Chapter 73: How is this Possible!

.."Boom—"Ruitianling's face was burning, he stared blankly at Chen Zixuan...Chen Zixuan is truly awake now...She carefully distinguished the magnified profile before her...How familiar, who is thisWel...The third wife was unconscious with her eyes closed…

"Just jab the center of her forehead!" The mistress took down the hairpin from her head, pushed open Murong Rou and fiercely stabbed the hairpin into the third wife's skin...

Murong Rou wanted to stop her but it was too late... She watched in horror as the mistress' hairpin plunged straight into her mother's flesh...

Mother... you suffered... Murong Rou silently wept...

The mistress carefully watched the Third Madam's reaction, making sure she had truly fainted, before raising an eyebrow and slowly pulling out the hairpin. "Send the Third Madam to rest and call a doctor."

"Yes, Mistress!"

“Mother, mother, mother, wake up, don't scare Rou’er……” Murong Rou looked at the pale face of the Third Madam and trembled inside. Mother, you mustn't have anything happen! Only you are good to Rou’er. Our mother and daughter have depended on each other for so many years. If anything happens to you, what should I do Mother…”

"Quickly summon the doctor!" Seeing that Lady Three's blood flowed more and more, the Prime Minister was also very anxious. He shouted at the servants to call for a doctor.

Yes, yes!

"Yes, Master!"

The Prime Minister's residence was in utter chaos...

Muran Yue quietly pulled the mistress to the bamboo garden outside.

"Guard the perimeter, no one is to approach!"

"Yes, mistress!"

With the servants all gone, only Murong Yue and her daughter remained in the bamboo garden.

"Mother, you're the only one who can do this!" Murong Yue excitedly tugged on her mother's hand.

The mistress merely glanced at her with a faint expression, then slowly sat down on the stone bench and said: "Yue'er, you are too anxious..."

"Mother, you saw the situation back then, didn't you It was beyond Yue'er's control..." Murong Yue coquettishly addressed her mistress.

"Yue'er, mother has told you many times, when doing things, one cannot be hasty, one must proceed cautiously..."

"Understood, Mother! You're the best, Mother!" Murong Yue smiled and leaned against her mistress's shoulder.

"Yue'er, you're not a child anymore. Make up your mind sooner rather than later, is it the Third Prince or the Sixth Prince..."

"San Wangye... Murong Yue widened her eyes, staring at her mother... Mother, how did you know..."

"You don't have to stare at me like that. I'm sitting in the mistress's seat, if I don't know what's going on in the house, how can I possibly hold this position"

"Mother, you actually dared to put eyeliner on me! Mother! This is too much!" Murong Yue turned her back...

"If I hadn't been here to put eyeliner on you, you would have been skinned alive by Mrs. and Miss Murong today! You think that without your mother cleaning up after you, your threats could intimidate that maid Don't forget how she got into the Prime Minister's Residence in the first place…"

"But, mother... I threatened her with the lives of her whole family... Wouldn't she be afraid"

The Mistress sighed and said, "You must know, once threatened, you have to seize her weakness, or the consequences will be unimaginable..."

"Could her family not be her weakness"

"Yes, but not the most significant weakness…"

"That..."

"That guard... if your plan succeeds today, she can live. If it fails, then she must die to atone, or else that guard will only be able to accompany her as her husband while watching her family being killed..."

A few short words sent a chill down Murong Yue's spine.

Seeing that Murong Yue wasn't speaking, the mistress patted her head and said, "Mother did all this for you, so you have to work hard! Don't associate with that Third Prince anymore, he isn't your destiny, don't waste any more time on him!"

Murong Yue thought for a moment, then nodded...

"You've gone too far this time. Be careful, the Sixth Prince might change his mind."

"Don't worry, Mother! Even if he doesn't change his mind, I won't marry him. My heart belongs to the Crown Prince!"

"Prince... The prince is indeed quite good..."

"Mother... you have to help me! Even the Crown Prince won't get close to me... Mother..." Murong Yue grasped her mother's hand, shaking it...

"Good..." The mistress caressed Murong Yue's head lovingly.

"By the way, Mother, what about the Fifth Prince's token Will it really implicate the entire Murong Prime Minister's Mansion" Murong Yue looked at her mistress with some concern.

The mistress pondered for a while and said, "Yes, so we should send Murong Rou to the Fifth Prince's Mansion to vent his anger... However, with the Fifth Prince being assassinated, it is not appropriate to punish Murong Rou at this time. Otherwise, it would make the Prime Minister's Mansion responsible for assassinating the Fifth Prince, which would be a terrible accusation. Since the Fifth Prince did not make the assassination public tonight, he must have his own plans. We should think about this in the long term... Let your father investigate during tomorrow's court meeting first..."

The mistress hesitated for a moment and then said, "That wretch, you spare her life!"

"Why, Mother! Haven't you always hated Murong Ke'er and her mother Now that her mother is gone, and Ke'er is in danger as well, why spare her life"

"It'll come in handy later! Mother was right!"

"Alright, Yue'er will listen to Mother..." Murong Yue leaned back into the main wife's arms...

It was already dawn, and the reflection of the sun on the river surface shimmered and shone, making Su Wenhao feel a little uncomfortable. He raised his hand to block it for a while, until his eyes adjusted to the light, then slowly sat up...

Looking at the scattered wine jugs on the ground, and the Second Prince lying beside them, he suddenly remembered that he had spent the night drinking with the Second Prince by the river last night.

Alas...I don't know how she is doing, whether she's well...

Su Wenhao was worried about Chen Zixuan and planned to go back home to change his clothes before visiting the Fifth Prince's Mansion.

He patted the second prince's shoulder: "Second Prince, Second Prince, the great writer is going back to his estate now…"

"Go...don't disturb me while I search for poems in my dreams..." the Second Lord turned over and continued to sleep.

Su Wenhao smiled and woke up Huai Ping who was sleeping soundly in the distance. The two of them arrived at Su Mansion before dawn broke completely.

"Master, Master, you're finally back!" A servant ran out, "The Old Master has been waiting for you for a long time!"

"Father waiting for me Why didn't anyone notify me!" Su Wenhao jumped out of the carriage, "Do you know what it is that Father is waiting for me for"

That servant shook his head: "My master only allowed me to bring young master to the study as soon as I saw him…"

Su Wenhao nodded and followed the servant into the study. “Father…”

The head of the Su family glanced at the visitor, put down his teacup, and took out a letter from his bosom. “Take a look at this…”

Su Wenhao respectfully took the letter and opened it, “How is this possible!”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Su Wenhao crumpled the entire letter in his hand, his knuckles turning white with tension... she wanted to peel his skin off. Wuji, knowing when to back down, waved his hand dismissively. "Never mind what I said…"Mu Jinjiao knelt before the master's chair in the secret room, her upper body s...
