Chapter 147 Playing the Pig to Eat the Tiger (5)
Wei Ning smiled secretly, and really wanted to praise the young marquis for his courage. He would rather kill three thousand people by mistake than let one person go!
"Hmph, Mu Tianhua, you dare to go against our Duanmu family. You must be tired of living!" Duanmu Lei said viciously.
Wei Ning suddenly remembered something and asked, "They dare to be so arrogant, aren't they afraid that the Regent will be angry? The Regent's mother seems to be surnamed Duanmu."
Duanmu Lei suddenly frowned and shouted, "Don't talk nonsense!"
Wei Ning was startled, pretending to be startled, and asked anxiously, "What's wrong ?"
"Don't mention anything about the Regent's mother, especially in front of him."
Although he doesn't care about the prince's life or death, he cannot give up this chess piece now.
Wei Ning nodded, feeling that things were increasingly strange.
On the surface, the Duanmu family does have the support of the Regent, but if that’s the case, would the Fourth Prince dare to be so arrogant?
She vaguely felt that something was wrong, but since Duanmu Lei didn't say anything, there was nothing she could do.
However, seeing Duanmu Lei's cautious expression, Wei Ning had an idea that maybe she could take advantage of this matter.
After making up his mind, Wei Ning temporarily stopped caring about the Duanmu family's affairs.
Anyway, what she should do is similar. The Duanmu family is a big tree with tangled roots that cannot be easily shaken.
But she gave the Fourth Prince a lot of top-secret information. Given his sinister and cunning character, even if he couldn't shake the big tree, he would definitely break off a few branches!
Now that Mu Tianhua no longer has the support of the Sun family, of course he has to give up and focus on dealing with the Duanmu family. Otherwise, even if he ascends the throne, he will be constrained!
The only thing they can count on is the regent's appreciation and the unknown contracted beast.
The Marquis of Zhenwei had lost a son, and his family's business ran into trouble one after another. The most terrifying thing was that several generals he had placed around the Regent were discovered!
He had always maintained secret dealings with these people, never meeting them in person, and always communicating through secret correspondence.
But he didn't expect that those letters would fall into Mu Tianhua's hands!
Marquis Zhenwei was furious and broke out in a cold sweat.
Duanmu Lei made a big fuss about the traitor again, and Marquis Zhenwei became suspicious. Only he and a few other people knew about the existence of those top-secret letters, so these trusted people were all suspected and executed by him.
"Humph! You can't trust anyone! If you dare to betray me, you will know how heavy the price will be!"
Marquis Zhenwei was so angry that he couldn't stand up. He was gasping for breath and couldn't understand why he was betrayed.
Those people were all trained by him. They have always been loyal to him and have never made any mistakes.
Why would a traitor appear at this time?
He was born with a suspicious nature , and would not allow it even if it was just hearsay, let alone a series of fatal blows?
"Dad, what should we do now?"
The person they placed next to the Regent was discovered, and the thought of it makes one break out in a cold sweat.
"There has been no movement from the Regent yet, so we can't be impatient." Marquis Zhenwei said slowly, looking a little listless, no longer as majestic as he was in the past few days.
Everyone knows what happens if you offend the Regent in the Qinglong Empire...
Outside the study, a dark figure left silently. No matter how tight the defense was, it was impossible to stop her.
