Mrs. Zhou gently draped clothes over Mu Lianxiao: "You said it was an insider who attacked you?"
Mu Lianxiao lowered his eyelids and said, "When I knocked him off the horse, I saw he was wearing our army's leather armor."
Mrs. Zhou pressed her lips tightly.
Mu Lianxiao saw Madam Wu also looked pensive, and signaled to Nanny Shan.
Nanny Shan understood and, along with Banqiao, withdrew, one guarding the outer room, the other the door.
Madam Wu, seeing this, sat up straight: "Lian Xiao, is there something important you need to say?"
"Yes," Mu Lianxiao replied solemnly, "When in Tong City, my elder brother and I went to Qinglian Temple to see Mu Tang."
The name Mu Tang was like a knife, causing Madam Wu's heart to clinch painfully.
She had a sense that what Mu Yuanjing wanted to say before dying might be the same thing Mu Lianxiao wanted to convey.
