My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker! Chapter 1404 - We Will Fulfill Their Death Wish

Chapter 1404: We Will Fulfill Their Death Wish

After eating lunch, Qiao Mu returned to the Eastern Palace with Mo Lian.

Because she didn’t have anything to do in the afternoon, Qiao Mu took out the bone forging pill and inspected it.

“Are you taking it right now?” Mo Lian set down the book in his hand and asked.

“Qiuqiu says that it will take three days, but I feel skeptical, so it will probably take five to seven days.”

“Sure. After you finish forging your bones, there won’t be problems after that.” Mo Lian would not stop her from bettering her capabilities. In fact, he fully supported her.

Qiao Mu nodded. “After I finish forging my bones, I hope that my body at least won’t be so vulnerable when I battle people in the spiritual realm next time, spitting blood out after only getting struck twice.”

“Qiaoqiao, you will definitely succeed.” Mo Lian nodded with a smile. “Come, I’ll bring you to the cultivation room in the back room of the bedchamber for closed-door cultivation.”

Qiao Mu gave a mhm and got up. He then led her to the secret room while holding her hand.

As the stone wall slid back to its original position, Mo Lian smiled and turned to walk out of the secret room.

At this time, Huifeng flipped inside from the window and said while cupping his hands, “Your Highness.”

“How is the investigation going.”

Huifeng nodded. “According to the information that the Hidden Night Pavilion has collected during the past few days, we are basically able to confirm that the person who arranged for a group of local thugs to block the way and create a disturbance on the day of Your Highness’s wedding is precisely Commandery Princess Yi’an.”

A harsh glint flashed past Mo Lian’s eyes.

It was this crazy woman as expected! She actually dared to sabotage his big day!

It was simply hateful!

“Your Highness.”

Mo Lian ordered coldly, “Continue.”

“But that day when the crown prince consort was serving tea, the person who bought off the royal maid Caiqin to poison Her Majesty the Queen Dowager was not Commandery Princess Yi’an.” Huifeng stated, “But Her Majesty the Queen Dowager seems to wholeheartedly think that Commandery Princess Yi’an was the one behind the poison.”

“Was it the Va.s.sal King of An’nan’s Estate’s handiwork?”

Huifeng nodded. “That is correct. There is a maidservant in Va.s.sal King Consort Wu’s Estate who is royal maid Caiqin’s sister by blood. After controlling this person, the Va.s.sal King Consort of An’nan has been secretly giving Caiqin orders.”

Mo Lian snickered. “There is no need to spell out the truth. Just let Grandmother believe that this thankless wretch did it.”

In this way, Grandmother would not get softhearted and hamper him from taking action against them.

Before dusk, the crown prince went to the king’s royal study and talked with his old father about something.

That very night when dusk fell, a sudden royal betrothal edict was sent to the Va.s.sal King of An’nan’s Estate.

The edict started with praising the Va.s.sal Prince of An’nan profusely, both directly and indirectly. It then stated that as the va.s.sal prince had already reached marriageable age, the king would betrothe Commandery Princess Yi’an to him as his legal wife and so on.

This royal edict came so out of the blue that it caught them unprepared, but the Va.s.sal Prince of An’nan was delighted.

Previously, he had been contemplating how to have his father to beseech the king for a royal betrothal edict. He did not expect for the royal edict he was hoping for to come like this. Although it did come suddenly, it did not impede him from achieving his goal at all.

The Va.s.sal Prince of An’nan, Chou Fu, was ecstatic, and he led his whole family in kneeling and respectfully receiving the royal edict.

Yet the Va.s.sal King and Va.s.sal King Consort of An’nan looked at each other in dismay, confused as to how strangely this royal edict was issued.

When Huifeng reported this event to the crown prince, the crown prince was resting inside the study’s part.i.tioned bedroom. He merely gave a nod after hearing the report.

As he was the one who went to beseech for the royal betrothal edict, he was already aware.

“But why did the crown prince fulfill the Va.s.sal Prince of An’nan’s wish?” Huifeng could not make heads or tails of it. It had to be known that the Va.s.sal Prince of An’nan had always been devoted to Commandery Princess Yi’an’s affairs. It had already gotten to the point of expressing his wish to marry Yi’an.

However, the crown prince sn.i.g.g.e.red. “We will fulfill their death wish.”
