Chapter 584: Just averagely powerful

There is no need to investigate this matter any further. The evidence is solid, and it was said by Aunt Zhao herself that the purpose was to kill the Crown Princess and the baby in her belly. The captain was not the only one who heard these words, but also the other guards.

The people bribed by Aunt Zhao also confessed how they arranged it, how they bought the kerosene in batches, and why they waited until today to do it.

After returning home, Master Pei came to his son's room and told him directly that Aunt Zhao was dead. If he insisted on getting involved in this matter and wanted to try to save Aunt Zhao, he would expel his son from the family and remove his name from the family tree! To help him and Aunt Zhao have a happy relationship!

After throwing down a sentence, she ordered people to guard the old lady's yard and not let anyone in or out! This was to prevent the old lady from making trouble. If she made trouble

at this time, it would be equivalent to dragging the Pei Mansion to support Aunt Zhao!

Zhao Chengye was the last to know!

Because Pei Shaorong stopped her and said that there was no need to tell the prince specifically. Since they were all fine, there was no need to tell the prince at this time and make him worry.

She was going to tell the prince about this after he came back.

But it was about the emperor's grandson, how could she hide it!

Seeing Zhao Chengye coming back with a dark face, Pei Shaorong felt a little guilty.

Xu Muhua stood up immediately upon seeing this: "Since the prince is back, I will go back first, you guys can chat slowly!"

Zhao Chengye glanced at her, "Concubine Xu, there is no need to go back so anxiously, sit down!"

Isn't it too late to be anxious now?

"You are getting more and more daring! You didn't inform me of such a big thing in advance, you took the risk yourself, and you even wanted to hide it afterwards! Xu Muhua, are you going to heaven?"

Zhao Chengye was a little out of control, and his voice was getting louder and louder.

Xu Muhua curled her lips, "I'll notify you, and then you'll make the arrangements. It's too late! Isn't it the priority of things? We should be flexible in our daily lives!"

Zhao Chengye pointed at her and laughed angrily: "Is this your flexibility? Take risks on your own? Do you think you are particularly powerful and smart? Can you handle any situation?"

Xu Muhua really thought about it seriously, and then said very humbly: "I'm just averagely powerful and smart! I can handle most situations."

Except for special circumstances, for example, if someone uses a human wave tactic, she will not have enough manpower for a while, and she really can't deal with it.

But Aunt Zhao is obviously not like that.

Zhao Chengye didn't expect that she actually admitted it!

She didn't hear that he was mocking her at all, right? How can you be so shameless?

"Chengye, don't scold Muhua, she did it for my own good, she--" Pei Shaorong wanted to persuade her, but Zhao Chengye's anger went to her, and she was interrupted before she could finish her words. "

And you, Crown Princess! You have always been stable, why did you follow her in making trouble? If she wanted to do it for your own good, she shouldn't have acted on her own!"

Pei Shaorong slightly widened her eyes and was stunned, as if she couldn't believe that he actually yelled at her!

Before she could react, her eyes turned red, "You, you actually scolded me? I just escaped from death, it's fine if you don't comfort me, but you scolded me?"

When Xu Muhua saw her reaction and heard these words, she shed tears of sympathy for Zhao Chengye in her heart.

Zhao Chengye's face froze, and a look of helplessness flashed across his eyes. He hurriedly explained: "I, I didn't scold you, I didn't scold you, I was just worried about you!"

"You are worried about me and you scold me? Why do you scold Mu Hua? It was Mu Hua who protected me. If Mu Hua hadn't been here today, it would be unknown whether I could sit here properly! It's okay that you don't appreciate Mu Hua, but you also scold her and me! Zhao Chengye, you're too much!"

Xu Muhua almost couldn't help laughing, and quickly turned her face away to avoid exposing herself.

Zhao Chengye secretly glared at Xu Muhua, and Xu Muhua quickly stiffened her face, with an expression of "I don't know anything, it's none of my business".

"I know she saved you, but her behavior is indeed too dangerous! What if something happens accidentally? Do you want to see her get hurt because of you?"

Zhao Chengye also knew how to control Pei Shaorong.

These words really touched her heart. Of course

she didn't want it!

Zhao Chengye quickly said: "I'm just too anxious! You are my Crown Princess, Xu Muhua is your good friend, and also my good friend. Of course I don't want you to take any risks."

"What's more, you are all women, and you don't have any martial arts skills, and you don't have anyone around you. You go to the appointment so rashly, what if the other person brings a master? Do you think Xu Muhua can beat you with her skills?"

Pei Shaorong lowered her head because of what he said.

Xu Muhua felt that if she continued to talk like this, the anger would probably burn her.

"Prince, you underestimate me too much, don't you? When I left the palace, I had already sent someone to inform my father to bring people over, just in case. Since I have the courage to go to the appointment, I will definitely be prepared!"

Pei Shaorong paused, then immediately raised her head and looked at him: "Yes, Muhua always has plans and arrangements for doing things, and she will not be rash! She considers the problem very thoroughly!" She

looked accusing: "You don't believe us at all!"

Zhao Chengye had a headache.

Alas, Arong's temperament changed so much after she became pregnant that he could hardly cope with it! It's not right to say it, and it's not right not to say it!

"Since the prince is back, I'll go back first. You two can talk slowly if you have anything to say!"

Xu Muhua shook her handkerchief and left at a brisk pace.

Let them solve their own affairs as husband and wife! Lest Zhao Chengye vent his anger on her and blame her for bringing up Arong. As

soon as she left, Pei Shaorong's emotions became even more out of control, and tears started flowing!

Zhao Chengye was really panicked this time, he walked over, picked her up, and put her on his lap.

Seeing this, the servants in the room quickly lowered their heads and retreated, closing the door.

"You're still crying, do you know that I was almost scared to tears when I heard about this? Look at you, you didn't tell me if there was anything wrong, and having Xu Muhua by your side is enough, right? Am I your husband or is she your husband?"

He had every reason to suspect that in Arong's heart, Xu Muhua was still ahead of him! Whenever she encountered something, her first reaction was to find Xu Muhua! The person she trusted the most was probably Xu Muhua!

He couldn't help but reflect on whether he had done something wrong and failed to make her trust him, which was why she
