Someone who came back that night said that Fu Lingbo was poisoned and escaped. He expected that the woman would not have survived even if she had not died in the fire.
It was he who secretly sent people to spread the news about Fu Lingbo's death in the fire, and also found a burnt substitute, making everyone think that the second young lady of the Fu family was dead.
In order to avoid future troubles, he also continued to send people to investigate privately, even if her body was found.
Unfortunately, nothing was found.
After so many years, things have gone smoothly, and he has long since given up on continuing to silence him.
A waste, even if there is a little bit of hope, what kind of trouble can she make?
"Miss Mu is an honored guest, and we Ziwu should treat her with courtesy." Fu Lingqiu's voice deepened, "But Lingbo is my deceased second sister. I hope Miss Mu won't make fun of this matter casually."
Mu Lingbo's eyes turned and he suddenly smiled playfully, "You call me Miss Mu. When will the money that the Fu family owes Miss Mu arrive?"
Fu Lingqiu's face turned even uglier.
Xuanyuan Jing then spoke in a low voice, "Girl, please take a seat."
Mu Lingbo only glanced at the place with boredom, "I didn't see any place that made me want to sit, so forget it. However, since I'm here, I should give you a generous gift."
Everyone was originally surprised as to why she no longer worried about whether it was the second young lady of the Fu family, but now they began to wonder what kind of generous gift she was talking about.
Mu Lingbo took out the small box in his hand and handed it to a palace servant, "I told the king that I came here on behalf of one person to send a congratulatory gift to the prince on his wedding. This is a congratulatory gift."
The palace attendant presented the small, narrow wooden box. Seeing that the prince looked at it alertly but had no intention of taking it, the palace attendant immediately understood and pushed the box to a place some distance away from the prince and opened it.
Although Mu Lingbo had no intention of taking a seat, he was tired of standing, so he found an empty table and half-sat on it.
When she saw the palace man's cautious look, she sneered and said rudely, "Oh, Your Highness, are you so afraid? Could it be that I still want to assassinate you in front of so many people?"
The seven or eight people present here have all seen the scene and know that this is a good show, so they all watched quietly.
Hearing her teasing words, everyone remained silent.
The box was opened, and there was only a bright yellow scroll lying quietly inside.
"The imperial decree of the royal family..." The palace servant once again handed it over with both hands and presented it to the prince.
This bright yellow satin scroll was very old. Xuanyuan Jing took one look at the woman's Ling Ran smile and immediately took the imperial edict over.
As soon as the silk satin was unfolded, the prince's face immediately turned ugly.
Fu Lingqiu saw something was wrong with him and moved his eyes away. He was shocked after just one glance.
"I asked, are you illiterate? Why didn't you say anything after reading this? The crown prince and princess of Ziwu can't understand each other, right?" Mu Lingbo picked a fruit from the empty fruit bowl on the table.
Grape.
Fu Lingqiu stood up immediately, "This belongs to my Fu family, where did you get it from?"
Mu Lingbo ate the grapes and said calmly, "Where did I get it from? Of course I took it with me when I left. You said it belonged to the Fu family, which is correct. But in the final analysis
, this thing still belongs to me, right?"
It was an imperial edict from the Lord of Ziwu that made her, a second young lady under ten years old without a father or mother, be engaged to the Crown Prince and become the future Crown Princess.
