Chapter 540 Observe the situation calmly



Mu Chenshuang didn't say much; she couldn't stop him from staying.

"Do you think the assassin that night was from the Dark Night Assassins?" Mu Chenshuang asked.

Fu Junheng replied, "They are members of the Dark Night Assassins."

Mu Chenshuang's expression darkened slightly. The assassins of the Dark Night had actually infiltrated the palace. "Aren't the people behind this afraid of exposing their whereabouts?"

"They must have been planning this all along, keeping it hidden for so long."

"So what benefits do the people behind this actually get?"

"Let's wait and see."

Mu Chenshuang remained silent, realizing that all she could do now was wait and see.

Do you think His Majesty might trace the matter back to Feng Anxue?

This time, it seems that Feng Anxue is just another pawn in the enemy's game.

However, given how much Feng Guche dotes on Feng Anxue, it's unclear how far he will punish her for committing such a serious offense.

Fu Junheng guessed, "Even if His Majesty has suspicions, he may not actually trace it back to her. However, after this incident, at least Feng Guche will not spoil Feng Anxue as much as before."

Indeed, this is the only possibility.

But this time Feng Anxue failed to frame him, and she must be resentful. It's unknown whether she will continue to act recklessly.

Inside Zhaohua Palace.

Bang.

Enraged, Feng Anxue smashed the vase to the ground and cursed viciously, "Bitch!" With that, she slammed her hand heavily on the table, her eyes filled with resentment and jealousy, her eyes filled with a bone-chilling hatred that seemed to want to tear people apart.

Unexpectedly, Mu Chenshuang escaped suspicion so easily this time. Now she is even more worried that her father will find out about her.

At this moment, the palace maids inside the hall were trembling with fear, not daring to utter a sound.

Lu Hua stood guard by the side. Seeing the princess's exhausted appearance, she couldn't help but worry. She carefully and respectfully said, "Princess, everything has been arranged. His Majesty will definitely not trace it back to you."

The person impersonating Princess Weiyang has already been sent out of the palace, and even if there were an investigation, it would be too late now.

Feng Anxue took a deep breath, but she was still uneasy. She had never expected that Fu Junheng would arrive at the palace at such a coincidence.

How could she not hate that?

At this moment.

A palace maid came to report from outside the door, "Princess, Consort Xiao requests an audience."

Feng Anxue raised her eyes, and her sharp gaze made the palace maid tremble with fear.

"Let her in."

"yes!"

The palace maid withdrew, and Xiao Qingyu entered the hall. She glanced at the scene inside and then looked at Feng Anxue's expression. She had already guessed what was going on.

She stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Princess!"

Feng Anxue ordered, "All of you, step back."

The palace maids left the palace, leaving only Lu Hua inside.

Xiao Qingyu stepped forward and said, "It seems that Mu Chenshuang has escaped unscathed again this time. Mu Chenshuang is indeed more difficult to deal with than I imagined."

Feng Anxue asked with a stern face, "What business do you have with me?"

Xiao Qingyu sat to the side, and how could she not know how bad Feng Anxue's mood was at this moment? "I just found out that Mu Chenshuang has been arranged to stay in Bixi Palace. It seems that His Majesty intends to keep her in the palace. What's going on?"

Feng Anxue stared coldly ahead and asked, "When she was still the Crown Princess, did you know that she also knew medicine?"

Xiao Qingyu was shocked. After thinking carefully, she realized, "Mu Chenshuang actually knows medicine. But I didn't know that when she was still the Crown Princess."

Back when Mu Chenshuang was still the Crown Princess, she poisoned Mu Chenshuang and framed her. At that time, Mu Chenshuang had a rash all over her body. If she knew medicine, how could she not have seen the allergenic drug?

After thinking it over carefully, she decided to tell Feng Anxue a more embellished version of the story, since she couldn't portray herself as too malicious.

Feng Anxue listened to Xiao Qingyu's words, glanced at her, and said, "Actually, you framed her, didn't you?"

Xiao Qingyu was startled and didn't know how to refute it for a moment, but there was nothing to be afraid of, since Feng Anxue now deeply hated Mu Chenshuang.

She remained silent and did not respond.

"In other words, Mu Chenshuang had no medical skills before, but now she suddenly has exceptional medical skills."

The fact that the Emperor kept Mu Chenshuang in the palace only shows that Mu Chenshuang can cure the Empress Dowager. Once the Empress Dowager wakes up, she might speak up for Mu Chenshuang, since Mu Chenshuang is still useful to them.

Xiao Qingyu was truly shocked by Feng Anxue's words. She never expected that Mu Chenshuang would know medicine. She recalled how Lu Wei had drugged and framed Mu Chenshuang in the Marquis's mansion, but Mu Chenshuang had always escaped unscathed.

"This is indeed unbelievable. I have never heard of Mu Chenshuang being skilled in medicine."

Feng Anxue pondered for a moment, then turned to look at Lu Hua and said, "Lu Hua, have someone inquire whether Sect Leader Qi has left the palace yet."

"This servant will go right away!"

Lu Hua turned and quickly left the hall.

"What business does the princess have with Sect Leader Qi?"

Feng Anxue explained, "Sect Leader Qi suspects that the person who cured the Empress Dowager was not a spiritual healer at all. Doctor Li is just an ordinary doctor with no real skills. After investigating the people Doctor Li had contacted before, Mu Chenshuang is the most suspicious."
