Chapter 3931 4.1531 The Tragic Mu Jingfeng

Qiao Mu had only used a bit of her divine sense to probe; it wouldn't fundamentally harm her.

Seeing Mu Qingya's delicate, fragile demeanor at this moment, Qiao Mu felt a bit tired of it.

Ordinary people like Mu Qingya simply didn't have a Sea of Consciousness, so probing wouldn't reveal anything anyway.

Qiao Mu secretly chided herself for being foolish, then withdrew her divine sense. She glanced indifferently at Mu Qingya and said, "Madam should take care of her health."

"Thank you for your concern, Crown Princess," Mu Qingya curtsied, her expression gentle, tinged with a hint of bitterness.

Qiao Mu averted her gaze and turned to the Old Master. "It's getting late today. I imagine the Mu family still needs to settle down properly."

She asked indifferently, "How are things looking outside?"

A Purple Forest Guard immediately came to report, "Crown Princess, there are quite a number of people. The physicians outside still have half the inspections left."

"Then let them continue at their pace, and send them back when they're done," Qiao Mu said, rising and walking out. "This Crown Princess is returning to the palace now."

The Crown Prince should be back from his meeting with the Emperor by now. She still needed to rush back to have lunch with her husband!

"Farewell, Crown Princess," the Mu family members stood up to see her off.

The little Crown Princess dashed out, her steps quick all the way.

Li Ye followed behind her and asked, "Does the Crown Princess have someone suspicious in mind?"

"Aside from Third Uncle and the old man, everyone else seems suspicious," Qiao Mu pouted.

Xiaoye: ...

The little Crown Princess truly held a strong dislike for the Mu family.

"We've received news that the Mu family's eldest young master should be returning to the capital tomorrow."

"Oh, then let Big Brother investigate thoroughly when he gets back," Qiao Mu frowned. "My intuition tells me that the Second Branch might be problematic."

Although she hadn't found any black crystals planted by Heavenly Fortune in the heads of Mu Jingxing's family, perhaps Mu Jingxing didn't need to be modified, or perhaps... Mu Jingxing and his family hadn't reached the point of modification yet?

That remained unknown.

Or perhaps, was it the disappeared Mu Jingfeng who was behind it? Who knew! The Mu family's affairs should be resolved by their own family.

She had done her part!

The little Crown Princess hummed softly, quickly hopped into the carriage, and said, "Let's go back."

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Mu Jingfeng, half-paralyzed, struggled to crawl to the iron door. He violently pounded on it, roaring, "Let me out, quickly let me out! I've told you everything you want to know! What more do you want? Mu Qingya, is it you, Mu Qingya? Is it you, you bitch, you bitch, you bitch!"

He roared furiously, but the iron door unexpectedly opened. A long leg stepped in, treading on his face, and walked in with a giggle.

Mu Jingfeng instantly almost fainted from rage, his whole body trembling with hatred.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, the dignified Mu family head, how did you end up in such a state?"

The taunting voice reached Mu Jingfeng's ears, pushing him to the brink of fury. He furiously smashed the ground with his left fist.

Due to his blocked meridians, half of his body couldn't move, and his other hand was now also crippled.

"Hahaha," the woman twisted her body and stepped forward, her pale, tender foot suddenly pressing on Mu Jingfeng's chest.

Mu Jingfeng followed the red silk ribbon tied to her chest upwards, seeing a fair, exquisite face with meticulously applied makeup.

"Oh, my poor Mu family head, oh no, I mean the former family head," the woman stomped hard on his body, pressing her foot onto him.
