Mu Chenshuang frowned in thought, when suddenly she was startled and remembered something.
That is, not long after Mu Chunxi returned, no one used internal force to injure her shoulder, but Mu Chunxi neither treated it nor made a sound. Later, even when Lu Wei came to see her and asked her to take a look at Mu Chunxi, Mu Chunxi was still very stubborn and did not mention it at all.
Mu Chenshuang suddenly had a bad feeling. Although Fu Junheng had no love for Mu Chunxi, their relationship might be much deeper than she could have imagined.
What exactly is it?
Unfortunately, she couldn't ask Mu Chunxi right now, and Fu Junheng wasn't around either. She could only hope that one day when she saw Fu Junheng again, she could hear an explanation from him.
It didn't take long for the carriage to return to the Marquis of Jingbian's residence from the palace. As soon as the carriage came to a stop in front of the residence, Mu Chunxi lifted the curtain and jumped down.
Mu Chunxi followed her off the carriage and watched as Mu Chunxi hurriedly entered the mansion. She followed after her.
Mu Chunxi walked quickly back into the house, closed the door behind her, and hurriedly took out the note she had put in her sleeve.
"Recently, I have been monitoring all the actions of Mu Chenshuang and Lord Mu in the manor."
Mu Chunxi frowned slightly as she stared at the powerful characters written on the wall, muttering to herself, "Lord Marquis, Lord Marquis?"
Mu Chunxi took a deep breath and couldn't help but close her eyes slightly.
When she chose to follow Fu Junheng, she voluntarily gave up everything and everyone in the Jingbian Marquis's mansion. She knew all of Fu Junheng's plans and was willing to help him accomplish what he wanted to do.
But now that she has broken ties with Fu Junheng, the Marquis's mansion is where she can stay and make a living. And she has turned to Feng Mo Ran. Can Feng Mo Ran really protect her? Should she betray the Marquis's mansion again?
With mixed feelings, Mu Chunxi stared blankly at the lantern in front of her. She took off the lantern shade, lit the note on the candle, and watched as the note was consumed by the flame and finally turned to ashes.
At this moment, Mu Chunxi had already made up her mind. As long as she could kill Mu Chenshuang and avenge Fu Junheng's break with her because of her, she was determined to go all the way down this path.
Night had fallen, and the entire Marquis's residence was shrouded in silence.
The next morning, Feng Guche summoned Zhu Qin to the Qin Zheng Hall.
Zhu Qin put away his arrogance and haughtiness, and knelt on the ground with his head bowed and eyes lowered.
Feng Guche waved his hand impatiently, ordering him to stand up. "Have any ministers in the capital been causing trouble these past few days?"
"Your Majesty means..." Zhu Qin's expression changed, and he quickly knelt on the ground again. "I beg Your Majesty's forgiveness. I should not have tried to guess Your Majesty's intentions."
Zhu Qin's submissive and obsequious attitude pleased Feng Guche greatly, and he was too lazy to argue with him.
"Alright, get up." Feng Guche stared at Zhu Qin with a serious look. "You have been by my side for so many years, you know me best. I summoned you today only to order you to assist the Second Prince in investigating the case of the Prince of Libei from back then."
Feng Guche's words immediately relieved Zhu Qin, who quickly accepted the imperial decree and expressed his gratitude, saying, "Your Majesty, I will do my utmost to live up to your expectations and assist the Second Prince."
Feng Guche nodded in satisfaction and waved his hand, saying, "Go down."
After leaving the main hall, Zhu Qin went straight to the Chengtianjian. Now that he had Feng Guche's order, he could openly and legitimately contact Feng Moran.
