Chapter 357 Feng Zhiyuan is arrested
At the Wen residence, Du Mingxian was in her room thinking about what had happened during the day. After meeting with Ling Silang, she quietly went to the women's quarters in the front courtyard for a meal before returning to her room.
Chun Tao is still inside the space and hasn't woken up yet.
After much deliberation, Du Mingxian quietly left the mansion late at night and abandoned Chun Tao on the street. Before doing so, she removed the sleeping potion from Chun Tao.
After throwing the person out, she secretly watched Chun Tao from inside the space.
In the dark of night, Chun Tao slowly woke up, sat up and found herself on the street. A look of confusion flashed in her eyes. She looked around and found that no one was around, so she got up.
After standing there for a while, Chun Tao walked towards the Wen residence, with Du Mingxian following far behind. Just as Chun Tao was about to enter the residence, Du Mingxian watched from outside.
Chun Tao told Du Mingxian that she didn't know martial arts, but Chun Tao outside the wall only saw her lightly touch the ground with her toes and then fly over it.
Du Mingxian knew that Chuntao wasn't telling the truth; she was quite shrewd.
She quietly followed Chun Tao until Chun Tao returned to the courtyard and did not interact with anyone else, then she hurriedly returned to the courtyard.
Chun Tao was in Du Mingxian's room. When she saw her come in, her expression turned slightly cold. "Where have you been?"
Du Mingxian had never seen Chun Tao like this before, as if she wanted to devour someone. As if she didn't notice Chun Tao's strange mood, she rushed forward and grabbed Chun Tao's hand, "You're finally back! Where did you go? Are you alright?"
Chuntao was stunned.
“I didn’t see you when I came back from the front yard, and I didn’t dare to go out to look for you. When Ke’er and the others asked, I told them that you had gone out to run errands.”
Chun Tao asked, somewhat dazed, "Where did you go just now?"
"I was looking for you. I couldn't sleep and was worried something had happened to you, so I quietly searched the yard. Where did you go?"
Perhaps because Du Mingxian's acting was so good, Chun Tao believed most of it, but she didn't dare to believe it completely. "I was in the front yard when I saw you heading towards the back yard. I was worried that something had happened to you, so I followed you. Halfway there, I felt someone behind me and wanted to turn around to see what was going on. Before I could turn around, I felt like I was being pricked by a needle in my neck, and then I knew nothing more."
"What? You were attacked?" Du Mingxian looked at her in surprise. "How could this happen? Are you alright?"
"I'm fine. I just woke up in the garden."
Du Mingxian patted her chest and said, "It's good that you're alright. It was really scary. How could someone have been watching you? I even went to the garden to look for you, but I didn't see you. I must not have looked carefully enough."
Seeing Du Mingxian's self-reproach and hearing that she had gone to the garden, Chun Tao said somewhat guiltily, "The place where I was placed was a secluded corner, it's normal that you couldn't find me."
"It's such a relief you're alright. Who would do this to you? Is it someone you know?"
Chun Tao shook her head. "I don't know who it was." She really didn't know, but there weren't many people in the capital who knew her, so she didn't know who did it.
Du Mingxian asked anxiously, "Could it be that someone is planning something?"
“It shouldn’t be. They might be after you.” Chun Tao’s eyes were suspicious. “I was following behind you. They knocked me out so they could better track you.”
"Huh? Why would I be following you? Everyone has to go to the bathroom. I've been following the old lady around for a while now, so as soon as the ceremony ended, I rushed to the back garden, which is closer."
At this point, Du Mingxian suddenly looked terrified. "Could it be that someone is spying on me?"
Chun Tao: "..."
"What should I do, Chun Tao? I can't relax at all, I'm so scared..."
Chun Tao was speechless. She took her hand and shook it, "It's alright, it's alright, Miss, don't worry."
Du Mingxian seemed very nervous, and Chuntao comforted her for a while before leaving to return to her own room.
After Chuntao left, Du Mingxian smiled and went straight to bed. Acting was quite tiring.
As Du Mingxian was stretching after waking up in the early morning, Chuntao said from the bedside, "Miss, something has happened."
Du Mingxian sat up abruptly and lifted the bed curtains. "What's wrong?"
"The second young master of the Feng family has been arrested."
"What? They just got married yesterday, and they're arrested today?"
Chuntao quickly said, "Miss will never guess the reason."
Du Mingxian's mind raced. "Could it be that Feng Zhiyuan is the one plotting against me?"
"It was him. Because of the Sixth Prince's matter, Feng Zhiyuan was arrested. The one who led the arrest was Lord Wen, the Fourth Master."
Du Mingxian suddenly wanted to laugh, "Shiyan and Feng Zhiyuan got married. My uncle is a relative, so why doesn't he know to avoid suspicion and actually went to arrest people?"
"The Emperor has ordered that Fourth Prince investigate this matter thoroughly."
"The old lady didn't make a scene?"
"No, it's very calm. The second young lady came back early this morning, crying and sobbing, and went straight to the old lady's courtyard. She hasn't come out yet."
Du Mingxian hurriedly got out of bed. "Hurry up and get me dressed and have breakfast. There's probably going to be some excitement later."
Chuntao hurriedly began to serve.
After Du Mingxian finished eating, there was still no news from the other side, and she was getting a little anxious. "Chuntao, go over there and see if there's any news."
"Yes."
Chuntao returned shortly after she left.
"Miss, the second young lady is making a scene in the old lady's courtyard, wanting to divorce Feng Zhiyuan."
"Divorce? They got married yesterday and are getting a divorce today?" Du Mingxian narrowed her eyes to slits. "There's bound to be some drama in the capital."
"There's a commotion over there. Madam is crying over there, saying that if the family doesn't want to take the second young lady back after she divorces Feng Zhiyuan, she can provide her with a house so that the second young lady can live in the house by herself."
Du Mingxian nodded silently, "This matter is probably difficult to handle. It's already set in stone, and the Feng and Wen families have a marriage agreement. Wen Shiyan just got married into the family, so it's probably not feasible for her to leave now."
"However, since Feng Zhiyuan hired someone to kill someone, it is still the Sixth Prince who will be harmed. The Emperor will probably not let Feng Zhiyuan off the hook. It would be better if Feng Zhiyuan were killed directly."
"With Lord Feng here, Feng Zhiyuan won't die, but harming a prince is a serious crime, and he might be exiled, exiled..."
She suddenly froze. "If Wen Shiyan doesn't get a divorce this time, she won't be able to leave the Feng family. If Feng Zhiyuan is to be exiled, Wen Shiyan will definitely have to go with him."
Chuntao nodded in agreement, "Miss's analysis is correct."
Du Mingxian remained silent for a long time. Old Madam Wen probably wouldn't agree to a divorce. Firstly, Wen Shiyan had just gotten married, and a direct divorce would make the Wen family seem cold-hearted. Secondly, Wen Shiyan wasn't the Wen family's biological daughter, so Old Madam Wen probably wouldn't care and would even take her anger out on her.
"Let's go take a look."
Chun Tao hesitated, "Should we go? There's a commotion right now. If you go, won't the Second Miss make things difficult for you?"
