Chapter 140: The Conspiracy Begins

Dongfang Yu'er has been living in Mowang's Mansion for two days, not to mention chatting with Mu Liyue to relax, and when she heard the news from the next person, she never even went out of the door.

However, Mu Liyue didn't bother to care, just make sure that the person was okay, and wait a few days before sending the person back to the palace.

Early in the morning of the third day, one of Dongfang Yu'er's maids came to Qingfeng Courtyard to find Mu Liyue, saying that Princess Yu'er invited her to have breakfast with her in Youlan Courtyard.

"Princess Yu'er, are you there?" asked Mu Liyue as she knocked on the door.

After knocking a few times, she found that there was no movement inside, and no one came to open the door, Mu Liyue used her divine sense to probe into the room, and found that in the direction of the door, Dongfang Yu'er and Mama were there.

"It's strange, the princess and the grandmother are here, why didn't anyone open the door?"

Mu Liyue was standing outside the door thinking, when she suddenly heard the sound of a heavy object falling from inside, she slammed open the door, and found that Dongfang Yu'er and the grandmother she brought had fallen to the ground.

Mu Liyue quickly stepped forward to check the breathing of the two of them, and found that both of them were dead.

"Ah, murder. ”

Suddenly, a maid outside the house screamed loudly, and the basin of water in her hand fell to the ground, looking at Mu Liyue in horror.

Before Mu Liyue could speak, a majestic voice came from outside, "What's going on?"

The maid knelt on the ground in fright, and in the next second, a bright yellow figure entered the room, followed by Mo Lin and Mo Jue.

"Very good, this time is really accurate. Mu Liyue couldn't help but think.

"Yu'er!" Dongfang Zhenyi entered the door, saw Dongfang Yu'er lying on the ground, and quickly walked over, "Yu'er, what's wrong with you?"

After speaking, he stared at Mu Liyue: "Mu Liyue, what's going on? Yu'er came to Mowang's Mansion well, how could something happen?"

Mu Liyue said with an innocent face: "I don't know, the princess asked me to come over to share breakfast, I just knocked on the door and found that no one opened the door, and suddenly I heard movement in the house, so I broke in, but when I came in, the princess and Mama were already dead." ”

"She's lying!" came the trembling voice of the maid outside the door, and after saying that, she seemed to be very frightened, and tried to shrink back.

Dongfang Zhen turned his gaze to the maid and said, "You, tell me what you see as it is, and I want to know who killed my princess." ”

The maid glanced at Mu Liyue cautiously, and then quickly lowered her head and did not speak, as if she was afraid to speak.

Dongfang Zhen glared at Mu Liyue angrily, and said to the maid, "You don't have to be afraid, I'm here, no one dares to touch you." ”

The maid trembled and said, "Yes...... Miss Mu, the slave maid just brought water over to serve the princess to wash, and saw Miss Mu kill the princess and Mama with her own eyes, and since the princess got up in the morning, the slave maid has been serving on the side, and the princess did not send anyone to invite Miss Mu to have breakfast. ”

Dongfang Zhen was furious and said, "Mu Liyue, why did you kill the princess?"

"I didn't. Mu Liyue didn't explain too much, because she knew that no matter how she explained, it was useless, all this was obviously designed by Dongfang Zhen, she just didn't expect his heart to be so ruthless, Dongfang Yu'er was his biological daughter, he actually sacrificed his daughter to achieve his goal.

Dongfang Zhen seemed to have decided that it was Mu Liyue who killed Dongfang Yu'er, and shouted loudly outside the room: "Come on, take Mu Liyue for me quickly." ”

Mo Lin stretched out his hand to stop the guards from stepping forward, and arched his hand, "Your Majesty, this matter has not yet been clarified, and there are still many doubts, how can you say that Liyue killed the princess based on the words of a maid?"

Dongfang Zhen stood up and said righteously: "This maid is the maid of your Mowang Mansion, if she didn't see it with her own eyes, what reason would she have to frame Mu Liyue?"

He flicked his robe, and the emperor's majesty was fully displayed, "King Mo, it is an indisputable fact that Mu Liyue killed the princess, and I must take her away today to avenge the princess." ”

Mo Jue stood in front of Mu Liyue, "Your Majesty, I believe that Li'er will not kill the princess, and she has no reason to kill the princess, they don't know each other at all." ”

Dongfang really can't be questioned: "I must take Mu Liyue with me today, do you want to go against me?"

Mo Jue was silent, but he didn't retreat a step in front of Mu Liyue, making it clear that he wanted to defend her to the end.

"Okay, very good, I see that your Mowang Mansion is going to rebel. Dongfang Zhen laughed angrily, "Mo Lin, do you also plan to defend Mu Liyue to the end?"

Mo Lin didn't answer, but just stood beside Mo Jue and blocked Mu Liyue with him.

Mu Liyue's heart warmed slightly, she didn't expect Mo Lin to openly disagree with the emperor for her.

She sent a message to Mo Jue: "Mo Jue, it doesn't matter if Dongfang Zhen takes me away, anyway, with my current cultivation, I can run away at any time." ”

"No, what if something happens? Dongfang Zhen is cunning and treacherous, what if you accidentally fall for it?" Mo Jue resolutely rejected her suggestion, he would never gamble with Mu Liyue's life.

Dongfang Zhen saw that Mo Jue and Mo Lin were both in a posture of defending Mu Liyue, he was upset, he originally just wanted to design to control Mu Liyue in his hands, and then use her to control Mo Jue, but he didn't expect them to die to protect Mu Liyue.

However, things have developed like this, if he gives in and doesn't take Mu Liyue with him today, then he will have no chance in the future, and he will lose face if it spreads.

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth: "I will ask you again one last time, do you have to protect this murderer of the princess?"

Mo Lin didn't move, and said, "Your Majesty, Liyue is really not a murderer, please ask the Emperor to take a look." ”

Mo Jue stood in front of Mu Liyue and looked immovable.

Seeing this, Dongfang Zhen relented: "Since you are stubborn, don't blame me for being ruthless." Come and pass the order, the Mo Wangfu intends to rebel, everyone will be imprisoned, and the titles of King Mo and the prince of Mo will be abolished from now on. ”

In order to prevent them from escaping, Dongfang Zhen shackled them with the heaviest shackles, fed everyone cartilage, and guarded the other Mo family members such as Mu Liyue, Mo Jue, and Mo Lin separately.

"It's the first time I've been in a cell. Mu Liyue looked around and said happily.

As soon as the person who had finished feeding the medicine left, she sat up, shattered the shackles, and looked at the cell opposite, where the jailer had been stunned by Mu Liyue with a few silver needles.

Mo Jue also shattered the shackles and sat up, this bit of cartilage was useless to him.

Mu Liyue got up and walked to the edge of the cell door, and with a force of her hand, she opened the lock, and she lay on the outside of Mo Jue's cell and said, "Mo Jue, you look a little embarrassed?"
