Chapter 1302 “Revenge Plan (7)”
“First Elder also opened his mouth, if there are rumors going around again using the consort t.i.tle, then the punishment will be torture!”
In a stumble, Mu Xue nearly fell to the ground as she staggered backwards.
It’s impossible, it’s not possible!
It must be the First Elder defending that queen. He’s a dog of hers so this guard must be lying as well!
Despite what she felt inwardly, this arrogant b.i.t.c.h from the leopard tribe would never show it openly. She may be pompous and overly proud of herself, but even she knew better than to offend the one in charge right now. As such, the resentment could only be hidden in those eyes.
“Furthermore, if I find out who is the one spreading all these lies and framing the king then it’s the death penalty to that person!”
Now Mu Xue’s has lost all color as the blood drained from her face. A flash of panic quickly filled those eyes in which she only managed to cover up by hanging her head.
If these people really want to check then they will definitely get back to me as the source. I can’t let this continue! I can’t let them get their way!
The guard left and didn’t do much else after throwing this warning out there, however, it doesn’t mean others weren’t going to come over. Right as Mu Xue felt safe and raised her head again, a beautiful yet strong figure had appeared in front.
“I said so before, the king only brought us here to care for the little princess, it’s not what you a.s.sumed.” Mu Ying the older sister spoke with disapproving eyes, “And, I already promised Mother not to throw you out there.”
But so what if I don’t say anything? The fact that the king doesn’t have any intent of taking a consort is already enough. They will eventually find out who’s making the rumors without me spilling her out there.
Irritated by this, Mu Xue shoots a glare at her older sister before speaking in a low whispering voice: “It’s just that elder trying to help the queen. If the king had no intention then why did he summon us into the palace in the first place? Just wait until the king returns, then you will see!”
“And do you think you will be able to wait until that day comes?” Mu Ying didn’t get taunted and chuckled sarcastically, “First Elder is already starting to investigate the rumors. What makes you think they won’t trace the source back to you when you’ve openly said it before the public?”
Growing cold in the face, Mu Xue clearly thought of that and retorted: “Sister, don’t forget those maids who came into the palace with us are all from our tribe. Do you think they will rat me out when their family is in the hands of Father and Mother? If they so much as make a peep then it’s enough for Mother to kill them!” Her voice sounded all somber and eerie to the ear, but thanks to the departure of everyone nearby, none was able to pick this fact up.
“Or are you a.s.suming the elders in this palace are going to get involved with our tribe’s internal affair? Besides, First Elder doesn’t look like the type to randomly kill others. As long as those demons don’t point to me then what do I have to fear?”
It’s not like that old fart is going to kill every maid they brought in. If that does happen, the king won’t let him off either!
Mu Ying’s expression darkened over her younger sister’s lack of care for their own tribeswoman. “Don’t forget, there is also those two guards from that day. They also heard your speech in the open.”
Shrugging over the small detail, Mu Xue obviously didn’t think it’s an issue based on her demeanor: “Then I can just say I overheard it from someone else. First Elder only wants to find the source, he never specified who. After I get a scapegoat going then all will be good. Sister, I advise you to get out of my business, otherwise you won’t be able to escape death once I become the consort!”
Mu Ying honestly felt numb to the heart over the threat. Honestly, she’s never thought her own younger sister would be such a vicious and evil person!
“Fine, I won’t expose you Mu Xue, but don’t say I didn’t warn you… The king never said anything about taking a consort so you better pray for yourself.” Giving one last glance at this disgusting girl that was her own blood, Mu Ying was done here.
