Fu Junheng carried Mu Chenshuang into the house, placed her on a stool next to the dining table, and poured her a glass of warm water.
Mu Chenshuang glanced at him, then lowered her eyes. She was still somewhat uncomfortable and reached out to take the cup.
Thank you.
After drinking a glass of warm water, my stomach felt a little better.
"Have you been vomiting a lot?" Fu Junheng asked, his voice devoid of emotion.
Mu Chenshuang put down her cup. "It's alright. I probably ate something I shouldn't have because I was having dinner with Princess Jinhua."
Upon hearing this, Fu Junheng's eyes dimmed slightly. "It seems the Marquis's residence doesn't welcome your return."
“It’s not that the Marquis’s mansion doesn’t welcome her, it’s just that Lu Wei is guilty of something she did wrong. This Marquis’s mansion is not hers, and I will take it back sooner or later.”
The original owner's father was stationed on the frontier for many years, and Lu Wei controlled all the affairs of the Marquis's mansion. According to the memories in her mind, when the original owner was in the Eastern Palace, Mu Yazhi had asked her for a lot of money. At that time, Mu Yazhi played the victim a few times, and the original owner believed her.
But the Marquis's mansion has a considerable annual salary, so how could they be short of money? She doesn't know what Lu Wei is doing behind the scenes, so she has to find out.
Fu Junheng took a jade pendant from his waist and handed it to Mu Chenshuang, saying, "If you need any help in the future, just take this jade pendant and go directly to Yaoguang Residence. There's no need to announce your arrival."
Mu Chenshuang looked up at him.
Fu Junheng continued to explain, "I am still waiting for your treatment, so naturally I cannot let anything happen to you."
Mu Chenshuang looked at the jade pendant in his hand. Having another person to help her wouldn't be a bad thing, so she reached out and took the jade pendant.
"In that case, I will accept it. However, if Crown Prince Junheng truly wishes to help me, I wonder if he could tell me what the relationship is between the father of the child in my womb and the Prince of Xiaoyao?"
Upon hearing this, Fu Junheng's eyes darkened. "Why does Princess Weiyang ask such a question?"
“This is not obvious. Feng Ji has helped me time and time again, and even asked you, Crown Prince Junheng, to help. According to the personality of the Prince of Xiaoyao, he is not such a kind person who is happy to help others. I suppose he is not concerned about me, but about the child in my belly.”
Fu Junheng listened calmly to Mu Chenshuang's words.
"I'm afraid this won't help Princess Weiyang. This is Feng Ji's matter. If you want to know, you can ask him."
His refusal was within her expectations; it seemed she still needed to investigate herself.
"How long does Crown Prince Junheng plan to stay in Tianzhao Kingdom?" Mu Chenshuang asked in confusion.
It is indeed rare for a crown prince to stay in another country for such a long time.
"I need to stay for a while longer, at least until Princess Weiyang has cured my illness."
Mu Chenshuang looked up at Fu Junheng and suddenly felt that this man was not as upright as he appeared.
After lunch, Fu Junheng left the Marquis's residence.
Inside the main courtyard, after Xue Jiajia woke up, Fenglian took her away from the Marquis's residence.
"Mother, if it's really found out that Chunxiao isn't a maid from the Libei Prince's Mansion, won't that mean that vile woman Mu Chenshuang will escape again? What should we do then?" Mu Yazhi asked anxiously.
She felt resentful and indignant. Today, that bitch Mu Chenshuang had escaped another disaster. She really couldn't understand why Crown Prince Junheng was helping her. She was just a divorced woman, what was so great about her?
Lu Wei was also very worried. Although Li Ming was the princess's man, if Fu Junheng wanted to help, he might have the Prince of Xiaoyao secretly arrange for people to investigate. In that case, it would only be a matter of time before the truth was found out.
She never expected that Mu Chenshuang would actually send Fu Junheng to her door today. You know, how many noble ladies in the capital have personally come to ask to see her, only to be turned away? Now, Fu Junheng has actually lowered himself to come to Mu Chenshuang in person.
This is completely baffling.
What secret is Mu Chenshuang hiding from her?
She needs to investigate this thoroughly.
"Right now, the only thing we can do is let Chunxiao keep this to herself forever."
As he spoke, a sinister glint flashed in Lu Wei's eyes.
"Mother, you mean..."
Mu Yazhi understood instantly.
Lu Wei strode towards Mu Chenshuang's courtyard, determined to see what this woman was up to.
Mu Chenshuang was taking a nap when Linglong saw Lu Wei and her daughter approaching. Her heart jumped into her throat as she watched them walk in.
"Madam Lu, Third Miss."
Lu Wei glared at Linglong, "Where is your young lady!"
"Reporting to Madam, Miss is tired and has already rested. If you have anything to say, Linglong can tell her after she wakes up."
Hearing Linglong's words, Lu Wei's lips curled into a mocking smile, "It means you're not going to see her."
"I'm sorry, madam."
Seeing a maid acting so arrogantly, Mu Yazhi couldn't help but get angry and stepped forward to hit this lowly servant.
Lu Wei reached out to stop her and said to Linglong, "Since Shuang'er has rested, I won't disturb her. Come with me, I have some questions for you."
Linglong's face suddenly stiffened, and her fingers clenched tighter. "This servant is waiting for Miss to wake up. If Madam has anything to say..."
Before Linglong could finish speaking...
Mu Yazhi stepped forward and slapped him.
"A mere maidservant can't even command you, can she? Don't forget, this is the Marquis's residence, and your master is not just Mu Chenshuang."
Linglong covered her cheeks, unable to resist, and could only leave with Lu Wei.
