Chapter 1106: A Dragon Robe

Mu Qing’s face contorted, then she hastily greeted Mu Xue. “Mu Qing greets Your Highness Crown Prince.”

Mu Xue’s gaze swept across Mu Qing’s face. Her brows furrowed slightly, but that expression soon disappeared. She greeted Mu Qing as well, and said, “Fifth Imperial Sister, h.e.l.lo.”

Mu Qing’s facial muscles were a little stiff and contorted a little bit. She withdrew back to Ning Shu’s side. Having grown up in the cold palace, she was a very good at reading expressions and could sharply sense when others harbored malicious intentions. She could sense the coldness and hint of ridicule in this crown prince’s eyes.

Ning Shu smiled gently as she said, “This child is very clever and obedient, we quite like her.”

Mu Qing: d.a.m.ned old witch...

“Ever since Mu Yao, that child left, there was no one else for us to talk to. Fortunately there’s this child to talk with us now.” Ning Shu looked towards Mu Qing with a kindly gaze.

Please stop talking!

Mu Qing’s eyelids were twitching like crazy as she lowered her head in a bashful manner.

Mu Xue narrowed her eyes. First it was Mu Yao, now someone like Mu Qing had appeared. Mu Xue inwardly gave a cold laugh.

Ning Shu stood up. “We just came to visit you. We thought that you finally reflected on your wrongs, so we were planning to release you from house arrest, but from the looks of things now, your house arrest should continue. You don’t seem to have regretted things at all.”

Mu Xue’s brows were tightly furrowed. She knelt on the ground as she said, “Imperial Mother, this subject daughter really understands that she has wronged. This subject daughter is truly sorry about what happened with Fourth Imperial Sister. This subject daughter had never wanted to hurt Fourth Imperial Sister!”

Ning Shu said coldly, “You’re not being honest. We’ve asked you before why you went to Mu Yao’s residence, but you didn’t answer us. What exactly made you go against the imperial decree to go to Fourth’s residence? We want to hear the reason.”

Mu Xue’s eyes flashed, causing her eyes to seem conspicuously darker. After a moment of hesitation, she said, “This subject daughter heard that in Fourth Imperial Sister’s residence, there was... a dragon robe.”

”Audacious!” Ning Shu picked up a teacup and threw it towards Mu Xue’s head. Mu Xue moved slightly and dodged the teacup. The teacup fell to the ground and shattered, causing tea to spill all over the ground. Steam rose up from the heat.

Ning Shu: Fudge, she actually dared to dodge!

“Imperial Mother, this subject daughter only heard about it, so this subject daughter had wanted to visit Fourth Imperial Sister’s residence to make sure.” As Mu Xue brought this up, her heart was filled with regret. She really shouldn’t have gone to the Fourth Prince’s residence.

Back then she had been sure that there was a dragon robe in the Fourth Prince’s residence. It was due to a sort of feeling like ‘the daughter you love the most has secretly hidden a dragon robe in her residence. She looks simple and guileless, but she’s also someone filled with schemes.’

She went to the fourth prince’s residence, but unexpectedly something like that had happened. It caught her completely unprepared.

“Then did you find the dragon robe?” Ning Shu looked towards Mu Xue coldly.

Mu Xue pressed her lips together, then shook her head. “After that incident occurred, this subject daughter didn’t look for the dragon robe.”

“You didn’t tell us about something like this and tried to deal with it secretly yourself? What exactly were you trying to achieve? Crown Prince, as the monarch of the nation, a lot of people keep an eye on your every move. You rashly disobeyed the imperial decree for such a groundless rumor? It seems like you still need to continue to reflect under house arrest.”

“Your Majesty, please quell your anger.” All the ministers in the courtyard knelt down. All of them pled for leniency for Mu Xue. “Your Majesty, the crown prince was simply too driven to find out the truth, that’s why she did something so impulsive.”
