Liu Mu, I didn't force you to agree to this, did I?
Lu Qingyan smiled secretly.
Su Han scratched his small head: [Master, why did you send him to investigate Fu Zige? Don't you already know what happened with the arranged marriage? Why do you need to investigate it again?]
"If I just tell him like this, he'll only know about it. But if he finds out himself, he'll think Fu Zige's sister is a real jerk. I'm counting on him to help the original owner get revenge; he should feel the same hatred!" Lu Qingyan blinked innocently.
“Your Highness,” Liu Mu called to Lu Qingyan, “Although I have agreed to stay by your side for four months, it would be best if I didn’t have anything urgent to attend to. The people in the Prince’s mansion are not to be trifled with. It’s fine if they show up here once or twice, but if they do it too often, I will be discovered.”
Lu Qingyan laughed and said, "You're joking, brave man. I'm not the kind of person who would use a sledgehammer to crack a nut. I certainly believe in your abilities, otherwise I wouldn't have chosen you from among so many people. You've lowered the price so much because you want to help me, how could I possibly refuse such a favor?"
As Lu Qingyan finished speaking, her soft, murmured tone carried a unique ambiguity, causing Liu Mu's ears to turn red.
Liu Mu fled in panic: "I...I'll go check right away and deliver the information to you as soon as possible."
Watching Liu Mu's departing figure, Lu Qingyan couldn't help but smile.
She smiled and said, "Actually, you don't need to look so worried. Tell me, why would I make things difficult for you?"
In fact, Liu Mu was overthinking things. If it were other matters, he might have to put in a lot of effort to investigate, but Fu Zige and Fu Lishi hadn't handled the aftermath of this matter well, so it was easy to investigate.
Therefore, after learning that Prince De, Shangguan Ren, had married Consort Rou and neglected his principal wife, Fu Ziwu, Liu Mu felt extremely disgusted with Fu Zige after learning about Fu Zige's initial plans.
What kind of older sister would resort to such scheming and trickery to plot against her own younger sister? What kind of older sister would try every means to smear her younger sister after the truth comes out? What kind of older sister would pretend to be close to someone she clearly dislikes, and that person is her own younger sister?
In this world, there is probably only one person like Fu Zige.
She has such a beautiful face, how could she have such a vicious heart? Yet many people can't see through her and flatter her like a goddess.
So what if you rob and plunder? So what if you take someone's head for money? Everyone has a chivalrous heart.
Liu Mu's sense of justice is currently at its peak, while Lu Qingyan has completely won over Liu Mu's favor in one aspect.
However, that was all in the future, two days later. Shangguan Ren, having enjoyed a wonderful wedding night, slowly awoke and prepared to attend court. Consort Rou was also due to go to Baihe Courtyard to pay her respects.
"Rou'er," Shangguan Ren rubbed Rou'er's face against his skin and whispered, "It's still early, so you should sleep a little longer. There's no rush to pay your respects; the Princess Consort may not even be up yet."
"Your Highness," Rou'er turned her head away shyly, pouting as she complained, "What nonsense are you talking about? My sister, the Princess Consort, is the mistress of the manor; she wouldn't be so tactless. Don't slander her. Perhaps she's already up and waiting for me. If I'm late, I'll go and complain to her that you bullied me!"
