The evil woman becomes the concubine and the villain is crushed to ashes

The Third Prince did say such words out of anger, but in his heart, he and his mother were the closest. As for the Mu family or Prime Minister Mu, they were indeed outsiders.

Of course, they are all one's own people now. But now this one of their own people does not listen to him and even joins hands with his mother to undermine him, the third prince. No one will feel good about it.

The more the third prince thought about it, the more suffocated he felt, so he spoke directly.

"Mother, I want to ask you one question today. If something happens to the Mu family or me in the future, will you choose to save the Mu family or save me?"

Concubine Wan looked at the third brother in disbelief.

"You kid, do you know what you are saying? Why are you saying such unlucky words? How could anything happen to you and the Mu family? Don't worry, with the Mu family escorting you, you will definitely be able to board safely..."

"I don't want to hear it anymore!"

Talking about something else is one answer.

The third prince interrupted his mother coldly, staring at Concubine Wan with resentful eyes for a long time, but in the end he couldn't say anything more serious, so he flicked his sleeves and left angrily.

"Third brother! Third brother, come back!"

Concubine Wan took two steps to chase him, but the third prince had already left the bedroom.

Concubine Wan was unsure of what to say after catching up with her son, so she could only watch him go away.

After a while, the bedroom returned to peace.

The main reason was that the palace maids didn't dare to speak out.

The palace maid who had just served Concubine Wan came in and supported Concubine Wan, who was trembling with anger, and said.

"My lady, please don't be too angry. It will be bad for your health if you get angry."

Concubine Wan shook off the palace maid's hand and cursed through gritted teeth.

"This child really doesn't know what's good for him! My father is doing this for his own good, how can he be so willful?"

The palace maid's eyes flickered slightly, but she looked calm while speaking.

"Your Highness, the Third Prince has grown up and has his own ideas. This is normal. He is just young and does not understand Prime Minister Mu's painstaking efforts. If you invite His Highness to the palace from time to time and have a good talk with him, His Highness will surely understand."

After listening to the palace maid's advice, Concubine Wan finally calmed down. With the help of the palace maid, she returned to her seat and said, holding her forehead.

"You're right. This child is just too young. My father is well-informed and won't argue with him. But if this child continues to make trouble, it would be bad if he hurts his father's feelings one day. I still have to mediate."

Having said this, Concubine Wan looked at the palace maid and said.

"I am also doing this for the good of the Third Brother. He is young and cannot tell good from bad. Even if the Xiao family is no longer useful, they are still loyal to him. As for the Xie family, no matter how capable they are, what does it matter?"

"Father is right. The Xie family is rebellious. The third brother has offered olive branches many times before, but the Xie family refused to accept. If that's the case, why keep them around? A disobedient dog should be beaten and eaten. Are we keeping them around to bite us back in the future?"

Speaking of this, Concubine Wan narrowed her eyes.

"Go and tell Shunpin to act quickly. We can't wait to deal with the Xie family, lest the Third Brother still has other ideas."

The maid said respectfully, "I understand."

On the other side, the third prince returned to the carriage angrily.

The carriage moved slowly, Mo Yu opened the curtain, got into the carriage, and said respectfully, "Your Highness."

But apart from calling out, he couldn't say anything else that could ease the Third Prince's worries.

The Third Prince did not conceal his anger on his face; the only sound in the small carriage was his heavy breathing.

After a while, things seemed to calm down a lot, and Mo Yu dared to ask carefully.

"Your Highness, judging from your expression, the Queen still has no intention of giving up on the Xie family. What should we do now? Should we stop them? Or should we give the Xie family a tip? Or should we take the initiative to win over the Xie family?"

Upon hearing this, the third prince glanced at Mo Yu and suddenly asked.

"Are you also the spy that my grandfather arranged for me?"

Mo Yu was startled, then his face turned pale, and he immediately knelt down and said.

"I am not! I am only thinking about the Third Prince, and I dare not have any other thoughts. I am not a spy arranged by Prime Minister Mu to be by His Highness' side!"

Mo Yu's face was buried in his hands. The Third Prince could not see his expression at the moment. He could only see the top of Mo Yu's head.

After a while, the third prince spoke coldly.

"You better not be..."

After saying that, he asked Mo Yu to get up, then he closed his eyes and sat in the carriage without saying a word.

Mo Yu was soaked with sweat all over. He raised his eyes carefully and found that the Third Prince had his eyes closed and was not looking at him. However, he still did not dare to act rashly and continued to kneel there, not daring to move.

He really didn't know why His Highness had such an idea. No matter what, His Highness had such an idea, it was very dangerous for him...

Mo Yu just felt that the future days would be difficult and miserable.

……

Xie family.

After taking a bath, Xie Lingxi, with the help of Qiao'er, wrung her hair half dry with a towel and said to Qiao'er.

"It's late at night, you should go out and get some rest early."

Qiao Er said respectfully, "I understand. I will send the young lady's clothes down to be washed."

As he was talking, he was packing up the clothes that Xie Lingxi had taken off, but when he picked them up, something fell out.

Qiao'er took a closer look and exclaimed.

"what is this?"

As he spoke, he squatted down to pick it up.

When Xie Lingxi heard the noise, she turned around and was startled when she saw the letter in Qiao'er's hand. She quickly stepped forward and snatched it away.

Qiao'er looked over in surprise again.

"Miss, what is this?"

Xie Lingxi subconsciously hid behind him, but when she saw Qiao'er's inquiring look, she pretended to be calm and spoke.

"Nothing, why are you asking so many questions? Hurry up and take your clothes to be washed and clean up the place. I don't need to serve you tonight, just go to sleep."

Xie Lingxi really didn't know how to explain it, so she just started to cheat.

Qiao'er didn't dare to ask more questions, so she could only put the letter behind her and packed her clothes and bathtub.

Xie Lingxi hurried back to the inner room, and when she heard the noise outside had died down, she took out the letter.

I was busy today and forgot about this letter. Luckily Qiao'er didn't see it...

I don’t know what His Royal Highness Prince Chen wrote in this letter, and he asked Si Ling to tell me mysteriously and let me read it alone.

Xie Lingxi's curiosity was aroused. She walked to the table and sat down. She moved the candlestick closer, then carefully opened the envelope and took the letter out of it.

"Knock Knock-"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the window.

Xie Lingxi was startled.

He put on his coat almost subconsciously, then took out a dagger from the vase, clenched his hands, and stared at the window vigilantly.

She was sure that she had heard correctly, three even knocks, there must be someone outside! Or a thief!
