C97 Arson

It had been two days since Lau Fenglan came to this manor, but she did not do anything. Mu Ruqing was putting the red plum branch that she plucked in the morning into a white porcelain bottle.

"Miss, is she planning something? She is just waiting for Miss to take the bait." Lingyue who was watching Mu Ruqing play with the red plum by the side was somewhat worried.

"Lingyue, look at this flower and it looks good?" Mu Ruqing moved the vase back and forth, "Will grandmother and younger sister like it?"

"Miss's flower planting skills are excellent. The madame will definitely like it, but Miss Liu..."

"I know what you are worried about. Don't worry, she won't be able to hold it in anymore. She's waiting. "

" Waiting for what? "

"Mu Ruqing put down the scissors and looked at Lingyue." Wait for me. If I don't use this bait, why would she take the bait? You come over... "

The more Lingyue heard, the more serious her expression became. In the end, she directly requested, "Miss, you can't. If you miss something, Miss will be ruined!"

"You don't believe me?"

"No, I believe in Miss. I just don't want Miss to take the risk. "

"Then just do as I say." Mu Ruqing was confident, "Send this plum blossom out. Remember, the peony pattern is grandma's, and the peony pattern is my sister's."

"Yes." Lingyue wanted to say something but she knew Mu Ruqing would not listen. She could only do what she told her to do.

Lau Fenglan looked closely at the red plum that Mu Ruqing sent over. It was beautiful but there was probably something that she did not know that would harm people.

"Take out the red plum." Lau Fenglan ordered Mingdie. Although Mingdie did not understand her meaning, she still obediently took it out.

Lau Fenglan looked at the bottle and confirmed that there was nothing in it before inserting the red plum back into the bottle. Smelling the fragrance of the flowers, the smell was enchanting.

"Miss, if you do not make a move, there will not be a chance once you leave the manor." Mingdie had served Lau Fenglan for so long and had also accompanied her to suffer a lot. She became more and more worried for Lau Fenglan.

"Wait, the opportunity hasn't arrived yet." Lau Fenglan straightened the bottle, "You have seen it too. There have been many designs and each time, they will be resolved by her. This is my last chance. I must ensure that nothing goes wrong. Otherwise, Princess Chu would really be in her bag. "

"However, Fourth Miss did not take any precautions these few days."

" It was precisely because of this that it proved that she was prepared. If she was on guard, then it would really be the right time to make a move. Go and take a look at her tonight."

" Yes, Miss is smart and wise. This time, she will definitely be destroyed. That Princess Chu will be Miss's."

"You can go now!" Lau Fenglan smiled proudly. She picked up the scissors and cut off the tallest and brightest one. I should be Princess Chu. Who do you think you are? You can fool uncle and aunt, but you can't fool me!

Mingdie came back and said that Mu Ruqing was very careful and did not reveal anything. She would be going back tomorrow and could not help but be a little anxious. After dinner, she personally brought Mingdie to see Mu Ruqing.

Without waiting for Lingyue to report, he directly entered the room. Mu Ruqing was being treated and she did not know what she was doing. Lau Fenglan called out, "Big Sister?"

Mu Ruqing was a little panicky and immediately turned around. She hid her hands behind her back and curled the corners of her mouth, "Little sister. Why are you here?"

"What happened to sister? Are you still angry with sister?"

"I believe you are bewitched."

Lau Fenglan smiled and sat down. She kept observing Mu Ruqing's expression, "It is just that I will be going back tomorrow. Thinking about how I will be bathing in the hot spring with elder sister today, the one in my room is not as big as elder sister's. I wonder if elder sister is willing?"

"I am afraid not. These few days, the matters have come and it is not convenient. " Mu Ruqing declined and took precautions.

"Then elder sister should not suffer the cold these few days."

"Thank you younger sister for your concern." Mu Ruqing hurriedly chased her away, "Then I won't see sister off."

"Okay, sister should rest early." Lau Fenglan went out the door and stood for a moment before she heard Mu Ruqing's voice coming from the room.

"Lingyue, close the door and return to the residence tomorrow. There must not be any trouble tonight..."

"Miss." Mingdie looked at Lau Fenglan.

"Let's go. I remember that her monthly matters are not in these few days." Lau Fenglan smiled knowingly. She had finally waited. "Let's move out tonight."

