When Mu Chenshuang arrived at Yaoguang Residence, she was surprised to find a dark and damp dark room in such a beautiful and scenic house.
Chunxiao, disheveled and shivering, huddled in the corner of the wall.
"Spring Dawn".
Mu Chenshuang called out.
Chunxiao trembled and suddenly looked up, her eyes wide with terror as she looked at Mu Chenshuang who had appeared before her.
Do you know why you're still alive?
Chunxiao stared at the person who appeared with trembling, lifeless eyes, and said in a weak voice, "Princess, aren't you afraid of being discovered?"
She was carried here in a sack, so she had no idea where she was.
Mu Chenshuang strode towards Chunxiao, her imposing aura forcing Chunxiao to retreat continuously, her eyes filled with fear and dread.
Mu Chenshuang stopped in her tracks, her cold eyes sweeping over the woman huddled on the ground, trembling.
"Since I've let you out, I naturally won't let anyone find out. Lu Wei wants you dead, but this princess wants you to live."
The words were spoken.
Chunxiao's pupils dilated in shock, her eyes filled with disbelief and lingering fear.
"What did you say?"
When she was taken away yesterday, while Li Ming wasn't paying attention, Madam Lu clearly promised her that as long as she kept clinging to Mu Chen Shuang, she would find a way to protect her and ensure that nothing happened to her.
Unexpectedly, her identity was still discovered. Even so, she endured the torture without saying a word.
Seeing the shock in her eyes, Mu Chenshuang sneered, "Do you think Lu Wei would try to protect you? You're just a pawn, what use are you to her? If your food hadn't been switched last night, you would probably be dead by now, dying with your eyes wide open."
Upon hearing this, Chunxiao felt weak all over and her face turned ashen, yet she still refused to believe it: "Impossible, no way, Madam said she wouldn't let me die."
Mu Chenshuang looked at Chunxiao with disdain, "Your identity has been exposed. You impersonated a maid of the Prince of Libei's mansion and framed the Princess of the Prime Minister's mansion. With each of these two charges combined, do you think you have any chance of survival? Do you think she, a concubine of a noble family, would risk her life to save a lowly maid like you?"
"She can use your family to blackmail you, so you should understand that to a master, a servant is always just a pawn. Useful pawns are kept, and useless ones are destroyed. Your existence is already a dangerous pawn to her. Only when you are dead, with no one to testify, can she rest easy."
Chunxiao's face grew increasingly pale, and she was unable to speak, her eyes filled with despair and fear.
"I'm giving you two choices. First, either reveal who's behind this, and I, the princess, can guarantee your life and the safety of your family. Second..."
Mu Chenshuang paused, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she said in a more serious tone, "Either you die in prison, or your family will be buried with you."
Chunxiao shuddered violently.
No!
She didn't want to die!
She couldn't let anything happen to her parents and younger brother!
Sudden.
Chunxiao struggled to move her body and knelt on the ground. "Please, Princess, spare my life. I don't want to die. My parents can't be harmed."
Mu Chenshuang slowly squatted down, lifting Chunxiao's chin with her fingers, "As long as you tell the truth, you were also threatened, and the mastermind is the real culprit. This princess can save your life."
Chunxiao had no other way to survive.
Mu Chenshuang left the dark room.
Following the guards into the main house, upon entering, one sees an incomparably handsome man brewing hot tea, his every move exuding unparalleled nobility; such a stunning beauty is indeed pleasing to the eye.
Fu Junheng raised his eyes.
Mu Chenshuang snapped out of her daze, subtly concealing the distraction in her eyes, and strode forward.
Even though she quickly averted her gaze, Fu Junheng still caught it, and for a moment, a faint smile curved his thin lips.
"Finished asking?"
Mu Chenshuang squatted down opposite Fu Junheng: "I've finished asking. This time, Crown Prince Junheng has helped me a lot again."
"Now that your affairs are my affairs, I will naturally take care of them to the end and will definitely not let Princess Weiyang be harmed in the slightest."
His deep, husky voice sounded exceptionally mellow and pleasant.
If it weren't for their mutually beneficial relationship, people might really misunderstand his words as having other meanings.
"The Crown Prince Junheng's words are reassuring, but we should still send the person back as soon as possible to avoid arousing suspicion."
Fu Junheng looked up and his gaze fell on the guard. The guard immediately understood, respectfully clasped his hands in a fist and bow, and then turned and strode away.
"If Crown Prince Junheng has nothing else to say, then I shall take my leave."
As Mu Chenshuang spoke, she was about to get up.
"I suggest that Princess Weiyang stay here today and wait for news."
Fu Junheng said calmly and slowly.
Mu Chenshuang paused, looked up at Fu Junheng, and suddenly understood something. She should indeed stay here and wait for news from the Court of Justice.
"Is the Prince of Xiaoyao still in the Court of Justice?"
Fu Junheng looked out the window and replied calmly, "If someone dares to set their sights on the Prince of Libei's residence, he will naturally deal with it."
That is indeed true.
Lu Wei probably didn't expect this outcome.
Now she desperately wants to know what other way she can manage to escape.
