Mu Chenshuang replaced all the important personnel in the Marquis's mansion, and these people were all Lu Wei's confidants. It would be dangerous for them to stay in the mansion for even a day.
In an instant.
The Marquis's mansion underwent a major reshuffle, and everyone was filled with anxiety, fearing that they would be the next to suffer.
Unable to contain her anger, Mu Yazhi went to confront Mu Chenshuang. Upon learning that she was in her mother's study, her hatred reached its peak, and even the maid could not stop her.
"Mu Chenshuang, you stop right there!"
Mu Yazhi stormed up to Mu Chenshuang, blocking her path, and glared at her angrily. "This is not a place for you. Don't think you can be the head of the household now. This family is not up to you to decide. If Father knew that his daughter was so treacherous and cunning, framing her stepmother, do you think he would forgive you? At that time, I want to see how arrogant you can still be."
Mu Chenshuang sneered, her gaze sharp and intimidating.
Mu Yazhi's heart skipped a beat.
“Useless trash only bites like a mad dog. If it happens again, I, the princess, won’t mind pulling out the mad dog’s teeth.”
Mu Chengshuang's chilling tone made Mu Yazhi break out in a cold sweat, her body stiffening as she stood frozen in place, only able to watch helplessly as Mu Chengshuang walked past her.
Only when the oppressive atmosphere gradually faded did Mu Yazhi come to her senses and suddenly turn around to look at Mu Chenshuang as she walked into her mother's study.
Suppressing her fear, Mu Yazhi took a step forward, only to find a sharp blade pressed against her neck. Her legs went weak and she collapsed to the ground in terror.
"you……"
"Swords have no eyes, Miss, don't be so blind." Qi Ye's cold, sharp eyes looked disdainfully at the woman lying on the ground.
Qi Ye followed them into the study. After walking to a vase and turning the stool around, there was a loud bang, and the bookshelves moved to both sides, revealing a hidden door in the middle.
As Qi Ye prepared to open the hidden door, Mu Chen Shuang sensed something was wrong.
"etc."
Qi Ye paused on the doorknob, turned to look at Mu Chen Shuang, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Mu Chenshuang narrowed her eyes and stared at the hidden door, saying, "There is phosphorus powder in here, which will spontaneously combust once it comes into contact with air."
Qi Ye paused, then withdrew his hand. "What do we do now?"
It seems that Lu Wei was not unprepared, or perhaps someone had been here before.
"Looks like we can't open this door. Let's go!"
Just as Mu Chenshuang turned to leave, she heard an urgent voice from outside the door, "Third Miss, Madam is back."
Upon hearing this, Mu Yazhi glared angrily at the room before hurriedly leaving.
inside the house.
Qi Ye stepped forward and asked, "Was it the Chengtian Bureau that brought Madam Lu back?"
"Who else could it be but the Chengtianjian? Lu Wei is the Chengtianjian's spy planted in the Marquis's residence."
Therefore, Lu Weineng's marriage into the Marquis's mansion was premeditated from the beginning. The fact that Lu Weineng was able to leave the Chengtianjian unharmed suggests that the Emperor already knew her true identity. So, everything was just the Emperor manipulating things behind the scenes.
Even though Lu Wei has lost her power, as long as she remains in the Marquis's mansion, she still has a purpose.
It is not easy for a marquis's mansion to remain unscathed under the imperial power; the Wei Prince's mansion and the Libei Prince are the best examples.
"If she continues to stay in the Marquis's mansion, she will always be a menace. We should find an opportunity to assassinate her." Qi Ye said in a low voice, raising his hand as if to slit his throat.
Mu Chenshuang glared at him. "If Lu Wei were to die, who do you think would be the first person suspected?"