"Yes." Mingdie could not wait any longer. All of their misfortune was thanks to Mu Ruqing.

They never felt that they were wrong. They only thought that their situation was caused by Mu Ruqing. If they did not move, how would Mu Ruqing fight back?

"Miss, this is the sweet water that Miss Liu sent over." Lingyue brought in a bowl of thick sugar water.

"She really is considerate." Mu Ruqing took off the hairpin, "Bring it over for me to taste."

"Miss, there must be medicine in the sugar water."

"The medicine is not in the sugar water. She knew that I would suspect that I would not drink the sugar water, so when she came just now, the drug was already in the room. Forget it, I will not drink it. I will keep it for her to see."

"Then where is it?"

" Can you smell it? " Mu Ruqing stared at the hot spring.

"It's just that there is so much spring water. How can there be so much medicine?"

"Not much. Don't forget, this villa was recommended by her. Which room to stay in and how much spring water was needed, she had already calculated. Then she grabbed a certain amount of medicine and threw it into the spring. The drug was in the hot spring temperature. Then the drug that was released along with the fog... It's enough to stun the two of us. "

"Oh, I get it. What do you mean by sublimation?"

"That's right... Uh, like mist."

"Then we'll just pretend to faint."

"No, she will come to confirm. If we pretend to be unconscious, we will be exposed. Are you all ready? "

"Yes."

"Quickly come over and take a deep breath of this water." Mu Ruqing sat by the hot spring and waved at Lingyue.

Lingyue was still worried but she had to listen to Mu Ruqing's words.

"Miss, it's about time." Mingdie looked at Lau Fenglan who was drinking tea.

"What time is it?" Lau Fenglan put down the teacup and stood up to look outside the window.

"It's Hai hour."

"Let's go." Mingdie helped her out the door.

Mingdie went forward and knocked on the door. No one paid attention to her and pushed it again. "I can't push it open."

"Take this." Lau Fenglan handed her a dagger and Mingdie used the hilt of the dagger to insert it into the crack of the door. She used the bolt to push it open bit by bit.

When the door opened, Lau Fenglan first looked at the red sugar water and did not move a single drop. It seems like she was indeed on guard against me and it was exactly what I wanted.

"Miss, they are here." Mingdie squatted beside the hot spring and checked the breathing of the two people who fainted.

Lau Fenglan looked at their symptoms and confirmed it. She kicked Mu Ruqing and could not help but be proud, "You also have today? After tonight, Princess Chu will be mine and you will only be spurned. Uncle, aunt, and grandmother will hate you because you are a disgrace to the Prime Minister's Estate."

"Miss, I will go and inform them!" Mingdie also smiled devilishly. She had waited for this day for a long time.

"There is no hurry. I still want to say a few more words to elder sister. After all, we are sisters. We won't have the chance to talk in the future." How could Lau Fenglan bear to leave her like this? She looked at Mu Ruqing's face. She became angry and took out the dagger that opened the door earlier." I really want to give her a few cuts. Just say that she was injured by the criminals. How is it?"

The cold blade was already placed on Mu Ruqing's fair skin. Just as she was about to use force, she was interrupted by a knock on the door.

Mingdie pinched her nose and asked in a hoarse voice, "Who is it?"

"Is it Ms Lingyue? Can't you remember me?" The maid replied at the door.

"Oh, what's wrong? What's the matter this late at night?" Mingdie looked at Lau Fenglan and Lau Fenglan nodded her head.

"Nothing much. Do you still want the soup that Fourth Miss wants?"

"No need. Miss has already fallen asleep and just put out the light. Bring it back tomorrow!"

"Okay, then I will leave. It's just that Sister, why are your voices..."

"Oh, I suddenly caught a cold today, so my voice is a little hoarse!"

"Alright, then I'll be leaving first. Older sister can rest well."

"Okay." Mingdie finally let out a sigh of relief and softly asked Lau Fenglan, "Miss, you can leave now."

"Yes, you go and inform them." Lau Fenglan blew out the candle. The master and servant left.

Mingdie parted ways with Lau Fenglan in the corridor.

Lau Fenglan returned to her room and looked at the red plum blossoms. She was in a good mood. After enjoying them for a while, the plum blossoms actually fell asleep.

"Someone come, put out the fire!"

Just as Lau Fenglan fell asleep, Mu Ruqing's room was filled with fire and everyone in the manor was busy putting out the fire...
