C78 Princess Suspicion (1/2)
Since Princess Wuyou came with Murong Yue, she should follow her back as well. Qin Baijing and the others sat in another carriage and left. After leaving, the Grand Princess still refused to give up. ”Did you really not discover anything?”
Mu Ru Yue couldn't wait to be asked. ”Princess, what do you want me to discover?”
”Nothing. I hope you didn't lie to me. Otherwise, I will definitely make you regret it. ” With that, the Grand Princess boarded the carriage. Mu Ru Yue's expression became completely gloomy. She was almost certain that the Grand Princess was referring to the treasure map in her hands.
However, since the princess knew that there was a treasure map here, why didn't she look for it herself?
Mu Ru Yue was filled with doubts. Jiang Zilan then asked, ”Does Seventh Princess know why she asked you that?”
”Hmm?” Mu Ru Yue was stunned.
What she did not know was that in Jiang Zilan's eyes, she looked like an unlucky bastard who had been wrongly accused and did not know why. Out of pure good intentions, Jiang Zilan said, ”I heard that this place was left behind by a powerful official from the previous dynasty. At the end of his life, that powerful official had obtained a treasure map, which contained the enormous treasures from a long time ago. In the end, he hid the treasure map.
He had searched countless places over the years, except for that peach forest. So, the Grand Princess probably wants to ask this. ”
So this treasure map was from the previous dynasty?
Mu Ru Yue had many doubts in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. She then angrily said, ”Let alone that I don't know what map it is, even if I did, I would naturally have given it to my prince. How could it be her turn?”
What Mu Ru Yue said made the man believe it slightly. If Mu Rong Yue really did have a treasure map, she would have asked about it carefully. Why would she be so angry? You even naively said that you were willing to give it to someone?
How could he be willing to give away the treasures that were so tempting to the people? Even if that person was her husband. Jiang Zilan thought so.
Jiang Zilan brought Murong Yue and Princess Wuyou to the Seventh Marquis Estate. When he arrived at the Seventh Prince's Mansion, he saw that there were actually heavy soldiers guarding the gate. The butler stood there with a pale face. Upon seeing Mu Ru Yue, he stepped forward and said, ”Esteemed wangfei, the empress has come to visit. Please come back immediately to the main hall.”
”Why is the Queen Mother looking for his sister-in-law?” Princess Wuyou also came down. Hearing these words, Zhang Xuan said unhappily.
”Reporting to Your Highness, this old servant doesn't know.” The housekeeper had a serious expression on his face, while he was even more dissatisfied with Mu Ru Yue. Ever since Mu Ru Yue had married the prince, there hadn't been a single moment of peace in the past few days. Every time, he would cause trouble for the prince.
As he thought about it, the old butler looked at Mu Ru Yue with a gaze filled with ill intent.
Mu Ru Yue knew this old butler didn't like her, so she didn't bother replying. ”Let's go.”
”Yes.” Princess Wuyou nodded, but took the initiative to pull Mu Ru Yue along. She whispered, ”Sister-in-law, don't worry. If she wants to bully you, I will definitely help you. You've helped me so much today, if there's anything in the future, you can just tell me. ”
Princess Wuyou's words made Mu Ru Yue want to laugh. Although this little princess was very troublesome, her heart was indeed very kind. At the very least, they were not enemies.
For something else?
Mu Ru Yue didn't think too much about it.
Thinking like this, Murong Yue and Princess Wuyou arrived at the main hall. At this moment, there were many palace maids and eunuchs, presumably following the empress here. At this moment, the empress was seated at the head of the table. Beside her were two maids fanning her. Beside the queen sat another woman. This woman was none other than Lady Wan, whom he hadn't seen for two days. Today, she was wearing a white dress. She looked gentle and generous.
Not to mention her character, if it was only her appearance, at the very least, out of the people present, no one could compare to her.
The Seventh Marquis sat at the side, looking straight in the direction Mu Ru Yue had come from.
When the Queen saw Murong Yue and Princess Wuyou enter, she raised her eyes and looked at them.
