Along the way, the palace lanterns were bright, the road was clear and smooth, the stars were bright in the sky, and the moonlight was cold.
Wei Ning raised her chin slightly, and the panicked look on her face disappeared, replaced by an indifferent face.
The corners of his mouth raised slightly.
What effect would her probing words have on Mu Zihan?
With Mu Qingning's character in the past, it was absolutely impossible for her to say such things, unless she was really a brainless fool!
The only possibility is that someone has provoked him.
Who would Mu Zihan suspect?
That kind of person is inherently suspicious, and she doesn't believe he won't be suspicious.
Obviously, the most suspicious person is Duan Mulei.
She was not deliberately setting up the blame. In fact, didn't the Duanmu family just hope to win over her as the prince, gain support from some royal families, strengthen their power, and attempt to compete with the regent?
Then she would do a favor and notify Mu Zihan in advance. In fact, this kind of thing could not be hidden from Mu Zihan's eyes.
But, without some stimulation, how can it be effective?
Next, it depends on how the two of them find ways to steal her sweet potato.
If you really want a puppet, there really is no other good choice besides her!
When clams and cranes fight, who will win?
Next, she has more important things to deal with.
As for the identity of codename N, now that she has been exposed a little bit, Mu Zihan must not be allowed to doubt her in a short period of time.
So, she needs to take some action!

Duanmu Mansion
The Duanmu family is powerful, and their mansion is stately and luxurious, with a garden even more beautiful than the Imperial Garden.
Wei Ning looked around, with admiration in his mouth. The attendant who was leading the way showed a proud look in his eyes.
"Your Highness, the grandeur of our mansion is no worse than that of the palace, right?" the attendant said very proudly.
Wei Ning nodded: "Of course, the palace can't even compare!"
While he was talking, he had already reached the backyard, and the sound of silk and bamboo orchestral music could be heard, which was gorgeous and luxurious.
Wei Ning sneered in her heart, the eldest daughter of the Duanmu family had just died, and Duanmulei had not been sad for a few days. The mourning period had not passed, so he was just drinking and having fun at home. He was indeed a heartless person!
"Hahaha! Your Highness the Crown Prince is here, come and see His Highness the Crown Prince!"
Duan Mulei looked up and saw her, then laughed and stood up. He had already drank and his steps were slightly disordered.
Wei Ning glanced at the backyard, where several tables of banquets were held, with fine wine and delicacies, and singers and dancers in cool clothes were among them to add to the fun. And those present were all the noble children of Haojing City.
Wei Ning also recognized a few of them, they were nothing more than cuckold friends who often hung out with Duan Mulei.
When this group of people saw her, they all had a bit of disdain in their eyes, but when they thought that the prince was now a dandy and degenerate like them, they started laughing.
"Your Majesty, you are late, so you will be punished with three cups of wine!"
"Yes! Drink!"
Several people had already come over, holding wine glasses and joining in the fun.
Wei Ning looked troubled and looked to Duan Mulei for help: "I was scolded by the emperor's uncle before I came here to play. Please spare me this drink."
Upon hearing that she was reprimanded by the regent, Duan Mulei laughed even louder.
"Hahaha! It's okay to be scolded a few times, but you will forget it after a few more glasses of wine!"
As he said this, he personally filled the uncondensed wine glass and asked her to drink it.
Wei Ning knew she couldn't escape, so she had no choice but to drink three cups. She was so spicy that she coughed, and the group of noble disciples couldn't help but laugh even more happily.
