wouldn’t have said it.

Her eyes flashed as she looked at the brother and said, “Assemble a team immediately, and come with me to Bi Luo Pavilion.”

“Yes.”

Dozens of brothers quickly assembled, following Bei Qingyue, they marched grandly towards Bi Luo Pavilion.

…

“Bringing so many people to my Bi Luo Pavilion, what is it now?”

Seeing Bei Qingyue barge into the hall with so many people, Bei Tianyou, who was sitting on the sofa, slightly furrowed his thick eyebrows.

It’s only been a few days, and this is her second time surrounding Bi Luo Pavilion.

If he didn’t know what happened, he absolutely couldn’t endure it.

Even if that person is his aunt.

“Where is Mu Xiaoyao? Get him out here.”

Bei Qingyue spoke directly, usually she still had some reservations about him.

But, today something big happened, she doesn’t mind offending Bei Tianyou with her words.

Upon hearing the commotion outside, Baili Xia quickly stepped out of the room.

“Brother You, what’s going on?”

Coming beside Bei Tianyou, Baili Xia swept her eyes over the people in the hall, asking puzzledly.

Bei Qingyue’s visits to Bi Luo Pavilion usually have something to do with her, what could have offended her this time?

It seems, she hasn’t seen her in the past few days.
