"Don't ask me these questions; you'll understand in time."
No matter how Mu Yazhi asked, Mu Chunxi wouldn't bring up the previous topic again, so Mu Yazhi had no choice but to give up.
Leaving the Buddhist hall, Mu Chunxi frowned slightly.
Mu Yazhi was indeed naive and without any scheming. Mu Chenshuang was not simple; she was even more powerful than they had imagined. That was one point.
In addition, there was another important reason why Mu Chunxi didn't tell Mu Yazhi what was going on: she couldn't bring herself to say it.
He couldn't just tell Mu Yazhi the whole story because she was curious.
Can you really say that in order to stay by the side of Prince Fu Junheng of Xiyue, you even betrayed the country and the Marquis's mansion today?
Furthermore, it's unacceptable that in order to gain Feng Mo Ran's trust, he would now place himself in the eye of the storm after their meeting.
Mu Chunxi knew that whatever she did, she would die a hundred times over.
Mu Chunxi also felt that Mu Yazhi didn't need to know these things.
Based on Mu Yazhi's thoughts and judgment, she was capable of ruining things and couldn't help them at all.
Therefore, for Mu Yazhi to stay obediently in the Buddhist hall is better than anything else right now.
Just as Mu Chunxi went to see Mu Yazhi, Linglong was also mentioning Mu Yazhi to Mu Chenshuang.
“Miss, almost the entire Marquis’s mansion is talking about the Third Miss right now, but the Second Miss is acting all nonchalant, as if this has nothing to do with her.”
"This second young lady has always been indifferent to worldly affairs. She must also disapprove of the third young lady's behavior, which is why she doesn't step forward, right?"
"There's no need to be confused. After all, they're siblings. The Third Miss has said she's suffered such a great injustice, how could the Second Miss possibly ignore it? The Second Miss has always been a person with her own opinions."
Linglong spoke very softly, as if she were talking to herself or to Mu Chenshuang.
Mu Chenshuang narrowed her eyes slightly, a cold smile appearing on her lips.
"The surface of things may not be the truth. Do you really think Mu Chunxi did nothing?"
After hearing this, Linglong opened her mouth wide and stared at Mu Chenshuang in disbelief.
"Miss, are you saying that the Second Miss has already..."
Linglong didn't finish her sentence, but the rest of the meaning was already very clear.
No one saw Mu Chunxi go to see Mu Yazhi, but now Mu Chenshuang is saying something else entirely, which means that the two of them have already met secretly without anyone knowing.
"You don't need to be so surprised. It doesn't matter whether we meet or not. Right now, what's on our side is much more important than what's on their side."
Everyone in the Marquis's mansion has their own hidden agendas, and the intricate relationships behind them cannot be explained in just a few words.
Mu Chenshuang couldn't understand why the Emperor kept Prime Minister Shen in the palace.
If the evidence is conclusive, Feng Mo Ran should convict Prime Minister Shen without dragging things out. But if there is no evidence, he should simply be released.
Thinking of all this, Mu Chenshuang sighed heavily.
There's a saying that goes, "A dull knife cuts meat."
Sometimes the wait is more agonizing than the result.
In this quiet night, there are probably many people like me who are unable to sleep.
"Miss, it's getting late, you should get some rest. Your health is the most important thing."
