Murong Xiao sneered in his heart: There will be many things that will make you angry to death in the future. Today is just the beginning.
"Dad, who is so powerful?" Murong Qingyun couldn't help but speak.
In his subconscious, the Marshal's Mansion was an impenetrable fortress. For years, no one had been able to escape unscathed. Yet, today, not only did this group escape unscathed, they also burned down the study and stole the poison. How arrogant!
Murong Qingyu took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and said, "You all should leave first. I have my own ideas on this matter."
When they arrived outside the hall, Murong Xiao and Murong Yan tacitly agreed not to even glance at each other. Then they heard a voice calling for Murong Yan, Murong Meng, Murong Xue, and Murong Shan to come in.
After leaving the meeting room, Murong Qingyun insisted on taking Murong Xiao back to her room. The two walked along the road in silence. Finally, Murong Xiao couldn't help but ask:
"Qingyun, why do I feel like this incident involving the men in black is very serious? Do you have any guesses?"
"How could it not be serious? Since the establishment of the Marshal's Office, in the past sixteen years, no one has ever been able to come and go so arrogantly."
"How is this possible? The Marshal's Mansion is so huge. Even if there are many shadow guards and bodyguards, how can we prevent those with bad intentions from entering? To be frank, if I were the man in black, I would also have a way to enter the Marshal's Mansion."
In response to Murong Xiao's arrogant words, Murong Qingyun just gave him a mysterious smile.
Murong Xiao continued to play dumb and said, "You are laughing so mysteriously. Could it be that this Marshal's Mansion has the legendary Qimen Bagua formation that prevents you from leaving once you enter?"
"More powerful than the Bagua Formation!"
"oh?"
"The mansion will regularly distribute some fragrant sachets to each room, and your clothes will also be regularly fumigated with incense. That's because every few days the mansion will place some poisonous flowers and plants, and the fragrant sachets are used to detoxify.
People outside don't know that anyone who sneaks into the mansion will be poisoned. This is why no one has been able to leave the Marshal's Mansion alive for so many years."
Murong Xiao was silent for a moment, then asked, "So, there's a spy in the mansion?"
Murong Qingyun raised an eyebrow: "Do you think so too?"
"If the people who came were immune to all poisons, that would make sense, but there are three of them, it's impossible for all of them to be immune to all poisons, right? So I think there must be a traitor in our house."
Murong Qingyun nodded: "Dad will take care of this matter, you can go back and rest in peace. Also, although what you did today was to prove your strength, don't do it again in the future."
"Why?"
"Jing is Daddy's right-hand man, and most of the Marshal's Guards were trained by him. They have their own methods to deal with the enemy. If you go, you might even make things worse.
If you hadn't shown no mercy today, and if you hadn't had a room full of maids testifying for you, you would have been Dad's first suspect."
"Isn't it also for the Marshal's Mansion? ...Okay, I get it. I have to bear a great deal of responsibility for the successful escape of those men in black today. I won't do that again."
Seeing Murong Xiao's low mood, Murong Qingyun comforted her, "Xiao'er, Dad and I have no intention of blaming you. Aside from whether you can defeat the man in black, you must also remember that you are now the daughter of the Marshal's Mansion. Under normal circumstances, don't reveal your skills in front of others.
No one knows who sent this wave of men in black, but at least after tonight, their mastermind will know that you, the young lady of the Marshal's Mansion, are a martial artist."
