LOL! Is this scumbag waiting for the New Year to divorce?

Chapter 241: A Nest of Smart People

In this way, the days passed one by one, and the wedding date was getting closer and closer.

The three books and six ceremonies have been completed, and all that’s left is the marriage.

Everyone was busy, except Lu Chenshuang, the person involved, who was quite idle.

Lin was busy preparing her dowry and training the servants who would follow her into the palace.

Mu Hansu hadn't come to see her alone for a long time. Except for the time when she was going to perform the three books and six ceremonies, he was nowhere to be seen at other times.

Lu Chenshuang privately scolded him for being a scumbag. He used to be very devoted to her. But now, he has not been seen for several days. This man is really not a good person. He does not cherish what he has.

So as a woman, you still have to pursue a career.

She immediately sent someone to invite Qu Ceyang, who did not hesitate to use all means to get close to Concubine Qu.

Later, after he confessed the truth to her, he sent someone to send her ten thousand taels of gold, saying it was a dowry for her.

Who can add ten thousand taels of gold to their dowry? This is obviously the medical fee for Lu Chenshuang.

Since you have been entrusted with a task, you must be loyal to it. Besides, Lu Chenshuang had already promised Qu Ceyang.

Soon Qu Ceyang arrived at the Lu family, but Lu Chenshuang’s identity was different now, so Qu Ceyang didn’t dare to act rashly anymore.

She also rarely bowed to Lu Chenshuang.

Lu Chenshuang sat on the stool, looked at her and said with a half-smile: "Why are you trying to be estranged from me?"

Qu Ceyang replied awkwardly: "You are getting married soon, so your status will be extraordinary from now on.

When I came here, my mother specifically told me not to act unruly in front of you."

Hearing this, Lu Chenshuang laughed twice and said, "So you are no longer the Qu Ceyang you used to be.

Alas, I was originally planning to go to the palace with you to pay my respects to Concubine Qu when I was free today, but now it seems there is no need for that."

Qu Ceyang's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he quickly said in a flattering manner: "Look at what you are saying, Shuang'er, my sister has asked me this several times.

But you are busy with your wedding recently, so I don’t want to disturb you.”

Lu Chenshuang heard this and said, "Since I promised you, I will naturally not forget this.

Besides, I accepted your expensive dowry gift, so I'll consider it as the consultation fee."

Upon hearing this, Qu Ceyang quickly retorted: "No, no, you can't take it as a consultation fee, that's a dowry."

Lu Chenshuang didn't understand why she had to make such a clear distinction.

But what Qu Ceyang said to himself next made Lu Chenshuang's face darken.

Qu Ceyang only muttered quietly: "My mother said that the consultation fee is free, and the dowry can make up for the cost."

Lu Chenshuang almost vomited blood when she heard this. Mrs. Qu was really shrewd. She even took her into account.

Qu Ceyang looked at Lu Chenshuang's increasingly dark face, and realized that he had said something wrong, so he quickly explained, "Shuang'er, this is all my mother's idea, it has nothing to do with me.

Don't worry, I have no plans to get married, so you don't have to worry about returning the gift."

But Lu Chenshuang looked like, "Do you think I believe it?"

Seeing that Lu Chenshuang didn't believe him, Qu Ceyang quickly spoke up and said, "Shuang'er, what I said is true. I really don't plan to get married.

What's good about getting married? Not only do you have to endure the pain of giving birth to a child, but you also have to respect your parents-in-law and serve your husband.

You see, my father is kind to my mother, but he also has seven or eight concubines in the backyard.

My mother clearly doesn't like those concubines, but she still pretends to be magnanimous.

And what about my sister? Even if she entered the palace and became a royal concubine, what would that matter?

She has worked so hard for the emperor for so many years and seems to be honored, but the emperor doesn't have her in his heart at all.

I have made up my mind that I will never get married. When I am older, I will move out and live on my own like you do. This way, I won’t be a bother to anyone.”

Lu Chenshuang really didn't expect Qu Ceyang to have such awareness. He was better than a modern person like herself.

Alas, she really likes Mu Hansu's face. Maybe she is as love-brained as the original owner.

So if Mu Hansu dared to let him down, she would have plenty of ways to deal with her.

Mu Hansu, who was very busy at this moment, suddenly shuddered.

Alas, he hadn't visited Lu Chenshuang for several days. There were simply too many things going on in the military camp.

In addition, Prince Gong intended to rebel, so he had to arrange everything before he could get married with peace of mind.

Prince Gong could rebel, but he had to do so after his wedding.

The marriage he had worked so hard to secure must not be affected in the slightest.

Mu Hansu had just finished the things at hand when Mu Qing walked in with a secret letter.

Mu Qing said, "Your Highness, there is a letter from Ganzhou via carrier pigeon."

Upon hearing this, Mu Hansu took the note from Mu Qing's hand and saw that it said "Everything has gone according to plan."

Two months ago, Mu Hansu sent people to Ganzhou to infiltrate the Ganzhou Army and had already instigated several generals to defect.

Perhaps Prince Gong did not expect his affairs to be exposed, so he did not make any arrangements in advance. In addition, he was in the capital, so it was not convenient for him to issue orders.

In fact, the generals in Ganzhou had no idea of ​​Prince Gong’s intentions, so it would be easy for them to rebel as long as they could grasp the vital points of those generals.

Mu Hansu held the note in his palm, and when he opened his hand, it had turned into powder.

Soon another secret guard came in. This was the one he sent to monitor Jing Zhaoyan.

After he came in, he bowed to Mu Hansu and said directly: "Your Majesty, Marquis Jingyang has taken action. Do you need me to take him down?"

Mu Hansu's eyes turned cold after hearing this. Jing Zhaoyan really disappointed him.

He is no longer the Marquis Jingyang who was devoted to serving the country and making great achievements.

Instead, he is a person who is opportunistic and good at scheming.

But Mu Hansu can't touch him now. Once he touches Jing Zhaoyan, it will alert the enemy. He has been planning for so long, how can he not move?

Mu Hansu waved his hand and said, "No need. Tell people to prepare for Wang Youde's funeral."

Upon hearing this, the secret guard quickly agreed.

Mu Qing also withdrew, but before leaving, he said, "Someone close to the princess sent a message saying that the princess has entered the palace."

Mu Hansu frowned when he heard this. Why did Lu Chenshuang suddenly enter the palace again?

Ever since Lu Chenshuang was plotted against by the Queen in the palace last time, she has rarely entered the palace except for paying her respects to the Queen Mother once.

Of course, it wasn’t that Lu Chenshuang was afraid, but that she was detained at home by the Lin family.

Mu Hansu never thought that someone like Lu Chenshuang was actually a good girl.

How could he know that Lu Chenshuang felt that she owed something to the Lin family. She had taken possession of the original owner's body, and it was her responsibility and obligation to be filial to the original owner.

Seeing Mu Hansu frowning, Mu Qing quickly spoke again, "The princess entered the palace with the second daughter of Prime Minister Qu's family."

Mu Hansu nodded then. The Qu family is a group of smart people, so Lu Chenshuang should be fine.
