“Indeed, the Seventh Prince has always been working hard, and his humble and polite image has also been deeply rooted in the people’s hearts.” Zhou Huaiming echoed.
If it weren’t for his subordinate’s report that the Seventh Prince had gone to the teahouse with those officials’ young masters too many times recently, he wouldn’t have discovered the Seventh Prince’s ambition.
Moreover, he had the Yan family as his backer, so it was not as if he did not have a chance of winning.
“This subordinate has failed in his duty. I really did not pay attention to the Seventh Prince.” Butler Feng quickly bowed and said.
“It’s fine. Pay more attention to him in the future and be on guard against him.”
“I understand.”
At night, Zhou Ying, who was busy harvesting wheat in her interspace, suddenly felt her heart skip a beat. After confirming that the protective talisman she had placed was broken, she immediately checked the patriarch’s house through the Mother God Temple.
After confirming that they were fine, she quickly found Magu.
As expected, Magu had already been tied up by the coachman, who was looking at the stone in his hand with a dumbfounded expression.
He couldn’t understand why the stone didn’t kill Magu. Instead, the stone was cracked.
Magu was obviously frightened as well, but she was not in the mood to care about this. Instead, she looked at the coachman and asked, “Wang Mazi, what happened to you?
“I’ve been taking care of you all these years. Even if you want my life, you have to let me know what’s going on.”
“Don’t; I’m not worthy of your care.
“As for the reason, you haven’t forgotten about the fire five nights ago, right?
“You are probably out to no good today, right?”
“I don’t understand what you’re talking about. Your house burning down has nothing to do with me.” Magu shook her head.
“Stop acting dumb. I saw your face that night. It was you who walked to my bed, knocked over the oil lamp, and set my house on fire.
“If I didn’t have a trace of consciousness and crawled out of the back window in a daze, I would have died in the sea of fire.”
When Magu heard that her nephew was not mentioned, she no longer argued with him.
Since her nephew was gone, she had nothing to worry about, so whether she died or not didn’t make any difference.
“It really is you.” As the coachman said this, his eyes sharpened. He raised the stone in his hand again and smashed it at her head with all his might.
Seeing this, Magu closed her eyes.
When Zhou Ying saw this, she quickly knocked them unconscious with her divine sense.
However, the stone still landed on Magu’s head, directly hitting her face and leaving a big bruise.
When Zhou Ying saw this, she directly took them in through the space.
She also drugged them to keep them knocked out.
After he was done with his work, Gu Chengrui saw the two people lying on the ground. He looked for Zhou Ying and asked, “Babe, who are those two people?”
“That woman is Magu, an assassin working for the Lu family.
“As for the man, he was the one who was almost burned to death. He was the coachman who sent us to the dock.”
“Oh, it’s them. What are you going to do?”
“I want to lock them up for the time being and interrogate Magu to see if I can take down the Lu family in one fell swoop.
“But where are we going to interrogate him?”
Gu Chengrui could not think of a suitable place after hearing that. After all, there were too many people at their residence. It was definitely not an appropriate place.
Also, he could not trouble King Rui with everything.
He hesitated for a moment and suggested, “Why don’t we throw them into the interspace for now? We’ll find a deserted place to interrogate them tomorrow.”
“I guess that’s the only way.” Zhou Ying responded, and the couple tied them up tightly.
Furthermore, Gu Chengrui feared they would wake up halfway, so he drugged them again.
After the couple were done with their work, they quickly left the interspace..
