Being the King of War's Smart Wife
The culprit was already confirmed by Him
His two closest SERVANTS could say nothing to deny it all. Ever since Rongyu cursed the silver dragon, Mu Lizheng's attitude changed. Whether it was due to the many wounds and pus on Rongyu's body or indeed feeling unsightly again, they knew better than anyone.
Now Rongyu was better and more beautiful than before. After taking a blood bath this afternoon, Rongyu's body was even softer and supple. The natural red hue on her cheeks also made anyone tempted. Rongyu could not believe that Mu Lizheng would not be tempted by him tonight.
"Daughter, Your Majesty is only tempted by them temporarily and will definitely pamper the Princess in the future. Once the Princess becomes empress, the backyard is easy to take care of," said one of her more intelligent servants to please her master.
"Well, you're right. Wait till I become empress!" Rongyu could not help but cheer himself up. The time is still long. Sooner or later, the empress' seat just belonged to her.
"Then, Princess, what should we do now?" ask one of the two.
"What else? Of course go and meet him. I want to see how smart the concubines are at seducing my man!"
Rongyu finally left the room and went to the courtyard Mu Lizheng was in. His mood is very good tonight. After he bathed in blood, his body was much fresher. It was just that which made him uncomfortable, one would probably guess how Mu Lanfen died today and there was no blood on his body. Other than Mu Xianzhai and also Li Chang Su, others did not know.
But this is not a problem. Rongyu was not afraid of Li Chang Su. Before he obtained Li Chang Su's blood for detoxification, he would continue to use the blood of the other girls to make his body youthful and beautiful.
When Rongyu arrived at Mu Lizheng's courtyard, the servants were shocked and did not prevent him from coming. He just let the princess in. After all, none of them dared to go against Rongyu. Not to mention that Rongyu had also been in the military barracks as a female soldier.
It's just that the servants didn't expect that Rongyu would be so different tonight. It looks more beautiful. Her clothes were slightly open and the cloth was thin. Clearly came tonight to spend some time with the crown prince.
When Rongyu entered with a friendly smile, Mu Lizheng found out. At first he didn't want to care too much and invited her to have a drink together, but who knows if that woman would be so different tonight.
Even the concubines felt high jealousy. A woman who was raised in a military barracks since childhood, it couldn't be as graceful as it is now. But the fact is that Rongyu is good at playing pretenses and summoning the crown prince gently.
So inevitably, the concubines lost to him and Mu Lizheng chased them all away to return to their respective courtyards.
Tonight, Mu Lizheng was destined to be obedient under the influence of Rongyu.
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
Next morning.
The imperial capital felt the same as usual, except for the news of Mu Lanfen's death that was still being discussed. Who kills in the eyes of the imperial law, is brave. Unfortunately, the people from the court have not been able to catch the culprit, there is no trace at all.
This morning, Li Chang Su went to the Queen Mother Palace and greeted the old couple. Then go to the imperial palace. The day of the one-month ceremony of the birth of the baby in the Regent's Palace is imminent but this case clearly becomes a pro and a con. In the end, the event will only be held normally so as not to offend other parties. After all, Mu Lanfen was still the sister of all the princes, their younger brother.
So although different mothers and only born from concubines, the emperor's blood flowed in his body.
Li Chang Su went to look at Mu Lanfen's corpse which was now still on the ice jade bed, ready to be buried. There are servants and guards watching around, hoping the perpetrator doesn't come to destroy the evidence. When Li Chang Su and Mu Xianzhai came, they bowed respectfully.
Li Chang Su walked into the room and felt a chill from the ice jade bed. Mu Lanfen's body was lying on top of it, stretched stiff. Li Chang Su frowned and looked through the abilities of the god's eyes, the blood on Mu Lanfen's body was really slight. No wonder the girl's body was so pale, like a mannequin.
"Su'er ..." Mu Xianzhai just waited quietly, seeing the girl watching Mu Lanfen's corpse which had been stretched stiff.
"Is there a wound on his neck?" ask the girl.
"Yes, it's an incision wound" he replied.
Mu Xianzhai did not chim in, waiting for the girl to explain further.
"The ritual of bathing in blood to cover this curse is not too complicated, human blood is mixed with water that has been given a little corpse water, then soak for the specified time ... The effect is good." Li Chang Su sighed. "Let's get out, I already know who did it. This is really him," he added.
The two of them came out and met Mu Hongzhi who was helping to solve the case. At first the man was in the military barracks and did not participate, but was forced to return after receiving a letter from his father—Mu Hongshan for special reasons. So this time, he helped Mu Lanfen's death case.
With the speed of the mutated white horse in his relentless running, Mu Hongzhi and Lict almost vomited and nauseated all the way home and arrived in less than a day. It's amazingly shocking. So at this moment, Mu Hongzhi was slightly weak and pale from the toss of the mutated white horse on the way.
Upon seeing Mu Hongzhi, Li Chang Su had a secret explanation on the man and asked him to pretend to look for the perpetrator.
The moment Mu Hongzhi knew who did it, there was a hint of surprise, then it turned into calmness. But who would have thought, your second prince— Peizhi also came and had guessed for a long time. It was finally confirmed today by Li Chang Su.
"Then, Cousin Ipar ... when will this be disclosed?" ask Mu Hongzhi.
"Wait .. wait at least until the evidence is strong. Right now, that woman is still useful to Mu Lizheng as well as the empress isn't it?" Li Chang Su raised his eyebrows next to his.
"I mean ..." Mu Hongzhi narrowed his eyes.
In the end, Mu Peizhi smiled casually and knew the girl's intent. "Daughter Xian means ... Rongyu was used as a stepping stone for Mu Lizheng to obtain the throne and General Rong's family would be destroyed at that very instant. So no hurry."
"G ... It turned out like that," Mu Hongzhi muttered.
Finally, Mu Xianzhai who had been observing from the beginning chuckled and stared at Mu Peizhi through his silver mask. "Second Brother is indeed worthy of being the future emperor."
"..."
Mu Peizhi who was slightly sweating coldly on his back also unintentionally saw the meaningful gaze of his third brother. Why does it feel like something isn't right with her words? Her thought.
In the end, the four of them left the aetskah Imperial Palace greeting the furious emperor. Not real anger, but a little silly. Why are all her children so rebellious lately, making her old body tired.
As a child, the princes and a nephew were dutiful and obedient, now grown up, turning away quickly. How angry the emperor was, under the gaze of the retired emperor—sang father, he did not dare to shout anymore.
Mu Peizhi took them to the Peach Pavilion, one of the branches of the capital's luxurious restaurants. The servant was already used to the second prince's arrival and welcomed his arrival very politely.
"This Peach Pavilion is my favorite place, there are many good menus in the restaurant. You can eat as much as you can, I paid for it today," Mu Peizhi said, his mood was very good.
"Second Cousin, you're so good." Mu Hongzhi looked enthusiastic as he held the menu scroll the waiter gave him.
"When did I become a stingy person?"
"..." - ".You are never stingy, but reluctant to spend money! Mu Hongzhi was unwilling to argue about this, worried that the words paying for the food would be pulled back.
Li Chang Su and Mu Xianzhai were acting as usual. "By the way, what about your body right now? Does it feel better?" ask the girl.
