The peerless and dark princess

Chapter 110 Confusing the situation

Although Mu Heng had no other thoughts, Shen Xinyue was paying close attention, secretly plotting: Since no one in the Shangshu Mansion dared to arrange a marriage for Mu Wange, what about an arranged marriage? Ruohan had just gained a foothold with the Queen. Although she was only the prince's concubine, the Second Prince's heart and soul were still with Han'er. As long as Han'er...

Qiao Yan's cold expression made Shen Xinyue assume it was because she couldn't control Wange and her brother, and even more so because the behemoth Prince of Yan's Mansion was giving her a hard time behind their backs. Little did she know, Qiao Yan loathed both her and Mu Heng. While it might be said that the Yang family was blinded by Deng Xiaoyan back then, from what she'd learned from those in the Shangshu Mansion, it seemed Mu Heng had been hooking up with the Shen family long before. The Deng family might even have included this Shen family among their enemies. This Shen family was formidable, having harmed the daughter of the Yan Prince's Mansion. If it weren't for the eldest daughter and her friends, she probably wouldn't have been able to shake the Shangshu Mansion even after all these years.

"Master, I'm afraid Shen and Mu Heng are trying to find a marriage for Miss Mu."

"Hmm? It seems that the 'concubine' who successfully boarded the Second Prince's ship has made him think that he can do whatever he wants. You stay put for now and stay at Qiao's place. I'll let others handle the rest."

The concubine is none other than Muruohan, and Caiyu understands that her master is angry. It seems that Miss Mu holds an even higher position in her master's heart. Well, she must hold on to her thigh tightly in the future and let the "family" treat the future princess well.

"Go, if the relationship between Sun Tao and Meng Yujiao is revealed to the Crown Prince, what should be done? Zuo Qi, you decide. Also, have Leng Xue and the others returned?"

"Leng Xue should still be on his way. So, is Leng Qing going to Princess Yun Xin's place?"

"Yun Xin has Leng Yue. When Leng Qing comes back, have him come to see me. Also, have Ruoyan find a house in the capital. When Yun Xin arrives with Chu Moxuan, have someone pick her up. Yun Xin can't be known to anyone for the time being. Also inform the Dong family. Don't let my sister get caught."

Originally, Zuo Ci also wanted to keep Zuo Yunxin in Southern Xinjiang, but it was not appropriate to keep her there. They were all in the capital, and the third prince Chen Yunbin actually colluded with the barbarians of Beirong. This court was really corrupt. The emperor did not think about how to make profits for the people and was actually afraid of capable ministers. Haha.

"I understand. But sir, does Luo Cheng want him to meet Princess Yunxin?"

"Where is Luo Cheng now?"

"In Leng Xin's hall, I didn't participate in too many things. After all, Uncle Luo used to be a close confidant of the old prince, so he taught me more or less."

(Six leaders: Leng Yue, Leng Qing, Leng Ying, Leng Xin, Leng Xue, Leng Yu)

"We trust Uncle Luo and Aunt Ying to take care of Yunxin for a few years. Since Luocheng is just a child, we should just leave him with Lengxin. We shouldn't let him do anything too dangerous. We can't let them die without a descendant."

"I understand. I'll tell Leng Xin right away."

"Leng Yue collected evidence of Chen Yunfeng's collusion with the Northern Rong in Southern Xinjiang and slowly released it to Chen Yunfeng, Chen Yunjie and the others, letting them stir up trouble. Since Chen Yan doesn't care about face, let him see what his sons and concubines have done."

Zuo Qi was a little confused as to why the Master was so furious after seeing Caiyu today. He had never been this angry before. He knew in his heart that he must not ask any more questions at this moment, otherwise he would die without knowing how.

"Ajiu, how's that little brat Mu Ying doing?"

"He has good physique, but it's really remarkable that he's reached this level after just a short time with me. Wange, are you going to use him?"

"No, I'm just asking. Zuo Ci's progress is pretty good, and we can't fall behind. Now that Lin'er's poison has been cured, we should investigate how such a strange poison appeared here. Zuo Jiu, I feel that the poison in my mother and Lin'er is not simple, but we know that King Yue has been in his fiefdom and has never returned. As for other things, we don't know anything. Can you use Zuo Ci's people to investigate King Yue Chen Yu and his affairs in Minzhou?"

"Elegy, this is a little difficult."

Zuo Jiu was somewhat perplexed, for the King of Yue had not returned to the capital for many years, remaining solely in his fiefdom of Minzhou. It was said that after His Majesty ascended the throne, the King of Yue, along with the late Emperor's burial, had left the capital for his fiefdom and was not permitted to return to the capital without being summoned. Consequently, he had not returned to the capital in all those years. Emperor Chen Yan had also never summoned King Chen Yu to the capital, but it was said that he needed to recuperate from an old injury, and no further information was known. Furthermore, Zuo Ci's men had never entered Chen Yu's fiefdom of Minzhou.

"This is very important to me. If the people I have are not as good as Zuo Ci, I would like to let Shen Du and others go."

"Wangge, you can actually tell the Master about this without me. Besides, the Master has asked me to follow you, Wangge. Most of them wouldn't let you get involved in those things. Over the years, you, Wangge, are the only exception. I've never seen the Master treat you this way. Wangge, if you tell the Master, he might agree."

Mu Wange was a little confused. She was nothing more than an ally of Zuo Ci, so how could she convince Zuo Ci to agree? Just because she had thousands of years of modern cultural knowledge, she said a little more. In her opinion, these ancient people were more intelligent, but they simply didn't want to be accused of treason because of their old-fashioned loyalty to the emperor and patriotism.

"Well, let's talk about it when we meet Zuo Ci another day. There's no rush for these things anyway."

Furthermore, Mu Yuqi had been in Mu Heng's sight since Mu Yucheng was murdered by Zhou Yu at the behest of Mu Ruohan. Now, with Mu Lanxin's support, he was even more diligent in his studies at the academy, aiming for a place in the imperial court. This was a stark difference from before, and his academic performance gradually improved, earning him the favor of many influential scholars. As for Mu Lanxin, she had gained experience in Mu Wange's shops and was gradually developing her own ideas and working independently. While she didn't show it, she had accumulated a considerable amount of money. Even her concubine didn't know how much she held. It wasn't that Mu Lanxin didn't want to give her money, but she couldn't let anyone know she was helping Mu Wange, as others would simply interpret her as currying favor with him. However, thanks to Mu Yuqi, their concubine's treatment was much better than when she was Shen Xinyue's housekeeper, and she was quite content.

"Ruohan, if your brother hadn't passed away, how could that boy have caught your father's eye? However, your father still doesn't like Chu Wanran's children. Look, he now favors that boy and refuses to treat Mu Wange and Mu Haolin, those two evil bastards. Ruohan, in order to avenge your brother, I want you to be with the Second Prince..."

"Mother, Ruohan understands. Now, that playboy has helped my good elder sister once, right? If they were to become a couple, wouldn't it be a match made in heaven? A playboy paired with a straw bag, mother is still thoughtful. I will propose this to His Highness and the Queen Mother."
