Chapter 543: It was arranged by someone in the palace
When he heard the name Su Zijiao, his eyes flickered, and then he put on an arrogant look and was not prepared to respond to her.

"What did your master want you to do by sneaking into Duke Cheng's mansion? To steal things?" Xu Muhua guessed, and without waiting for the other party to respond, he said, "It shouldn't be that simple. Let me think about it..."

She stood up straight and walked back and forth slowly in front of him, saying as she walked: "Is it possible that your master asked you to sneak into the Duke Cheng's Mansion and arranged for another person to run into you, and then subconsciously shouted loudly, attracting the attention of the guests drinking in the front yard, and then..."

She paused and looked at him sideways. "When everyone is gathered, let someone casually say, how could there be barbarians in the Chengguo Mansion? Could it be that the Chengguo Duke is colluding with the enemy? If so, maybe someone will take advantage of the situation and search my father and my elder brother's study under a pretext, and then really find evidence that my father and my elder brother have communicated with the barbarian country?"

"Finally, you, the key witness, come and admit that my father has been in contact and collusion with the enemy country at the border for so many years, and has been waiting for the right opportunity to rebel. Do you think my guess is correct?"

The other party widened his eyes, full of disbelief.

Did he intend to take advantage of the wedding being held at the Chengguo Mansion today to wipe out the entire family, and frame them for treason? Wouldn't that mean the entire nine generations of their clan would be executed?

So cruel! So cruel!
The man quickly calmed down and sneered - although his mouth was blocked and he didn't laugh out loud, it didn't prevent Xu Muhua and Liang Ming from feeling his mood at the moment, because his eyes exposed it nakedly.

Xu Muhua thought about it and let Liang Ming pull out the rag that was blocking his mouth. As soon as the rag was pulled out of his mouth, he couldn't help but retching.

Xu Muhua's eyes fell on the rag.

Seeing this, Liang Ming said, "I don't know what this rag is used for. I just picked it up in the corner."

Xu Muhua fell silent.

No wonder it tastes so disgusting, I don’t even know what it is used for.

But it’s well used!

Hearing Liang Ming's words, the man couldn't help but dry heave again.

"You can kill me or chop me up as you please! If you want to hear something from me, I tell you, it's wishful thinking! I won't say anything! Don't waste your energy!"

Xu Muhua clicked his tongue twice. "From what you said, you seem quite courageous. But you're overthinking it. I don't want to ask anything from you."

The man was stunned for a moment.

Xu Muhua smiled slightly: "I just need to know what you are going to do, and then stop you and prevent you from accomplishing it. You want to frame the Chengguo Mansion, but I won't let you! And..."

She moved closer and lowered her voice, "I know you were not sent by Su Ziqiao. The person who asked you to frame the Duke Cheng's Mansion was not Su Ziqiao, but... someone in the palace."

The man's eyes widened in shock and he wanted to say something, but Xu Muhua raised his hand and Liang Ming quickly covered his mouth again, not giving him a chance to speak.

"Have him dealt with so that people will think he has never been to Duke Cheng's Mansion. Do you understand?"

Although Liang Ming didn't understand why he had to do this, he didn't ask any more questions, "Don't worry, Miss, I will definitely get it done!"

The enemies of the Chengguo Mansion are his enemies! They are still working in the Chengguo Mansion. If the Chengguo Mansion is framed for the crime of treason, they will all die! Damn it, who is so vicious that he wants to get rid of the Chengguo Mansion with such a crime?

The Su Ziqiao that the eldest lady mentioned just now, isn't that someone from the Xu Mansion next door? Could this incident have been done by the Xu Mansion next door?

Liang Ming was suspicious, but soon he denied this suspicion.

He also knew what kind of people the Xu family next door were like. With their means and courage, they couldn't do such a thing. Unless there was someone else behind them, that was the mastermind behind this matter.

Fortunately, I listened to the eldest lady's instructions today and made preparations early. Otherwise, it would be just like what the eldest lady said just now, and the eldest master's wedding would have turned into a funeral!
"Miss, what about the Duke..."

"I will go talk to Dad in person. You should deal with this man first. Quickly!"

Otherwise, if time drags on too long, the person in the palace might get impatient and start to become suspicious.

Who else but the one sitting on the dragon throne could be so anxious and determined to get rid of Duke Cheng's Mansion by any means necessary?

If she didn't have so many little helpers, Duke Cheng's Mansion would really have turned into purgatory tonight.

The emperor also had someone hide the so-called letters of treason in his father's study, waiting for someone to discover that there were barbarians in the mansion. When the incident became a big deal, he would search the mansion and find these letters of treason.

In the end, he was able to get rid of Duke Cheng's Mansion with confidence and in a natural and logical way, without having to bear the stigma of being a tyrant.

As for whether others believe it or not, it doesn't matter. The "evidence" is there, so what if they don't believe it? What if they know the truth in their hearts? After a long time, who would still remember the Chengguo Mansion!
Liang Ming ignored the man's struggle and chopped him down with his knife again, and the man immediately fainted. He carried the man up, nodded to Xu Muhua, and quickly disappeared into the night.

Xu Muhua, on the other hand, walked back to the front yard leisurely and as if nothing had happened.

Xu's mother, who had been very busy today, paused when she saw her hurried steps and asked, "Why are you still here? Didn't you go back to the East Palace?"

Xu Muhua glared slightly, "Mom, who said I was going back to the East Palace? My eldest brother is getting married today, I will definitely stay here, why would I go back to the East Palace?"

Before Xu's mother could finish her words of blame, she said, "Mom, don't worry about me. The prince also agreed to this matter. He suggested that I stay."

Now that she had brought up the prince, Xu's mother had no idea what to say.

Although she knew in her heart that it was probably she who took the initiative to ask to stay, and the prince just didn't care about it!

She reached out and poked her head gently, "You, you just rely on the prince's good temper and easy to talk to!"

Xu Muhua tilted his head along with her force, "Mom, I also have a good temper and am easy to talk to!"

Otherwise, how could the East Palace be so peaceful now, and how could his relationship with Arong be so harmonious! Is this the reward from the prince for her? She feels at ease!
As she thought about it, her thoughts paused.

I just wonder if she really killed the person sitting on the throne later, and if the prince knew about it, would he kill her... Oh, that's not right, she had the idea, but she didn't carry out the action!
So strictly speaking, she can't be considered as Zhao Chengye's father's murderer, right?
